Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] BETA: piCorePlayer6.0.0 - PI4 support

2020-01-09 Thread sckramer


Hi! Minor consistency thing: on the main LMS page the button: [Configure
LMS] does not go directly to LMS Server Settings (it goes to the LMS web
player) --> I always expect it to go there and have to double hop, could
you match the text/behavior of button: [LMS Settings] in the Nightly
Update section? 

Then maybe add a 2nd button going to the LMS web player?

Thanks!

If you don’t have local music, that message is fine.And that BT log
looks better.   Perhaps you are rebooting both at the same time.   Make
sure the server stay up most of the time.or powers up first before
the clients.

Hmm. That seems significantly better, in that the bluetooth page allows
me to discover and pair with a speaker, but the "Bluetooth" option has
now disappeared from the audio output options and now Squeezelite seems
to fail to run. I'm still looking for the debug logs on that, but if I
had to guess I think it's something to do with the fact that the pairing
connection is lost after rebooting PCP. I'll continue poking about
because it seems so close to being perfect!

The disconnect is from your speaker disconnecting the sco channel.  That
is fine, pCP does not use the sco channel.  We only use a2dp.

Where is your LMS running, the log is showing that the LMS server is not

I have piCorePlayer running on a Rasp Pi 3. I have LMS running on it, I
also have a 500GB USB SSD drive connected that is SAMBA served. I use
dbPowerAmp on my Windows PC to rip CDs to the SSD on the RPI and the RPI
has a Allo Spdif board on it that feeds a DAC. It also acts via the
network as a server to another RPI with an Allo Spdif board (no disk)
that feeds it music file remotely. The music on both systems sounds
awesome and the system is super snappy, I don't see a difference in the
system with the disk locally attached or remotely with the system
attached via a wireless network.

I ordered a RPI 4 and am waiting for piCorePlayer to officially support
the RPI 4 as I want to add disk mirroring to the system that has the SSD
mounted on it for reliability. SSDs are reliable but I would hate to
have to rip all those CDs again. I also want to add a built in display
for the system with the disks that has a touch screen. I need the extra
memory of the RPI 4 to do all of that but I am super satisfied with the
setup. The only glitch that I have is that if my wireless goes down the
remote system gets a little confused sometimes even the local RPI but
its not to hard to reset. Good luck with your setup, I really love
piCorePlayer and can't wait for it to be ported to the RPI 4. Regards

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 3.5.0

2020-01-09 Thread davis


Hi,


I've just installed piCorePlayer v5.0.0 on an rpi0w, and I thought I'd
try out a Bluetooth connection while I wait for the DAC to arrive. I
know it's experimental, and beta, and that's completely understood.
However, when I try to scan for devices, it simply shows the line "[
INFO ] Scanning for Bluetooth Devices, make sure device is in pair
mode..." and doesn't actually show any scan results. The "pair"
dropdown-list remains empty too.

I took a look, and I /think/ this is because the WebUI relies on the
utility "bluetoothctl" (called from /usr/local/bin/pcp-bt-functions),
which in turn relies on libreadline.so.8. I don't think this is
installed, or similar, because when I try to run "bluetoothctl" manually
from an ssh session I get: "bluetoothctl: error while loading shared
libraries: libreadline.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory". I did try installing the readline package from the
repo (which took some reading about TCB's packaging!) but it says it was
already installed.

I know the bluetooth hardware is working, because I can use "hcitool
scan" and see the speakers I'm trying to pair with.

Does this make any kind of sense? Can I add the device manually,
bypassing bluetoothctl?

(great project anyway; sadly a couple of my squeezeboxes died so I'm
building their replacements)

I'm making negative progress. I had been running the latest pCP for a
while with occasional glitches. 
Now with a fresh build, I have run into 2 issues. First, LMS does not
show my BT connected BOOM2 speaker as a player. While futzing with that,
after a reboot or 2, now Squeezelite is not running. Restarting,
updating Squeezelite, rebooting all result in the same 'not running'
status.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

An option could be to write a driver for that display for LCDproc, then
you could maybe use slimmer as slimmer uses LCDproc.



does the all-black SB sound better than the white SB?

show actual playing info on this display. I also have some buttons and
ir installed to controll the player "headless" with sbpd and lirc. It is

Now I wonder if it is possible to use the OLED Display to show a

Any suggestions for necessary software components and configuration?

Ok. Thanks.

I think my LMS config is already covered by having 'set lms data' to the
usb drive, and the main picoreplayer config can be covered (for now) by
just taking an 
image of the sdcard via dd under linux. 

And I'll look forward to the new changes with interest :-)

Hi

I'm using beta 6 v7 on a pi4, with picoreplayer on the sd card and lms
stuff on a usb flash drive. There used to be a 'save to usb' option on
the main page, but it is either gone or moved in v6.

I want an external copy of my config, for when beta 7 moves to beta 8 or
to release, as the in-situ upgrade option hints I will loose everything
and get a fresh install.

(Or is it sufficient to take my own copy of  'mydata.tgz' and restore it
back to the sd card after an upgrade? - is this recommended?)

Hello

I understand well. I was looking for some ideas where to find/dig. I'm
pretty sure it's behind TS_LIB calibration.
PiCore TS_LIB tools version has been compiled with limited debug option.


I was ready to go further based on on our ideas where to investiguate.

Hi Thomas,

I saw your post and as Paul stated we don't have the hardware so
troubleshooting is near impossible.  We support the official rpi 7"

Granted it's more expensive, but there are so many variations of the

working.
