SlabPi is the replacement for [[Slab]] on a [https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-4-model-b/ Raspberry Pi 4]. It has been moved, because of [[downscaling]]. And recently got upgraded from a rpi3 to a rpi4, it has a DAC+ Hat for better audio quality.
It will be challenged with as much infra a Raspberry Pi can handle.


It runs the MPD Server and espeak, other audio related things and a label printer. It is running on [https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/ Raspbian Stretch Lite].
*OS: [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RaspberryPi Ubuntu 19.10 aarch64]
*Rpi: Raspberry pi 4 4GB
*SD: 32GB


A DAC+ Hat has been added for better audio quality.
== Setup ==


=== Disabled/removed services ===
* disabled unattented-upgrades
* disabled wpa_supplicant
* disabled accounts-daemon
* disabled multipathd
* ubuntu motd spam
* removed snapd


Recently we switch to using Pulseaudio which allows us to have multiple-streams, multi-room audio, and somehow allow people to send audio to the slabpi (Untested).
=== Networking ===
It is hooked up with UTP. WLAN has been disabled.

<s>Currently runs through LiquidSoap, so there is a +- 30 second delay. Ask [[User:R3boot|r3boot]] ;).</s>
 
Fixed an issue where MPD hangs on song change. Fix it by uncommenting "device" option in the "audio_output" block (in my case ALSA) in mpd.conf.
This is a common error.

==PulseAudio==
===PulseAudio===
The SlabPI is now running PulseAudio, this allows multiple streams to be play simultaneously without having to stop/kill MPD.
All pulseaudio changes need to be made in /etc/pulse/sytem.pa (default.pa isn't used)


<s>Eventually, PulseAudio will be made accessible through the network so everyone can dump their audio to the Slabpi.</s>
Pulseaudio is running as a system-wide daemon, it's default sample rate is set to 48Khz and priority has been set to real time.
Pulseaudio should be accessible over the network, I don't really know yet if it really works though.


==Icecast==
===Icecast===
There is an icecast server running again on port 8050. It's a direct feed from Pulseaudio so all sounds (Entrance themes, speak commands) will be heard on the stream. Perhaps I'll eventually make MPD send to icecast as well for a "clean signal"

What

SlabPi is the replacement for Slab on a Raspberry Pi 4. It has been moved, because of downscaling. And recently got upgraded from a rpi3 to a rpi4, it has a DAC+ Hat for better audio quality.

Setup

Disabled/removed services

  • disabled unattented-upgrades
  • disabled wpa_supplicant
  • disabled accounts-daemon
  • disabled multipathd
  • ubuntu motd spam
  • removed snapd

Networking

It is hooked up with UTP. WLAN has been disabled.

==

DAC+

PiFi HIFI DAC+ for better audio quality.

Installation:

Edit /boot/config.txt

Disable the line

#dtparam=audio=on

add

dtoverlay=hifiberry-dacplus

MPD

Host: slabpi.dhcp.nurd.space

Port: 6600 (Technically 6005, see the mpd proxy service)

It is integrated with Home Assistant view on Jarvis.

HTTPD outputs:

  • port 6666 (8000:16:1) used by the VOIP system
  • port 7777 (44100:16:2) used by Audiophiles

PulseAudio

All pulseaudio changes need to be made in /etc/pulse/sytem.pa (default.pa isn't used)

Pulseaudio is running as a system-wide daemon, it's default sample rate is set to 48Khz and priority has been set to real time.

Icecast

There is an icecast server on port 8000. It's a direct feed from Pulseaudio so all sounds (Entrance themes, speak commands) will be heard on the stream.

Mount point(s):

  • /nurds (Pulseaudio)

MPD Control

For those not wanting to install a MPD client, there's a stand alone MPD web interface running called Mympd on port 80

Labelprinter implementation

Labelprinter is up and running. See Labelprinter.
