Hi, Ronnie. I think I recall that you claimed in some recent post to
have a short attention span. I wonder if we could play a round of
attention span golf, just to see who's score is lower!

Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that I think I read through it, but
I've been known to miss crucial details in that process.

In any case, I was stuck about 5% of the way through the page, where he
says, "Now to start Squeezelite I had to run (ip address is the address
of the LMS server): 
sudo /usr/bin/squeezelite-armv6hf -o front:CARD=Set,DEV=0 -s 192.168.2.4
And it worked!"

I couldn't get to the point where I could say it worked, so I didn't see
a way to proceed with the rest.

Now that I can, I'm interested. I've always used the -z parameter,
because that way I can stop and start squeezelite over ssh. Having it
run as a service achieves the same thing. I'm just curious about the
reasons for avoiding -z. I've always run it that way. That's a bit like
saying, "I've always enjoyed my last cigarette of the day after I go to
bed, and I don't see any reason to stop now."

In other words, I'm not doubting that there are reasons for not wanting
to daemonize squeezelite, I'd just like to know what they are.



LMS 8 nightly; 3 Squeezelite players connected by powerline ethernet; 5
wireless players connected via Airplay Bridge; 1 SqueezeAmp player
no high-end or esoteric audio gear
1 Squeezebox Radio (upgraded UE Smart Radio) now mostly retired
