Squeezelite add-on gives a problem on Intel NUC box (NUC5i3RYK).

The problem:

• Almost all songs skip short pieces of the music so it sounds terrible. This happens with all type of files, incl. FLAC en MP3 but especially with OGG Vobis. No matter if the native OGG decoder is used or if recoded to Flac.

• If one or more Picoreplayers are added with synchronization, all the players give the same problem and there is a big synchronization difference between the Picoreplayers and the NUC. De NUC lags about 3 sec behind the Picoreplayers.

• If the Squeezelite player from the NUC is disabled, all the Picoreplayers work fine, not skipping in the songs and the synchonisation is perfect.

• The same issue persist if I use a USB external sound card on the NUC.

• The CPU load is only about 4%, the memory usage about 19%

• On a different NUC (DN2820FYKH) I have exacly the same problems;

Home Assistant on Intel NUC:

Logitech Media Server Versie: 8.3.1

piCorePlayer:

Is there any way I can tune the Squeezelite add-on in the hope I can resolve this issue?

Just moved from TrueNAS Home Assistant Core to Supervised Home Assistant with the Addon store. Tried installing LMS via Home Assistant and it worked the first time while I set up Spotty and Material skin. But now I can't get it to work at all. Every restart throws up the same error - even tried reinstalling from fresh and still nothing!

I assume I've just done something silly, but can't figure out what!

This add stopped working. After deleting the add on and re adding. I get the following message over and over again.

I have a HiRes USB DAC connected to an Intel NUC with SqueezeBox and Squeezelite installed. All works fine. The DAC is capable to play at 384K sample rate and 32Bit wide. However, when I play HiRes files (DSF), the output om my DAC is limited to 44.1K.

Is there a way to increase the sample rate and bit size when I play HiRes files through LMS and Squeezelite?

Hi Phill,

Thanks for this add-on!
I just installed it, and hope to make great use of it in my workshop.
One thing I notice. In the configuration I set the Name to Workshop. (Without any quotes)
In my squeezer app on my phone the player showed up immediately, but as 'Workshop' (with the single quotes)

Can you take a look at this?

Regards,

Bert

Installed the addon to be able to use e.g. the Built-in Audio as a media player in MASS.
At startup, everything looks fairly normal initially, but then it immediately starts spawning error messages every 5 secs :

Please add full functionality described in the squeezelite documentation.

Hi, Please explain how to install this "Add-on" for those of us not running HA-OS or HA-Supervised

Is it possible to add the ability to run multiple copies of the player?
It would be convenient to organize a multiroom with LMS.
I had a crash and installed two repositories and, accordingly, 2 players
I connected 2 usb sound cards and they worked each with their own player.
I tried to add another one, but HA does not give, writes that it is already installed.

Using ha-addon-squeezelite for some time.
Works good, but the player name you put in the config always gets a " ' " at the start and end of the player name from somewhere.
It has to be added from ha-squeezelite-addon, because it is my only player that gets these characters.
Example:
Should be: Kitchen
It is: 'Kitchen'
I always have to correct that inside LMS, but after a restart of the ha-addon-squeezelite these characters are back again.

Sometimes, randomly, Squeezelite loses the ability to play music. Instead of music it plays some strange "helicopter" noise. The decoder skips frames according to the log:

The only thing that fixes it is complete reboot of the device. Restarting the service does not help.
