cpcat Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 That is a good suggestion to try. I can’t remember for sure whether I did sudo nano or just nano. The other thing I considered is that in the original instruction link Miska provided, the person who provided the link purged Netplan first -before editing the network file. I was afraid to do that. Do you think this (hostname recognition) is critical to do without Avahi? It’s working now and I sort of just want to leave it alone. 😊 QNAP NAS w/minimserver, iBuypower i7 13700kf, RTXa5000 24g GPU, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS minimal server, HQPe v5 x64 avx2, HQPDcontrol4, HQPlayer Client iOS, mconnect playerHD, JplayiOS, Daphile on Asus PN-51-s1 (AMD 5700u) in Akasa fanless case, Snakeoil OS NAA/NAA image on Fitlet2 , Lampizator Big 7 MKII Balanced, Pass XVR1, Pass X5, Pass XA 100.5’s, PSB Stratus Gold(i)’s, Vandersteen 2wq’s.

Jud Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 You almost certainly didn't use sudo, which you have to do if you want to be able to save config file changes. That's usually safer than su to root. cpcat 1 One never knows, do one? - Fats Waller The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious.

Usually you would run it as root, for example through sudo. And then remember to restart hqplayerd service for the change to take effect.

The library is located on /home/my-name/music and on an external drive connected via USB. 124 Posted just now I am sure @Miska will comment, but for embedded (not HqpOS) to access a local library I found I needed to create a new directory in a root folder like /music - then you have to use chown command with root privileges to change ownership from root to your username, then move your library to that directory so hqplayer can access it. And-if is on a USB you can try running /media from the library tab. I have heard that this should work but can’t say I have done it with embedded.

The hardest thing for me was sharing the /music folder and making it visible on the local network so I could easily access/move files to it. I used Samba for this, so now whenever I add to my library I can easily update all locations-NAS, local on Daphile PC, and local on hqplayer embedded PC. I’m sure there are other ways to do it, but I like using windows file explorer and this worked for me.
