Played around with enabling/disabling. Not sure why, but sometimes had to select/unselect one of the CPUs before it worked. It was the same in 16.04/1.1.11 but I did not report it previously.

Can you describe the steps so I can reproduce here? Do you mean select/unselect before you can save?

Hahaha.. I think cpuset is a bigger tweak than a RT kernel. I just don't know why it changes the sound. Probably because keeping everything in the same CPU somehow makes it better? But if so, why?

Anyway, apologies for the late update. So many things happening and a tad flat out. Anyway, we are in beta stage! Have updated the new installer which should hopefully make the system shut down better now. Also fixed cpuset for 20.04, plus other stuffs... Please try and let me know if it's still broken.

As this is a new approach now, I'll need to update the wiki to include some basic setup info for LMS. Or should I pre-set it? Will experiment with this a bit and see before official release.

Currently have CPUSet enabled with CPU 0,1 for system, 2, 3 for user
Uncheck Isolate music player to (User), Save
Check Isolate music player to (User), Save this gives error message: No tasks are running in (user)
To fix this, select CPU 1, unselect CPU 2, Save CPU set now running properly

Just did quick test, installed over Alpha4. First time I ran the script, stalled at installing Samba. Reran script and install completed.

As expected, had to redo my mpd.conf.template for my dual outputs (but this should not be a problem for other users). Mpd appeared OK, and my least favourite myMpd Smartlist remains disabled. LMS volume on LMSWeb was at minimum, had to set to max. MinimSever started and stopped with no problems.

Well done, 1.2Beta now running....

RE: Snakeoil Gear Isolation Alpha Series - Bromf - 04-Apr-2021

1.2.5 Beta running fine here.
Still getting the "albumcache' not ready error when attempting to search using album art work in myMPD.

Did some searching and it seems this is a bug in the Version (6.11.0) of myMPD Snakeoil is using and has been fixed for subsequent versions (Current myMPD release is v7.0.1

Is it possible to update myMPD I wonder ?? I will try an 'apt upgrade mympd' and report :-)
Edit...I can install v7.0.1 but can't get Snakeoil to implement it...defaults to v6.11.0 on boot. Any advice ? :-)

Have file a bug report here. Tentatively set for 1.2.1, but will try and fix this for the 1.2.0 official.

I have that issue too. It's actually taking samba a long time to install, why I have no idea as I have blanked out the output. Just wait (prob around 5+ minutes or something) and it will actually follow through.

Thanks.. Close to official release now I guess.. Shutdown works fine also?

Nice find. Can you SSH to your computer, and run:

Code:
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/mympd

That should use the Ubuntu installed mympd. And that should work. Let me know how it goes. I will update myMPD to 7.01 for the next beta.

That clears the old myMPD and reports the new version installed.
However when I select myMPD in the player page I get...

OK.. You can re-run the installer to get by the old broken myMPD.

Have successfully built custom 7.0.1.. But will run some tests to make sure it still works. Hopefully I can come up with a quick module for you to get things up and running.

So far, all positive listening with 20.04 with this new beta?

As you know, CPUSet made a difference when fixed in Alpha4. Note for when you are fixing CPUSet bug; you may want to recheck that all Mympd processes are running in user CPUs.

I did not hear a change with Beta5, but must admit I was not looking hard! Very content with 1.2 so far... Smile
