Hi all,
maybe someone can help me.
I do have frequent freezes of OSMC on RPI 3
I had 2 problems:
-
I have squeezelite installed and this is freezing regularly. I added a cron job for restarting the service but still freezing. the only hint I found while logging was : output_init_alsa:928 memory locked
-
second : not sure if they are related - OSMC is not responding to any action, no mouse or keyboard input, no ping, no network connect, but screen is still on.
sudo journalctl | grep squeeze
shows:
kernel: Out of memory: Kill process 4899 (squeezelite) score 529 or sacrifice child
Only action is to power if down and on via taking power source away and back on.
Attached is a logfile , maybe someone is having a idea?

any settings I can do for memory allocation?
Thanks a lot to the forum and OSMC team…
started squeezelite with:
/usr/bin/squeezelite -n WohnV1osmc95RPI3 -o default -V Speaker -b 400000 -m 00:00:00:00:00:95 -d all=debug -f /var/log/squeezelite.log

It looks like you’re pushing the memory limits of the 1GB Pi 3 trying to run both Kodi and squeezelight together.
Squeezelight is clearly a bit of a memory hog in its current configuration. I’d try running it with a smaller buffer size and, if possible, disable VNC server.
Hi
I did reduce the buffer, actually I did set it to 0, nut -b option any more.
I often happens after a restart of squeezelite service.
squeezelite is running but only strange sound is generated.
after a restart via systemctl OSMC freezes often.
I tried to find hints in the journal, but did not find any.
which RPI Memory settings would you recommend?
I do not overclock the RPI.

The mad_decode errors probably refer to the MPEG audio decoder, used for MP3 decoding. Perhaps squeezelite uses its own version of libmad or it might use the one that comes with Debian, libmad.so.0.2.1. Unfortunately, it seems that waiting for Debian stretch to appear won’t provide a later version.
So you no longer seem to have a memory issue. Perhaps @sam_nazarko has some ideas about the latest errors.
Thanks for the hint, will check again.
