Raspberry Pi 3 Modell B
IQaudIO DigiAmp+
Raspberry Pi 7“ Touch Display
(this bundle:
https://shop.max2play.com/de/raspberry-pi-bundle-7-display-iqaudio.html,
newest version, arrived yesterday).
Max2Play shows version 2.42.Created a mountpoint (CFIS) for the music folder (all Apple Lossless files) on my Synology NAS (DS116). Created a Logictech Mediaserver on the Pi (Nightly 7.9.1).
The Pi is connected to the network via Ethernet/LAN, the Synology as well.
When I start playing music in Squeezelite, very often it plays only a few seconds of the track, then there is no sound anymore. When I restart the track, it plays these few seconds again, and then again no sound anymore.
In addition to that: Very short lapses/dropouts during playback (even when it manages to play a whole track or album).
I hope you can help! 🙂
Hi Mohammad
Hardware /Software
Player 1 : Pi 3B / Justboom Dac – Max2play (Justboom) 2.4.2 / Squeezelite (wifi)Player 2 : Pi 3B / Allo Kali + Piano2.1 – Max2Play (Allo) 2.4.2 / Squeezelite (tried both wifi & ethernet) / Squeeze Server 7.9 nightly – music on USB SSD.
Player 3 : MacPro 2 / Squeezeplay ( ethernet ) this plays fine.
Player 4 : iPad / iPeng (wifi) this plays fine.
Remote server 1 : Player 2 above
Remote server 2 : MacPro 1 / LMS 7.7.5 then updated to 7.9.1 – music on internal SSD.
In use :
Players 3 & 4 always work, whether connected to server 1 or 2.
The Pi players only work with directly connected SSD, with either remote server (Pi or MacPro) tracks play for a couple of seconds then stop, try again same behaviour.
Hope you can help 🙂
Hi all,
Have you tried to add -s [server] [:port] in the commandline settings of Squeezelite Audio player page ?, this command is used to Connect to specified server, otherwise it will use autodiscovery to find the server.And we recommend you to use only ONE LMS in the setup.
Could you please send us the debug info for each Squeezelite and Squeezebox server, you can find it on the bottom of the web-interface page.
Best Regards,
Mohammad Mbydeenno, but just format as fat32 and master boot record and then use etcher or what ever you used previously… or buy another SD card if you want to keep your existing card.
Once you get the card written, just pop it in the pi, start it up and then use Fing or similar to get the Pi’s address, pop that in your web browser. Go to squeezelite page, select your DAC and restart Squeezelite… now go to wifi page put in your network details and switch on Pi wifi if using that and restart… restart Pi and probably good idea to restart your LMS server at this point… and that should be you. At the bottom the PiCorePlayer page there are some additional tabs – there is an advanced one that gives access to many more features and lets you add shairport if you need it. You can also add LMS and if you want to play with the DSP filters you can access those on the Squeezelite page.
Main thing though is my players now work fine over wifi… I suspect there is a bug in Max2Play that was causing our problem. I also suspect that the driver for my Allo Piano 2.1 DAC isn’t working correctly in 2.0 mode and is why I’m now getting the bass that was missing.
Good luck… oh there is a really helpful forum for PiCore there is a link on web interface 🙂
The reason is simple – PiCore Player just works – Max2Play doesn’t.
I wasted a week trying then finally switched. I and others asked for help with this same problem – the solution was to move to PiCore Player.
Perhaps you should try and solve the problem as there must be a bug…
