Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS on Wandboard with ReadyNAS and Squeezebox Touch

It was working fine, but suddenly it began refusing all connections (it does respond to a ping with no problem). Until now I have been connecting to the board using SSH from my desktop computer. The last thing I was able to do, as I recall, was to change the Locale from the default "C" to EN_US-utf8 (so that accented characters could be read by LMS). But now every time I try to connect I get the "Connection refused" message. To me this implies that the board has booted. So I tried connecting the board to a monitor via the HDMI port and plugging in a keyboard via the USB port. When I power on the Quad, I get the Wandboard.org logo on the screen, but after that nothing except a flashing HDMI port icon and then a "No Signal" message from the monitor. The keyboard seems to be responding, because when I hit Ctrl-Alt-Delete the board restarts and I see the Wandboard logo again, but after that "No Signal" again. Any suggestions as to how I can troubleshoot would be appreciated. I'm ready to provide any information anyone might need. TIA Les Lestrad PS I do realize that this is a Linux problem and not an LMS problem, but it's very hard to get help, especially where Arch Linux is concerned.

That's something I said I was going to do about a year ago, but so far it has not happened. That was in this thread: https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?109818-Hoping-for-help-with-SQL-Playlist (That's purely for reference. I'll try to describe my goal here, so it should not be necessary to follow that link.) As I said in the second post in that thread, I would like to be able create random playlists (using either the built-in Random Mix or the SQL Playlist plugin) on the basis of relatively complex Boolean expressions, using both AND and OR filters, like this: (Country AND Instrumental) OR (Jazz AND Vocal) OR Rock Assuming those are all valid genre tags, I could easily create a library view containing all files with the Country genre tag, and from that another library view containing all of the Country files that also contain the Instrumental genre tag. I could do the same with Jazz and Vocal. And Rock would only require one step. Having done that, I would have three sublibraries that I would like my random mix to draw from. As far as I know, that is not possible; only one library view can be active, right? So I was hoping for a way to combine the three library views into one. But it's probably time for me to buckle down and learn a little SQL. Erland very generously provided some suggestions in the earlier thread and my only excuse for now following up is laziness. Thanks for replying Michael, but I really don't think this is something you need to worry with.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Artists not showing in menus
Looking at library.db for the "missing" artists: The artist has an id in "contributors" table The artist id has a corresponding id in "contributor_albums" table and this id points to "No Album" in "albums" table. The artist id has a corresponding id in "contributor_track" table and this id points to the correct URL in "tracks" table. Nothing has changed in my music files (tags) recently.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] C-3PO plugin, a trnscoding helper.
Earlier in this thread, it was stated C3PO is really not compatible with LMS 7.9.2. Not sure if the reasons why. If you are only using squeezelite devices, there is no reason to resample server side. Squeezelite can handle resampling needs. Even a RPI zero can resample to 384k without significant CPU load. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Question about stopping a stream
function in Squeezelite and iPeng, only pause. If I use the "off" button for the player in Squeezelite or iPeng the music stops but when I come back hours or days later and restart the player it appears that the stream was still running. Was it running all the time or did it just restart with current content for the same radio channel? I have IIRC the stream would re-start at the latest position once it got more behind than the buffer can take. So typically if you paused for more than a few seconds the behaviour should be the same as if you stopped it. -- Michael ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
