Re: [slim] RadioStream stopps after 20sec. playing and never resumes
I suspect your problem is related to your wifi setup and your new controller problem is just another manifestation. I need to rerview the past post and draw your network as I see it and then propose a few tests to check whether the network is working as you think it is is. DHCP assign IP address - the problem we are considering is at MAC level and how a Wifi device connects to a access point (2 AP in your network the DDWRTs) - a level below DHCP as there can be one DHCP server for many APs. DHCP comes into play only after a Wfi devices has successfully connected to an AP. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106693 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

We "knew" that all your stuff should be in that room called ssid. But we want to know - in which entrace that one device had entered your room. To make this post short: Grab yourself some powerlan devices like TP-Link TL-PA4010PKIT AV500 Powerline Netzwerkadapter and put one into your ISP Router and the other to your Host Bridge (main wlan router) and move these two devices in the neighbourhood of your living room. If you buy them online you can send them back - if its not working - but believe me - its working far better than your actual setup. btw: its always a wise idea to use static ip addresses for static devices. you should limit the dhcp range from eg. 101 to 254 and use static ips for all your non mobile stuff below 100 and leave the rest of the range for your tablets, smartphones whatever.

DHCP is only activated at the Host-Router from the Client-Bridge-Configuration. Hence, all Squeezeboxes are connected with the Host-Router. The Host-Router dd-wrt-WebGui also confirms this and lists all Squeezeboxes. Yesterday evening I spread all Squeezeboxes around in my appartment: Living room SB: this squeezebox had no issues so far; Sleeping room SB: this one also had no issues so far; <- I also set an alarm in the morning to wake me up with a webradio stream Work room SB: this is the SB which cause over the last days all this trouble. This happend this morning: The SB in the Sleeping room waked me up as intended. Good! :D Two hours later I wanted to use the Controler. But it always showed me "Trying to connect to ". The source is the Logitech Media Server on my Raspberry Pi. It did not connect. Bad. :( After that I used on from my desktop the WebGUI to turn on the Work Room SB (the one which always sopped playing). It stream nice and need. Very Good! :D :D I also checked the /var/log: [16-12-28 09:09:34.4670] Slim::Networking::IO::Select::__ANON__ (147) Error: Select task failed calling Slim::Web::HTTP::processHTTP: illegal file descriptor or filehandle (either no attached file descriptor or illegal value): at /usr/share/perl5/Slim/Networking/IO/Select.pm line 150. ; fh=Slim::Web::HTTP::ClientConn=GLOB(0x5476588) [16-12-28 09:17:49.0370] Slim::Networking::SqueezeNetwork::Players::_players_error (334) Unable to get players from SN: Connect timed out: Transport endpoint is not connected, retrying in 86400 seconds Bottom line: That the Controler failed is something I live with at the moment; That the former trouble-making Working Room SB is now streaming without problems is great. Well it still has some "hickups", but they are acceptable. Hickup means: from time to time it stops playing but resumes in a reasonable time If the others are also working fine, I still have to check. Of course, it would be good to understand the /var/log messages above in order to keep improving the whole set-up.

Generally with networking - simple is best. Minimise hops that data takes and avoid multiple wifi LANs especially one with same ssid. Every complexity adds an opportunity for a problem so each possibility has to be considered and eliminated. Can you get each ddwrt to display which receivers are actually "connected" to it.

Let me go into your point one by one: How is your ISP-Router connected: The router itself is connected with the modem. That modem is provided by the ISP. The cable between the modem and the router is an ethernet-cable. The modem is connected to the ISP-socket in the wall. This is a coax cable. I have no glue what you mean by two line telephone, since to that modem also the phone is connected (fyi: I live in Germany, perhaps it differs from country to country). I would move the ISP routr to your desktop router: Well then I would not need the desktop router at all. The idea of this client-bridge mode is to avoid having a cable running all across the appartment. Or buy some lan over power device: Well, before I don't know the root-cause I don't want to invest "blindly" ... I mean everything besides the Squeezebox-Receivers works. One more strange thing: I just syncronzed all three Receivers and was able to stream/listen almost for 1 hour without problems (it only stopped once for perhaps 20sec. but resumed).

I don't know what xilinx is, but I pressed the button on the Squeezebox-Receiver for approx. 10sec. At least the button was blinking fast red. What is Net:UDAP? I have the Logitech Remote Controler. I believe to have inputted (a long time ago) the Wlan settings. At least, this handheld Logitech Controler found the player and after selecting it, I could see that the Receiver got connected to the Wlan and then it was also visiable in the Logitech Media Server. I'm still testing the 1st/problematic receiver. To summarize the current situation - This 1st problematic receiver has just seen a factory reset. But with the help of the Remote Controler it seemed to have received the Wlan setting and logged into the Wlan and is visiable in the Logitech Media Server; - A 2nd receiver without any issues is in the same room as the 1st/problematic receiver - Both receivers have the same settings (selected via the WebGui) - When a webstream is in the playlist of the 2nd receiver and I press play, the stream starts with 2sec. and never stops; - When I put the same webstream in the playlist of the 1st/problematic receiver, it takes much longer until the stream starts. And in 95% of the cases, it stops within approx. 10sec. Sometime it resumes playing but only after a very long waiting period of perhaps >1min. But then it plays only for a few seconds before it stopped again. Totally different to the 2nd receiver.

What I forgot: after a reset, the Receiver also looses the Wlan-settings and it needs to be connected with the controller first. So, the red blinking button was reasonable. However, after the reset this problematic Squeezebox-Receiver was streaming without any issues for over 3min. (what an improvement). But then it stopped again without resuming.

Streaming music from harddrive (all audio of file is immeidately available) comes across in a single http GET which means you'll get a burst of data at the max speed speed of the connection - so music file will be sent to player in one continuous burst if possible. If the file is a typical 3-4 min MP3 then player will be able to buffer whole file before it starts playing. Single TCP/IP connection is used but it is closed when data is all sent so next file will use a new connection. Streaming radio has data but not all data is immediately available as it is an "Inifinte" file so LMS again using a single HTTP GET will sent an initial burst of data (your 20 sec) but then LMS/player will have to wait until more data is available from source then another burst perhaps 10 secs laters, and then another burst perhaps 10 secs later - so streaming radio is made up of of a lot of short bursts of data with long gaps in between on the same TCP/IP connection - but if connection breaks (e.g. lost packet) then no more audio. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106693 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] RadioStream stopps after 20sec. playing and never resumes
I just "discovered" the following: I connected a 2nd Squeezebox-Receiver to my WiFi and started to stream a webradio. I works without any issues. First I thought: okay, perhaps it is the quality of the web-stream. I stopped that 2nd Squeezebox-Receiver and started the 1st Squeezebox-Receiver with the same webstream. And there the problem still exists. Next, in the WebGui I went to Player, selected the 1st Squeezebox-Receiver and - pressed: resetting - in Audio: I changed all settings to the same values as in the 2nd Squeezebox-Receiver ... and the problem is still there. All what I could further see: when the stream stopps, the color of the bush-button on the Squeezebox-Receiver changes to yellow. Which is an indication for "no wifi connection". But this Squeezebox-Receiver has 100% signal strength, since it is just 5cm away from the WiFi-Router. Much better than the additional 2nd receiver (who has only 49% signal strength).

I will try to answer the items one by one: "Is this a new problem?" Yes and no. I have those Squeezebox-Receivers since 2007. But from the beginning they have been very challenging for me (always some kind of issues). So I didn't use them constantly. However, for sure there was a time without that problem (but at that time, I didn't use two routers in a "client-bridge mode".) Now I want to give those Squeezebox-Receivers a try again. Reason: I have just dicovered that I can use Python to control them over the LMS's CLI. "What station are you playing?" I tried out at least five different stations. All with the same result. At the moment, I test it with the following Url, because that stream has a very low bitrate: http://www.antennebrandenburg.de/livemp3 Why have you such an old version of LMS on a Pi? Old? If I go to http://www.mysqueezebox.com/download, Version 7.7.5 is the most recent one did I miss something? What OS is on your Pi? Raspbian ... but I have setup this Pi perhaps already 3 year. However, I am still doing the updates/upgrades frequently. Are your playes sync? Not at the moment. Indeed, right now only one player is connected What is the topolgoy of your network. I have two routers, each running dd-wrt. Those two routers form a "Client Bridge Mode". The Raspberry is connected with the Client-Router directly over an Ethernet cable. The Squeezebox-Receiver uses the WiFi. I know, this is now indicating towards the "client brdige mode" is the culprit. But why is then a normal stream from the hard-drive causing no trouble at all? Also, everything else in the Lan/Wlan network runs smoothly ... besides the Squeezeboxes.

Indeed, the player's mode is still on "play". This is consistent with LMS waiting for data from the network or network connection has broken while LMS was waiting for data. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106693 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

First: thanks for your fast/kind reply. Regarding .. ... messages in the inlog file: I checked in WebUI the logfile /var/log/squeezeboxserver/server.log: there was nothing recorded around the time, when the issue occured. There have been "only" error messages over 2hrs. (!) before I tried to stream the radio. (That 2hrs. old error message is: [16-12-26 17:57:36.0147] Slim::Networking::SqueezeNetwork::Players::_players_error (334) Unable to get players from SN: Couldn't resolve IP address for: www.mysqueezebox.com, retrying in 86400 seconds" ... I enabled "steaming via proxy" as a MP3 streaming method. I started a stream. I could hear the music immediately ... but the problem remains. After perhaps 20 sec. it stopped and didn't come back. I pressed "play", music starts again very fast ... and after approx. 30sec. it stopped again .. and so on. ... some sort of transcoding issue: what further infomation can I provide which may narrows down the problem. BTW: when the stream stops playing, LMS doesn't indicate that it stoppes. Indeed, the player's mode is still on "play".

LMS preloads a player's buffer before starting playing but it seems your player cannot be topped up after the initial load. 1. Post any message shown inlog file. 2. If it is a simple network issue then enabling "proxied" playback might help - WebUI Settings/Player/Audio/MP3 Streaming Method - set to Proxied. The name is misleading it applies to all format not just MP3. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106693 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
