Re: [slim] Delete Genres

2019-08-11 Thread Michael Herger

I suspect that _createGenre in Schema.pm (or the database table
definition perhaps) needs a check on genre with different case already
existing and only add if not present.


I'm a little surprised about these reports, as I thought we got rid of 
all attempts of normalization at some point (7.6?). There must be some 
code left still doing some case mangling. But I'd rather remove it than 
add more of it.

Re: [slim] Player synchronisation problems with new mesh wifi

2019-08-11 Thread chill


That makes sense.  So Shairtunes wasn't the culprit but the victim, and
I drew the wrong conclusion from the error messages.  Whatever's causing
this occasional 37s dropout when players are synced and playing is quite
a rare phenomenon in my case.  I've had my RPi powered down and back up
numerous times today, and haven't had one instance of the dropout
problem.  But there do seem to be one or two other users with the same
issue, dating back to 2014.  It seems like the RPi might be a common
factor.

Re: [slim] Player synchronisation problems with new mesh wifi

2019-08-11 Thread philippe_44


What I have observed on my own network is that, from time to time, my
wifi system goes "nuts" which causes players to disconnect randomly. As
a result, players in sync will stop and restart as soon as a player
re-joins, this is the way LMS works. Then, you'll have all these
messages from Shairtunes because each instance stops when the player is
disconnected and restarts when it comes back. That can be very annoying
and I've never been able to figure out why. I had that with 3 different
generations of routers and PLC (unfortuntaly I use PLC). Sometime it
happens continuously for a day or two and then I don't have anything for
3 month. I've never been able either to correlate it with RF issues and
I leave in a non-polluted WiFi zone.

Sorry Greg - I missed this.

I'm not so sure about that.  You can apparently show the current CPU
frequency with:

Code:

sudo cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq



On my RPi4, running pCP (LMS & Squeezelite) I've never seen it show
anything but the currently set maximum.  So apparently there's a
difference, certainly in terms of heat generation, between an idling CPU
@1500MHz and one under load at the same frequency.  Or maybe that
command isn't doing what I think it is - that might explain why I never
saw it report a different frequency when I briefly played with the
governor settings in the tweaks menu.

What do you know - that old thread has just come to life again:
https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?101372-Skips-while-playing-in-sync

It seems like I simply encountered a long-standing issue - nothing to do
with my mesh wifi.

It's quite possible that where I thought disabling and re-enabling
Shairtunes2 solved my problem it might simply have been that that
process restarted LMS.  Oddly, I don't think I ever actually did that
manually.  I did reboot pCP, but maybe that's not enough - maybe LMS
needs to be restarted after everything's up and running.  If it happens
again that'll be a simple thing to test.

[slim] Squeezebox Classic issue

2019-08-11 Thread muggo


I've just bought a new amp to fix a problem that now appears to be my
old SB Classic playing up.  Luckily I have a spare Classic.
The problem is that the output on one channel is very quiet compared
with the other.  It plays, but at greatly reduced volume. 
I've plugged it onto a different setup & get the same result.  Swapping
output leads swaps the channel with the fault. 
It's not an LMS issue as the new player fixed the problem.
Any ideas please?

Re: [slim] Pitastic

The amp got up to operating temperature, and I connected the fan at
14:16.  It seems to drop the temperature by ~5 degrees.  I'm guessing
it's no greater because it's mostly just moving warm air around inside
the amplifier, as kidstypike suggested.  The fan's not really big
enough, nor suitably ducted, to draw in fresh air.  I don't think it's
worth the effort.

That's true, and it has.  The baseplate has a grid of mounting holes:
[image:
http://www.cjh.me.uk/MyPhotobucket/cache/DIYHifi/Enclosure/Base%20plate_480.jpg]

And the top plate has ventilation slots right above where I've mounted
the RPi:

http://www.cjh.me.uk/MyPhotobucket/cache/DIYHifi/Enclosure/Top%20plate_480.jpg]

And the front and back plates don't seal against the baseplate.  So
plenty of ventilation.

I've now added the fan to the RPi4 in the amp, and I'm waiting for the
amp to warm up to see what effect the fan has.  This is more out of
curiosity than need, and I've left the fan's power connection accessible
so that I can disconnect it easily.

Agreed.  I needed a case for my spare 4B 1GB, so I ordered one of these
on the strength of your earlier post.  It arrived this morning.  I paid
£1 more and got the version with an SD card reader and a 3A power supply
:-)

I ran the same oggenc job that took my amplifier-mounted 4B 4GB up to 57
degrees.

Wired for 5V the fan is impressively quiet, but I wired it for 3.3V, and
it's effectively inaudible - I can only hear it if I put it close to my
ear.  Not that I need it, but I'm now toying with the idea of mounting
such a fan over my amplifier's 4B, since it's so completely quiet.
