Thanks for your reply about 3.5 (I started working with this back in February which is why I was still on 3.2) Are you aware of a problem with the library being shown as "empty" on 3.5? I setup everything fine (fresh install from the download link you provided above) made all settings as per 3.2, the library media scan worked ok in that I can see on the :9000 page "1824 albums with 23738 songs by 743 artists. However, the "My Music" folder is empty and when I connect with my Squeezebox Classic it says the music library is "empty". I've rebooted twice and also re scanned the library. I've searched the 3.5 thread and no-one else seems to be reporting the issue, any idea what it could be? shaunm's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11987 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107995 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

I would take a look at pCP 3.5.0 or the newly released 4.0.0 beta. That will do a full AP Mode setup now, and for sure will run LMS with just the AP running. The only catch is the original setup on a zero. You really need to temporarily connect a USB ethernet device for initial configuration. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

Great - thank you! I will try that asap. 2 questions: 1) Where do I specify, if I use open or WEP? (I don't see that in the above script.) 2) The limitation "only open or WEP" applies only while in adhoc, correct? Once I am connected via adhoc, I can update the 'real' network credentials on the WiFi page w/o this limitation just as before, right?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] picoreplayer without network
Setting up a simple ad-hoc network can be done..the biggest problem is that ad-hoc on the rpi does not support wpa encryption. All you can do is open or WEP. if you edit the file /opt/bootlocal.sh. Add the following lines AFTER the #pCPstop-- line Code: ifconfig | grep -q Bcast if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then echo "Entering Wifi Ad-Hoc mode" pkill udhcpd [ ! -d /var/lib/misc ] && mkdir /var/lib/misc touch /var/lib/misc/udhcpd.lease cat << EOF > /etc/udhcpd.conf interface wlan0 start 10.10.10.2 end 10.10.10.10 opt subnet 255.255.255.0 opt dns 10.10.10.1 opt router 10.10.10.1 EOF ifconfig wlan0 down iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc iwconfig wlan0 key 1234567ABC iwconfig wlan0 channel 6 essid pCP ifconfig wlan0 10.10.10.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up udhcpd DONE=0 until [ $DONE -ne 0 ]; do if [ "$(iwgetid -r)" != "pCP" ]; then echo "New SSID Connected" DONE=1 fi ifconfig eth0 | grep -q Bcast if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "eth0 is now up" DONE=1 fi sleep 5 done pkill udhcpd echo "Exiting" fi You can make the WEP key anything you want (as above its 1234567ABC)... there is no DNS server so once the adhoc is up and your device connects to it...the address of the pCP device will be 10.10.10.1. My iphone takes along time to accept its dhcp lease, perhaps setting that connection as a static would work faster. Again, this setup is just for configuration. Once you click on Save/Connect on the wifi page, wait for the backup to get doneyou will see it try to connect, this obviously kills the ad-hoc network. Your device should come online just fine.

I just > need to remember to make sure I have my phone on me, and it's charged! I'm trying to build a portable player that switches easily between my home network for samba transfer of music and the outside world, my solution is using an esp8266 in ap and station mode that mimics my home hub Sid and password. This allows picore wifi settings to remain the same but i can access the music easily by use of mobile phone linked to esp8266 hub for control. c3p0's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20721 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107995 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] picoreplayer without network
I've a simple fix to this issue - I've created a hotspot on my phone that uses the same SID and passphrase as the usual wireless router, allowing piCorePlayer to startup normally when used remotely. I just need to remember to make sure I have my phone on me, and it's charged!

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] picoreplayer without network
SOLVED I can not understand why so many wonder why the need to have a network streamer not networked... Anyway it was more simple than what I could imagine... I just configured a static IP address and... problem solved. I now have two "storage"... one is the local 256 GB USB stick for low resolution commercial music and the other one is the HP Proliant running as a NAS with TB of high resolution music. If I am in my studio I can play both... if I move to the pool, I play from USB without reconfiguring anything.

max2play has a plugin that uses your pi's built-in wifi to create it's own network, piCorePlayer doesn't offer this option.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] picoreplayer without network
LMS TCP/IP socket to communicate with players so it needs a network IIRC even if you use LocalPlayer plugin which bypasses nertwork for playing files. I don't know pCP but if the network interface confgrued using DHCP and you have no network connection then none of the basic network parameters will be setup such as IP address of interface (even if not up), gateway/default Route and subnet mask.

My Rpi3 has the built in WiFi... I can even attach a USB WiFi adapter, but if not registered on a network, it will not play. Maybe linux works different from Windows: in Windows, if the the PC has a network adapter, even if not connected, the TCP\IP works! In linux it seems not to be the same... TCP/ip is not up if the network adapter is not connected, so no way for the LMS to start (and for the player to reach it). This is my case: I have this PiCorePlayer in a box with amplifier, speakers and batteries.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] picoreplayer without network
It is normal for a UNIX system to require an operating 127.0.0.1 address and TCP/IP stack for normal running. Windows is the same, as are 90% of general use operating systems. -Transcoded from Matt's brain by Tapatalk- -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs.

Sorry, I can not understand: why should I need a network to play files locally stored on the USB stick? Moreover everything is in the very same box: player, LMS, storage. The LMS server address of course is specified and it is the 127.0.0.1 as suggested (if I leave it blank, it wont play even if networked) but seems that if network is not UP, then TCP\IP is not avaialble, so not way for the player to reach the LMS even if running in the same box.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] picoreplayer without network
It's not really intended to be a non-networked server. For sure you will need to setup LMS to use the nomysqueezebox option. You might also need to specify the server address for squeezelite to connect to. Since pCP is expecting a network, it will take a minute or two to time out and finish the bootup. Otherwise should work fine. Hook up a monitor and keyboard to watch the startup process and see what is going on. paul-'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58858 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107995 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
