I have posted the information is the official picoplayer thread, however, just afraid someone will miss it, I decided to open another thread and will update if new information is available:
I have managed to setup my picoplayer without DHCP, that is, using a switch instead of a router OR connect my Pi directly to my PC via a LAN cable. You are welcomed to post it into your how-to if so needed. Let's assume the following network environment: Raspberry Pi: I.P.: 192.168.11.100 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.11.1 PC: I.P.: 192.168.11.200 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.11.1 1. Set your PC's fixed I.P. address first. 2. Login to your picoplayer, type "sudo su" -> ENTER to get the administrative rights 3. Type ""vi /opt/bootlocal.sh" -> ENTER to edit the boot configuration using VI text editor 15063 4. In VI, press "INSERT" key to enter edit mode 15064 5. Press "DOWN ARROW" key to go to the beginning of the last line, the one start with "mnt/.........." 6. Press "ENTER" key twice to create two blank rows 7. In the first row, type "ifconfig eth0 192.168.11.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 up" 8. In the second row, type "route add default gw 192.168.11.1 eth0" 15062 9. Press "ESC" key to exit edit mode in Vi, then type ":x" to save the changes 10. Type "filetool.sh -b" -> ENTER to permanently save the changes 15065 11. Reboot If all goes without error, your LMS should detect your picoplayer after reboot. I am wondering if there is an improvement in audio quality if I connect the Pi with my PC directly via an LAN cable. No time to test it yet. But I could definitely tell you different router sounds differently in my previous tests. ************"v1.06"************ Audio-gd DI-V2 (TE8802) 16/44.1 - Listenable but with loud continuous static sound in the background, set it to 16bit only could solve this problem. 24/48 - No problem 24/96 - Not listenable, auto upsample to 176012Hz 24/192 - Listenable but with mild continuous static sound in the background Audio-gd NFB-10SE (TE7022) 16/44.1 - Listenable but with loud continuous static sound in the background, set it to 16bit only could solve this problem. 24/48 - No problem 24/96 - No problem 24/192 - This DAC DOES NOT Support 24/192, but still plays as 96K without problem Audiophilleo 2 Totally not listenable.
