There appears to be backwards incompatilites with MPD if you're using an older version of Ubuntu or Raspbian. Have tested this firmware and they run fine on Ubuntu 22.04 and Raspbian 11.
Moving forward,
Introduction
Yet another maintainence release to address some of the user reported issues (Refer to changelog). Also very happy to close off a very old feature (item #7). As you've guys have known (I've been very transparent about this) - I have changed 3 jobs in the past 18 months or so.
I've starting to forget the exact numbers are blur now, possibly > 3 jobs, and < 18 months. The job specifics for every new job is different, as such I had to spend more time than usual to focus and learn lots of new things (and technologies).

This is not a whinge, just a fact of life, and it is important that my full time job responsibilities will trump over the Snakeoil project. Because of that, there are things I would like to improve, but sadly cannot in the short term due to time constraints. Namely the Raspberry Pi edition.
I would very much like to get the quality of the Raspberry Pi up to speed, but cannot due to life constraints. I certainly believe Raspberry Pi is the way of the future. And will be keen to explore this platform more in ernest once the kernel builder is done. Until then, please
There are so many components and elements in Snakeoil, a general statement, or statement without context are totally meaningless.
To help me make Snakeoil better, please follow the steps outlined at the top of the Trouble Shooting section. Instead of

And finally, yes Raspberry Pi is considered experimental right now, but it will get better. Last but not lease, enjoy and happy listening!

!!! Consider Raspberry Pi as experimental !!!
As in, it will work mostly, but also some parts will not. And this is where you guys come in. When something isn't working, don't just say it's not working. That is unhelpful. The "not working" is the effect, it's the final step of the process. What I need are the details, i.e. every step from start to finish (and be very specific about what is not working). As an example, a statement like "Snakeoil is not working" is totally unhelpful. Or contextless statements like "This works with insert_other_audiophile_software but not with SnakeoilOS".There are so many components and elements in Snakeoil, a general statement, or statement without context are totally meaningless.

Quote:I am using LMS And Squeezelite v1.6.4. My DAC is Accuphase DC-37 and is connected to the Snakeoil PC with a generic USB cable but to a SoTM USB PCI-e card. When I queue a song (sample_music.dsf) to the DAC-37, the song shows up in the DAC's play list. But all I get is garbage when I hit play the play button.Include pictures where you think it's appropriate.
