That's sounds like great news for those interested in mutliboot. Im sure
BerryBoot author will eventually also create custom image, maybe it's
prioritised on demand. Btw update problems I was referring to, it was
actually with BerryBoot. I'm not 100% sure if I ever used PINN..hmm
maybe once . Still glad it allows for updates.

Oh I see what you mean.. so folder view like Songs or tracks ..in
addition to artists, albums etc


Well perhaps I got this wrong but it seems obsolete really. What will be
use case of this?

-If it was to find song by title - you have quick search which is way
more convenient 

-If it was to shuffle all your songs - you have Random Mix ..which will
give you some result. 

I'm clearly missing smth here, but don't know why would you need that?

Siema Jaca, thank you for your feedback.

Sorry for not responding long time. Problem with the multiboot using
PINN was resolved by the PINN author on my personal request. Image was
prepared and it is working without any issues. So all of you: feel free
to join the mutliboot family with piCorePlayer :) And you does not need
to reinstall image with the new version under PINN - updates are
maintained directly from the piCorePlayer - the same as for regular,
direct image.

I was asking author of BerryBoot to prepare compatible image for this
system but without response.

In terms of question about library - I was asking about creating a view
for all my tracks from entire library, without using any criteria such
as year, genre, etc. The LMS is missing this kind of view by default but
it is common view for almost all known (for me) audio softwares (DAPs,
Android apps, Windows apps, etc).

And of course I am using the Material skin for the LMS :) Also for the
Android controller :)

I personally would advise against going with multi boot. Although it
seems like smart idea, it can actually creates headaches. From my
experience it's better to keep it simple and if you really want to use
rpi for dual etc purpose get another sd card..

Ideally you want dedicated rpi always on LMS..

If you really need a multi boot, I believe you can request image from
Berryboot..  Saying that please remember you will need new image when
you wanna update. (Unless smth changed since I tried it.)

Regarding library question.. I'm not entirely sure what you meant, 
but you can create Library Views which basically separate your library
into smaller chunks with all tracks meeting certain criteria.. No need
to rely on playlists.

Assuming you are new.. Please check material Skin plugin which allows
for quick library view switching. And search forums for more details

[SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer 8.1.0 image for RPi multi boot software (PINN or BerryBoot) and library

2022-01-27 Thread godzini...@gmail.com


Hello community.

I am looking for a solution to run the newest piCorePlayer (8.1.0 64
bit?) on my Raspberry Pi4B under the multi boot software PINN or
BerryBoot. I was struggling with creating the image by my own. Maybe
some of you already created a blank image or have some advice for me?
Are it even possible? The piCorePlayer is based on piCore distribution
for which these multiboot images are available so I think that
piCorePlayer should run in this way too.

Second question: how to create a library entry for all track
collections? Is it possible? Manual creation of a playlist containing
all tracks is the only way?

Thanks!

Right now I am using Docker versions of the LMS and Squeezelite under
OpenMediaVault custom Intel machine.
