Hi ,
I have installed the latest image 3.14 and touch plugin OK , Qobuz OK but when i want to install MPD_OLED , antiprism plugin buster_mpd_Oled_Error.txt (8.1 KB) I have this error when doing :

Blockquote
PLAYER=VOLUMIO make
I have atached a txt file , Do I need to adress this to mpd_oled dev

Thanks

balbuze · December 28, 2020, 7:26pm

for Buster based OS, use

PLAYER=MPD LDLIBS="-li2c" make

Lintbf · December 28, 2020, 7:32pm

Now I have this
buster_mpd_Oled_Error_1.txt (4.6 KB)

ashthespy · December 28, 2020, 7:36pm

From the guide at mpd_oled and the MAKEFILE, try

PLAYER=VOLUMIO LDLIBS="-li2c" make

That could be sorry! You can just install it with sudo apt install shairport-sync

Lintbf · December 28, 2020, 7:41pm

Many Thanks, it worked. I fallow that tutorial.
Now I want to install peppymeter but I am afraid :D.
Regards

No issues!

Go for it, if something breaks, we can fix it
Is it python 3 based? Or?

Lintbf · December 28, 2020, 7:48pm

Yes, it is python 3.
I Have Manged to install in volumio 2 but hard… I will try those days.
Now I am listening to webradio and when I stop it I see some glitches in the screen dsi atached. 4.3 inch. The albumart increase the decrease the size…

I am trying to install the peppymeter but I am stopped here : I have installled pygame but when I do an import pygame I have this error

The pygame I have installed with

Blockquote

sudo apt-get install python3-pygame

Peppymeter script I open with python3 peppymeter.py

balbuze · December 28, 2020, 8:47pm

Yes I met the same problems with pygame. Didn’t fix it though.

Lintbf:

Sorry, this is fixed in a newer versions, until then try the following

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/vc/lib
# You can then go ahead and finish your installation. 
# A more permanent solution would be to add that to your ~/.bashrc
echo 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/vc/lib' >> ~/.bashrc

Or better yet, update ld.so.conf to use this path as well when looking for libs as the newer images do

i think it had problem with shairport, it can’t run.
I do everything, install the shairport successfully, but there is no audio output on the pi, and the LCD also doesn’t show up when playing Tidal through airplay.

ashthespy! you should install shairport, and run the test you will see, since I don’t understand and know about the commands, I only know the test results!

Thanks for your work!
Best regards
Mac

Yes, yes, but I don’t know which link to him. thanks!

Lintbf · December 29, 2020, 11:46am

It appears the the sound of buster is different the n Jessie? It is more clear…? Something is changed…

ashthespy · December 29, 2020, 11:52am

Well, that would be hard, I don’t use airplay…
Can you be more specific as to what you men by “it can’t run”
Logs are always helpful in such cases. What errors do you see?

I don’t have a setup (or the ears) to test that, but a LOT has changed/improved in terms of the software… not sure how that reflects in the sound clarity…

Lintbf · December 29, 2020, 12:15pm

Sometimes it is ok but sometimes it appear that the old version sounded more warm, now it sounds more analitical, metalic, but other user should give feedback also. I do not know.

Lintbf · December 29, 2020, 5:15pm

Hi ,

Do you mean to add the code in ld.so.conf file? this file from /etc/ld.so.conf contains only this ;

Blockquote
volumio@volumio:/etc$ cat ld.so.conf
include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf

I have try this and when I do import pygame no error is received but

Blockquote
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/vc/lib

Nope, try

echo '/opt/vc/lib' | sudo tee /etc/ld.so.conf.d/00-vmcs.conf
sudo ldconfig
