You have been here a lot longer than I have, I was two years into an apprenticeship with Austin Rover as Toolmaker back in 88. Wow, where has life gone.
I came over by myself back in 2002, bummed around for 10 years between Adelaide, England and Sydney before buying a house in Adelaide.
I live in Perth (Ocean Reef) and have been here since I arrived in '88. I’ve worked all around Aus and Asia, but now an office jockey so no more travelling for work (except the odd site visit). Meet my wife when I got here so just stayed in Perth (she’s originally from Sydney, but moved to Perth when she was about 11).
I’m a lifetime Roon member, and think it’s great for what it does. Off course everyone would want it to have additional features, but the continuing evolution additional features are great, and a big drawcard.
I got a DigiOne, along with a couple of Boss V1.2’s, and a Mini Boss last week hence my questions above. I got the Allo’s as wanted the gear round my house to be able to joined into the one zone, and eventually when Devialet Expert’s become RAAT compliant I can join them all to the one zone (I’ve a 1000Pro in my main room, along with a pair of Mike Lenehan ML5 Ref speakers).
I know this is the wrong place but I’ve asked on Allo’s support page and emailed them directly and had no answer.
I would like an Australian two pin plug for the Allo power supply (and I’m Sure anyone else in Australia would as well). The power supply manufacturer definitely makes one but I can’t find out how to purchase one.
I’m already using an iPower to power the USBridge side, I tried an iPower on the sparky side and it made the sound worse. In all honesty I’d like to try two of the Allo power supplies.
The point is that if Allo are selling to the Australian market then surely they should supply an Australian plug.
@oneofmany
thanks for touching base again and please excuse the delay in reply.
Now China is closed for a week long holiday.
I will send your request and see if they can assist.
Please do check back with me early next week by email.
We will sort this out.
I checked my Allo supplied wall wart and it too doesn’t have an AUST/NZ plug option…odd as China is basically this plug too IIRC. It does have a UK and USA one tho and the round pin often used used in asia/eur too.
Is the static IP function broken?
I’m trying to make the rock bridge dual ethernet work with the Allo GUI
Seems like clicking “save changes” after giving new IP Address, IP Gateway, IP Mask and IP DNS
changes the values back to what it was before.
In other words the IP adress it was given by the router.
After rebooting, the endpoint is no longer visible in the network.
I’m guessing it has assigend the old IP adress but changed it to static.
And thats why it’s not showing in the network.
I was unable to replicate in local testing, changing the static IP is valid after reboot.
Please bear in mind, the ‘IP Address :’ line, will show the current IP address only. After saving changes you must reboot to apply it.
If the device is not available on the network after reboot, please verify the IP address entered is valid.
Ideally, on the system locally, log in and check the following command
I setup my RPi 3 Model B+ with the DietPi Allo Web distribution and proceed with a full update using the internal function (bump to version is 6.19.5). The RPi is connected using WiFi, no LAN. It is connected to my DeqX HDP4 using its USB expansion card (RPi USB output).
ROON is working fine, so is GMRENDER using the MConnect HD application with QOBUZ (poor and limited interface, I am waiting for ROON integration).
But SHAIRPORT is not working. The service is up and running on the RPi, but as soon as I start an audio stream from the same iPad (YouTube, QOBUZ …), the service crashes after 1 or 2 seconds and no sound is coming out of the amps. I have to restart the SHAIRPORT service from the Allo Web interface.
Thanks for taking care of my problem. I will do so this evening French time. What do you mean by Reference Code ?
FYI, I also did a test yesterday using Roon on my PC desktop as I was able to see the Shairport device. Same problem on the RPi side: Shairport daemon crashes. Unfortunately, I was not able to find the log to analyze (just start Google in how to…).
Last, I setup a new install using the standard DietPi distro with only Roon, GMrender and Shairport soft. Same issue…
