[SlimDevices: Unix] Squeezelite randomly and frequenty causes 100% cpu usage for a few seconds

2017-04-30 Thread rdmguy

Hello everyone,

I have installed squeezelite from the git repository with the newest
current head revision onto my arch linux server.
The server runs both LMS and squeezelite with a usb sound card attached
to the server.
This has worked for a long time but recently I have been getting these
very frequent lags (every 5 seconds roughly) that cause the entire
server to freeze for 2-3 seconds.
I am not using pulse audio but alsa.

When i check the cpu usage with "top" I can see that whenever the lag
happens the CPU usage of squeezelite goes from under 10% to 100% for the
duration of the lag.

The logs in info mode seem to coincide with the following trace pretty
much whenever this lag happens:


Code:

[00:07:22.249536] output_thread:655 XRUN



I launch squeezelite with the following command:


Code:

/usr/bin/squeezelite -a 80 -n Wohnzimmer -m abc -f /var/log/squeezelite.log 
-d all info -s localhost -C 3



The server is certainly powerful enough to not be at 100% cpu for
squeezelite.

Any idea what is going on here?
Thanks for any input!

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Netbooting piCorePlayer 3.x

2017-04-30 Thread epoch1970

I am done with it.
I fiddled with every possible aspect of the software and hardware on my
test setup, and my conclusion is that it is not possible to get 5
players to boot together, repeatably, with a Pi 3 as the server.

Perhaps there is still room for improvement in the firmware, but it's
possible we'll have to wait for Pi 4 to get netbooting to work in real
life...

I found a work around for my situation. The original SB remote didn't
have a home button, but since I usually use a Harmony Home remote I
tried mapping "home" to an unassigned button. Pressing "home" redirected
to the top screen.

Great job. 
All channels work ok for me. Could you describe hot to start 4 instances
of squezzelite on piCorePlayer image?
I'm also wonder if you finished (de)activation part.

For 3.20 on the tweaks tab of the webgui, set jivelite autostart to no,
save the config and reboot.  Jivelite must not be running during the
calibration.

After the reboot, ssh to pcp and login as the tc user.

You need to find out what the input device is for your screen and set
the TSLIB_TSDEVICE env variable and run ts_calibrate 

export TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/event1
sudo -E ts_calibrate

After the calibration is complete, you will also need to modify jivelite
section of /home/tc/www/cgi-bin/do_rebootstuff.sh for your screen.  The
default is for the rpi official 7" screen as that's the only screen we
support.

Go back to web gui and reable jivelite autostart.  Make sure you backup
your configuration and then reboot.  If you don't backup you will loose
all the changes you made above.

The pcp command moved in 3.20 and I didn't notice it.

JiveLite 0.1.0
sh: /usr/local/sbin/pcp: not found

$ which pcp
/usr/local/bin/pcp

Looking at it.

Yes, you can control any squeeze device from Jivelite, at the main menu,
there should be a option to select the player.   What I was asking was a
different issue, and was a result of things not being backed up in
piCorePlayer.

OK, I understand now.  This interface is not designed to be used to
control multiple SqueezeX (players).  It is designed to be used for one
player and that player's state is reflected in the interface.  Sorry, I
thought this was like the Logitect Squeezebox Controller app from the
app store.

Thanks for clarifying that.

The left button on the remote doesn't work but a mouse click with the
cursor in the right place works.

With jivelite the sleep key is mapped to ESCape on the slim devices
remote.  Try that.

Hi Marshalleq,

What do you actually do to manually add Roon?

piCorePlayer is essentially "squeezelite", so behaves as a Sqeezebox.
