Scanned the documentation, it looks like all GPIO's are set to input on
power-on of the SoC, a few are pulled high (first eight and some others)
but most pulled low via the internal resistors. But I'll use an external
pull down resistor anyway to prevent random behaviour until that GPIO is
changed from input to output mode. It also makes the design more robust
for possible change in behaviour with newer SoC's.

I still need to verify on a proto board that the choosen GPIO wil not
flipflop between various states and output voltage levels from power-on,
booting until Squeezelite takes control of the GPIO. 

But we are getting off topic concerning the purpose of this thread.
Maybe I start a build thread in the DIY section.

Thanks Paul, will read, first scan of the document and the Broadcom
document referred to I have to choose wisely that not during power up
and boot the pin changes states, pull low to high etc otherwise the
relay to switch the PSU starts rattling….:-) 

Well, any way, will take out my proto board and test.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0

2021-12-07 Thread hsmeets


Hi,

Question about the GPIO Power On/Off setting on the squeezelite settings
page.

36366

I understand that it toggles the GPIO when the powerbutton for that
player is pressed in LMS. 

But how does it behave when I boot the RPI and squeezelite starts. Does
it toggle the GPIO to the actual power state (in LMS for that player)
too?

Background: I'm building a (headless) player (Zero 2W + DAC + Headphone
amp) and want to add a status LED to show that the system has booted and
Squeezelite has contacted LMS and is ready to go. 

Thanks,

Huib

Hi,

Too many hits using search, but probably asked before, so please be
gentle :D

Question: What is the difference between the GPIO setting on the Tweaks
page and on the Squeezelite settings page? 

The one on the tweaks page happens once at shutdown?

36364

and the one on the Squeezelite refers to the power up/down toggle button
in LMS for the player?

Maybe this is already reported by others:

I did install a Hifiberry DAC 2 PRO and choosing from the list

36171

I initially choose the "HiFiBerry DAC2HD (and Pro)" as I have a DAC 2
PRO but that does not work.
One has to pick the "HifiBerry DAC+ (and Pro, AMP2)".

As both mention 'Pro' that might me confusing, maybe change "HiFiBerry
DAC2HD (and Pro)" to "HiFiBerry DAC2HD"
and "HifiBerry DAC+ (and Pro, AMP2)" to "HifiBerry DAC +Pro, 2Pro,
AMP2"

Ronnie: Thanks a bunch! It booted and connected wireless.

I did not test which of the 2 changes (or both) is critical, I did both
at once:

Moved PI02 right after PI0 in config.txt and did a chown and chmod to
the firmware file to make it the same again as the other files.

My gut feeling says the position in the config.txt is critical.

Thanks again!

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

2021-11-13 Thread hsmeets


No Joy yet with a Zero 2 either. 

Stupidly I don't have a small HDMI connector at hand so can't see what's
going on. Hoped on a similar painless headless setup of PcP as with my
other RPI's. 
Will go out and get a small HDMI connector soon.

What I did:
0) flashed the PCP8 32b image on a 16Gb sdcard
1) edited the config.txt and added the PI02 section (with same kernel as
PI3)
2) created a wpa_supplicant.conf for my wireless network (same as with
my other RPI's)
3) added the bcm2710-rpi-zero-2.dtb to the boot folder
4) wget the firmware from the repo.picore etc etc.
5) replaced the firmware-rpi-wifi.tcz in the tce/optional folder

Questions:

Does it matter were the PI02 section is inserted between PI0 en PI4 into
config.txt?

Does the firmware-rpi-wifi.tcz.md5.txt also need to be updated as
firmware-rpi-wifi.tcz has changed or is it ignored?

Does file ownership matter? On the root partition the Ubuntu that I used
to access the root partition did show owner "1001" and after replacing
the firmware it was 'root'. I did chmod the file to be read by all,
owner, group and others.

When I power the Zero the small LED lights up, flashes once then is
steady for another second or so, flashes once more and then it stays on.
After giving it some time it does not show up on the network/LMS

Thanks!

Funny as it reports itself as 6.1.

An option could be to write a driver for that display for LCDproc, then
you could maybe use slimmer as slimmer uses LCDproc.

and buttons/data in the lower 1/3.

Yes, that was what I did. I had 192.168.0.50 as fixed ip setup in PcP
(with problems as described) and 168.0.50 is outside my router's DHCP
range. But eventually reverted PcP to DHCP and went into my router to
have DHCP always bind 192.168.0.50 to the MAC of the RPi. It fixed
immediately the issue I experienced.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 3.00

2017-01-02 Thread hsmeets

A strange issue for the developers of picoreplayer (or iPeng). 

Until today I had LMS running on a Mac mini, the older 7.7.5 version, I
use LMS only as an intermediair to a streaming service. I had this RPI 2
B on the shelf so why not use it for that and do away with Mac mini. So
the other day i installed PcP 3.02 and did the necessary setup and all
was fine.

Then I switched PcP to a fixed IP address, still everything okay. Next I
picked up my tablet and used iPeng to control change the music and than
it happened: About every 2 minutes iPeng updated it screen and for a
brief moment it looked like the SB Touch disappeared and a few seconds
later it appeared again and the track that was playing restarted from
the beginning. 

I downloaded the PcP image again and installed all again, set PcP to a
fixed IP, all was fine again: music played without problems, I used the
classic web interface to navigate and played a few albums. Later that
evening i picked up the tablet and as soon as I used iPeng the whole
disappear/appear and track restart nonsense started over again.

I re-installed iPeng but still the same problem. Even after iPeng was
de-installed the whole disappear/appear and track restart continued. 

As last resort I switched back to the default to get an IP via DHCP from
my router/switch and lo and behold: no issues anymore from the last few
hours.

Strange issue. Either something in PcP of iOS/iPeng.

Thanks for 2.04! Looks like my LMS will be moving from a Mac Mini to a
RPI in one of the next weeks.

One thing I noticed, I could be wrong though, I activated/installed the
ALSA equalizer but after disabling it (and a reboot) I had no sound,
enabling the equalizer again restored the sound. Maybe something sticky
in the configs after disabling the equalizer?

2015-11-30 Thread hsmeets

Steen, Greg, Ralphy,

Got myself the RPi 7" touchscreen recently to play around with and gave
it a spin with pricoreplayer/jivelite: Briljant! Well Done!

Some idea's/suggestions to improve the joggler skin (or fork it to make
it a PcP skin)

- improve the onscreen keyboard to make more use of the screen
real-estate
- enlarge the small album art and menu icon's in the lists, thus also
less lines per screen (from 9 back to 6 or 7?) that would make it easier
to read and to select via a finger touch
- optionally display playlist and menu's as list but as table of larger
icons (as e.q. iPeng can do). 
- Add some native 'screensavers' other then 'now playing' and the blank
screen.

Also check out this video I made, it possibly is not a jivelite bug but
related to the Qobuz plugin but at 2:40 in the video I try to select
Handel's Watermusic but it selects 2 or 3 lines belowgoing out the
list and returning fixed the issue. https://youtu.be/wlo9XE4Oec0

Cheers and keep up the good work!

Greg, Steen,

FWIW: I didn't look at the jivelite version and lua code you include
with PCP, the one I toy around with on my laptop had no wallpaper for
the 800x480/Joggler skin which I assume that is also used for the RPI
touch screen. 

I took the wallpapers from the fab4_xx range and scaled them to
800x480 and saved them as PCP_

I made a small tweak to the wallpaperchooser lua code so that it picks
up the PCP_ prefixed files for the 800x480 screen



Code:


  if screenWidth == 320 and screenHeight == 240 then
  pattern = 'BB_'
  elseif screenWidth == 240 and screenHeight == 320 then
  pattern = 'JIVE_'
  elseif screenWidth == 480 and screenHeight == 272 then
  pattern = 'FAB4_'
  elseif screenWidth == 800 and screenHeight == 480 then
  pattern = 'PCP_'
  else
  pattern = 'HD_'
  end

Huib

The webpages look a bit strange: the menu under the logo is dark-purple
text on black background, hard to read. The same applies for the dark
blue text for the player controls. Also that pCP text etc looks a bit
un-tidy. I'm using latest Safari and OSX version.

Hi Steen, Greg,

I did an insitu upgrade of 1.19 to 1.19L. The upgrade worked and after
some 40 seconds the music resumed to play again.

Looking at dmesg output there is still that message about the

issue and the insitu upgrade does not fix this?  Wil it be gone when I
download the 1.19L image and write it to the SD card myself instead of
the insitu?

IIRC i did the following steps: activate the wifi but leave the SSID etc

At the danger of going offtopic as this is about Picoreplayer, but after
having said that:

http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/41606B.pdf

This is the datasheet, chapter 4.1.3. table 4-1 on page 14 says mouse
mode sends absolute coordinates.

Have you tried what happened after the calibration but in Mouse mode
instead of Digitizer mode? I see some youtube vid's where moving and
pressing can be done in one action.

The display you use does 480x272, did you check that the correct
resolution was detected by Picore/Tinycore as the HDMI controller you
use is initially set to report something else (800x480), it might also
explain why the mouse moves fast because of that mismatch what it really
is and what the OS thinks it is.


Code:


  This driver is designed specifically as a small and easy to use display 
driver for our 40-pin TTL displays. In particular, we suggest it for use with 
single board computers (or desktop/laptops!) with DVI/HDMI output like the 
Raspberry Pi or BeagleBone Black. You can power the driver over USB and then 
feed it video via the HDMI port. It's a very small board so great for tucking 
into an enclosure. It can drive our 4.3, 5.0 or 7.0 displays but we really 
only recommend the 5 or 7 800x480 as some computers do not like the low 
resolution of the 4.3 and the TFP401 does not contain a video scaler, it will 
not resize/shrink video!
  
  We ship this board with an 800x480 resolution EDID so it will be 
auto-detected at that resolution. For advanced users, the EDID can be 
reprogrammed using our example Arduino code. Or, for computers that use linux, 
you can always just force the resolution to whatever display you have connected.

 A (hopefully) minor problem popped up as i got the screen working: it is

 My Problem here is: it also uses some kind of mouse acceleration. If the

 to the right side.
 How can i calibrate this (or switch of the acceleration maybe) ?

Yes, most of these touchscreens/drivers emulate a mouse. Sounds like
yours is in relative mode (instead of absolute mode) or when in absolute
mode the mapping between display and touchscreen coordinates is not
correct. Adafruit's documentation is your first go to I guess.

2015-04-19 Thread hsmeets

Hi,

I (tried) to upgrade from 1.19 to 1.19I, the RPI 2 version.

Following:

Insitu update failed: after downloading and unpacking it failed, ended
with a generic error that there was an error (but no further
description) on the webpage


I continued with downloaded the image and put it on the SD Card.

Following was observed:

newconfig.txt to connect directly with wifi: 

I entered my wifi data and saved the file to the SDcard. When booting it
did not connect to my wifi network. After hooking up a network cable and
accessing the picoreplayer webconfig I found that it copied the SSID
from newconfig.txt including the surrounding quotes. After correcting
this it still failed to connect. I reentered the wifi password as I
suspected that here also the quotes. That solved it and the wifi
connection was up and running.

Squeezelite setings:

1) on the squeezelite config loglevel all=debug and logfile test8 are
set

2) changes do not survive a boot

I changed the output device to my HifiBerry card and removed the debug
info. PcP says it activated it and saved the settings. But after a
reboot the settings are back at the analog output and the debug entries
have also returned. (changed wifi setting did survive the boot btw).
Several attempts failed.

3) Tweaks page cannot be accessed (already reported by others).

4) judging the dmesg output: the filesystem dirty bit is no longer an
issue as it was in v1.19


For now I reverted back to 1.19awaiting 1.19J :-)

Thanks,

Huib

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCoPlayer = Squeezelite on Microcore linux. .An embedded OS in RAM with Squeezelite

2015-03-21 Thread hsmeets

Just an experience I want to share for those that run into the same:

My hardware: RPI 2, HifiBerry AMP+, EDIMAX EW-7811UN Wifi. 

For the first several days it played without any hickup but I had it on
wired ethernet. A few days later I removed the network cable and let it
play over Wifi for half an hour before I switched it off. Last Thursday
I started to listen again and all of a sudden, early in the evening the
music started to stutter like mad. I restarted the RPI but no luck. I
mostly stream flac from Qobuz, I tried a lower bitrate, no success,
still stuttering. Mhmm, evening, just after dinner, more traffic from
neighbors? I never had this issue with the Classic, Touch and Boom that
also connect via Wifi. I checked what Wifi networks are in the air from
my neighbors and found that many (8 out of 12), just like me use channel
11. I switched my router/accesspoint to a channel nobody was on and from
then on no stuttering anymore.

Seems like the EDIMAX 7811 (or the driver) is not fully stable when the
channel is crowed. So if you experience stuttering check out your wifi
environment before you start yelling and swearing at PicorePlayer/RPi

 Thanks for the information but still not understanding. If it was really
 I2S all you need is 3 or 4 wires and maybe a few resistors.

Using the GD-Audio board to convert the single ended ttl signal to a
differential signaling (LVDS) makes the transport of I2S over long
distance (more than a few cm/inches) much more robust. HDMI connector
and cables are good choices for LVDS transport.

 Hello again :D
 
 I had the same experience years ago with my Transporter. After many
 years of faultless operation it suddenly got the dreaded stuttering.
 After many painful months, I setup a laptop to monitor the nearby
 wireless networks and discovered, like you, everyone was using the some
 default channel. So I picked a channel with the maximum separation from
 the others and the problem went away. It been near perfect ever since.
 My microwave oven still causes interruptions to the Transporter and
 piCorePlayer.
 
 Years later, I had a bit of an interest in wireless/routers/modems so I
 have quite a few on hand. When testing the wireless software of
 piCorePlayer I setup 4 or 5 wireless routers within a meter or two of
 the test piCorePlayer. To my surprise, no problems whatsoever. So now I
 am not so sure about my original conclusion. :confused:

Hi Greg, also hello again :-)

I think it is not as such the presence of multiple networks on the same
channel but the actual usage. AFAiK 1 wifi channel is 1 databus and only
one device can have access. As long as the neighbors do not use it (no
internet surfing, no downloading) you have the whole channel for your
self. As soon as the neighbors start using the same channel too you
start to loose bandwitdh as you have to share it with your neighbors.

 Hi hsmeets,
 
 So is the HDMI output of the GD-Audio board different from the HDMI

 regards

They are (ver) different. They just use the same connector and cable but
any similarity ends here.

HDMI sends video data, R, G, B over three pairs of wires (differential)
and sends it as serial data. Sound data is multiplexed with the video
data and that sound data is just another bitstream and can be anything
from plain PCM to one of the multichannel formats.  

I2S, via HDMI, uses the three R, G, B line pairs to transport the 3 I2S
signals: autodata, the bit clock and the word clock. There is not
official standard which signal is on which line/pin and what the signal
levels are.

According to the wiring diagram in the picorelcd zip file it uses RPI

as the player is switched on/off in LMS.

Ps.
As the output of the GPIO is 3.3V and limited to a few mA I suggest you
use a transistor to switch/drive the led from the 5V and wire the led
directly on pin 11.

 OK. And this surprises me, it can handle DoP over the HDMI input.
 But.
 
 DirectStream uses an HDMI cable to transfer I2S data. This data can
 only be used with
 another compatible component, such as the PerfectWave transport, and
 will not work in
 other HDMI equipment as the I2S format incorporated does not comply with
 the HDMI
 standards.
 
 So it uses a HDMI cable but isn't HDMI compliant. Have fun with
 this. ;)

I2S signals where never intended to travel long distance, just a few
inches between IC's. Somehow it has become en-voque to use I2S to
interconnect over longer distances (between e.q. streamer and DAC. To
make that possible the signals are converted from TTL to some form of
LVDS (low-voltage-differential-signaling). UTP and HDMI cables are often
used for the physical connection, but the connection is indeed nowhere
near HDMI. Audio on HDMI is multiplexed with the video signal. Those
that use a HDMI cable for transporting I2S have their own brand specific
pin use and signal levels etc. 

You cannot connect the RPI HDMI to a something like a DAC that gets I2S
signals via a HDMI connector.

Hi Triode,

brownnose level=severe
I recently 'discovered' this effort of yours: many kudo's! this is great
stuff for all obvious reasons.

Apologies that I might have not read all posts in this thread and it
might be answered already. But I have a question: 

Triode stated that this will be and stay a headless player. But likely
there are people similar to me that think of building a dedicated player
and would like to have some UI on the device like a simple LCD with a
few buttons/rotery encoder or maybe a full fledged UI on a TFT
touchscreen. I know of Squeezepad/Ipeng (I use them), but a hardware
player with LCD and a few knobs would be what I would like too. 

Obviously such code needed for UI does not have to go into the
Squeezelite code as we can run a program in parallel to query LMS for
status of Squeezelite and operate Squeezelite via LMS, just the same as
Squeezepad/iPeng do. 

So, the questions is, has someone already looked into this? Maybe work
has started to write some code to implement a UI using an 2 or 4 line
LCD and a few buttons/rotary encoder linked to a
Raspberry/Cubieboard/Arduino/.. or any other small system to offers some
GPIO pins to hookup LCD and buttons? Would you use the CLI or the JSON
interface in such case? I have myself no need for a graphical interface,
the 2 or 4 line interface of the Classic or Transporter would suffice.

My coding techniques are rusty to say the least to start such endeavor
from scratch, don't even want to think about writing multithreaded code

Somehow the network adapter in the server had a problem.

I couldn't ping the SB from the server but the SB was pingable from
other computers in the network. And I could also reach these computers
from the server. Just the SB was not reachable.

Rebooted the server but still no succes, but then I thought: i haven't
powered it really off so maybe the network card itself is at fault. 

Succes! after a real power-off and power-on the SB and the Server talk

WEP (i know) encryption, it gets correct IP/Gateway/DNS thru DHCP from
my router and it gives a signal strength reading. It doesnot find the
SS on the network as it did when I initially installed the SB3. I have
to enter manually the IP adress of the box running SS.

It failes to connect to SS. 

Softsqueeze however does connect to the SS and plays music.

I'm running Ubuntu 6.10, SS version 6.5.2, and SB3 firmware 81. 

Even after upgrading from 6.5.1 to 6.5.2 it ran all those weeks without
any trouble.

The only thing was that the previous evening I pulled the latest ubuntu
updates (apt-get update/upgrade). Could that be the problem?

I haven't yet tried to hook up the SB3 thru ethernet.

I'm stumped, even after the SB3 factory reset and following setup and
rebooting the box that runs the SS it still does not connect

Anybody a clue?

does the all-black SB sound better than the white SB?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Minimum CPU/mem req for Slimserver without X

2007-02-19 Thread hsmeets

Hi,

I'm running slimserver on a VIA mini-ITX 500Mhz rig, linux (ubuntu),
alongside the usual web-, mail and fileserver tasks.
No performance problems. Flac's are served up without any hickups.
