I don't think a new radio would be immune the the wireless connectivity issue. I'm using squeezelite and jive on two pi zeros, and they have been reliable. I was integrating Bluetooth, line level audio input streaming, and re-enabling the image viewer screen savers when I was interrupted by this project. Could you post your instructions for using WinSCP to upload the software so I can put it into the manual? I don't know how much storage is reasonable for log files to occupy on the radio. Then, they have to be uploaded for viewing. It was quicker and easier to stream the logs to a more capable machine. This is, hopefully, temporary use software. Also, it is important to run the software at boot up, which means you don't see the output except using 'tail -f', and until storage is exhausted. By the way, 'nc' and 'tail' are so much fun to watch. You can fiddle with the log level to get more or less console output, which is intended for debugging the wlanpoke script, not the radio. Without 'nc' you will miss the circular buffer prior events display, as it is not echoed to the console. (Perhaps it should be.) Would it be helpful to have a cookbook Windows solution for remote logging and display? You can run a reasonable Ubuntu in Windows 10, and have terminal messages scrolling up in a desktop window as an amusement. I have attached a recent 31613 log file from here as captured by -nc -l -k -p 1121 >> t21a.log &- and displayed by - tail -f t21a.log &-. Looking at the log file, during this brief time span, there were several disconnections. The signal levels were excellent. The bit rates of a couple declined to 5.5 Mb/s and 1 Mb/s at the time of ping failure. I remember these values falling earlier than in the last 2 seconds, but that is not shown here. AFAICT, things seem to be going well until suddenly, they aren't. Not wanting to make a habit of daily releases [sic], but the log file was produced by today's 0.5.1 update, 31610. It addresses several bugs and includes additional enhancements for troubleshooting. The 6 radios have been running for 4 days now on various versions of the software without other intervention. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: t21a_2020-09-19_16-54_tail_did.zip | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=31613| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ POMdev's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70558 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111663 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
