Here's a little Python script I threw together the other day, tested on
Armbian Linux and ChromeOS.  It will monitor any of your LMS endpoints,
with remote control switching.

Just for grins, installed Squeezeplay on my ChromeBox.  While it's
nicely suited to 7" touchscreens, it really isn't a desktop app.  The
Material Skin, saved as an "app", is far more intuitive and easier to
navigate with a mouse.

The Material Skin is excellent, can be made to "look and feel" just like
a native Linux app easily enough.  I use it on my ChromeBox and on my
iPhone most every day to control any/all of my squeezelite endpoints.  I
don't really see a need for a native app, at all.  YMMV.

LMS with the UPnP Bridge.  Any Sonos device will show up as a UPnP
renderer.  piCorePlayer may be the simplest way to set up LMS.  Jivelite
will provide the touchscreen capability.

Some flux, thin solder and a small chisel tip make it pretty easy to do.

You can use the amixer command to set volume without having to interact.
Just type amixer by itself to find the device you want to change, then
change its volume using set [device] 100%

Not sure this works for PiCorePlayer, but on the standard RaspberryPiOS

to disable the annoying cursor.

Yes, I've seen it, where I'm using the screen in landscape, but the
touch is set for portrait.

A simple example of how I fix it in code (Python in this case):


Code:


  x1 = dev.absinfo(ecodes.ABS_X).value
  y1 = dev.absinfo(ecodes.ABS_Y).value
  x=800-int((y1/480)*800)
  y=480-int(480-(x1/800)*480)
  



YMMV.

Is there any benefit of a 64-bit image on a device limited to 512Mb of

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] New RPi Zero 2 W

2021-11-02 Thread chicks

Soldered on a header, dropped it in place of a Zero.  Immediately
tripled the frames/second, and the CPU(s) are far less stressed while
running Squeezelite and a FFT spectrum display.  Overclocking a bit
brings the frame rate up to 30 fps, more than adequate for this
purpose.

I believe Chromecast Audio will drive headphones, do crossfade (via LMS

USB-Micro USB cable from a bog standard battery pack.  Size and weight
competitive with a Zero.

I don't remember having to set anything, but my Chromecast Audio turns
off its light after about 30 seconds after stopping play.  The Justboom
Digi Zero does the same, shutting off both the optical and coax outputs.
It's great, as my RME DAC will auto-switch to whichever input has an
active signal, between USB, Coax and Optical inputs.
