Is there a way of seeing what the CPU load is at any given point within PCP.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] BETA: piCorePlayer6.0.0 - PI4 support
Hi I use max2play for the LMS part of my network and it has always worked well . I have always struggled to picoreplayer to work as my LMS my issue I find it hard to get my USB HD mounted so that LMS can find the music files . I know that this is just my issue and it could be easily solved so please this is not any slight on your software just me being a technical idiot. SoMax2play issued a Beta download for Pi 4 which I used as soon as it was available and have been running it ever since . The LMS runs really well and happy , but I found issues with using max2play as the player software. Player would be found and work initially then they would dissapear as a player from LMS . Tried a few clean installs but the same issue kept happening . This was both for a JustBoom Digi on an Rpi3 + and an Rpi 4 2GB with HiFiberry Digi Pro . In the end as i just wanted to listen to music decided to instead load picoreplayer 5.1 for the JustBoom and 6.0 Beta for the Pi4 . Both loaded easily using balena etcher (thanks Ronnie for this tip much easier) and then it was just the case of setup the usual changing names for easy identification , choosing the Digi cards etc . Just to let you know in both cases this worked perfectly and both units are instantly listed by LMS and play without a hitch . Sound is also very stable and solid which is better now I am using RPi 4GB as the LMS server contros for all things are much smoother and quicker at in my view the same levels as very expensive stand alone streamers for a fraction of the money . So I think this is how I will continue going forward Max2play for LMS and picore for the players . Thank you for your work and effort to make this software available and to keep it working .

Although I have to say, I just tested this and saw an error message that the mount failed to setup a loop device. I thought this was fixed in the new mount but obviously not. add max_loop=100 to the command line for now, that will make the kernel create all of the loop devices at boot time, rather than dynamically.

I connected a recent backup to the Pi now - it's a 4TB WD red (7200rpm) drive that contains about 130,000 FLAC files. Complete, initial scan took just over 1hr - I could have saved 5 mins by pointing to an empty "Playlists" folder instead of using the main FLACs folder (i.e. it rescanned the whole library looking for playlists - when I don't have any!) Performance from the Pi is still really snappy. With just LMS installed, no extras etc, PCP looks like it's using about 560MB of the 2GB partition I created for it.

Not quite sure what's happened here, but any help welcomed. Got piCorePlayer up and running on my RPi4, installed LMS and created a mount to an external USB disk Went into LMS and got it to do a scan It found c350 folder, but no MP3s Tried various different things (reboots etc) and then PCP started saying something about the mount point had changed? Anyway, the external HDD is now totallt borked - can't mount it in Windows etc - constant "device not ready" or the disk format is RAW, can't do anything with Windows Disk Manager etc. Windows Disk Manager sees the disk (i.e. it's "Disk 1" and it's "not initialised") when I try to initialise it, once again I just get "The device is not ready" again. Looks totally screwed. Any thoughts on a) what might have happened, and b) if there's anything I can do to recover the disk?

First impressions: Running LMS and Squeezelite seem to provide only a very light load to the 4B. CPU temperature seems to be dominated by the ambient temperature and limited airflow inside my amplifier enclosure. So with the amplifier powered up and playing music from Squeezelite, the CPU sits in the mid- to high-60s. I can easily get it into the low 70s by doing something more demanding, like transcoding a FLAC album with oggenc, but for the majority of the time when it's just being a server and a player the temperature seems under control. I realise this is not an ideal environment for a device that may be marginal on heat, and I may end up swapping the 3B+ back in, but the extra responsiveness of the server, quicker library scans, and even the faster reboots are all nice to have. I suppose I don't really need the server to be running on this device, so I could even put an older Pi in there and just run Squeezelite on it, and run LMS on the 4B externally, but my target was always to have an all-in-one integrated amp. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110727 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] BETA: piCorePlayer6.0.0 - PI4 support
A heads-up for anyone who uses a push button to toggle their pCP on and off: there's another new feature in the RPi 4B. The halt command apparently puts the device into a very low power state, from which it can no longer be woken by grounding GPIO3. One of my front panel buttons is dedicated to doing a safe shutdown (using the pCP shutdown overlay), and I had used GPIO3 for this specifically so that the same button could be used to wake the device. There is a way to reinstate this behaviour though. 'This post' (https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=63=244165#p1495167) on the Raspberry Pi forum details how to tweak the on-board bootloader. The downside apparently is that after this tweak the 4B will draw more power once halted than the 3B does, but in my case I felt that the benefit of being able to toggle the 4B on and off with the same button outweighed this extra current draw, since my 4B will rarely be halted like this. So I went ahead and applied the tweak, and now the old behaviour is working again. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110727 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

drop the verbose output on the command line, unless you are specifcially debugging. Just put the line into a file. Make sure you set the executable flag (chmod 755 name-of-scriptfile)User commands get ran as root, so no need to use sudo. It's also good practice to put the required interpreter as the first line of the script file #!/bin/sh /home/tc/spbd-script piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] BETA: piCorePlayer6.0.0 - PI4 support
I've now configured the 4B to replicate my 3B+, ready to switch it over into my amplifier enclosure. I have 9 buttons, each with a short and long press, so I have quite a long string to define all the button commands in sbpd: Code: sbpd -v -d -f /home/tc/sbpd_commands.cfg b,27,POWR,2,0,RSRT,2000 b,23,PREV,2,0,PLAY,500 b,22,MIX-,2,0,MUTE,500 b,24,PAUS,2,0,STOP,500 b,25,MIX+,2,0,VMAX,500 b,12,NEXT,2,0 b,19,PRE1,2,0,PRE4,500 b,13,PRE2,2,0,PRE5,500 b,16,PRE3,2,0,PRE6,500 This turns out to be close to the maximum length of string (255) that can be accommodated in the User Commands section of pCP. So it doesn't allow me enough characters to define the player's MAC address for instance (which I'd like to do to guarantee that the buttons on the front of the amplifier only affect the player connected to the amplifier's DAC). I've tried to get around this by putting the sbpd command string into a script file and then executing that script file from the user commands section, but I haven't been able to get that to work. I'd like it to run as a daemon, exactly as the above code, but I found I needed to add an ampersand to the end of the command in the script file (otherwise pCP/LMS ran very slowly), and even after doing that the buttons did not seem to work, even with a 'sudo' before the command. The command configuration seemed to be set up correctly according to the on-screen messages, but the buttons didn't work. So two questions. 1) How can I put that string into a script file? Or, 2) Is there any chance that the limit of 255 characters could be raised a bit? I guess that's coming from the pCP interface, but is there any limit to the length of the sbpd parameter string? chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110727 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Thanks Matt - just spotted this. I haven't had the 4B in full-time service for the last couple of days, so don't have any new experience of the temperature behaviour, but now that my buttons are working again I'll get this 4B installed in my amplifier enclosure and get some experience with it over the weekend. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110727 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

I updated to your version 2.53, and the basic checks with the gpio command worked ok. Code: gpio -g mode 24 in gpio -g mode 24 up ...sets the value to 1 Code: gpio -g mode 24 down ...sets it to 0 With it set to 'up', shorting pin 24 to GND via an attached button changed the value to 0. So then I tried my sbpd command string and my button PCB, and it all seems to work correctly as it used to on the 3B+, i.e. the intended functions are being triggered with each short or long press. So thank you Paul, that seems to have fixed it. For some reason I can't now get LMS to start on this device, so haven't been able to test the final step, i.e. that the commands do what's configured.

Generally it ramps up the speed quickly but the CPU has to be busy enough to have no idle states between clock interrupts for the clock speed to step up. Essentially though, if the cpu remains 100% busy and you are not sustaining maximum clock speed then it's likely that the firmware has stepped in to keep the temp down. -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.

I would have warned you about it. Look at the source code, he makes comments in the source about being inundated with emails. I have found the required memory offset information, I have the output side working, I was having problems with the input side.

I emailed Gordon. He confirmed that the resistor control stuff hasn't been updated in wiringPi yet, but it's in the pipeline. Poor fella seems rather jaded about some hostile reactions to this. I guess some people don't appreciate what it takes to support such a widely used, and free, product. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110727 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] BETA: piCorePlayer6.0.0 - PI4 support
There's a clue on the Raspberry Pi forum 'here' (https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=32=244162=1489057=wiringpi#p1489057). The way the resistors work has changed apparently. The linked forum thread suggests that wiringpi has been updated to suit, so either that's not completely correct or I'm missing something. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110727 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] BETA: piCorePlayer6.0.0 - PI4 support
I did a few more tests with wiringpi. From my perspective everything points to there being a problem with the current version (2.52) on an RPi 4B. What I've done: 1) I tried my fully configured pCP6.0.0 beta1 SD card in a 3B+ (configured with LMS, Squeezelite etc, plus Paul's repackaged wiringpi version 2.52). Setting the pull-up or pull-down resistor on an input pin will result in the pin taking a value of '1' or '0' respectively. This is as it should be I believe. 2) With the same SD card in a 4GB 4B, setting the resistors has no effect on the pin value. 3) I also tried it in a 1GB 4B - same result, i.e. the pin value does not change in response to setting the resistor. 4) I then tried a Raspbian Buster Lite image, and updated the wiringpi package to 2.52 using Gordon's instructions 'here' (http://wiringpi.com/wiringpi-updated-to-2-52-for-the-raspberry-pi-4b/). Same result on the 1G 4B - setting the resistor has no effect on the pin value. So the wiringpi version in pCP seems to be behaving the same way as it does in Raspbian, which is to say that I cannot setup an input pin so that shorting it to GND will change its value. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110727 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] BETA: piCorePlayer6.0.0 - PI4 support
Just to advise I have now experienced NFS mount issues - not many but enough to indicate that there may be an issue that needs addressing. My Pi4 is wired. My NAS is also wired (obviously). I am using a standard NFS mount - no vers= declared as default is working. The NAS is mounted by a number of other network devices with zero issue. On some Pi4 reboots the mounts fails on others (most) it is fine I think the Pi4 is trying to mount before the network is fully up. While testing the Pi4 is DHCP but of course as an LMS server I would reserve or make static so it could be the DHCP server (my Draytek router) taking too long to issue an IP. Perhaps the boot sequence needs to be altered or more checks put in place before the mount command is run?
