[SlimDevices: Radio] [Help] Wrong art on screen, music stops after 25s

[Bipox]

I think it's when I use Spotty but I'm not sure.

I can change tracks, but either the squeezebox's sleep screen is shown,
or the previous album art, instead of the actual album art of the track
playing.

Music sound stops after 25 or so, but I can still see track progression
continuing on the server.

Also Spotty plays all tracks at 705kbps (converted to FLAC), even if I
specify 92 or 128kbps in the options.

Is this a known issue?

Thanks for reading!

Please try to figure this one out, because it's crucial.

Using Spotty? Or anything?

What kind of player? Where is LMS running?

This is just a display "issue": all data, no matter what input bitrate,
is converted to FLAC or PCM. You only get to see the bitrate of the
stream sent to the player, not the one you download.

Not sure if this is similar -

@mherger:

I will troubleshoot the problem some more as to be sure it's because of
Spotty.

LMS is installed on a 16.04 Ubuntu home server. I have a Squeezebox
Radio only. When playback fails on the Radio, I can still see it playing
on LMS page.
I use "Squeeze ctrl" on android as remote (and sometimes iPeng on iOS)

I figured about FLAC, forgot to edit my post.

@castalla:

I don't think it's the same issue. Artwork (and playback) work fine in
the LMS gui.

The web page has a life of its own: it would only poll the server every
few seconds, therefore it might pretend to be playing still a few
seconds after it ended.

Would these apps show the unit as playing, too?

Yes, playing continues on the apps too.

I don't think anymore Spotty is the issue. I have strange issues, like
the radio going into sleep suddenly, and with the wrong screensaver (my
previous one). I can launch for example a radio feed again but screen
stays in screensaver mode.

I think a complete reinstall would be the way to go.

What do you think? Reset the radio and complete reinstall of LMS?
