He is using piCore not RaspberryPi OS....

suppliccant.conf should be wpa_supplicant.conf...

[Greg Erskine]

ssh [email protected] should be ssh [email protected]

Your assumption is right, a default pCP build will just attach to a network over wired ethernet.

Squeezelite though, may not start if the sound card is not available and therefore will not appear in LMS.

By default, it should default to Headphones.

[Greg Erskine]

You really need to try for yourself. Some people can hear differences, some can't.

I tend to go for convenience over perceived improvements....

[Greg Erskine]

Very strange for a text editor not to have a paste command.

onboot.list should be onboot.lst but....

I don't think editing onboot.lst is necessary....

[Greg Erskine]

I think you should forget about piCorePlayer and start with RPiOS.

As you are probably aware, piCore is not your average Linux distribution.

[Greg Erskine]

No need to add those. Everything in home/tc is already included in the backup.

Try adding command to [Tweaks] > "User commands". It should run late enough in the boot process.

While adding stuff to home/tc is OK for testing, you should really investigate making...

Before you posted the link, no one knew what hardware or software you were using. You were a bit scant on details.

The instructions are for a "generic" 3.5 inch display. If your display is compatible with the generic display then the instructions should get it functioning....

I believe we removed it years ago.

It was slowing things down and until the time was synced it would show the wrong time.

I'm still looking for a report or log that shows the time!!

See piCorePlayer Documentation "Access piCorePlayer via ssh"....

I have a dim memory that the "Whole SD Card" option is actually a fraction less (maybe 100MB??) to give a little wiggle room.

The flexible resizing option was really just to give people the choice, especially as SD cards got bigger or if you use a third partition.

See piCorePlayer documentation, Projects, Add a Topping E30 USB DAC.

Different USB DAC but the process should be the same.

In step 9, instead of hw:CARD=E30,DEV=0 use what is appropriate for your DAC.

[Greg Erskine]

OK, no prob.

[Greg Erskine]

Is it possible to add a "Mark Channels Read" link on the Unread Posts and Recent Posts pages?

[Greg Erskine]

Looks like you are on the right track Paul.

Because we use piCore, the extension feature means certain extensions can be updated independently of the version of piCorePlayer.

In this example, Ralphy can update squeezelite and we do not need to make a new version of piCorePlayer.

Usually, the piCorePlayer image will contain...

[Greg Erskine]

Yes.

In the above example, it should show up as "Peppy Meter xxxxxx"

Edit: The code looks for "VU_Meter_" at the beginning of the filename.

[Greg Erskine]

Hi Michael,

What needs to be changed in setlocale.sh?

Also, what's an accented character? lol

[Greg Erskine]

Eyerex

Great work.

You could just name your files "VU_Meter_Peppy_Meter_xxxxxx.tcz" and drop them in the "tce" folder.

You have to make sure to transfer the tcz files as binary in winSCP otherwise Jivelite locks up. Keep an eye out for perm...
