Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS and Apple M1 Mac
There's no harm in deleting static files that can be restored at will. Like you say, if it works then great, if it doesn't then just reset and try to find another solution. I don't doubt you know what you're talking about. But it's little helpful here, as I'm trying to understand why something that should just work does not work. As I said: feel free to start a new discussion in the dev group to look into your suggestions in detail. But not here. It's noise - and potentially doing more harm to users' installations.

Hi Barry - sorry to hear you're still fighting the fight. Sounds like you're much like I am - able to get by, but out of my depth when things go a bit wrong. If you can check my notes in this post, it might help narrow things down. Even if my help is limited to letting the gurus here know how a working openSUSE instance is configured! I've just now run an OS update on my other (home vs. office) server, so have this fresh in my head. To put the critical bits of the great help I got from Roland in one place, and assuming that your install of OpenSUSE Tumbleweed is very similar to mine (all with sudo as needed): - Verify that /etc/ld.so.conf.d contains the line Code: include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf - Add file /etc/ld.so.conf.d/99libperl.conf with content Code: /usr/lib/perl5/5.32.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/CORE -obv. the 5.32 will change if we refer to this in future - Create symlinks for expected libperl: Code: cd /usr/lib/perl5/5.32.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/CORE ln -s libperl.so libperl.so.5.32 ln -s libperl.so libperl.so.5.32.0 - Run Code: /sbin/ldconfig ldd /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/arch/5.32/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/XML/Parser/Expat/Expat.so | grep -i libperl This latter should return a path - I get libperl.so.5.32 => /usr/lib/perl5/5.32.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so.5.32 (0x7f96b63c6000) In my case, that and an update to latest LMS did the job. Also note that as you say, openSUSE still sees this as squeezeboxserver for me, so I start with "service squeezeboxserver start".

Like you say, if it works then great, if it doesn't then just reset and try to find another solution. Either way, what has worked for me from Perl 5.20 to 5.30 is in fact hinted in bootstrap.pm: Code: # This causes a problem in that when we 'use' one of these modules, # the CPAN/Foo.pm would be loaded, and then Dynaloader would be # called, which loads the architecture specifc parts - But Dynaloader # ignores @INC, and tries to pull from the system install of perl. If # that module exists in the system perl, but the $VERSION's aren't the # same, Dynaloader fails. As I see it, there are two possible approaches to this issue. You either use a dedicated Perl to run LMS as a portable application, which still requires building the appropriate arch dependant binaries, or you make sure that the versions match by deleting the one that can't be used in the present system. gordonb3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71050 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113345 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

The cue files looks like the previous problem cue file and so fix should work. To see what is happening.

If you have a problem with double track in latest 8.0.1 or 8.1.0 after a scan which "clears data and rescans everything" - post a copy of the cue file so that it can be examined - that is the only way it will be fixed. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113355 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Did you "clear database and rescan everything" You'll have to go back to 7.9.* pre Oct 08 2020 to find "old" behaviour. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113355 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Search problems - LMS 8.0.0 on Synology
Hi, I am running LMS 8.0.0 on a Synology machine (x86_64). The following issues appear equally when using the LMS web interface or my Android controllers (SqueezeCtrl, Orange Squeeze). Full text search plugin is activated (Can I work on the settings anywhere, can't find it...?) I have two problems related to search functions: 1) I enter in the regular search field field an artist name - it doesn't matter which name - as a result always (!) 67 artists appear in the artists category among which the searched artist is. However, the results for the albums category is correct! Only albums of the respective artists are shown. Actually, artist search is effectively not usable right now... 2) Is there a way or a plugin to activate a search history for my music as in Spotty? I think it's rather tiresome to type in alway the search terms... kosmonaut_75's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69351 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113457 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Tidal hi-res through LMS 8.0 - bitrate limited to 44.1?
Tidal HIFI used to deliver (at least they claimed) CD quality audio. In the past Tidal 'master' tracks where FLAC (lossless) compressed 24bit/96kHz files. Then MQA came into the picture, MQA is a proprietary format to (lossy) compress the additional samples into the LSB bits of the audio data. Although not many details ar known it boils down to the fact that e.g. that take 96Khz/17 bit audio, downsample this to 48kHz fs, then use the the lower 2 or 3 bits to store some (lossy) compressed data. This compressed data is used in the (MQA licensed) playback chain to 'recover' (which is in fact not possible) the original 96kHz fs. There is a lot of filtering an processing done with MQA, whther it sound better or worse is a matter of personal taste, but it is definately not tha master recording as the performer and the audio engineer intended it to be. Since MQA is proprietary, the process can only be done on licensed hardware and/or software. At this moment many of the Tidal tracks are being 'upgraded' to 'hi-res'. In fact, many of those 'hi-res' tracks are 44.1kHz 16 FLAC MQA encoded, which means the lower 3 bits contain noise if not processed by an MQA licenced DAC or decoder. This means you get worse than CD quality for a premium price when played back via an SB or one of the many existing receivers with Tiday support. For me the reason to cancel my Tidal subscription after many years. Besides the above, feaures like room correction, digital crossovers and digital volume control algorithims also will make things worse when applied to MQA encoded audio. MQA is nothing more than a lot of marketing fuzz to sell the same music again in another format. To introduce a new form of DRM and to make people buy new hardware. The fact that it's proprietary implies also the risk that you end up with something like Betamax or SACD for which you might not able to buy playback devices later. One of the many articles about MQA: https://benchmarkmedia.com/blogs/application_notes/163302855-is-mqa-doa Brings me aslo to a question, it seems Qobuz is still delivering true CD quality, which might replace my Tidal subscription. Is Qobuz this supported by LMS ? prutser's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44996 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113430 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Even with memory on high, it did not finish the scan, its canceled unexpectedly on database optimization. The memory usage was always this high. I had to restore my old image, and this one runs fine. With this image, the memory usage is the same. I also went ahead and ordered a raspberry PI 4.
