Anyway, a server problem, not a Joggler problem: every player in the house was affected at the same time.

Any messages in the server log ?

I could not get a list of squeezelite output devices as the "new user", both "of" and "root" provided the list. sudo usermod -aG audio newuser That'll probably sort it. Users need to be members of certain groups to get permission to tinker with the various systems, aud...

I tried a "new user" and downloaded squeezelite. I could not get a list of squeezelite output devices as the "new user", both "of" and "root" provided the list. I have abandoned "new user" in favour of "of" Just a note: Set up; "Bettin...

Should I continue as user "of" or is it best practice to create a new user ? :? The default "of" user is in the sudoers list, so can perform superuser tasks when authenticated. So if you were being strict, yes, you could create a "squeezeplay" user with no special priv...

Breakthrough! After updating to 8.3, the pi-based LMS has been solid as a rock for over 2 days! Many thanks Ronnie, if it hadn't been for your tip about switching branches I would never been able to find that version. I'm going to hold off buying any hardware for now & see how it goes. Thanks e...

I have LMS installed and running

On the LMS tab page, scroll down to "Select Branch" and choose the Development version.
Tick the radio button, and then select manual update

@sijones Are any of the Jogglers synced together? If you have one Joggler that you use more than the others, I would like to suggest that you try roobarb!

I tried to "sudo of-install squeezeplay" but that failed. :( I made a fresh image and downloaded Raphy's squeezeplay and using the info from this link, got sound. https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?107837-Install-Squeezeplay-on-RPi3-with-full-OS-not-just-picore-or-max2play&p...

I downloaded and installed Ralphy's Squeezeplay, but can't get any audio output at the moment. I'm not familiar with this Desktop

I have just plugged in a dac. :roll: I connected a passive usb hub, added the 16gb usb stick with the image, and plugged in an old North Star Design Essensio dac; reconfigure the squeezelite settings and started playback. I had to adjust the volume slider on the screen to 100% but the dac has no sof...

I updated Squeezelite from the default Debian install, to Ralphy's version for Joggler openframe Player Model: SqueezeLite Player Type: squeezelite Firmware: v1.9.8-1317 Player IP Address: 192.168.1.101 Player MAC Address: openframe Player Model: SqueezeLite Player Type: squeezelite Firmware: v1.9.9...

Bonza !!

Just a quick install, downloaded squeezelite and set output as
using the headphone output.

Seems stable enough, though I don't have much spare time today

Thanks Boss

Here is a little guide to install Jivelite, as things are at the moment. Any suggestions and advice on how to better do it, please post. I'm a real numpty at this and often do stuff that is not required (or miss stuff that is required). :!: Is a new user required :?: Anyway, proceed at your own risk...

Well I still can't get squeezelite to show its face :? And my Jivelite on a joggler foo is really rusty :shock: But there is hope :o Curser is still on screen (but that should be fixable ;) ) https://i.postimg.cc/tTnxV4sX/jivelite-1.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/KzT18pWj/jivelite-2.jpg https://i.postimg....
