Snakeoil OS 1.4 problem with Squeezelite and Lyrion - mloutfie - 02-Feb-2025

I recently upgraded to Snakeoil 1.4 and have 2 main problem with Squeezelite and Lyrion. the set up is on 2 machine server client. server is x86 and client is raspi3. all on latest ubuntu. 

Problems:
1. Can only plan few songs in squeezelite before it's stuck and can't be controlled (skip next or queue new songs) the only remedy is to restart lyrion on the server. I also have the same issue with Snakeoil 1.3 server but using Snakeoil 1.4 client. the snakeoil 1.3 has been stable and snakeoil 1.4 also stable serving other OS I tried (roopiexl, moode and wiim ultra) so the problem seems to be in snakeoil 1.4 squeezelite. I have tried squeezelite 1.8, 2.0 and squeezelite V2

2. On lyrion in 1.4 I can't install dlna bridge so I can use mpdcli on the client

There is no log that I can see in lyrion. In 1.3 there used to be log that I can check

Lastly I use hat on the pi 3 with the following config settings. I also 2 hat one dac and one digital out

dtparam=i2s=on
dtparam=audio=off
dtoverlay=hifiberry-dac

I am running SO 1.4 on two X86 boxes with LMS on one and Squeezelite V2 on another. I did test using a Pi5 with Squeezelite V2 but not recently. If @agent_kith cannot identify a fix, I will do a more testing...

Can you please check the config parameters from Moode and see whether it is in Snakeoil. One of the challenges with using Ubuntu is that it does not know about DAC hats. Something that @agent_kith may need to add into the install?


RE: Snakeoil OS 1.4 problem with Squeezelite and Lyrion - mloutfie - 02-Feb-2025

@Snoopy8 So the hat is picked up by snakeoilos after I added the following config in boot.config file. I then selected the hat as output of squeezelite 

config:
dtparam=i2s=ondtparam=audio=offdtoverlay=hifiberry-dac

And it is definitely working for a few songs before it stops

X86 running Ubuntu 24.04 Server, SO 1.4, Lyrion Music Server Version: 9.0.1, 16/44.1 (CD) flac music files on Synology NAS accessed using NFS. 

Pi5 running Ubuntu 24.04 Server, SO 1.4 using USB output.  Played a minimum of 5 music tracks for each player.

Squeezelite Ralph, R2, V2 all played with no problems.

@mloutfie I am guessing here but maybe Pi3 is not powerful enough to run SO on Ubuntu, even though Ubuntu is certified???  Other OS can be used with no issue because they are lighter weight?  Maybe @agent_kith needs to do a Bookworm version of SO 1.4 ?

Not sure whether @uglymusic has tried SO 1.4 on his various Pis ?

Ok let me try this on a pi4


RE: Snakeoil OS 1.4 problem with Squeezelite and Lyrion - mloutfie - 03-Feb-2025

Tried it with pi4. Same experience play one track then stuck on next track


RE: Snakeoil OS 1.4 problem with Squeezelite and Lyrion - Snoopy8 - 03-Feb-2025

Tried Lyrion Music Server Version: 9.0.0 - 1732822968 (fresh install of LMS, have not used it on this box) on another NUC with SO 1.4

CM4 Mercury V2 Streamer with fresh install of Ubuntu 24.04, SO 1.4  and no activation. Tried Squeezelite V2, 1.6, played at least 2 tracks as quick test. 

Some more testing suggestions.  Are you able to put a fresh copy of Ubuntu 24.04 and SO 1.4 on X86 box?   If not, then please detail how you upgraded your X86 box. Is the box dedicated to SO or there are other apps?  Did you remove L(ogitech)MS 8.x before upgrading to L(yrion)MS 9? 

Also, can you please enable LMS on your Pi4 and use Squeezelite on your Pi3.

My latest guess is that LMS is the issue here, rather than Squeezlite on Pi3.


RE: Snakeoil OS 1.4 problem with Squeezelite and Lyrion - mloutfie - 03-Feb-2025

Initially I tried to do ubuntu upgrade on my x86 box but ended up with kernel panic. So I scrap the whole drive and reinstall ubuntu server 24.04 and install SO1.4 then I install lyrion (instead of LMS). Also yeah this box is just SO1.4 only.


Will need to get some new sd card to try to run pi4 and pi3 on SO1.4 but i will try that.

I'm actually think the squeIite is the problem since I did try moode using lms connected to the x86 server running so1.4 and it is running perfectly. Is there any logging can be done in squeezelite?


RE: Snakeoil OS 1.4 problem with Squeezelite and Lyrion - Snoopy8 - 03-Feb-2025

If Squeezelite is the problem, have your tried running LMS & Squeezelite on same box?


RE: Snakeoil OS 1.4 problem with Squeezelite and Lyrion - mloutfie - 04-Feb-2025

I haven't run it in the same box ill try it
