Since I installed a fresh operating system (xubuntu 16.04) and reinstalled LMS and local player, I couldn't get it to run - it was always 'not running'. The log was unhelpful, just having a start line and no more. I wasn't too bothered since I could run squeezelite separately (and stop/start it using commands I registered in the 'server power control' plugin). But it niggled.
I have found out why it didn't run. I had a space in the command line, ie ' -o hw.....' rather than '-o hw...'. I kid you not. Secondly, once running it didn't find LMS. I had to explicitly add '-s localhost:3483' to the command line. I don't know why. If you still have problems, on the 'local player' screen, you may wish to look at the bottom line, and check that the other libraries are installed (I'd previously forgotten that this was needed for local player since I'd already done it for stand-alone squeezelite). LMS 7.9 on VortexBox Midi box, Xubuntu 16.04, FLACs 16->24 bit, 44.1->192kbps. LMS plugin UPnP/DLNA Bridge to MF M1 CLiC (to A308CR amp & ESLs) & Marantz CR603 UPnP renderers. Alternatively Minimserver & Upplay to same & to upmpdcli/mpd PC renderers. Squeezelite to Meridian USB Explorer DAC to PC speakers/headphones. Wireless Xubuntu 16.04 laptop firefox/upplay or Android 'phone with Squeeze-Commander/BubbleUPnP controls LMS/Minimserver. Also a Touch with EDO, plus spare, unused. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97766 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
