[SlimDevices: Plugins] Itunes Update
I've recently had to move computers and I can't get itunes update working on the new one. Basically everything is the same as the old computer in terms of Perl version, file location etc, so it tries to run, but I get this message c:\itunesupdate>itunesupdate.pl "c:\itunesupdate\itunes_hist.txt" usage: TrackStatiTunesUpdate.pl [loop seconds] I've also tried c:\itunesupdate>TrackStatiTunesUpdate.pl "c:\itunesupdate\itunes_hist.txt" usage: TrackStatiTunesUpdate.pl [loop seconds] On the off chance that there is still one user of this plugin - does anyone have any idea how to get this going again?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update
Itunes update has been great for me years, but periodically won't count a song as played. I use an itunes playlist wherein the songs are unplayed, but gradually has built up songs that actually have been played. Logs tell me can't find that song in itunes, but the playlist is from itunes.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update
The first track has accented characters so I'm not really surprised it wasn't found. But the 2nd looks pretty simple - what happens if you type "The Beach Boys Made In U.S.A. Surfin' USA" Into the search box in iTunes itself? That's essentially what the plugin does to find the tracks...

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update
James, Thanks. Your plugin makes squeezebox work for me. When I put in the whole string "The Beach Boys Made In U.S.A. Surfin' USA" into iTunes search, I get nothing. All the other songs from that same album behave the same way, ie do not show as played after playing. Do I need to change the tags on them? As I said above, all the songs are from an iTunes generated playlist and most stuff imported with iTunes(including this one via v4.1).

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update
That does imply some sort of discrepancy between the MP3 tags that SlimServer is reading and the meta-data that iTunes is using. Do you see anything obviously wrong when you look the Get Info screens in iTunes? Maybe different types of apostrophe?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update
I actually had a problem track myself at the weekend so maybe this might be relevant; I had a track with no album set in iTunes, but the mp3 itself contained ID3v1.1 tags which had an album name. The album was then showing up in SlimServer and breaking the plugin's search of iTunes. To fix the problem I had to force iTunes to overwrite the v1.1 tags - changing any other version had no effect!

I'm still on iTunes 7.1 or something, so I don't know if it's going to work. Are you getting any interesting errors in the server log file? Anyone else upgraded? If you're on Windows, quite frequently the installation messes up registering the iTunes COM interface with Windows, which stops the plugin from working. Reinstallation usually fixes that.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Itunes update not working?
Hi there - well having eventually got iTunes to work with Slimserver (amazing what a difference turning on the 'use itunes' option makes!!!) I can't get iTunes update to work at all - have installed as instructed and Slimserver sees the plug-in - have left default as 'direct update'.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ? iTunes Update plugin
Hi Starcat, The plugin actually does the updating via iTunes' own interface (using COM on Windows and Applescript on the Mac), so in fact iTunes must be running for it to work!

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ? iTunes Update plugin
James, thanks much! I have a Qnap NAS running linux with SC7 on it. I have iTunes running on a different Mac computer. The iTunes library xml file is located on a share which is imported on the NAS so that SC can import ratings and playlist from the iTunes xml file. Now, I would like to have the otherway roud synchronisation where changes made on SC are propagated to iTunes. Is it possible to extend your plugin so that it calls AppleScript on the remote Mac running iTunes (even connected through simple telnet and not necessary ssh). Would be a very nice feature and I think that this would be interesting to other people as well, especially in times where SC runs more and more on NAS hardware, i.e. not on the same computer like iTunes.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes update not updating
Hi Simon, Most likely it's not working because of your 'multi-disc set' options. I can't remember exactly what the option is called but you need to turn off the one that appends "(Disc 2 of 2)" to the end of the album name. Because the album doesn't have the same name in SlimServer and iTunes they can't be matched. I guess I could actually work around this, but that's the situation at the moment!

Hmmm. Your log indicates that the iTunes search returns the correct tracks, but the plugin isn't matching, because the accented characters aren't the same. Does 'Rós' actually appear like that (4 characters rather than 3) or has the forum changed it?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update "Half Star" contribution
The attached patched (hacked) edition of iTunes Update v.1.7.1 (I've called it v1.7.1a) allows for the setting of half stars via the SB remote. By default the behaviour is the same as the vanilla v1.7.1 plugin where you hold down the buttons 0 though 5 whilst on the "Now Playing" screen to set a rating of 0 to 5 stars. But, if you go into "Server Settings | Plugins" and switch on "Allow Half Stars" (you will need to restart SlimServer afterwards) then the behaviour changes... You now hold down buttons 0 though 9 & ADD (+) to set a rating from 0 to 5 stars in half star increments. So button 1 = half a star, button 2 = one star, button 3 = one and a half stars etc. The ADD button corresponds to five stars (I chose this button relatively arbitrarily). iTunes can currently display the half star values but some other parts of the interface are still catching up - for example you cannot use half stars in iTunes Smart Playlists. Hopefully Apple will change this eventually. To install the patched version you should get the vanilla v1.7.1 plugin working and then simply replace the plugin.pm file in your server\plugins\itunesupdate folder with the attached file. This has been minimally tested. I am not a Perl expert and I have some big questions about what I've done in some parts of the code. I would be glad to see this code merged back into James' plugin f he thinks it is worthy.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update stopped working
The delay is almost certainly caused by the plugin being unable to find iTunes itself - not the track! Have you recently upgraded either iTunes or SlimServer? I've noticed that the SlimServer installer resets the 'run at login' setting back to 'run on startup' which is not what's required for the plugin. Sometimes an upgrade to iTunes doesn't register the correct COM hooks for the plugin either. This is usually fixed by an iTunes re-install.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes update not updating
I'm having the same problem. My configuration is that I'm running SlimServer on a SUSE Linux machine. Because of this, I'm using the method of running the Perl script on the Windows machine periodically to update iTunes. I don't have the output to post, but in the output of the script running on Windows, it shows the cadidates for the songs it found in the iTunes database. The song that was played is listed as one of the canidates, yet it fails to match. Looking at the output, I can't see why it wouldn't match. It then concludes that the song wasn't found and no update is performed. On my SUSE box, the iTunes_Update.txt file is created in a Samba share which I access directly on my Windows machine that has iTunes. Any ideas? I don't know why this won't work. I'm using a version of the plugin that I downloaded last week.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes update not updating
For what it's worth, I figured out my problem. The plugin uses the full path name to do the match. In iTunes, my music appears to be in g:\music\rock\Beatles..., but my Linux machine where SlimServer is running, the directory is /media/music/rock/Beatles... By doing a global search and replace on /media to g:\, the problem goes away. I guess if my share was from the root directory, it wouldn't be an issue, but that's not how I want my mapping to be set up. I'll just have to automate the global search and replace somehow. -- maggior maggior's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32203 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

The original poster's problem is not the same. Simong, you need to change the setting in SlimServer for multi-disc sets. You can see that SlimServer is appending "Disc 2 of 2" to the name and that won't be found in iTunes.

This is because the favourites 'plugin' is no longer a plugin in 6.5 onwards and steals the key mappings before iTunesUpdate can take them. Not really sure what to do about this - I think the only answer will be a custom remote map which is very messy in my experience.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update and Last.FM (Slimscrobbler/Jscrob2)
I have three primary ways of listening to music... 1. Directly in iTunes - Last.FM submissions taken care of by jscrob2 in iTunes (live submission) 2. On an iPod - Last.FM submissions also taken care of by jscrob2 in iTunes (cached submission) 3. On a SlimServer - Last.FM submissions taken care of by audioscrobbler (live submission). The problem I have is that I also run the iTunes Update plugin on SlimServer which updates play counts and ratings back into iTunes. This action causes jscrob2 to consider the SlimServer updates as additional plays to be reported to Last.FM (just like an iPod) - so Last.FM either flags submissions as SPAM (bad) or double counts (worse). I'd like to modify the iTunes Update script to switch jscrob2 off in iTunes before it loads it's updates and then switch it back on afterwards. This seems to be possible via the iTunes SDK by switching to the default visualiser before and back afterwards. This would allow me to maintain live updates from SlimScrobbler whilst allowing cached updates from my iPod. I've got as far as this in iTunesUpdateWin.pl: Code: $DefaultVisualizer = $iTunesHandle->Visuals->ItemByName("iTunes Visualizer"); $CurrentVisualizer = $iTunesHandle->CurrentVisual; my $status = $iTunesHandle->{CurrentVisual} = $iTunesHandle->Visuals->ItemByName("iTunes Visualizer"); But this gives the error: Code: Win32::OLE(0.1703) error 0x80020003: "Member not found" in PROPERTYPUTREF "CurrentVisual" I know it's my Perl that's at fault and was hoping somebody could point me in the right direction as to how I can set the CurrentVisual property using the iTunes SDK in Perl. If I get it working I'll post modified code for others to use.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update on SB Controller/SqueezePlay
Should James' iTunes Update plugin work on the SqueezeBox Controller? I'd like to be able to set track ratings with my new toy! Looking at the plugin code there are some references to Jive and some commented out menu code so maybe somethng was started? When I try and use it via the controller or SqueezePlay I get an empty "iTunes Update" menu under the "Extras" item while playing. My ideal UI would be a facility to view and change the current rating via the now playing track info (like the LastFM and Pandora integration). -- barcar barcar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1760 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73537 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
[SlimDevices: Plugins] Itunes update ignore filetype not working

[SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update/PartyShuffle Plugins for SC7.0
I've just posted new versions of my iTunes Update & Party Shuffle plugins for SqueezeCenter 7.0 at my home page http://www.jamescraig.co.uk/SlimServer iTunes Update is a plugin for keeping your iTunes library up-to-date with SC listening. It synchronizes play & skipped counts and dates and ratings between the two. Tracks can be rated from players & the web interface and playlists can be saved from SC to iTunes. All SlimServer platforms are supported in various ways. On Windows, it also populates the SC library with iTunes art as tracks are played. iTunes PartyShuffle is a plugin (for Windows only - Mac testers needed!) that creates SC playlists in real-time from iTunes - no need to scan the iTunes library beforehand! It also scans new tracks into SC's library as they appear in the playlist. If you have Erland's Dynamic Playlist plugin installed, it can be accessed through that plugins menus - I recommend using the two together. Consider these as beta versions. They seem to work OK to me, but I expect there are still some bugs in there!

I did check this and the SqueezeScrobbler strings.txt file appears to be in UNIX mode already. The iTunesUpdate file I created myself on Windows so I can see how it could go wrong.

Well, your strings file is in the right place so I guess I better check the file I uploaded. James NOTICE: If received in error, please destroy and notify sender.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update/PartyShuffle Plugins forSC7.0
Some features will work, but not in the 'direct update' mode. You'll need to run a script periodically to apply the saved updates to iTunes.

What does the iTunesUpdate web interface page say when a track is playing? I don't know how you verify applescript::glue is working, I assume there would be some errors in the log.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update multi-disc issue?
iTunes Update doesn't work on multi-disc albums if you have the option set in SqueezeCentre ( I forget the name) which is adds "(Disc 1 of 2)" to the album name. The album's not called that in iTunes so it can't be found. James NOTICE: If received in error, please destroy and notify sender. Sender does not intend to waive confidentiality or privilege.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update/PartyShuffle Plugins forSC7.0
It's working fine on 7.0.1 for me. Missing text is usually a problem with the installation. Do you have the strings.txt file at the top-level of the iTunesUpdate directory?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update/PartyShuffle Plugins forSC7.0
Yes, "iTunesUpdate" should be the top-level folder, that's probably the problem. You don't need to install anything else on Windows.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update/PartyShuffle Plugins forSC7.0
I recall when you have the plugin installed in the wrong place, then correct it, that the cache files need to be removed while SqueezeCentre is stopped in order for it to work. In particular the plugin-data.yaml (or plugin-cache.yaml?) file has some out-of-date information in it that needs to be cleared. James NOTICE: If received in error, please destroy and notify sender.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update/PartyShuffle Plugins forSC7.0
Yes, unfortunately (but unsurprisingly) iTunes needs to be running to get the full functionality of the plugin. If you close it, the plugin will start it again. There should be an iTunesUpdate menu in the Extras menu of the Controller? The cache I referred to is SqueezeCentre's own file cache, not the web browser's. It's either in your 'Documents' folder somewhere, or in the SqueezeCentre installation itself. James NOTICE: If received in error, please destroy and notify sender.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iTunes Update/PartyShuffle Plugins forSC7.0
It's the 'direct update' option that determines if iTunes is started. Without this on, the artwork, playlist saving, and song info features will not work. Is the text in the options screen there now? If so, the Controller menu should appear, but I am not sure when or how frequently that is updated. James NOTICE: If received in error, please destroy and notify sender.

Hi Alan, This has been reported a couple of times. There seems to be some inconsistency in iTunes when storing accented characters on OSX. As I don't have a Mac it isn't for me to do anything about this. Patches & suggestions welcome... James NOTICE: If received in error, please destroy and notify sender.
