I’ve been using the Android Remote App for months and I’ve never once seen the “Request Error” message. I recently started using the iOS Remote App in a different part of the house and I’m seeing a litany of “Request Error” every time I look at the ‘Artists’ page and select an artist, and every time I look at an particular artists’ page and select an album. In each case, I see “Request Error” pop up a number of times. If I re-do the selection once or twice the selection registers and in the end I get my music playing.
Worth noting: the iPad in question is getting an 80-ish-percent WiFi signal. I don’t have any difficultly in any other app, so perhaps the Remote App is using UDP?
In summary, while this isn’t a complete show stopper it is certainly a PITA. I’d love to fix it so kindly send your ideas!
Hi @Antoine, thank you for the quick reply! Yes, I am running Audirvana Studio on Windows. Below is a screen shot of Remote running on iOS with the error. I get this when selecting an artist or an album. Re-selecting once or twice (sometimes requires more) works.
My OP alluded to 80% WiFi strength … the screenshot below is with the iPad in the same room as the router, so it happens with perfect WiFi.
Same issue here when running AS on Ubuntu with the latest Audirvana Remote on iPad. Almost every second I get multiple ,Request error‘ on the screen of the iPad. Most annoying.
I believe this is a ‘timeout’ issue, rather than an explicit communications failure. I had a performance issue on the machine running Audirvana Studio; when I addressed that, 99% of the “Request Errors” stopped.
I see, thank you for the information, we have to discuss about this topic with our developer to know how we can get more information about those errors.
I just switched from my old MacBook Air running AS on Ubuntu to a more powerful MacBook Pro (though not a powerful as I like with only 8 Gb RAM) and the request errors are still here albeit less frequently.
It would be good if this issue could be solved as it is plain annoying.
I have exactly the same. Last days all worked fine but since today the app is not connected to Qobuz, and when i connect it says ‘request error’
running remote on iphone, audirvana on ubuntu.
Edit: samsung android has same issue. I inspected the logs of audirvana remote, it says pc where audirvana runs has no internet and therefore qobuz cannot connect. But the pc has (hardwired) internet and can browse internet perfectly fine. I already restarted pc , removed and installed remote app but has no effect.
Audirvana disconnected Qobuz last week … no request errors … I signed into Qobuz over the weekend … waves of request errors, more than ever before. As an experiment, I’ve disconnected Qobuz to see if that is the cause and will report back in a few days.
I experience these notifications only when I’m switching back to the remote app after having used another app on my phone (Android).
But the remote app works perfectly fine at that moment.
I solved it on my system. It’s a linux based system (Ubuntu on Mac Mini) and Remote app on Iphone (IOS) and Samsung (Android). I disabled the autostart of Audirvana which was done via the script Audirvana delivers. According to Audirvana log files, there was no internet on the device but obviously the device had internet, it is hardwired on my LAN and other apps (e.g. webbrowser) were able to access internet. Since then, no issues at all. I must say my MacMini is always on and I even don’t have the ‘screen’ to go idle, although it’s headless. I’ll test it for a while before dipping into letting my system sleep as I suspect problem again.
Hi @Sander_Kaa, if I understand your post correctly, the networking error in the Audirvana occurs at startup? If that is the case, I had the same issue: Audirvana starts before networking is up-and-running. Here is a clean fix:
sudo vi /opt/audirvana/studio/share/etc/audirvanaStudio.service
add the following line immediately above the ExecStart line …
ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 15
Im not an experienced linux user, so had to google what you do here. The sudo vi command saves a file (?) to a location, and then you add code to that?
Cant the setasservice.sh file be altered with this 15 seconds wait and then be restarted?
And indeed i do think this a the way to resolve it.
The “sudo vi” command is EDITING the specified file, you find the line with “ExecStart” and just before that you add a new line “ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 15”.
As you suggest, tho, any mechanism that delays the start of Audirvana 15 seconds will do the trick!
Ah i see. You mention the audirvanaStudio.service to edit isnt it? O had the impression the enabling the setasservice.sh file starts audirvana when booting. So whats the relation with audirvanaStudio.service?
