Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Any Ubuntu 16.04 experiences...? Thoughts?
That's good news ; I am likely to install 16.04 later this coming week. Did you have any problem with any plugins? I have several of Erland's plugins such as Trackstat,Dynamic Libraries,Multilibraries to name a few.

Thanks Ralphy and Julf Got it working. Needs libexpat1-dev as well.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 2.00
I just got Shairport working perfectly on my IQAudio Pi-DAC+ on a
Raspberry Pi 3 running piCorePlayer 2.04. There were two key things
that needed to be done:
Start Shairport-sync with a "-c Digital" option to operate the hardware
volume control on the DAC.
Turn off the WiFi power management on the Rasbperry Pi 3 with "sudo
iwconfig wlan0 power off". Before discovering this I would start
getting dropped packets after 3 or 4 minutes and eventually the
Shairport stream would get backed up and had to restart.
Thanks to Mike Brady for helping me debug the Shairport issue!
While there might be a better fix for now, I used the 3 startup commands
in piCorePlayer's Tweaks -> User Commands to hack up the startup to kill
Shairport, and then restart it with the correct parameters. Having
turned of WiFi power management and then doing a Save settings, the
power management is off after a reboot.
sudo kill -9 $(ps -e | grep shairport-sync | awk '{print $1}')
sudo rm /usr/local/var/run/shairport-sync.pid
/mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/shairport-sync -a piCorePlayer -o alsa -S soxr -d -D
-R -- -d hw:CARD=IQaudIODAC -c Digital

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Any Ubuntu 16.04 experiences...? Thoughts?
Other cool stuff - unlike in 12.04 LTS you don't seem to have to install advanced media codec packages in 16.04, they seem all packaged in from what I can tell. Furthermore 16.04 doesn't seem you to require to fuss around with fstab to correctly mount drives, the standard "Disks" program offers a graphical interface to mount drives on startup. Samba also auto-installs when you say you want to share a drive in a Windows environment. Cool stuff. So when it becomes generally available, I'd still wait a few weeks if you want to make sure it's rock solid - but I'd definitely totally recommend it. For Linux newbies it is most definitely a much more user friendly package. Can't comment on 14.04 because I jumped straight to 16.04 to 12.04. ...pablo Server: Virtual Machine (on VMware Player) running Ubuntu 12.04 + LMS 7.7.5 System: SB Touch --optical->- Benchmark DAC2HGC --AnalysisPlus Oval Copper XLR->- NAD M22 Power Amp --AnalysisPlus Black Mesh Oval->- Totem Element Fire Other Rooms: 2x SB Boom; 1x SB Radio; 1x SB Classic-> NAD D7050 -> Totem DreamCatcher + Velodyne Minivee Sub Computer audio: workstation --USB->- audioengine D1 -> Grado PS500e/Shure 1540 pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105350 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] PicorePlayer and LMS - how to get a MONO downmix?
Hello Greg,
thanks for pointing me to the right direction. The beta option is
working fine if you don't use the equalizer. As I need the equalizer to
adjust the frequency response of my "Sonos remake", I had to finetune
the asound.conf.
The down-mix is working well now! All I have to do now is to un-comment
the five lines at the end of the asound.conf.
It would be great now to switch between a mono and a stereo-setup
without editing the asound.conf via SSH. Is there a way to do that in a
more clever way? The other option is to just have two SD cards (one for
mono and one for stereo).
Thanks for your ideas and comments.
Nick

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: JiveLite - cut down squeezebox control application
Hi All Has anyone got a howto on how to put jivelite on a intel debian linux system ? I have an old laptop which I want to make into a digital picture frame running Jivelite. I want to select one of my Pcp2.04 systems as the "Player" and have Jivelite display "Now playing" when the Pcp system is playing and the "Image" screensaver when not. I have done a search for this but can only find installations for RPi and Cubietruck (done by me with help from Ralphy) Any help would be appreciated !
