I suspect his rPi4 has a USB drive connected to it that holds his music library (that's what I do). And this rPi4 is connected to his router and on 24/7. if an rPi is running LMS, one should NOT simply turn off the power to that rPi. That *could* cause corruption to the LMS database/cache, SD card, etc. If one is turning off the rPi running LMS, one should do a controlled shutdown (go to piCorePlayer main page and select the "shutdown" menu item. On the other hand, an rPi running only squeezelite (not LMS), one can simply turn off the power. So he has this "squeezelite only" rPi connected with all his audio equipment, and it sounds like he has a master switch to turn off power to all this kit. p.s. everyone running LMS on an rPi is using the rPi to access a music library. That music library could be on a USB stick or drive connected to the rPi itself, or could be a music library on a NAS that is mapped to the rPi. *Home:* Pi4B-8GB/pCP8.2.x/4TB>LMS 8.3.x>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* rPi4B-4GB/pCP8.2.x/4TB>LMS 8.3.x>Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (Radio WIFI) *Office:* Win11(64)>foobar2000 *The Wild: *rPi3B+/pCP7.x/4TB>LMS 8.1.x>hifiberry Dac+Pro (LMS & Squeezelite) *Controllers:* iPhone14Pro & iPadAir5 (iPeng), CONTROLLER, Material Skin, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) *Files:* -Ripping-: dBpoweramp > FLAC; -Post-rip-: mp3tag, PerfectTunes, TuneFusion; -Streaming:- Spotify ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=117271 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
