Hi again roonie, I went ahead and created this issue in Github:
https://github.com/ralph-irving/squeezelite/issues/172 I'm crossing my
fingers, I will eventually get my system working in a more reasonable
way. Will report back if I ever manage to address my issue.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] My Alpine Linux Repo for LMS and Squeezelite

2022-11-11 Thread sodface


I upgraded my server to Alpine 3.17.0_rc1 and rebuilt the lms-modules
package against perl 5.36 (was 5.34 but upgraded as part of the Alpine
3.17 upgrade). The new lms-modules package only has the 5.36 modules in
it but I wasn't sure if you already had the 5.34 modules installed
whether they would stay and the 5.36 would just be added alongside, but
no, it looks like apk removed the 5.34 when doing the upgrade. So I
think that means you don't have much choice other than to upgrade both -
Alpine to 3.17 and lms-modules to lms-modules-8-r6.

I don't have the new packages uploaded to sodface.com/repo yet though
I've tested locally and it seems good:


Code:


  Logitech Media Server Version: 8.4.0 - 1667914576 @ Tue 08 Nov 2022 03:13:40 
PM CET
  Hostname: server
  Server IP Address: 10.0.0.10
  Server HTTP Port Number: 9000
  Operating system: Alpine Linux - EN - utf8
  Platform Architecture: x86_64-linux
  Perl Version: 5.36.0 - x86_64-linux-thread-multi
  Audio::Scan: 1.05
  IO::Socket::SSL: 2.075
  Database Version: DBD::SQLite 1.58 (sqlite 3.22.0)
  Total Players Recognized: 2 
  



I'm building lms-modules for the other architectures now. I plan to
upload on the same day Alpine 3.17.0 final is released. To upgrade
everything then, check your /etc/apk/repositories file and make sure
it's pointing to either latest-stable or v3.17, and make sure the
sodface.com repo is uncommented eg:


Code:


  http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.17/main
  http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.17/community
  #http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/testing
  http://www.sodface.com/repo
  



Then update and upgrade:


Code:


  $ sudo apk update
  $ sudo apk upgrade --available

Wow! thanks for investing your time to share with us these different
scenarios. In my case, I'm gonna continue investigating a bit more,
because I really want to do away with the remote control. But honestly,
a huge thanks for the time you invested in writing this post.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Backup piCorePlayer without removing SD card

2022-11-11 Thread bengaldave


@ronnie

Not sure if you are joking or serious but I am using tweezers.

I am using the official pi display and the ribbon connector is right
around the sd slot so there is not enough room for fingers.

I am very reluctant to ever disconnect the display ribbon, as the
retainer clip for the ribbon on the display is very fragile. 

So need to use tweezers and approach from the side.

I did buy the sd extension and that solves this issue.

Also bought a right angle Ethernet adapter as Ethernet port has the same
issue, no clearance to get fingers there.

Yes thanks you i test the dynamics pluggins => it's not very user

For the advanced search, i can't undestand how to save it as a libray

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] picoreplayer and plexamp headless on the same rpi

2022-11-11 Thread Paul Webster


pCP is not a full blown operating system like Raspberry Pi OS ... so
many things that you might think should be possible on a "regular" Linux
system are not straight-forward in pCP.
There is often a way to do it but at the expense of working out how the
installer works for the application that you want.

However, you can run Squeezelite on a regular Linux for Raspberry Pi.
So while you lose the ease of use that pCP brings, you gain the ability
to install and run pretty well anything that works on RPi.

Is it also possible to install it directly from the terminal with apt

pCP is a full Linux distribution based on piCore Linux. It's NOT an 
application, but the operating system and everything. Only smaller.

[SlimDevices: Unix] picoreplayer and plexamp headless on the same rpi

2022-11-11 Thread joggs2


Hi,
I would like to run picoreplayer and plexamp headless on the same
Raspberry Pi.
Based on what I have read you install picoreplayer by burning an image
to the sd card.
Is it also possible to install it directly from the terminal with apt
get etc ?

Plexamp is installable with apt get so one alternative would be to burn
the picoreimage and then from ssh install plexamp headless. If that
sounds possible, the next question would be how you update picoreplayer.
It is not a working solution if I have to reinstall plexamp at each
picore update, so I keep my fingers crossed that an apt upgrade or
something like that would be enough and that you can keep both
installations intact.

Thanks!

I have not tried this ... but take a look at the Dynamic Playlist
plugin.
Another approach could be to use "Library Views".
First do the "Advanced Search" and then when that is providing the
tracks that you expected you can use save that as a Library View ... and
then you can select that view when you want to play some or all of those
tracks.

It would be quite nice if someone were interested in maintaining and
distributing a project on behalf of the community. 

I think just mentioning ways that someone might attempt it, however, has
become off topic.

Thanks for the references, though. Perhaps it will help or inspire
someone.

"reading list" = liste de lecture (in french) = playlist (in english) 

Sorry my english is not very powerfull ... 

So playlist would be the right term :-) 

I don't know how to see it in picopplayer and i like to feed a playlist
