Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce piCorePlayer 3.20

2017-05-31 Thread slackhead

Hi guys. 

I'm having a problem with getting my pcp to get the right time. 

I've just upgraded to 3.20 from 3.11 and everything works apart from the
time not being set, so it thinks it's midnight on Jan 1st 1970. 

The pi is connected through wired LAN, it has internet access and can
play radio as well as connecting to LMS on my server.  I've been able to
install Jivelite and other stuff.

It appears that something is blocking ntp (possibly my router/firewall),
so I have tried to connect to the pi via ssh to point it's ntp to the
local ntp service running on my server.  However logging in over ssh
always produces the prompt 'your password has expired' (presumably
because of the time discrepency), asks me for a new password and then
promptly closes the connection.  Next attempt to login produces same
problem, ad infinitum.  

So I have a circular problem - I can't update the time because I can't
ssh in, and I can't ssh in because the time is wrong!!! 

I've had a look at the sd card directly on my pc but can't see any
relevant files that could be edited. 

Any ideas  - it would be nice to have a working clock?

BTW I didn't have this problem in 3.11

Thanks.

I'm wondering why so many players?  

Seems to me you might be over complicating things which will likely lead
to headaches later on.

If they are all playing the same thing in sync then its going to be much
more reliable, affordable and much less maintenance to simply distribute
the audio around.  
Have one central player per zone and either use a 100v speaker system or
send line level audio (balanced if over long distance) to local
amplifiers at the speakers.

This also means if your streaming service / internet goes down you can
just plug in another source at the central point (a phone perhaps) and
you have music back.

My Amanero / ESS9018 combo has worked pretty much flawlessly for many

Do you mean the squeezelite logging?  Would that show anything related
to Jivelite or the screen?

I've checked dmesg and the other reports available on the PCP web view
but nothing to indicate the problem. 

I'm currently testing with Custom Clock removed and that seems better,
so I'm wondering if the configuration has somehow become corrupted. 
I'll give it a bit of time to see if it holds up.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 3.00

2016-11-16 Thread slackhead

Hi guys,

I recently updated my RPi2 from PCP version 2 (which ran without any
issues) to version 3 (clean install to a fresh SD card).  This ran OK
for a few days but last couple of days or so I have been having some
issues with the Jivelite screen (official Pi 7" touch screen) locking up
after leaving the player idle or playing for a period of time (can't be
sure, but seems to happen after maybe 15-20 minutes).  

I can still control the player from the LMS and the PCP web pages and
audio plays fine, but the touch screen is totally unresponsive and the
display doesn't update. 

Behaves the same on wired or wifi network.  No LMS running on the Pi
(I'm running LMS on a QNAP NAS), but do use Custom Clock to change the
screensaver.

Any suggestions where I might look or should I perhaps try doing another
fresh install and reconfigure from scratch again?

Thanks
Richard

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite for piCorePlayer

2016-03-23 Thread slackhead

Does anyone one have any ideas about how to change the installed
wallpapers?  

I'm not a fan of any of the default ones and it would be nice to be able
to install my own.  

I've been digging around using WinSCP and everything seems to go back to
files in:
/tmp/tcloop/jivelite/opt/jivelite/share/jive/applets/SetupWallpaper/wallpaper/


But I can't change these due to read only 'Read Only Filesystem' and I
presume if I could change them they would be overwritten at restart or
at very least an upgrade. 

On the Touch you can add wallpaper using the 'Customize Device' plugin,
but that doesn't appear to work for Jivelite.

Thanks

Well, the only extra needed compared to a full grown Pi is the hub and a
cable.   

Total cost will be maybe £15 less (which may or may not be significant).
Has some more flexibility regarding space / mounting arrangements. 
[I'm actually debating building one into my DAC unit, and using the Pi's
I2C to take control of the DAC chip as well as streaming the audio ]

But wasn't really looking to win anything, just have some fun with a £4
computer.   Does that bother you?

Not sure where you get your info from, but I have just managed to get
PiCorePlayer working just fine with a very cheap Dynamode USB WIFI
adaptor through a powered hub. 

So far it works just as well as my Model A and my Pi 2.

To get it setup, I used my Model A on LAN, configured all settings for
WLAN and swapped the sdcard into the Zero - booted up first time, found
the network and my USB DAC and was accessible from LMS Web GUI. 

Only issue is needing two power supplies (Zero and hub), otherwise a
great little player.  Lots of scope for the future .

Max2Play has a multiband EQ that works with Squeezelite through sox.

Root access is not enabled by default.  Instead you can get access using

Once in you can enable root access by setting a password - 'passwd

required.

If you have programmed the keys correctly then it should just work with

FLIRC program was showing the correct keys on the display when the
remote buttons were pushed it will be setup fine.

I presume you are using Jiveiite (the graphic squeezebox like display)
via HDMI?  FLIRC should then allow you to navigate the menus. etc with
the Denon remote.

  And given I connect to my DAC via USB, I have both the DAC and the
 flirc pluuged into a USB hub which is plugged into the wandboard.  BTW,
 does anyone know what type of USB connector I need to use the other USB
 port on the wandboard and avoid the hub?  

Connecting your DAC and FLIRC to the WB via a USB-hub should work fine. 
This is what I do, along with hard-drives.  The FLIRC will generate very
little USB activity but will take a little power - it may be wise to
ensure any hub you use is externally powered.

For testing FLIRC tt may be worth connecting the dongle directly to the
WB without the hub (leave out the DAC for just now).  If you can then
navigate the menus, you know FLIRC works and have a problem with the hub
(or cables).

Yes, Jivelite should be running regardless of having a monitor.  Having

BTW A simple way to check your FLIRC device is to plug it into a desktop
machine (Windows or whatever) and open a text editor.  When you press

in the text document ie pressing 'Play' should give you a 'p' or 'x'. 
If this doesn't happen then either your config is wrong or there is a

 Just a quick tip for anyone in the UK that might be thinking about
 buying a CT or BBB, wanting to see the serial console. It's a USB - TTL
 (3.3V) serial cable. You can't really go wrong for £1.32 including
 shipping. Same item selling for 3x elsewhere. I've been using this
 with the CT and BBB. With the free shipping option it'll take a
 fortnight to arrive. (Shipped from China.) Should work with Pi as well.
 (But I've not tested that.)

I just picked up a similar device from within UK for £2:40 IIRC. 
Received day after order and seems to work well except I also needed a
null cable which I could have made up myself but ended up buying for
~£1.60.  

If you want to pay good money you could go to your local Maplin and pay
~£25 for the convertor and ~£15+ for the cable. 8^|

That looks identical to the one I bought.

I remember that too, when they had a single shop in Hammersmith that

 I *think* this naughtiness is causing my SD card corruption issue.
 If it absolutely must be powered down in an orderly fashion, I was
 thinking about some form of UPS type system where the board is kept
 alive for a short time by a battery, and it detects the loss of mains
 power, and runs some form of shutdown script.  I don't know enough about
 the hardware or Linux to know if this is even possible.
 I suspect most people leave it powered up 24/7 but we get quite a few
 powercuts, so some form of failsafe would be useful.

If you search further back in this thread you will find some posts
discussing a fairly simple switch circuit and related code which allows
for a push button power off.

Sorry can't remember who posted it but it was a few weeks ago...

I'm just seeing a single long list of plug-ins to enable/disable, with
no listing of third party plug-ins and no where to add third party plug
in repos.  So very limited.  

I've not had to use this page for quite a while so not sure when it
happened, but I have upgraded to 7.9 and then back down to 7.8.1 and
then to 7.8.0 and it's the same in all versions...!

 I use ipeng which is really great, but sometimes it's quicker to grab a

You need to use the FLIRC configuration program which allows you to
setup pretty much any remote control unit and assign buttons to give out
any particular key stroke.  The CSOS website has a list of the keys used
by jivelite, about half way down this
page:-http://www.communitysqueeze.org/jivelite_about.jsp.  

The FLIRC program is pretty easy to use and can be run on any available
machine - just plug the dongle in, run the program, select the key
stroke and press the buttons on the remote you want to use...

 Would this http://stephan-rafin.net/blog/2014/01/06/cheap-ir-receiver/
 work in CSOS? If so, would it continue working when John's board is
 available?

I use a more or less identical system for controlling XBMC on my
RaspberryPi, and did wonder about using the same for the controlling
Jivelite on CSOS, but (yet again) not had a chance to look into yet ;( 

My understanding is that the required LIRC code is now part of the
kernel so it should work with F20 with out much trouble. However with
F19 I'm not at all clear as that uses a much older kernel, which
probably does not include the LIRC stuff, and would likely require some
effort. 

As far as Johns hardware goes, I believe he is making GPIO pins
available on the board, but not sure if this will include the pins used
as standard for LIRC, although I think this can be configured to use
other pins, so that is not likely an insurmountable problem.

Be warned, however - even if the right pins are available and the LIRC
code in place, it still takes quite a bit of effort to set up, as you
need to program LIRC for the particular remote you want to use, which
can be fiddly, and then define the actions of the buttons.

If you want a cheap solution and have the patience, this might be a good
option.  Otherwise stick to FLIRC - it so much simpler :D (and cost less
than a cheap dinner out).

I'd be happy to give that a quick go, however I don't normally use
wireless with my WB  - although I guess I could give it a try.

 
 I want to move forward with F20. Which we are never going to do until we
 have a tested/working final F19 image that people can be pointed back to
 if they have any issues with F20. This is not a threat, but I'm not
 going to be moving forward with F20 and the mainline kernel, while
 fire-fighting F19 at the same time. Until we have a final F19 image with
 several people telling me it's virtually bullet-proof.

Would it be worth setting up a bug/issue logging and tracking system for
F19 and F20?

Hi Triode,

I've re-run the same sequence of events as in yesterdays post, except
the Samsung drive is connected as /dev/sda1/  
I had the same problem, with the wrong drives being unmounted.  It
appears that clicking the 'Unmount' button for the Samsung drive (or in
fact any drive) is removing the drive that is displayed at the top of
the list in the GUI.

I went through and allowed it to remove each of the external drives in
turn until /dev/sda1 was removed and then mounted / unmounted that drive
repeatedly.  When it is the only drive listed this appears to work
fine...

My aim is to mount the drive labelled SAMSUNG.

Open Web GUI Storage page.
The expected partitions are listed under 'Mounted File Systems'.
Under 'Mount Local Disk' I select /mnt/disk1, /dev/sdb1 and ext3 then
click 'Add'.
Drive shows up as - /mnt/disk1, /dev/sdb1 (fuseblk), defaults.

I am able to browse the files on the partition via the mount point.  All
good so far.

Check fstab:

Code:

Seems as I would expect.

Click 'Remove' button in GUI next to this partition.

GUI removes /dev/sdc1 partition from list NOT /dev/sdb1

Code:


  [root@wandboard /]# cat /etc/fstab

Testing this and it seems to be working well in general, except for one
small possible problem, although it might be what you intend.  
When changing a partitions mount options and updating, extra fstab lines
get added and previous entries left but commented out, so that the file

Also, might it be an idea to automatically insert a 'nofail' for extra
drives to avoid problems when booting with out the drive attached, or is
this no longer an issue?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Community Squeeze OS F19 Release 1

2014-03-04 Thread slackhead

Hi guys, as I said I would, I've just been having a closer look at the
'storage' pages in the two web GUIs, using them to (temporarily) mount a
EXT3 partitioned USB drive that I use for backup purposes.  I think I am
up to date with the GUI versions.  And please note I already have four
USB drives connected through fstab.  The extra drive/partition appears
at /dev/sde1/ 

First I tried Triodes page, and it was very easy to mount the drive -
although I couldn't mount it to the folder I'd normally use for this
drive (no real problem), but use /mnt/disk1/.  
I did some quick file transfers to test it was working OK, but hit a
problem when I tried to 'remove' the drive - it would not unmount.
I checked that the drive was not in use - both 'lsof' and 'fuser' for
the partition gave no response for the partition.
Refreshed the web GUI and it still showed the drive as mounted and
further clicking 'remove' did nothing.
Resorted to unmounting the drive using bash and that worked fine.  But
the GUI still showed the drive as mounted 

Next I tried JackOfAlls version which is more comprehensive and it took
me a little while to work out what was what (nothing unusual about that
;)).  
First thing I notice is that only three partitions are shown in the
'System Mounted File Systems' section as mounted - is this a limit for
the GUI or is it not detecting all the mounted partitions correctly?
Looking at the 'User Controlled File Systems' section I see in place
entries for /dev/sde1 and /mnt/disk1 - and I was able to select 'mount'
from the action list which appeared to work fine.
Tested transferring files again and then went back to the GUI and chose
action 'unmount' which this time worked fine and the drive was
successfully removed. 
Tried again, this time using the 'Mount Local File System' and again
this appears to work fine for mounting. 

Following this I went and had a look at the /etc/fstab file and notice
the following:


Code:


  # start added by squeeze-web-gui-lua
  /dev/sde1   /mnt/disk1  ext3defaults0   0
  # end added by squeeze-web-gui-lua
  



I'd have expected this line to be commented out.  This could well cause
issues next time I boot up without the drive connected (specially as
there is not a 'nofail' attribute set).  So I've manually removed this. 
I presume this is related to Triodes GUI issue of not dismounting the
drive... 

So in short - Triodes GUI is not dismounting the drive and is leaving
entry active in fstab - and JackOfAlls GUI is not showing all the
mounted partitions but otherwise seems to work OK. 

For the purpose I think Triodes GUI is the way to go for the majority of
users once the problem(s) get fixed - its much more straightforward and
provides what most users are going to need.  But also, for me
personally, I like Clives as it has more of the functionality I'd
actually use, such as mounting a drive temporarily.  I'd like to
continue having access to both GUIs, but then I don't see myself as a
typical user.

Ah yes - one more point.

Drives mounted in /storage are by default shared via CIFS to the
network, while dives mounted to /mnt are not.  Can we add a default to
the Samba config to enable sharing of drive mounted in /mnt
automatically?

Ok, I'll have a look at that.

 
 Actually, there's still going to be a problem in that fuseblk is going
 to be ignored as a valid fs type. Do you have those mounts in fstab
 using ntfs-3g as the fstype and mount is returning fuseblk rather than
 ntfs-3g? If that's the case, I'll need to deal with that somehow.

Yes, that is the case.

I've added the extra /storage mount points into the

The EXT3 drives are now all listed under 'System Mounted File Systems'
as expected
The NTFS drives are showing under 'User Controlled File Systems' and are
listed as status: not mounted, which I presume is the fuseblk issue
you are referring to.

Thanks for the quick update.

NTFS drives are now being listed twice.  First as type 'fuseblk',
specification '/dev/sd..', status 'mounted' and available action
'unmount'.  
Secondly as type 'ntfs-3g', specification 'LABEL=...', status
'unmounted' and actions 'mount', 'update'  'delete'.

2014-02-25 Thread slackhead

I have a simple question regarding the Storage page of the lua gui:

Does the 'Unmount' button permanently remove the entry for the drive
from fstab as well as unmounting it?  Or is it just a temporary unmount,
allowing for the drive to be remounted again without resetting?  

I think both options might be useful - the later for when somebody wants
to temporarily unmount a USB drive to move to to another system for
copying music over, for instance, and then mount it on CSOS again
(without having to redo all the mount settings). 

Also a very minor point - (putting my pedants hat on :)) i can't help
thinking that 'visulizer' should be spelt 'visualizer' or 'visualiser' -
my dictionary seems to suggest the later.

Also, personally, I like to plug in an external drive for doing backups

Sounds like it should work well for what I need, except I tend to use
disk label rather than device id for mounting drives as it is more
consistent across boots.  As it stands i'd still need to use a shell to
work out what the id was for the drive i'm mounting.  That's the trouble
with using lots of drives :).  Not sure how you'd be able to cope with

If your Windows LMS is working with sugarcube fine then it points to

I presume your music is stored on the Windows Server?  And you are able

Have you tried to restart CSOS? 

You could also try moving the sugarcube preference and database files

You'll also have to re-do all the settings, but it will give you a clean

Good luck - having to deal with (de)soldering the tiny SM resistors

 I used a small SSD drive (120 Gb Samsung EVO) because CSOS doesn't use a
 lot of space and the smaller SSD's are usually less expensive.
 The write speed of that SSD is not that spectacular. A 500 Gb Samsung
 EVO is twice as fast but costs more than three times more. 
 So there is a compromise to be made. That's why the 120 Gb would still
 be my choice. The read performance is 10x faster than the SD card and
 that is e pretty important factor too.

Yeah, cost of the big fast drives is still very expensive.  For that
reason I'm using a 64Gb OCZ in my workstation just as system /
application drive (which is just big enough) with data stored separately
on spinning drives. To replace all my data storage would cost me a
fortune :(

 I'm still on F19. I'm looking forward to F20 but I'm a bit afraid that
 my poor Linux skills will let me down moving to F20 today. 
 So, I'm waiting for the official F20 release from Clive. 
 
 The next step I'm thinking of is to let the WB completely boot of the
 SSD. This probably won't change anything performance wise but it would
 eliminate the SD card completely. The boot process seems quite simple so
 I'm very temped.

For a while I was running my WB with the root folder on a 2.5 SATA
drive, but with the /boot folder remaining on SDcard -  this is easy
enough to implement if you understand the fstab file.  I think moving
the actual /boot folder over is much trickier (requires a hardware mod)
and is not likely to show much, if anything, in the way of a performance
improvement.  

While running with root on a sata drive, the boot time was a bit faster
and LMS webgui was a little quicker when doing searches, etc.  But in
general I didn't feel that it made that much of a speed difference and I
had a couple of stability problems related to the sata drive, although I
was using an old drive.  I decided to go back to having root on the
sdcard for the time being, but would like to try a small ssd when the
F20 image is available.

Beyond that the Webgui appears to be working fine, although I've not

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Community Squeeze OS F19 Release 1

2014-02-05 Thread slackhead

I'm a little unusual :D in that i'm using CSOS for somewhat more than it
was intended, having 1 SATA and 3 USB (a mixture of ext4 and NTFS)
drives permanently connected to the WB plus a couple of other USBs that
get connected on occasion for backups which are all then shared over my
network.  

Effectively, the WB has become a NAS replacement as well as LMS server
and player.  My main motivation for doing this is the very low energy
requirements compared to running other alternatives, and in general I am
very happy with its performance for all these tasks.  The long term
costs of running this compared to a 386 alternative, more than justified
buying the Wandboard. 

For me, having Samba / NFS mounting available through the Web GUI is of
little real consequence as I can just as easily run up a SSH session,
although at times it would be handy.

BUT, for others who may not so comfortable with Linux, I think this
could be a much more important feature.  For reference I'd suggest
having a look at what Vortexbox does.  From reading VB users posts here
and over at the VB forum (and having spent a few months using it
myself), many really appreciate the ease with which it can be set up
through the Web interface with little knowledge of the underlying OS. 
They have a lot of novice users who care little for learning stuff like
terminal commands to mount a network drive. 

For CSOS, i'm sure the target user base must be very similar to that of
VB - if you are going to the effort of creating a whole hardware 
software system, why limit it to those who have the knowledge (or are
prepared to learn)?  I'm sure we all want as many CSOS uses as possible,
be they plug'n'players or geeks like us :) 

I realise making all this functionality takes considerable efforts, and
judging the best direction for those efforts is not my call.  But I
really do want to see CSOS progress and pull in plenty of new people
along the way.  Just wish I could be more help!

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Community Squeeze OS F19 Release 1

2014-02-03 Thread slackhead

Does adding a drive entry through this web gui also add it as a NFS and
Samba, or could that be added as an option?  

I think if people are adding drives, they are likely also to want to
share those drives on their network - and to be able to do that without
having to directly edit the relevant config files would greatly add to
the value of the gui.

This is exactly what happens to me, which I have reported a couple of

others.  Not that I am glad it is effect you as well.  

I've just had a repeat of this again while trying to update to the new
Jivelite.  I've tried to work around this issue in the past, by for
instance stopping the Jivelite (autologin@tty1) service first but that
doesn't help. 

I've never notices audio hanging while navigating menus but I don't use
the analogue out.

 I've added some code to emulate the old ir behaviour using the keyboard
 (and hence flirc) - would be good if Clive could add to the testing
 jivelite so people can tell me if they like it and if they find any side
 effects...
 
 1) The arrow buttons should change letters in the text input box (used
 for search) [note *]
 2) The number buttons should jump to specific letters in a long text
 menu (e.g. 55 will jump to K) - note this only works for menus where
 this was previously enabled for IR [note **]
 
 note * - it would be possible to also add the function from 2 to the
 text input dialog, but this would prevent keyboard input of numbers if
 people have full keyboards so I have not done this for the moment.
 
 note ** - this is probably a little sensitive at present with flirc in
 that it jumps to the second letter mapped to a number quite fast -
 interested on people's views on this too.
 
 Feedback appreciated.  [its also possible it breaks stuff as I've not
 tested for more than a few minutes] 

Triode many thanks - didn't expect something quite so quickly.  This is
is a great step in the right direction.  

Jumping in lists works pretty well - the sensitivity problem you mention
is very apparent, but I have a feeling this maybe a FLIRC problem as
I've had the same thing when using FLIRC on other devices/application. 
Perhaps this is something we could take up with the FLIRC developers?

The search functionality is not quite intuitive, I'd much prefer to be
able to enter letters directly.  Not clear why having this would break
full keyboard input - can't the numbers continue to send a number on
initial press and then move on to letters? 

I'll do some more testing later and report back, but for now thanks
again.

Thanks Clive - don't really want to distract you atm.  Like I implied,

...


Code:

I presume this is the same issue that was making Jivelite 'hang' when I
hit the power menu item.  Interestingly when it hangs the current SSH
service stops,  I can start a new session but that hangs after entering
the password, the WebGUI hangs, LMS WebgUI hangs, Webmin GUI hangs, but
Samba and NFS continue fine.

  There are unfinished transactions remaining. You might consider running 
yum-complete-transaction, or yum-complete-transaction --cleanup-only and yum

Yes I can try that :)  Will take a little while.

Just one thought about the 'issue'.  The WB connects via HDMI to the TV
which I also use for the PC that is running the SSH session (the TV has
three separate HDMI inputs) - so when I run the update commands the WB
is effectively disconnected from the display.  Could this have a
bearing?  I can try ssh'ing from a different device and running the
commands from there if you think that might help?

Well R4 has updated OK by the looks of things, which I guess is good
news :D but does it help explain what's up with my other install (or to
badboygolf16v)?

 Can you dd your R2 image to a file, compress the file and upload it to
 somewhere I can get it, (maybe Google Drive) ? 

I'll be able to do that later this afternoon - few things to get on with
first.   Is Dropbox OK for you?

 I guess my main point is if we map keyboard (which is what flirc

 used with an IR remote then this is reasonable, but if people have a
 full wireless keyboard or any other keyboard then it will be odd?

I think I follow ... I agree that it shouldn't be changed in a way that
breaks full keyboard input.

Sorry got distracted earlier but doing the DD now - it's not a quick job
(especially as its a 16G sdcard).  Hope it compresses down to a
manageable size as my dropbox account wont deal with anything close to
that big.

Thanks, but it's not helping here - I've tried changing that setting in
the past to no avail.  I'll get on the FLIRC forum sometime and ask if
there is anything else that could help.

Yes, I get that much.  Could extra key commands be added to Jivelite for
some combinations, say Ctrl+1 through Ctrl+0, which Jivelite would
respond to in the desirable keypad manner (ie  like sms text buttons)
and then set FLIRC up so that the remote number keys send this key
combination?   That way full keyboards sending the normal numbers /
letters carry on working as before,  but our SB3 / MCE remotes can send
the Ctrl key combinations which give the extra functionality.

Another option on the remote front could be:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Wireless-Keyboard-Remote-Control-Center/dp/B009YPQ7PO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8qid=1390417491sr=8-1keywords=MELE+F10
which we get around the seach / jump problem having a full alphabetic
keypad.

 I don't like the fact that it's not IR, making it difficult to integrate
 in a system already having a Harmony or other programmable remote.

The way I understand wireless remotes like the Mele is that the USB
dongle works much like any other USB keyboard and passes key codes -
very much like what the FLIRC does.  So as long as we know what keys are
being sent, I'd have expected that a FLIRC configuration that worked
with your Harmony or other devices could quite easily be made that
replicated the functionality.

Now that would be great.  LazySearch was a treat to use, and I really

 I'm happy we go with Ralphy's config file - mine was only a get us
 started with FLIRC version.  That said I do think we need to look for a
 cheap remote which better suits the grid skin and then generate a config
 for it.  The fundamental issue with the grid skin is it really needs
 separate select and back (go and back) buttons from left and right. 
 I've been using an old DVD remote, but I think it would be good if we
 could identify a common one which people can obtain for this?  Has
 anyone got any suggestions? 

Please don't take this wrongly, I certainly don't mean to belittle the
incredible efforts you have already put into getting Jivelite to where
it is now, but having recently spent some more time using the interface
with FLIRC and  SB3 remote - I can't help but feeling that it needs more
effort to get it working in a usable friendly way.

Having a full keyboard, or perhaps, a remote with (much) more keys works
better - but the limitations of the number/letter keypad is a major
stumbling block.  You can't use the search functionality (as you can't
enter letters) nor can you jump through long lists (to alphabetic
indexes).

Sure, having control over playback and accessing favourites is very
useful, but it really needs to be more friendly for browsing and finding
music to be of any great value.  As it stands I still need other means
(I mostly use Muso or iPeng) to find the music I want to listen to,
which involves having another device (PC / Phone) available and powered
up, which in my mind defeats one of the main purposes of having Jivelite
there in the first place - I may as well just use the other device.  (I
don't particularly want the have a full keyboard clogging up my front
room, just for this one job).

If these uesabilty 'issues' can be sorted out then FLIRC and a suitable
remote will be an excellent solution, but as it stands now is too
limited.

It's detailed back a few pages on this thread, but the image access is

If you don't want to wait you can send JackOfAll a PM requesting a copy
