Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Howto create a linux kernel IR remote keytable for Jivelite on piCorePlayer 5
I've just finished setting this up and it's working great with a generic 17 key remote. I did try it with another remote with more buttons but it just did not work, it appeared as 'necx' protocol, whatever that is! So for anyone else trying to get this working, try a different remote if it doesn't work at first. :cool: Also, is it possible to have a remote button that cycles thru the different display modes in the 'now playing' screen, so it goes to VU meter, then album cover, etc.?

For a DSD capable DAC, you should always use the hw: prefix in the output settings -o device field. If you still experience the occasional dropout or "skip" in the audio; set ALSA buffer time to 16384 and ALSA period 4096 but *only if the DAC is connected via USB*. 27883 +---+ |Filename: set.png | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=27883| +---+ Ralphy *1*-Touch, *5*-Classics, *3*-Booms, *1*-UE Radio 'Squeezebox client builds' (https://sourceforge.net/projects/lmsclients/files/) 'donations' (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_donations=LL5P6365KQEXN=CA_name=Squeezebox%20client%20builds_code=USD=PP%2dDonationsBF%3abtn_donate_SM%2egif%3aNonHosted) always appreciated. ralphy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3484 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110642 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Thanks, I did't think to check card control, I've disabled onboard sound
now. :)
Also, I may have a solution to the whole log file filling up memory
problem.
This shellscript monitors the size of the logfile then truncates it if
it gets too large:
Code:
# Log Monitor - Used to monitor the size of a logfile
# Will truncate log file if it gets too large
# Start of script
# Set max size of logfile here, in bytes. Default = 1 Megabyte
MAXSIZE="1048576"
# Delete this file if you want script to stop running
RUNFILE="/tmp/log_monitor"
touch "$RUNFILE"
# Log file to monitor
LOGFILE="/var/log/pcp_squeezelite.log"
while [ -f "$RUNFILE" ]; do
# Get filesize in bytes
LOGSIZE=$(ls "$LOGFILE" -l | awk '{print $5}')
# Compare
if [ "$LOGSIZE" -gt "$MAXSIZE" ]; then
echo "Filesize $LOGSIZE is too large, truncating at $(date)" | tee "$LOGFILE"
else
echo "Filesize $LOGSIZE is OK"
fi
# Wait 1 min
sleep 60
done
exit 0
# End of script
I've added it to my $HOME dir, called it 'log_monitor.sh' and load it on
boot using the User command setting:
/home/tc/log_monitor.sh
Adjust MAXSIZE to however large you want to log file to get before it
gets truncated.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Random Mix on PiCorePlayer
My old server used to start a mix instantly but the Pi server takes about 7 seconds to start playback this is with a library of about 18,000. What kind of mix? What UI are you using? And what i your database memory setting (Settings/Advanced/Performance)? -- Michael ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Random Mix on PiCorePlayer
Thanks Greg This is on a RPI3B+ but my SSD is currently in a usb caddy. When my proper mounting board finally arrives it will have a connector for additional power for the SSD so I'll give that a go.
