Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] LMS won't access \media folder
It is usually a permission issue
Ownership of the folder/files needs may need to be changed. You can try
this it has worked for me on new installs:
Here's one for anyone struggling with Linux
file
permissions.
It is run from a terminal window in the main folder housing your
music collection. Basically it does two things: 1) ensures all folders
and files are owned by your user account; 2) makes all directories and
files r/w to your account and read only to all others

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce piCorePlayer 3.20
I switched over from running LMS on my aging ReadyNAS Duo v2 to pCP on a Pi3 (leaving the music files on the NAS). Nearly every step of the scan (incl. artist artwork processing) is about twice as fast as before. Except for the actual scan where most likely network I/O is limiting. The web UI is much snappier. Setup was easy as pie. And it does run some helpers which would fail on the ReadyNAS. Excellent job, guys! In addition to LMS duties it runs JiveLite using the HD Grid Skin to display information on a spare screen I had sitting around :-) One question: I decided to set the db memory parameter to "Maximum", expecting the little device to crash during the scan. But it run just fine. zswap seems to be enabled by default now?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce piCorePlayer 3.20
I performed a lot of tests and finally I am posting the results. Keep in mind that I am using Rpi\Rpi2\Rpi3 + Raspbian + pure MPD + USB DAC since years and I never experienced any problems, but I was looking to add a touch\LCD display, so i got the official Raspberry 7'' touch LCD and switched to Volumio, RuneAudio, pCP, etc. With pure MPD, even with very high resolution up to 384 kHz \ 24 bit, the sound was always perfect, then I started to add the LCD \ Touch. Of course with pure MPD, even with the LCD, the sound was perfect, but not with pCP :-( Two main issues with pCP: 1) the WiFi is unstable and the performance poor with pCP 3.20. With the older 3.11 performances always poor, but at least was stable. Even if I avoid using channels 12 and higher, even if thw built in WiFi connects at 54 Mpbs, performances are very poor and at least 5 times worst than with Raspbian. I suppose it is a driver problem. Anyway, with the wired Ethernet, pCP sounds perfect. 2) After being sure pCP 3.20 was working very fine with the wired Ethernet, with a fresh SD card just imaged from scratch, I installed Jivelite. Now playing any high resolution audio will produce randomic noise (pops, glitches, and scratches) during the playback The higher the resolution, the more frequent the noise. Increasing the buffer improve very little the performances, but the problem is still present. Loading the FLAC \ PCM files from the local SD card or from a USB media makes NO differences versus lodading from the NAS Playing with the LCD \ touch during the playback, will produce immediately noise in the audio. For example, if I change the volume Anyway, leaving the LCD un-touched, noise is still present. Even controlling the player from the web browser. Any idea how to work out this problem? Any suggestion?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: JiveLite - cut down squeezebox control application

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: JiveLite - cut down squeezebox control application
Thank you for your fast answer. I am an old Touch user and I know vu-meters are only available when the player is the touch, so yes, JiveLite is running on the Orange Pi One which is also the player. There is something like an attempt to render graphic things, but nothing clear is visible, it sounds like a graphic error. In my side I wrote a very little python script to manage LCD 16x2 or 20x4 on the I2C especially for the Orange Pi Zero (it is also working for the Raspberry) because it was harder (so more fun) when you have more or less no documentation, for the Orange Pi Zero, and you have to discover by yourself. Looking at JiveLite running gives me some ideas for my script!

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: JiveLite - cut down squeezebox control application
- I have deselected some options (like "Artwork") in the "NowPlaying" menu and then the options are no more here in the menu. Is there any way to see them back? The choices in this menu depend on the skin used. The one you're using doesn't offer any options. - seems in the 1920x1080 some buttons (next previous volume+/-) are no more here when playing : is it a "functionality"? Rather lack there of :-). That skin imho was designed with the remote control in mind, not to be used on eg. a touch screen. Not all buttons can be navigated to using a remote. Therefore they're not there. Does the build you're using offer other Grid Skins? If so, you might be able to tweak them to use your native resolution instead of the HD Grid Skins: Set JL_SCREEN_WIDTH and JL_SCREEN_HEIGHT environment variables to your resolution. Would that work? - vu meter and sound analyzer are not working (but maybe I have to install other stuff / libs?), any idea? AFAIK they're only available if squeezelite is running on the same computer. - I installed JiveLite "the hard way": following the instructions on the first page, I knew that google code closed and I knew JiveLite was on github, so I changed the git clone address. But why do you not change the instructions directly on the first page of this thread? Triode, who created JiveLite and did that posting, has left the community a few years ago.
