Hi Quentin,
Thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately, we cannot reproduce the issue lacking a Squeezebox Touch and cannot provide help. Therefore, to ask also experts in other SB Touch related forums makes sense to me.
Using Spotify with your Squeezebox requires a Spotify Premium account. Do you have one?
Do you have access to a Raspberry Pi 2 you could use with Max2Play? If yes, install Max2Play and the same version of LMS on this Pi and test the Spotify Triode plug-in with that configuration. We have just tested the Triode Plugin on a Raspberry Pi 2 with LMS 7.9 Nightly and a Spotify Premium Account and could login and play music successfully.Maximilian from Max2Play
24. Februar 2016 at 16:02 #18706Hi Bazzzer,
Thank you for your reply.
It seems we still did not get your problem. According to your previous posts, we got the impression several times that you do not get your Wolfson board to work at all:
I’ve tried via the Wolfson board, but after some frustrating days, I can’t get it to work — way to get the Wolfson board working
Is your issue, accordingly, about how to process audio inputs with your – already correctly installed and working – Wolfson sound card?

24. Februar 2016 at 13:34 #18698Hi Quentin,
which version of LMS is installed on your Squeezebox?
For the setup of Max2Play with Raspberry Pis and ODROIDs, Spotify works with the Triode plugin en- and the LMS plugin disabled and LMS 7.8.0, 7.8 Nightly and 7.9 Nightly. If this does not work on your Squeezebox Touch, I recommend to contact Logitech or related forums to learn more about this issue. It would be great, though, if you let us know the results here as well.

24. Februar 2016 at 13:24 #18696Hi Quentin,
accordingly, you left out http in the beginning which was included in all trials before?
Great it does work now. You’re welcome.

24. Februar 2016 at 13:16 #18694Hallo [email-protected].
danke für deine Nachricht. Unser Stand ist, dass der Zugang zu Amazon Instant Video auf Raspberry Pi-Betriebssystemen mit Kodi generell deaktiviert worden ist, und zwar von Amazon selbst. Insofern könnte die Dateien, auf die wir im Max2Play-Interface zurückgreifen, nicht mehr komplett zur Verfügung stehen und die Fehlermeldung auslösen, die du beschreibst.

24. Februar 2016 at 13:03 #18693Hallo an alle,
zu 1.) Was passiert, wenn ihr den SBS-Start übertrieben spät startet, beispielsweise nach 120 Sekunden? Welche Internetverbindung nutzt ihr? LAN oder WLAN?
zu 2.) Danke für den Hinweis, die Tastatur schauen wir uns mal an.
zu 3.) Worum handelt es sich beim IQaudIO AMP-Clones? Bei den Soundkarten, die wir mit Max2Play ausdrücklich unterstützen, funktioniert die Ausgabe der Visualisierung nach Eingabe des Parameters wie gewünscht (natürlich nach mehrmaligem Tippen auf den Displaybereich oberhalb der Wiedergabesteuerung, um die Visualisierungen durchzuschalten).Maximilian von Max2Play
24. Februar 2016 at 12:51 #18692Hi Chief_BSA,
have you tried out to activate Kimmo’s and Triode’s plugin „DSDPlayer“ which is included in LMS 7.9 Nightly?
Regards
Maximilian from Max2Play24. Februar 2016 at 12:28 #18691Hi m.max2play,
you can switch the display on and off in the „Rpi Display“ plugin of Max2Play very easily. With setting another port for Kodi like you described, it is a possible workaround. Until today, we have not come across a really good solution for this problem. If anyone knows one, let us know.
The plugin XSqueeze for Kodi makes sense if you use Kodi primarily.

24. Februar 2016 at 12:21 #18690Hallo m.max2play,
Thank you for your post. It seems like your questions is very similar to your posts in another thread. Therefore, let’s continue the discussion there from now on.

23. Februar 2016 at 14:27 #18657Which path appears after hitting „Show Network Devices“? Does your NAS show up there and if yes, did you use this path to mount the NAS on your Pi?
23. Februar 2016 at 14:13 #18654Hi Bart,
first, I would like to show you our Multiroom Audio Configurator which might help you with your plans as well.
If I understand, correctly, you want to setup the system in three rooms: home cinema, bathroom and kitchen.
Every Pi driven by Max2Play is capable of streaming audio to several other Pis serving as clients. One solution is to name each Pi after the room and to set up the Logitech Media Server (LMS or Squeezebox Server)on the Pi „Home Cinema“ and launch the corresponding Squeezelite Players on the „Bathroom“ and „Kitchen“ Pis. In the interface of the LMS, those players appear in the top right corner in a dropdown menu. From there, you can control the playback separately or synchronized for each room.I am not sure at the moment how your existing hardware is connected. Do you already have speakers in your kitchen and bathroom connected to your amplifier? What I want to point out is: There is no need to put a Pi in each room if you have speakers in place receiving audio signals from your cinema amplifier. In that case, you could place two Pis in your home cinema, let’s say one „Kitchen“ Pi with the 7″ touch display running the LMS and the Squeezelite Player and one „Bathroom“ Pi with the second Squeezelite Player, each with an HiFiBerry DAC+ or an IQaudIO Pi-DAC+ connected to the RCA inputs of your amplifier. The 7″ touch display could be used to control all Squeezelite Players via Jivelite (visualization for Squeezelite Players). But again, I am not sure at this point, we might have still clear up things.

Thank you for your question.
If you entered
John Smith,bananas,sec-ntlm,iocharset=utf8literally, please tryname=John Smith,password=bananas,sec=ntlm,iocharset=utf8.You could also try to look up the IP address of your NAS in your network and replace
NAS-BE-33-DEwith it.Maximilian from Max2Play
23. Februar 2016 at 13:06 #18650Hi Bazzzer,
Thank you for your reply.
You wrote
I am not using the old squeezeplug, I am using the OLD, ORIGINAL Wolfson board!
and
The version of Max2Play is 2.27 – the latest squeezeplug version.
Heiner was not referring to your hardware, but to the Max2Play image you use. We recommend to retry the set up of your Wolfson sound card with the latest Raspberry Pi Default Image available instead of continue with the Squeezeplug Image which indeed has some not updated components, e.g. Kernel and certain packages. To be more precise: If your Image comes with the Squeezeplug logo on the browser interface, please switch over to the default image and choose „Wolfson/Cirrus Logic sound card“ from the list at „Raspberry Settings“.

23. Februar 2016 at 12:35 #18648Hello tparvais,
Thank you for your question. It is not possible for us to test and support every USB DAC available and we have come across some models causing problems. Two USB DACs I can recommend for Max2Play is the Logilink 7.1 and the X-Fi USB DAC.

23. Februar 2016 at 12:27 #18647Hi Toni,
could you please describe more precisely which image you downloaded and how you installed it on your microSD card? Usually, you can enter the browser interface of Max2Play with
http://max2play/. Did you use two „//“ in front of max2play or is it a typo in your first post?Maximilian from Max2Play
23. Februar 2016 at 12:09 #18646Hi just_get and team,
Thank you for sharing this detailled manual with the Max2Play community.
In addition, I would like to show you our new Multiroom Audio Configurator focussing on the hardware which is approrpiate for Multiroom Audio Setups based on Max2Play.

23. Februar 2016 at 11:13 #18643Hi Simon,
we use the Logilink WiFi dongle we offer in our shop as well. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee every WiFi dongle is fully compatible with our Accesspoint solution because of the high number of different models that we would have to buy and test.

22. Februar 2016 at 18:06 #18633Hallo Marcel,
danke für deine Updates.
Prüfe bitte noch folgende Punkte:
1. Ist beim Squeezebox Server auf dem Raspberry Pi 2 noch das „Autostart“-Häkchen angewählt? Wenn ja, bitte entfernen, da sonst nach jedem Neustart zwei SBS in deinem Netzwerk laufen. Starte den Squeezelite Player auf dem Pi neu, er sollte sich dann selbstständig einen SBS im Netzwerk suchen und somit nur deine Diskstation finden.
2. Wenn das nicht klappt, übergib dem Player in den erweiterten Optionen den Parameter-s [IP-Adresse/Name]bzw.-s Diskstation, um ihm deine Diskstation aufzudrücken.
3. Wenn das nicht klappt, schalte einmal testweise die Firewall aus und wiederhole vorherige Schritte. Wenn es dann geht, wissen wir, woran es liegt. Leider können wir dir nicht sagen, welche einzelnen Ports du freigeben musst, um den SBS reibungslos betreiben zu können. Wenn du andernorts auf Ergebnisse stößt, berichte uns und anderen Nutzern gerne hier davon.Maximilian von Max2Play
22. Februar 2016 at 17:56 #18632Hi m.max2play,
Thank you for your detailled information.
Indeed, running Kodi and Squeezelite/Jivelite does work with different sound outputs, but not when displayed on the same screen like you described. We will discuss your workarounds and the options to improve the functionality of Max2Play related to this use case.

22. Februar 2016 at 17:42 #18629Hi all,
we have checked the accesspoint feature of Max2Play at least two times since Alex has run into problems with it and now again in reaction to gapmedia. If we set up accesspoint on a Raspberry Pi, the smartphone finds the Pi’s WiFi network and can successfully connect to it, both in „Standalone“-mode (without internet) and out „Standalone“ (with internet through the Pi’s LAN connection).
We use dnsmasq to provide IP addresses to each device trying to hook into the Pi’s own WiFi network. On our test devices, this service starts automatically as expected without adding the code of noop.Due to the amount of information in this thread, it is very hard for us to reveal the reasons causing Accesspoint to fail on your devices. Cool thing that noops lines of code help you out for the moment.

22. Februar 2016 at 11:39 #18625Hallo Karl,
wir können dieses Problem leider nicht nachvollziehen. Sowohl das Image, das wir aktuell bei 7″ Bundle-Bestellungen versenden als auch das Image in unserem Downloadbereich (2.23) funktionieren auf unseren Testgeräten wie gewünscht. Wir werden das Image bald in einer aktuelleren Version anbieten und hoffen, das Problem damit zu erfassen.
Ist dir etwas Ungewöhnliches bei der Installation des ersten Images im Vergleich zum zweiten aufgefallen?

18. Februar 2016 at 15:09 #18580Hi mbricogn,
Thank you for your post.
Since there exist so many differenz USB DACs, it is impossible to do tests with each of them. Accordingly, we cannot tell you if the USB DAC you mentioned would work with Max2Play. However, we have made good experiences with the Logilink 7.1 and X-Fi USB-DACs so far.

18. Februar 2016 at 14:51 #18575Hi Pietka77,
have you already come across this topic? It is also about the screen resolution and Jivelite.

18. Februar 2016 at 14:43 #18574Hallo gerhardc,
diese Funktion ist erst ab Version 2.25 von Max2Play verfügbar und hängt mit der Expandierung des Dateisystems zusammen. Solange Max2Play in einer Version vor 2.24 expandiert wird, wird keine dritte, vom Schreibschutz ausgenommene Partition angelegt. Wenn kein aktuelles Image verwendet wird, empfehle ich daher erst zu updaten und dann zu expandieren.
Maximilian von Max2Play
16. Februar 2016 at 14:39 #18516Hallo pille,
vielen Dank für dein Feedback.
Welches Image und welche Pi-Version benutzt du? Mit der Installation des YMPD-Player meinst du das Einbinden des MPD Plugins oder das Öffnen des YMPD-Webinterfaces?
Wir werden versuchen, deinen Fehler mit diesen Informationen nachzustellen und nach Lösungen zu suchen.
Maximilian von Max2Play
16. Februar 2016 at 14:25 #18515Hi florent,
we have no experiencs with piFM and can’t offer any solutions to you. I recommend to ask this question in a forum dedicated to piFM and post the results here as well for other users of Max2Play. That would be great!
