Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] 'Official' docker container for LMS?

2021-08-25 Thread Michael Herger

When i run "mscommunity/logitechmediaserver:8.1.2" the container starts
without problem.
Haven't tried other, newer, versions yet, but there seems to be a
problem with 'stable'


Hmm... the biggest difference between the two is the underlying Debian 
version. But that seems to be working for the majority of users without 
any problem at all.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite for piCorePlayer

2021-08-25 Thread mr-b


The active speakers don't have vol controls, just trim pots for various
freq corrections and RCA and XLR inputs, so it's just PCP
(squeezelite/jivelite?) that is doing vol control. Hmm - maybe wrong
thread!
The ALSA mixer settings were at the those you mentioned already.

The noises are:
1) Boot up squealing 
2) Background hiss
3) Transport change (vol/pause etc.) clicks

After some testing I found that if I switched to a USB DAC with the
display back on, the boot up noise disappeared so it's something to do
with the DAC HAT. I found that the noises are in time with the activity
LED so I guess there's some interference issue.

Background hiss varied widely between different DACs.

The transport/vol change clicks/glitches are definitely more noticeable
using RCA (12dB more sensitive than XLR) and on quiet tracks. I can hear
them now with the same tracks on other Squeezelite systems connected to
active monitors, so is it just an artefact of Squeezelite playback? I
just don't hear it using Foobar2k direct to a DAC.
Changing the ALSA buffer from 80 to 240 has helped a little I think with
one SPDIF DAC system so far. Will do some more testing. Maybe these
monitors are just too revealing! :-)

The PCM512x codec driver has a ton of mixer controls.  The defaults are
normally just fine.

Assuming your speakers are doing volume control.  Check to make sure you
have the "Digital Volume" set to max  (207 / 0db)   I also set the
Analogue Volume to 1 / 0db   And Analogue Playback boost to 0 / 0db.


If you hear whines and clicks during boot, that is noise.  Possibly a
bad power supply, or just poor connections or poor cable routing.  Once
the system is booted, and you are not playing music (i.e. lms power
control is off)  The DAC should be interanally muted at this point, so
there should be no sound there either.

Tx, but the clicking is still present.
Also I tried disconnnecting the screen power and the boot-up noises are
still audible.

try changing the first value from 80 to 160 or 240

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite for piCorePlayer

2021-08-25 Thread mr-b


I have a Justboom DAC HAT and am trying out some monitor speakers which
are showing up clicks/glitches whenever I change volume or pause
playback. I'd not noticed these before but I was connected to a basic AV
amp, and via ethernet (now wifi) - so maybe the monitors are just more
sensitive. How does one solve clicks in the Jivelite settings?

The output setting is hw:CARD=sndrpijustboomd. ALSA is 80 4 _ 1 _.
The Alsa mixer and Card control show an amazing arrangement of settings
- are there any docs or guidance on where to start?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] PicorePlayer - how to add a new service to start a custom server ?

2021-08-25 Thread Greg Erskine


I think Paul assumed that your programs (with a script in init.d) would
be added to a piCore extension, so it would be loaded on boot.

See "'Creating a piCore extension'
(https://docs.picoreplayer.org/information/picore_extensions/)"

You could call the init.d script from a [Main Page] > [Tweaks] > "User
command" depending if it starts early enough in the boot process.

See [Main Page] > [Diagnostics] > [Boot Process] for boot order and
scripts.

If you name "/home/tc/server/server.log" "/var/log/pcp_server.log" it
will be available via [Main Page] > [Diagnostics] > [Logs], although it
will not be backed up between reboots unless you add it to
.filetool.lst.
