Hi,
squeezelite , soundcard :default-snd_rpi_hifiberry_amp , powersupply 15V/4A
i have no clue why because the radio station is now available at 128kbps and all works well .
only 96kbps dous not play.3. Dezember 2016 at 14:17 #24525HI,
did anyone notice that if you use more than 3 multisqueeze instances that instance 0 and instance 3 seem to be the same player but on a difirent output device.
if you change music or volume on instance 0 instance 3 folows the changes also.
i have tryed to change the 4 th instance to the default bcm soundcard and add a 5th instance with the same soundcard options that i wanted for the 4th instance and then again instance 0 and instance 3 seem to be the same player and instance 4 dous what it needs to do correctly.even after updating all to Version 2.38 for Raspberry PI 3 the same strange link between instance 0 and 3 exists.
also after a few hours of continuos playing a network stream the sound plays double with a minor time delay on instance 0 and 3
no problems on instance 1 , 2 and 4 .all tips are welcome.
P.S. in prevous post a little type error:
„type the command sudo nano asound.config (this opens the file in an editor)“
correct =
*install the multisqueeze plugin.
set in mediaplayer squeezelite any soundcard exept something from the logilink usb card
i used “equal – equal” (save)
* desactivate autostart squeezelite (save)
*now use a terminal program like “putty” to get acces to your raspberry pi.
*login as pi with password raspberry
type the command cd ..
type the command cd ..
type the command cd etc
type the command sudo nano asound.conf (this opens the file in an editor)*just paste the next few lines under the existing text

}if you want you can change the names frontx centerx backx and surroundx to whatever you want (exept to back because this is seen as a command, just ad an x to be sure)
*save the asound.conf file
reboot
and magicaly the 4 names of the outputs are selectable in your multisqueeze player options.23. September 2016 at 19:03 #23175Hi,
Thanks for noticing.
I just recieved more logilink 7.1 usb soundcards 🙂 Lets test how many card can function together.

14. September 2016 at 1:37 #23004Hi,
isnt there a way of turning a raspberry pi and an usb soundcard with line in into a device that streams the audio to the network so you can acces that audiostream by entering the url in to the squeezebox server?14. September 2016 at 0:53 #23003Hi,
after search and search , try and error for a few days
i have worked out a super easy way to use all 4 outputs of the logilink 7.1 usb soundcard.
how to:
*install the multisqueeze plugin.
set in mediaplayer squeezelite any soundcard exept something from the logilink usb card
i used „equal – equal“ (save)
* desactivate autostart squeezelite (save)
*now use a terminal program like „putty“ to get acces to your raspberry pi.
*login as pi with password raspberry
type the command cd ..
type the command cd ..
type the command cd etc
type the command sudo nano asound.config (this opens the file in an editor)*just paste the next few lines under the existing text

*save the asound.conf file
reboot
and magicaly the 4 names of the outputs are selectable in your multisqueeze player options.* et voila you have a multiroom system for 4 rooms with 1 pi and a 25$ usb soundcard.
isn’t that great.i would say well done for a noob who didn’t know wat alsa was a few days ago.
