It's hard to imagine a hardware error that will cause rdairplay to exit but not manifest itself in other ways. I'm used to hardware problems manifesting themselves at lower levels, e.g. screen freezes. Also, I've taken the hard drove out of a suspect machine, mounted it in an entirely differ

Have you looked in dmesg when rdairplay crashes? Usually the Linux kernel will log crashes there. On Wed, Mar 25, 2015 at 6:30 AM, Rob Landry <41001...@interpring.com> wrote: > > I have just looked at 14 Rivendell systems which I built and are currently > running a various stations. On two of the

So I had previously tested this on a 32-bit and a 64-bit Debian 7 machine with the latest Rivendell, but they run Jackd in front of an ALSA device. Since these machines are functional backups, and getting all this Rivendell/Jackd/ALSA thing working is kind of tricky (especially as I have them a

I have just looked at 14 Rivendell systems which I built and are currently running a various stations. On two of them, rdairplay will crash inexplicably while playing an audio file, leaving no trace in any log. On one of the machines, I tried upgrading to a more recent Rivendell version, but
