There are some regular users of these forums who use DietPi, but since
they haven't chimed in yet, I'll try to help. This is what works for me
on another Debian-based distro. First of all, go to this page:

http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=8.3

Find the link there for "Debian Installer Package (ARM)".  At the moment
it's
http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/8.3/lms/23526b093d880ef93fa71ff2480496e8c5948c37/logitechmediaserver_8.3.0~1649774106_arm.deb
but that will change.

To download it, I cd to the directory where I want it to download and
then use this command (using the above url, which may need to be
updated):


Code:
--------------------
    wget -nc -nd 
http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/8.3/lms/23526b093d880ef93fa71ff2480496e8c5948c37/logitechmediaserver_8.3.0~1649774106_arm.deb
--------------------


(The -nc option tells wget not to overwrite an existing file, while the
-nd tells it not to recreate the original directory structure.)

Then this to install (using the package name from the above url, which
may need to be updated):


Code:
--------------------
    sudo dpkg -i logitechmediaserver_8.3.0~1649774106_arm.deb
--------------------


It is likely that errors will be reported. In that case (and frankly, I
would do this step even if no errors are reported), do this:


Code:
--------------------
    sudo apt-get install -f
--------------------


That should correct any dependency issues. If luck is on your side, it
might  get LMS running for you. If not, wait for actual DietPi users to
correct me!


In your original post, you also mentioned this:

I think so. If LMS sees that the music library has disappeared, you will
probably have to re-scan before you can use it again. I think your best
bet would be to set up cron jobs to stop LMS shortly before midnight and
start it shortly after 6:00.



LMS 8 nightly running on Raspberry Pi OS. Mostly virtual players,
occasionally with SB Radio, Boom or Classic.
