nbpf Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Antonello, FYI: with the cpufreq reduced to 1000MHz, the sdramfreq requced to 400MHz, HDMI switched off and the USB bus powered off, an RPi 3B+ hosting an Allo DigiOne Signature and running only mpd and upmpdcli under GenTooPlayer requires 0.22-0.24A under load (replay of 24bits/48KHz files). I have added "dtparam=audio=off" to /boot/config.txt as I do not need the internal audio of the RPi. Thanks for providing GenTooPlayer! Link to comment
franz159 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Question on Squeezelite-R2 and DSD Using the DSDPlayer plugin on LMS (version 7.9.2) and Squeezelite-R2 on Gentooplayer configured as follows: ie /etc/conf.d/squeezelite-R2 SL_OPTS="-C 1 -D :u32be -o hw:CARD=Control,DEV=0 -r 44100-384000 -b 2080:3528 -n GentooPlayer-R2 -m 00:e0:4s:78:d1:47" The Dac is a Khadas Tone Board: Card 0, ID `Control', name `Khadas Tone Control' Device 0, ID `USB Audio', name `USB Audio', 1 subdevices (1 available) 2 channels, sampling rate 44100..768000 Hz Sample formats: S16_LE, S32_LE, SPECIAL, DSD_U32_BE Buffer size range from 16 to 262144 Period size range from 8 to 131072 Subdevice 0, name `subdevice #0' I believe in this case DOP is used, correct? There is no resample whatsoever of DSD source files on the LMS server side, correct? Asking simply because I can get VERY good results up to and including DSD256, with optimal audio quality!!!

DomieMic65 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 it seems that whenever I reboot the rpi4 the local library gets lost.. when I rescan I get this: I removed the mount with this command " rm -r /mnt/samba/* " , remount again my NAS folder and rebuild the library. Again after reboot music folders are lost. It sees the mount folder but not the subfolders! I have enabled mount at boot of course! How can I completely reset the local library including cache etc., in order to make it build again? An additional info: when I flashed the 2.10 image I tried to load the backup I had from my previous setup, to see if I could avoid setting everything from the beginning, but the only thing that seemed to be set was LMS enabled. Nothing else. I do not know if I explain it correctly. Any way I having LMS enabled ( I use rpi4 only for LMS) I went on with the setup and everything went on very well and with out problems until I reboot the rpi4. Any idea what might be wrong?

mnuno10 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Hi, I’m testing gentooplayer to stream Tidal. To do so I enable only MPD and upMPDcli and use Linn app to login/navigate/play Tidal. The user interface for Tidal is good and the sound quality also...in my opinion superior to Roon server and BubbleUPnp OpenHome on the same machine. I have a doubt, Linn app shows for all songs “44hz 320kbps”. It is streaming in lossless quality or only mp3? Also there is some documentation that explain differences between kernels, profiles and RamSystems? Thank you in advance. Link to comment

Yes, it looks like he's using MP3s. but the thing that's not clear to me, the linn app only works by enabling mpd and upmpdcli? Strange, I thought it didn't work, I was pretty sure linn needed bubble... try doing echo "tidalquality = lossless" >> /etc/upmpdcli.conf and restart upmpdcli upmrestart GentooPlayer home Facebook Documentation Link to comment
