Easiest way to create player targets for Music Assistant to connect to an active speaker via SPDIF for <$30 ? Squeezelite seems like a good candidate, but unsure how to connect to SPDIF

I’m struggling to find the easiest solution to connect a set of active speakers that have BT/Optical (Toslink)/Coax. I currently use a tablet to stream Deezer via BT, but I want to be able to use them in Music Assistant. I tried Bubblepnp on the tablet, but it’s too slow for that, it wasn’t reliable....

sylverstream,

MA and HA are hosted on a RPi4 in the garage, not near the speakers.

sylverstream,

Thanks mate, much appreciated. That’s what I mean, it’s complicated… I have no idea what extra hardware I’d need. I just want to connect it via Coaxial and the only thing I can find is very complicated docs like you found :)

BT is not an option as I’d like to keep using the tablet directly to BT in case MA/HA is down.

sylverstream,

When I was still drinking, I never understood people drinking tea. Now I really enjoy it. We just try different flavours green tea/herbal tea/black tea/etc from: www.tleaft.co.nzThey ship world wide but I guess there is something in your area too.

sylverstream,

Good stuff, congrats

Shelley 1

So, there’s no way to manually turn it on? In my case, I’d add the Shelly inside the well, wired to the Fan, and will always have the Fan switch on?

sylverstream,

I’ve been sober for 5.5 years. Recently we had a party and someone gave us champagne. I thought, well it’s been 5.5 years, I should be able to handle a glass. After a couple of sips I felt the urges so much more intense than before. I had another glass, already causing some weird looks from close people, and felt bad afterwards. Since then, now and then the idea of trying again slipped into my mind. Feels like my mind is tricking me that I should try again. We’re on a weekend break away now, so another reason for my mind to say that it would be okay to drink.

I read my notes from when I quit, with reasons why I quit, as I thought I would need them later. That definitely helped. Still, having urges :(

Why can’t I drink like most normal people :( Thanks for reading.

Iwndwyt.

sylverstream,

It has integrated Intel graphics, not a separate GPU.

sylverstream,

Yes, but I think it’s because of OpenVino. Some other people with Intel HD using OpenVino had similar issues. I’ve just switched to another model based on this post.

sylverstream,

I’m in NZ, 220V.

How to remotely reboot a Linux host if SSH fails to connect?

Edit2: Thanks all for your responses! I have checked the logs, lemmy.nz/comment/6192604, and based on that removed tracker-miner-fs as it’s a search/index tool which I don’t need. No idea why it took over all memory. I’ll also get a WiFi Smartplug as a kill switch. Hopefully that solves it. Thanks again heaps!...

sylverstream,

Thanks! That should work.

sylverstream,

Thanks, I’ve got a HP SFF as well. Not 100% sure how to turn it on though from Ubuntu. There’s a software based version: manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/…/watchdog.8.html

But I guess that’s not the one using the motherboard watchdog function.

sylverstream,

Yes, thanks for that. Good point. I checked the logs, and minutes before it crashed I can see below in the logs. Seems like either a GPU error or out of memory error. No idea what tracker-miner-f is by the way. It also shows a massive list of processes with their memory usage.

This goes beyond my knowledge :(

sylverstream,

Thanks mate. It was a bit of a rabbit hole, I found stuff about the watchdog package, and you can configure it to use the iTCO_wdt module, but I also read it was blacklisted, and then I just gave up. I posted somewhere else in the thread what lead up to the hang. And, I think I’ll buy a WiFi smartplug so I can remotely reboot everything; assuming the WiFi still works :D

sylverstream,

Thanks! Yeah it seemed to be an OOM issue, but based on my Kagi qualities it seems like an OS issue. But, it also has an error about the GPU. Normal memory usage is more than fine, so perhaps it was a one time thing. See logs: lemmy.nz/comment/6192604

sylverstream,

Thanks, but a data center is probably overkill for my needs. I’ve got it power loss protected with a UPS, and that’s more than enough for us. Thanks anyway :)

I have a RPI, but of course that one can hang too. I’ll buy a simple WiFi smart plug, standalone, as a kill switch.

sylverstream,

Yeah tracker miner sounds dodgy. I’ve only installed Immich & Frigate on the box, and no dodgy repositories. It’s also auto updating. Will do research how to check for malware, thought that was a Windows only thing :D

sylverstream,

Yeah think I’ll get a standalone WiFi smart plug, not connected to my Home Assistant, as a kill switch. But you’re right, it’s overkill.

I found some weird things in the logs, this goes beyond my knowledge :( See lemmy.nz/comment/6192604

sylverstream,

Thanks, it’s so awesome to see so many useful replies here! If you are interested, I found some very weird things in the logs :( lemmy.nz/comment/6192604

sylverstream,

I’ve uninstalled it, it’s an index/search tool. Don’t need it :D

sylverstream,

Thanks heaps, that’s is very useful. Will connect monitor and keyboard and have a look.

sylverstream,

That is good to know! Will keep an eye on memory usage of immich. I really like it, so I’m reluctant to let it go.
