For the settings on reboot … there is a menu item in the pCP specific
part of Jivelite to make a backup - because pCP avoids writing to
storage unless told to do it.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Noob Question - HDMI output with pCP/Jivelite and attached screen.

2023-01-02 Thread Paul Webster


I don't remember if pCP is happy driving 2 screens.
However, an alternative approach is to run some extra software to
customise the output to a screen.
I am sure that there is more than one set of tooling that does this -
but I noticed this one was discussed recently.

I think the display part is generic and does not rely on using
AudioSabre DAC.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Picoreplayer and HDMI output

2022-12-30 Thread Paul Webster


I suggest trying the 32-bit pCP because pCP team often say that the 64
bit version brings its own issues.

If that does not work then try removing the "hdmi" lines from the end of
the file.

If that still does not work then try putting a value in for gpu_mem ...
perhaps 64 or 128 (and remove the # from the start of the line when
trying it.

However, for a system that I built recently I went back to pCP 8.1 (or
maybe 8.0) so that the TV remote could be used to navigate the menus

In the past I have left those 2 lines in place and still used HDMI, but
that was with KMS not FKMS.

I read a description of them that said that they use HDMI ARC (Audio
Return Channel) ... if that is the only way that they work then they
might not work at all when directly connected to Raspberry Pi.

So a suggestion ... see if you can get those HDMI connected speakers to
work with a regular Raspberry Pi OS.
If you can then it suggests that it should be possible with pCP once the
correct incantations are found.
If you cannot then you might be able to get help from Raspberry Pi
themselves ... but if only ARC then might be doomed.

Deactivate it if you do not want a player on it.

on pCP ... Jivelite is a controller only (it is not SqueezePlay).
So having it runninf just gives you the ability to control things.

Perhaps your Squeezelite is not running.

You are multi-zone … but the zones are very close together.
Simply run an extra copy of Squeezelite with a different audio
destination.

You might have to write your own script but if you have found a
description elsewhere then hopefully that guide will tell you how to do
it.
For the 2nd instance … tell it to pretend to have a different “MAC”
address so that LMS sees it as a different player - and give it a
different name (eg sub).

There might be other ways of doing it - eg using ALSA

If the device was listed when clicking “more” in pCP web interface then
it really should have been OK for Squeezelite- at least to run.

You could try running Squeezelite from the command line (pCP can be
coaxed to show you what it is using) and then you might see a more
specific error message at the terminal.

rake the first number with the slimserver.pl on it ... in this case

2022-12-01 Thread Paul Webster


Just to double-check ...

The system that you cannot reliably ping is where your LMS is
installed.

If you access the console you can stop LMS (by stopping the perl process
that is running it).

You can then check to see if the networking situation improves.

If it doe then at least there is somewhere to research further.
For example - something could be stealing all of the CPU and the system
is unable to respond to pings etc in a timely fashion.

Then you could remove the BBCSounds plugin from the file system and
restart LMS.

Then you could see if things are back to normal.

It does seem unlikely though.

Not for LMS/Player installation - but applies in set-up where there is a

There is a button on the LMS page that allows the user to remove the LMS

when LMS is being removed.
Those items change behaviour depending on whether or not LMS cache is
found.

Perhaps the pCP team can come up with a way to make it more efficient
(e.g. store result in a file and recreate the file if user choose to
move cache via pCP menu).

While you wait, you could edit LMS.cgi and make it always set

Michael provided a line of code from the pCP web page provider that is
called when you visit that page in pCP.
I presume that pCP is trying to determine where the cache file is so
that you can move it later if needed.
LMS is not involved in that in any way.

If it does not work with a recent Raspberry Pi OS (I tested with
2022-09-22-raspios-bullseye-armhf ) then it is almost certainly not
going to work with pCP.

If using raspios then the only thing you have to do is
sudo cec-ctl --playback
because it defaults to using kms and the tooling is already installed.

Without detailed logs it will be hard for people to help you trace and

If you are using Dynamic Playlists 3 then perhaps write a message with

2022-11-13 Thread Paul Webster


That warning is a general purpose reminder ... that you should shutdown
LMS properly rather than simply turning off the power.

pCP without LMS can tolerate simply being turned off because it once it
is running it makes almost no use of the "disk".
However, that changes when LMS is running.
LMS frequently writes to the storage - and turning off while a write is
in progress can make a mess of the file system and if it was writing the
its underlying database then it is possible that LMS would not restart
on reboot.

8.1 works

Minimum steps to reproduce

Fresh SD card and put pCP 8.1 on it
Edit config.txt
gpu_mem=80 # For RPi1 not sure if needed for others

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d

No need to comment out dtparam=audio=on ... which brings bonus that
"headphone" device will still exist and, I presume, be available for
Squeezelite (along with HDMI via iec958:CARD=vc4hdmi,DEV=0 )

Extensions - add v4l2-utils.tcz (to get the CEC controls)
(no need to resize SD card in this minimum setup - but you will have to
if you later install Jivelite).

pcp br

sudo cec-ctl --playback (ultimately ... put it in Tweaks as a startup
option but without "sudo " at the front)

sudo cec-ctl --monitor

use TV remote arrow keys and you should see
Received from TV to Playback Device 1 (0 to 4): POLL
Received from TV to Playback Device 1 (0 to 4): USER_CONTROL_PRESSED
(0x44):
ui-cmd: right (0x04)
Received from TV to Playback Device 1 (0 to 4): USER_CONTROL_RELEASED
(0x45)
Received from TV to Playback Device 1 (0 to 4): USER_CONTROL_PRESSED
(0x44):
ui-cmd: down (0x02)
Received from TV to Playback Device 1 (0 to 4): USER_CONTROL_RELEASED

ui-cmd: left (0x03)
Received from TV to Playback Device 1 (0 to 4): USER_CONTROL_RELEASED
(0x45)
Received from TV to Playback Device 1 (0 to 4): POLL

You should also see that "up" does command line history recall if you
have the RPi console visible on TV.
If you had installed Jivelite and had it visible then you should be able
to move through the menus (do not use Grid screen because no way to do
equivalent of click / brightness).

... I went back to pCP 8.1 and it didn't work ... then back to 8.0 and
it didn't work ...
so just before I tried 8.0b3 (where I am pretty sure I had it working) I
tried one more thing ...

I now have 8.0 with TV remote working.

Trick was to give explicit amount of gpu_mem in config.txt
I had been commenting it out which I thought would default to 64 on RPi1
but seems like that is not enough.
So I put
gpu_mem=80
in config.txt along with the dtoverlay for kms plus adding the
v4l2-utils extension and the cec-ctl --playback in the Tweaks for
startup.

The cursor keys work - which is enough to do basic things in non-grid
skin.

Would be great if someone in pCP team can repeat this success.

I tried to repeat with 8.2 and it did not work ... HDMI via KMS working
fine ... but CEC commands not seen on the way in.

sudo cec-ctl --monitor
does not show the IR commands coming in.


Will try again with 8.1 to try to work out when the retrograde step
happened.

For a reason that ai have not yet worked out, I am not able to get kms
working with pCP 8.2 on my spare RPi 1.

However, try this on a pCP system that has kms + HDMI working:
Install extension v4l-utils 
Then put this in startup tweaks

cec-ctl —playback
(MinusMinus)
and reboot

You should get a multi-line console message when booting showing that it
found the CEC device

That might be enough for it to work (it is on latest Raspberry Pi OS).

If it does not work … try from command line:
sudo cec-ctl —monitor
and press a few keys on TV remote to see if anything gets printed on
terminal

Try adding some more criteria to the search - e.g. artist name starts
with "a" or year after 1999.
Make it very restrictive at first just to see if it works.
If it does then perhaps the size was the issue.

With a real playlist you would have to remember to add to it when new
tracks are added to your system.
With the Library View or Dynamic Playlists the data is updated
automatically when new tracks are added or old ones removed.

2022-11-11 Thread Paul Webster


pCP is not a full blown operating system like Raspberry Pi OS ... so
many things that you might think should be possible on a "regular" Linux
system are not straight-forward in pCP.
There is often a way to do it but at the expense of working out how the
installer works for the application that you want.

However, you can run Squeezelite on a regular Linux for Raspberry Pi.
So while you lose the ease of use that pCP brings, you gain the ability
to install and run pretty well anything that works on RPi.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Reading list in picoplayer ?

2022-11-11 Thread Paul Webster


I have not tried this ... but take a look at the Dynamic Playlist
plugin.
Another approach could be to use "Library Views".
First do the "Advanced Search" and then when that is providing the
tracks that you expected you can use save that as a Library View ... and
then you can select that view when you want to play some or all of those
tracks.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Picoreplayer: auto switching in now playing

2022-11-08 Thread Paul Webster


For SB Classic it is LMS that is (indirectly) driving the display so all
of the controllable elements are in the LMS menu.
For Radio (and Touch and Controller) it is the player (SqueezePlay/Jive)
that is driving the display based on a different set of stats that LMS
sends it.
So the configuration is via SqueezePlay and the applets that are
installed within it.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer on RPi Zero W - first time wifi settings

2022-11-05 Thread Paul Webster

Modern Windows Notepad can preserve line endings but I don’t think it
offers a “save as” choice.
So if you start from a fresh file in Windows Notepad then it has Windows
line endings.

However, if your RPi is getting a reachable IP address then it is
working.

If pcp.local is not working (and you have not personalised the host
name) then it implies, to me, that your Windows machine does not have
mDNS support.

For older versions of Windows, installing Apple iTunes is one way to get
it.
(not checked back to see which version of Windows you are running).

LMS will not create that directory.

If you can organise things so that the mount point etc on the new disk
is the same as the old drive (move the old drive to a different mount
point first) then you will not even need to rescan and all of the things
that refer to a file by location will still work (eg playlists and,

It is the very first question in their FAQ that you can get to from
https://www.radio.net/contact
However, I suspect it is not quick.
If you think back over the last year ... how many new stations have you
submitted to Radio Browser and how many of those are not in Radio.Net ?
Then pick one ... and see how long it takes to appear after you contact
them?

LMS does not really care what the date is.
The delay is probably pCP waiting for the time.

The file
/etc/init.d/settime.sh
has a delay and loop - and it waits for the year to be greater than or
equal to 2018 ... so you could force the date to be something like
1/1/2022 at the top of that script and it would probably work.

You could try using the browser developer tools to trace the network
activity to see if there is a request that takes a very long time to be
responded to etc etc.

On pCP 8 - the script that is being run is
/var/www/cgi-bin/lms.cgi

It does a bunch of things and then calls pcp_lms_status to see if LMS is
running.
You could put something in there to see if that is taking for ever.
Otherwise you could put some diagnostics in various places in lms.cgi to
see if you can work out where it is spending its time.

Just to be 100% clear ... is this discussion about the tab at the very
top of the pCP screen that has a tab for each pCP player plus the LMS
tab?
Not the pCP LMS settings page that is underneath the piCorePlayer
banner.

If yes (the tab at the top) then do you also find the LMS web interface
to be slow to load then you access it via your own new connection in
your browser by opening a new tab and requesting the LMS default web

SSH into the RPi and take a look at the LMS logs and also use "top" to
see if something is using all CPU.
LMS logs can be seen via /var/log/slimserver/server.log

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] PCP 8.1.0 on Pi Zero: fine on BBC Sounds, stutters on local files?

2022-03-22 Thread Paul Webster


The FLAC content will use a lot more bandwidth on your home network than
the BBC streams.
A well running WiFi network should not have a problem ... but perhaps
your PiZero has a poor connection.

I assume that your Pi4 systems are running with an Ethernet connection
to your network - if not then that would increase your WiFi traffic.

How about if you play a FLAC Internet radio source - for example one of
the Naim Radio flac streams?

That appears to be playing from Tidal.
Is that always the case when things stop working.

If LMS is still working (and is on the same machine) then it is clear
that "piCorePlayer" has not really crashed.

Can you connect to the system via SSH and see what is running (and
consuming most cpu and/or memory) or not running compared to usual

You have to mount the network drive from the Joggler (Linux box).
After it is mounted then you can configure LMS to access it.

Interactively, it is very easy ... but then you can see what it is
doing.

However, there are CLI commands to tell LMS to play a favourite.

from the docs

Code:


  Request: "6e:ef:54:e9:02:b0 favorites playlist play item_id:1.1"

Yes. Also some current models have 512MB - for example Raspberry Pi Zero
2W
https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/raspberry-pi.html#raspberry-pi-revision-codes
The models with less memory have, historically at least, had less
powerful processors as well.
So running LMS, Squeezelite on them does work but can be a bit slow -
especially if you have a very large library.
If you then try to run Jivelite on it as well then more memory is used
up - especially where video memory is stolen from main memory.

The general guidance has been to run LMS on a wired connection so that
can sometimes limit its location.
If it is in a cupboard under the stairs then it might not be a
convenient place for a player (although some run audio cables over a
long distance).

My approach has been to always have a player on the LMS system.

If you really want to block/accept access via MAC address then add both

Have you set Ethernet as static IP in pCP - not the router?
If you have then turn it off and see what happens.
Main/Beta/Static


If you have not set it there ... then the problem is that pCP is
remembering the old IP address to reach LMS ... which is not reachable
when the cable is removed.
I am sure that this has come up before but I don't remember the
solution.
Someone will though.

Or another way of saying it ...
MS is installed as a plugin on LMS (and it can be installed on pCP where
it is running LMS).
It presents a web interface so needs a web browser to access it.
pCP (today) does not have a web browser built in so to use MS on LMS on
pCP you need something with a web browser ... like a modern mobile
phone, tablet or computer with a desktop interface.

Jivelite is the same software that runs on a Squeezebox Touch. It is a
standalone application and not a web interface and does not provide a
web interface for other systems to access.
