Issues with AirPlay and Spotify Connect #9

Closed Schniitzelchen closed 2 years ago

Schniitzelchen commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I run my Peppy Radio just by using the Headphonejack on my pi 3b.

When I Enable Airplay and Spotify Connect I don`t hear anything. If I change the settings from the services to hw:1 (Headphone Jack) I Hear some Music but then the Spectrum/VU-Meter Screensavers are not working and the equalizer isn't working either.

Can you help me, telling what I am doing wrong? I am running the latest Version of Peppy with the nearly default config for the Waveshare 5Inch Screen (Premade Image)

Thanks in advance

Hi,

You can try to use the fix described here (Airplay Issue): https://github.com/project-owner/PeppyPlayers.doc/wiki/Known-Issues#airplay-issue I hope everything should work after that.

Here is some additional information about equalizer: https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync/issues/1046 Hopefully it will be helpful.

Best regards

It's possible to make Equalizer and VU Meter working with Airplay by changing User and Group from 'shairport-sync' to 'pi' in two files: /usr/lib/systemd/system/shairport-sync.service

[Unit]
Description=Shairport Sync - AirPlay Audio Receiver
After=sound.target
Requires=avahi-daemon.service
After=avahi-daemon.service
Wants=network-online.target
After=network.target network-online.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/shairport-sync
User=pi
Group=pi

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

/etc/dbus-1/system.d/shairport-sync-dbus.conf

<!-- initial version, based on /etc/dbus-1/system.d/avahi-dbus.conf, with thanks -->
