OP25 Cannot start liquidsoap

[maredzki]

What is bad about it stat I cannot stop/start the service, it just hangs, I have to reboot the pi

 

[maredzki]

I'm getting ready to clone my other working pi and changing the configuration a little bit if I cannot figure it out.

Not seen that error before. The mksafe() is supposed to keep the stream alive. I wonder if the machine is going to sleep and this is why you can't stat the service?

It has been running for the last 18 hours since we last messaged, it has the "strange error" logged in the message though.

I was trying to find how to display alpha tags instead of the channel ID but couldn't find anything on RR's website. Can you point me in the right direction?

The "strange error" messages can be ignored. I've seen them occasionally but they don't appear to have any negative impact on the system.

Alpha tags come from the trunk-tags.tsv file which is referenced from your trunk.tsv. The format of the tags file is numeric tgid followed by a <tab> and then the text description optionally followed by another <tab> and a numeric priority. One line per tgid.

 

[maredzki]

In trunk.tsv "TGID Tags File" should list "trunk-tags.tsv" and that file should be located in the same directory as trunk.tsv, correct?

trunk-tags.tsv
123(tab)Description
234(tab)Description

Correct.
