Raspberry Pi 3B+ : Support for Allo DigiOne (Signature)
#1
Hi there

I am wondering what sort of HAT is supported as there must be a bunch of potential Raspberry Pi user looming around?  I am currently testing out ver 1.1.3.  What I am trying to achieve is to use Lumin app (from iPad) to feed music to the Pi that has the Allo's DigiOne Signature.

I am not seeing the Allo supported in Music Player - ALSA Output Devices

Any insight would be helpful, thanks in advance.

Cheers

You need to add the overlay for the Allo DigiOne Signature to /boot/config.txt.. (any device supported by current kernel should work)
If you ssh into your pi running Snakeoil and run...
Code:
nano /boot/overlays/README
you should find the dtoverlay that applies.
See here for  how I added the dtoverlay for a HiFiBerry digi+Pro.  I2S and I2C lines need to be activated too...

whilst ssh in run...
Code:
 
sudo raspi-config 
and activate I2S and I2C

Sweet dreams Bromf, thanks for your input.

Somehow, I put in the dtoverlay=allo-digione & enabled I2S and I2C in the CONFIG.TXT by removing the #(which is valid as this is in the README file), but in RASPI-CONFIG, interface sub-menu, there is no tab for I2S, only I2C, SPI, SSH etc.  In the web interface SNAKEOIL/    ALSA Output Devices, Client is still in RED cannot start client

grateful for any input, thx

Ah... yes I was going from memory there....no I2S to activate in raspi-config you are correct.
Have you entered allo-digione as the Name in Alsa Configuration in the Music Player tab of the Snakeoil web interface and rebooted ?

Can you post the full content of /boot/config.txt

Currently my kernel line in /boot/config.txt shows..
Code:
kernel=kernel-4.14.66-rt40-pi-snakeoil

From my previous post...."Have you entered allo-digione as the Name in Alsa Configuration in the Music Player tab of the Snakeoil web interface and rebooted ?" ??

Not sure about the line in your boot/config.txt
Code:
start_x=0

This does not appear in mine.

I did put down the "allo-digione" into the Music Player and rebooted, but it was shown in red, [HW:0,0], and mpd is not started nor I can launch "mpd --version" in command line.

below is from aplay -L 
Code:
 
null
    Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
default:CARD=sndallodigione
    snd_allo_digione,
    Default Audio Device
sysdefault:CARD=sndallodigione
    snd_allo_digione,
    Default Audio Device
dmix:CARD=sndallodigione,DEV=0
    snd_allo_digione,
    Direct sample mixing device
dsnoop:CARD=sndallodigione,DEV=0
    snd_allo_digione,
    Direct sample snooping device
hw:CARD=sndallodigione,DEV=0
    snd_allo_digione,
    Direct hardware device without any conversions
plughw:CARD=sndallodigione,DEV=0
    snd_allo_digione,
    Hardware device with all software conversions

I will try to burn a fresh sd card and try from scratch and report back.   Big Grin

Hi Bernard. Did mpd v21 work for you before? It seems to be missing a library now. Can you SSH into the pi, and run the following?

Code:
sudo ldconfig
