Snakeoil 1.3.0 Alpha 2

[agent_kith]

A quick update:

Alpha 2 has been running without a hiccup on my 8GB RPi 4 for some time now (over a week?). I'm not sure about this, but could there be more clicks at the start of tracks as the bit-depth/sampling rate changes. Has anyone else noticed this?

Side topic a bit as this is something that's always on the back of my mind. What DAC are you using? Clicking (on the DAC?) is normal as the data changes. If that's the sound of a relay. To be honest I'm always paranoid that part will wear out (as it's a physical part), so I always play the same format tracks each session.

I know that is just me being stupid, as not using the relay may actually make it worse (will it get stuck/sticky?)

RPi 5:

I cannot get SO to install on Ubuntu 23.10 64-bit Server. I've tried five times or more, now. I have the same error that AK thought might be a download problem.

Hopefully I can install 23.10 on my Pi 4 and see what's happening. (You might actually need to run the bookworm script for 23.10 but I'll need to double check).

I can get SO to install on Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm, but LMS is unstable.

Hmmm. Download a newer version (maybe 8.4.x?) from here: https://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/

Drop it in the install window (or install it manually) and see if it's any better?
