It never broke in a way that it was unusable. The only thing that "regularly" breaks whenever Perl is updated is LMS. In the past I just had to wait until some kind soul uploaded a version with the new CPAN modules included. As LMS 8.3.0 already had them, I thought I may as well update from 8.0.1 to 8.3.0 this morning. So, to me (not experienced with Perl at all) it looks like some include/lookup path is not set correctly? -- Stefan Bellon ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Updating from 8.0.1 to 8.3.0
Hi community, this morning my LMS installation broke (again) due to the fact that Debian updated Perl from 5.32 to 5.34 and my installation of LMS 8.0.1 that was running happily for over a year broke (as always when Perl gets a major update). I looked around http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/index.php and realised that only LMS 8.3.0 has support for Perl 5.34, so I downloaded the latest logitechmediaserver_8.3.0~1644276318_amd64.deb and installed it. However, now it doesn't start up at all and even the server.log stays empty - which seems unhelpful. journalctl shows me the following lines: Feb 08 08:18:07 slim systemd[1]: Started Logitech Media Server.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Starting multiple players simultaneously
For a one-off scenario like this, you could merge all four CDs with Audacity or similar to make a single audio file. Then use a single player.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Starting multiple players simultaneously
One more thought. I'm sure that, in the past, Michael has pointed us toward better ways to do this than using HTML commands. Maybe he will refresh our memories this time. But I just had good luck using this command: Code: curl "http://:9000/Classic/status_header.html?p0=play=00%3A00%3A00%3A00%3A00%3A00" &> /dev/null It might be worth trying to put four such commands in a single script, running each one in the background to minimize the delay between them.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Starting multiple players simultaneously
Might it work if you set an alarm on each - with each one launching a different CD. I suspect that they would not be close enough to each other ... but might be OK if they are LMS controlled devices (e.g. SB1/SB2/SB3/Transporter). Otherwise a script that does not wait for the response from LMS (fire and forget) might get them going within a couple of tenths of a second.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Starting multiple players simultaneously
This is horribly convoluted, but it's the only thing I've thought of so far: Take four computers. Any combination of desktops, laptops, Raspberry Pis, or whatever. Each one needs to have the capability to run a command at a specified time, like cron on LInux. Each one also needs to have the capability to run a command that will click a button in a gui. (In LInux, xdotool serves that purpose.) Make sure time is synchronized on all four. Open LMS in a browser and select a different player on each one. Have the appropriate version of the album ready to play in each. Do all the necessary measurements and calculations to set up a command that will click on the Play button. Would that actually work? Maybe. Probably not. On second thought, aren't there html and/or json commands you could use to do this? LMS 8 nightly running on Raspberry Pi OS.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Starting multiple players simultaneously
This sounds like it should be an easy thing to do but as far as I know there isn't a way to start multiple non synchronised players at the same time. There is likely only one possible reason for this (that I can think of) and that is playing Zaireeka by the The Flaming Lips the way it was intended to be played. It consists of four CDs which are meant to played on four players simultaneously. A Squeezebox system would appear to be ideal for this until you actually try to do it. I even tried using an IR remote in the hope of triggering all players at the same time [emoji1787]. For those versed in the art it sounds like an easy thing to achieve but that is not me.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Set prerred server?
I brought up the same thing a while back when I ran a 2nd LMS so that I could more easily work on plugin testing while someone else is listening to stuff. I agree that it is a bit of a pain. Squeezelite and bridges migrate to the LMS that they can find if the one that they were connected to disappears (e.g. restart on plugin update). Setting the IP address in Squeezelite is a possible way of doing things - but I have held off doing it because I have held off assigning IP addresses to things (even in router) unless it is essential. My reasoning behind this in a bit of a stretch but I like the idea that I could change the IP address of the network (e.g. pick up the equipment and move it to another building and it would, mostly, work). Of course, other things that I have put in place (e.g. a router behind the ISP router and even AirPort Express sitting in a travel bag pre-configured as an access point with same SSID/passphrase as home) mean that this is almost never going to be an issue ...
