Another issue - on the PCP screen it shows multiple entries of the
form:


not a valid flac file: (filehandle)
Unhandled GUID: 1806d474-etc. size :280

It does also show a couple of named flac files which as it turns out are
corrupted - but i've not attempted to play these files in ages, so what
is testing them?
Also the display remains stuck on these entries and it doesn't show the
normal PCP player screen.

Hmm the last time I fiddled with cron was with AT&T SVR4! Guess I'll
have to try and remember to manually check. It just seem odd
client-server behaviour though not to have it dynamically accessed on

But it'd still be good not to have my password exposed as one never

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Running LMS on Raspberry Pi for newbie to the Pi

2020-04-28 Thread Man in a van


@ bpa

I understand your advice (and I have been very grateful for your lucid
explanations, which have helped me a lot,reading what you say to
others).

It is just that in my user case Raspbian Deasktop OS on a rpi 4b I use
only alsa.

(Pulse and Jack  have  to be installed)

All of the dac hats I use respond well to hw: and the same can be said
of usb (I first used front:).

I know of some portable dacs that used to require plughw: and maybe
still do.

Ultimately, I just try things and if I can make them work, then I'm
condfident in recomending something. 

The point that I know nowt about how any of it works is completely
irrelevent  :o :o :) :)

My comments are sort of aimed at other readers of the thread possibly at
some later date.

I'm on a little crusade trying to make people aware that there are
subtle differences between the different ALSA device selections 

For example, sometimes "default" is the same as "pulse" which means two
processes owned by different users cannot use the "pulse" device as
pulseaudio is normally per user.  

There are other difference which may be masked by LMS and/or
squeezelite's ability to transcodeo r resample unless users disable
features or override them with command line options.

Another example, recently a PC user was using "front:" which seemed to
work for any stream but for one stream it didn't.  User was using a $5
USB audio adapter which only supports 44.1kHz & 48khz and the stream was
32kHz.
Both front and plughw allow more data formats to be played through the
USB audio adapter. 

"front" handles 
Sampling rate 44100..192000 Hz
Sample formats: S16_LE, S32_LE

"plughw" handles
Sampling rate 4000..4294967295 Hz
Sample formats: S8, U8, S16_LE, S16_BE, U16_LE, U16_BE, S24_LE, S24_BE,
U24_LE, U24_BE, S32_LE, S32_BE, U32_LE, U32_BE, FLOAT_LE, FLOAT_BE,
FLOAT64_LE, FLOAT64_BE, MU_LAW, A_LAW, IMA_ADPCM, S24_3LE, S24_3BE,
U24_3LE, U24_3BE, S20_3LE, S20_3BE, U20_3LE, U20_3BE, S18_3LE, S18_3BE,
U18_3LE, U18_3BE

So playing the 32kHz stream on squeezelite did not work through "front"
but did work through "plughw".

Yes I do recall this happened before after a server reboot, but this
time I had to offline the music library for a disk check (the bigger
disks take quite a time).  I hadn't twigged it might cause an issue
since I wasn't actively playing any media (obvs).

Is there any way of making PCP more resilient to shares being offline?
It seems a bit drastic to disable it entirely. Either way, it'd also be
handy if the share availability (and any susbequent impact) was flagged
somewhere.
FWIW I'd guess my mini windows server takes about 2 mins to reboot and
for shares to be available.

DEV=1 or 2 often means a digital output such as SPDIF or HDMI and so
nothing will happen on analog.

"hw:" means only the hardware supported samplerate/sampleformats will be
sent - so LMS will have to resample/trasncode as required.

"plughw" means ALSA will support all data rate and will process audio

Does this happen after a power outage.  During boot, if pCP cannot mount
the network drive, it will disable the mount.   The most common case is
a NAS that take along time to boot.

This is becoming more common, I can increase the wait time, and also not
disable the mount.  Anyone have an opinion as to how long your NAS takes
to boot?

If it is working you can omit the "-d output=info "  - it is there only
for debugging 

To be strictly, it may be better to have a DEV setting on the ALSA
device - otherwise it is default to zero.

You may also get issues later on with using sysdefault rather than an
explicit device - such as not supporting certain data rates.

2020-04-28 Thread mr-b


Hi

I see every now and again (seen this in 5.0 too) that my Network Disk
Mount kept being disabled. Also the password field was blank, when I'd
expect the password to be saved and indicated as such with asterisks.
If I re-enabled it, it prompted to reboot the PCP, but after a few
unsuccessful times, then I discovered that the Reboot dialogue box had
partially obscured an error in the "Write to Mount" processs log page.
In the background there was a "Disk Mount Error. Try to Reboot".


Then I found that it hadn't saved my password, so I re-entered it and to
my surprise the Write to mount page mount cmd exposes my password in
clear text!
But then the mount completes successfully and doesn't prompt for a
reboot, until I click 'go back' when it warns a reboot is required.

Is there any way that mount errors can not be obscured in this way, but
obscure the password?

Also any ideas what the underlying issue is with the mount being
disabled and the password being deleted?

This worked for me but I had to change ExecStart in squeezelite.service
file a tiny bit. Now SqueezeLite automatically starts at boot.

sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/squeezelite.service

[Unit]
Description=Squeezelite

After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/squeezelite -o sysdefault:CARD=ALSA -n
Pi_SqueezeliteService -C 5 -d output=info

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite for piCorePlayer

2020-04-28 Thread ralphy


After setting the jivelite width and height in the webgui,  restart
jivelite.

Try either Touch Skin (HresxVres) or Grid Skin (HresxVres) that matches
the resolution you set in the webgui.  These skins use the same code
base as the JogglerSkin, the HD skins are the original ones that Triode
developed for the CSOS project and I don't maintain them.

Sorry, I can't try this myself ATM, testing several other changes.

[SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer Set HDMI output as the default output at startup even if not connected

2020-04-28 Thread Masiwo

Hello alltogether,

I hope I haven´t overlooked a thread in which that is already discussed
but the HDMI output of Squeezelite only works for me if my Amplifier is
also turned on at the startup of the raspberrypi running piCorePlayer.
How can I force the HDMI output to be used regardless of that
circumstance ? For Raspbian there is a
tutorial(https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/2169/how-do-i-force-the-raspberry-pi-to-turn-on-hdmi)
but I haven´t figured out how to do this on TinyCoreLinux.

Best regards

Daniel

Never rm the instance, then. I wouldn’t live with that personally, but
to each their own.
