0 The Computer Audiophile Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 I haven't tried a Pi HQP server in forever, so I don't really know. Looks like the USBridge isn't listed on @Miska's site - https://www.signalyst.com/embedded-install.html? Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment

The company won't respond. 10 minutes ago, ohshitgorillas said: In the meantime, I could try to get hqplayerd working on my overpowered headless media server. I've downloaded the HQPDcontrol app, but it can't find the server. What ports does it use for discovery? If you have HQPlayer running, just add the IP address of the machine on which it's running, into the HQPDcontrol app and it will find it. The auto discovery doesn't work, as far as I know.

I did input the server IP and opened the default port of 4321 on the server's firewall but HQPDcontrol can't find anything. Edit: the port is also unblocked in the router's LAN zone Does the HQPlayer remote control app, that comes with HQP desktop, see your install? You can download it and just run the control app. Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment

I'm not using HQP Desktop, I'm using hqplayerd on a headless media server. The HQPDcontrol app doesn't see the hqplayerd installation on the media server. there's an HQPDcontrol app for iOS and there's a native HQPlayer control app that is in the install image for mac and can be installed for Windows.

I'm having a hard time finding a link to download the Windows control app. the windows control app is inside the installation file for the desktp app, you just need to select it to install or install eveyrthing and only run the control app. Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment

Let me switch to Windows and try there. It's officially called HQPlayer Client and is installed with the desktop app. Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
0 The Computer Audiophile Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 My guess is the Client won't connect either, if the other one doesn't connect, but it's worth a shot for troubleshooting. Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
0 The Computer Audiophile Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Just now, ohshitgorillas said: I assume the client won't connect either, but I have no idea where I'm even supposed to tell it where to look. I assume the drop down menu in the top left which reads "localhost" but nothing happens when I enter 10.0.0.238 into the box either. Yeah, entering the Ip and hitting enter is all you need to do if I remember correctly. Can you access the embedded install via web interface on port 8888 or without a port?

0 The Computer Audiophile Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 1 minute ago, ohshitgorillas said: I believe it's 8088 as 'netstat -tnlp | grep hqplayerd' yields: tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8088 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 814546/hqplayerd tcp6 0 0 :::8088 :::* LISTEN 814546/hqplayerd But no, I cannot access that web interface at 10.0.0.238:8088 or at 10.0.0.238. You're sure embedded is actually running? Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
0 The Computer Audiophile Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 How many network interfaces do you have installed on the server? Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
0 The Computer Audiophile Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 3 minutes ago, ohshitgorillas said: Actually, yes, I am able to find the web interface now! I can't log in with the default "hqplayer" username and "password" password, but at least it's showing a damn login page. That's progress. Can always reset the password - "hqplayerd -s username password" ohshitgorillas 1 Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment

I don't believe MoOde supports NAA, which is what HQP sends to over the network. 6 minutes ago, ohshitgorillas said: 1. Add the library. This is located in /home/atom/Dropbox/music, and is bind mounted to /srv/media/music as well, but when I type either of these into the library path, I get nothing. Did you check the log? what file format are you using? Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
0 The Computer Audiophile Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 3 minutes ago, ohshitgorillas said: So I need to install HQPlayer NAA on the USBridge? Or are there other alternatives as well? My files are mostly FLAC, with a few dsf/dff and ALAC files thrown in. The log doesn't say anything about it. I just made sure that the whole /srv/media server is readable by all users. It can scan other folders as well (e.g. if I have it scan /srv, it comes up with a single media file) but for some reason it's not finding my music. Thank you for all your help so far, by the way. HQP sends to NAA over the network. That’s it. If you have a Pi, you can install the NAA pi image and it’ll be simple. Boot from USB or mSD card. ALAC won’t work. FLAC and DSD will.

I can convert the remaining ALAC files to FLAC if I decide that I like HQPlayer enough What happens if you scan /home/atom/Dropbox/music ? The account running HQPlayerd has access to both I assume?
