However, audio is bad (stutters) with the BBC Sounds plug-in, but works fine for Global, Spotify, my ripped music, etc. BBC Sounds also works fine on the SB Radio, so issue is specific to the Joggler.

Anyone got any suggestions? I believe the stream needs transcoding from the 48Khz sampling rate and I have checked that LAME is installed and the settings confirm all OK.

• I am not on the most recent Joggler build (one from the end of last year) so can't vouch for that

• I am only the Joggler's internal speaker; if you're using using something other than that you may want to increase the bit rate of the transcoding if you can hear a benefit to it

Hi - I had this exact issue and the solution for me was to set the transcoding for the joggler (see this post: viewtopic.php?p=33365#p33365). A couple of caveats though:

• I am not on the most recent Joggler build (one from the end of last year) so can't vouch for that

• I am only the Joggler's internal speaker; if you're using using something other than that you may want to increase the bit rate of the transcoding if you can hear a benefit to it

The instructions to install the drivers are at https://github.com/morrownr/8821cu-20210916 but I am a Linux numpty and have struggled at the first step and am hoping someone can help!

The command below fails because it can't find the headers - "Unable to locate package - linux-headers-5.10.176op". Is it possible to solve this?

Code: Select all

sudo apt install -y linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential bc dkms git libelf-dev rfkill iw

However, the second one appears to get the same IP address from DHCP. I seem to recall an issue with non unique MAC addresses a long time ago - can anybody advise?

Looking at the Joggler the MAC addresses are as below and look odd?

ethernet - 02:0e:8e:24:d1:da
wifi - 00:0e:8e:24:d1:da

I found the back story here that there is no MAC address for onboard Ethernet so an address is spoofed from the WIFI one. I still am having some issues that two Ethernet Jogglers are getting the same IP address which is weird. I may try a USB Ethernet to see if that is a workaround.

It appears that the network.yaml was updated with the same MAC address (02-0e-8e-24-d1-da) for the Ethernet port on both my Joggler, which is odd. Is this a bug in the current build? As a workaround I generated a random MAC and changed it in the file.
