Snakeoil Gear Isolation Beta Series

[Snoopy8]

Welcome back to the online world!
 

Do not know whether this is a problem or not.

After a fair bit of going around in circles, managed to get 16.04/1.1.11 (&1.2 Alpha3) running on VirtualBox and playing music via USB. However, with 20.04/1.2 Alpha3, have problem with network. I do not think I had the problem with 20.04/1.2 Alpha3 install on NUC, but cannot check because I back on 16.04. If this is a VirtualBox problem, then please ignore.

I do get an ip addresss and can SSH into instance.

This looks like a bug in the API backend.. I'll see if I can fix this.

Do note that the newer Ubuntu uses netplan, and it's not supported by Snakeoil just yet. But I hope to address that soonish.

If you get it running in Alpha4, that would be good. With both 16.04 and 20.04 running on VirtualBox on Win laptop, I should be able to test things rapidly using snapshots. I hope the virtual instances are good enough to compare relative SQ.  Otherwise, may have try VirtualBox on NUC.
 

I cannot get 0.22.3 onto my main music setup, but can get it on a VirtualBox instance. No idea why. Thought maybe it was because I was using Mpd, tried not using it, uninstalling it etc..  Have also re-installed 16.04/1.1.11 several times with same result,  Any chance of making Mpd 0.22.3 available as a separate upload?  Keen to compare 22 vs 21 and see whether I can reproduce the same result as 20.04.

p/s am using this download meantime

Uploading that works for your main music rig?

Yes, can upload Mpd 0.22.3.  Interesting that while I prefer 0.22.3 for my reference piano piece, 0.21.25 has a better sound stage for other music!
