[SlimDevices: Unix] Restoring from SD Corruption of piCorePlayer
I'm looking for some input from those with more experience with this system. We had a power outage and my SD card got corrupted. I believe I was running piCorePlayer 6 or 7 (the file /boot/config.txt says things like `[PI0] initramfs rootfs-pCP-12.0.gz,modules-5.4.83-pcpCore.gz...` ). I've been able to copy most, if not all, of the files to my local linux laptop. (I view this as quite an accomplishment given that I couldn't actually mount the PCP_ROOT partition and had to copy it and then 'mount it using the -noload flag' (https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/554039/114944)). I am now wondering what's the best way to proceed. I'm reasonably linux savvy, but it's been over a year since I set up piCP and I remember it took me a while to understand all of the terminology related to the player, so I'd like to avoid starting from scratch again. I have a '/PCP_ROOT/tce/mydata.tgz' file from Apr 2021. I'm using a HiFi Berry Digi optical output to my receiver and wondering what's the best way to proceed. Any suggestions? I'd also love some suggestions on how to avoid a similar corruption event the next time there's a power outage. I was streaming from spotify at the time, so I guess it was writing and reading from the disk, but otherwise, I was surprised that the SD card got corrupted since my understanding is that the player and OS are loaded into memory rather than continually read from the SD card.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0
Thanks for your comments, all. The Topping D30 was in my sights. If the USB audio from a P4 is fine I have another option. I Southampton I run an old Beresford 7510 DAC which has no USB input, but I Nicosia I have a later 7520 which does. I could swap them over - when I get to travel! The other option is just to use a Raspberry Pi (hatless) as a server and park it next to the Router. I have enough receivers to go round! But from what I read, no matter what the final solution, the purchase of a P4 may be a good idea.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] 'Official' docker container for LMS?
Looking at the Squeezelite docs the -s option is used to set the LMS server address and port if autodiscover is not used. It also appears that, if you're using https://hub.docker.com/r/giof71/squeezelite, the SQUEEZELITE_SERVER_PORT is passed as this -s parameter. This means that you should set this variable to the address and port that your LMS server is using for your Squeezelite container. Please give it a go - change the docker-compose file for Squeezelite and restart the container. sparkyuk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70716 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111828 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

The USB external DAC poor sound quality was a criticism of the pre Pi4 architecture where the USB ports shared a bus with the Ethernet port. That architecture changed with the Pi4, where the USB ports have a dedicated bus. I think now its accepted that with the pi4 architecture there is good quality sound from a USB external DAC. That has certainly been my experience. If I understand your requirements correctly, I would recommend something like a Topping E30 DAC https://www.amazon.co.uk/TOPPING-E30-Hi-Res-AK4493-Decoder-Black/dp/B0868J7NRV/ref=sr_1_3?crid=13G5FCJ0K184Z=topping+dac=1641811256=topping+dac%2Caps%2C46=8-3. You can connect your Pi to the USB input and your TV to the optical input. I use an E30 in this way and also have a CD player connected to the Coaxial input and am very happy with the sound quality. coyrls's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44253 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114828 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

All player control is done via network. I know nothing about Docket etc. but your issues is probably network - something is blocking discovery which is a broadcast packet. Have you tried manually (i.e. command line option) telling squeezelite the IP address of the LMS server. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115716 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0
I presently have a Beresford DAC strapped to the back of the TV with its two optical inputs driven by 1.A Chromecast Audio dongle receiving via Castbridge 2. A TV which has a Chromecast Video Dongle attached - this dongle is also recognised by Castbridge and audio may be streamed by that route. LMS sits on a old PC and works well enough though a Raspberry Pi would use less power! The old Beresford DAC is able to drive the amplifier and speakers (when switched on) and, with a separate volume control, drive headphones, so I have a setup that suits my needs well. I have seen the HIFIBERRY DIGI+ I/O advertised https://www.hifiberry.com/shop/boards/hifiberry-digi-io/ and I wonder if a Raspberry Pi with this hat and PiCorePlayer would allow me to achieve the same ends as above. Is it possible to use the I/O board for TV sound loopthrough? Would PiCorePlayer control the hat effectively for that purpose? I note the latest PiCorePlayer has graphical control of ALSA mixer, and that gives me hope. Deep modification of the underlying Linux would be beyond me. If this were possible a passive splitter on the analogue output of the HiFiBerry DAC would allow me to drive both the Loudspeaker Amp and a new Headphone amp with independent control. Is this a sensible approach as I look to replace ageing hardware? What other options might I have? A new external DAC with https://www.hifiberry.com/shop/boards/hifiberry-dacplus-rca-version/ would be one. It must be a common need to merge TV sound into a quality lounge audio system.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0
I've used resizeFS to use 'Whole disk' and now normal services has resumed. No errors in log now. I guess it was down to the nightly builds not clearing old versions but didn't get to the root of the disk space culprit. Back to the Release branch for now.

I am not surprised to be honest, based upon my earlier testing I don't think drivers are causing this. *Living Room:* RPI2+HifiBerry DAC+ Pro & piCorePlayer *Attic:* RPI2+HifiBerry DAC+ RCA & piCorePlayer *Other rooms:* 6x SB Radio *LMS*: Version 8.2.0 on Xubuntu 21.10 zordaz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=61726 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114828 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
