[SlimDevices: Unix] Squeezelite newbie question

2017-07-10 Thread patrick31698
Hi, i recently switched from Max2Play to picorePlayer (3.11 audio) on my Pi3 running both the LMS and squeezelite with jivelite visualisation. I would like to use SaverSwitcher bur i find no way configuring it. Is it still working on recent pCP ? All i found about SaverSwitcher is quite old.

No good news. Capacitor in between DAC and display power did not work at all (DAC gave no output). Removed it, got audio again, but with the above described issue. Then I put several capacitors at the 5V power input of the Raspberry Pi. No change. How is separate powering of the display done?

At a very simplistic level, alsa is at the kernel level and handles the low level communication to the hardware. Pulse audio sits above alsa, and can handle input from multiple sources. paul-'s Profile:

:D:D:cool: OK, got it. Yes, I have in fact seen this symbol. Never thought about it very much. Now, I know more. I will place a stabilizing 220µF capacitor within the power connection between DAC and display and then look how it works. Because this is quite easy to implement. If that works,

Well, of course I could power the touchscreen separately. Just have to figure out how to do it. Another idea: Insert a large Electrolyte capacitor at the output of the 5V supply. How do you think about that? What is this lightening bolt?

A power supply can be putting out proper voltage, but creating noise. I suspect certain DACs are more prone to noisy power supplies. I have all kinds of setups running for debugging.I have some that always run with the lightening bolt.yet they never lock/ crash. Do you have a way to

I initially had the "official" Raspberry Pi 2.5A supply. Already suspected the power supply (especially now with touchscreen attached) and bought a 3A supply (noname). Unfortunately, the problem still occurred. Should I nevertheless try the CanaKit one?
