Raspberry PI5 8GB#
Getting Started
Case#
I used the case "Raspberry PI5 Case Acryl with FAN" from mindfactory. There seem to be many different "acryl cases" in the market, e.g. you cannot expect to get the same everywhere. My fan in this package had a two pin adapter only, which you can apply to the GPIO pins 4+5
Finally I disabled the fan as I have only max 60°C only (see temparature).
OS#
I installed Raspberry PI 5 / Raspberry PI OS 64bit on 128GB microSD via Imager SoftwareNote: Settings has three tabs !
- name = raspberrypi5
- Enable SSH !
- Enable WLAN
Update:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo reboot
The Squeezebox Radio needs an IP address (see below), so I activated in FritzBox to give the same IP always to "raspberrypi5".
Samba#
Add samba service to share with windows>sudo apt-get install samba # Samba user, same password: > sudo smbpasswd -a <user> > sudo mkdir /var/log/samba }} > sudo vi /etc/samba/smb.conf add something like: [global] workgroup = WORKGROUP # MARKUS ADDED netbios name = LINUXSERVER lanman auth = no ntlm auth = yes client lanman auth = no wins support = yes local master = yes preferred master = yes # MARKUS ADDED [Musik] comment=Raspberry Pi Share path = /media browseable = yes writeable = yes read only = no only guest = no create mask = 0775 directory mask = 0755 public = no force user = markusWrite permissions on windows are shared on Linux level:
> sudo chmod a+rwx /mediaLinux Commands
note: you see the shares used only if some user uses currently, otherwise check config
> sudo service smbd restart > sudo smbcontrol all reload-config > samba --version => Version 4.17.12-Debian > systemctl status smbd > sudo smbstatus > sudo smbstatus --shares > sudo pdbedit -L -v > cat /var/log/samba/log.smbd

Temperature and Power#
PowerYou cannot properly messure power consumption in PI, app "powertop" cannot be used due to missing batterie.
> vcgencmd measure_volts => volt = 0,7200VI used a smart power adapter from Gosund to check:
- 3,0 - 3,4W while idle/streaming
- 3,6 - 3,9W while copying files via Samba
Temperature
You can use Linux for checking that:
> sudo cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/tempSome Linux background about temperatures:
see folder /sys/class/thermal/
=> zones, PI5 has one only = thermal_zone0
note: values like 60050 = 60,05°C
file | description | value |
---|---|---|
type | Type of the thermal zone | cpu-thermal |
temp | Current temperature | 56,0 - 60,5 °C without fan in arcyl case |
mode | Working mode of the thermal zone | enabled |
policy | Thermal governor used for this zone | step_wise |
available_policies | Available thermal governors for this zone | step_wise |
trip_points | temp=temperature/type=type/hyst=Hysteresis value for this trip point | 0 critical / 110 °C / 0 |
1 active / 50 °C / 5 | ||
2 active / 60 °C / 5 | ||
3 active / 67,5 / 5 | ||
4 active / 75 °C / 5 | ||
slope | Slope constant applied as linear extrapolation | -550 |
sustainable_power | Sustainable dissipatable power | 0 |
k_po | Proportional term during temperature overshoot | 0 |
k_pu | Proportional term during temperature undershoot | 0 |
k_i | PID's integral term in the power allocator gov | 0 |
k_d | PID's derivative term in the power allocator | 0 |
integral_cutoff | Offset above which errors are accumulated | 0 |
offset | Offset constant applied as linear extrapolation | 450000 |
Current CPU frequency
> cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq => 15000000 > vcgencmd measure_clock arm => frequency(0)=1500004352

I followed more or less StepByStep Instructions by Harald Kreuzer.
Disable swap file
sudo service dphys-swapfile stop sudo systemctl disable dphys-swapfile sudo apt-get purge dphys-swapfile sudo apt autoremove sudo vi /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt ADD at the end of line >noswap< console=[...] noswap sudo vi /etc/fstab ADD: # Log to RAM tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,noatime,nosuid,mode=1777,size=256m 0 0 tmpfs /var/log tmpfs defaults,noatime,nosuid,mode=0755,size=128m 0 0 tmpfs /var/tmp tmpfs defaults,noatime,nosuid,mode=0755,size=128m 0 0
Install LMS (Logitech Media Server)#
sudo apt-get install libsox-fmt-all libflac-dev libfaad2 sudo apt-get install libio-socket-ssl-perl sudo apt-get install libcrypt-openssl-bignum-perl sudo apt-get install libcrypt-openssl-random-perl sudo apt-get install libcrypt-openssl-rsa-perl # download ARM version Debian ! wget https://downloads.slimdevices.com/LogitechMediaServer_v8.5.0/logitechmediaserver_8.5.0_arm.deb (note: NOT the ARM tgz = .tar.gz => tar xvf *.tgz) sudo dpkg -i logitechmediaserver_8.5.0_arm.deb # to test at window you need lame too sudo apt-get -y install lame
sudo service logitechmediaserver start sudo service logitechmediaserver stop sudo service logitechmediaserver restart
WebGUI: http://raspberrypi5:9000/
You can listen to selected stream with http://raspberrypi5:9000/stream.mp3
Enable at radio
Settings in radio see https://lms-community.github.io/getting-started/migrate-from-uesr-de/
UPNP/DLNA => Settings > Plugins verwalten > enable "UPnP/DLNA Media Interface (v1.0)
Custom URL #
Note: WebGUI > Radio > URL laden - does not save the URL- Create m3u file like
#EXTM3U <= must be first line #EXTINF:<seconds>,<track title>
examples:
#EXTM3U #EXTINF:295,Starlight Express - AC/DC MyCDs\Starlight Express - Starlight Express, Bochum 1991\Starlight Express - 05 ACDC.mp3
#EXTM3U #EXTINF:0,Radio BOB http://streams.radiobob.de/bob-national/mp3-192/mediaplayer2. copy in the folder which is configured in settings > Grundeinstellungen > Wiedergabenlisten-Ordner
3. After changes: Settings > "Durchsuchen starten" (auch für Wiedergabelisten)
4. At radio you can choose Eigene Musik > Wiedergabelisten; you can even save that as favorite
