This suggests the console might not be loading properly. I've tested this extensively and it works in Linux (it's the only OS I'm using now). However, those tests were made in Firefox, which was my primary browser until 2 weeks ago (Firefox is now crashing all the time and is totally unusable).

Will test this with Brave and see how it goes.

Update: Updating from 1.2.2 -> 1.2.3 works for me in Brave. Console and logic should be working correctly if you see the "Please wait, processing" message. Do you also see a spinning cursor? Press F12, and go to the console window, any error messages in there?

I tried twice with vivaldi browser yesterdayand lost contact with the server.

I hard shut down the server and tried using chrome browser ChromeOS. Waiting with the "Please wait, Processing..." message, no spinning evident. I waited and closed the console. I dont have F12 on my Chromebook unfortunately so I couldnt follow in verbose mode.

I refreshed the chrome browser and it had updated to 1.2.3

I think I have to look at my settings in vivaldi, I may have pushed security too hard.

You should still be able to get to the debug console via a browser menu options.

This problem might go away when I move to Websockets. But that'll come later, gotta really finish my prep and work on kernel builder. Blush

I am trying to follow the MPD tweaks wiki, but I keep running into errors. Whenever I attempt to cd into mpd-v22 I keep getting a permission denied prompt (after using chmod).

I have a problem using LMS and upmpdcli for MPD playback using the Tidal plugin. The music plays through the computer (headless machine) speakers rather than passing through to the DAC. Will the tweak fix this issue? I have no problems using LMS + squeezelite and was able to use Tidal with MPD in Blind Listening firmwares.

Lastly, I've noticed the kernel options have been updating .97-.100. Are these subjective iterative improvements or some options to see what works best in one's system?

For most things you need to be operating as root. Try and run "sudo su" and switch to the root account, and then do your tweaks.

Did you configure MPD to use the DAC? Check the MPD configuration section and make sure it's selecting the ALSA output that corresponds to your DAC.

Stock kernels from Ubuntu doesn't usually have any tweaks for audio output. You'll usually need a RealTime kernel to get that benefits, basically CPU and IO schedulers are the big primary drivers of audio quality, and then there's something else I can't really explain. The key is to try and download various kernel versions, and find one that "just works" on your audio system. Hopefully I can get this done and when it does, this will make the Gear Isolation project feature complete.
