    I purchased a $20 TP-link router/L2 switch that I will use, and leave at the Hunt camp if I require access the LMS/M2P via the ethernet port. This will likely be the easiest path forward. In the future I may purchase the Starlink ethernet dongle which will allow for wired ethernet. My plan is to leave both the wifi and ethernet port on the M2P as DHCP clients, and I will ensure the Starlink router is off if I am using the TP-Link router to access the M2P. Therefore only one port will be up at any given time. That should allow me to access the node/and or re-image the SD card if something goes awry in the future. In normal operation the M2P wifi will be up and the wired ethernet port will be down. While i appreciate the flexibility of WiFi, in general I am not a huge fan , and have installed 6 ethernet switches throughout my primary dwelling and only use wifi for smart phones, tabs and home NEST products etc.

    Thanks for your help

    Not sure I understand, would this be added to the M2P client mount, or the TrueNAS server files system ACL?

    Thanks,

    I have done something similar with a couple of pi’s. I have several old slimdevices SB’s, Radio’s of various vintages and types still in circulation as well as several max2play pi’s running squeezelite. The SB radios are in the bathrooms and home gym, the rest of the squeezebox’s are co-located with the family room stereo and basement home theatre. However in my rear porch and kitchen I have wall mount and ceiling mount speakers and no pratical spot for a stereo system. For those two installations I ran the speaker wire back down to the basement to a 19″ rack. I built two pi’s and installed them in two hifiBerry metal cases with the XLR DAC pro variant HAT’s. They plug directly into separate 2 chan. amps. Of course Max2play is running on all the pi’s , and I use the volume control on the squeezelite S/W via the material skin URL on my phone to control all the players and the volume per player. I often have the porch, family room and kitchen sync’d together but not always. The Crown amps are very powerful , several hundred watts per channel, so I set the gain on the amps to 50%, to help avoid accidents. Everything works very well. I don’t see any issue co-locating all the Pi’s with a 8 channel amp as you mentioned. I did have a pi4 running as the LMS server for a while and it worked great with a 90k track library and 8-10 players. I have since moved the LMS to a jail in a FreeNAS server which also hosts my music library.

    Sorry for hijacking this thread. Does MAX2play SAMBAshares support SMBv1 ?

    Been running M2P on a new Pi4 w/4G RAM installed in a FLirc case for 2 days now. Music is accessed via cifs on a freenas host. Initial scan of 90K libarary was around 80 minutes VS 4 hours on the Pi3. Flirc case is keeping temps down via passive cooling, nothing else to report other than two thumsb up! Thanks guys!

    Ok disabling Full tech search seemed to work. The scan did not fail and I can reliably access the LMS after a start and stop of the LMS process .

    Thanks !

    After reviewing the debug again, it looks like perl revision issue?

    Please see log output below. BTW I have been disscusing another issue with Michael Herger over on the LMS forum inregards to scans terminating unexpectedly. He mentioned a „nonindexed parameter“ being added recently, and asked if i had downgraded without wiping the database. Could these issues be related?

    Thanks,

    I would like to comply, but I can’t get to the LMS log files, at least not directly via LMS, when the server won’t respond to the 9000 port call.

    Now that we have the option for more RAM along with the faster CPU with the Pi4’s has anyone investigated at what size LMS libary we should start looking at the 2G or 4G model? Will the OS allow the LMS database to utilize the additional RAM effectively?

    I am approaching 90k tracks stored on a remote FREENAS file system, so I am also interested in the faster network speed during file scan’s etc.

    Thanks

    Understood, In general, under normal operating circumstances only one LMS is up and operational, the 2nd M2P is up, but the LMS is stopped. With no sarcasm or complaining implied, I have found the M2P/LMS to be less than reliable over the past year or so, therefore I have a second unit on backup. If the primary unit fails, I start the the 2nd LMS migrate the players, and rebuild the primary when I have the time.

    Here are some of the failed scan results. Again, a second identical unit has no issues completing a scan onthe same files. I will run a a scan on the „working“ unit tomorrow and post the results for comparison.

    Hi I am back, had some family issues to take care of the past few weeks. I rebuilt the problematic Pi again yesterday and I am still seeing terminated media scans. I am running another scan now, will post the log’s in a couple of hours.

    Both Pi’s are now running M2P 2.46 with LMS 7.9.2 – 1529332109 . both Pi’s mount the same NAS file system with same userid/password. One scan’s perfectly, the other has the media scan termination notice. I have notice it is now failing after approx 65k tracks (out of 77k) instead of at 55K reportly earlier. I may try a new micro SIM card over the weekend as well, as they can sometimes be at the root of all evil.

    Thanks

    Hi, i always use the IP address of the node to access the node. Is there any reason why it should not work with ip address vs the host name?

    Thanks for your help,

    Looks like there might be a bigger issue, as I am experiencing the same symptoms. I can access LMS via port 9000 but not max2play directly. I did try restarting apache with no success. see below
