OK I finally found a solution. I ran squeezeplug instead of squeezelite and it worked straight away!mantekka wrote:Hi i'm back trying to get my DAC working!
Yes it should work since patch 7.01. I can't test it, because I don't own one. If it will not work, we will make it working!CommanderROR wrote:Just a brief question truehl:
Does your build of Raspbian support the Hifiberry DAC out of the box? It's just abour the Best thing that has happend to the audio on the Pi since it'a launch...it works on PiCorePlayer and is supposed to be built into latest Pi firmware, but some modules need to be activated apparently, is that the case on Squeezeplug 7.02?
Just bought a HiFi Berry Digi. It should be delivered in the middle of February! Sounds very interesting!truehl wrote:Yes it should work since patch 7.01. I can't test it, because I don't own one. If it will not work, we will make it working!CommanderROR wrote:Just a brief question truehl:

If it's not working with my scripts, configure it from the wpa_gui. I've not changed anything regarding WiFi, it's still the original Raspbian setup. So configure it from x. Therefor use startx from the console or the VNC server from my setup!llv95dno wrote:Hi - has anyone got the WiFi USB with a Ralink RT5370 chip working on the latest releases of Squeezeplug?
It seems to work well with Rasbian and the topic has been discussed in earlier, but I can not find any info on if there is a working solution. Maybe its a dead end, and I would be grateful to any info on the subject.

I have no idea! The only reason I could mention is that it depends on the different firmware. Did you try with a firmware update? And could you try with SqueezeSlave?Trixster wrote:Hello Thomas,
Even with 500:4 set as the ALSA buffer I'm getting occasional annoying clicks and pops with a pcm2704 dac and SqueezeLite. As another poster mentioned earlier on in this thread, this did not occur with earlier versions of SqueezePlug which were running SqueezeLite1.5.
500:4 is better than default, but the occasional click is still there.
Any ideas on a fix? This is on a 900Mhz overclocked Pi by the way.

Thanks for the info. I just tried it with sysdefault:CARD.... (I normally use hw:) and it makes no difference. Incidentally, if I bump up the buffer to say 200 it gets worse.CommanderROR wrote:Hmmm...tweaming the alsa buffer settings can help, apart from that I don't know.
If you work with the -a setting, make sure to use the
-o sysdefault:CARD***
Options, because the buffers apparently get ignored if you use front or hw as output....at least I read about that.
Thomas, upgrading the firmware makes no difference. I haven't had chance to try squeezeslave unfortunately.truehl wrote:I have no idea!

That's the thing, in Squeezeplug v6 I have no issues at all but in v7 it's a different story.CommanderROR wrote:Weird...the USB sound issues were supposed to be fixed a long time ago.
Sounds promising! I hope the issues will be fixed! If so I'll include a firmware update in the upcoming 7.03 patch. An other issue with SqueezeLite will also be addressed: If you run more than one SqueezeLite player, only one will be recognised, cause they both get the same MAC-address! I don't have access to my Pi's the next days, so it will be next weekend to work on it! Please inform me if the firmware update helps!CommanderROR wrote:Nice find. It seems to have fixed most of the noises on my cmedia usb audio stick. I did not have really serious problems though...
What about the USB Dac problems? Did it help you there?
