I just did a rough test with squeezelite log level setting set to "stream=info", then running the below script and cycling through some local tracks and internet streams. The script just copies the log file and then compares the log to the copy every .3 seconds and if they are different gets the

Unfortunately, I only have Echo Dots, so I'm not sure if I can debug that. The Bluezalsa support in pcp does not include direct aac support, so it would be converted by squeezelite to a normal pcm stream. But you could try to restrict the codec on the pcp squeezelite page to pcm,flac to make t

hi fredall, How deep into this do you want to go? First you need to understand the basics of Tiny Core Linux, then learn about (re)creating extensions. Personally, I don't think it is worth the effort. http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/book.html Alternatively, it might be easier to wri

Just thinking out loud here! Could be wrong, usually am. :) If you are going to add a third partition make sure your second partition is adequate for your future needs. Plan for a backup strategy. Think about how you do a full pCP upgrade of the SD card if an instu update fails. I feel comman
