Raspberry Pi. Raspbian, Java, Jukebox

[mcyzyk]

FYI, running OpenJDK Java 8 on Raspbian (32-bit Debian Butch for ARM).

Jukebox does not work.

I'm seeing a lot of issues with this, and how the old Oracle Java 8 used to solve it.

Will Jukebox ever work on anything other than Oracle's Java 8 JRE?

Ok, I've installed Java 8, OpenJDK.

Also, I found this tutorial over at AirSonic:

https://airsonic.github.io/docs/jukebox/

I ran that Java program and here is the output:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ java audioDevList
Available mixers:
PulseAudio Mixer
default [default]
Headphones [plughw:0,0]
Audio [plughw:1,0]
Port Headphones [hw:0]
Port Audio [hw:1]

So far, in my JRE sound.properties file, I've tried "hw:1" and "plughw:1.0". (My sound card for this is an external DAC plugged into USB.)

No joy!

Sure would be great if Subsonic Jukebox worked on OpenJDK.

OpenJDK on Pi's and similar have always had issues. The official Oracle release works fine. I haven't tried anything higher than 8.

I have Subsonic running on DietPi on a Pi4.

Running the audioDevList java script, my output shows:

Available mixers:
PulseAudio Mixer
ALSA [default]
ALSA [plughw:0,0]
ALSA [plughw:0,1]
ALSA [plughw:0,2]
Port ALSA [hw:0]


Snippet from my subsonic.sh file:

${JAVA} -Xmx${SUBSONIC_MAX_MEMORY}m \
-Dsubsonic.home=${SUBSONIC_HOME} \
-Dsubsonic.host=${SUBSONIC_HOST} \
-Dsubsonic.port=${SUBSONIC_PORT} \
-Dsubsonic.httpsPort=${SUBSONIC_HTTPS_PORT} \
-Dsubsonic.contextPath=${SUBSONIC_CONTEXT_PATH} \
-Dsubsonic.db="${SUBSONIC_DB}" \
-Dsubsonic.defaultMusicFolder=${SUBSONIC_DEFAULT_MUSIC_FOLDER} \
-Dsubsonic.defaultPodcastFolder=${SUBSONIC_DEFAULT_PODCAST_FOLDER} \
-Dsubsonic.defaultPlaylistFolder=${SUBSONIC_DEFAULT_PLAYLIST_FOLDER} \
-Djava.awt.headless=true \
-verbose:gc \
'-Djavax.sound.sampled.SourceDataLine=#ALSA [plughw:0,0]' \
-jar subsonic-booter-jar-with-dependencies.jar > ${LOG} 2>&1 &


You can see the 2nd last line referencing ALSA [plughw:0,0] and that works for me!

Jukebox mode works for me!
