Well, that is lovely.  I was missing a kernel patch in my kernel build
for pCP7.  That caused the overlay dtb to be missing from the image. 
Luckily, there were no changes to the overlay between the last version
of pCP and this one, so it's compatable.

These tabs are fairly robust.

It would require something to do with MAC addresses changing, are you
swapping between wired and wifi, or have you changed the standard LMS

I won't fiddle, but they don't work for me with a fresh install.  

Not a big deal since this is not the primary way to control the music
anyway, but odd they don't work.

Sorry not sure i caught the whole story, but if your trying to wake a
device on wifi, the device can't be sleeping either, typically they will
still show network status lights.

In addition, ususally have to be on the same switch as its a broadcast
packet.  Try to wake it up from same device type (ie: wifi from pi, now
try on wifi from phone).  I had issues when i had multiple linksys/dlink
switches and the way it handled broadcasts across them.

That said, why aren't you simply running this player from the LMS web

Just starting to play with pCP.  I have successfully got it running on a
rPi 3b (64-bit).   Right now playing out of the rPi headphone jack into
an amp, but will likely add a hifiberry dac.  All is good.

Anyway, I noticed the simple music controls at the top of the pCP web
page, but they do not seem to work.  The play/stop/next track/prev
track/vol up/vol down 'buttons'.  They do nothing for me. 

The pCP webpage farther down correctly finds my LMS (on another machine
on the network) so I've left that blank, but maybe I need to put in its
IP and port - (9000? 9090?)  It suggests not to put a port unless I've
configured LMS away from standard, which I have not.

Pics below.

Am I missing something on this?  Or perhaps these controls are only if
you are running LMS on the same box?

Thanks for any insights.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] [How To] Using the Argon One case for the Pi 4B together with piCorePlayer (7.x)

2021-01-13 Thread chill


My new factory-fresh Argon M.2 adapter tray arrived today (same firmware
as the original one had: 140704a1), so I've done some comparative
speed tests.  And after all that there's no difference between this one
and my original version(firmware upgraded to 141126a1ee82)!  Using the
same M.2 SSD drive swapped between the adapter trays, I ran my earlier
speed testing script 5 times - the first time with the test.tmp file
deleted, and the subsequent four times without deleting it each time.  I
then averaged the results of the latter four tests.


Code:

New Adapter   Old Adapter
  Ave write (MB/s) 145.1 145.0
  Ave read (MB/s)  227.5 225.9
  Min write (MB/s) 137.2 135.3
  Max write (MB/s) 163.0 170.3
  Min read (MB/s)  226.8 222.0
  Max read (MB/s)  228.1 227.2



I had made a written note of the results of this test performed when I
first received the adapter tray and the SSD, so it's not my memory
playing tricks.  It was definitely about 50% faster (although I can't be
sure whether I was consistent about deleting test.tmp or not, but its
presence doesn't affect the read speeds).  I can only guess that maybe
the difference is down to the drive now having about 180GB of music
files on it, whereas initially the tests were done with an empty drive. 
Could that affect the speed tests? I'm not about to delete everything
just to redo these tests, but I'm happy now that the trim-enabled
firmware has not affected the read and write speeds.

So now I have a spare Argon One M.2 adapter tray.  What to do with
it.   Maybe I should buy another Argon One case and another
Raspberry Pi!

things to try

does the usb input stay alive in Amp standby ?

Check if you can defeat the auto-off inactivity timer

Check / change the usb class

If you have an old pi, install pCP on that and see if the external usb
power will power the pi

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Start/restart squeezelite when plug-in USB dac

2021-01-13 Thread chill


@corrobor - you posted just before me, and evidently have different
results.  I think my case is slightly different, in that my USB DAC is
one of several inputs built into my amp (a Hypex DLCP).  Previously, if
I had the amp switched to 'optical' instead of 'USB' while the Pi was
booting, the DAC would not be found and Squeezelite would not start. 
But now I find that I can even do without the '-C 5' option.  The
difference is that I'm now using 'hw:CARD=DAC,DEV=0' under pCP7, whereas
previously I was using 'front:CARD=DAC,DEV=0' under pCP6.  Something has
clearly changed, for the better in my case.

Thanks Ralphy - that's done the trick in my case.  With the output set
to hw:CARD=DAC,DEV=0, and the -C 5 option, Squeezelite starts up even if
the DAC is off, and starts outputting to it as soon as the DAC appears. 
It's also equally robust if I should disconnect and then reconnect the
DAC while it's playing.

Not works.
Now, my dac Is Power off. Squeezelite Is down. I try to start
squeezelite by SSH to Copy the output:
tc@Stereo:~$ /usr/local/bin/squeezelite -n "Stereo" -o hw:CARD=R20,DEV=0

As you see, if the dac Is off, squeezelite dont accept "-o hw:card."
because It not exist. If i Power on dac It works.
I'm thinking an udev rule that start squeezelite when dac Is on...

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Start/restart squeezelite when plug-in USB dac

2021-01-13 Thread ralphy


Try enabling the Close output setting (-C) option with a value of 5.

It's suppose to allow squeezelite to start and wait for the device to
appear.

You need to use the hw:CARD= device with the -o option not plughw:CARD=

I'm not sure this will help in this case.  That tweak means that once
Squeezelite has started, it doesn't mind the USB DAC disappearing - it
will output to it again without intervention once the DAC reappears. 
But in my experience Squeezelite will still fail to start at boot time
if the DAC isn't there.

That tweak MAY help the OP if he can find a way to force Squeezelite to
start regardless of whether the DAC is present (I'd be interested in
such a solution too) - that tweak may then mean that as soon as the DAC
appears Squeezelite will then be happy to output to it.

Doing which of the suggestions ?

Which amp/ dac do you have ?

Are they seperate devices or an all-in-one?

You can put the piCoreplayer Squeezelite web page on a smartphone as a
desktop shortcut and use that to restart Squeezelite

or maybe use the Material Skin interface (also as a desktop shortcut) to
switch the player of and then on ?

@corrobor

Does the amp/dac have a standby mode ?
If you power on the amp/dac at a regular time (maybe a timer on the
power switch) you could run a cron job on the pi for a restart a few
minutes later).
Use a ssh command from your smartphone, tablet, or PC to restart the pi
after amp/dac power up.

Hi. When Raspberry restart, if dac Is Power off, squeezelite cannot
start because the device "hw:CARD=Device,DEV=0" Is not present. So, when
i Power on dac, i have to open picoreplayer web interface and click to
start on squeezelite.
I Need (by udev event???) to autostart squeezelite when dac Is Power on

set an autoplay favourite, when the pi restarts, it should output the
stream to the dac, when the dac/amp is powered on it should be already

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] In ceiling set up with Pis

2021-01-13 Thread garym999


The screen for the HiFi version is a 'Elecrow'
(https://www.elecrow.com/5-inch-hdmi-800-x-480-capacitive-touch-lcd-display-for-raspberry-pi-pc-sony-ps4.html)
5" HDMI with capacitive USB touchscreen. Nice and and good value but
with the addition of the connectors and thier RA adapters probably make
the front panel an inch taller and 1/4" thicker than it needs to be. No
biggy in this instance.

There are also PCB headers for the audio out on the Allo DAC and that is
what I used to breakout the audio to the rear panel sockets. Again it
deals with the bulk of an RCA plug in the chassis. Given the short
distance I used some small (about 2mm dia.) screened cable I had left
over. I've seen people use anything from unscreened solid core cable to
the largest diameter screened cable using the precious metals etc.
Something that I see used a lot and is good value is twisted pairs out
of a RJ45 patch lead, indeed I have used that in the pre-amp.

The only thing that I could have given more thought to is the access to
the microSD card, its on the Pi under the Allo HAT point towards the
display. It's easy enough to get out but getting it back in is a little
fiddly. I've just upgraded to PcP7 and they recommend a fresh install.

I received a helpful reply to my question about the permitted rate of
image requests from the Fourmilab Earth viewer.  Although the 'service
denial' message tells me that I've made too many requests within a
10-minute period, the rule itself is apparently that if you make 100
requests without a 10-minute gap then you are locked out.  I ran it
overnight with one request every 15 minutes and I was not locked out. 
This still works rather well as a screensaver, because the cloud imagery
only updates every few hours anyway, and the day/night boundary doesn't
move very far in 15 minutes.
