Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Store files permanently on piCorePlayer

2019-06-27 Thread Grumpy Bob


I've dipped in and out of this thread over the months (!), and I wonder
if the LMS setup that I travel with might be another solution. Following
a post from several years ago, I set up LMS on a WiFi enabled Western
Digital 2Tb hard drive. This has two WiFi cards, so it sets its own
network up and can connect to an external network too. It has a battery,
so it will run for a short period off the mains. I keep a copy of my
music collection on this drive.

With this, I can run any player (or a number of players) - a tablet or
phone with appropriate software, or a Squeezebox, or a raspberry Pi
based device (I use piCorePlayer).  At work I use a model 3 Pi winerally
play through a tablet and headphones.

I use a dedicated charger, and some switching relays.   And separate
buck converter.I’m also only powering an old model A with usb WiFi.

That all in one board is nice, but it made me nervous when it smoked.  
They replaced it under warranty, but kinda blamed me for shorting
it.which I’m pretty sure I didn’t do.

Ok, thanks.

I’m doing a charge and battery endurance test now, and I don’t have a
case yet.

Is there another UPS controller that you know of that will run on wall
power when plugged in, charge the battery and then run off battery
power?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Store files permanently on piCorePlayer

2019-06-27 Thread AirFiero

I took a break from the software and operating system stuff to work on
the custom hardware needed to go inside this “beast”, as one guy
described. I had to learn to solder very small stuff including board
soldering. After watching several YouTube videos, I tried my had at it
today. I was surprised that it wasn’t as difficult as I feared. 

I was able to get all the way to doing a “plugs out test”, running the
PiPod with a test data cable for touch screen control and internal power
with an Adafruit power controller and LiPo battery. It worked, on the
battery, played music and no low power indications! Woot. :D

Pi/piCorePlayer running in AP mode worked flawlessly for me I used it in
the car for some months, but it became a bit of a faff, I now use a
phone with a large micro SDcard in car.

I also used it a couple of times in a holiday home with no
router/network. Again it worked absolutely without problem. Picture
below shows setup for indoors, it doesn't actually need a battery when
there's mains available. I used to take my Boom as it's compact and
fairly decent sound quality, although the Pi has HiFiBerry DAC HAT, so
can be fed into a decent HiFi system.

Go for it!

My reading of it is that pCP with built-in AP mode makes it easier.
One of the posts says that LMS (on the pCP machine) works when device is
in AP mode.
So ... install LMS on the same pCP system (using the pCP menu to do it)
and then point LMS to the locally stored music files.

Ah, so technically, it *can't* operate as a standalone player like an
iPod. That's a very important piece of information. And I'm assuming
there's no workaround? No scripting or module that could be plugged in?

Assuming there is no workaround, I do have a possible solution. Can the
"network" be emulated by a phone or iPad using wifi tethering or NFC? I
could then control the player from the phone or other device, leaving
the Pi to do it's one and only job - play music. This would also solve
the issue with the small 4.3 inch screen being a bit of a bear use with
a finger on the relatively small controls on the touch screen.

It absolutely needs to run LMS to play music stored locally.   The
device must also be connected to a network, or at a minimum running AP
mode, so that you can connect to it to control it.

The beast you've given birth to needs to be connected to a wireless
network to play music files stored on your Pi.

Once it's connected to a network, you need to bring up the piCorePlayer
web gui on a PC, laptop, tablet, phone, whatever, and start LMS.

Once LMS has started, the player part of your beast (squeezelite) should
automatically connect to LMS. You then need to open a web browser on a
PC, laptop, tablet, phone, whatever, and type in the
"IPaddressofyourPi:9000" to bring up the LMS webgui, to control your
player (squeezelite).

New issue...

I tried my picoreplayer in my shop, which isn't able to connect to LMS.
I don't want the player to use LMS all the time to access music on the
network. I need it to be able to read the files on the ext4 partition
when being used as a standalone player. Without being connected to the
laptop, the player couldn't find any of the music. I booted it up in the
house, with the laptop on and the squeezelite browser configuration page
up. I turned off the LMS autostart, and rebooted the pi. It shows the
picoreplayer library, but it seems to think it's an LMS remote library
and doesn't show any music that's loaded on the ext4 partition.

How do I get pcp to look at the files on the pi without the pi connected
to the network?

Holy smoke. I loaded more music on the Pi, have been listening while
working, and the sound quality is very impressive. The sound seems to
have more detail and depth than an iPod, even using FLAC on the Pi
versus WAV on the iPod. This is the result I’d hoped for. Great work, Pi
people, DAC people and PiCore player people!

I have a notebook where I'm writing a lot of stuff down. I was planning
to copy and paste the important stuff from here to keep offline.

I was planning to post progress on the rest of the project. I have a lot
to do on the hardware side to miniaturize all the cabling to make the
player as small as possible. Would you like me to post here, or start a
"build thread" somewhere?

And thanks again. :cool:

Just in case your card crashes, and you have to start from scratch.

There's music playing on my PiCorePod from the SD card! Ye!

The sound is really good, too. 

Thanks again, folks. Seriously, I owe Jeff a debt of thanks. Paul and
crew, for you folks would a paypal donation to picoreplayer do? Or do

OK and be carefull what you share in screenshots !!

Nothing too bad on these but..

Apparently in Windows 10 there a "snip tool" or theres a free program
called greenshot which I and others on here use.

Greenshot allows you to "Window" a screenshot not sure about snip tool

This is a permissions problem as SaMBa has allowed you into the

what do you have set here ?

27423

And how about screenshots rather than photos ?, they're easier to read

Do you know how to use ssh (Secure shell) or do you have a monitor and
keyboard connected ?

I need to see the results for this command with /mnt/storage replaced
with your mountpoint

You cant access a SMB share with an internet browser !!!

Explorer not internet explorer !!!

lost and found will be in the partition you're sharing.

Try right clicking IN EXPLORER not internet explorer !!! and click new

But the pi doesn't want to give access even after entering credentials,
as shown above. Is there another step for accessing the 3rd partition?

I'm not sure, but I think you need to type in the password and "set
password".

That worked, but it's asking for my "network credentials" (I assume it's

That is helpful, but I need to know what interface I use to actually
copy the files onto the 3rd partition on the Pi SD Card (which has

If you wish to play music files that are stored on your Pi (when you
eventually get them there), then LMS will need to be running on the Pi.
You would enter the path to the music files at LMS > Settings > Basic
Settings, and let LMS scan your music folder.
You would then need to switch your player(s) to the LMS instance running

For testing sound, I using music on the laptop until I can learn how to
transfer some files to the Pi. Two questions about shared
music/libraries over the network...

1. pcp only seems to be seeing mp3 files, not FLAC or WAV files

2. If I update files or change/add shared music, do I need to reboot the
pi or is there another way to refresh the library that the pi sees over

I thought I had already done that. Maybe it got lost in the process. I
re-did it, and now...*I have sound!* Thanks, Jeff and Paul. :cool:

I'm not clear on how to use Samba for copying the files to the 3rd

2019-05-23 Thread AirFiero


Looking through the config.txt, this is what is currently in the file:

# onboard audio overlay
dtparam=audio=on
audio_pwm_mode=2

These are the instructions from iquaudio:

To ensure that the IQAUDIO Device drivers are loaded make sure
/boot/config.txt file has the valid
entry below.
a. For Pi-DAC+, Pi-DACZero, Pi-DAC Pro and Pi-DigiAMP+ use the
iqaudio-dacplus
b. For Pi-Digi+, use iqaudio-digi-wm8804-audio
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo nano /boot/config.txt
DTOVERLAY=IQAUDIO-DACPLUS
or
dtoverlay=iqaudio-digi-wm8804-audio

So the question is, do I *add* this line...
dtoverlay=iqaudio-dacplus

Or replace on of these lines with the above?
dtparam=audio=on
audio_pwm_mode=2

The guy at iquaudio put together a special order for me. It's a Pi Zero
with DAC and headphone amp board all presoldered. So unless there's been
a hardware failure, I'm thinking some kind of configuration issue
between picoreplayer op system and the DAC?

Sorry.

I got file sharing partly set up (some files shared, others not showing
up) from laptop to pi. The file played on the pi, I had headphones
connected to the pi but there was no sound. I'm wondering if there's
something that needs to be set in configuration to use the DAC hat and
headphone amp daughter board?

Hardware is:
Pi Zero
iquaudio DAC

2019-05-22 Thread AirFiero

I got some files working on the Pi Zero, playing from the laptop. But
there was no sound. In the “change Squeezelite settings” I tried
changing the “output setting” from ALSA to “hw:CARD=DAC”, because I’m
using a DAC hat. I saved and rebooted, now it says Squeezelite isn’t
running and the pi zero can’t see the music files on the laptop.

So the questions are whether I need to set up the DAC card in the
configuration somewhere, and what happened to Squeezelite?

Also, I don’t know how to copy files to the Pi Zero.

OK, that's what I was referring to as 'the former' - it's quite doable. 
The Pi Zero won't make for the snappiest server, but it's quite usable. 
With LMS running on the Pi zero you won't need it running on your laptop
as well.

Regarding the Samba share that isn't working yet, it's all there in
Jeff's detailed post - just make sure you didn't miss a step.

For encouragement, I have a Pi 3A+ doing more or less what you're aiming
for.  I don't have an attached screen, but the LMS and (a couple of)
Squeezelite player(s) run on the 3A+ (one for the 3.5mm jack, and one
for a bluetooth speaker).  I also have the 3A+ set up as an access point
(using the options in pCP), so that other players (e.g. Boom, Radio) can
be served by its LMS (and then I also have Philippe's AirPlay bridge). 
Music is on a third partition of the MicroSD card, and it's all
controlled via the web interface on my laptop or via iPeng on my phone.

It looks like I missed a step, because when I click to start Samba it
says “Samba but not configured.exiting”

Do I need to install Samba on my laptop?

So a stand-alone player needs only to run Squeezelite.  LMS can run on
another device on your network, such as your laptop.  And in this
scenario, there's no need for the music files to be located on the
Raspberry Pi - they simply need to be on a device that LMS on your
laptop can see.  Such a setup will only work when the RPi is connected
to your home network - you won't be able to take this device outside
your house, as you could with an iPod, because it won't be able to see
LMS.

That's what I was referring to as 'the latter', but I'm still not
convinced that that's what you're aiming for.  If you want a device that
works outside your home network it'll need to run LMS on the RPi, and
then the music files will indeed need to be stored on a device that's
plugged into the RPi.

Agreed - a very detailed response, above and beyond.

Note that one of the early steps is to install LMS, so this assumes that
you want to create a stand-alone server+player, i.e. a device that can
operate independently of your home network.

The latter is correct, I'm trying to build a standalone player. Think a
"PiCorePod", like an iPod, but with newer and more up to date DAC
hardware, audio codecs, capabilities, storage space and possible
customization. I'm attempting to build it on a Pi Zero with the Iqaudio
DAC hat and headphone amp daughter board. The display is the Waveshare
4.3 inch touchscreen. It would be powered by the Adafruit power module
with a 2500 mAh LiPo battery as a UPS, which can run on battery or line
in and the battery gets automatically charged when plugged into wall
power.

I like picoreplayer because it is very slim, boots quickly and will do
only what I need, and that's to be a music player.

I got a 512gb SD Micro card from B Photo and Video for $96. I think
they still have them at that price. The size seems to check out in
Windows (so it's not likely a fake).

I'm reading through Jeff's *amazingly* detailed instructions (THANKS,

Yeah, I've been following this thread with interest - in fact it's what
inspired me to get a bigger MicroSD card and make a third partition for
my music for my camper van Squeezebox system.

But what I'm not clear on is whether AirFiero wants a totally
stand-alone system, or one that's only intended to work within a network
that already has LMS running.  If the former, then obviously LMS has to
run from the Zero, if the latter then pCP only needs to run as a player.
But you knew that - just spelling it out for clarity.

I think this might indicate a misunderstanding.  piCorePlayer on the
Zero is capable of running its own installation of LMS, so you don't
need to run LMS on your laptop.  By 'Squeeze Audio Device' I believe you
mean the web interface to pCP.  All mentions of LMS in that interface
refer to the local installation of LMS, i.e. running on the Zero.  It
will never see the copy of LMS running on your laptop.  However, pCP can
also run Squeezelite as a player, which can be seen by your laptop's
installation of LMS.

So I'm not sure what your aim is, but you have a couple of options:

1) Leave LMS running on your laptop, and just use pCP as a 'player',
which will be seen by LMS on your laptop, and can be controlled through
the LMS web interface.  Music for this option does not need to be
connected to the Zero - it can be on a device connected to your laptop.

2) Forget about your laptop, and install LMS on the Zero through pCP. 
The player (Squeezelite) and the server (LMS) will then be on the same
device.  This works, but LMS is not as 'snappy' as when running on a
faster RPi, such as a 3B+.  In this setup it makes sense to have your
music on a device connected to the Zero.  I now have a 3A+ doing exactly
this (the 3A+ is just as snappy as the 3B+), and I have a compressed
copy of my music on a third partition on the MicroSD card.

You might have missed the earlier hardware issues. I'm using a pi zero
with a Waveshare 4.3in touchscreen monitor. The monitor uses the USB
port for touchscreen data (video is HDMI). If I plug in a usb reader, I
lose touch screen control. If I have to plug in a USB hub, the touch
screen data doesn't respond, and the player becomes too big to be
portable. Also, there are power issues making it not portable.

I can do these tests on my Pi 3B+, and I have some applications I'd like
to do like a home music player that connects to a NAS and a car stereo
head unit, but those projects aren't ready yet. Besides, I really want
to test the *Pi Zero hardware*. I want to see how the hardware including
the DAC plays sound. I can't do that until I resolve the storage issue.

I'll set the whole thing up again, and run through everything.

I've had it up and running on the Pi Zero before, but there was no music
to test it with because of the storage issue, and wifi wasn't working.
That's what brought us to this point, troubleshooting the wifi. Now I
want to see if this player will play music *internally* (not streamed
for from an external source), that the hardware all works, and how the
sound quality is.

Folks...could we *please try* to make this work?? If we try and it
doesn’t work, so be it. But I’ve put a lot of time and money into trying
to make a small, portable and more technically up to date music player.

Thank you for the write up.

I tried Volumio. It works great on a Pi 3B+, but is VERY slow and the
GUI is messed up on the Pi Zero. Even LibreELEC ran better on the Zero.
PiCore runs the best.

I really need to figure out a way to use Picoreplayer on the Pi Zero. I
have other music applications that would be fine with a pi 3 and other
software, or PiCoreplayer and usb storage.

As a minimum a Squeezebox system consists of 3 parts

1 The LMS server
This take music from a source (HDD, NAS or some other storage) and
streams it to an "endpoint" or Player

2 The Player
This can be a Squeezebox 'hardware' device or a software player
'squeezelite' being one.

3 A controller
This can be a webpage provided by the LMS server a smartphone or
software 'Jivelite' being one.

> How does LMS help with this being a portable music player, like an iPod?

piCorePlayer is a linux 'distro' that implements one any or all of the
above systems (and does all and any very well) and CAN do what you wish
however running all from an SD card as music storage is more complex and
not recommended.

I suggest for what you are trying to do its not the best way to go, try
looking at other systems like "Volumio" which will run on RPi and should
do what you want with less complexity

Understood, but this particular project needs to use the SD card. I am
trying to build a small, portable music player like an iPod. If I have
to use a USB stick, it takes up a lot of space and I lose the
touchscreen connection. If I have to add a usb hub, I lose the small
size of the player. If I can’t make it work on the SD card, this project
is a bust.

2019-05-18 Thread AirFiero


Success!

27365

The next steps to getting this to be a portable music player. Advice
badly needed...

1. Create a partition on the SD card for storing music

2. How to give permission to copy files from a Windows computer using a
telnet or other program (there was one mentioned earlier in the thread
that I installed) to transfer the files.

3. How to mount the partition so picoreplayer can use the music files

4. If there's a way to do the mounting and configuration automatically
through scripting or a config file so that picoreplayer always sees the
music folders.
