Thread: mpd player within Asus WL-500gP

  1. #16
    @pitsch
    I atached MPD 0.13.2-1 (as IPKG), I am quite sure its the last 0.13 release.
    This is the best working MPD for me at the moment.

    Will soon post some pictures of my new Crystalfontz display showing MPD informations

    thanks!

    seems that others with ARM CPUs run into similar issues. the developer is working on it, new release mpd 0.15 coming up soon.

    http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=517976

    disabling crossfade and gapless helps to free up some memory, for a certain price of course. the trick with the volume=100 didn't work for me, either switching off the software mixer. (its an OSS driver anyway)

    might be an idea to compile a "mpd-light" version with less functionality (mp3 only?, shoutcast...) and integer libsamplerate enabled.

    mpd 0.14 seems to have a more crisp sound though. need to do some AB-testing..

    Thanks thejew.
    That has more than halved my CPU load using mpd.

    If i can, i wold need an linux player for router an drivers for the sound card , no ? The soundcard is ESS USB Audio from Konig (cmp-soundusb12)

    PLEASE HELP IF YOU KNOW , AN IF YOU DON'T MAYBE YOU CAN GUIDE ME TO SOMEBODY ELSE !

    THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP !

    you may want to have a look at mightyohm's project. It's for WL-520GU, but the principle is the same.
    Good luck ...

    Seems tat soundcard is a bit of a problem; I have it too and the oleg firmware 'dmesg' command says:

    SB device 2 (vend/prod 0xc76/0x1605) is not claimed by any active driver

    On an Ubuntu Linux system this card is detected without any problems however:
    'SSS USB Headphone Set as /devices/pci0000:00/00'..etc...

    The setup of this box has me getting into linux a little bit, but I/m still very novice...I wonder if it's possible to incoorporate these drivers in an oleg wl-system?

    mpd crash

    Hi,
    mpd version 0.15.13-1 was working on my WL500gpv2 with firmware wl500g-1.9.2.7-d-r2174.
    I have make a "ipkg update" and "ipkg upgrade" yesterday and now mpd give me this error at start up:
    Illegal instruction
    Any help please?

  11. #26
    more informations:
    my USB sound card works with madplay command. MP3 just plays nice.
    dmesg command report nothing special when mpd crashes.

    Do you have a working WL500g with mpd?
    If yes, please tell me your firmware and mpd version.

    Probably an error in mpd
    They uploaded a new mpd on "25-Oct-2010 16:17" , so you might want to do another ipkg update and ipkg upgrade
    might fix it...

    unfortunately there are no backups available

    because of no answer probably NOT !

    Cool YEP FINALLY SOUND ON ROUTER

    It says that the search is the mother of understanding (romanians at least). SO I FOUND AN ANSWER FOR MY QUESTION !!!!!

    Premise: I get the next message when i plug my ESS USB Audio from Konig (cmp-soundusb12):

    Code:
    SB device 2 (vend/prod 0xc76/0x1605) is not claimed by any active driver
    SO

    I accidentally stumbled upon my old post about souncard on router , and i decided to be angry and give it a try. After a litle searching in the forums i've saw the solution, too simple to see it then (newbie , lol)

    Step 1: to test if the core is good for my soundcard ... i downloaded oleg's latest modules archive from here, then within windows i extracted the 2 files i neded from it: lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/sound - soundcore.o and lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/usb - audio.o .
    Step 2: i transfered them somewhere on my router's hdd:
    Ex: /tmp/harddisk/pbfiles, then i created there another directory named scripts (well it was created long ago, for me is an directory where i create scripts and make them executables etc). ALL THE OPERATIONS FOR EASY USE I DID IT WITH MC (midnight commander), read wengi's post about full config and MC here, and files transferred with ftp (i use total commander from my xp).

    STEP 3: I created in my Scripts directory a file nammed audio.start with this content:

    Code:
    sleep 5
    rmmod audio
    insmod /tmp/harddisk/pbfiles/soundcore.o
    insmod /tmp/harddisk/pbfiles/audio.o
    then i made it executable chmod +x audio.start

    Step4: i do not want to modify to many times my post-boot file, so i added just a line to my recently created executable from above.

    Code:
    /tmp/harddisk/scripts/audio.start
    the post boot file is in /usr/local/sbin/post-boot, I edited, after that I saved it, to commit the changes i gived the the router the reboot, flash command
    Code:
    flashfs save && flashfs commit && flashfs enable && reboot
    .

    And voila my log:

    Code:
    Jan  1 01:00:58 kernel: usbaudio: device 2 audiocontrol interface 0 has 1 input and 1 output AudioStreaming interfaces
    Jan  1 01:00:58 kernel: usbaudio: device 2 interface 2 altsetting 1 channels 1 framesize 2 configured

    Jan  1 01:00:58 kernel: audio.c: v1.0.0:USB Audio Class driver

    Of course that it was much simple just to add comands in post-boot file but i'm not an simple person ) .

    Tomorrow i will install an mp3 player on my router to test it ..... best wishes
