I couldn't reboot from there because of the issue that the Polkit update has resolved and I didn't want to simply pull the plug ... so I ssh'd in and did a reboot from there.
In any case - I think it would be useful to have Relaunch in SqueezePlay again.
You could make the polkit change yourself (its just a file you can create, after ssh'ing in). But that would enable Reboot and Shutdown (not Relaunch; but Reboot is probably just as good as Relaunch?)

Yep - have just done it and it works.

Ah ... nearly works ...
reboot works great - but SqueezePlay or OS has not saved its settings change so when it reboots I am still on the previous audio setting.
All very odd.
On reboot SqueezePlay UI said that it was set to External Direct - but audio was still coming out from the audio socket and nothing from USB.
So I changed it to Internal Direct and then back to External Direct ... then from ssh did a couple of "sync" (just in case) and then initiated a reboot from SqueezePlay ... and this time USB audio was working.

I think I read that someone had been using Squeezeplay and after a while it dropped back to command line on Joggler screen.
I now have this after a few minutes of playing one particular radio station (Pepper 96.6 in Greece).
I'll do some more digging to try to find out what is going on.
First thing to note - it drops me into an interactive terminal session that is logged in as squeezeplay
I plugged in a keyboard via USB hub and can use it.
So I tried initiating X from a different terminal session to see if an errors appear and started playing the station again.
After about 5 minutes it went down again and I saw this at the other terminal session
"double free or corruption (out)
/opt/squeezeplay/bin/squeezeplay.sh: line 87: 19920 Aborted ./jive"

I have experienced the
First thing to note - it drops me into an interactive terminal session that is logged in as squeezeplay
This mostly seems to happen when I try to configure a dac as "External [Direct] and Squeezeplay does not recognise the dac.
Changing the dac resolves the issue.
I don't (IIrc) have any issues with installing Ralphy's Squeezeplay (which saves a lot of space on the memory).
This would be my default Squeezeplay but I can not (no matter what I have tried) get Album Art to appear in a consistent manner.
This means I return to building Jivelite

I have been able to make it exit a lot ... too many times to be able to switch to SqueezePlay on Bookworm - this is because I am using it on my desktop as the primary test player when I am adding new stations to "Radio Now Playing".
Can someone else confirm that it exists for them as well?
If it does not ... then maybe we can work out what the differences are in configuration to try to narrow down on the underlying problem and then, hopefully fix it.
Stream to try (remove the spaces)

Streaming mode for HTTP(S) Persistent mode

No other problems; I enjoyed the advert for University of Central Lancashire (campus in Larnaca, Cyprus, apparently
)
Will try again tomorrow

One big difference then ... I have added that station into RNP ... so when it plays here there are also track titles and cover art.
However, other stations that RNP provides info for do work.
If you have the beta of RNP then would be good if you could try it via that. I will include it in the next beta build tomorrow.
Edit:
beta 0.0.39f now available with this station included

Early days yet
One brief rebuffer but seems quite good, some tracks have album art, some dont (might just be an early streaming glitch)

@Paul Webster
There was another rebuffer during a Station advert / promotion
During this time, the screen retained the image of the last played track
After the station info the next track played through but the displayed info did not change
There was another Station ident, then the next track commenced and the meta date and album art updated
hope that helps
ronnie
I can't listen for very long today, will try again tomoorow, Display stuck on previous track info whilst playing new track
I will change the Network setting to "Cache", restart LMS and try tommorow

Mine crashes out after a few seconds and yours hasn’t at all … so even if a couple of glitches I don’t think we are facing the same issue.
I’ll experiment with other LMS settings that I might have tweaked long ago.
I have a suspicion that it is not crashing for me when I play stations using MP3.

(From the Bullseye thread - about restarting startx.service - referring to the unit you get when doing the "of-install squeezeplay")

I just hit Ctrl+C and it pops back
Yup, I spotted that too
seems ok. Glad the reboot/shutdown thing works for you too.
Ok so I think this is due to a mistake in the startx.service (and seeing the same on Bookworm).
The clue here was this:
Code: Select all
of@openframe:~$ sudo systemd-analyze
Bootup is not yet finished (org.freedesktop.systemd1.Manager.FinishTimestampMonotonic=0).
Please try again later.
Hint: Use 'systemctl list-jobs' to see active jobs
of@openframe:~$ sudo systemctl list-jobs
JOB UNIT TYPE STATE
90 systemd-update-utmp-runlevel.service start waiting
2 multi-user.target start waiting
114 getty@tty1.service start waiting
1 graphical.target start waiting
112 startx.service start running
111 getty.target start waiting
This is
some time after bootup
nothing was waiting for anything, Squeezeplay was running fine at this point.
I
think the service type is incorrect:
Code: Select all
# /usr/lib/systemd/system/startx.service
[Service]
Type=oneshot # <- change this to Type=simple instead
With that change:
Code: Select all
of@openframe:~$ sudo systemd-analyze
[sudo] password for of:
Startup finished in 4.914s (kernel) + 9.415s (userspace) = 14.329s
graphical.target reached after 9.049s in userspace.
And, of course, this now works without requiring Ctrl+C:
Code: Select all
sudo systemctl restart startx.service

I have changed the LMS Streaming mode for HTTP(S) to Normal streaming
I also changed the Joggler output to the buld in speaker "internal [Direct]"
I have been playing it for about an hour or so now, with just a couple of short pauses for a little rebuffer.
The following behavior is observed on the joggler screen when there is a long Station ident/promo/advert break
Track playing ceases at count up 3:34 > advert/promo > 6:25 new track > a second or two > station ID > then album art and new count up begins
That's it for today

Thanks Ronnie. Please do resume your normal listening. I’m still trying to work out why mine exits. I think I’ll work out how to enable logging in SqueezePlay to see if I can spot something.

Hi all - I reinstalled Debian on my joggler today using the new (to me) Bookworm image. I'm happy to report that it worked with hardly any manual intervention from me, CLI wise. The only thing I had to do was to reinstall the 'passwd' package in order to change the password, as it was failing with the 'Authentication token manipulation error'. I also added a swap file although I'm not sure that's really necessary.
Thanks to all involved for making this such a great OS for the Joggler!
