I do have a number of duplicate song tags, but they do not correspond to
the songs that I have so many rows of in trackstat.  Will the
backup/disable musicbrainz/wipe/rescan/restore still help in that case?

Also if I disable musicbrainz tags will I lose trackstat and rating
information during a full rescan?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: New versions of erlands plugins

2014-03-11 Thread thing-fish

Erland, I am wondering if my data is corrupted, or if I just don't
understand the model. I was fooling around with some queries and noticed
this, which I felt like was anomaly.

Code:


  select 'track_statistics', count(*) from track_statistics
  union
  select 'tracks', count(*) from tracks
  
  'track_statistics'count(*)
  track_statistics  38629   
  tracks22773  



I would have expected those to be one to one.  I ran Delete Unused
Statistic but got the same results.  In fact I ran the following query
but didn't get any rows:


Code:

select * 
  from track_statistics
  where track_statistics.url not in (select url from tracks)



Baffled, I did a little digging.  Here's a sample of one track in
particular from track_statistics:


Code:

url;musicbrainz_id;playCount;added;lastPlayed;rating;urlmd5
  
file:///storage/music/flac/AC%20-%20DC/Back%20in%20Black/02%20-%20Shoot%20to%20Thrill.flac;3931e32f-debc-423a-8e1e-91d058f7dd1f;10;1388541995;1388863178;;6f6f9bb7178fe6e49dd035a9bfbbaf87
  
file:///storage/music/flac/AC%20-%20DC/Back%20in%20Black/02%20-%20Shoot%20to%20Thrill.flac;3931e32f-debc-423a-8e1e-91d058f7dd1f;2;1274784902;1282497730;;6f6f9bb7178fe6e49dd035a9bfbbaf87



It strikes me that all the keys (url, musicbrainz_id and urlmd5) are the
same, yet these seemingly identical tracks were added different times,
have different playcounts and different lastPlayed?  I ran this:


Code:


  select count(*), url, musicbrainz_id, sum(playCount) as playCount, min(added) 
as added, 
  max(lastPlayed) as lastPlayed, max(rating) as rating, urlmd5
  from track_statistics
  group by url, musicbrainz_id, urlmd5
  having count(*)  1
  order by count(*) desc


This returned 389 rows, with a counts as high as 477 (!) and as low as
2.

For my AC/DC example above I saw that they had different playcounts.  I
found a track that had 80 dupes and played it, then I saw that all 80
rows for that URL were updated with a playcount of 1.  Frankly that
makes more sense to me, as a likely outcome of something like UPDATE
TRACK_STATISTICS SET PLAYCOUNT=PLAYCOUNT+1 WHERE URL=someURL...I think
it is more odd that some of the dupes actually have different data.

What do you think?  Is this normal or do I need to do some cleanup?

Thanks for the wonderful plugins, I am a database guy and love being
able to interact with my music via SQL.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Squeezebox Server 7.4 beta versions of erlands plugins

2009-10-06 Thread thing-fish

erland;463759 Wrote: 
 Yes, make sure you've taken a backup of the TrackStat data from inside
 TrackStat settings page in SqueezeCenter 7.3 before you upgrade. I think
 the backup has always worked, but just to be sure you can open the
 backup file in a text editor to verify that it seems to contain data.
 
 After the upgrade you just point the Backup file parameter in
 TrackStat settings to the full path to your backup file and hit the
 Restore from file button. Look in the server.log file, you will get
 one message when it starts the restore and a second message when it has
 finished. The restore runs in background and can take some time, in my
 small 3000 tracks library it took a few minutes.

Thank you for this!  One additional tip to anyone making the plunge: if
you have to rescan your library for 7.4, import your trackstats AFTER
the rescan. 

Like Erland I'm running Ubuntu and completely purged 7.3 before I
upgraded, so I had to rescan my tracks.  When I imported my trackstat
file first it ran really slow and was filling the log with: 


Code:

Plugins::TrackStat::Storage::saveTrack (977) No matching alternative path 
found for file:(my file path)



I restarted the server, let the rescan finish, THEN imported my
trackstat, and it was great.


I have a question on a different plugin though Erland: in 7.4, Database
Query is not letting me create new queries.  That is to say, there is a
list of queries, but no means to make new ones.  I do note that in the
plugin settings dialog for Database Query, there is a value for Data
queries directory but no value for Data queries templates directory. 
What should go there, and is that the problem with not being able to
make new queries?  Not that when I copy 7.3 files (which I backed up)
into the data queries directly, they do show up in the query list, but
there's no way to do it through the web interface.

Thanks again!

Wanted to come here to report the same problem.  Not showing time, only

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Squeezebox Server 7.4 beta versions of erlands plugins

2009-09-30 Thread thing-fish

So I normally upgrade to new versions of the server as soon as they're
released, but a while back I installed SQL Playlist and am having so
much fun with it that it has become essential to my daily listening (I
stream to Softsqueeze or Squeezeplay from home to work, all day).  Using
SQL Playlist I wrote a SQL query that would play me every song in my
collection with no repeats, then using Database Query wrote a query that
let me know I'm 63% of the way through my collection with 6242 songs
left, and that it would take 19.42 days of continuous playing to get
through them.  This is FUN hearing every single song, and seeing the
progress.

And that means, until Erland's plugins are out of beta for 7.4 and
there's rock-solid instructions on how to maintain the track statistics
between versions, there is NO WAY I am upgrading to 7.4.  It has also
caused me to send a donation to Erland just now, because I'm not sure if
I've done so before and I wanted to show my appreciation.

Also: I recently tweaked my SQL playlist (and added a cron job) to
include a five minute NPR news update every two hours and The Onion
Radio News once a day.  I was hoping to spiff those up and release them
back to the community; now I'll wait until I find out if SQL Lite has
equivalent XML handling as mySQL.  I didn't know they were changing
databases :(

Well, that is awesome and thank you for the quick reply!  I assume that
we just use the trackstat export functions from the old version and
then, after 7.4 is configured, import them back in?

Very slick, very cool, and very appreciated!

Logitech (and Martin!), please understand that my family has become so

I don't know if it's always been there and I just didn't notice or if

REALLY NICE.  We had some real bluster late last week in upstate NY and

[SlimDevices: Plugins] MusicMagic integration with Roku Soundbridge

2006-11-13 Thread thing-fish

As a long-time Slimserver/Softsqueeze user I have an opportunity to pick
up a Roku Soundbridge M1000 for cheap.  While everything I've read
indicates that it can utilize the Slimserver library and playlists, I
can't find any docs on how well it works with Slimserver plugins.

My wife and I utilize the Slimserver/MusicMagic integration as the
near-exclusive entry point into our music library.  Does anyone have
experience with Roku and the MusicMagic plugin to know if you can
create MusicMagic mixes with the Roku Remote?  For that matter, using
Softsqueeze I enjoy the weather plugin and especially the RSS plugin. 
Do either of those work?

Thanks for any help you can provide!

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Re: SlimScrobbler for SlimServer 6.5

2006-10-12 Thread thing-fish

I recently upgraded to SS 6.5 and was going to wait until SlimScrobbler
was official before I upgraded it, but decided I couldn't wait.  So I
got the latest version from CVS and installed it correctly, but it
doesn't appear in the SlimServer Plugin Menu (the Last.FM plugin worked
fine).

Here is the log entry:

to this:

PrefsInTable = 1,
GroupHead = string('SETUP_GROUP_PLUGIN_SCROBBLER'),

It still didn't appear in the plugins menu, and this is what appeared

I don't really know Perl so I didn't want to keep poking around putting

here.  I hope it helps and that a fix can be posted soon...I miss my
SlimScrobbler!  All my last.fm buddies think that I'm taking a hiatus
from music!
