Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Getting Streamer for Audio Input to work with HiFiBerry DAC+ADC

Good.  I should have suggested it a while back.   Sometimes getting
upgraded too many times weird things happen, as the system architecture
changes.

Not answering the question you asked, but I have successfully run LMS in
a Crouton chroot on an x86 Chromebook.



LMS 8 nightly running on Raspberry Pi OS. Mostly virtual players,
occasionally with SB Radio, Boom or Classic.

[SlimDevices: Unix] LMS on Linux VM in Chrome OS?

2022-01-07 Thread Mark Miksis


I'm curious.  Is anyone running the Linux version of LMS on the Linux VM
on a Chrome OS box?  I don't really have a need to do this, but I'm
curious if anyone's tried it and if there are any gotchas.  More and
more people are switching to Chrome OS and this may start to come up.

No need. I resolved it. Since I figured further fault-finding would take
longer than starting from scratch, I:


- Downloaded the latest PCP build
- Backed up the slimserver directory from the PCP card
- Imaged the card with the downloaded PCP
- Set up PCP and downloaded LMS
- Started LMS to create the slimserver directory
- Stopped LMS and replaced the slimserver directory with my backup;
  started LMS again
- Selected the HiFiBerry soundcard in the Slimserver settings
- Streamed successfully!
  

I don't know exactly what was fixed, but now I can successfully stream
whatever is playing on my main living room system across the whole
house, in FLAC quality. Superb!

A huge thanks to @paul- for all the patient responses.

PCP really is a Swiss Knife for audio. A small donation is on its way to
Steen. 👏👏👏

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] could this be a Squeezebox player if pCP will install and work?

2022-01-07 Thread ajgg


Thanks for the quick response and great to hear that the DAC works with
one of the drivers for another card with the same chip set. I think that
the IQaudIO and JustBoom cards have the same chip set as well.

Look forward to hearing your opinions about the sound quality. 

I'm considering using the nanosound for my main server; allowing
HiFiBerry Amp with touchscreen to become just a player together with two
other Pis with HiFiBerry DACs. I've found that the touchscreen has
become unpredictable in its responses since changing it to the amp
rather than just a DAC.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Getting Streamer for Audio Input to work with HiFiBerry DAC+ADC

2022-01-07 Thread beneix


OK, I replaced my asound.conf with the system default that you provided,
and set the input device to *hw:CARD=sndrpihifiberry,DEV=0* (this
selection is made from a drop-down list, and this was the only entry in
the list so I can't choose anything else). This yielded the following
error in the streamer log:

Code:


  ALSA lib pcm.c:2660:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM pcpinput
  arecord: main:830: audio open error: No such file or directory


I then changed *card Headphones* in the pcm.pcpinput section in
asound.conf to *card sndrpihifiberry*.

Now I got

Code:

Recording raw data 'stdin' : Signed 32 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, 
Stereo
  arecord: pcm_read:2153: read error: Input/output error



What else do I need to change in asound.conf?

Well strike me everlasting perishing purple! :D

Thanks for the hint.

It works with that card no problem, I thought I'd tried them all. Blue
LED comes on when playing and goes off after ~ 15 secs when stopped.

Wife still snoring here, so I can't give an opinion on the sound yet.

Thanks again Jeff. :cool:
