I had those crashes at least one times a day when my player was
connected by WIFI. Even with a sheduled reboot every night.

Since I connected the player with LAN cable I didn't have any crash for
weeks even without sheduled rebooting. I'm glad that my piCorePlayer is
now running 24/7.

Thank you Greg. That's no way. I love pcp and the misbehaving of the
screen is a minor issue.


Code:

Is it possible that you are not using the correct resolution for the 
display? The display maybe has 800x480 and you are using 640x320.
  The touchscreen is sending coordinates for 800x480 as it is the resolution of 
the screen and this coordinates will be used for the 640x320 display. So you 
will reach the ends when you are not at the end of the touchscreen. 



Thank you Carsten. The display is in correct resolution, i.e. 800 x 480.
If that, what you think, would be the cause, the distance of the cursor
to the finger would not change. In my case, as mentioned, the distance
of cursor and touchpoint can be changed by moving the cursor to the
edges of the screen.

Hi Paul,

this display cannot be calibrated. I have no idea how to influence any
touchscreen library. There is also existing a 5" resistive touchscreen
of Waveshare and in the appropriate wiki it is described how to
calibrate this display by using a special software. For the capacitive
touchscreen, which I have, there is nothing like this and that this
display doesn't need to be calibrated is evidenced by any other system
like Raspbian, Volumio, max2play, Kodi. Only with pcp the touch function
is behaving faulty. Sorry.

The capacitive touch screen

https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/5inch_HDMI_LCD_(H)

can't be calibrated. Only the resistive can.

Behaviour is  like this: First the cursor (arrow) is far away from the
touchpoint. When I then swipe to the left edge of the screen, the cursor
stops there and is then is closer to the finger (touch point). If I then
wipe to the right, the cursor stays more close to the finger but when
the finger is about in the middle of the screen, the cursor starts to
advance to the right and then reaches the right edge of the screen
earlier than the finger. Similar behaviour when the finger is moved from
top to bottom and vice versa.

The screen is connected via the first HDMI port of the Raspberry and for
touch functionality it is also connected by USB.

The failure messages in dmesg seem to cause no problem which I didn't
had before with the display. It's only strange because this occurs only
in pcp 7 and not in any version of pcp 6. I only have the problem that
the cursor on the display is not at the point where I touch it, but this
also occurs with pcp 6 versions and not with Raspbian or other systems.

In my case it's definitely not a undervoltage issue. The Pi and the
USB-Hub are powered by a 10 Amp switching power supply, while the Allo
Digione and the Khadas Toneboard DAC are powered by a seperate linear
power supply.

Yesterday, surprisingly, I had no crash, but after the next crash I will
show here parts of a log file. I have to tell, that there also a
Squeezebox Radio in another room which was synchronized with Squeezelite
on the Pi. I stopped the synchronization and perhaps this could also
have an effect on the stability of squeezelite on the piCorePlayer???

Besides that, the Squeezebox Radio is a crazy thing, which shows strange
behaviour all the time, especially in connection with the wake up alarm
and also the display of current radio stations, but this is a topic for
another part of this forum.

I have those crashes frequently. More or less every day and sometimes a
few times a day. Sometimes even piCorePlayer is not anymore reachable
from the web interface. In this case Jivelite is still running and shown
on the touchscreen which is attached to my Pi. When I then try to choose
piCorePlayer from the Jivelite menue, it hangs.

In the other cases I have exactly the same behaviour as described. Last
time I looked at the squeezelite logfile and the problem seemed to be
caused by my Allo Digione which ceased to function.

This kind of crashes occured in any version of piCorePlayer, which I
used, i.e. 6.0, 6.1, 7.0, but seem to be more often with version 7.0.

I have 2 USB SSD drives with music connected via USB-Hub. Each has 1 TB.

I didn't use GPIO4 because Allo DigiOne seems to use it. Since that I
use GPIO27 instead and it was running correctly on piCorePlayer 6.1, as
mentioned.

I have also an issue with the power overlays in piCorePlayer 7. I use
the Pimoroni on/off-shim and when I push the button to drive the system
down it is driving down but not cuts the power to the pi completely. I
didn't have this in Version 6.1. There the power was successfully cut
completely after shutdown of the system. Something has definitely
changed...

I have piCorePlayer installed on Raspberry Pi 4 and the video output
appears on hdmi0. Is there a way to have it on hdmi1, the second hdmi
connector of the Raspberry Pi 4? 

Thanks for any advise

Hi Greg,

thank vou very much. I checked what you mentioned. In the extension
repository I didn't find any extension for fan control at the first
view. It is a rather large list and if the name of the extension doesn't
indicate the topic of fan control, it is hard to find. Anyway, I'm lucky
with my python script, which works quite well.

Another thing I have: piCorePlayer or it's services crash frequently.
Sometimes only squeezelite is gone, but shown to be running in the web
frontend, sometimes it's LMS, also shown to be running. In any case
restarting of the service faults.Sometimes piCorePlayer is down but
Jivelite still shows function. In this case it's not anymore possible to
connect to piCorePlayer by web frontend. Solution is to do a hardware
initiated restart.

Sice this happens so frequently, at least one times per day, my question
is, wether there were any possibility to log the events and find out
what causes the different crashes.

Thank you

In the meantime I put the python call into bootlocal.sh which caused
piCorePlayer not to run anymore but the fan started at boot. So I copied
an older version of mydata.tgz to the card and since that backup is done
without errors.

I already tried to start the python script by putting the call into the
user commands section before and it didn't work because I made something
wrong somehow. Did it again and now it's working fine. so every problem
is solved and temperature graph is like this:

After deleting my music library for a complete refresh my piCorePlayer
installation didn't run correctly anymore. So I did a complete new
install of piCorePlayer 6.1.0 with LMS 8.0.0. I now have the following
issue:

When I save a radio station in my preferences, there is shown neither a
image/label of the station nor any record cover of the music which is
actually playing. Instead of that there is only an antenna symbol shown.
Can anyone help me out of this.

I had the same problems. I had a SSD in an USB enclosure and connected
directly to my Raspberry Pi4 it was not possible to read my music files.
At this time I was using max2play. Then I bought a USB hub and
everything worked fine. The Raspberry obviously didn't supply enough
power to the SSD via the USB connector. When I then started with
piCoreplayer the SSD with the USB hub only worked on the USB 2
connector, not on USB 3. After all I bought another enclosure for the
SSD an then it worked also on the USB 3.

Watch this story in postings #123, #150, #175, #176 and #330

I recommend, using a USB hub with separate power supply to avoid power
problems with the direct connection to the Raspberry and if further
problems occur to get another SSD enclosure.

I prefer to do a backup of the sd card instead of saving different files
and copy them to a new installation. I tried this with Clonezilla, which
was not successful. Somehow it can't restore the partitions on a new sd
card. Also tried under Windows with win 32 disk imager. Problem there
was that the restored system on a new sd card was running slow and had
some strange behaviour.

Could one tell me, which program is the best to do a backup or image of
the sd card in the way that it also can be restored on sd cards with a
different size?

Thank you Paul, I'll check this on the next weekend since it's a very

have any ideas too. From my knowledge now, only the resistive touch
screen can be calibrated and not the capacitive, but will check.

Anyway, I love piCorePlayer and appreciate your fabulous work and kind

I bought this one now and it works fine on USB 3.0 via the Exsys USB 3.1
Hub. No more problems during boot.

I have another issue, which only occurs with piCorePlayer and not with
any other System I tested on the Raspberry Pi 4B. I have a 5" Waveshare
capacitive touchscreen (H). The display is conected to one HDMI-Port and
one USB-Port of the Raspberry. The USB conection is for the touch
function. The image is shown fine on the display but the touch function
lacks. I.e. the cursor is far away from the touchpoint

30121

In the config.txt I inserted the following:

hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_cvt 800 480 60 6 0 0 0
hdmi_drive=1

With any other system like Raspbian, Volumio and max2play the cursor is
always exactly at the touchpoint. What is different in piCorePlayer? Any
ideas?

Thank you Carsten.

I tried to solve the problem with the quirks as described in the
raspberry.org forum but this did change nothing. The USB 3.0/3.1
behaviour stayed to be the same. So for now my solution is to connect
the USB-Hub to the USB 2.0 connector of the Raspi, which is fast enough
to play music from my SSD which is a Sandisk Ultra 3D with 1TB. I use an
Inateck F2005 enclosure. Which brand/type of enclosure is yours which is
working fine?

I think the USB 3.0/3.1 problem has something to do with piCorePlayer
since other systems like volumio or max2play work well with the hub
connected to the USB 3.0 connectors of the Raspi.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: piCorePlayer 6.0.0

2020-03-21 Thread Clausi


I would like to come back to my posting #60.

After a reboot time (hour, minute) was not anymore there and boot took a
very long time as before. So the change of time server to my local
Fritzbox did not have the positive effect as I thougt before.

After some tests I found out the following: The problem is due to my SSD
fixed disc connected to the USB 3.0 connector of the Raspberry Pi 4B. In
my normal setup the SSD is connected to the USB 3.0 of the Raspi by a
Exsys USB 3.1 Hub. Connecting directly to the USB 3.0 of the Raspi does
not work since Picoreplayer does not boot completely in this case. I
think this is caused ba a lack of power. If the Hub is connected to the
USB 3.0 of the Raspi the bootup needs a lot of time and hour and minutes
are not present after bootup as mentioned in my posting before.

When I connect the SSD directly or via the Exsys Hub to a USB 2.0
connector of the Raspi everything works fine. 

My question now is, whether piCoreplayer has any problems with the USB
3.0 of the Rasberry Pi 4? Other systems like Volumio or max2play do not
show this behaviour.

Thank you very much for the advise. Didn´t know this section of the
setup.
I changed the time server to my local Fritzbox and now everything is
going fine. Bootup is much faster, even with the USB sda1 mount and my
Squeezebox Radio shows the time in standby mode now. I don´t why this
is working better because reaching pool.ntp.org was no problem when I
tried to reach it from console.

Doesn´t matter for me. Problem is solved.

Thank you paul-

I checked several threads and watched the dmesg but didn't find out
where the time server is set and how to check if connection to the
timeserver is possible. The bottom row of the web frontend is
"piCorePlayer | piCorePlayer v6.0.0 | www v0005 | linux
4.19.105-pcpCore_v8 | piCore v10.3pCP | Squeezelite v1.9.6-1206-pCP" and
as I understood at the end should time and date be shown but there is
nothing.

Would it be possible that you give me some advise where how to fix
this?

Another question: during boot it takes a very long time (approx. 2
minutes) to mount my sda1 which is a ssd disc of 1TB connected via a
Exsys USB 3.1 hub. Is that normal?

Thanks a lot

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: piCorePlayer 6.0.0

2020-03-12 Thread Clausi

I have a Squeezebox Radio, which is connected to the LMS of my
piCorePlayer by WIFI. In the setup it´s told to show a clock when in
standby mode (switched off by off-button). Since I´m running the
piCorePlayer setup the display is black without showing the clock.
Before I used max2play and I didn´t have this problem.

Could the reason be that during bootup of piCorePlayer I have the
message: Waiting for valid date before starting LMS, which is finished
by timeout? I think that without having actual date and time LMS can´t
supply this information to the radio and hence screen stays black during
standby. 

Am I right? In case, what can I change to avoid this problem?

PiCorePlayer is running on Rasperry Pi 4B with 2 Gb
