[SlimDevices: Unix] Start up Behaviour unstable/nw: Normally should resume playing radio on all devices
I have the following configuration: Picores v8.2.0 on four devices : LivingRoom, Bedroom, Bathroom and Kitchen Squeezelite-X on Windows 10: Workspace room *Version LMS*: Logitech Media Server Version: 8.3.0 - 1667251155 @ Fri 04 Nov 2022 09:17:53 AM CET *Version Picores*: 8.2.0 *piCorePlayerLivingRoom *| piCorePlayer v8.2.0 | www v00017 | linux 5.15.35-pcpCore (32) | piCore v13.2 | Squeezelite v1.9.9-1403-pCP *piCorePlayerKitchen *| piCorePlayer v8.2.0 | www v00017 | linux 5.15.35-pcpCore-v8 (64) | piCore v13.2 | Squeezelite v1.9.9-1392-pCP *piCorePlayerBathroom *| piCorePlayer v8.2.0 | www v00017 | linux 5.15.35-pcpCore-v8 (64) | piCore v13.2 | Squeezelite v1.9.9-1392-pCP *piCorePlayerBedroom *| piCorePlayer v8.2.0 | www v00017 | linux 5.15.35-pcpCore-v8 (64) | piCore v13.2 | Squeezelite v1.9.9-1392-pCP All devices were synced, when they were powered on: 39544 Startup Behaviour set up for all devices are like this: 39545 LivingRoom will be powered on manually on demand from time to time. Bedroom, Kitchen and Bathroom are powered on and off by a time scheduled wifi power plug (9:40-19:45 each working day (besides Saturday)) Squeezelite-X is powered by PC on demand, but follows loose manually the working day scheme of the others. Although and despite of all this settings, the start up behaviour is unstable, in the last time it seems to be very stable to not starting my favourite radio! I have tried all variations, also not resuming but restarting, with no effect. Squeezelite-X can be terminated and restarted and will often start again (as a single radio (the sync settings should be stored when the others are off) as well in sync with the others (when they are on)). As soon as Squeezelite-X is off, and I try to restart the Picores of bedroom, livingroom and kitchen, the radio cluster stays silent. I am desperated, what am I missing here? Do I have to write a script for this? How should it be like, where can I apply it?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0
I have this funny phenomenon, that sometimes after reboot, the screensaver does not turn on after 30s to my "beloved" black digital clock (black). Also switching to other "clocks" does not help them. After a few days normally it suddenly works again (so after a few restarts) My 4 picore players are turned on via wlan plugs each morning and turned off in in the evening. One at the moment shows the digital clock this morning the others not, yesterday it was 2 of 4 showing the clock, the third one only showed one time the clock, the fourth has never turned on the clock (but the display went black)... Does anybody know, what is the reason and how this could be prevented. Picoreplayer was updated a few month ago to the then latest software8.x.x Another "funny" but maybe not related fact is, that sometimes the radio stays silent. It should start with my favorite broadcast. I have the suspicion that this behaviour is controlled by the server. If I turned off my pc application (so just close it), maybe it sends a signal to stop broadcasting, which affects after restart the other devices (that stay silent then)`? peddanet's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70331 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114828 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Touch freezes from time to time...
Hi, after having time and exchanging the Raspberry PI I found out that the display is out of order. So I ordered a replacement (which was no harrassment because it was ordered at Amazon), and now it works fully! Sometimes things can get so easy. But because of my construction, It is quite badly maintainable I did not find the time (and obviously I do not have any hardware around just to see if it is a hardware issue)...

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Touch freezes from time to time...
Ok calibrating with ts_calibrate wasn't working quite well, but after a time I managed to calibrate it with my fingers with enough precision, but I can now surely say, every region works well with the touch except the two first "thought" finger lines (so in terms of our menu, the first row of a table, when choosing a sender for example). Especially the second line is works rarely, only randomly. The first line sometimes does not work (right is better than left). It is a 5 inch DSI 800x480, did anybody faces hardware issues with some areas? Because every othe region works quite well. peddanet's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70331 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116912 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
[SlimDevices: Unix] Touch freezes from time to time...
With one of my PicorePlayers I have a weird issue, which starts getting nervy: I have problems using the touch pad, I can not continuously use the touch, it seems to work like a PWM, so 5 seconds fluent work, then stops working for another 5 seconds (only as an example time!). *Has anybody faces issues like this? * Possible reasons: - calibration? -did not calibrate, because normally I can reach every region with my finger in a reasonable exactness... - power peak leakage? - driver problem?

Before my upgrade to v8.2.0, I had a weird issue. Sometimes my old picoreplayer v8.1.1 was connecting and acting like a "bathroom" player, sometimes it was not connecting to the LMS and said it was not connected to any network! But it played music. And I could - only sometimes - tell him to be a twin of "kitchen" player. But I could not choose "bathroom" player, which was funnily double in the list. This is why I experimented a little with more stability in my wifi network (moving antennas, setting repeaters and extenders) and I upgraded to version 8.2.0. Since then problem vanished. Because I changed more than one parameter at a time, I cannot exactly tell, which change cause the system to act more stable again, but do you have any idea about this behaviour, especially the double entry of "bathroom" player? peddanet's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70331 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116911 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Change Jivelite surface to tiles
Two side questions arose as weill: - how to save the name of the picore player (instead of *picorePlayer *it should be named like *picoreplayerBathroom *(I can set one name in Jivelite and I guess one in the web interface and one somwhere else... I forgot in config.txt?)? I got confused about that, plus saving the settings in jivelite repeatedly did not save the name. Ok maybe there are "only" two names: - host name for LAN recognition : I choose "pcPBathroom" - The picorePlayer's name in the settings dialog: 38862 But why can I set a name in the Jivelite? Why won't it be saved? For what reason does this entry exist, I would assume it mirrors the the piCoreplayer's Name in the settings dialog above?? It seems a nonsense setting to me, because it does not affect anything and can't be saved to SSD...After reboot, it still remains default.. - *Is there a proper way to upgrade without loosing config for example from 8.1.1 to 8.2.0?

For some reason in the "grid skin" settings the "Joggler" skin was chosen here (I remember clearly to have set up "800x480"). Now it has got the tiles look, but I do not really understand the contexts and interrelationships here. I remember that I also installed a package called "slimdevice.tcz" and "slimdevice-CPAN.tcz". I don't believe that this has something to do with the looks, but at least I did it before. Why was my skin changed??

I indeed did not find my own thread even in my own history! But this thread "only" describes the issues of setting the right resolution of jivelite and the touchscreen calibration, but not how to get the "tiles" look. What are the installation steps to install these tiles look (I only find "Jiggler" but not Joggler with Google, so where is a step by step installation guide for Joggler skin?? Joggler skin remains a little bit foggy to me...)? These steps I did not document there.

[SlimDevices: Unix] Change Jivelite surface to tiles
Hi all, I hope someone can help, because I had problems after I had to upgrade (in terms of complete reinstallation) to picore player 8.2.0... I think I used the wrong keywords (here in the forum and in google) or something, I was not able to find help for this topic, although I might not be the only one looking for this...I hope for your help! I needed to update my Picoreplayer to 8.2.0 for stability reasons. This worked well (so far). But I forgot how I set up these special tiles look of the Jivelite surface: 38860 Instead of that I got that surface here: 38861 Two side questions arose as weill: - how to save the name of the picore (I can set one name in Jivelite and I guess one in the web interface and one somwhere else... I forgot in config.txt?)? I got confused about that, plus saving the settings in jivelite repeatedly did not save the name. - how to change the jivelite skin if it is once saved ? - Is there a proper way to upgrade without loosing config for example from 8.1.1 to 8.2.0? It took a hell lot of time to do repeat all the steps of manual configuraton, and as you can see, I am not already done. ... Thanks for help appreciated!
