Thanks Jim, It was even dumber than that. Somewhere along the line I turned off the internal pi radio. All is well now. Thanks for all your consideration and have a spectacular weekend. Howard d6jg wrote: > Did you set Squeezelite to look for LMS at 127.0.0.1? You should. -

I had copied all of the screens from before and set the AP Mode up the same way this time. It is 10.10.10.1 and, as mentioned, it does give my phone an ip address like before, but I can not open the pCP web page or 10.10.10.1:9000/material like I used to. Took me a long time to download a working

By default the WAP side IP is 10.10.10.1 but pCP.local may not work. Which are you trying? Jim https://jukeradio.double6.net VB2.4[/B] STORAGE *QNAP TS419P (NFS) [B]Living Room* Joggler & Pi4/Khadas -> Onkyo TXNR686 -> Celestion F20s *Office* Joggler & Pi3 -> Denon RCD N8 -> Celestion F10s

Hi Jim, Well, all is working now so I'm a happy camper once again. I did get AP Mode working...with the exception of I can't hit it with a browser. I use my phone to change any setting in pCP. It hands out an IP address and connects, but, as I said, I can't pull up the pCP web page. Not much of a

Hi d6jg, What version of pCP did you use? I suppose LMS may eventually start, but it didn't within a few minutes. With the way I have it set up, it starts to play within about 20-30 seconds, even before the pCP Player splash screen comes up. WAP mode wasn't the problem. AP Mode was. Cheers,

I built a standalone pCP in WAP mode with LMS not too long ago and it works fine without date/time. When I boot it it is set to auto start a particular playlist. Jim https://jukeradio.double6.net VB2.4[/B] STORAGE *QNAP TS419P (NFS) [B]Living Room* Joggler & Pi4/Khadas -> Onkyo TXNR686 -> C

Thanks Paul. The console showed the LMS load waiting for the time. It never went any further until I added a date in the bootlocal.sh file as you mentioned unless I had a network connection. For some reason none of the stuff I had documented worked until I started with pCP 7.0. Howard Paul Web

Hi Greg, I did manage to get it all working, but I had to start with pCP 7.0 and several tries to get a working LMS download and AP Mode extension. I don't know what that was all about. I could never get the NTFS extension to download, but it seems like it was included in the Full Update of Sque

Hi Howard, Did you set a static IP? By doing this you avoid some of the network checks. See step 17 in "'Standalone piCorePlayer' (https://docs.picoreplayer.org/projects/standalone-pcp/)". regards Greg Greg Erskine's Pr

2022-10-07 Thread Paul Webster
LMS does not really care what the date is. The delay is probably pCP waiting for the time. The file /etc/init.d/settime.sh has a delay and loop - and it waits for the year to be greater than or equal to 2018 ... so you could force the date to be something like 1/1/2022 at the top of that script

I have a server in my car so there's no network. I used to be able to modify the bootlocal.sh file to read (See below) and that would bypass LMS needing the time. I got help on this from Paul, but I don;t think he's still around. This doesn't seem to work with pCP 8.0 or greater. Anyone else run
