Jriver media center raspberry pi11/4/2023 I should mention that I have my music library for JRiver Media Center 21 on a Windows CIFS share, which you might think would cause audio latency problems, but, I've also tried attaching a Western Digital Black 7200 RPM 3 TB hard drive in a Macally external HDD enclosure, where my music library is on the HDD, and I noticed no difference. I'm running Raspbian at the moment with the kernel CPU governor set to "performance". I'm currently running JRiver Media Center 21 off of a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, from the Raspberry Pi Starter Kit which I bought a few months ago. Specifically, my audio setup is : My AV setup is : RPi->USB->Schiit Wyrd ( )->Audioquest Jitterbug ( )->Schiit Modi 2 Uber ( )->Schiit Magni 2 Uber ( )->Behringer XENYX 502 mixer ( )->M-Audio BX8 studio monitor speakers ( ) The new setup helped, but I could still hear the occasional click or pop. I then bought two AudioQuest Jitterbugs and put one in series with my Schiit Wyrd and the other in series with my RPi certified Pluggable USB HUB. That seemed to help the popping some, but it didn't get rid of it completely. Also, I bought a Schiit Wyrd "USB Decrapifier". What was strange though, was that if I streamed via DLNA from JRiver Media Center 21 to a DLNA rendering device, like my bluray player, from my pi, and I switched the input on my Schiit Modi 2 uber to the digital coax output of my bluray player, I'd hear no distortion at all.Īnyways, I bought a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B a few months ago, and I'm still having the same problem. I tried RaspFi, Kodi media center, OpenELEC and others but the USB audio problems persisted. I then bought an RPi 2 Model B but the problems persisted. I tried just about everything including installing a real time kernel, but nothing seemed to help. Then, some time ago, when the RPi was still using the Linux ARM 3.x.x kernels, I updated either my kernel or firmware or both and then I got continuous audio hissing, popping, clicking and distortion. The Pi was connected via a USB cable to a Schiit Modi 2 Uber and that was connected to a Schiit Magni 2 Uber which was then connected to a Behringer XENYX 502 mixer and then, finally, the main out of the mixer was connected to my two M-Audio BX8 full-range studio monitor speakers.įor months, things were going good, and I listened to music being played from my pi without any problems, even when I was streaming music from a Windows CIFS share via JRiver Media Center. I was primarily using the Pi as a media server, as, I was running JRiver Media Center 20 on the Pi. I eventually upgraded the SD card to a 16GB Sandisk class 10 card and I moved the root filesystem off onto a Patriot memory USB flash drive. I've been running JRiver Media Center on Raspberry Pis since December 2014, when I got a Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+ for Christmas.
