Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] BETA: piCorePlayer6.0.0 - PI4 support
There is no 100% certain place that it should be. Some people do not like having LMS (or the system it is running on) being able to write to the place where the music is stored to reduce the possibility of something going horribly wrong and a carefully created (but not backed up) collection gets destroyed (at least I assume that is the reason). Also - if the music is stored on a NAS and LMS is running somewhere else (e.g. RPi) then having the cache over a network link may well make things slower. Having the cache on the local SD card where LMS is booted is the default for pCP so is probably how it is set for many installations. The fear there is that either the SD card is too small to hold the database files that LMS uses (could easily be multiple GB when there is a lot of artwork/artists along with plugins that fetch and store extra info) or that having frequent writes to the SD card (LMS writes data back to the card for logging and current playlist) might reduce the lifetime of the card.

Ok thanks Paul. So, I have to decide what is the more important for me, my SD Card or my music collection (even if I have two backups). I didn't realize that the database could reach multiple of GB.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: piCorePlayer 5.0.0
I'm running PCP on a Raspberry Pi 3, connected via ethernet and wifi. It's used as an LMS server rather than as a player, and music is stored on a WD My Cloud NAS. I'm still running version 3.2 because generally speaking it works so reliably I haven't found the need to upgrade although am happy to do so if it will help with this issue! Unfortunately we've been getting regular power cuts recently. When power is restored, PCP / LMS restarts quicker than either our internet router or the NAS. This means that PCP fails to set its time, and also fails to restore the CIFS mount of the NAS. (And if we don't notice this, then when you try to play music via LMS, it doesn't find the files, and removes them from the library, necessitating an annoying library rescan.) What's the best way to fix this? Seems like the options would be either to delay boot after an unexpected shutdown, or to keep trying for NTP and the network filesystem if they're not available at first. I don't know how to do either of these! I feel sure this must have been covered somewhere so apologies if this is repetitive! harry's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29452 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

I was originally only planning on using this as an LMS / file server but it would be a nice bonus to have working audio out too. I've learned a lot working on this. One thing that initially almost made me give up was issues I had with Alpine's apk package manager. It took me a while to get to the point where I had a bootable base system and then the one application that I wanted to work correctly, the package manager, didn't. If you are interested, you can read about it here: https://lists.alpinelinux.org/~alpine/apk-tools Subject is "APK Package Name Issue on armel port". The developers were great and commited some patches to fix the problem (fixes included in the tar ball you got.) It was down to unaligned memory access, which after I knew what I was looking for I was able to read up about but I wouldn't have figured it out without the Alpine dev diagnosing it. I haven't quite figure out why yet, but, Alpine on the pi zero w defaults /proc/cpu/alignment to 2 (fixup) and I don't even think unaligned access is an issue on that architecture (not sure) but on the armel port I'm working on it was defaulting to 0 (ignore) which basically caused all the weird stuff with the package manager. I'm setting alignment=2 now as a kernel boot param, even though they fixed it in apk's code, just in case there are other apps that might cause problems. I tried to convince the guys over at the doozan forum where they were working on this device (I used the .dts and kernel config there as a starting point) that it was a potential problem on their Debian loads but I don't think I was able to get my point across. Not even 100% sure I'm right but I think I am.

So I cleaned the 40 pins connector and the 40 pins of the DAC with alcohol (dangerous to drink!). And after renewed connection: a green led on the DAC starts burning (I had not seen before).
