celliesprojects/esp32_vs1053_stream

A streaming library for esp32 with a vs1053 mp3/aac/ogg/flac decoder. Plays http, https (insecure mode) and chunked streams and parses the metadata. Compiles in the Arduino IDE.

esp32_vs1053_stream's Issues

On https chunked stream, stream->available() returns 31 or less and hangs , but stream unblocks if we read these bytes

On some https streams I observe weird behaviour (most probably related to the media server) :

It starts to play, plays less than second and hangs.

Here in

void ESP32_VS1053_Stream::_handleChunkedStream(WiFiClient *const stream)

call of "stream->available()" returns 31 or less. It's quite strange that it remains the same on subsequent calls until we try to read some bytes from the stream.

So I locally made this change, but not sure whether it is a proper fix or there could be a more elegant way:

            if (stream->available() < BYTES_TO_READ)
                break;

replaced with

            int BYTES_IN_BUFFER = 0;
            if (stream->available() < BYTES_TO_READ)
            {
                log_i("Not enough data in web stream buffer, trying to read byte-by-byte");
                while(stream->available() && BYTES_IN_BUFFER < VS1053_PLAYBUFFER_SIZE)
                {
                    _vs1053Buffer[BYTES_IN_BUFFER++] = stream->read();
                }
            }
            else
            {
                BYTES_IN_BUFFER = stream->readBytes(_vs1053Buffer, BYTES_TO_READ);
            }

Somehow it unblocks/unlocks the stream and after that it runs fine.
I believe there could be more beautiful approach but this rough fix did the trick.

Compiler errors

Hi Cellie,
thank you very much for providing this piece of software! Looking forward to make use of it.
Compiling the simple example, I get these messages:

Could you maybe point me to how to resolve that ?

Thank you very much & kind regards,

Stream name not decoded by one station, reason currently unknow

Library working well, since weeks using still the esp32 board 2.0.2 core.

I have noticed trouble only by one station:

https://mediagw.e-tiger.net/stream/coolfm

Somehow library wont decode the station name, just the title - however wont have special characters: coolfm

'class VS1053' has no member named 'getChipVersion'

I get an error when compiling in Arduino 1.8.19:

     if (_vs1053->getChipVersion() == 4)
                  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I installed latest version of VS1053 (1.1.4) is there an earlier version that should be used? I can see it in the source:
https://github.com/baldram/ESP_VS1053_Library/blob/824f82cff459bba2b3184b29bc21f7547bc6c516/src/VS1053.cpp#L378C23-L378C23

ICY name problem?

Im using more weeks my wifi radio what using your library. We know some station have configuration problem, and impossible to receive the station name.

But there was two station, whats worked well, but now, i dont know why the library or my code unable to decode the icy name.

I have asked the radio server owner about any changes in these weeks, but response was, there is no problem icy name is ok. He sendet me about a picture, what i have attached.

Can you check with your method this problem?

about the port number?

Hello, what i do if i dont dont know the port number :-( ??

thanks.

error: 'StaticRingbuffer_t' does not name a type

I've added my SSID and psk to the file.

When compiling get:

C:\Documents\Arduino\libraries\ESP32_VS1053_Stream-master\src/ESP32_VS1053_Stream.h:75:5: error: 'StaticRingbuffer_t' does not name a type
StaticRingbuffer_t *_buffer_struct;

Please help me resolve this issue so I can use your library in my esp32 internet radio project.

Thank you for your creation and support of this library.

Gord

I am using this library to listen to my favorite radios, from time to time (about 30-60min) the Esp32 reboots and then keeps rebooting for a few minutes immediately after the first sounds from the station comes out, then it functions normally again. Any ideas?

The high-bitrate web radio is not working

If the stream speed is 196 kbit/s or higher, the ESP32 goes into 'sleep' mode after receiving a certain amount of bytes. At my home, the Internet speed is 10 Mbit/s, and the sound gets interrupted. If a higher Internet speed is used, some radio stations start playing normally.
Example code:
WiFi.begin(SSID, PSK);
You need to insert the function:
WiFi.setSleep(false);
For example, try these stations:
http://listen1.myradio24.com:9000/5967
https://stream.realhardstyle.nl/320

How to use an existing buffer

Hi, I have used your app to listen to some radios and works great. Now I have developed a small app that provides a buffer in a loop with some aac audio data in chunks of about 1600 bytes coming from an decoded HLS stream. The buffer has this format: uint8 * data.
I can play the data using Adafruit VS1053 library with this code
if(vs_player.readyForData())
vs_player.playData(data,read);
but the sound is hashed and sometimes some bits are skipped.
I thought that using a circular buffer like esp32 Stream vs1053 might be better but I don't see how to feed the data to the stream.
I see that the main function stream.connectTohost is used to create a stream from a website, how can I instead feed by data buffer to the stream and get it played from vs1053?
Thanks for your help.

Error compiling simple.ino

Compiling the example file simple,ino in Arduino IDE 1.8.19 results in "Error compiling for board ...." In my case the board is Doit Esp32 Devkit V1 but other ESP32 boards give the same error,
The only error I noticed in the error output stream is the following: "...error: 'StaticRingbuffer_t' does not name a type
StaticRingbuffer_t *_buffer_struct;"

What can be the problem?

Unable to play ogg streams, flac ogg playing but no sound

When i try play ogg streams with the library i get false to streamisrunning and codec: unknow and code fail to play ogg streams, no sound.

Tested normal ogg streams:

http://retro.dancewave.online/retrodance.ogg https://icast.connectmedia.hu/4765/mr2.ogg https://www.jazzradio.hu:8000/jazzradio_192.ogg
https://icast.connectmedia.hu/4765/mr2.ogg
http://dancewave.online/dance.ogg

If i try flac ogg (maybe not supported), library detect codec: ogg and streamisrunning true but no sound.

Tested Flac type ogg stream: http://retro.dancewave.online/retrodance.flac.ogg

Im not sure, the problem is with the library or the ogg format not supported.

ESP32 core 2.0.4 most of the stations do not play anymore

Hello, I am a big fan of your library and I am using it for my web radio.

This is just to inform that after the update to ESP32 2.0.4 most of my favourite station do not play anymore. They just play perfect on 2.0.2 (so I stay on 2.0.2 for the moment). I am using a ESP32 Dev Board V1 with plain vanilla settings.

Just one station is still running:

"https://stream.srg-ssr.ch/m/rsp/mp3_128",

where as these stations do not play anymore:

  "http://mp3.ffh.de/radioffh/hqlivestream.mp3", 
  "http://mp3.ffh.de/ffhchannels/hqlounge.mp3", 
  "http://mp3.ffh.de/ffhchannels/hqsummerfeeling.mp3", 
  "http://mp3.ffh.de/ffhchannels/hqvoting.mp3", 
  "http://deluxe.hoerradar.de/deluxe-easy-mp3-hq",
  "http://ais-sa5.cdnstream1.com/b05055_128mp3",
  "http://energyhits.ice.infomaniak.ch/energyhits-high.mp3",
  "http://energymetime.ice.infomaniak.ch/energymetime-high.mp3" 

It would be great if you could keep your lovely library updated to the latest Espressif versions.

I have used expressif esp32 board with vs1053, set these pins:

#define VS1053_CS 5
#define VS1053_DCS 16
#define VS1053_DREQ 4

Is there way to listen to radios using HLS (.ts files)?

Watchdog

Can we have a some kind of watchdog here? i.e. callback function when no data send to VS1053 for some time?

stream stop when call setvolume(), Buffer is zero

Hi CelliesProjects,

your code works very well but when i call the stream.setvolume function the streams stops for 1-2s. So when i call the stream.bufferStatus() there is always zero. I tried it with an ESP32 Revision V1.0 and an ESP32 mini D1 Revision V3.0.

what could be the problem or what else should I try?

Thanks in advance and greetings from Germany

How to use other DAC chip type NS4168?

Hello, thanks for your example codes.
I am using a m5satck ATOM Speaker Kit with a NS4168 chip decoder, could you tell me how to implement the library of this chip so that it works with your example?

https://shop.m5stack.com/products/atom-speaker-kit-ns4168?_pos=1&_sid=968a46ad3&_ss=r

Thanks.
