Hi everyone,
I've gathered a lot of useful information from this forums so far, so thanks. I'm really enjoying the LMS, Squeezelite-X, Castbridge and Spotty combination (running on a Windows 10 PC/server), and I'm so glad I stuck with this over Roon, which I trialled last year. However, I am having a bit of a a regular issue with Castbridge crashing, which I've tried a number of steps to resolve, unsuccessfully. I'm hoping someone will be able to help, as I've reached a bit of a dead end with troubleshooting myself. Background: The issue occurs with all 3 of my Chromecast Audios, along with a group set up containing them. When the issue occurs, Chromecast Audio playback stops and LMS switches to another device. I can restart playback on the same device immediately following this. In the Castbridge log, I see the following entry on each occasion (I can post a full log file if needed): Retarting Squeeze2cast after crash: C:\PROGRA~3\SQUEEZ~1\Cache\INSTAL~1\Plugins\CASTBR~1\Bin\SQUEEZ~1.EXE -Z -I -f C:\ProgramData\Squeezebox\Logs\castbridge.log -d cast=debug -x C:\ProgramData\Squeezebox\prefs\castbridge.xml Timing of the issue is intermittent. Sometimes it happens regularly throughout a single album but at other times several hours can pass between crashes. The crashes occur regardless of content (mp3, FLAC, local or streamed/radio content), so I know it's not corrupt audio files. Troubleshooting steps completed: - Confirmed no issues with casting via other methods (Spotify app, BBC Sounds etc.) over a long period of time to any CCA/group. - Reset and reconfigured my 3 Chromecast Audios. - Removed and re-added Home group containing these devices - Tested with different devices in the group - the same issue always occurs - Crash occurs regardless of which device or group is used, so doesn't appear to be hardware related - Full Wi-Fi strength to all CCAs. Pinged to each CCA to confirm no network drop at the time of the crash. 1/2ms constant response times to each CCA - Removed and re-added all CCAs to Castbridge - Removed and re-added Castbridge from my LMS setup - Audio format to CCA is PCM (Flow). Not tested others as this is mode I need, but I can do if needed. - Set Remove timeout to -1 for all players - LMS volume changes - different options tested and currently set to to "ignore all changes" Thanks for any help offered. If you need any more information, please let me know. Pete. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pete105's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70294 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104614 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
