The biggest problem is a functioning kernel. Nobody in a semi official channel maintains a working RT kernel for rpi.

You cannot run fsck to make repairs on a mounted file system. When fsck runs at boot, the file system is not mounted, so it can run normally. If your filesystem wont get repaired, it is likely a failing sdcard. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Linux noob
Thanks to all that have replied. Regarding the use of a rpi4 instead of something hardware. I got the pi in a nice cabinet for free. So it seemed obvious to go for that. When I got SSH to work, things got much easier. I think I'm done setting up. Maybe some minor tweaking remains. I'm sure it's far from best practice. But it works and I don't have to do anything to keep it going. I set the pCP to reboot every night. And in User Command #1 I have this: rsync -av --delete /mnt/Data/ServerFolders/Data/ /mnt/Back1/Data/ and in #2 the same, only the name of my other backupdisk. This way backup runs every night and I can easily trigger and extra backup if needed. I get a couple of errors from the mount and command that fails but it doesn't seem to cause any actual problems. LMS and Samba runs nicely. I think I'm gonna be happy about this setup for years to come.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0
Yup, no argument on that front! But there's no point passing just 'y' to fsck since the vol is mounted i.e. tc@PCP-XLR-LMS:~$ e2fsck -y /dev/mmcblk0p2 e2fsck 1.45.6 (20-Mar-2020) /dev/mmcblk0p2 is mounted. e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting. I'm confused as to what you're suggesting. My question in case it wasn't clear was about why fsck in read-only mode indicated free count issues if fsck had been run on boot?

The files are on a NAS. We did have a power cut which upset the ip address of the Pi running LMS server. I then fixed this in the router settings by linking the ip address to the MAC. The address of the NAS was already fix in this way, so the Pi should have still had the correct address for the NAS.

OK - good there is open source application for dongle you have. I think you should develop & test on a full Raspbian system - then recompile for PCP. To interface with LMS - I think you should be aiming for a command line which can take parameters to tune (i) if no audio stream then stream audio to STDOUT and feed into LMS. (ii) if standard USB PCM audio stream - use arecord to capture and feed into LMS. (iii) Leave metadata until tuning ans treaming audio is sorted. Metadata can be handled in many ways. If there is a simple PCM audio interface then you'll be able to use "arecord" to test and check. Check the USB device to see if there is a audio interface - use something like "*lsusb -v -d 077d:627a*" Look in the output for "audio" interface that is "streaming". It'll also give the format such as PCM but possibly audio from DABmay not be decoded and may still be in AAC. The lsusb output will say what is supported.

Non-native file systems are always mounted with single user write permissions. When mounting a vfat file system as root you can specify additional command line parameters to grant read/write access to other users as well. See 'this page' (https://superuser.com/questions/61/how-do-i-auto-mount-a-usb-drive-that-all-users-can-write-to/617782#617782) for info. Beware of hints stating to use fstab to accomplish this. If the drive is not attached during boot there is a chance that the system will stall on the mountall phase and that is pretty annoying on a headless system because this means that the ssh daemon will never be started and you either need an alternative method to connect to the system (i.e. a serial console) or boot a rescue system to access and delete the conflicting line. gordonb3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71050 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114879 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
