Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeezelite - a small headless squeezeplay emulator for linux (alsa only)

2013-08-24 Thread dahmwern

Question:

I want to use a Raspberry Pi using Wheezy (Hard Float) to run
Squeezelite to a USB DAC. My LMS is located on a ReadyNAS Ultra 2 at my
home. The Raspberry Pi would be located in my office (which is not in my
home). Normally if I wanted to connect to my ReadyNAS remotely from my
office, I could use ReadyNAS Remote which tells my computer that my
ReadyNAS is located on an IP like 5.179.XXX.XX and I could access my LMS
by going to http://5.179.XXX.XX:9000. I'm just wondering how I would do
this with the Raspberry Pi?

Thanks.

 Thanks.

You can have a look at the following documentation page
http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Connecting_remotely


Here is how I would approach the problem
  
- Setup your home router to use a free dynamic DNS service like
  Dyndns.org. This will allow finding your home IP using an address
  similar to myhomeip.dyndns.org
- Setup your home router to assign your ReadyNAS a fixed IP address
  all the time. e.g. 192.168.1.5
- Setup your home router to forward traffic for Squeezebox server
  ports (3483 and 9000) your (now fixed) ReadyNAS internal address
- Setup a password for your server. You don't want someone to start
  one of your zones at full blast in the middle of your sleep? This is
  not spouse friendly!
- Change the maximum bitrate for your squeezelite to reduce bandwidth
  requirements (what is your connection's max upstream speed? choose a
  number well below it) and stay under the sysadmin's radar in your
  office 
- Setup your squeezelite player so it connects to your new dyndns
  address (e.g. myhomeip.dyndns.org). Looking at squeezelite's utils.c
  source code, it should be able to resolve the numeric address
  correctly.
- 
  

If you want added security, you could change the internet facing port
numbers. For example, use port 3876 for the protocol and 8899 for the
interface. This is done by setting up the  forwarding ports accordingly
in your router. If you do so, you must then setup your player's command
line to use server myhomeip.dyndns.org:3876 (specifying the port in the
address) and remember that you have to access your server from your
browser using http://myhomeip.dyndns.org:8899 

This is all in theory, as I've never done it myself.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Gentoo Logitech Media Server ebuild movingto an overlayy

2013-08-24 Thread Stuart Hickinbottom
Better late than never...

As Logitech have published an official 7.7.3 I've updated my
'squeezebox' overlay on layman to include that. A couple of points about
this release:

1. It supports Perl 5.16, but *only* for x86 (32-bit).
2. If you're running amd64 (64-bit) then it will require Perl 5.14 or
ealier, although 5.14 is hard-masked in Gentoo and I've never actually
tested with it, so 64-bit is probably still Perl 5.12 on Gentoo for now.

The package dependendies should mean that you get the right Perl/LMS
combination for your architecture.

The 64-bit restriction is because the upstream release from Logitech
currently doesn't include the required bundled CPAN packages build for
64-bit. I've asked them about that, but from the silence I'm assuming
they don't currently have a build environment that can produce them.

I'll keep my eye on it and update the package as and when there's a
change in the upstream packaging.

Stuart

 Hi Stuart, I hardly dare ask how perl-5.16 compat is coming but I have
 another one for you (although you may well already be aware) -
 dev-libs/icu. Latest app-office/libreoffice-bin is demanding a newer
 version; I'm just wondering if the version-clamping on the current LMS
 is required?

 If I get some free time soon I'll try testing this myself, but if it's a
 situation you're already on top of, info would be welcome.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Community Squeeze OS F19 Release 1

2013-08-24 Thread Stoker

Just about to burn a new SD card with the CSOS F19 (RELEASE 1) DualLite
CPU image downloaded via the http://www.communitysqueeze.org/ web page
and I appear to be getting a mis-match between the MD5 checksum
calculated by Win32 Disk Imager and the check sum published on the web
page (I have checked and double checked that I'm looking at the correct
checksum).

Disk Imager: 74cc01f6ab223440261bc1ba7771b173
Web page:   096a1410ec7b17ceedc0dc5e0cf8f5b3

Never used MD5 before so I might have done something wrong, but I'd
expect the two values to be the same, is that correct?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeezelite - a small headless squeezeplay emulator for linux (alsa only)

2013-08-24 Thread trans_lux

I'm having a strange issue with what I think I have narrowed down to
Squeezelite.
What is happening is after playing streaming radio for an extended
period of time -greater than 24 hours- loud almost DC like distortion
occurs. Only cure is a full reboot then it's good for another 24 hours
or so.
I'm running a 2nd Gen Raspberry pi model b using the squeezeplug
installer with latest nightly build and using the internal sound card on
the pi.
It happens like clock work of two separate pi's.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot would be helpful.
Thanks

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Gentoo Logitech Media Server ebuild moving to an overlay

2013-08-24 Thread Havin_it

FWIW, since my prev post I've upgraded to perl-5.14 (on amd64) and it's
had no problems with 7.7.2, seems fine.

Shame to hear about the lack of amd64 distro for 7.7.3. Hope we hear
something soon...

Hi have you tried the piCorePlayer? It is also bases on the
squeezelite.

  MD5 (CSOS-Wandboard-Dual-F19-R1-20130811-1.img.7z) =

The good news is that your decompressed image is valid, since it agrees
with the one I calculated above. However, the published MD5 checksum
applies to the .7z compressed image *before* decompression.
