Can you see them if you rotate through them?  If none of the VU meters
are showing, you will need to reset jivelite.  Press the reset button in
the jivelite section on the tweaks page.

This can happen if you setup jivelite when on a wired connection, then
change to wireless.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] picoreplayer without network

2017-09-18 Thread steff

SOLVED

I can not understand why so many wonder why the need to have a network
streamer not networked...

Anyway it was more simple than what I could imagine... I just configured
a static IP address and... problem solved.
I now have two "storage"... one is the local 256 GB USB stick for low
resolution commercial music and the other one is the HP Proliant running
as a NAS with TB of high resolution music.
If I am in my studio I can play both... if I move to the pool, I play
from USB without reconfiguring anything.

Thanks to all.

Using a 3rd partition on mmcblk0 is not supported in the web interface. 
Do it manually, make sure LMS is not running when you move it.   You
will also need to look at the file.

/home/tc/.slimserver.cfg

And update that file with the appropriate locations.

So why don't you just use a local player program instead of a network
player one?

I will try to set a static IP address on the wired Ethernet and see if
the network will come up, but I suppose it will not.

max2play has a plugin that uses your pi's built-in wifi to create it's
own network, piCorePlayer doesn't offer this option.

I use this in my car, controlled with Squeeze Ctrl on my phone, it works
great, see my sig.

LMS TCP/IP socket to communicate with players so it needs a network IIRC
even if you use LocalPlayer plugin which bypasses nertwork for playing
files.
I don't know pCP but if the network interface confgrued using DHCP and
you have no network connection then none of the basic network parameters
will be setup such as IP address of interface (even if not up),
gateway/default Route and subnet mask.  Can these not be setup manually

My Rpi3 has the built in WiFi... I can even attach a USB WiFi adapter,
but if not registered on a network, it will not play.

Maybe linux works different from Windows: in Windows, if the the PC has
a network adapter, even if not connected, the TCP\IP works!
In linux it seems not to be the same... TCP/ip is not up if the network
adapter is not connected, so no way for the LMS to start (and for the
player to reach it).

This is my case: I have this PiCorePlayer in a box with amplifier,
speakers and batteries.
Wish to play my music even if I am, for example, at the sea, on the
beach.

It is normal for a UNIX system to require an operating 127.0.0.1 address
and TCP/IP stack for normal running. Windows is the same, as are 90% of
general use operating systems.

If you look @ the startupscript from lms:

Since lms is a server for network attached players - you need a
network.

Why didnt you just attach a simple wlan adapter into your pi ?

btw: The Touch and the rpi are two complete different things - you cant
compare them in this case.

Sorry, I can not understand: why should I need a network to play files
locally stored on the USB stick? Moreover everything is in the very same
box: player, LMS, storage.
The LMS server address of course is specified and it is the 127.0.0.1 as
suggested (if I leave it blank, it wont play even if networked) but
seems that if network is not UP, then TCP\IP is not avaialble, so not
way for the player to reach the LMS even if running in the same box.

I found the same question here

http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?101339-Using-the-Touch-without-Internet

but on my setup there is no way to get the option to go on without
network.
