Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] HifiBerry Digi2 Pro

2022-02-21 Thread sheeple


I have two configurations at home at the moment: A Pi3 with Digi+ Pro
and a Pi4 with Digi+ Transformer.

After I had enabled ALSA 10 band equalizer from within piCorePlayer the
first time with the Pi3-based system, I noticed something like clipping
when the source (music track) was high level. I first thought I had to
find a place where I could, as I had slightly boosted some bands, lower
the total levels. But it went away and I happily listened at 100%
digital input level.

After the last listening orgy, starting with listening to the
aforementioned recording "Good Morning Midnight", I was again noting
some sound degradation when playing at 100% digital input and
interatively reduced it to 90%. At this level it is gone. I cannot tell
for sure if the absence of this "clipping" or "overdrive" was there in
the first place, or if I had simply not noted it at the beginning, but
when it set in, it was very "there". At least this is the order of the
story how my brain put things together for now.

Is this reasonable, that this occurs? I first thought I could only
notice it with the Pi3 with Digi+ Pro, but now I found out it is also
the case with Pi4 with Digi+ Transformer.

So I ordered another Pi4 1GB and the PCB is already Version 1.5,
squeezelite is not running. If anyone has an idea how to source previous
revisions, I am interested. My vendor could not offer the service to
search for a previous revision. Regards

Yes, this was the forum message that I was referring to. I did not know
about their findings that they have published on their blog,
interesting. Ordered a Pi4 1GB now and hoping its is still build the old
way.

According to their forum support account, they have acknowledged that
they in fact do have a problem. At some point we can hope this is going
to work again. On the Pi3 everything is now running, only that I have so
much Pi4 stuff lying around now.

runs after setting up the Digi+ Pro as playback device.

Getting a Pi3 instead seems to be a viable and much cheaper option. A
bit sad that the HiFiBerry Digi steel case for Pi3 is not available
anymore.

I do not need a DAC at all, because the digital signal is going into a
Hypex plate amp that has its own converters.

I always thought Justboom products where produced by the same factory as
the HiFiBerry SPIDF-boards, but the latter had bought the more
sophisticated layouts too. When I asked JB about their products, I never
got replied and decided against them. And I thought these would suffer
from the same condition. I also wanted the Plus versions.

I re-ran all the test done with Digi2 and the results are basically
identical. The only thing being different that HiFiBerryOS does
misrecognizes the Digi+ Pro as a DAC this time.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] HifiBerry Digi2 Pro

2022-02-03 Thread sheeple


The vendor finally replied and apparently is willing to refund me.

I have read with interest the fact that a Digi2 Pro was not recognized
on another 2GB Pi4, which is also the model I have in use. The company
HiFiBerry does not sell the board for specific Pi's and therefore must
assure its operability over the range, if single models are not
explicitly excluded. At least this is my understanding after cautiously
reading there marketing, where they don't. If the board is not working
on the Pi4 2GB, this is a manufacturers problem.

Anyhow, I want your opinion if you advice a fall back to the Digi+ Pro.
My question is directed peculiarly to two concerns: a] is the Digi+ Pro
possibly more compatible and will this be a way to spare me the effort
of enother return? Any expereinces on this? b) what features will I miss
out, i. e. the addition of the DSP module?

Ronnie,
thanks for thorough troubleshooting. I did not want the hustle of
returning a working board and have to learn this from the the dealer
later on. Now I am confident it is not a user error.

I live in Germany, a replacement will not be a problem. A 2 years
warranty is the legal framework in case of a faulty product sold.

Thank you one more time, appreciated.

I do not see an error here, only that the pi has responded to config.txt
entry and loaded hifiberry-digi.dtbo for audio output.

I added a dtoverlay line as per your instructions in the config.txt and
have confirmed it was saved there:

36993

Based on this, I recieve the aforementioned output for squeezelite -1
command.

Thank you for your detailed instructions. I used Windows Powershell
instead and everything was so easy!

After implementing each step, the command squeezelite -1 prompted the
following response:

My guess was the Digi2 is not recognized and hence misrecognized as a
Beocreate amp. Maybe Beocreate is assigned when the OS sees something,
but all full.

Man in a van wrote:

I am burning the image to the SD atm. Any manuals on how to install the
overlay and squeezelite or is this a matter of clicks in the interface
of the raspberry pi OS?

I am working from a Windows 10 machine, Pi4 connected via ethernet to
the router.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] HifiBerry Digi2 Pro

2022-01-22 Thread sheeple


I encountered a similar problem today.

Digi2 on a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5, powered by standard Pi4 power
supply, no other connections other than SD card and Digi2.

First I was using piCorePlayer 8.1.0, 64 Bit Kernel:

I set the audio output to Hifiberry Digi+ Pro as commonly advised and
squeezelite immediately stopped working after reboot. Then I began to
search for explanations:


This is pcp_boot.log:

  - http: //pcp. local (mdnsd)
  
  Press [Enter] to access console.
  
  In the background, ntpd is syncing time between piCorePlayer and the internet.
  A large offset between 1970 and now is normal.




After this, I installed HifiberryOS and after connecting to the device
via Ethernet, I was presented with a "Beocreate" surface where I could
choose which speaker to amplify. I think this is not correct.

Then I tried piCorePlayer ver. 6.1, 7, 8, 8.1 all in 32 Bit Kernel,
after using 64 Bit Kernel yesterday with ver 8.1.

I could not connect to piCorePlayer versions 6.1 and 7 over Ethernet and
had no patience to troubleshoot the reason why.
The versions 8 and 8.1 do all show squeezelite not running. With 8.1 I
tried to add force_eeprom_read=0 to the config.txt, but this did not
change a thing.

In the submenu "HAT information" is an entry which baffles me: although
piCorePlayer cannot start the Digi2 as indicated in pcp_boot.log, there
is information about a Digi2 Pro. Not even Digi+ Pro, which is the
overlay used in piCorePlayer settings, but Digi2. how comes this?


Code:

  [ INFO ] dmesg
  Overlays in /mnt/mmcblk0p1/config.txt

I am about to send this board back, but would still like to get it going
if it was possible. Any ideas how to continue?
