Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite for piCorePlayer
I know there is a 'Now Playing' button on the top right (I'm using PCP + Jivelite with the official 7" screen) but I'm using JustBoom DAC cards and so I bought the JustBoom Smart Remote. This works superbly; however it doesn;t seem to allow navigation to the NBow Playing button, so if it Just press the Home button twice to get to NP.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite for piCorePlayer
... to add a 'Now Playing' menu item, so that it can be added to the home screen?

This works superbly; however it doesn;t seem to allow navigation to the NBow Playing button, so if it were a standard menu item that I could just add to the top of the home screen, then i could select it. I've had a browse round and searched various threads, but the answer hasn't made itself obvious to me!! Any help or suggestions appreciated!

To my modest opinion, the sound output would be below what should be a minimum. I do experiment with a 2x2Watt Digital amp connected to Squeezelite and it is adequate for my needs , even in an portable set in my garden. But you need a pair of reasonable efficient speakers to use that. The build in single 1 watt speaker, could suffice for gaming and a clock alarm, but is unlikely to please you with music. You could push an LMS and some storage into a pizero set, but it will not perform fast, and a soft AP needs to run too... BTW the zero has no standard audio out, So I am wondering what they use in the poco.

Just_Colin wrote: > There is no option to overclock with the pi2. > To my knowledge there are options to push the pi2 to higher performance; https://haydenjames.io/raspberry-pi-2-overclock/ might help you . Or test with a pi3B if you have that option. And reading al your tests to exclude possible causes, the transport of data towards the USB device* could be* your problem. With high data rates, and relative slow transport you are easy to fall short in the buffering department. I do experience this with synchronised wifi players and HD audio files. ( but no complaints, I know I am pushing into the known risk zone ) Playing the same audio in the same set of players but through MP3 does remove the issue. Perhaps your WooAudio USB DAC has a bit less local buffering, and is more prone to this just not fast enough transport. Jivelite might steal a few CPU cycles now and then during USB transport cycles, I am not sure. Also transport to the display might interrupt other tasks But there are enough people here that can comment on my hypothese. An other suggestion , while we wait on future further optimised USB routines, Test with audio files on the SD card. Reading from Network or USB memory does need reads from usb and writes to usb devices, hence double USB transport. It might support my hypotheses, and give us more insight. And you could eliminate the LCD , and test jivelite over HDMI or Composite Video.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] LMS without perl ?
Running piCorePlayer does not remove the need for LMS - but if you use the web-based menu system in pCP to install LMS within pCP then you remove the problem you are facing with installing LMS on a device that has 3rd-party updates messing up/improving your Perl set-up since the pCP team would not (at least no intentionally) release an update that breaks LMS.

Have you compiled picoreplayer for a non rasp's computer ? I thought it was in the "core" and not something to reput LMS... thank you very much for the info.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] LMS without perl ?
In picoreplayer you can install the complete LMS with all bells and whistles . It's not preinstalled in the image but some click and point options in the PCP web gui and LMS installs. Running a VM is also neat ( I do that ) just pick a more stable distro and run in virtualbox or something .

[SlimDevices: Unix] LMS without perl ?
Hello, with all perl upgrade I got problem with LMS not supporting the new released perl and my distro (arch) change it "often". I don't need any special feature of LMS, only to access the directory structure of my sound files from my squeezebox radio. I look at picoreplayer which seems to have an LMS replacement feature (not certain) and also a docker solution https://hub.docker.com/r/gfjardim/logitechmediaserver/ which date two years back but could do the job. Anyone got a suggestion of a reliable solution ? Thank you very much.
