Its now working and sounding very good.

When I was running squeezelitewin.exev17 I was able to change the output settings in local player so that I can use my USB converter.

I have now installed squeezelitewin.exev18 and I am still getting audio through my USB converter but now on the local player does not have options to change the output device settings.

I have stopped and started LMS a few times but the option does not come back.

Is this intentional in v18?

Its not a major issue because I am getting audio out of the device that I want to use.. but I still would like to know why.

If anyone can advise me that would be very nice.
thank you.

If you back up little bit, and follow story about .bat file which calls squeezelite-win.exe, you will find answer to your question. When you call it with that batch program you actually passing your device as a parameter to the SL-win. The second .bat is used to list your devices, that you can paste into the first one, but it didn't work. The only way for me was to run one of the old versions to read exact name of my device, and I inserted it into that .bat, everything came to normal.
I hope this helps.

Yes I have. Sql v18/19 (can't hear any big differences) + portaudio v17 souds best so far imo, but... portaudio100x0 has more microdetails.
Still don't know what to choose :)

taggart wrote:Have written a console program some month ago that allows to set priority class and affinity mask to programs you wish to start (Mode: -exe) or to already running processes (Mode: -set).
Additionally it's possible to set priority and/or affinity to all running processes except some excluded ones (Mode: -all).
The latter can be used to lower all processes except JLP, MQn etc. for example.

Tasker.exe has no runtime dependencies and might be useful for those of you who are about to play around with those settings.
Calling tasker.exe without any parameter will prompt usage, short description and some typical examples.

Code: Select all

Usage:
tasker -exe -x process [-r params] [-s show] [-p priority] [-a affinity] [-e]
tasker -set -x process [-p priority] [-a affinity] [-e]
tasker -all [-x excluded] [-p priority] [-a affinity] [-e]

       -exe   Execute <process>.
       -set   Set priority class and/or affinity mask for running <process>.
       -all   Set priority class and/or affinity mask for all running
              processes excecpt processes listed in <excluded>.

       -x process       Process to be executed or set.
       -x excluded      Processes to be excluded (Mode:-all).
                        Use Pipe-Symbol for separation. See example #3.

       -r params        Parameters for <process> to be executed.
       -s show          Display mode for <process>.
                        {hidden|normal|maximized|minimized}
       -p priority      Priority class for <process>.
                        {dontchange|low|belownormal|normal|
                         abovenormal|high|realtime}
       -a affinity      Affinity mask for <process>.
                        E.g. on a machine with four cores use:
                        0001 to bind <process> to Core #0 only.
                        0010 to bind <process> to Core #1 only.
                        1010 to bind <process> to Core #1 and #3.
                        1111 to bind <process> to all Cores.
       -e               Eliminates all console messages.

Examples:
tasker -exe -x "D:\Special.exe" -r "D:\Test.txt" -s normal -p high -a 0010 -e
tasker -set -x "Cool.exe" -p realtime -a 0010
tasker -all -x "Special.exe|Cool.exe" -p low -a 1101 -e
tasker -all -p low -a 1101

Example 1 (see at the end of code section):
Runs "D:\Special.exe" with parameter "D:\Test.txt", shows it normal, sets priority to "high", sets affinity to core #1. No console messages.

Example 2:
Runs "Cool.exe", sets priority to "realtime", sets affinity to core #1.

Example 3:
Sets priority of all running processes (except "Special.exe and Cool.exe) to "low" and binds them to core #0, core #2 and core #3. No console messages.

Example 4:
Sets priority of all running processes to "low" and binds them to core #0, core #2 and core #3.

Cheers, Christoph

Here also using iPeng, start/pause/stop just work OK.
