Problem solved. When I noticed that LMS would detect my SqueezePlay or SqueezePad as clients, and it's only the Chromecasts that were not found, I dove into the Chromecast Bridge settings. And yes, that one did have a "Network binding and port" setting that allowed me to force my hardware

My LMS runs on a Windows machine that serves multiple purposes. Over the weekend, I played around with Home Assistant and had it installed on that server in a VM using VirtualBox. Since then, LMS is not finding any of my players anymore. I noticed that VirtualBox creates a virtual network

The behavior is indeed rather inconsistent and weird. The Player has 'Album Artists', 'Artists' and 'All Artists' in the Additional Browser Modes. However, they don't necessarily appear when you enable their checkbox, as it also depends on what you have chosen as the Browse Artists option (the 1

I am trying to get a list of all people that appear as ARTIST in any track of my library. This especially for artist that are tagged as 2nd, 3rd... artist in a track. However, this seems to be impossible. When I choose 'Use single configurable list of artists' , there is no way to have a 2nd

Yep, had already read about needing to enable the Flow setting. Listening to Kate BushÂ’s Before The Dawn and sounds perfect! One thing I was wondering: is there a benefit of transcoding to flac rather than pcm? Also, my sources are already in flac, does it then still decode and recode, given you

Sad day. While the issue with the bad connection in the plug is definitely gone, the playback issue has not. I still get dropouts, pauses, reboots... when playing back both from my LMS as well as radio streams. Even using MySqueezebox resulted in very erratic behavior. So my SB3 has become all

In the meantime I had other random behaviour, even when just playing FLACs. Sometimes it would just skip randomly to the next track. Or it would stop playing. And on one occasion the music suddenly had huge distortion. So am just back from buying a spare PSU. First tests look good. Wiggling the

Thanks for the suggestion ! I unplugged the wifi card (didn't manage to unplug the antenna wires - not sure if possible) but to no avail. What I notice also is that if I wiggle the 5V power plug in the Squeezebox, I can trigger a reboot as well, so it looks like a bad contact. However, while the

After further testing it looks like it might be a hardware problem. It turns it out it's not just the stream that stops, but it's actually the Squeezebox crashing/rebooting, and then goes straight to the radio display again, which is why I just thought that the stream halted. I'll do some

No 192.168.22.39 is my iPad. So all errors in the log seem to pertain to my iPad. I can't see any logs that pertain to my Squeezebox. BTW, 'Radio' in my previous post meant the radio application of LMS. Squid's Profile:

Sorry, meant to provide more details but then forgot. LMS is v7.9.1 on a Windows 10 Pro server. Server is wired (1Gbps) to the router, but both the Squeezebox 3 and the iPad/Squeezepad connect to the router wirelessly. Radio stations I tried with are local ones here in Belgium (Q-Music, Stu Bru,

I have a problem with playing radio streams. I can start a stream via Radio -> Local -> Stations -> any station, or by just hitting Play when I also last played the radio station. However, after a while, the stream just stops playing. This can be after an hour or after 5 minutes. I checked

Ok, looks like either my router or my server itself are the suspects. I got a couple more dropouts tonight while the SB3 was connected over wifi directly with the router. The problems occurred while my wife's laptop, also over wifi to that same router, was running a huge backup. When the SB3 lost
