Please help, this is cool and I really want it to work
Sometimes I’ll be lucky to get 30 seconds of audio (following a reboot), before it cuts out.
The timer on the main page carries on counting etc and it appears that the player assumes business as usual.
When the audio does return (approximately) 20-30seconds later, it’s not at the point it cut out.
This keeps happening over and over and eventually you just have to give up. You can’t listen to a full song.
I’ve tried playing with buffering settings etc
Also tried increasing the cache-size as suggested by people struggling with similar issues before…
Tried 2 SD cards both are Class-10
fresh installs
updated
Please, if anyone has any ideas, or could help in anyway, it would be greatly appreciated. As mentioned above, I really want this to work.
What hardware are you running Volumio on? Also how is your box connected to the network? Are you sure it’s not in the connection between the DAC and your audio?
Hi
Have you tried using a RAM cache instead? That’s worked for me. The below instructions was used on Volumio1 so I can’t guarantee what will happen in Volumio2.
$sudo nano /etc/spopd.conf
Add this line under [spop]:
cache_path = /run/shm
Save the file and restart.
Ok, so it seems to me that I’m connected fine, then I play a track and either the spopd (that I keep reading about) falls over and I have connection issues with spotify. (please correct me if I’m wrong)
here is the log output as requested

above message appears every time over and over again. Sometimes it will play a couple of seconds of spotify music, but thats all it does.
Webradio works perfectly fine. Network connections are good and spotify works from computer of mobile device perfectly fine.
I am having the same issue, with the exception that it takes a bit longer to fail. Works for up to 1/2hr or so before losing connection. I am running Rpi4. Volumio3 (latest version), hardwired to Ethernet @ 1Gbps, connected to a Schitt Modi3+ via USB. Happens on both web radio and Tidal (I don’t use any other services). It does seem to be more frequent then when I was running Volumio 2.7.
