Hi

having a problem.
Squeezebox looks like not running.
Do not see squeezelite service running.

Reinstalling the Addon does not help so far.

How to verify squeezebox installation on Kodi?

Where should it be installed , which path?
Does it make sense to manually install it with apt-get install squeezelite?

Thanks T

I had the same thing, here’s my solution:

In Settings/System/Audio set ‘Keep audio device alive’ to ‘Off’ and also to be sure set ‘Play GUI sounds’ to ‘Never’.

If the audio device is in use by Kodi’s GUI sounds for one minute at boot Squeezelite will not launch. I think this vital piece of info should be made a sticky here somewhere.


On another note; I would still like input on how to update Squeezelite.

Gr, Nelisknip

thanks ok will check that.

Do you have the service running? squeezelite? 
sudo service squeezelite status

Yes, it runs. After changing those settings, I rebooted my Rpi and it worked. The whole plugin comes to life, you'll see it when you go to the addon immediately.

However I still have problems with playback using Spotty due to this Squeezelite version being outdated.
