Bonjour,

J'avais déjà fais l'essai de revenir sur la version officielle , sans
résultats.

Actuellement, je crois qu'il y a un autre problème avec
DFLTFLNM="Logitech Media Server: Unix Tarball (i386, x86_64, i386
FreeBSD, ARM EABI, PowerPC)"
car les version officielles non plus ce descriptif de version donc le

Serge

Hello,

I had already tried to return to the official version, without results.

Currently, I think there is another problem with DFLTFLNM = "Logitech
Media Server: Unix Tarball (i386, x86_64, FreeBSD i386, ARM EABI,
PowerPC)"
because the official versions either this description of version so the
downloading with NIGHTLY = 0 or with # do not take place.

See you soon

Serge

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Spaces in Player names?

2019-02-11 Thread Paul Webster


I do use my LMS players in home automation and I even added a space (and
extra word) to make it easier.
For example ... I had LMS player called "Kitchen" but changed it to
"Kitchen Radio" to help distinguish it from lights in the kitchen.

If you ever want to use a control device outside of lms - like a
Homeautomation - you will remove that space ;-)
So better not to use it in the first place

This is a really neat feature - it means that squeezelite can be started
up with an unchanging command string, but any name changes persist. 
I've been playing with it on the Joggler build I've been working on and
it works perfectly.

Hi folks,

I'm a long time Squeezebox 2 user with the server running on my mac.

A year or so ago I switched to Chromecast audio as I mostly use Spotify,
it works great.
But I'd like to also stream music from my Mac. Does anyone know how to
do this and control it from my phone as I do spotify? Can SB server be
connected to Chromecast and controlled from a iphone app?

I'd like to chime in here - as I agree with Marco a lot. In particular
that the Extremus filter is pushing it quite a lot. How about a
compromise?

Right now I'm using Squeezelite (libsox) with the following upsampling
parameter string: (v::3.5:28:95:100:45)

Cheers,
Claus

I saw that some of you guys seem to be using the sox multi-threaded

Let me contribute some benchmarking I did on my i5 NUC:

with multithreading:

multithreading is not only a little - around 4% - slower (if we ignore
the accumulated processing time >400% ). It uses 4 CPUs and ten
thousands of extra cycles to achieve that. ;)

At least based on these results based on my real live resampling
testcase  I'd stay away from sox multithreading!

Enjoy.

The track shows in the player but playback stays on zero and never

Not at all! Cue are not needed. You should be able to play every flac

Could you please share one of this files? (please send the link to to

mhhh...

C-3PO does not have that specific option (yet), but you could use one of
the Additional effects slot instead, as I reported in my previous
comment, is that not you are looking for? Why? 

Please describe your mind in the github request, so I will find it
easily when I'll found the time to work on it.

AFAIK, SOX isn't limited in respect to libsoxr, C-3PO is limited in the
option it exposes, but you could easily override them, as explained.

Are you sure of that? I was thinking SOX is running 64bit, actually.

NOt only that, every and all the effects that are not in libsoxr.

Il looks strange, but SOX is not 'using' libsoxr by itself, they have
two different code base and for many reason I found SOX a better
choice.

In my opiinion 'extreme' is too extreme. A filter starting at 99.7 and
ending at 100% is too steep. Other than this, 3.05db are too little, I
use 6db instead and -h option. 

I normally use Linear phase, but some recording sounds better with
Intermediate or even Minimal, I agree, so 45% could make some
difefrence.

What I could really not understand in Archimago approach is that is
looking at this littte things when denying the possibility of effects
that produces much more difference in sound, just becouse he could not
'measure ' them, as the difference in doing conversion/resampling server
side, for instance.

English is great. C-3PO is great. Thank you.

I am still finding issues in my setup and I thought you would want to
know.

SEEK VS STDLIN
Im not using streaming at all just playing files from disc. Checking
only Enable Seek, no FLAC will play. I don't use cue sheets, does this
mean I have to have cue sheets to play when this is set? is this the
reason why nothing plays?
The track shows in the player but playback stays on zero and never
starts. The only way to play files off disc is to enable 'stdlin'. When
this is set FLAC will play but all data rates regardless of them being
based on 44.1 kHz or 48, they all play at the maximum sample rate and do
not play at closest synchronous rate.

It would be so good to not use stdlin (without cue sheets) but it seems
as though I have to. Just checked this with DSD files as well, I have to
have stdlin checked for all file types or they don't play.

(And I don't need different output sample rates for different formats,
just have PCM formats play at 705k if they are based on 44.1k, and 768k
if they are based on 48khz.)

Also are these settings mutually exclusive? that both don't work at
once? Could radio buttons be used instead of checkboxes??

In sox you could use the -p option to use a 'custom' phase, so in C-3PO
you could:

a. disable resampling for the codec in use.

b. add something like: "rate -v -p 45 -a -b 90.7 192000" to the
Additional effects AFTER resampling slot.

Please double check the resulting command.

It works to me, sure is not as powerfull as a specific option in C-3PO
GUI, but... 

I'll add the option in a future release, please open a request here:
https://github.com/marcoc1712/C-3PO/issues, just to remind me I'll have
to do it...

OK. Finally: Flexible phase adjustments are not supported (yet?). 
Thx for the feedback.

I think it would be nice if C-3PO would offer a simple free configurable
field
to be able to tailor a complete sox "effect" string. 
(That would also make Marco's live easier on the long run. ;) )

It'd make the plugin much more flexible.

comparison to squeezelite:

C-3PO uses the sox binary and not libsoxr directly. That's limiting the
plugin. 
squeezelite, using libsoxr,  can offer a broader scope of resampling 
options as being offered by libsoxr. 
Beside that, using libsoxr directly would allow to run 64bit.

Obviously DSD would be an issue. sox could still be used for special
purposes.

Of course getting direct access to libsoxr would require to write a
resampling application. 
That's not too difficult though. (Even I managed to write such an app ;
))


When it comes to the Archimago stuff. 
As much as I question most of his findings on numerous topics, he IMO
got a point on the resampling part.
I'm not saying that I like his resampling config choice best. He IMO is
pointing into the right direction though.
Don't forget resampling (or any other DSP) will always be a compromise.
