Also, check for undervoltage.
Click [Main Page] > [Diagnostics] > [Logs]
Select "undervoltage"

Hopefully, you can do these checks before everything locks up.

Hi
For a while now I'm encountering problems with piCorePlayer. It stops
(disconnects, crashes) after a short while, often 30 minutes, sometimes
an hour or so.
Running piCorePlayer 7.0.0 (32bit) on 512Mb RPi1. Upgraded to 8.0.0, no
avail. Fresh install of 8.0.0, no avail. Swapped power supply,

I have a feeling it's wifi related.
Run [Wifi Settings] > [Diagnostics] and look for errors. You may need to
run diagnostics a few times to get a feeling of what is "normal".
I haven't run a RPi1 with WiPi for a while, so I'll set one up and see
how it behaves.
Ah!
should have done a search and not assume it was a typo :o:o:o

Hi Ronnie,
As Greg already pointed out, it is a WiPi
35682
And I'm using the audo jack, no HAT or USB Audio.

Don't know Clear Linux ... Ubuntu works really well for LMS, and don't
forget that the PiCore player is based on tiny-core linux, and is very
solid as well..I am unfamiliar with how linux plays in a NUC
environment, but it should be fine ...

I know there are those that don't think playlists work well in your root
music folder, but I have always had them there with no issue. My master
music library is on a Win10 PC on a D: drive in a folder named Music
(D:\Music\). On my android phone I have a MicroSD card that I also have
a folder
Great you found a solution.
My RPi1B + WiPi is still going... 13 hours.
I have experienced wifi suddenly become unstable, but it has turned out
to be the neighbours installing newer wifi routers that *I think*
compete for channels if channel selection is set to auto.
Aren't the clever PCB-based antennae on Pis _orientation_sensitive_?
I got better WiFi reception with a Pi (Pi3 actually) VERTICAL, rather
than horizontal.

Maybe! The quality and level did drop though.
Code:
Pos QualityLevel
1. 100 -11dBm
2. 75-57dBm
I think the problems start

It's been running for a couple of hours with a different USB-WiFi
adapter. I'm going to try the WiPi again and check the undervoltage.

Maybe if you move it even further away it will work even better!

Got it stuck with the WiPi in just about an hour. I had a dmesg running
in repeat but nothing specific was detected before the crash :(.
So I'm afraid my WiPi has ceased to be reliable, after all these
years...

picore player is ethernet-connected after wifi confusion when setup

Can you use something like InSSIDer (on Windows) to check the WiFi
channels in use in your vicinity: their strength and channel numbers?
