Hi Kent,
I honestly do not find the words to thank you for the advice, which I share and consider very useful, and for the confirmation of the operation of the instructions.
I try, below, to comment on the various points:
1) I was already thinking of a "github" that could be updated from time to time in order to have a unique one: in fact I'm working on a ".doc", with the aim of providing it with a decent look.
2) See point 1
3) You have touched a nerve: I am always afraid of not having the right permissions to write, read or execute, for this reason, in this first phase, I made the mistake, knowingly, of using the famous "sudo" too often. in the "github" version I will try to be more thrifty.
4) I had read on Peppy's documentation that it was important to have both in order to be able to use the "pi" user of the entire software chain. I will remove the creation of the configuration file under "/ home / pi".
5) I had already, in the early days, tried to avoid the modification of the "playerlib" and "worker" files, using the "loopback device" but with bad results.
Now I have seen that Adrian has experimented with a way to use it using the "graphic equalizer", but exclusively (https://github.com/antiprism/mpd_oled/is...-786840755), therefore, e.g. "mpd_oled" and "Peppymeter" could not coexist. I am studying how to prepare a proposal to request Tim to insert the option of adding an ALSA module in the "MPD Configuration" area: exclusively for adding an entry in "mpd.conf" (not for the configuration which could be in "/etc/asound.conf"), but first I want to make sure it works.
6) I have already forwarded your hypothesis as a proposal to the author of Peppymeter (https://www.diyaudio.com/forums/pc-based...67372.html). We try to resolve at source.
Thank you so much again and greetings,
Francis
