Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] 'Official' docker container for LMS?
On LMS info page under *"Helper Applications Folder"* I have following Synology 'internal' paths : -"/lms/Bin/x86_64-linux, /lms/Bin, /usr/local/sbin, /usr/local/bin, /usr/sbin, /usr/bin, /sbin, /bin, /usr/libexec.."- Do I have to back up those folders too or just '/config' content ? The binary folders are part of the image, no need to back the up (you can't, actually).

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] 'Official' docker container for LMS?
Could it be so, that in the LMS docker version there is some 'hard coding' for the directories that could be linked to /music? Something like /volume1/music, volume1/pictures and /volume1/video? No. The software running inside Docker has no idea what is outside. It only sees /music. What that it is on the outside it can't know. And it only can access what exists in the container. AFAIK you can't mount a folder on the host to a path which does not exist in the container. Trying to mount /volumes/moremusic to /music2 in the container won't work, as /music2 does not exist. When you fail to see things in /music that you mounted there, then this almost certainly is due to permissions. The Docker container can't access everything on your system. Make sure you set up the user ID correctly. -- Michael ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] 'Official' docker container for LMS?
Unfortunately the problem still occurs. Even though the setup (like /volume1/music -> /music/music1 and /volume1/somedirectory/anothermusic -> /music2) looked OK, the LMS scanned only the directory /music/music1. It did the same, even I set the directory to be scanned as /music. The directory /music/music2 get 'scanned', but the system finds only 0 files. (The Synology package LMS version 7.9.1 works OK). I even tried to link the /volume1 to /music, but only useful directories which were visible, were: music, pictures and videos. No other shared directories, like those I've made, were able to be selected. I also tried to link /volume1/somedirectory/anotherdirectory -> /music, but then not even the music directory exists at the selection window.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] 'Official' docker container for LMS?
The practice from larger systems tells, that a workaround can't be a permanent solution. Especially if you need tot do changes to the outside system, like here in the Synology. Experience also shows that more complex and larger systems often don't work with the simple package designed to be easy to use. If you have special requirements, then you'll have to put in some effort. Whether this be what you consider a workaround, or your custom Docker image to extend its possibilities is up to you. It's possible that this kind of workaround is not effective after upgrade. Symlinks are a pretty well supported concept in Linux systems.

I think the problem I've described is in the UI. Even with this type of linking directories, the selection window don't show any other music directory, than the /music, or its direct sub-directories, not the linked ones. Are you saying that navigating to /music would show you... nothing? I was able to use the other linked directory by manually writing it to the directory setting. Now it seems to work OK, although there are about 100 000 records totally, including duplicates, so it takes time to be really sure... Ok, that's one way to work around it.

Ok, then I don't have to change to the M.2 SSD. It would also be a bit expensive, as I am using a 2TB SATA SSD. The longest operation is to create the LMS library completely new and that is really fast since I changed the USB stick used for the database (I think it is 30 minutes faster now).

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] [How To] Using the Argon One case for the Pi 4B together with piCorePlayer (7.x)
My M.2 SSD and adapter have arrived, and I've been investigating with the tools described in the 'blog post that Paul linked to' (https://lemariva.com/blog/2020/08/raspberry-pi-4-ssd-booting-enabled-trim). I first of all investigated my existing Sandisk SATA SSD drive that's connected via a cheapo SATA-to-USB adapter. The indications are that it's unmap-capable (but not enabled), and that it's using 'Bulk-Only Transport' (BOT) and not UASP. No great surprises there, and I guess I could implement unmap as per the instructions in the blog post. Code: tc@pCPServer:/mnt/sdb2/tce$ fstrim -v /mnt/Music fstrim: FITRIM: Operation not permitted tc@pCPServer:/mnt/sdb2/tce$ sg_vpd -p bl /dev/sda . . . Maximum unmap LBA count: 4194240 Maximum unmap block descriptor count: 1 Optimal unmap granularity: 1 blocks Unmap granularity alignment valid: false Unmap granularity alignment: 0 [invalid] . . . tc@pCPServer:/mnt/sdb2/tce$ lsusb -v Bus 002 Device 003: ID 174c:55aa ASMedia Technology Inc.

Interface Descriptor: . . bInterfaceClass 8 Mass Storage bInterfaceSubClass 6 SCSI bInterfaceProtocol 80 Bulk-Only . . . I then used the same commands on the new 'M.2 SATA drive' (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B078WYS5K6) connected via the Argon adapter. If I'm reading the output correctly, then this setup is NOT unmap-capable, and is also using the BOT driver, rather than UASP. That's a bit of a surprise, given the blurb on the 'Pi Hut page' (https://thepihut.com/collections/raspberry-pi-cases/products/argon-one-m-2-raspberry-pi-4-case) about UASP support. Perhaps I need to do something to enable it, or perhaps I'm misreading the output. Code: tc@pCP:~$ fstrim -v /mnt/m2 fstrim: FITRIM: Operation not permitted tc@pCP:~$ sg_vpd -p bl /dev/sda . . .

I also did a few rudimentary speed tests, as per the instructions on 'this page' (https://elinux.org/RPi_SD_cards#Terminal_Commands). I found that my old SATA drive achieves a write speed of around 150MB/s and read speed of around 210MB/s. The new M.2 SATA drive achieves a write speed of around 245MB/s and a read speed of around 300MB/s. These are all somewhat short of the 5Gbps possible under USB3, but hey, at least the new M.2 drive seems to be about 50% faster than the SSD I've been using. And since it's only used to store a largely static music collection, both drives are more than fast enough. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113575 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite for piCorePlayer
I've managed to fix my Jivelite problems, after a lot of trial and error :) I use docker containers to run my LMS, and the problem was I could access the player from my LMS, but could not get the player to work with the screen, it would not find a player or LMS. I did manage a hack to it, which entailed installing LMS on the player and then remote mounting my music from my main LMS. But this just seemed all wrong. Any way it makes a difference which container you use, as I was using containers before the lmscommunity/logitechmediaserver container was made I used this 1 dlandon/logitechmediaserver. I might well change to the lmscommunity/logitechmediaserver one yet. If you compare the 2 run commands you will notice that lmscommunity/logitechmediaserver has a udp port listed! And yes that was the missing port, so if you're running a container and intend to use Jivelite the please make sure these ports are mapped - -p 9000:9000/tcp, 9090:9090/tcp , 3483:3483/tcp ,3483:3483/udp .

[SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer DAC and samplerate
I just bought a new Topping D50s (replacing a Cambridge Audio DacMagic) and connected this to an RPi 4 running piCorePlayer via USB. One of the reasons to get the D50s was to get higher sample rates. The DM was only able to get to 44.1KHz on USB. However, so far I've been able to "only" get 48KHz on the D50s using the "sysdefault:CARD=D50s" Output Setting in pCP. Most other settings result in 44.1KHz b.t.w. That 48KHz sample rate may be the maximum possible, but it's a tad disappointing to say the least. Especially since I read values of 192KHz and above in the USB DAC Google Sheet for DAC's that seem less capable than the D50s. So, the question is, am I missing something? Do I need to change other settings? Is someone having experience with the D50s (or D50) and willing to share their settings?

The case seems extraordinarily effective without the fan. I've yet to test the fan at higher temperatures, but it doesn't seem to be particularly useful at lower temperatures - when the CPU is sitting at 40 degrees, if I turn the fan on to 100% it barely drops the temperature by one or two degrees. It may be different when the server is inside my router cupboard though, so I'll treat this as merely a bit of extra security. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113575 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

This works perfectly. The argononed.conf file can now be edited while
the script is running, and the changes are applied on the fly. In fact
I moved the whole fanconfig block inside the loop, so that the script
will continue to operate with the defaults even if the conf file is
deleted.
Code:
def temp_check():
# fanconfig = ["65=100", "60=55", "57=30", "55=10", "30=0"]
# tmpconfig = load_config("etc/argononed.conf")
# tmpconfig = load_config("/home/tc/argononed.conf")
# if len(tmpconfig) > 0:
# fanconfig = tmpconfig
address=0x1a
prevblock=0
while True:
fanconfig = ["65=100", "60=55", "57=30", "55=10", "30=0"]
tmpconfig = load_config("/home/tc/argononed.conf")
if len(tmpconfig) > 0:
fanconfig = tmpconfig
temp = os.popen("vcgencmd measure_temp").readline()
temp = temp.replace("temp=","")
val = float(temp.replace("'C",""))
block = get_fanspeed(val, fanconfig)
if block < prevblock:
time.sleep(30)
prevblock = block
try:
bus.write_byte(address,block)
except IOError:
temp=""
time.sleep(30)
This is useful for testing purposes - I changed the conf file to contain
a single entry, '35=100', and within 30 seconds the fan came on at 100%.
I renamed the conf file, and within 30 seconds the fan turned off again
in accordance with the defaults in the python script.
