You are welcome Acko... great you have it in the hands
The PSU in the picture is the one?
I am really curious to hear from you about the Edel and most insteresting the Edel with the S03...
Cheers,
Enrico
Yes it is, new PSU ADM7150-based to power the EDEL 3.3V
Still early days but we would like to see the effect of isolation and re-clocking to a lower phase noise clock than that on the EDEL itself.
There's also the option of installing Squeezelite on top of the Botic driver and controlling it with any Squeezebox remote app, but you need a LMS server on your network for this option. It's easy to do and works well though
Yes, I used to use SB but the advantage of the UPnP route for me is that it isn't restricted to just music or SB equipped devices. I can control music playing through my home cinema amp for example. And a single interface is important in our household as my lady isn't into 'gadgets'!

BBB is playing
Dear Ray,
Thanks to your help I can make the BBB playing as rendered with the BubbleUPnP
Without your continuous and patient support I can't do it. THANKS!!!
The S03 work fine at the first power-up.
I have only a small and really annoying issue. Each time that the trace change, even in the same album (so no switch between the clocks), I have some glitches and pops for 2 or 3 seconds. After the first 2/3 seconds the BBB is playing correctly
I don't know if it is due to the S03 or to the BBB.
Any suggestion how to investigate better this issue?
Thanks and Regards,
Enrico

Try looking for buffer before play,
Not sure where exactly, am sure someone will pipe up!
Thanks, still waiting for PCBs!
Laters,
Drew.
Drew, are think you are referring to the buffer pcbs... I am sorry to hear that you are still waiting.
Please be patient few more days. I am receiving PMs day by day from many different places including Australia. They are under deliver right now

Enrico

You're very welcome Enrico; 'you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours' works around here.
I have no pops or clicks with my BBB/SO3 system so it should be possible to eliminate the problem. Maybe start be working through miero's instructions for configuring the botic software to ensure it is optimally configured for your clocks etc.

Again????... Ok I will do it

Is this the MPD buffer?
Some useful information from linuxfan Post 1759->

In /etc/mpd.conf:
# MPD Internal Buffering ######################################################
#
# This setting adjusts the size of internal decoded audio buffering. Changing
# this may have undesired effects. Don't change this if you don't know what you
# are doing.
#
#audio_buffer_size "2048"
#
# This setting controls the percentage of the buffer which is filled before
# beginning to play. Increasing this reduces the chance of audio file skipping,
# at the cost of increased time prior to audio playback.
#
#buffer_before_play "10%"

Thanks stijn001
There you go Enrico, see if buffer size helps
...you can even configure your playback application to pre-cache each entire audio track into RAM before playing it. I have tested this with MPD, it typically adds a 2 or 3 second delay before each track is played.
What affect does does this have on gapless playback?
Ray
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
Enrico,
I did a full load test of your ADM7150 PSU and also with Edel connected/running.
No load Output: 3.30V
Full load Output ~800mA: 3.28V
Heasinks were only slightly warm so looks good to go
Thanks stijn001

Thanks guys for your help... I modified the buffer size to 4096 and the buffer % at 50% and 100% but nothing is changed, maybe a little worse but I can't be sure.
I re-check the setup of the clocks in the uEnv.txt file and it is correctly settled as "3".
Acko, I have the suspect that the switch of the clocks doesn't work properly?
At the first trial this morning I don't setup the above uEnv.txt at "3" but was at "0" and the 192 files doesn't play at all. After I changed at "3" and all the formats are playing correctly. For this reason I assume that the S03 is working properly, but now I start to have some doubt...

Great!
This mean that you test the NMR too?
Great!

Tested NMR without connection to audio equipment. I can see the currents increasing to nearly full load when music is streamed - just for load tests only at this stage as I need to complete and ship this to you by tomorrow. I will do audio tests with my own PSU next time

Thanks Acko, you did a very awesome job

Acko,
I am investigating about the issue of the BBB and I re-checked the clocks switch through CKSEL.
Everything is working properly, CKSEL go 3,3V with the 44,1, the XO1 pin 1 is high while the XO2 is low. Viceversa with 96 the CKSEL go low, the X01 go low and the XO2 go high.
I thinks that if the XOs doesn't work properly the pops and glitches should be for all the song length and not only for the first 3/4 second. If this is correct I can exclude that the problem is from the S03?
Thanks,
Enrico

emyeuoi .... are you using standard MPD from Botic image, or some other player?
Hi miero, thanks for your interest.
Yes, I downloaded the botic image from your page.
In top of the botic I installed the upmpdcli to see the BBB as renderer with the BubbleUPnP.
