Re: [slim] In love with SqueezeLite and LMS. Frustrated at the same time.
Hi, I do what you want to all the time on different usb dacs, for example questyle cma400, cma twelve and Steinberg Dac. I alway turn off the dac and when I turn it on, I'm able to play music. Have you tried the -C 1 option on squeezelite. Maybe there is something special about your dac or your insralltion of pcp. Generally it works, at least for me. What type of dac is it? Regarding spotify I have no ideas since I use quobuz. This works like a charm with the lms-connect app for the 3rd-party-sotware area in this forum.

Re: [slim] Single speaker for kitchen - advice needed
Hi, Maybe you want to take a look at the Nubert NuPro100. Unfortunately the nubert.de Website is only available in german. They are small active speakers with all necessary Inputs (spdif, toslink, USB and analog) and it is possible to use them stereo or single. I own a paar of nuvero 60 and the are really great.

Re: [slim] Is Bluetooth streaming to Squeezebox possible?
Hi, as far as I understand, he wants to do both: 1: Stream any Music from Mobile to LMS 2: Stream to Bluetotth Speakers frmo LMS Server Possible Solutions: 1: Use BubbleUPNP to Stream from Mobile to LMS 2: Install squezzelite and use the however connected Bluetooth Speakers as output.

Re: [slim] Is Bluetooth streaming to Squeezebox possible?
Hi Castalla, I have not tried it, but for example on a Cubietruck, where is the problem? Connect the speakers via bluetooth, ok you have to do it by hand, but it should be possible. Then connect the output of squeezelite to the analog output device and it should work, as far as I can think. I don't quite understand the use of it. If you use a small device like raspi or cubie, you can put it close to the speakers and you will have a way better sound using a decent cable.

Ok, you have done it, so I am sure you are right. And I agree completely, I don't think it's worth either.

Re: [slim] what to use to run squeeze
Hi, You don't need much cpu power to run LMS. Especially not if you use flac, since flac is natively supported by all squeezeboxes. If you use not natively supported file formats, you need cpupower for transcoding of lms. Also if you play resolutions that are not supported, for example 24/96 on a boom or radio, you need cpu power for resampling. Since I use only flacs and don't play highres to not natively supported devices, the cubie is great. I have a larger server with an intel celeron which has enough power for all the transcoding stuff, but it is not in use as a squeezserver. On the cubie, a full scan of about 21000 files takes about 1/2 hour. If you want it faster, you need more power. A NAS is only useful, if you need the diskspace.

Re: [slim] ReadyNAS and FLAC 96kHz
Hi Usually lms comes with flac already compiled on linux platforms. Somtimes there maybe a problem with the linkerloader so running flac from the commandline gives a simple file not found as a response. To find out if this is the case, ssh onto your readynas cd towhereverlmsisinstalled/bin and type ./flac.

Re: [slim] Squeezebox 2015 - Is the Squeezebox Universe Expanding of Shrinking?
ctbarker32 wrote: I am also discouraged that pretty much all of the proprietary music server systems seem to use DLNA type technology that we all know doesn't hold a candle to the performance and features of LMS. This, despite many of these systems being no more than customized Linux computers. Is there any reason other manufacturers cannot implement LMS/Squeezebox support into their own products the way open source applications already do? Every time I see a new proprietary music server solution (usually at a high cost) I feel it is always reinventing the wheel and solving problems that have already been solved by LMS? Hi, I guess there is a simple reason: You can't earn money with it. Look at the SOtM sMS-100 . It is priced as high as 499 here in Germany and nothing more than a raspie with pi-coreplayer you can buy for 60. If you take a cubie +2 tb Disk, you pay about 200 and have a complete server player system with more diskspace than you probably ever need for music. How should a commercial company compete with prices like this? I don`t think people will pay that much just for a fancy case and the installation service. What we can do to expand is spread it all over!! My Girlfriend now has a raspie as player, a cubie as server and player and a SB-Radio. She loves it and has no problems using it. I wrote an article in a german tube forum and may people got a cubie after this. So if we all spread the potential of the squeeze universe, we will be on the expanding side.

[slim] acess flacstream via adress:portnr/?
Hi, is it possible to acess the native flac stream via a similar adress? I know it is possible for mp3 streams via server : portnr/stream.mp3, but this stream is empty when playing different file types like flac without recoding. I dont want to use recoding, since it is a loss in quality. Thanks for your answers.

Re: [slim] acess flacstream via adress:portnr/?
A friend of mine is trying to write a softwareplayer for the Dreambox satelite receiver. At the Moment he uses the mp3 stream via url. I am trying to find a way to make him play flac and other formats too. The dreambox is a Linux/Enigma2 device and it can play most file formats out of the box via gstreamer. I am trying to find a way to acess this native streams from the SB Server.
