Yeah I don’t want to use another app. Therefore I’ve subbed to Spotify premium and that works perfectly with Snapcast. Can use the Spotify app to play to all snapclient speakers.

Thanks! Yeah, saw there was a yt plugin but not for ytm. The plugin for ma is also a bit flaky and auths via cookies, so not proper auth.

I’ve subbed to Spotify and it works like a charm. Can select Snapcast directly from any Spotify app and then it plays on all snapclient speakers in sync.

Thanks! Yeah think YT music is going to be hard or impossible. Other than this, I like it better than Spotify.

Will have a look at those two options.

AC Lite. It doesn’t need controller, it’s standalone. I configure it via the mobile app.

It’s a standalone AP. No controller. Two different SSIDs.

I’ve had it running now for 2 hours and of course now it works. The only change since last time is that I’ve reset the AP and did a firmware upgrade. Perhaps that fixed it…

There’s only a single DHCP server, a Pihole, which also serves as DNS. Switch B is a cheaper switch, so that may be the culprit. I use it for heavy downloading from my Xbox and that is never a big issue. Speeds fluctuate from 100 to 900mbps (my max) but that’s not necessarily a switch problem.

Yep, thanks for checking, there’s only 1 DHCP server on my network. I’ve just moved it back to behind switch B and will do more investigation when the problem occurs again.

I’ve just moved it back to behind switch B, will do testing as you suggest.

The switch doesn’t have POE, the Unifi AP does use POE via its own POE injector.

Thanks. I’ve recently reset it, it has its own IP via DHCP. I’ve just moved it back to behind switch B, will do testing as you suggest.

I’m using Kagi and can’t be happier.

Yes, but I think it’s because of OpenVino. Some other people with Intel HD using OpenVino had similar issues. I’ve just switched to another model based on this post.

It has integrated Intel graphics, not a separate GPU.

That is good to know! Will keep an eye on memory usage of immich. I really like it, so I’m reluctant to let it go.

Thanks heaps, that’s is very useful. Will connect monitor and keyboard and have a look.

I’ve uninstalled it, it’s an index/search tool. Don’t need it :D

Thanks, it’s so awesome to see so many useful replies here! If you are interested, I found some very weird things in the logs :( https://lemmy.nz/comment/6192604

Yeah think I’ll get a standalone WiFi smart plug, not connected to my Home Assistant, as a kill switch. But you’re right, it’s overkill.

I found some weird things in the logs, this goes beyond my knowledge :( See https://lemmy.nz/comment/6192604

Yeah tracker miner sounds dodgy. I’ve only installed Immich & Frigate on the box, and no dodgy repositories. It’s also auto updating. Will do research how to check for malware, thought that was a Windows only thing :D

Thanks, but a data center is probably overkill for my needs. I’ve got it power loss protected with a UPS, and that’s more than enough for us. Thanks anyway :)

I have a RPI, but of course that one can hang too. I’ll buy a simple WiFi smart plug, standalone, as a kill switch.

Thanks! Yeah it seemed to be an OOM issue, but based on my Kagi qualities it seems like an OS issue. But, it also has an error about the GPU. Normal memory usage is more than fine, so perhaps it was a one time thing. See logs: https://lemmy.nz/comment/6192604
