Solved: 8.3.7 Multiroom Receiver Static / No Audio
#1
Hello Folks --

I have a sender (ethernet)  and multiple receivers (wireless) that receive audio for about 20 hours a day. They all work flawlessly.  Recently, one receiver started to primarily goto static.  Then today it doesn't seem to be receiving any audio and also no static.  When testing locally, the default radio stations play, so no issues there.

I reloaded moode 8.3.7 and hand setup the device, vs a restore.  Still no audio.  The Sender does see the receiver.  Local audio works great.

Ideas?

Attaching System info for the receiver;
Hardware RPI 4 2gb with Hifi Berry Amp 100.

Thats odd especially since you verified that Radio stations play oK which indicates that the hardware and network connection are prolly ok on that device.

Couple things to try:

1. Reboot your wireless Router
2. Send to just that Receiver to see if the issue occurs

What's even weirder, I have a similar configuration in another room.  The big difference is the base hardware is a PI4 4gb and Hifi Berry Amp 100.

1. Did that already, I have a whole network of Ubiquity devices.
2. Already attempted to isolate.

Is there any other debugging logs I can dig up to troubleshoot?

Are the Advanded options for that particular receiver at their defaults?

That receiver (and the simiar functioning one) have the following setup;

ALSA Buffer 256
RTP Jitter 128
Opsu frame size 40
Realtime Priority 45

What would you like me to change?
