Thanks; I´m comtemplating on battery and/or regulated power suplies for Alix and usb-Dac QNKTC AB-1.2 USB DAC (highly recommended!)

(first try will probably be 12V battery supply for the Alix)

Fin You have made the correct change. You can go back in with nano and see what you now have. You can alternatively use the command less instead of nano to simply list the contents of the file. I always save in nano by using cntrl O then confirm the file then exit. I did not realize you can just ex...

Forgive my ignorance, but, I cannot find the init.d file you were talking, in the init.d directory can't find the file to define the priorities, can you please give me the path? Thank you. look in the /etc directory you will see another directory called init.d, within it you will se a file with mpd...

Do you mean you have the music library on the HDD on the mpdPup machine? Yes; would like to compare SQ between local 2.5 Hdd to musiclibrary over network - as well as have the possibility to bring the machine to friends for listening (have the ability to connect KVM if necessary). Will check out Fi...

Is there a way to add/remove music files on a headless Mpd-machine when using local sata hdd as storage?

Also connected to router is a Windows Pc

There's no way to do this through the setup wizards, but if you want to test Secret Rabbit Code it's just a matter of hand-editing mpd.conf to enable it for a sound output. Editing mpd.conf is fine with me; libsamplerate working fine.. SOX, however, is causing a "connection refused" error...

Upsampling is included. 0.9.2 had Secret Rabbit Code built in and configurable in the audio-output section and Idolese has now included SOX upsampling in 0.9.3 with multiple audio-outputs for each SOX setting. I find both excellent enhancements to 44.1/16 files, which is all I have. Is there a way ...

Thanks for your answer, will try to clarify: What 'abovementioned' error are you referring to? If mpc listall is working then then I would guess it's a soundcard issue. If you attempt to play an album does mpc or ncmpc show that it's actually playing (regardless of whether you hear it). Did you type...

Hi Idolse Being Linux-newbie I appreciate your work (learned alot allready, I think :-) I set up the Mpdpup v0.9.3 for using local, NFTS stored Music files (Wav, Flac etc) but get the abovementioned Error (regardless of trying to play Wav or Flac-files) I can connect to the Pup-pc using Putty and GM...
