Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] PCP 8.2.0 on Pi4: very slow access to LMS tab

There is a button on the LMS page that allows the user to remove the LMS cache plus there is functionality to ask if cache should be preserved when LMS is being removed. Those items change behaviour depending on whether or not LMS cache is found. Perhaps the pCP team can come up with a way to make it more efficient (e.g. store result in a file and recreate the file if user choose to move cache via pCP menu). While you wait, you could edit LMS.cgi and make it always set DISABLECACHE to "".

Same result as before - "There was a error downloading slimserver.tcz" So I downloaded a fresh image of 8.1.0 and all went as it should, slimserver.tcz just downloaded and that's now got my music player running once more.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer 8.0.0 - Bluetooth Discussion
I am using Bluetooth in Player mode. Streaming audio works from all my devices, but volume control does not: I can control the volume when playing music from an Android phone, but when using a Mac as the source, the Mac's volume setting is ignored. I experimented a bit and found that this is because bluetoothd was started without the --plugin=a2dp flag. By default, it is started as /usr/local/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd --experimental. When I kill it and restart it as /usr/local/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd --experimental --plugin=a2dp, volume control works with all my devices. I cannot find the sources for this part of piCorePlayer anywhere, so I can't make a patch and I am not sure how to make my fix persistent. For now, I SSH in after every boot and restart bluetoothd with the correct flags. It would be nice if this fix would be upstreamed.

Was facing a similar issue recently, Logitechmediaserver language set to
German and working fine (using the "official" community image
lmscommunity/logitechmediaserver)
But screensaver of my Squeezebox Classic showing the date in english
format ("Tuesday", and not "Dienstag") while in screensaver mode
Reason: the screensaver does not derive its format from the language
selected within Logitechmediaserver, but from the locale used on the
underlying Linux system
My solution:
Use of the custom-init.sh script functionality the official docker
container does luckily provide + change of two language related
environment variables in docker compose
This will generate German locale on Linux level at start of container,
and set it as default locale
Afterwards the screensaver will show the date in German format as
expected :)
Docker compose:
Code:
environment:
- LANGUAGE=de_DE.UTF-8
- LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
custom-init.sh, to be placed into the root folder of the /config
directory
Code:
#!/bin/sh
apt-get update -qq
apt-get install --no-install-recommends -qy locales
sed -i -e 's/# en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8/' /etc/locale.gen
sed -i -e 's/# de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8/de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8/' /etc/locale.gen
echo 'LANG="de_DE.UTF-8"'>/etc/default/locale
dpkg-reconfigure --frontend=noninteractive locales

Tx for that. I should have mentioned that this is a RPi 4B/4GB and LMS has 100k tracks and Database Memory Config = max.

On the pcp only squeezelite and shairport are running. BT would be the third option. Or Chromecast, but as far as I know it is hard to achieve (getting it to work). Here is my current configuration: https://photos.app.goo.gl/gyWHc8bU6mWrpDrb6 Be advise that: - I am currently using the USB dac, which is set under *Squeezelite settings/Output setting* as *hw:CARD=Audio,DEV=0*. The *Audio output device settings* is set to *None* because I did not find the correct option to use just any usb connected device, - I can't set the BT to be always discoverable - the Save button is not available for this option, - device connected to pcp is my phone, Samsung A52S - I can not set the codec option for it on the phone and pcp too - option is not available to choose.
