Re: Problem with playback of URL sourced mp3 type files on LMS (Czech Radio�s iRadio)

2018-04-04 Thread mherger
I doubt there's a generic problem playing static mp3 files: it's what most podcasts and streaming services (Pandora, Deezer, Tidal, Bandcamp...) do. So, rather than playing with custom-convert I'd suggest you double check you theory by installing 7.7.6 on a computer, then 7.9.1. On the same

Network discovery is absolutely crazy in Win 10. Sometimes it doesn't show anything, then days later everything shows no problem! Try this, right-click the windows logo bottom left of PC screen, select "Run", type in "\\192.168.1.178" (without quotes, and replace with IP address of your Pi).

/mnt/FLAC will point to the root directory of your USB drive. If you have a folder on the USB drive called FLAC that you want to start in. Set LMS music directory to /mnt/FLAC/FLAC piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM. Homepage:

I'm in the process of moving my LMS server from my HPMicroServer to a Pi3 running 3.22 but I've ran in to 2 problems. 1. I cannot get the correct USB mount point. On my USB drive I have a FLAC folder in the root directory but I also have other folders in the root directory which contain the same

Hi Greg, I gave it a shot and here's what I find. If the pCP is still plugged in to the network using the eth0, everything works. AP, playlist, auto start... However, if you unplug the eth0 connection as you would to use it in the car, the playlist is lost when the pCP starts back up. Odd

Hi Greg, Yup, I did try "randomplay tracks" and it worked in the house, but for some reason not in the car. I'll try it a few more times to verify. I have it set in LMS to start playing when it's restarted, so I thought that would do it. I'll try the commands you recommended and see what

hi Howard Passman, Did you try "Randomplay Tracks" or "randomplay tracks"? This command will generate the random playlist but might not resume playing. Not sure how to send 2 commands :confused: So you could try creating a favorite of the random tracks and use auto start favorites. Next you

Relative to the pCP in my car... When the ignition is turned off, the power to the pCP is lost. Is there a way to have the player always start playing after rebooting from a loss of power and have it play a Random Song mix? A script or something. I do have it set to in Tweaks to Auto Start LMS

Is there a way to have my pCP start playing a song mix of specific genres when the player boots up? I don't want favorites. This is the one that I have in my car and the power to the pCP gets cut when the ignition is turned off. I would love for it to boot back up upon energizing and start

I suspected it was something wrong with the files - I've already managed to fix one errant album by embedding different artwork. I'll work through fixing the rest. JQW's Profile:

hi DavidBulluss, You should not reboot after you delete the file, it will get restored as you found out. :) If you feel inclined to do a reboot after you remove the file, you need to do a [Backup] to save current files. regards Greg
