[PROBLEM] Auto-shuffle not working on Raspberry Zero with music library >33.000 flac files

[rylfas]

It works fine on my Pi-ZeroW. The collection I use for testing is ~ 4000 tracks on a NAS.

Assuming the ashuffle process has not crashed, and given that RAM usage looks OK in your case then troubleshooting is a matter of trying to find the bottleneck.

First make sure that ashuffle is running

Code:

pgrep -l ashuffle

Then try the command below to see if a process or thread is hogging the CPU

Code:

top -H

Hello Tim,

My Pi-ZeroW also works fine with the number of tracks you use for testing. The problem occurs with the large number of tracks mentioned.

I tried your commando and see no problems but atteched a screenshot.

Thank you for all your good work.

Kind regards,

Frank
