[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] All synced players stop when one player drops out
I normally have several players synced and powered up: usually a minimum of a wired Boom, a wireless Boom and a wired piCorePlayer. The server is also wired. The wireless Boom is in the kitchen, and if I run the microwave it interferes with wifi reception so LMS can't reach that Boom. After about 30 seconds playback stops on all the synced players and when the microwave stops they all fire up again. It struck me that I don't really understand why all the other players stop, and ideally I'd like that behaviour to change :) There are other times when a player that disappears seems to block playback to its synced partners: a bluetooth player defined in pCP will do the same (or it used to - I don't know if that has changed) if the bluetooth speaker gets physically turned off, a USB DAC will do the same if the DAC itself is powered off (although configuring Squeezelite to stop and start in sync with the DAC fixes this case). So why is it necessary for all playback to stop when a synced player drops out, and can something be changed so that the other players continue without interruption? I would expect there to be a momentary interruption when the dropped player reappears, due to the usual syncing process, but that would be preferable to having the whole house go quiet when I use the microwave! I know I could look into making that Boom wired instead of wireless, but that's easier said than done in the kitchen, and that's not the point. The point is, what logic cases the other players to stop? They don't do it when a player is soft-powered-off in mid playback, and it would be nice if they didn't do it when the mechanism for sending audio to a dropped player senses a problem. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114190 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Do keep in mind that although both FLAC and ALAC files are lossless, ALAC does not have an embedded CRC from original creation.

The very wordy, 45-minute song/album "The Microphones in 2020" download came with its lyrics in its tags. Now this is coming up in every other search I do. Pretty funny. I don't see anywhere to customize what fields are searched... I'm wondering if I'll have to kick the lyrics out to a text file maybe, or is "Lyrics" tag searching part of the "full text search" plug-in?

This is only for the Touch it won't run on the Radio. You need to load the tun kernel driver using *insmod tun.ko* before running openssl or add the commands to /etc/init.d/rcS.local if you wanted openvpn to start at boot. I've also been testing a version of squeezelite with SSL on the Touch and Radio to see if it's worth trying to add SSL support to the firmware and both devices have no problems playing direct https streams. Unfortunately, it's not straight forward to run squeezelite with squeezeplay. You need to change enableAudio=1 in Playback.lua and restart squeezeplay before squeezelite with run. Additionally on the Radio you have to modify several lua files to stop the automatic powering off the amp when the idle timer triggers. One neat feature using squeezelite on the touch is you can run separate instances on the RCA and SPDIF jacks for 2 zones and you can use Choose Player to control either one.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Issues with album title updates in LMS
I have some of the same issues. In some instances I have corrected the artist and album artists tags but the album still show up under the old artist name. I have dozens of tag corrections that aren't reflected in my LMS library.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Track spontaneously appearing twice in album
This seems to happening quite frequently. I don't remember it happening in the dim and distant past but now it is happening enough to be really annoying.[image: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210320/be646769e2b7810716e4cbde2174030c.jpg] Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk slartibartfast's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35609 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114099 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS, Qobuz and UPnP
Hi At present I am running LMS 7.9 on my IMac where my FLAC music library also resides. I also have. Qobuz subscription. I run Squeezepad on an Ipad to use as a control point and direct output to my UPnP and Airplay enabled DAC / amplifier (Lyngdorf tda3400). When using Airplay as the route across the network all works reasonably well. However there are limitation - the inbuilt resolution limit built into Airplay (16/44?) and the fact I cannot save favourite tracks listened to on Qobuz via Squeezepad (to save favourites I have to go upstairs to the Mac and use the Qobuz interface directly). To overcome the Airplay limit I thought I would try switching to UPnP. Yes, I get a connection but funny things happen when I try and use Squeezepad. Tracks will only play one at a time (so cannot play a playlist or album without selecting every individual track), the play next track feature ( >>) does not work and at times a track will just stop playing as it nears the end. I have tried changing and checking some of the parameters in LMS (eg play all tracks on album) to no avail. So not sure where to look. Is this simply a problem with different interpretations of UPnP, is it a Squeezepad issue, have the Qobuz and UPnP plugins for LMS been updated and I should try and reload ? Or should I be looking for an LMS / Squeezepad alternative ? I did briefly try Audirvana but hated the Ipad interface when compared to Squeezepad (even though it did have the ability to save Qobuz favourites).
