I only have #LogitechMediaServer to setup now on Beastie and then I can shutdown the old Ubuntu server. 😀

For all people here that use #Squeezebox and Lyrion Music Server. There is a community firmware update for Squeezebox Radio, Touch and Controller. I wrote a blogpost why and how to update to the latest version: 8.5.0.

@gnulinux Ich nutze seit Jahren ein #LMS in Kombination mit #max2play bzw. #squeezelite. LMS verfügt über ettliche Plugins u.a. auch für #spotify. Falls du den noch nicht kennst, check it out. 🙂

#logitechmediaserver

Gestern war's nun soweit: mysqueezebox.com wurde abgeschaltet. Darum habe ich eben mal testweise den #LogitechMediaServer auf dem Laptop angeworfen. Dank des letzten Firmware-Updates für das #UESmartRadio konnte es sich direkt mit der #OpenSource-Software verbinden. 😍 Im Endeffekt liebäugle ich aber mit dem #piCorePlayer.

Die Abhängigkeit zu #Logitech war mir immer ein Dorn im Auge. Aber sie betrieben den Server mehr als 10 Jahre weiter und haben danach die Möglichkeit, … 1/2

#Internetradio

For anyone who's using Squeezebox. It's time to spin up your own Squeezebox server because tomorrow mysqueezebox will shut down.

Setting up your own Squeezebox server is not hard to do. Just take a humble Raspberry Pi. Install Raspberry Pi OS, (or another Linux flavor) and install Logitech Media Server on top of it. A full instruction of mine can be found here.

I have been migrating my home server from #TrueNAS core to TrueNAS scale over the past few weeks. Before the holidays I had my most essential services running (#HomeAssistant and #LogitechMediaServer), and now on a rainy winter Saturday I'm trying to finish the migration. Overall, it has been OK, I wasn't thrilled about the loss of #FreeBSD jails and a migration to #kubernetes containers, but I realize that is the way the work is going, and I am hoping that things are better supported.

My life would be simpler if software were packaged properly (not shipping a whole bunch of conflicting libraries within the package that are also available as OS packages) and written in memory safe languages (Segmentation fault says C via perl). Anyway, my music plays again! Shame about the collateral damage to the display manager... #Upgrades #rPI #Squeezelite #Logitechmediaserver

I've always wanted a button under my desk. You know "release the hounds" or a trapdoor for minions who've fallen out of favour.

This one pauses/unpauses the music. Double press skips to next track.

Ikea #zigbee button talking to #homeassistant which calls #logitechmediaserver for the music actions.

@stolenprivacy Genau wegen sowas hab' ich im Frühjahr die #Squeezebox mit dem defekten WLAN gegen ein Pi Pico mit kleinem Amp und Touchscreen ersetzt.
Billiger und einfacher wäre der Discounter gewesen, aber Pi Core Player wird nicht via #enshittification dicht gemacht und der #LogitechMediaServer steht bei mir in der Wohnung.

(Mein erster #PiCorePlayer war https://burningbecks.wordpress.com/2017/01/10/the-legacy-of-the-squeezebox/ - und der läuft immer noch.)

In my ongoing quest to #Selfhost everything and anything, I've now added #LogitechMediaServer, and flashed my Raspiaudio ESPMuse Luxe with #Squeezelite.

Through this, it - at last - lets me cast music from my #Navidrome server to the Luxe. And - thanks to a plugin that ships with LMS - also my begrudgingly tolerated Google smartspeakers via the same interface.

Their continued existance is based entirely on leased time though.

Soon, they too shall be replaced with #cloudless alternatives.

AntiX Linux running well now on my HP Mini 210-1100 now with the 500GB Samsung 870 EVO SSD!

If you had to choose one to use as a personal music streamer, which would you choose? I'm leaning towards #Navidrome because there seems to be more options on Android that works with #subsonic. I think I'll try #LogitechMediaServer when I get a #raspberrypi.

• SB Player: integrates nicely with Squeeze Ctrl (of course, same developer) and while Squeeze Player does not support fade out/in, SB Player always has small gaps between titles, even if listening to a single mp3 with a cue sheet. This is a no go in my ears, that's why I stick with Squeeze Player
• Squeezelite in Termux: too nerdy 🤓 might be possible to somehow hack something with Tasker, but I just tried this as "proof of concept"

• Squeezer: I don't like the low res cover art in the Android media notification 😅
• LMS: Of course one of the best controllers as it uses the web frontend, but it doesn't use the Android media notification at all

@kelbot @redeagle This is dated now, but I had some bad experiences with mpd: https://changelog.complete.org/archives/9280-sound-players-adventures-with-ampache-mpd-pulseaudio-raspberry-pi-and-logitech-media-server and https://changelog.complete.org/archives/7576-decisions-on-listening-to-music .

The really nice thing about #LogitechMediaServer / #SlimServer / #SqueezeBox is that from my control app, I can control every player in the house. Turn them on/off, add them to the sync group or remove them (so they play things standalone), adjust volume, etc. Very nice, and all this can be done from an Android app, in addition to basic music selection.

Greetings from a small #mastodon server running in docker on a #raspberrypi 3 with a whopping 1GB of memory :D

couldn't find a pre-built armv7 image so built it myself with #docker #buildx

Don't think I will be accepting (m)any registrations though ;)

there's even enough room for a #logitechmediaserver so my music collection also runs from here now.

@dbx

Also bei mir läuft #picoreplayer in mehreren Instanzen auf einem #Raspberry an dem zwei 7.1-USB-Soundkarten angeschlossen sind...

Als Zuspieler wird #LogitechMediaServer verwendet, ob sich da aber Spotify iwie einbinden lässt weiß ich nicht...

#Multiroom #diy

@kelbot What do you use for your music server? Been doing #LogitechMediaServer (thanks @CarlCravens for that recommendation years ago) and #Ampache here. LMS for streaming synced to devices in the house, Ampache for remotely.

Die letzten Tage konnte ich Erfolge mit meinem #Kubernetes-#Cluster verbuchen... 💪

Folgende #Dienste konnte ich via #Ansible #deploy|en:
#LogitechMediaServer
#PiHole
#UnifiController
#Jellyfin > will nur noch nicht mit meinen #KODI synchen 🤨

Auch der #CertManager läuft jetzt und konnte für ein Testdeployment schon ein #Zertifikat erhalten 🤓

#Nextcloud läuft lokal auch schon...

#ejabberd und #SmartHomeNG steht noch auf der Agenda...

#MicroK8s

@jedie

Also mein Ziel ist es alle meine #Dienste auf #MicroK8s zu migrieren...

im Moment habe ich schon ein paar interne Sachen(#LogitechMediaServer, #UnifiController) damit laufen...

Wenn ich das mit den Zertifikaten mal in den Griff bekomme soll meine #Nextcloud und #ejabberd auch umziehen...

#kubernetes #selfhosting

🎶 Vorhin noch meinen #LMS wieder fit gemacht...

damit wir heute #Weihnachtsmusik genießen können 🎅
