Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0

Insitu upgrade issues on a Original Pi model B from version 7.x

I had bluetooth enabled - tried to disable / remove bluetooth support
from the webui an when the system rebooted I had no SSH access and
picoreplayer didn't start.

Connected a screen and keyboard and it appears some of the config wasn't
being loaded correctly as a bunch of directories were missing in
/usr/local/

Anyway I did a fresh install onto the SD card and rebuilt the config.
I've now got a secondary minor issue which I'll take to a different
thread.

I think this is probably just the mmap setting. For many years mmap was
set to 1 by default. This worked.

Now, HMDI and Heaphones require mmap to be 0 in some cases.

My guess is, even though we fixed the default mmap settings in pCP8.0.0
the wrong value was stored in your pcp.cfg file and not updated, until
you did the fiddle or twiddle. :)

Thank you very much - shutdown-monitor.armhf is now again starting

I also had some HDMI issues with an insitu upgrade. I was having
buffering issues using LMS from multiple sources until I realized the Pi
with LMS was on the same one with Picoreplayer using HDMI going to my
main stereo (and was dead silent). A couple of switcheroos at "Audio
output device settings" fixed all.

On a weird note, one of my three Pi's using the default headphone audio
setting was also silent. I had to switch it to hdmi and back to get it
to work. Ironically, audio from the headphone port worked when I
switched it to HDMI (go figure). I switched it back to headphones and it
continues to work.

FYI, a problem I've seen with the last several upgrades is the loss of
audio on any Pi setup to use the equalizer. I always have to remove it
to get audio going again. Installing equal after works fine.

Thanks for the upgrades!

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer 8.0.0 - Bluetooth Discussion

2021-07-17 Thread paul-


I had time to play.

RPi4 in 32 bit mode works fine
RPi3 has the audio glitches.

Both systems were wired ethernet.  And I used the same bluetooth earbuds
for the tests.   In all cases the interference throws no buffering
errors(or any errors).  And since the binaries are the same between the
two boards, this puts it at the bluetooth chip level.   My guess is that
the older bluetooth chipsets are more prone to interference under the
current kernels.

RPi Bluetooth has always been a bit problematic.

This should be fixed, update the shutdown-monitor extension.  (For the
record the event info after the @ sign is a bit random, on my pi4 it was
@16-event.  Probably depends on which rpi board and what you have
installed.   Anyway did a bit of globbing, and it should work now.

Lol,  we often bend the rules of some programs to make things work.   In
this case, since cdrom was not a dependency in kernel 5.4, but it is in
5.10.  That’s driving the error.   But I only added the dependency after
releasing pCP8, so we never saw it through testing. 

I’ll fix it today.

InSitu update failed. From 7.0.1 on a Pi 4 with a 16GB SD-Card and
'just' pCP (i.e. no LMS).

No idea what went wrong. The pi rebooted and from that moment I wasn't
able to access it anymore. Not through the .local url, nor via the ip
address. Since I don't have a mini-hdmi cable (nots to self: buy one
;-)) the only thing left to do was to flash a fresh image. That went
fine.
