Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer Documentation
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.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer Documentation
Mainly pCP 8.1.0 The problem I have is I have never had CEC work, and there are so many variables. Maybe my TV doesn't work properly, maybe the cable is sub standard?? And RPT have been playing around with HDMI since the release of the RPi4B, so each kernel version is probably different. I started with a RPi0W but have changed to a RPi1B (with USB wifi) to reduce one variable.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer Documentation
... 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.

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).

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer Documentation
Yeah, it probably needs a bit of a rewrite. Setup instructions are now completely wrong. Setup was rewritten for pCP7.0.0 with wifi now leveraging code from pCP GUI. I have a feeling "setup" is not used very often, nobody has commented on it for years. Thanks for bringing into focus.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer Documentation
Just in passing, IÂve found page https://docs.picoreplayer.org/how-to/setup_wifi_on_pcp_without_ethernet/ quite confusing. - The Âmaintained by PCP and Âmaintained by the user methods are contrasted in title, but differ only in the use of special characters in strings... ThatÂs not 2 methods, that is one, with the limitation that files with special characters canÂt be updated via the GUI. - Also I would rather spell Âmaintained by pCP as Âcan be updated via the web GUIÂ. - I assume the option to run Âsetup with a console and keyboard works most of the time. Otherwise donÂt document it. And in this case, I would make that the first method, on top of the page, as it is clearly easier than writing a config file. 2 SB 3 1 PCP 6 Libratone Loop, Zipp, Zipp Mini iPeng (iPhone + iPad) LMS 7.9 (linux) with plugins: CD Player, WaveInput, Triode's BBC iPlayer by bpa IRBlaster by Gwendesign (Felix) Smart Mix, Music Walk With Me, What Was That Tune? by Michael Herger PowerSave by Jason Holtzapple Song Info, Song Lyrics by Erland Isaksson AirPlay Bridge by philippe_44 WeatherTime by Martin Rehfeld Auto Dim Display, SaverSwitcher, ContextMenu by Peter Watkins. epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112996 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer Documentation
Thank you for adding information on SD cards for PiCore, that will be helpful for people deciding what to buy. I have been looking at the various settings and saw the Security button on the PiCore main page. It is using the default Id and password. I am curious, when is the id and password used? When I connect to PiCore from my internal LAN, it never asks for a user id and password. For cyber security best practices, I should probably change it from the default. However, I would like to know when that id and password is required. However, after the Solarwinds issue, I hope the various code elements used for updates are frequently checked for stuff that does not belong. I would not want my Pi to become a botnet for someone wanting to mine bitcoin or snooping for identity theft. Thanks for the wonderful software!

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer Documentation
A suggestion for simplifying some of the steps in documentation. Where the steps require creation of a single line file (like in the recent one to handle plugging in a USB audio device) you can make it into a one line for copy/paste rather than having to open and editor and having to write all of the commands to save/exit or even installation of nano. For example Step 2 in the recent set changes from: Code: Step 2 Type sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/10-DAC.rules and paste this string: SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ATTRS{idVendor}=="", ATTR{idProduct}=="", RUN+="/home/tc/DAC.sh" where and are what you found in the previous step. Press control o to save and control x to exit. to: Code: Copy this string: echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ATTRS{idVendor}=="", ATTR{idProduct}=="", RUN+="/home/tc/DAC.sh"' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/10-DAC.rules and replace and are what you found in the previous step then enter it into your ssh session. The single quote around the string is needed because of the double quotes in the expression.

Is not a problem because the script checks the status of squeezelite and if It Is already on, nothing will happen. The solution Is to remove the two attrib strings in udev rule (Idvendor and idproduct) and replace them with this: ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device" In this way the script Will run everytime each USB device Is plug-in (USB PEN drive, mouse USB, dac USB etc).

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer Documentation
With my limited knowledge of udev, I can't see a way to make a truly generic solution. In some of the udev.rules there is already some product specific code. The potential work to do USB properly is enormous! I think?? this problem only occurs if the RPi and DAC are powered independently. I have learnt/remembered that manually using squeezelite init.d script can create situations where the squeezelite process is running without the appropriate pid file and visa versa. This causes confusion during testing. I recall now why I included "force" option to brutally kill squeezelite. I have been doing my testing on a synced piCorePlayer. Its weird seeing the consequences of inserting a USB device in one piCorePlayer has on another piCorePlayer.

Perhaps it is useful enough to consider making a generic version for when people configure USB audio - and put it in standard pCP.

Working my way through nowhinjing's how-to. To resize the file system it says go to Main page > *Advanced Mode Operations*, this is now *Additional Functions* in the more recent UI. Why resize to a mere 1000MB? and a *Danger* "If you have a large library select Use 2000 MB or Whole SD card. *In my opinion* 2000MB should be the absolute minimum, I use the whole card if it's a 8 or 16 GB card.

As Redrum points out in his post above, if you don't enter anything in the Server Workgroup, when you click the "Set Shares" button you get a pop-up to tell you to "fill out this field", and cannot proceed unless you enter something. @nowhinjing makes no mention of a "Workgroup" anywhere in his how-to, so we can only assume that the need to enter anything in that field came with a pCP version change?

First, a thank you to Gary for posting this issue. (I am the one that posted the issue in another forum.) I am impressed on how quickly it was resolved. There is one other issue that needs some attention. It is the Server Workgroup field in the Samba set-up instructions. The instructions do not mention any entry is required, but when I went to set-up Samba, it would not let me save it until something was entered into the field. What should be entered into the field? I entered piworkgroup, but others used WORKGROUP. I am not sure what this field does. Thanks for creating piCorePlayer. I was concerned I may not be able to set it up properly as I know nothing about linux, but the instructions are very detailed, except for that Server Workgroup field. This is going to help manage my music library. A donation will be forthcoming very soon. thank you again!
