-D'OH!!-
Thanks so much.  It -never- ceases to amaze me how I -still- sometimes
don't think through all (directory and file) permissions consequences
even after more than a dozen years since converting virtually everything
over to Linux and other *nix flavors.  [ Here I had just increased
access security -- so I could quickly surmise permissions were likely
the problem, but I -really- didn't "see" folder execute (off) as the
logical reason for the breakage. ]


That handy link you referenced is also a great reminder to take better
advantage of the "sticky bit."  I think many of us can forget the
(strong!) utility of that at our peril!  I certainly know I can take
better advantage. :confused: :rolleyes:


*Thanks again!*

I help administer various Squeezeboxes
(mostly Classic / SB3, Touch and an ever greater number of 'SqueezeLite'
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/lmsclients/files/squeezelite/)
devices)
These clients typically run against LMS 7.9x on LinuxMint 20.x or Ubuntu
20.04.x
Open Source 'Squeezer'
(https://f-droid.org/en/packages/uk.org.ngo.squeezer/) from F-Droid
serves as a remote control for most of these installations.

If this becomes tiresome, you can use a custom-config.conf file to
upsample all FLAC to 24/192:

I don't know much about Qobuz and if it's not streamed as FLAC then this
won't work.

I run LMS on picoreplayer on a 3b+, but I have read here that people run
LMS on a Zero W. You could just give it a try, even without mounting
your NAS as a library (say, put a few albums on a USB Thumb drive). If
you are already running pcP and squeezelite on your 2, Just go yo your
LMS tab (under beta, see bottom) in the pcP UI and follow this:

https://docs.picoreplayer.org/how-to/install_lms/ (note that the exact
details might be for a previous version of pCP, it's ever evolving)

It very well may not be your problem, but you can eliminate a variable,
and you might like it, maybe even enough to buy another pi :)

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Roon Ready ?

2021-11-16 Thread swisstony


Hi.  An update as requested.

I downloaded LMS 8.2.1 whcih allowed me to upgrade my Touch to version
7.8.0 r16754.
I then installed the EDO add in.  It took a few attempts with some error
messages and reboots needed.
I turned off LMS for the Roon link to be reenabled.
It all seems to work - i can play 24/192 audio tracks from Qobuz and the
rates show on my DAC.

Only issue i have is that i sometimes hear a click when there is a track
change with different bit rates.  That said, it coudl be my DAC

Anyway... great to be abel to use the Touch again.  What an amazing
piece of kit!

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Playback stops when starting up new player or app

2021-11-16 Thread Puniam


I am running LMS on a Mini-PC (Celeron/8Gb Ram, Music locally on a
SATA-SSD, Debian 11, LMS 8.2.0) and have, as I said above, exactly the
same problem with my SB Radio.

Bevore that I was running LMS on a very low powered NAS (QNAP TS-110,
local SATA-HDD, 256MB Ram, LMS 7.7.6) for years and it didn't have that
problem. I don't think it's caused by whatever hardware you are running
your LMS on.

Regards
Andre
