Insane bumping for long forgotten (but still loved) pCP threads seems to
be the thing to do these days
well, aside from the funnies and to avoid the ban hammer, I have a real
question :p
Can I take an uSD thats running LMS in a Pi4 and move it to a Pi3 and
have it work properly ??
rPi

Probably not (I'm not sure what would be involved) - I've just used the
pcp web interface.

Interactively, it is very easy ... but then you can see what it is
doing.
However, there are CLI commands to tell LMS to play a favourite.

Hey Kev,
I haven't used Ubuntu much so I can't really make an informed comparison
between it and Alpine. It's extremely petty of me, but the cutesy little
animal names they use for the Ubuntu releases irritate me and make me
not want to use it just for that. I'd rather just say that Alpine kind

LMS uses a local cache for its music library that can get rather large,
and uses alot of space when "optimizing" the database. A Pi is not
going to have enough ram. If you only stream from internet radio, then
not as much will be cached, but then it's not affecting performance
either.
Further to my previous post, I had a thought, probably a stupid one.
Can LMS be forced to run entirely from RAM? That way the type of boot
media would have no effect on performance? Or is there not enough RAM?

Hi Sodface,
What's the advantage of using Alpine over say Ubuntu, Not yet got round
to playing around with it but I picked up a Wyse 3040 16Gb thin client
after your recommendation.
Not sure what it's end use will be yet, but definitely will try it for
LMS, thinking also maybe an entire

Hi blackbird, I'm thrilled to see someone else running Alpine on a
I had a request for the APKBUILD files to build the packages needed for
jivelite on Alpine and which aren't in the official Alpine repos -
namely, jivelite, sdl_gfx, and sdl_ttf. I still have repos for aarch64,

Yes. Also some current models have 512MB - for example Raspberry Pi Zero
