8 years ago To the original poster - have you tried rpi-update? I was having a similar
problem and updating the Pi's firmware has eliminated the issue.Original comment by mfpri...@gmail.com on 14 Dec 2013 at 3:18

8 years ago I suspect this is the same issue as #31 & #48. Maybe merge them?
I am seeing the same behaviour on 1.4. You either just get silence or the odd
pop. A restart of squeezelite solves the problem.
I can post more logs if you like.Original comment by morkh...@gmail.com on 6 Jan 2014 at 6:04

Some comments on the log:
Last night at 21:52:57.118329 the last track ended.
This morning at 06:45:37.552011 I started playback. Again just silence with the
odd pop.
At 06:46:23.740098 I restarted squeezelite and playback resumed without any
further intervention.
Full log is attached.

8 years ago Can't see anything specific in that log. Could you try with -d output=sdebug
to see if there's anything strange there (you will get lots more output)
This does seem to be specific to the Pi though?Original comment by trio...@btinternet.com on 7 Jan 2014 at 9:16

8 years ago I will change the logging tonight and see what it looks like in the morning.
I will also fire up a client on my Windows machine at the same time so we can
see if it's only a Pi thing.Original comment by morkh...@gmail.com on 8 Jan 2014 at 4:50

8 years ago Experiment all setup and of course this morning it all just works. Both the Pi
and Windows machine play. The one thing I did change was selecting an album
encoded in FLAC because I recall you mentioning somewhere that libmad may have
issues. So I will repeat this test again with an MP3 encoded album.Original comment by morkh...@gmail.com on 9 Jan 2014 at 4:37

8 years ago If it turns out to be libmad then try mpg123 as an mp3 codec - there are some
arm builds on libmad which cased segfaults, but I am not aware of ones which
stop working after a while...Original comment by trio...@btinternet.com on 9 Jan 2014 at 9:23

8 years ago I have a bit of a strange problem. When I run squeezelite with sdebug on I
can't reproduce the problem. As soon as I go back to all=debug the problem
comes back again. It's almost as if sdebug is keeping squeezelite "alive".
Possible fix except for the log size problem ;)
So I changed tactics and decided to give mpg123 a go, but I'm struggling with
rates which mpg seems to be very fussy about. My USB card does up to 48000.
With mad set, playback works and I see this in the logs:

I've had a go at setting rates with -r, but either there is some other issue or
my syntax is incorrect as my alsa breaks and I have to reboot before aplay -l
and squeezelite -l will show any cards again.
Only output I get is:
# squeezelite -l

8 years ago note you need -s before the ip address with recent versions. If you set -r
44100 and the material is not 44100 then you will have a problem - what are you
playing?Original comment by trio...@btinternet.com on 12 Jan 2014 at 12:17

8 years ago Thanks will amend my flags to include the -s
Just playing bog standard CD rips either in "decent" quality mp3 or FLAC. The
material certainly is 44100.
I ended with a FLAC album last night and this morning it played again with no
intervention. I'm going to stick with FLAC and the all=debug for the next few
days and will report back. If that works consistently I'll go back to battling
with mpg123. I did come across this detailed article late last night which
looks like it might solve my sampling issues, but it was a bit much for my
tired brain at that point :p

8 years ago [deleted comment]I've been sticking to just FLAC for the last few days and so far no issues. So
it would seem to me there is an issue with Pi, Squeezelite and mad. Triode are
you able to reproduce this?
Will see if I have some time over the weekend to have another go at mpg123.Original comment by morkh...@gmail.com on 15 Jan 2014 at 4:32
