[Plugin] pirate audio

@AxLED, thanks for your workaround, but unfortunately this happened with Volumio 2.882:

volumio@volumiok:~$ sudo pip uninstall websocket-client
[sudo] password for volumio:

@tigger-gg

i guess you are getting an error on command pip --version
If yes, please fix pip by command sudo easy_install -U pip and run pip --version again, now you should get an version information.

Then follow the workaround instructions:

  • disable pirate audio plugin (via web GUI)
  • login via ssh
  • uninstall websocket-client with following command: sudo pip uninstall websocket-client
  • install a specific version of websocket-client with the following command: sudo pip install websocket-client==0.58.0
  • enable pirate audio plugin (via web GUI)
  • tell me the results

This is what happened during the plugin installation:

Thanks AxLED , display is working fine. Even all buttons are working fine ( Y = 24). Just one issue I am not able to control volume, it’s running on max every time. My headphones do not have volume controls, so not able to use it as iPod.

is volume control via webgui working?

AxLED

No AxLED, volume control from webgui is also not working.

Did you use following settings?
Volume setting → type of mixer: “Software"
Maybe after changing the settings a reboot is needed.

AxLED

Thanks, yes it worked fine.

I am able to see one issue here, i am not able to search USB songs from device it says plugin doesn’t support, but webgui is able to show all songs. I am using Raspberry Pi Zero W.

Thanks for the response, i will check USB support within the next days.
AxLED

Thanks guys for working the display issue out. I had the same problem and I got it fixed following your instructions. Thanks a lot !

Hi people.
I an trying to get the Pirate Audio working but have the issue listed above of having just a blank screen.
I have tried the ‘work arround’ listed above regarding the websocket client but still no display.
Audio out is working. Buttons do nothing. Backlight turns on breifly when booting.
Hope someone can help.

@Jayman,

can you please try following.

  • Login via ssh to your pi
  • change directory: `cd /data/plugins/miscellanea/pirateaudio
  • python display.py`
  • execute display.py: python display.py
  • Post output

Regards

AxLED

AxLED thanks for your help.

I am hardly a linux expert, quite a far way from it but i am sure that is a problem.

@Jayman,

so try the following
login your pi via ssh

  • try to install socket-io manually: sudo pip install socketIO-client
  • post output

AxLED

I disabled plugin first and ssh as your request, see below.

@Jayman,

i guess pip is broken, please try the following steps:

  • login via ssh
  • check if pip is correctly installed by command pip --version
  • if you get an error, fix it by command sudo easy_install -U pip and run pip --version again, now you should get an version information.
  • Install socketIO-Client: sudo pip install socketIO-client
  • uninstall websocket-client with following command: sudo pip uninstall websocket-client
  • install a specific version of websocket-client with the following command: sudo pip install websocket-client==0.58.0
  • enable pirate audio plugin (via web GUI)
  • tell me the results

@Jayman,

can you please provide following informations:

  • which raspberry pi
  • which version of volumio
  • anything else (except pirate audio dac and power supply) connected to pi?
  • anything else installed (which doesnt belong to the volumio cosmos)?
