Update. PcP works smoothly with Macbook pro as controller.  I tried
squeezepad and it worked instantly, starting on the last song played and
control options being simple and intuitive. The problem now is that when
I disconnect the test setup ie. Ethernet, HDMI keyboard and mouse, and
connect the pi3 etc into my stereo, it wont connect with the ipad or
macbook. At boot up with hdmi to monitor, wlan tests are successful and
show as connected! But Neither the Ipad nor the  macbook can connect
wirelessly!?!!!

I tried going into pcp wireless setup and turning off the wireless and
rebooting. But although wireless does turn on at boot up, there is still
no connection ie pcp does not show up on the ipad or macbook screen?

Are there other ipad users experiencing problems with pcp and the LMS
interface?

This is interesting! I can access pcp using my ipad pro, and can select
songs erratically, although they wont play. In response to huxmut's
question, I had not even considered accessing the pcp on my macbook
until now!

Well, the answer is yes, not only can I access the pcp via a webpage on
my mac, I can select songs, play them, delete, pause, add as well as all
the other controls I had with my initial installation of earlier
versions of PCP, Squeezelite and LMS! 
I have just rebooted PCP while typing this message to confirm before
sending the response to your question. This looks encouraging, it looks
like the issue could be ipad based?!?

I updated to PcP version 4.1.0 thats when problems started. 

So went back to PcP 3.5.0. But after 3.5.0  running with LMS standard
did not solve the problem, thought the the Audio version would solve the
problem.  But still no luck. So I will revert to Standard again.

The power supply was ordered from the official Pi supplier in UK and
came with the pi3+ dac cables etc. and a complete set of plugs for USA,
UK Europe and Asia.

Sorry, I should have provided system information.

I have rp 3 with Dac-pro installed in a metal case. The unit is
connected with van den hul rcas to my Onkyo P304 pre to Onkyo M504 power
amp to Energy Veritas bookshelf speakers. The system is then controlled
using an ipad pro.

After the software upgrade, problems started. Since then, I have removed
the rpi and dac and connected it to a monitor with keyboard and mouse.
This way I can remove the sd card and do formats and installations or
use insitu options. All system options and pages are accessed and
controlled through the ipad.

I am aware that with mouse and keypad connected as well as HDMI to
monitor, that power limitations can cause issues, although this hasn't
been a problem before, I have noted that at boot, a power message does
pop up on the monitor. Even with usb keyboard and mouse removed, the
problem persists.

Hi,
Thanks for the quick response! :-)

Yes, Squeezelite is running and piCoreplayer can be seen in the 'Choose
Player' drop down box. 

To respond to your questions I rebooted piCoreplayer and there has been
a subtle change! I notice that now the 'Choose Player' drop down box
intermittently offers piCoreplayer then switches to Squeezelite as an
option, which was not available before. However the problem has not
changed in any way.

While the scanned music on both usb and network mounts are still
visible; the following persists:
1) Selecting a song needs to be 'forced' for want of a better word by
repeated taps on the select button
2) Selected song may play for three seconds, then stop (counter
returns to 0.00) 
3)Trying to delete the list of unplayable songs using the 'X' does not
work. (Or any other buttons for that matter) as if piCoreplayer is
frozen or hanging.

Thanks again.

Hi, I have been running Pcp version 3.5 on my Pi3 with Dac+ for a few
months. Since trying to update to the latest Pcp, LMS has only been able
to scan and recognise music on my usb and network drives but no songs
are able to be played. I have tried a fresh format and etch of Pcp using
3.5. All went well. Then updated LMS which appeared to have been
successful. However, although the list of songs on usb and network
drives are visible I am still unable get any music playing. Tapping on
the play button does not transfer the selected song to the playlist or
start the song playing!?!

What have I overlooked? Any assistance and suggestions will be
appreciated.
