Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: piCorePlayer 4.0.0
I have just upgraded my Qobuz subscription, to the new 'Studio' hi-res streaming-only subscription. All works fine except that, after playing hi-res stuff, playing non-hi-res instead (and possibly a different hi-res rate) results in silence until/unless I power pCP off and on again (rebooting is not necessary). It appears that the format/rate is not being changed. I don't know if this is internal to the pCP, or due to some failure to communicate with my PM7005 amp's DAC, connected via USB (are setup messages exchanged with external USB DACs?). Do I need to do some USB Audio tweaks to fix this? If so, which settings? I notice that, on the Tweaks page, in the USB Audio tweaks section, it's stated: "The USB controller can have issues with external DACs. If set to 0 the new FIQ_FSM driver is disabled and the old NOP FIQ is used." But it also states: "This is needed for Emotiva XMC-1 DAC." Could this also be necessary for my amp's DAC? TIA.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: piCorePlayer 4.0.0
Using the DAC in my PM7005 amplifier, alsamixer shows the default PCM Playback level as maximum, 0.00dB, coloured red on the slider graphic. I can, of course, adjust this downwards (all the way to -127dB), but I don't hear any subjective difference in audio level. What, if anything, is this actually adjusting? Is maximum here actually a 'good thing' for a digital output? Living room: piCorePlayer, with USB to Marantz PM7005, TDL RTL3 speakers. Dining room: SB Boom. Kitchen: SB Radio 1/4 with battery.

I had somehow missed the 'Configure' button, and didn't realise that there was anything to configure. I found that the output device was (still) set for the hifiberry card, so now I've set that to "sysdefault:CARD=PM7005". Until I got the device definition right (apparently), starting play on the iPad would stop Shairport-sync, and I'd have to restart it, only for it to stop again. The target would also intermittently disappear from the iPad. Oddly, "hw:..." wouldn't work, whereas that's the form that works for Waveinput. I haven't set anything in the output control field, because I don't know what I would put there.

I'm using LMS on pCP. Things I have changed since this did work are: the pCP output to the DAC in my PM7005 amplifier, from hifiberry digi coax, to RPi USB; I have installed Waveinput.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: piCorePlayer 4.0.0
I have the piCorePlayer and LMS running on the same RPi (3). I put my music library on a USB flash drive, plugged into the RPi, and pointed the piCorePlayer's LMS at that. Playback only on one player is fine, but when attempting to play a 24-bit/44.1kHz FLAC track on the piCorePlayer and then sync a SB Radio to that, the playback becomes intermittent, sometimes stopping for a few seconds on the pCP, other times on the Radio. As though a buffering problem. By elimination, I found that it wasn't due to the network, whether WiFi or wired to the RPi (but always WiFi to the Radio); using another LMS on a Windows server, with the music library on a disk on that server, sync'd playback is fine (and using WiFi for RPi and Radio). The problem therefore appears to be with using the USB flash for my library on the RPi. But this is supposed to have a read speed of 130MB/s. What might the problem be? What can I do about it? (to be able to use the USB flash on the RPi, and sync'd players). TIA. Living room: SB Touch, with coax to: Marantz PM7005, TDL RTL3 speakers. Dining room: SB Boom.

I was using the DAC in my Marantz via USB, but found that piCoreplayer needed restarting each time after the Marantz switched itself off, if not used for half an hour. So, I decided to add the Hifiberry Digi+ so that I could use the coax connection instead, as I do for my SBT. If this seems a bit 'unnecessary', then consider that actually I don't even need another squeezebox at all, but just wanted to make a potential direct replacement for the SBT (which, as I've said, I connect to the amp via coax), for the heck of it / on the off-chance that the SBT dies. And the Digi+ is only about 30 quid. Living room: SB Touch, with coax to: Marantz PM7005, TDL RTL3 speakers. Dining room: SB Boom. Kitchen: SB Radio (1/3), with battery.

I have just assembled a RPi + FLIRC + RPi 7" display + Hifiberry Digi+, and am using the 2nd method. I've ordered a short (15cm) cable for this. The Digi+ prevents use of the 3rd method, and the 1st method seems overkill. Although I'm not using a 2A PSU; the total current being drawn from the USB supply is about 0.95A.

I discovered that, if I install v1.2.6 GUI, use flirc_util, and select the 'dfu' command, then 'default' firmware is installed into the FLIRC - although I'm still confused, because it also refers to '2.6' (rather than 1.2.6); some confusion (at least on my part) between GUI version and firmware version (and see my post above).

So, with a Sublime subscription, you can stream stuff from Qobuz in HD (192k etc.)? Is this HD streaming only for HD music you've bought, or for HD music generally?

A restart via the GUI restores audio. Is the USB-DAC connection somehow being dropped when not in active streaming use? Otherwise, the sound is excellent, via the DAC in the PM7005 so, if this were my primary player (i.e. if I didn't have a Touch, connected to the PM7005 via coax), I would be reluctant to add a USB-DAC board.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer = Squeezelite on Microcore linux. .An embedded OS in RAM with Squeezelit
I hadn't really paid much attention to this (Pi as a squeeze player), until I happened to see another thread where it was recommended as a replacement player (not that I need one yet, fortunately). I have a RPi B+, so decided to give it a go; I downloaded piCoreplayer, dropped it onto SD, plugged RPi into power and network and browsed to to the GUI (RPi/piCoreplayer obtained IP address from DHCP). I then connected RPi to my Marantz PM7005 (DAC built in), and found the player in the GUI squeezelite output settings. After a restart, I used SqueezePlay running on laptop to control the new player. Wow, I'm impressed; after about 10 minutes I have another squeezeplayer for about £20 that just works, and works well. I don't know yet how many bits it's sending (or can send) to the Marantz at what rate yet; I guess I'll found out shortly. Living room: SB Touch, with coax to: Marantz PM7005, TDL RTL3 speakers.
