Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: piCorePlayer 6.0.0
Hi, I couldn't find an answer searching with google so I thought I'd ask here. pCP 6.0 RPi Zero W LMS 8.0 on separate computer (Linux) DSDplayer plugin enabled DAC: Topping D30 Using the pCP GUI I have added -D to the various options on the Squeezelite settings tab. The Device supports DSD/DoP is empty. Removing the -D gives me no sound even though LMS says the file is playing. pCP plays the file but it is way too loud and the volume slider does nothing (I am not using 100% output in LMS). Where have I gone wrong? My squeezelite command string is: Code: /usr/local/bin/squeezelite -n "Living Room" -o front:CARD=D30,DEV=0 -a 160:4::1: -D This string actually worked with no problem when this DAC was hooked to a RPi 2. Any help would be appreciated. radsfaninlv's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=65928 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111787 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: piCorePlayer 6.0.0
Has anyone else been having issues with shairport-sync disappearing from the local network since the package was upgraded to 3.3.6? It will start and accept connections on a fresh boot, but if its left to idle itll drop off the network. Squeezelite keeps going no matter what, but shairport has been almost unusable recently. Im crossposting this from issue 995 on the shairport-sync repo. Im experiencing pretty much this same behavior with shairport-sync on a Pi 3A+ with piCorePlayer 6.0.0; the distro maintainer upgraded the package to 3.3.6 around the end of March. pCP doesnt have avahi (and trying to install it just threw me into dependency hell) so I cant see if the broadcast is still going on the Pis side of things. Network-wise Im using openwrt stable 19.07. The Pi receives a static DHCP lease from the router. The Pi and my iDevices are on wifi. Ive tried disabling and re-enabling IGMP snooping as its reputed to affect multicast, no change either way. Ive even tried hardcoding an avahi.hosts file entry pointing at the Pi. The only thing that really seems to work is rebooting the Pi and connecting to Shairport as soon as it appears. If the process is left idle after starting or if playback stops for more than a few minutes or the connection is otherwise interrupted itll disappear from the local domain and doesnt rebroadcast. The port does appear to still be claimed; if I SSH in and run shairport-sync -v itll complain that theres already something listening on the port and exit. Im going to cross post this to the pCP discussion thread and see if anyone there has any ideas. thetyrantcbass's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70097 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111787 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Hi, first, thanks for pCP, it's really cool :) So, I have a piCore on a RPiZW, and the latest update does not work: my LMS is not auto discoverable (behind a firewall and all), and since the bt daemon starts squeezelite without taking the IP address set in the main options into account, it does not find it. I had to patch pcp-bt-speaker-daemon.py (ugly patch) to hardcode the IP and now it works. On a related note, where is the source code for pCP ?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Overlay for DAC audiophonics i-sabre ES9023 in PcP 6.0.0?
@ truscellino > cheers for kind info, very helpful and interesting! Funny how knowledge just leads to more question ...:-D Ok after some "research" I now actually have a specific question ;-) :-), but first I just want to make one thing clear. I'm by no means nowhere near some sort of electronics engineer or expert! Just guessing here but I would suspect that Paul has a lot of experience. So @ Paul, if one look at these 3 audiophonics dacs latest discussed : > https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/dac-and-interfaces-for-raspberry-pi/audiophonics-i-sabre-dac-es9023-raspberry-pi-a-b-20-i2s-p-11215.html https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/dac-and-interfaces-for-raspberry-pi/audiophonics-i-sabre-dac-es9023-tcxo-raspberry-pi-a-b-pi-3-pi-2-i2s-p-10296.html https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/dac-and-interfaces-for-raspberry-pi/audiophonics-i-sabre-v4-dac-es9023-tcxo-raspberry-pi-3-b-pi-3-b-pi-2-a-b-i2s-p-10657.html Anyone can see there is a clear price difference. And what I can understand they all have their own "onboard master clock" but the difference is that the two dearer ones have a better one. Hence the price difference one would think. Also it seems like the dearest one has a couple of "better" caps + the design is different with the two RCA outputs.(have not studied every detail, just a quick look) And from what I now hopefully understand, none of them has a "dedicated custom driver" but they all have the same ES9023 dac which I would think would make any of them "work" with the driver the OP is using in his set up? (with "work" meaning they can play "sound") Q : if there isn't a "custom driver that operate the clocks" could one say that the cheapest one is "best bang for bucks"? (assuming there's no need for the different RCA placing of the dearest one) And then from what you wrote : > > =Other pieces you would find in a custom driver would be some of the > DAC's, like the hifiberry DAC+Pro series that has on board master > clocks, these require special drivers to operate the clocks. Then how is the OP's card/clock running/controlled? I guess what I'm wondering is if when not having a "custom driver" for a dac is it then controlled by the Rpi clock? Sorry if that might be a very stupid question ... as mentioned earlier, I've no idea :-/ But I do know though that in digital audio the quality of the clock is very important. So trying to see/understand the point of using a dearer clock if one have an inferior designed driver.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite on a Pirate Audio 240x240 screen
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AS OF 18 APRIL 2020, UPDATED TO INCLUDE PAUL'S DISPLAY OVERLAY: Put a fresh pcp6.0.0 image on the SD card. Whilst the SD card is still in the laptop: Enter wifi credentials in wpa_supplicant.conf.sample and save as wpa_supplicant.conf Add these parameters to the end of cmdline.txt. All of the parameters in cmdline.txt should be on one continuous line, with a space between each one. Code: fbcon=map:10 fbcon=font:VGA8x16 Add the following lines to config.txt, in the Custom Configuration area at the end of the file (between the Begin-Custom and End-Custom lines) Code: dtoverlay=st7789v-spi gpio=25=op,dh Boot the RPi from this SD card. Find the ip address of the RPi, and enter this in a browser. Once the RPi has booted up, this should bring up the pCP web interface. Scroll down 'Additional functions' and click on 'Extensions'. Wait for three green ticks, then click on the 'Available' tab. In the 'Available extensions in the piCorePlayer repository' section, load the pcp-jivelite_default-qvga240squareskin.tcz extension. In the Jivelite section of the tweaks page, change the Framebuffer to /dev/fb1 and click on 'Set FB'. The Frame Rate and Frame Depth can be left blank - they will default to 22 and 32 respectively, which are fine. Install Jivelite from the Tweaks page (this step includes an automatic backup, so accept the reboot prompt.) The screen should now show console messages during boot, then the piCorePlayer splash screen, then Jivelite Choose Language. Go back to the pCP web interface and load pcp-sbpd.tcz from the Extensions page. Make a /home/tc/sbpd-script.sh with the following content: Code: #!/bin/sh # start pigpiod daemon pigpiod -t 0 -f -l -s 10 # wait for pigpiod to initialize - indicated by 'pigs t' exit code of zero count=10 # approx time limit in seconds while ! pigs t >/dev/null 2>&1 ; do if [ $((count--)) -le 0 ]; then printf "\npigpiod failed to initialize within time limit\n" exit 1 fi # printf "\nWaiting for pigpiod to initialize\n" sleep 1 done printf "\npigpiod is running\n" # load uinput module - required to be able to send keystrokes # then set the permission to group writable, so you don't need to run sbpd with root permissions sudo modprobe uinput sudo chmod g+w /dev/uinput # The full list of Jivelite key commands can be found here: # https://github.com/ralph-irving/tcz-lirc/blob/master/jivekeys.csv # button A SW1=5 # GPIO pin number SH1=KEY:KEY_EQUAL # command for SHORT press ( = volume up) LO1=KEY:KEY_SPACE # command for LONG press (= pause) LMS1=250 # milliseconds for long press # button B SW2=6 SH2=KEY:KEY_MINUS # ( = volume down) LO2=KEY:KEY_Q # ( = power) LMS2=250 # button X SW3=16 SH3=KEY:KEY_UP LO3=KEY:KEY_RIGHT LMS3=250 # button Y SW4=20 SH4=KEY:KEY_DOWN #LO4=KEY:KEY_LEFT LO4=KEY:KEY_ESC LMS4=250 #CMD="sbpd -v -f /home/tc/sbpd_commands.cfg \ CMD="sbpd -v \ b,$SW1,$SH1,2,0,$LO1,$LMS1 \ b,$SW2,$SH2,2,0,$LO2,$LMS2 \ b,$SW3,$SH3,2,0,$LO3,$LMS3 \ b,$SW4,$SH4,2,0,$LO4,$LMS4" echo $CMD $CMD > /dev/null 2>&1 & Make /home/tc/sbpd-script.sh executable: Code: chmod +x /home/tc/sbpd-script.sh Add /home/tc/sbpd-script.sh to user commands (bottom of the 'Tweaks' page), then save.
