luisma Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 @antonellocaroli Hi Antonello, the last 4.19.94 kernel when was it released? 2020-03-02? any way I could go back to another kernel 5.2.21.rt13 for example? or earlier 4.19? Link to comment
luisma Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 On the web interface the Software Install / Remove / Update doesn't do anything for me, x86 last image installed. I was able to update using the console gp-menu option, just reporting back, running this on a dual core celeron minipc Link to comment
luisma Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 @antonellocaroli Never mind with the kernel, it works with the last 4.19, so for now is all good The web interface software install / remove issue is failing on low cpu (celerons) but works "sometimes" on core i7, I am using the gp-menu anyways so this is not important, just FYI The alsa options if there is a description on the differences that would be great Thank you Link to comment

He's not showing you the options? If so you have to wait...those options do a search for installed software and those not installed...so it takes a long time...in the future will be added a bar that indicates the execution time, but this depends on who keeps server-script... https://github.com/bugy/script-server/issues/281 GentooPlayer home Facebook Documentation Link to comment

Airplay is a limited protocol\codec, so its best to use Upnp where that is available. Thank you all very much! I own an iPad and an old mac mini but I do not use AirPlay so for now "SpS" is not something I need but it's good to know about this option!!

bipet Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Hi @antonellocaroli I have just put together a new rpi4 4gb and installed gentooplayer, i had a look at Christmas previously and coming back now all the improvements in the web interface look great. Thank you. I have a few quick questions, I use the rpi as a roonbridge, I have switched everything else off apart from the web interface. I have updated. I am using the rpi as a streamer to a Arcam irDACII via USB, so I have set USB-DAC via ethernet, I am upscaling in Roon to a maximum of 384kHz PCM. I also set Ram System -Mode 4, but I was not sure if that was worth doing or not? Any thoughts? The rpi4 has 4gb of ram. I will leave it on all the time. My main question is around the Kernels, I am not sure which to select, obviously there is 1 - 20, which is the best to go for for the rpi4 4gb used as a streamer? Thank you. Link to comment

How did you set up shairport-sync? if you have not configured it via web interface and left the default port, use the same port as the web interface.

shahed99 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I can't login to gentooplayer I booted from xfce4 and the graphical GUI asks for username and password. I tried "root" for username and "gentooplayer" for password. Unable to login. Then I went to "http://gentooplayer-s64:5000/" on my browser. Didn't work. I tried to SSH: "ssh root@ip-gentooplayer ". Didn't work. I don't know the IP address. Any help? Link to comment
