Hi,
I’m trying to setup a Max2Player that is capable to act as a Squeezebox Player and as well is capable to accept streamed Audio via Airplay or Bluetooth to the Player istelf (not the LMS). It should automatically switch between the respective Audio Sources.
My Setup is:
– RasperryPi 3 with wired access to the network
– Inbuilt Wirelesss is disabled
– Inbuilt Bluetooth should be used to accept Bluetooth Streams.
– Squeezebox Server resides on a different System togehther with FHEM in the Network
– In order to allow automatic Switchover, the IP of the LMS Server is entered in the „advanced Settings“
of the ShairPort Section
– Bluetooth is installed
– „Squeezelite Bluetooth Verbindungs Synchronisation“ is installed and „-B“ is configured as
command Line Parameter in Squeezelite
– „Audio-Ausgang beim Trennen wechseln“ is activated
– „Deaktiviere integriertes Audio bei RPi3“ is activated
– Pulse is used as the Sound Card in Squeezelite and in Shairport
– an iPad3 and an iPhone 5 are paired and are Green after the reconnect and
both Function eventually.
– Sound Card is a HifiBerry DAC+ Pro
– I started out with the Jessie HifiBerry Image 235 from your Webpage, updated Max2Play
first to the newest update release and recently (Today) as well to the Beta Version
– I updated Squeezelite by setting the checkbox in the advanced Squeezelite Settings
– Squeezelite, Shairport, Bluetooth are all set to AutostartIt sort of Works but not entirely stable and not very predictanbly. What are the issues I discovered:
– After booting I try to use it as a Squeezebox Player. I will only get klicking noises in sub second intervalls.
The clicking noise goes on endlessly unless i stop/start the player
– After several times pressing stop,start,stop etc. the sound will eventually come on and the player runs ok.
There are not always the same amounts of Start/Stops required.
– Using the iPhone 5 with iOS 10.1.1, it will not detect the Max2Play Player as possible AirPlay device.
It is not possible to to connect via AirPlay
– Connecting via Bluetooth works ok, but it will not stop the Squeezebox Player. I will get both Audio
signals until I stop one or the other.
– For instance to use Bluetooth i need to stop the Squeezebox player anf afterwards I need to start it again.
– On connecting the iPad3 (iOS 9.3.5) when just before the iphone was used over Bluetooth, the the connection will
only quickly come on (maybe a second).
– After „reconnect“ via the M2P Webgui, the iPad can then again be connected.
– When playing an IP TV Stream over Bluetooth, it will switch over from the Squeezebox Player to Bluetooth.
– After stoping the Stream, the Squeezebox Player will not be resumed automatically. At Times not even stop/Starting
the Player in LMS will Remedy the Situation and the Player has to be rebooted.
– Using AirPlay will automatically switch over after somewhere between 15-20 seconds. During this time, 4 to 5
klicks are audible before eventually the sound comes on via Airplay.
– After stoping Airplay it will automatically go back to the Squeezeplayer, but mostly only the subsecond clicking
is hearable. Multiple Stop/Starts will eventually bring the Squeezeplayer back.
– as well on Bluetooth or Airplay, the Audio Playback will after varying times loose the connection and will mostly
automatically resume playback. Occasionally Bluetooth will have to be reconnected.On Trying to influence the situation, I removed the IP Address of the LMS Server under „Shairport/Squeezelite automatischer Wechsel der Audioquelle“ in the „Advanced Shairport Settings“. From the on the clicking Noises stop and the Squeezebox Player is played automatically. But this as well means that there is no automatic switover anymore and one needs to swith the respective Audio Sources on and off as required.
– are my used software releases on the required and most current versions
– what can/has to be changed to make the system more reliable and predictable?Any hints are most welcome.
Regards
Philipp
