    I do have a second Raspberry Pi. Bought a co-ax hat so I can use as replacement for SB. Thinking I’ll likely need USB WiFi. What do you think?

    also I rewrote SD card and now see PiCorePlayer in WiFi via iPeng. Now let’s see if I can connect via IP address.

      Success! It did not show up as PiCorePlayer but I used Raspberry IP and got to PiCorePlayer page. Setting up LMS

          One more problem. Having trouble mounting USB Disk. My HDD is listed. I check enable box but it requires Mount Point. How do I determine that?

              Got it. Looks like it’s scanning properly now!

                Now I can’t get Tidal to work. Works when SB connected to laptop LMS but not PiCore.

                  Also have problem with playlists. I think I may not have pointed my Squeezebox to correct folder. How can I get back to that selection?

                  better yet is there a way to turn off my Squeezebox?

                      Been through that numerous times. Not helpful for my issue.

                        I'm probably misunderstanding something, since that's what I sometimes do best. I do not run LMS on pCP, so I am often unaware of alternate ways to do things. Maybe there is a way to set the playlist folder in the pCP web interface, but all I know is how to set it in the LMS settings page. It's on the Basic Settings tab. Using the default web interface at http://<LMS_IP>:9000, do you not see this?

                        Sorry, but I don't think I'm alone in not understanding this. Do you want to turn off your Touch? Disconnect LMS from mysqueezebox.com? Or something else?

                          I’ve got the playlist issue resolved. Can not get Tidal to work. Everything working fine connecting to my laptop running LMS. So I think I’ll just stay with that for now.

                          thanks for trying to help.

                            That's great that it's working for you now. I hope you can just sit back and enjoy the music, without any further problems.

                              For Tidal you need to log in to Tidal at mysqueezebox and allow LMS to synchronise player settings with mysqueezebox (mysqueezebox tab in settings)

                                Did that and still no Tidal. It shows up on iPeng. I can search Tidal and see my playlists. The tracks will appear to play then restart with no sound through system. Tidal does work through my laptop LMS.
