(UPnP Error U0501). > I had some offline discussions with Ap15e and with his kind help we discovered that the problem is because when Whitbear issues a query to Squeezebox Server CLI with "artists 0 300" the latter returns the entry "id%3A3123 artist%3AVarious%20Artists" two times in its response.
In the case of Ap15e he has 262 artist entries in his artist database so Whitebear thinks it must pass on 262 items to the Android UPnP control point. But since Various Artists is a duplicate, the second copy gets eliminated, and so there are finally only 261 items in the list. This explains why Ap15e sees the error when Whitebear trips over the no longer existent index 261 entry... It is a mystery to me why the Squeezebox Server CLI makes a duplicate of Various Artists. Perhaps it is because Ap15e has an actual artist called Various Artists, and he also has compilation albums that Squeezebox Server names as by Various Artists, and therefore perhaps Squeezebox Server is not clever enough to know that these two are in fact the same name ??? => This is clearly a bug in Squeezebox Server. However, now that I know about it, I can modify Whitebear to work around this problem. I am guessing the problem with the "years" folder is due to a similar duplication. (Perhaps this time between the explicit year "0" and the implicit "no year" = 0 ...) -- AndrewFG Regards, AndrewFG Try out Whitebear. The middleware that joins the two worlds of: 1.
