Softsqueeze 3.9b1 is a beta of a maintenance release for Softsqueeze - please test and provide feedback. As Softsqueeze is no longer actively maintained by SD staff I have fixed some bugs particularly those which affected playing when used with SqueezeCenter 7.3 and higher. If beta proves to be OK - it will be moved to sourceforge.
Main bugs fixed * Non-MP3 streams not being played or require play/pause/play to start. * Two files/streams playing simultaneously at start. * Some Podcasts (e.g. BBC) not playing * Sounds & Effects loop. If beta is OK then I think these bug reports (some are dups) that could marked as closed : 10838, 10758, 8515, 8138, 7725, 7711, 7297 and possibly 3187 No new features have been implemented nor has anything been done explicitly to improve synchronisation. TO INSTALL Download the ZIP file from this URL (http://homepage.eircom.net/~altondsl/slim/SoftSqueeze39b1.zip ) and unzip. You can run the jar file or use the contents of the zip file to replace the contents of your Squeezecenter's directory server/HTML/EN/html/softsqueeze ALTERNATIVE INSTALLATION As an easier way to install - I have also packaged Softsqueeze 3.9b1 as a Plugin so that it can be installed using Extension Downloader. When installed as a plugin it will appear as a new "Community Softsqueeze" menu item under Extras. Otherwise it behaves the same as the standard Softsqueeze menu. Add the following URL to Extension Downloader and then check the box in Extension Downloaded to load "Softsqueeze" http://homepage.eircom.net/~altondsl/repos/softsqrepo.xml Please test the plugin and provide feedback as a plugin method simplifies installation and also enable Softsqueeze updates to be easily distributed separate from SqueezeCentre. Do not run two Softsqueeze simultaneously (possibly only if different versions) - it is not pretty and upsets SC badly. You may need to restart SC afterwards to get stability. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62060 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
