Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCorePlayer 8.0.0 - Bluetooth Discussion

2022-02-05 Thread StevenEllis 


Is there any way to increase the buffer between LMS and the bluetooth
device?

I've got some poor 2.4GHz wifi issues and I'm getting jumpy audio to my
Sony BT speakers on a regular basis.

I'm currently using a Raspi-Zero-W and I have the most issues if I use
the built in BT & Wifi.

I've tried an external BT Dongle, but that simply made things far worse.
Then I tried turning off the built in WiFI and using an old 2.4Ghz wifi
stick. It is a little bit better, but can still be a bit patchy.

I've also tried a Pi3 using 5.4 GHz wifi and everything was much better,
but I don't have a spare unit to use as a streamer full time.

Looking at my WiFi APs I'm seeing a lot of re-tried traffic heading to
the pizero. On the raspi side I appear to have a stable wifi
connection.

The wierd part with all of this is we'll have a couple of days where the
BT speakers will work with almost no issues, and then we'll have a
couple of days of constant stuttering. I'd really appreciate any
tips/tricks as I'm running out of ideas

Thanks. Looks like I can resolve the issue by using sed instead of grep.

I'm using a third party script "mijia_mqtt.sh" to read my temp/humidity
sensors. I'll need to take a look at the code structure.

[SlimDevices: Unix] picoreplayer grep version issues

2021-10-06 Thread StevenEllis 


I'm running some additional scripts on my picoreplayer instances to pull
data from some bluetooth based sensors. This script requires pcre
support in grep.

My older picoreplayer 7.0 systems still work as they currently have grep
3.1 


Code:


  tc@bluesqueeze:~$ grep --version
  grep (GNU grep) 3.1
  Copyright (C) 2017 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
  License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later .
  This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it.
  There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law.
  
  Written by Mike Haertel and others, see 
.
  tc@bluesqueeze:~$ grep -oP 'value: \K.*'
  
  



On my recently upgraded instance I tried installing grep from extensions
and it now lacks pcre support

Code:


  tc@Homeoffice:~$ grep --version
  grep (GNU grep) 3.4
  Copyright (C) 2020 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
  License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later 
.

  Written by Mike Haertel and others; see
  .
  tc@Homeoffice:~$ grep -oP 'value: \K.*'
  grep: Perl matching not supported in a --disable-perl-regexp build
  
  



Has anyone else hit this issue, and do you have a recommended fix as I'd
like to upgrade my pizero environment to version 8.0.

Ok disabled the tweak and removed the add on.

Reboot and then enable the tweak without installing the extension first.
Now it appears to work.. Interesting.

I've installed the alsaequal extension and enabled it under Tweaks but
squeezelite won't start.

Here is the output from the command line

# /usr/local/bin/squeezelite -n HomeOffice -o plugequal -a "80 4  0"  -s

Whilst the following will work.
# /usr/local/bin/squeezelite -n HomeOffice -o sysdefault -a "80 4  0" 
-s newserver -C 5


The following works as well

# speaker-test -c 2 -d equal

Any ideas on additional troubleshooting?

Insitu upgrade issues on a Original Pi model B from version 7.x

I had bluetooth enabled - tried to disable / remove bluetooth support
from the webui an when the system rebooted I had no SSH access and
picoreplayer didn't start.

Connected a screen and keyboard and it appears some of the config wasn't
being loaded correctly as a bunch of directories were missing in
/usr/local/

Anyway I did a fresh install onto the SD card and rebuilt the config.
I've now got a secondary minor issue which I'll take to a different
thread.

Just re-tested on a clean install with pcp-streamer, latest patches and
bluetooth support.

Running analog audio and device = hw:CARD=ALSA I can stream from my
phone as a player or streamer, to headphones connected to the RasPi.

On my other Pi I've disabled analog audio as I'm just running a USB-DAC
- see device details below.

What is the default PIN when the piCorePlayer is in Discover mode. I've
tried  and 1234 from my phone and neither will work.

Excellent. Thanks for clarifying that. Worked perfectly.

2020-03-23 Thread StevenEllis 


Had a clean upgrade on the pi connected to my USB DAC, but I can't get
bluetooth working on my piZero

Tried an upgrade and I've now switched to a clean install

Installed the Bluetooth support and rebooted - then enabled bluetooth
and paired with the speaker without issues.

Under the "Audio output device settings" I no longer have a Bluetooth
option - only the standard DACs, HDMI and Analogue

Running

play -L

I can confirm the device is paired with 
- bluetoothctl paired-devices

I'm sure there is some obvious step I've missed. Any ideas/tips?
