Re: [slim] PiCore

2022-02-12 Thread d6jg

There are two stages in WiFi connection.
First is the SSID connection to the WiFi Access Point or Router and
second is the acquisition of IP address from DHCP server and connection
to the network subnet.
If you attempt to give the Pi a static IP address you simply will not be
able to tell whether it is working or not or more accurately when it
fails which bit you should troubleshoot.
It’s fairly common for WiFi to be up but the client can’t receive an IP
address for some reason or other.

Very interesting.  This option does not exist in my current version:
Logitech Media Server Version: 8.3.0 - 1643414649 @ Sat Jan 29 01:17:07
WEST 2022

The only option is to load at login.

I can't help I'm afraid apart from Saying that having run LMS in Windows
for a number of years I got frustrated with the occasional loss of
settings and other glitches that I have switched to piCoreplayer which
seems a lot more stable.

maybe just volume, mute, ffwd, rew?

I agree that the duet was designed as a set, and receivers sold on their
own were intended for additional rooms. So a receiver was never intended
to be standalone.

In a way, it's like a Roku streamer. They were intended to only work
with roku remotes, but people wanted integrated "smart" remotes, hence
the roku 3/ultra (with IR), which I have, because I want one harmony
remote to control everything. I don't want to use two remotes. I imagine
Roku's early models had a similar design philosophy to the Duet. Maybe
if there had been additional generations of the receiver, there would be
IR

again, I steer the conversation way off topic, sorry :o

Jim, I am curious, what is the "good technical reason"? I'm just curious
because I would like to know, and because perhaps the picore "how to"'s
should be updated to reflect this? 

I agree your approach to reserving the IP in the router for the MAC is a
good one and relatively easy.

I've always had that selected under various falors of Windows, now at
11.  Curiously, every now and then on a Win system full reboot, LMS
fails to load..  Not often, but enough to be annoying.  Manually
forcing LMS to then load is easy enough - but I often log out and in of
Win to fix the issue, in case there's anything else that is behaving
oddly.

I'm not always meticulous about shutting LMS before a Win reboot -  so I
wonder if sometimes LMS has not properly closed and therefore misses /
ignores the restart on boot option?
