Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer 8.0.0 - Bluetooth Discussion
Hello, So goal is to be able to have my Teams audio playing on my speakers attached to my piCoreplayer. This part works. Is this the behavior I should be seeing? 1) After manually disconnecting bluetooth from Windows to piCoreplayer, top volume level from piCoreplayer is very low. Only rebooting piCoreplayer sets volume back to "normal" 2) If there is local playback on piCoreplayer, cannot connect bluetooth. Must stop local playback first. Example workflow 1) Manually connect from windows PC to piCoreplayer 2) Have teams meeting 3) When teams meeting is over and would like to start music playing on piCoreplayer Must disconnect manally, player controls does not let me start playing music until I manually disconnect. 4) After manually disconnecting, volume is very low. Setting volume to max, does not make it very load. 5) Reboot, and then local play is at correct volume. bengaldave's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4605 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114834 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] [piCorePlayer] Turn off USB output when turning off player?
I switched off my rpi home LMS server On the rpi3b+ I removed the -C 10 instruction On the Tweaks page I set Radio Paradise to start playback at power on I paused playback in LMS GUI Selected the un-used input on dac; the dac goes into standby Wait for a couple of minutes Press the power button on dac; it powers on with the last input selected. I let it go into standby. I go to LMS GUI and start playback, power on the dac, it self-selects the un-used input. I cycle to usb, music plays. I pause playback on the LMS GUI and select the un-used input, the dac goes into standby. I shutdown the rpi from the pCP Main Page and switch off the power Wait a couple of minutes Switch on the rpi (the dac is still in standby) The Dac power up, self selects the USB input and after a short pause, radio Paradise begins to play.

I edited the conf file with wifi access details, erased my home network details and added my mobile hotspot details, then replaced the microSD card into the RPi and rebooted - and it reconnected to my home network again! How did that happen? I could not get it to connect to my mobile personal hotspot. Does the RPi retain information about previous wifi access points? I thought RPi was memoriless and could only use the config file on the microSD card to access and do other stuff, but then what do I know? Anyway, I'm stuck now until I get back into work as I need to DL interface protocol configs to connect to my NAS share folders. So strange.

Normally Squeezelite keeps the device open while it is running. Have you tried the "-C " option which closes the output device after a timeout when not playing.
