Peppy Meter Basic - The plugin!

Thanx. Almost perfect. I would like it to switch at the beginning of each song or maybe have the ability to display the track number.

If plugin is enabled - @patrickkfkan YouTube music plugin does not work. If Peppymeter is disabled - YouTube works.

hi… i’ve installed peppyscreensaver from gelo5 guide. all ok but why don’t run?
what i can control?

Sorry but you are not on the good thread.
This for peppyneter basic only here.
Thanks to ask in the good place.

ok, i’ll write into correct section!

hey @balbuze
Am I right in thinking that Basic doesn’t work with YT Music and Spotify?

I see no reason to not work!
:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

edit: I re-checked on Volumio Bookworm and I confirm it works nicely with Spotify and Youtube2.
No freeze in this version!

Hm, something is set wrong. I bought Spotify and I’m playing around with the settings.
Everything works when I turn off Basic. Strange

What is your dac?
Can you send a log?
Did you reboot after settings Spotify?


Edit:

from NAS (works - music&basic):

Spotify (doesn’t work- the music is playing):

YT Music (doesn’t work - the music is not playing):

Sorry, I just had a quick view on logs. A lot of errors, but no clue…
Can you try to add FusionDsp and retry please?

Maybe you can turn off the DSP and check if it works?

@Gelo5
In Raspberry PI5 no audio via usb with Peppymeter basic and Bookworm

Best regards

Peppymeter Basic -----> @balbuze plugin

@Gelo5
In my case in on Bookworm 4.011 no audio via USB (Use alientek d8) if enable Peppymeter Basic, I have try different configuration also of mixer but nothing work for me

best regards

@frog67

  • Uninstall all plugins first, besides “Touch Display”
  • Upgrade to Bookworm V4.021
  • Install only Peppy_Meter_Basic

What are the results?
if it is still failing post a log.

The problem are when use the Youtube plugin, Peppy_Meter_Basic must be disable for use youtube plugin.
No ticket for our log if we are “free”…

Regards

I’m having a similar issues to some of the previous posts. I have my pi4 hooked up via USB to McIntosh DA2. Before installing Peppy Meter Basic plugin via the Volumio’s Plugin UI, I was able to play DSD/PCM@192khz. After installing the Peppy Meter plugin, the system would output any FLAC file playback at 44.1khz.

I’m assuming it’s something to do with ALSA but I have no idea where to start troubleshooting this. Any suggestion?

As designed, the alsa path of the plugin can’t work with DSD.
DSD have to be converted to Pcm to be use by peppy or FusionDsp.
I’ll plan to do something for next version for volumio 4…

I had my old Pi3 setup when Peppy Meter wasn’t an official plugin and somehow I was able to get the DSD to go through the VolumioHw first. I’ll have to dig up the old setup when I get some time.
