Install "VNC Viewer" on your tablet or PC. Assume I know nothing (almost). Logitech subsequently killed off the hardware player product line in 2012. at 5 am) can improve stability: Instead of a small (8Gb) SD card and an external disk you can use a large internal SD card.Even 512 Gb SD cards are cheap enough to buy now.Suppose a configured image file of 8 Gb is available on your Windows PC.With Win32 Disk Imager, the image is copied to the SD disk.With Windows Disk Management you can now see a FAT boot partition of 42 Mb. I had one board failed but got a new one returned.So I have questions about the reliability.I got error message: "10 filters given, but filter bank has only 0.0 slots." So I went on Ali and found this screen for 35€. : 192.168.2.18. An older version of Mono is required! The room correction can be done better with the Hifiberry DAC+ DSP. Now the Raspberry automatically receives an IP number. OPTION 2: DEDICATED MUSIC SERVER (Logitech Media Server; LMS). Use the IP address followed by ":9000".

After mounting the board, checkout: https://www.hifiberry.com/docs/data-sheets/datasheet-dac-dsp/, It says that you must modify /boot/config.txt:* sudo leafpad /boot/config.txt* add line: dtoverlay=hifiberry-dac. After the modification (see below), it sounds fabulous!At first, I compared the HifiBerry DAC+ Pro against my other media player with a high-end DAC ("B-DAC", 1200 euro).Unfortunately, the difference was rather big: the stereo image was not very detailed and it sounded a bit dull.I think the reason for this is the noisy power supply of the Raspberry Pi.Although the board has a buit-in voltage regulator, this does not work well for high frequency noise that comes from the power supply.So adding a passive filter before the voltage regulator assures that the noise from the Raspberry doesn't reach the DAC.Adding this filter improved the audio quality a lot! When using JiveLite on another Raspberry Pi (not where the LMS is installed), it is probably handy to use PiCorePlayer that has buildin suppport for JiveLite. Probably the best and cheapest way is to use an USB SSD drive. Linux myservername 4.1.19+ #858 Tue Mar 15 15:52:03 GMT 2016 armv6l GNU/Linux. I guess you have to mount a USB drive too?

Change ), You are commenting using your Facebook account. First you have to remove R14 (0 Ohm) SMD resistor.The filter consists of an inductor of 100 uH (Conrad art.number 1406004), two ceramic capacitors of 22 nF, a resistor of 22 Ohm and two capacitors of 4700 uF/10V (Conrad art.number 422027).The inductor and resistor are placed in series and replace R14.The ceramic capacitor is connected between the connection of inductor and resistor and ground.The two capacitors of 4700 uF are placed in parallel after the resistor and connected to ground.Check that the electrotrolytic capacitors are mounted with the right polarity! This gives a problem if you play the music (or radio) very softly.This is very annoying. OSMC (Open Source Media Center) is a free and open source media player based on Linux. E.g.
