Re: [locustream mailing list] config for iqAudio Pi-CodecZero
by aid 06 Jan '22

06 Jan '22

Grant suggested I try some changes, and this is what I've done: In /boot/streambox.txt - changed to soundcard=0 - Added login, wifi details In /boot/config.txt - added dtoverlay=iqaudio-codec In /etc/dhcpcd.conf - added static domain_name_servers=8.8.4.4 8.8.8.8 Also verified that the streambox server comes up on a different rpi, so the config is correct, it's just not working with the rpi zero w? is there a system change that breaks wifi for my rpi zero w maybe?

There are a number of alsamixer settings to play with, so maybe the wifi noise can be eliminated there. Also I'm testing this beside a mess of synths and electricty so maybe i need to move the streambox somewhere less noisy. to bring up the box was as follows: changed in /boot/config.txt: #dtparam=audio=on dtoverlay=iqaudio-codec then, copy the IQaudIO_Codec_StereoMIC_record_and_HP_playback.state file to the streambox, ssh and sudo alsactl --file /home/locusonus/IQaudIO_Codec_StereoMIC_record_and_HP_playback.state restoresudo alsactl store will report if I can resolve the wifi noise issue. | | | | | | | | | | | iqaudio/Pi-Codec Tools for the IQaudIO Pi-Codec / CodecZero sound cards - iqaudio/Pi-Codec | | | On Wednesday, 6 May 2020, 14:12:38 BST, aid <oootini(a)yahoo.com> wrote: Hi folks, trying to set up an iqaudio Pi-CodecZero as described by Udo some days ago.

After AIR
by Grant Smith 16 Nov '21

Thanks very much, everybody, for running streams over the past two weeks. Thanks also to Locus Sonus for accommodating our attempts to broadcast 'soundscapes of the COP' - which we hope widened but sometimes no doubt over-stretched the creative frame of this project. And thanks for listening bw grant AIR

As if radio -- COP26 Glasgow -- call for streams
by Grant Smith 10 Nov '21

10 Nov '21

Dear list We're contributing to this project from 31 October to 12 November, proposing a mix of live environmental sounds, sound / transmission artworks, commentary and reports from activities happening in Glasgow and beyond. If you are interested to run or refresh a stream or set up a new stream in relation to the concerns of the project, we would be very happy to include this work in the schedule, which is coming together now. Read the call (still open for proposals) https://mailchi.mp/7027cb4b175a/air <https://mailchi.mp/7027cb4b175a/air> We were thinking, if it is not feasible to run a stream for the 2 weeks of the event, we could agree on which days or nights a stream might feature. We have a lot of airtime, so there is potential for long term listening to sounds of places in real time, which some of us here clearly like..
