Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Spotty or Tidal playlist gets stuck, manual skip needed

2019-10-03 Thread thekman35


Thanks ralphy. 

You made me realise that stupid me was running an ancient version of
squeezelite 1.8. I was just using the version that's installed via
apt-get. Have installed the new one now and playlist no longer
stopping.

Off topic a little bit but hoping you can help with another issue I
have:

I use squeezelite with a Hifiberry AMP2+ DAC. My plan was to downmix the
left and right channels into 2 seperate audio outputs using asound.conf,
allowing me to run 2 instances of squeezelite on 1 RasPi.

When using this configuration, I find that after sometime of playing, or
resuming a playlist after a lengthy period of it being paused the audio
has an issue that starts repeating the same 1/4 second of audio 4 or 5
times and then moving onto the next 1/4 second, i.e DaDaDaDa,TaTaTa

I found some forum posts on this forum referencing the issue:
https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?97803-piCorePlayer-Squeezelite-on-Microcore-linux-An-embedded-OS-in-RAM-with-Squeezelit=777169=1#post777169
and also some other forumss refencing a fix:
https://www.max2play.com/en/forums/topic/stuttering-or-no-sound-on-resume-every-monring-or-so-pcm2707-usb-dac/
and https://github.com/sixeyed/squeezelite/issues/31

The ultimate fix is changing the audio output of squeezelite to the
hardware address: hw:0. This has worked for me also.

I was hoping that the newer versions of squeezelite no longer had this
issue but even after installing the latest, the issue came back again.

Would there be anyway to get this working using the downmix solution?

Thanks,

There was a problem with squeezelite and spotify ogg streams and was
fixed at version 1.9.3-1177.

If you're running an older build of squeezelite, please update and see
if the problems persist.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Spotty or Tidal playlist gets stuck, manual skip needed

2019-09-30 Thread thekman35


Hi,

Over the last few weeks, I've noticed that Spotty or TIDAL playlists
seem to get stuck on a track and not continue to the next track.
If I manually skip to the next track the song begins playing again. 

So far I can't find any pattern in terms of a length of time playing or
a certain amount of songs before it happens.
When checking the web interface that timer seems to tick up past the
length of the song for about 4 seconds and then repeats, i.e song length
is 3:04 then the timer would go 3:05-3:08 and then back again.

The only consistent pattern I've noticed checking the logs on the
Squeezelite player is the song ending and then a 10 minute gap before
'stream_thread:249 end of stream' as below:

[14:45:47.178317] vorbis_decode:228 end of stream
[14:45:47.178563] decode_thread:99 decode complete
[14:45:47.199010] codec_open:218 codec open: 'o'
[14:45:47.199447] stream_sock:384 connecting to 192.168.11.8:9000
[14:45:47.27] stream_sock:413 header: GET
/stream.mp3?player=b8:27:eb:1f:1e:15 HTTP/1.0


[14:45:47.263702] stream_thread:176 headers: len: 117
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: Logitech Media Server (7.9.2 - 1568726655)
Connection: close
Content-Type: audio/x-ogg


[14:55:48.618911] stream_thread:249 end of stream

nothing is then shown in the logs until the song is skipped

Is anybody else seeing this occur?
