Thanks again for the quick responses and guidance! re: garym wrote: > no, but you don't need to do that anyhow. I assume the music files are > on a USB drive you connect to the rPi4 Actually I set up LMS so everything runs from a single microSD including the library; wouldn't recommend it for a library that changes often and I always have at least three library backups, including one on a local USB SSD connected to my daily use PC and an archive in the cloud. Right now I have three LMS online, one running 7.92, one running 7.94 with library on USB SSD, and the new one running 8.0.1. Picked up a Samsung EVO Select 256GB microSDXC for $25 on Black Friday for the new server :) I'm getting a case for the rPi 4 running 8.0.1 this weekend and will physically replace the 7.92 LMS direct attached to my firewall/gateway. I'll pull out the microSD from the 7.92 and keep that as an archive for now and turn the rPi 3 into a piCorePlayer, replacing an rPi4 currently running Squeezelite Haven't patched the Radios yet, that's on my to do for this evening and then I can cut over completely to the 8.0.1 LMS. So far it seems to be running great - one small glitch in that I changed to a static IP after I installed LMS and the plug-ins - the Spotty plug-in v4.4.4 kept a reference to the previous dynamic IP. Just needed to unclick/remove the plug in and then add it back in and all is well. When I get the library tagged properly will build a PiCorePlayer LMS server and check it out.

I assume the music files are on a USB drive you connect to the rPi4. Simply shutdown piCore on the rPi, unplug the USB drive, and plug that USB drive into your computer and use EasyTag to update your files. When done, just plug back into your rPi and restart the rPi. You'll probably need to then have LMS rescan your library to pick up tag changes. (Note, I often have to do a clear and rescan to get tag only changes picked up, rather than just a "new and changed".) *Home:* VBA2.5 4TB -or- rPi4B/pCP6.1/4TB>LMS 8.0.x>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* rPi4B/pCP6.1/4TB>LMS 8.0.x>Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (ethernet except Radio WIFI) *Office:* Win10(64)>foobar2000 *The Wild: *rPi3B+/pCP4.0, hifiberry Dac+Pro, 4TB USB (LMS & Squeezelite) *Controllers:* iPhone11 & iPadAir3 (iPeng), CONTROLLER, Material Skin, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) *Files:* -Ripping-: dbpoweramp > FLAC; -Post-rip-: mp3tag, PerfectTunes; -Streaming:- Spotify garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113349 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Idiots Guide to LMS 8.x Installation?
PS. Although you can use Raspbian (or max2play) I'd suggest that piCorePlayer is the way to go as it is constantly being developed, is very well supported (here) and provides easy upgrade of LMS after the initial install.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Idiots Guide to LMS 8.x Installation?
Decided to build an new LMS 8.x on an rPI 4b to replace my LMS from 7.9x on an rPi 3b and wondering if there's one source for installation guidance? This won't be an upgrade, I'm starting from scratch and will https://docs.picoreplayer.org/projects/build-simple-lms-server/ copy my library over once LMS 8.0 is installed. I recall seeing somewhere that the Boom needs to be upgraded; I have 1 Boom and 2 The Boom is fine. The Radio might cause some warning in the log and elsewhere, but it should work without modification. You can still take care of this minor issue once everything's set up. Radios. Also wondering if there's any advantage to using a 4GB board instead of a 2GB, I have both handy. I'm using a 2GB version, and about 1GB is free all the time. Sure, if you have hundreds of thousands of tracks, that might be different. My configuration is fairly simple - one local library, handful of standard LMS plug ins plus Spotty and ShairTunes2. -- Michael ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
