Posted by: Eso - 17-Jan-2021, 05:56 PM - Forum: Support & Troubleshooting - Replies (2)

Hi. Running old 0.1.5 on jetway MB. Have it on SSD. I have tried a fresh install using usb iso but no joy at all. Not sure if there is a way to copy iso to new ssd and reboot from there?
Thanks
Rob

Let's all give a warm welcome to our first (and probably only) sponsor! Sublime Hifi! Who generiously help provide the bare metal server to host the Snakeoil project. Now with his help we can be assured that Snakeoil project will have a good system to run on for at least the next 11 months.

I know him personally for several years now. I can't really speak for his business mind (Have you seen his old website?!). But what I do know is he's an audiophile first, and a passionate audiophile at that!

If you're in Australia or NZ, and want some obscure things related to audiophile computer parts or tweaks (the ones especially shunned by measureabters), do hit him up for a chat. Click on the sponsor link to visit his site. Note not all products/brands he carries are are listed, contact him for any queries.

Check out this quick post here describing how the new server works.

  Buffering pauses in MPD?
Posted by: emptor - 14-Dec-2020, 09:37 PM - Forum: Support & Troubleshooting - Replies (4)

Hi everyone, still loving my snakeoil MPD setup.

I run 2 DACs, they both excel in different types of music.

I​​​​​​ noticed something today where some FLAC songs whilst playing on one of the DACs (Gieseler Gross) sometimes has momentary pauses, for a split second, like its catching up. But on the Denafrips this doesn't occur. Both DACs connected via USB same exact cables to the NUC.

But the Gieseler has no issues with DSF files.

Could it be the USB amenero firmware on the Gieseler? I could try installing a different firmware version.

Another possibility could be that I've enabled 2 out of the 4 USB ports on the NUC? I have USB cables going out if each USB port to the DACs. But snakeoil only connects to one at a time so don't think this is the issue but I could try enable only 1 usb port and do some troubleshooting manually changing the cables.

I do have advanced features of snakeoil so have done some things like CPUSET etc.

  Installing Snakeoil on a 2012 Mac Mini
Posted by: gasman - 14-Dec-2020, 04:08 AM - Forum: Support & Troubleshooting - Replies (2)

Hi

I'm trying to install SO on a 2012 Mac Mini

I'm using the 64 bit ISO (latest version of SO) and use balenaEtcher to make a bootable USB

The Mac has a new SSD in (I've taken out the OSX drive)

When I alt-boot I get 'EFI boot' as the only option, but when I select that I get a grub error

error: disk '' not found
entering rescue mode ...
grub rescue >

When I tried with the OSX disk in I got a similar error that dropped me to the rescue prompt

Any thoughts anyone how I might troubleshoot this?

Many thanks

  MP3's not playing on Roon
Posted by: frednork - 12-Dec-2020, 06:07 AM - Forum: Support & Troubleshooting - Replies (9)

I dont seem to be able to play mp3's using Roon server on Snakeoil OS. Am sure I used to be able to but dont play them often so not sure when things changed.
I asked at Roon forums  here but so far they think "This seems to indicate a version conflict between ffmpeg and libraries on your system it depends on"

This is not device dependant
