Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] PiCorePlayer - retry Network Mount, or delay startup somehow?
1. Run LMS on your NAS. 2. Put a manual power button on your pi, so it doesnt start up either on a power outage. 3. Put your NAS on a backup battery. 4. Write a script hunt four your NAS and Mount the drive, and restart LMS. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] PiCorePlayer - retry Network Mount, or delay startup somehow?
I have exactly the same problem with my Pi 3B+ setup and my ReadyNAS NV+ v2. Worse still, after a power outage, the ReadyNAS needs the power button pressed before it will startup, so the delay can be quite a while. This is so irkesome (mainly as my wife complains that "the Squeezebox is broken" - the height of her diagnosis - when it fails to restart successfully). I'm close to giving in and giving the Pi its own SSD for music storage as a workaround, but it feels like I shouldn't have to do this. Any solutions welcome!

Ive gone round and round on this..the biggest question is how long is too long to keep retrying. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

If the OP has a smartphone, what about a SSH shortcut to restart LMS ? ronnie Man in a van's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43627 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112036 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

How about just setting up a cron job to do mount -a every few minutes ? OK, it's a hack, but seems like it would work well enough. tw99's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=51684 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112036 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] PiCorePlayer - retry Network Mount, or delay startup somehow?
My gut feeling is Network wait would only work if the NAS was also the DHCP sever, which if it is slow to boot is not a good idea. I think we would need extra code to ping the NAS a wait for it. How long does the NAS take to be available? Is there a delay between the NAS being up and have drives visible to the network?
