The only issue I had which was caused by my HDD spinning down after a
few minutes, was artwork going out of sync if a couple of consecutive
Spotify tracks appeared in a Random playlist. The HDD could sleep during
the Spotify tracks but I have never seen the HDD sleep while playing
local tracks of any length.

The difference is probably down to the number of illuminated display
segments and not worth worrying about.

Same with the E30 but you can get it to go into standby by trying to

I think I had to request that it was added to the repository after an
update to pCP. Maybe it has been overlooked again.

Thinking back my issue wasn't that the DAC wouldn't enter standby, it
was the "pop" when it came out of standby. All the info is in the GitHub

It looks like you are using Archimago's settings for digital filtering
and upsampling. Does that explain why the DAC displays 384.0?

If anyone is interested I found a way to delay the time it takes for the
DAC to enter standby after playback stops. I added a second line to the
udev rule which delays standby by 60 seconds

Code:

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="152a", 
ATTR{idProduct}=="8750", TEST=="power/autosuspend_delay_ms" 
ATTR{power/autosuspend_delay_ms}="6"



I would prefer the player power state to control the DAC as it does for
piCorePlayer but this is a good second best.

[SlimDevices: Unix] Topping E30 udev rule

2021-08-16 Thread slartibartfast


When I first used a Topping E30 with piCorePlayer the DAC wouldn't go
into standby. Adding a udev rule

Code:

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="152a", 
ATTR{idProduct}=="8750", TEST=="power/control", ATTR{power/control}="auto"


fixed this and then the DAC entered standby when the piCoreplayer was
powered off in LMS and came out of standby when the player was powered
on.
I am trying out Volumio at the moment via the UPNP/DLNA plugin and when
I add the the same udev rule the DAC enters standby a couple of seconds
after playback stops and wakes up when playback begins sometimes missing
the first notes of the track. Powering the player on or off in LMS has
no effect. 
Does anyone know what this udev rule does and is there a way to stop the
player entering standby so soon after playback stops. I have seen udev
rules for USB involving autosuspend with a delay but I have no idea how
that is used either.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer USB off.

2021-07-17 Thread slartibartfast


If it is a Pi3B+ try this

Raspberry Pi 3B+

Main hub 1-1, all 4 ports ganged, all controlled by port 2 (turns off
secondary hub ports as well). Port 1 connects hub 1-1.1 below, ports 2
and 3 are wired outside, port 4 not wired.

uhubctl -l 1-1 -p 2 -a 0

Both should work. If you SSH in then run the command you can see the
reported result so you can see if it works. Then add it to tweaks. I
actually raised an issue on the GitHub page for uhubctl asking whether
the ports were independent or ganged and the reply was they were ganged.
When I tried following the instructions assuming they were ganged my USB
DAC didn't go into standby. I had to turn off port 4 to turn off my DAC
so I am still confused about that. 
uhubctl -l 1-1 -p 2-5 -a 0
should also work.

uhubctl -l 1-1 -p 2,3,4,5 -a 0
might work to turn off all USB ports

uhubctl -l 1-1 -p -a 0
turns all the ports off and then 
uhubctl -l 1-1 -p 1 -a 1
turns on port 1 which I think is the LAN.[image:

https://github.com/mvp/uhubctl#raspberry-pi-b2b3b
The info says that on the Pi3 all ports are turned off by turning off
port 2 but in my experience that is incorrect. When I tried turning off
port 2 only port 2 turned off. If you ssh into the Pi you can try
different commands on the command line. The result of the command will
be shown. The USB ports are 2,3,4 and 5 I think. I don't know if you can
turn off all the ports with one command but it might be possible.
Running
uhubctl ? might give options but it was a while ago when I messed around
with this so I can't be sure.

The command I use on a Pi3B to turn off USB port 4 is
uhubctl -l 1-1 -p 4 -a 0

a safe way of doing it if you have a spare card.
