Have you tried setting the -D delay value when switching between pcm and dop? The MacOS version of squeezelite uses a completely different audio subsystem to that of picoreplayer, so comparing the two is not really useful. Please update squeezelite to the latest available v1.9.7-1282 from the picoreplayer webgui. Then enable logging at all=debug level and provide the full log when the "hiss" happens.
Great I’ll do that.... Thank you for your prompt support.
Being an early adopter of your solutions with LMS since now around 15y...I just wanted to say a big thank you for all your efforts, allowing the audio community to enjoy server based HiRes music.
Kind regards Philippe

Hello Ralph,
here is the sound log as requested while the piCorePlayer was playing a PCM file with the starting noise for the first 4 sec approx.
I've updated Squeezelite via the PCP WebGui to the newest available version.

Please update squeezelite. The current version is 1.9.7-1282-pCP although the changes between 1278 and 1282 should not make a difference for this issue.
Hello Ralph,
I performed the update from PCP WebGUI while updating each module one by one and this one is the latest I could get this way.
Should I change the repository or go to command line and perform something sudo apt-get install piCore... or similar as do not know PCP’s distro...?
Thank you for your help, Kr, Philippe

1282 is already in the primary and secondary repositories. Could be a cloudflare caching issue but we haven't had any problems like that lately.
Good afternoon Ralph,
Did the upgrade again and now I have the right version installed.
The bad side is that the issue is still the same.
Now I have a more precise use case in qualifying the issue:
The background noise is only occurring at starting a new song and at the end of a song, roughly 5 sec each where the background noise (like white noise) is mixed with the song playing but some dB lower...but enough to spoil the experience.
When pausing a song and/or unpausing the problem is not occurring at all, only when stopping a song and/or restarting it or jumping to another track, then the problem appears. Hoping this may help in your investigations.
Please tell me if you want the new logs with the new version?
Kind regards Philippe

Do you have crossfade enabled in lms? If so, as a test, disable all crossfade settings for the player and see if the hiss persists.
These are the settings for the PCP on LMS...
[image: image.png] and problem still like that.
Even if crossfades and transitions are disabled it feels like there is something close to it, as it appears only at starting tracks or stopping them...

Good evening Ralph,
Just an update on the issue. I continued to investigate and found by chance the root cause of the issue which was not a given.
In fact it is a defective Devolo 1200+ Power Lan plug. It is still functional, but is the root cause of my issues as when replacing it with another plug the problem simply disappears....amazing.
I suppose a defective part inside generating noise in transitional mode and then working fine in continuous mode....
Sorry to have bothered you with my issue, by I definitely couldn’t find the cause and incriminated the software.
A big thank you for your help and especially for your great pieces of code. We are sharing the same passion...
Kind regards, Philippe

Hello Ralph
Using PiCorePlayer 6.1.0 and associated Squeezelite on Raspberry 4 connected to an Intel x86 NUC LMS 8 (latest version) on Ubuntu Mate 20.04.1
Since having reinstalled the full chain from scratch I’m experiencing a strange behavior on my second system, having for any file I’m start to play a hiss in background for the first seconds of the song and the same phenomena appears when stopping the song where the hiss is reappearing for 3 sec approx. I’ve tried everything I could and spent hours on it....now a bit desperate.
By the way I have a main system where this phenomena is not appearing at all connected to the same LMS server.
For both systems it’s LMS 8 in its latest nightly on Ubuntu 20.04.1
Main system with no issue: SqueezePlay 1242 on MacOS latest version USB DAC connected via iFi iGalvanic3 and Audio-GD R8HE
Second system with issue: PiCorePlayer 6.1.0 on Rasp4 USB connection to Musical Fidelity 192 digital interface and AES/EBU out to Musical Fid. M1 DAC
On LMS the Player is configured with 100 vol out, no cross fade or any transition.... just pure
Out of the box the problem is there.
As I have a lot of DSF files I configured, I configured DSDplayer plugin to have DoP on SqueezePlay and FLAC/PCM conversion for the MUFI not supporting DSD neither DoP. Problem is the same, and even worse when switching from a DSF file back to a FLAC one.
I reinstalled everything 3 times....same issue....I even changed my PI4 for my older PI3 and still the same... I unplugged the digital interface to connect it straight to the DAC.....same issue.... I tested the DAC with another source to be sure I do not have any HW issue, the sound was free of any hiss and background noise floor.
Would you have any idea of the problem ?
Thank you for your support, Philippe
