Gaps in music playback

I'm now concentrating on getting mt-daapd and Squeezecenter to stream mp3 files without gaps. I notice that iTunes on a Windows computer on my network stops playing its Squeezecenter stream after a few files. At that moment, on the Bubba Two, nmbd has stopped running. nmbd is one of the two daemons ...

Gaps in playback of iTunes files

Turned out Dave Douglas HAS sounded better -- playback of the original .m4a file on the Bubba using Squeezecenter is slow, happens with many gaps (unexpected silences) in between and Bubba Two itself looked like it was working too hard for its own good. What was so bad? I ran the command Squeezecent...

File type configuration in Server Settings on web interface

Under File Format Conversion Setup, pairs of file formats are listed and you can select a method to convert one to the other. The information used to build this interface is read from the two *.conf files in /etc/squeezecenter. The conversion I am looking for, is from "AAC or Movie File" t...

Lame and faad now work, still no progress

I've got lame and faad working. Yet, Squeezecenter doesn't serve up the .m4a files -- so THAT was not the problem. Playing .m4a still doesn't work, though. In the server logs, I still find: [08-12-30 16:54:36.3361] Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::getConvertCommand (311) Error: Didn't find any comma...

Which programs are used by SqueezeCenter?

I read through the convert.conf and slimservice-convert.conf files and came up with a list of all non-squeezecenter binaries squeezecenter uses "out of the box": [alac] [faad] [flac] [lame] [mac] [mov123] [mplayer-stdout] [mppdec] [sox] [wmad] [wmadec] [wvunpack] Now this list is to be use...

Why not use the web interface?

Rather than poking around in configuration files and logfiles, one could try the web interface. Just open http://bubba:9000 and choose Home, Settings, SqueezeCenter Settings, File Types. File type mov is not listed, but "Apple Lossless" is. The menus that could be used to make settings are...

Using Squeezecenter with my iPod

I'm one of those guys with an iPod and a nice collection of music encoded in m4a files, which I've put on my Bubba Two. After installing Streamserver, I could browse my albums and playlists in the browser (on http://bubba:9000). Cool. But I couldn't actually play the files. That was not so good. My ...

Re: Squeezecenter Difficulty

However on playing my music via my squeezebox3 I was somewhat surprised to find that every track stops playing after about 3 minutes. I have tried to ascertain if there was a fault in the Squeezecenter or my Squeezebox and cannot locate anything. This happens whether I connect my music through ethe...

Bubba disappearing again, now slowly

I've now made absolutely sure that the Bubba is not switched off without a proper shutdown. And I did an apt-get dist-update and an apt-get update, then configured Samba (again). The machine ran great all through yesterday. After waking up and classes, I switch on my workstation. Bubba shares are no...

Server is back

After reinstall from the USB stick, Bubba is back again. I've now configured it to obtain its IP address from the router, and I've reserved the address on the Router, so I know it will always be the same.

Brought Bubba down, rebooted; and it reappeared on the network. :roll:

And it's gone again!

I shut Bubba down tonight (carefully, pressing the button). This morning, it starts up properly (showing both its blue and green lights) but fails to appear on the network: no SMB, no ping, no www. I know I can reinstall it again, but that will be a labor intensive solution given that I plan to shut...
