Hi there,
I am a longtime LMS and squeezebox person. I have 7 radios of various types.
Last year, I dedicated an old but solid Sony Vaio to be my LMS server and not much else. All was well. Things were working fine. It rarely had a buffering issue and rarely shut down on its own.
Then I bought Alexa. Aha! I will hook up the skill. So I did. I figured out the ngrok business, opened a port and all seemed well again. Alexa saw the LMS, did something things well, not others but no disasters.
Then I decided to get fancy and do the control command to auto start ngrok. Bad. Bad. Bad. I think the instructions were for Unix and I have Windows 7 Pro.
That obviously didn't work but it also threw a wrench in something with some weird file that went somewhere and now my LMS shuts down on its own constantly.
I am having a lot more buffering issues but not sure if that is a bandwidth issue or ? None of the other devices in the house are lagging.
Can anyone help me start to sort this out and get back to reliable. I love my music system and now it hardly works.
I attached the zip log file.
Thanks,
LovelyBrook
