askat1988 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I am really liking this player, using on Rpi4 with 4gb ram. I want to update the Rpi firmware, what is the best way to do this? Do I need to go to a different image to do that? Can it be done while I am using Gentooplayer in ram? Sorry for maybe not using the right terminology, I am a novice in these matters.

askat1988 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Thank you so much for the quick reply. I think I understand now. I am interested in the updated Rpi4 firmware because it supposedly helps with heat issues. There is a beta about to be released that helps even more. https://www.cnx-software.com/2019/12/01/run-raspberry-pi-4-cooler-new-firmware-easy-trick/ The gentooplayer is reporting my CPU idling at 68C 😓.

askat1988 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Thank you so much for the new images. Got the RPi4 one working in ram mode. I am fairly certain the web interface 'select DAC' numbering is off by one. I was choosing 44 for the HiFi Berry Digi + Pro and that was not working. Via SSH and gp-menu route the number is 43 and that worked. On another note, I think the HIFi Berry is the one to select since it works but I have a Pi2AES which is not on the list. Would it be better to use the Pi2 DAC option? Going to donate now 🙂 morepics 1 My Setup: http://www.head-fi.org/user/blubliss Link to comment
askat1988 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I loaded the latest RPi4 build and the cpu heat issue seems to be back, was gone in the last build. Also, what settings do I have to do to make upmmpdcli work? I enable it and the status is 'started' but it's not showing up in bubbleupnp. edit: went to last build and turned on upnmpdcli and mpd, showing up now.

askat1988 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 New Rpi4 build has definitely helped temps for me, around 7-8C. But, when trying to enter ramdisk mode 4, not working, throws these errors: rsync: mkdir "/root/cache/distfiles" failed: No such file or directory (2) rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at main.c(664) [Receiver=3.1.3] wait... root 1437 0.0 0.0 8840 3196 ?

In 2.0 it works fine and I have not tried it in 2.10. Maybe my problem is the same. Almost every time I restart I have to disable and then enable upmpdcli before it shows up and I am not in RAM mode.

askat1988 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 I tried this and upnp showed up after one reboot (which sometimes does work) but not after entering RAM mode 4. I had to disable then enable to make it show up. My Setup: http://www.head-fi.org/user/blubliss Link to comment
