I had to go through this same exercise a few years ago for the same reason and ended up compiling my own version of squeezelite to get all the options I wanted enabled on the PogoPlug. I can't remember exactly which compile options I went for as it was so long ago, but the PogoPlug definitely has enough horsepower to handle the upsampling without breaking a sweat, so you should be good there. paulster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Why is this causing a problem? The values in the source data are not being changed, but you are getting an extra one or two least significant bytes which are all zero, which will just be ignored. The only possible downside I can see would be your DAC reporting 24-bit on a 16-bit file if it had a display, but the music wouldn't be any different. Receiver stuck at blue LED state after reboot?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeeze on Arch - developer version
I've been wondering where Adrian is. I hope all is well with him. I think he knew all about the legal issues Clive was happening, and SoA was designed to avoid hosting binaries in order to get around that problem, so unless the legal issues have a wider reach I would be surprised if that's the issue at hand. I did wonder if he was holidaying somewhere, but he has been off the grid for a while now. That's why I hope all is well.

Just out of interest, is SoA using a realtime version of the kernel, or the stock one? And are there any other performance tweaks included? I just tried an Arch image in place of my aging Debian RT one on my Armv5 hardware and was experiencing some occasional pops before I gave up and reverted for the time being. I could try the entire SoA build and see how that works out, but since these boxes run Squeezelite and nothing else, a bare-bones install ought to be sufficient for me.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeeze on Arch - developer version
I've asked this in the Squeezelite thread but since I'm running Arch on my test machine (albeit a vanilla install rather than Adrian's scripted build), is anybody else seeing Squeezelite pass a MAC address of 00:00:00:00:00:00 to LMS on bootup? Starting the service manually passes the hardware MAC, but starting it on bootup always passes this all-zero MAC.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeezelite - a small headless squeezeplay emulator for linux (alsa only)
I posted before that I'd built an Arch Linux armv5 image and that when the Squeezelite service started at boot it was sending a MAC address of 00:00:00:00:00:00 to the LMS server, whereas when I manually started the service it was sending the correct MAC address. I've changed my service file to be the same as that from the SoA distribution and I'm still seeing the same thing. I don't want to hardcode the MAC address, because I want to be able to deploy this image across a number of machines. Anyone have any thought on why I'm seeing this, and are people seeing the same on SoA as well, or is everyone using hardcoded MAC addresses for the players?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeezelite - a small headless squeezeplay emulator for linux (alsa only)
Generally I don't go above 96kHz material, but I've just ripped some Blu-ray audio which is 192kHz. Squeezelite runs fine on my DACs that support 192kHz natively, but on my ones which only support 96kHz I get a stutter when I first play an album, as sox kicks in to downsample. I get a second or two of audio, then a rebuffer, and then it plays perfectly for the remainder of the album. Presumably I can resolve this by increasing one of the buffers in Squeezelite, and if I increase it across all of my players (even on the 384kHz DACs) I should still be able to maintain good synchronization ability. Which is the correct buffer parameter to be increasing, and what would the default value be, so I know where to start from? Thanks Paul Two track 1's and no track 2 after a scan for new and changed?

I'm using VAMP as the base image, so Andrew had already created a script
/etc/network/if-up.d/vampstartup that gets fired when the network
interfaces come up and calls /opt/vamp/startup.sh.
I modified it because on Debian 7 it was getting called twice, so I
amended it as follows:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
# VAMP startup
# Don't bother to do anything for lo.
if [ "$IFACE" = lo ]; then
exit 0
fi
# Only run from ifup.
if [ "$MODE" != start ]; then
exit 0
fi
if mkdir /var/lock/vampstartup
then
/opt/vamp/startup.sh &
fi
exit 0
This relies on your OS deleting the contents of /var/lock at startup, so
you want to check that. Otherwise it'll only launch your startup.sh
script the first time it boots.
/opt/vamp/startup.sh does a number of things, but the key is that it
starts SqueezeLite. I took the SqueezeLite command out and instead
created another script which I call from startup.sh backgrounded.
So it startup.sh I have a line as follows:
Code:
/opt/vamp/btsqueeze.sh &
btsqueeze.sh looks like this:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# SqueezeLite on Bluetooth script
deviceaddress="00:11:22:33:44:55"
devicename="BTDEVICENAME"
pid=0
squeezelite_started=false

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Bluetooth dongle to use with SqueezeLite
So it seems I've cracked it now. There were two problems. One is that I'm using the VAMP image as a base, and had to upgrade the Debian distro from Debian 6 to 7 to get all the Bluetooth utilities. This changed the behaviour of the network interface up script, so it was getting called twice, therefore kicking off the VAMP startup script (and my Bluetooth and SqueezeLite scripts) twice. That meant changing the script logic a little so it would only run once at startup. The second was just allowing time for the connection before starting SqueezeLite, so I added a sleep command to sleep for 5 seconds before bluez-test-audio connect and then 1 second afterward before getting into the SqueezeLite monitoring loop, and now it seems pretty robust.

If I put the same command at the beginning of the script it doesn't work. Have you had any issue with having to wait for any services to come up before you can pair, and how did you deal with that?

When I run hcitool con it briefly shows the device connected, but it doesn't last. hcitool auth 00:11:22:33:44:55 comes back with HCI authentication request failed: Input/output error Before I get into configuring the output device in /etc/asound.conf is there a foolproof way to know whether I've got it properly pairing?

I am running a VAMP image so I need to check the kernel version. It's definitely one of Andrew's builds though, so it's likely to be this one. I'll do some more digging after work, but do you happen to know if there's any kind of ready cross-reference between this modules list and the different chipsets on the BT dongles, so I can find one that I know I already have a module available for?

What is the target bt device? I'm using a PogoPlug E02, and the Bluetooth device is a Creative D200. I'm not expecting plug and play, but if there are dongles that are reliable versus problematic then that was step 1 of my process, so at least I'd know I'm in with a fighting chance of success once I get the scripting piece done.

[SlimDevices: Unix] Bluetooth dongle to use with SqueezeLite
Does anybody have any recommendations on Bluetooth dongles that work reliably with SqueezeLite? I'm running Debian on an armv5 platform on the box I want to try this on, and I'd rather pick up a Bluetooth dongle that's going to work right off the bat, rather than have to play with different hardware to get something working.

I had my LMS server shut down for a while yesterday while I was vacuuming the databases. When I restarted it my hardware players reconnected but next time I went to play something on one of my Squeezelite players I noticed that they hadn't reconnected.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeezelite - a small headless squeezeplay emulator for linux (alsa only)
Adrian A couple of recent observations before you put out a new release. I don't have any Logitech hardware set up any more to directly compare, but I've encountered two similar issues that could be a Squeezelite issue, or LMS. First is that sometimes when I open an internet radio stream I get white noise. Open another stream and then go back to the first and it's almost certainly okay. Second issue, which I've only seen once, was when seeking through a track to a particular point in time I got the same issue, and then another quick seek resolved it. I'm wondering if it's managing to start playback on bits 8-15 or 16-23 of a 24-bit word rather than always starting at bit 0. Two track 1's and no track 2 after a scan for new and changed?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeezelite - a small headless squeezeplay emulator for linux (alsa only)
Adrian I just tried a 192kHz 24 bit for the first time on Squeezelite connected to a HiFimeDIY Sabre U2 DAC, which is limited to 96kHz. I was expecting that sox would kick in to downsample to 96kHz on my LMS server, but instead all I got was horribly loud static! Adding -r 96000 fixed the problem, but it won't resample down without that. The DAC was plugged in prior to starting Squeezelite too. Is this a bug, or do I have an incorrect assumption about how it should work? I thought it read the max rate off the DAC and reported that back to LMS as the corresponding max sample rate, provided that the DAC was connected when Squeezelite was started.

Good spot, John. It's interesting that they have two very similar DACs, the Sabre USB and the Sabre U2, which is the async one. And yet both claim to use the same DAC and USB receiver.

You can get 96kHz but not 88.1kHz quite commonly on devices that use the Tenor chipset so a nice amendment to the SqueezeLite -r option would be a parameter that specifies all of the available rates you can accommodate downstream.

I'm still finding that if you pull the network cable on your playback device (in my case on a PogoPlug) SqueezeLite drops connection to the server even after the box re-DHCPs.

Adrian I haven't tested this myself yet but I've seen it mentioned by two people in other threads that when their LMS server goes to sleep the SqueezeLite client doesn't auto-reconnect after it comes back up and they've been having to restart their client devices, whereas the hardware players just reconnect.

Another really minor enhancement: can you get it to return the SqueezeLite version as a firmware value to LMS like the hardware players and SqueezePlay do?

One other minor thing I noticed today when I was tidying up some cabling is that when I pulled the ethernet cable from my Linux box running Squeezelite and reconnected it, the player lost connection to LMS. Squeezelite was still running but wasn't available as a player. Perhaps in a future release you could look at maybe getting it to reconnect transparently. It's really not a big deal for ethernet users I wouldn't have thought, but could be useful for users on wireless that might be more prone to dropouts. paulster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Yes, but if you look at the web interface on a file with too much gain you'll see that LMS actually specifies that the RG has been limited, so you should receive the limited value that will ensure no clipping. I presume that's happening okay, since that's critically important to being able to use ReplayGain properly with LMS, especially on classical music? I guess you could always screw up the REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_PEAK tag in the file so it'll end up lower than it should be and then nothing would know about it until playback time, but that should really be an exception. paulster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

LMS is supposed to limit files with ReplayGain that would cause clipping in the first place. For example if the track peak is -2dB and ReplayGain would add +6dB gain, then LMS should adjust the effective ReplayGain figure to +4dB. I can't see how you're ever going to receive a file that could possibly clip in the first place. paulster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Consider this as a possible alternative: http://vortexbox.org/threads/4577-Logitech-SqueezeBox-replacement-for-under-30 You can get the PogoPlug from Adorama Camera at the moment for $18 on closeout! And Andrew from Vortexbox has ready-made images for it that include a real-time kernel for optimised audio quality and minimal latency. His latest release includes SqueezeLite 0.9b but I've been running the 1.0rc1 and rc2 versions this last few days and they perform really well. I have a bunch of these sat in their boxes now on top of the one I'm using so I have loads of Squeezebox hardware for the foreseeable future! paulster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Yes, that's exactly what I did. If you have a multitude of output devices and it doesn't find the right one by default then you might need to specify the correct one, but I didn't need to when I was testing it. If you bring up a Command Prompt window (Start -> Run -> cmd), cd to its directory and run it from the command line you'll have a better chance to see what it reports at startup, plus you can also run it with a -l parameter to see a list of available output devices if necessary. You weren't executing it from within the ZIP file were you? I'm wondering if you did, because it wouldn't automatically have extracted the DLLs at the same time. You need to have extracted the contents of the ZIP file into a folder before you run it. paulster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Triode One observation, not a problem per se, but an observation. If you use the web interface and skip to the next song whilst halfway through, the time elapsed and the progress bar will very quickly reset to 0 on the hardware players, but it can take quite some time to reset itself to the correct point on Squeezelite. It sounds like it isn't reporting back its elapsed time (or something similar) as regularly as the hardware players. Other than that I haven't encountered any issues whatsoever with RC2. I had it playing for over 12 hours yesterday with no hiccups. paulster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeezelite - a small headless squeezeplay emulator for linux (alsa only)
I've been listening to 1.0rc1 for a few hours already this morning, trying it with a range of different material/sources and it's been flawless so far, so I'm looking forward to doing some extended testing with it. I have noticed that my default installation on the PogoPlug using Andrew's VAMP image as a base does pretty well peg the CPU when I listen to an AAC radio stream. Do you think it's worth disabling this codec and letting the server carry the weight in this case? For FLAC and MP3 it's almost idling. paulster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

I've never got into producing Debian packages so that'll be tough for me because, although I could give you my observations on what needs to be changed to tidy things up, there still remains the problem that a purge of the squeezeboxserver package will wipe the config for logitechmediaserver.

Did you add debian.slimdevices.com to your sources.list file and then use apt-get to install? I did a basic Debian installation on my t5710, deselecting server, desktop, etc. and choosing only the standard installation. Then I added the source list entry and did an apt-get to install SqueezeCenter. At that point it began working and has ever since. I've updated modules since then and pointed it to my SMB-mounted music storage which necessitated installing the SMB client, but the basic installation was as straightforward as that. -- paulster paulster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=61978 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
