Re: [slim] SB3 voltage range

2020-04-16 Thread davemal


Thanks all.

Really appreciate the comments. Will ask around if someone has another
ps that I can test with but looking less likely as a possible cause. I
will park it for a bit while I work on getting IRBlaster working with
squeezelite which will influence my decision on doing the caps..

cheers

But he measured it loaded, so he would likely see a much larger drop if
something was really wrong. Having said that, trying another one is
always a good thing. I've made the comment on capacitors because I've
now fixed many and this seems to be really happening more and more with
the SB3 reaching an age where these fail

It's a cheap SMPS, and even if it measures within the %+/- range it
doesn't mean its delivering sufficient current to drive the SB3.

If it does not drop below, it's likely good enough. Your SB3 is probably
suffering from capacitor failure

I've had similar good luck with homeplugs for several years.  

At my weekend cabin, I have a 3 homeplugs in use. One is connected near
main router/modem.  2nd is connected to a router in use as a switch only
(not assigning IP addresses). To this switch/router, I've attached a
vortexbox server running LMS and holding my music files and a TOUCH. 
the 3rd homeplug is connected to a BOOM in my bedroom.  The wiring in
this house is about 17 years old, and the 3 homeplugs are probably no
more than 15 feet away from each other (house is very small).  I plan on
eventually running ethernet cable here, but haven't had the need yet.

Re: [slim] This is driving me nuts

If your Lyngdorf amp is one with "Chromecast built-in", you might give
the LMS Chromecast plugin a try.  From what I've read, it can support up
to 24/192.  Can't guarantee gapless or ReplayGain support with these
plugins, though, so you'll have to test that.

Honestly, the best player for LMS is a Squeezebox or squeezelite-enabled
device.  If you have no other Squeezebox players to support, I'd suggest
switching to a full-featured DLNA server like MinimServer and using the
Lyngdorf controller app.

Maybe Qobuz is correct.

I'd say the plugin shows pretty much the same thing as Qobuz does. If
that's the wrong order, then you'll have to complain to Qobuz.

Re: [slim] SB3 voltage range

2020-04-16 Thread steve-g


I don't think it's ever been specified anywhere but generally most thing
run on 5V +/- 5% so thats 4.75 to 5.25V.

There's no guarantee that this is the right range for your SB3 though.

It COULD still be the PSU as it only takes a momentary drop in voltage
to potentially cause a reset.

Re: [slim] This is driving me nuts

2020-04-16 Thread liffy99

Don’t think the homeplugs are an issue. The wired connection is solely
for being able to calbrate and operate the amp from my Ipad. Music
playback is wireless.
Anyway, I switched off the UPNP plugin in LMS and reverted to playback
via Airplay - and everything works as it used to - single touch
selection and playback of individual tracks, next track in playlist
plays automatically, progress slider allows me to fast forward within a
track and still plays the next track when it reaches the end.
So seems like the UPNP side of things is the problem. Someone said that
LMS does not work well with UPNP (although it was fine until a few weeks
ago) and suggested I try a different UPNP application to the current
Plugin. But I’ve no idea how to do that. I looked at SourceForge but was
just drowned in a mass of technicality. 
I would like to use UPNP rather than Airplay as I have a few 24/96
tracks to play. Can anyone help ?

[slim] SB3 voltage range

2020-04-16 Thread davemal


Hello,

The last few months my SB3 has been resetting itself after random
periods of time. I have ruled out wifi and done all the resets.

My power supply is providing 4.9v with no load and 4.79/4.8v when
powered up. Does anyone know if this is too low ? I have a second ps
that I have tested with but it still rebooted and the voltage is similar
at a shade under 5v.

Just trying to see if anyone has experience with this - before I
potentially waste money on a new ps to see if it is... Really, really
want to rule everything out before going down the replace the caps
route.

cheers
