Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Server Machine Alternatives.

2019-07-30 Thread florca


A bit late to this discussion, but after many years running LMS on a
"full fat" SuperMicro x86 Ubuntu server I migrated last year to an
Odroid HC1 and couldn't be happier. It has an integral 2.5" disk mount /
massive aluminium heatsink and runs cool, quiet and maintenance free
using a very stable Armbian / Debian Linux distribution. Copes easily
with a 13.5K track / 9 player system.
If I was making the choice now I'd probably go for an Odroid HC2, which
hadn't been launched when I bought my HC1  - essentially the same thing
but with added support for 3.5" / 12V disks rather than the HC1's 2.5" /
5V limit.

There are certainly faster and slightly cheaper options with more
"features" available (I also own several generations of Raspberry Pi and
will probably get a Pi4 for use as a TVHeadend server) and you do need
some basic Linux knowledge to get the thing running properly compared to
PcP / max2play, but for a robust, well-engineered mini-server device
with decent heat dissipation I think the HC1 or HC2 take some beating.

That said, for a first Linux system then the Pi4 / PcP option would
definitely be my recommendation and sounds like it's running very well
for you - welcome to the world of SBCs :)

I have noticed this premature scan temination for a while myself. I
typically have 2 LMS (MAX2PLAY) servers on identical Pi's with only one
running at any time, and the other used  as a player and a possible LMS
backup. Both LMS's are  pointing towards the same  music folder on a
FREENAS platform using the same user credentials. I have found LMS 
7.9.0 will scan properly, but later releases will "terminate
unexpectantly" with the last log entry pointing at a "invalid rating
tag".

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS web interface keeps becoming unresponsive on Debian 10

2019-07-30 Thread Howard Passman


I'm on Logitech Media Server Version: 7.9.2 - 1564003588 and LMS is dog
slow in responding. Unfortunately I upgraded to an RPI4, piCorePlayer
6.01 and the new LMS all in one fell swoop. Not sure which or if it is a
combo that is the culprit. I use almost no Plugins and of course
everything worked fine on the old 3B+ pi and pcP 5.0.

Not sure where to start or if it is even an LMS issue. May wait until a
new version of LMS comes out to see if it sorts itself out, but would
appreciate any suggestions in the mean time.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] library rescan seems to start at random times

2019-07-30 Thread Mongo


I prefer to have LMS rescan only when I want it to, but it seems to do
it on it's own at random intervals. Is there a control I am missing? 
thanks
