You can edit out the additional wifi retries in do_rebootstuff.sh regards Greg Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106755 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 3.10
Hi Paul, Thanks for the fast reply! No console needed, it's a device I need to talk to. Everything works fine as long as I'm on any network. But if not, initialisation of that api-object fails. That said: I don't think it needs Internet access, but it might be worth a try if it still fails inside an offline-network... For the ad-hoc: It's a workaround for that what I'm working on ;) Benicz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66468 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106755 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 3.10
I'm not sure If I understand what your program is doing, but If you just want a serial console, that would be easy to setup, we don't have it setup right because it requires different kernel command lines for the rpi vs rpi3. if you want a serial console.edit cmdline.txt and make sure the console is setup for your board rpi3 console=ttyS0,115200 all other rpi devices console=ttyAMA0,115200 Then in /opt/bootlocal.sh before the pcp launch, start the serial console /usr/sbin/startserialtty & - Ad-hoc network...we've talked about that, and would work for the rpi zeroW and rpi3, but supporting on every USB dongle would be a challenge. Country code is not currently supported by our startup scripts, and they automatically generate the wpa_supplicant.conf. .the rpi broadcom wireless struggles on these channels anyway. paul-'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58858 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106755 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 3.10
Hi guys, I'm posting here because I'm still on 3.11 - but I dont' think my problem would be different on later versions. I'm runnig a python script which is started automatically via user commands on the tweaks page. It uses tty:ama0 on my RPi3, working fine usually, network is connected via onboard-wifi. But I'd like to take care of the situation where no connection can be established. That is: - no ethernet plugged in - the known SSID not in sight. First I thought it's not called because squeezelite fails starting(?), but by accident I found out it does get called - but laaate! Taking ridiculously long this is fine (for now), but my script fails at a certain point where it comes to tty:ama0 access. with a screen attached I could see the three patient attempts to get online and then enters a (sort of a) fail-state. (By the way: is there a way to get rid of these? debugging takes years ;) ) Is there a difference in how the uart is set up in that case? console re-routed? (needed to swap uarts to access an external device) Are there modules not / unloaded? Thanks, any hints appreciated! :) PS: Wouldn't it be great for most of us if it would create an adhoc network, making the configpage accessible? Maybe this could be deactivated if it's unwanted for security reasons...

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce piCorePlayer 3.20
I think Paul is correct, sounds like the disks are hibernating. A couple of things to try out; In synology's web page interface go to -control panel / HDD hibernation- try unticking the options for disk hibernate and also the "DS will enter standyby via WOL after the internal disk ...etc etc" this will prevent the diskstation from being the cause also, last time I looked, Synology LMS was an older version. Try going into -package center / settings / beta- and tick "yes, i want to see beta versions!" grab the latest beta and that will make everything more responsive rPi 3 + rasPi 7" LCD + HiFiBerry DiGi+ | rPi 2 + IQaudio DAC+ |rPi 2 + HiFiBerry DAC+ | Squeeze Box Touch | LMS + XPenology on HP Gen 8 | huxmut's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=65108 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107352 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

That would not be causing what you are describing. Powersave is the default governer in the kernel (Same as raspbian) paul-'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58858 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107352 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Yes, music is on a Synology DS1817+ but I don't think that's it. Have several other devices pointed to the same NAS have no delay. Also if I have streaming radio live the system stays responsive. With that being said I will check the NAS I do have a fairly large collection of music- 2.7tb with 87,923 tacks that LMS can ID. Would the Governor settings -conservative ondemand userspace powersave performance-be relevant to what I'm seeing? I've tried to set it to performance but it looks to default back to Powersave.
