Almost there...
All squared out flac now on LMS 7.9.2 on Windows 10 PC towards SB Classic wired ethernet.
Tried the same setup for Synology DS214play on DSM 6.2.2 and installed pinkdot LMS 7.9.2 and Radio Paradise plugin.
DSM and all packages are at the latest release level.
The flac streams now play towards the PC based squeezeplayer, but SB Classic provides brief track/artist/album info, medidates about 4 seconds
and then nothing. LMS on Synology server log has not a single error.
See below after starting LMS and trying flac streams twice :
[19-11-04 16:00:39.1131] main::init (387) Starting Logitech Media Server (v7.9.2, 0027.1571226194, Wed Oct 16 14:24:12 CEST 2019) perl 5.024000 - i686-linux

Just noticed following error on SB Classic display Panel :
"Error Can not open file"
"Radio Paradise (flac) - playlist.radioparadise.com"
Ideas anyone ?Last edited by B1tbull; 2019-11-04 at 08:35. Reason: more info

Thanks Michael, but issue persists.
Exact error message on SB Classic Display is :
Line1 : Problem Can't open file from
Line2 : Radio Paradise (flac) - playlist.radioparadise.com
Playing Radio Paradise MP3 192 kbps ( in My Apps ) from Synology LMS is ok.
From PC based LMS the SB Classic is playing flac both direct and proxied

I was wondering if there are still skipping issues with RP interactive streams. I might have an idea for a workaround

I know that its not an answer to the question, but all of the regular streams have been rock solid for months for me. Not a glitch. I abandoned interactive because I really don't need the features. But, at that time, the issues were quite rare in my experience, mostly the fail, restart at a few songs previous.

I noticed over in the Volumio user forum that they are dealing with similar problems, and some frustration to boot.
I tried an experiment last night and got an interesting result, although I don't know exactly what it implies...
I started the "Main" RP FLAC Interactive stream on two devices - my SB Touch and my laptop running Squeezelite. I started the SB Touch first, so it was leading the other player by a few seconds; they were playing asynchronously. Both players have a solid connection to my server. They played flawlessly for hours, only a few seconds apart .. and then the SB Touch dropped out for several seconds; it did this several times and then in the middle of a song it dropped out altogether. At this point I assume the RP plugin woke up and began downloading the same FLAC file over again, or possibly it restarted playing the existing download from the beginning - I am curious to know which? Either way, my SB Touch repeated the last five songs. Meanwhile, the Squeezelite player running on my laptop never glitched and continued playing perfectly all the while: I thought that was interesting.
I don't know if they were downloading the same FLAC file from the same RP server or not, I don't know how to tell that without using Wireshark, which I will try to do later.
I also noticed that when the SB Touch dropped out, that it was sitting there, doing nothing and waiting for more data from the server. I had logged into it using ssh and noticed that it's sirq usage was at 0% during the dropout/silence which occurred in the middle of a song. Typically my SB Touch CPU is running at around 82% idle and 2% sirq. When it comes time to begin playing the next song, the sirq rises temporarily to about 13%.
I don't understand ... Does the RP plugin download the entire FLAC file all at once and then LMS begin to stream this data one song at a time to the player, or is LMS downloading the file piecemeal while streaming to the player? From my past snooping using Wireshark, I had come under the impression that the FLAC file is being downloaded in pieces while streaming to the player was ongoing, but eavesdropping on the Volumeio forum, their discussion appeared to suggest the file was downloaded all at once in the beginning.
I have set the LMS radio station buffer to 30 seconds - does that make any difference when playing RP FLAC Interactive, since it is really downloading a file instead of actually streaming?
While writing this rather long post, my SB Touch has dropped out two more times, while the Squeezelite player running on my laptop playing directly to my USB DAC, has sailed right through again without a hitch.
I note that I recently pulled and built the latest squeezelite from Github, and it works very well. Playing RP FLAC Interactive, it has not glitched once - I don't know yet if that means anything. I start it as such: "./squeezelite -a 400:4 -o plughw:CARD=Ego,DEV=0"Last edited by Ron F.; 2019-12-12 at 07:50.
