Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

I usually operate the Touch with the remote (it's the + key)! Learn something new each day!

Thanks.

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

On the Touch it's possible to rearrange and edit the menus ... is there any way to do this on SqueezePlay?

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

I might get a chance to switch the network settings later .... on 6 the Joggler had real problems keeping the connection. On 8 it's now been running flawlessly for 2 hours (playing the excellent Radio Paradise, via stereo out to an old Sony hifi - quality is more than acceptable for my tired old ear...

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

Thanks! A brief explanation: for testing purposes, I had to set up a 2nd SSID on my router using WPA. The Joggler is probably at the extreme end of the router broadcast range .... having major problems with network connectivity. Could be down to splitting the network into 2 SSIDs ? However, before a...

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

I just received my new Joggler! Installed SqpOS on a usb - booted! Excellent - I'm impressed. Thanks to all for the work creating this. However, I have a couple of issues .... 1. The network is set for WPA. I'd really like to use an open network (I know ...(. I guess this involves editing the interf...

Re: SqueezePlay for Joggler (Native, Ubuntu & sqpOS)

I am currently running a Joggler with the Squeezplay OS (internal flash) and very pleased with it. I would like to use another Joggler with Squeezeplay but need it to connect to some Bluetooth speakers. Is this possible using one of the Links distros? Sorry if this is covered somewhere in the forum...

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

Which version of LMS is installed in SqpOS ?

Is it possible to specify a particular version? or is it a question of running an update from the command line?

(and does the OS use dpkg ?)

Re: 24/96 Squeezeplay and External USB DAC

Thanks - searching for usb soundcard gives 156 matches - most of which refer to 'soundcard' without any actual card details! I was hoping someone who has a cheapo working reliably could give the details - apart from the Behringer most of the refs. seem to be hit'n'miss. Suppose it's a case of just t...

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

Thanks - very helpful. I'm used to using winscp to copy and edit files - rather than the nano, vi editors - I find I can do this if I have root user access. I know it's 'dangerous'! I never worked out how to use winscp as a normal user - keep getting 'permission denied' .... The Joggler should arriv...

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

Thanks! Sadly I'm none the wiser ... where does the squeezelite.sh file come from? I thought it was just a case of downloading the binary to a dir and then running a command line? I think getting the Joggler up and running is going to be a bit more wrangling than I expected! Isn't there a root login?

Re: 24/96 Squeezeplay and External USB DAC

I see that many users have a usb soundcard to replace the audio out.

Are there any recommended cards - not more than 20 GBP - which work well?

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

Can some kind person guide me through the steps to install and use Squeezelite on the SqpOS? I use squeezelite on a Pi and a Cubieboard, so I'm familiar with the general procedure. 1. Let's assume I have installed squeezelite. Where should I put the command for squeezelite so it starts on boot but a...

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

The last time I used squeezeplug on the Pi, I think I had to enter the username 'guest' and no password in the setup page. You can't just leave both blank.

I usually end up adding the mount manually, however

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

If the SMB mounting doesn't work with the USB in the router is there a free USB on the cubieboard. Should be easy enough enable Samba on there so you can access from other machines as well. Accessing the Huawei usb is done via cifs mount. I came across this post: http://www.jogglerwiki.com/forum/vi...

Thanks for the reply! I'll probably go the interfaces edit route - I've done this on several debians and fedora - so I think I should know what I'm doing - famous last words! I have a Huawei 532 - it works brilliantly as a file store - have LMS currently on a Cubieboard which runs Fedora 18. I guess...

Re: SqueezePlay OS for Joggler

I'm about to get a Joggler. I really only want this for Squeezeplay. However, reading through the install notes, I see that the setup requires WPA. I have an open network (yes, I know, but that's how it is!) - all my existing devices connect without issue. Am I going to have problems connecting if I...
