| Post subject: | Changes made from Web UI not saved |
Hi, I'm running Stereo Tool version 10.51 on a Pi. A Cron job starts Pulse Audio, VLC, and Stereo Tool at boot. I have a working stereo encoder playing my stream from the CLI or GUI...Nice! The issue is that changes made remotely via the web interface are not saved unless I close Stereo Tool. Short of using VNC to remote in and do this, how can changes be saved? |

Here is what Google AI Overview says Learn more It seems that changes made in Thimeo Stereo Tool on a Raspberry Pi might not be saved if the program is not closed before a reboot. This is likely due to the program's configuration files not being automatically written to disk before the system shuts down, and this is not something that Thimeo documentation explicitly mentions as a feature. Here's a breakdown of the issue and some potential solutions: Understanding the Problem: Configuration Files: Thimeo Stereo Tool likely uses configuration files to store settings. These files are usually stored on the hard drive or other persistent storage. System Shutdown: When a Raspberry Pi is rebooted, the operating system sends a shutdown signal that tells all processes to clean up. This is why you might see a message on your screen that says "system shutting down". Unclosed Program: If Thimeo Stereo Tool is running when the system shuts down, it might not have had a chance to write the changes it made to its configuration files to disk before the system shuts down. Possible Solution: Manually Save: Make sure that you manually save any configuration changes, if possible, before rebooting. Restart on Unsolvable Crashes: The documentation from Thimeo mentions a feature that restarts the program if it encounters an unrecoverable issue, which could be a workaround for this issue. Additional Notes: The Raspberry Pi OS likely does not have an automatic "save before shutdown" feature for all applications. Thimeo Stereo Tool might not have an explicit save before shutdown mechanism in place, according to Thimeo documentation. If you encounter issues with changes not being saved, try explicitly closing the program before rebooting. In Summary: Changes in Thimeo Stereo Tool on a Raspberry Pi are likely not saved if the program is not closed before a reboot, as the application does not have an automatic "save before shutdown" feature, according to Thimeo documentation. To ensure changes are saved, try manually saving the configuration settings or ensuring the program is closed before rebooting. |

StereoTool should periodically save its modified settings. If it doesn't, then that's a bug. We'll look into it. |
