It's the latter... I am talking about a "Songs" under My Library in
Spotify. This is the place where are your "favorites" songs end up when
pressing heart icon while listening the song. I can see albums,
playlists, but not "songs".


Ah, this actually has something to do with Spotify, after all :-). IIRC 
I decided against this menu, as it would hardly be useful for most 
users: as all tracks from all albums you ever added to your collection 
would be in that list, it would quickly outgrow what you would be 
willing to browse in a single list. Not to mention that it would take 
forever to download that list (I can only grab 50 tracks in one request).

It's the latter... I am talking about a "Songs" under My Library in

Is there any way of getting that implemented? As saving songs (hears
icon) is the most common way of getting song as favorites, would be
great to get that functionality in in the app.

Depends on what you're asking. If you're talking about songs you
"downloaded", as in enabled for offline use, on your smartphone: no, as
they're not accessible to your LMS infrastructure. All songs, albums,

This i cannot do with wifes phone (android) with wifi turned off. As i
expect not to be possible.
I thought the Spotify client was using wifi/bluetooth to connect.
We have a family account and have two separate accounts registered with
spotty.


Spotty does connect to the Spotify servers - which would see your 
players, too. But if your wife is using a different account (family 
member), then she would only see "her" players outside your home, not 
those connected to your account. Those are only visible in your LAN.

In the iOS app, I believe the tracks are shown dimmed and cannot be
played back.


LMS in my experience doesn't like tracks which eventually wouldn't play. 
But I put it on my list of things to look into. I might just skip them.



skipped). It would also be nice if cover images of albums containing a
lot of explicit content could also be replaced with a generic image. I


Now that could become a bit more difficult. Because there's not always a 
good relation between textual content and cover art, is there? Eg. Pink 
Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" cover might be really disturbing to some. 
And then some very explicit albums aren't any sexier than ads you'd see 
on TV or hanging from walls...



remember when my 5-year old son searched for something completely
innocent in the former Spotify app when suddenly the not very
child-friendly cover image of the Rammstein album Sehnsucht appears in
his face (Thank you Rammstein!). Would of course be nice if such
situations could be prevented!! ;|


In that case that filter might have worked. Alas: the explicit flag is a 
track property you wouldn't get with the album list. I'd have to 
download all track information in order to take the decision what 
artwork to show. Which simply is not practical.

In the iOS app, I believe the tracks are shown dimmed and cannot be
played back. Interestingly though, the parental control setting is
changed from within the app, so not very hard for the kids to find out
how to disable it. Probably with a proper Spotify family account there
is a better solution, I dont know?

Anyhow, it would be nice to have a similar feature in Spotty. The
parental control could preferably be enabled/disabled in the LMS web UI,
and then tracks would be listed but play back disabled (automatically
skipped). It would also be nice if cover images of albums containing a
lot of explicit content could also be replaced with a generic image. I
remember when my 5-year old son searched for something completely
innocent in the former Spotify app when suddenly the not very

2018-11-03 Thread Michael Herger

Question: Does Spotty allow to disabling/hiding music marked
"Explicit"?


No, it hasn't.

I was wondering how you'd expect this to work: from what I can tell that 
information is available for every track Spotify returns in a query. But 
I cannot tell Spotify not to return them. This could lead to the 
situation where I request 50 tracks, but end up with none, because all 
are explicit. Eg. I would offer playlists for playback which then 
wouldn't play. Is this a situation you could live with? How does 
Spotify's application handle this?

I sent you the shasum in another message, that gave me the clue that it
could be a network problem. I changed the location of the Daphile PC to
directly attach it to my router and the plugin was installed
correctly...

I am sorry for making you loose time, thank you for your software...

Best regards
Carlos.

I installed the last beta version with ssh access and I cd to the
plugins cache directory and there is nothing there
(/var/daphile/mediaserver/cache/DownloadedPlugins)


The problem is that the plugin page is expecting a token when it's being 
submitted. That token would change after a while. And according to the 
log snippet you posted that token is expired when you tried to install 
the plugin. Can you use the "Classic" skin in LMS and try again? Would 
other plugins fail the same way?

I retried from another browser with no history in Daphile Settings and
it doesn't work.

I installed the last beta version with ssh access and I cd to the
plugins cache directory and there is nothing there
(/var/daphile/mediaserver/cache/DownloadedPlugins)

The extension is there, available for downloading but I think it isn't

Sorry Michael for the late response...

server.log shows 2 lines:

[18-11-01 21:06:34.3092] main::init (387) Starting Logitech Media Server

I select the plugin in 3rd. party plugins, Apply, restart, then the
plugins shows in Updated plugins available, then I select it and Apply
again and it goes back to 3rd party, it's a loop...

I hope the text in the log gives you a clue. I'm running the beta
version of Daphile, so I have ssh access.

Thanks a lot!

Step 1
Go to https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard
Login with the user name and password of the regular Spotify account

Step 2
Go to “create a client ID”
Fill the form with some text. Check “I don’t know” at the question “What

Step 3
Copy the client ID and put it into the settings at the Spotty Plugin

Nice! I guess you got a bigger file because you didn't strip your build?
The dev build would be about 10x as large as the release build...

You can rename your build to spotty-custom and put somewhere inside your
search path. This way you won't have to replace it every time you update
Spotty.

That's correct. Spotty currently would crash if avahi was running
already. Which in turn would lead to that "Don't announce..." option to
be enabled.

TBH I'm still not 100% sure how these interact. You could try to compile
spotty with the feature selected as described in above pull request
#112. Would be interesting to understand how that behaves.

What kind of player are you using?

You mean the Squeezebox? It's the Receiver one, a small-ish black
plastic brick, connected to a gbit switch via ethernet.


Then I'm very much surprised the "optimize buffer" option has a positive

Pre-buffering" feature. As a result the playback performance improved
remarkably; gaps between tracks disappeared almost completely, and
during approx. 5 hours of play a song has become 'stuck' at the end only
twice.

Oddly enough, now that I took another look at plug-in settings, I
noticed the "Don't announce players" box has its tick back, and I'm 100%
sure I didn't put it there. Huh.

One question remains: When are changes in the sound quality of the
spotify stream supposed to take effect? Immediately after saving or does
something (the LMS) have to be restarted for that?


The bitrate setting? Only on track change.

Hi Michael, 

Great work on Spotty ! Thank you for putting this much effort in it.
I've just installed it, and everything worked nicely during installation
: My squeezebox is properly detected everywhere, even on my laptop's
Spotify application. 
However, when i try to play music, I'm only getting "clicking" sounds,
but no music. On other music sources, my SB works fine. 

Would you happen to know why this is happening ? Am i maybe missing
dependencies, hardware, or anything else ?

Here is my setup : 
- Squeezebox 
- A raspberry pi with LMS installed
- Spotty 2.5.1 plugin (no checkbox checked, appart the one which allows
to see the SB radio on spotify connect)

Thanks !!

I'm pretty certain that's not new in 2.5.x, as this is nothing I touched

Unfortunately yes. If local announcements don't work, then the players
are only visible to the account with which it is logged in. That's one
of the limitations of disabled discovery mode.

why picoreplayer? I wouldn't use the box to play music, just serve it.


pCP is the simplest and quickest way to get not only a player up and

a pure server installation, serving a Transporter.


I know, the name is misleading. I already had suggested to do a

I consider moving LMS, spotty and maybe smb/HDD to a separate RPi.
What is an advisable (minimum) configuration? I have a RPi 1 and a Zero
floating around I could put to use.
Or I get a 3+ right away to spare myself the hassle.


Pi 1 or Zero won't do it. A Pi2 is the minimum imho. And piCorePlayer.

I monitor CPU and memory every minute. Loads are under 0.5 and available
memory around 680MB.
Plain Raspbian Stretch Lite.

I consider moving LMS, spotty and maybe smb/HDD to a separate RPi.
What is an advisable (minimum) configuration? I have a RPi 1 and a Zero
floating around I could put to use. 
Or I get a 3+ right away to spare myself the hassle.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 2.5.x - Spotify Connect for your Squeezebox

2018-10-15 Thread Michael Herger

8:20 music stops, two processes -n & -c, progress bar running in
Spotify, stops at end of song.
progress bar stopped in LMS web gui
press >|, music back


Hmm... I don't see anything about a playback stop, nor restart playback. 
Did you press play in Spotify or LMS?



8:36 unchecked "nicht im lokalen Netzwerk bekannt geben": can't play
music

> other box (Überwache die Verbindung) vanished

Well... the message clearly says don't touch these options unless you 
know what you're doing - or are told to touch them. As explained earlier 
local discovery doesn't work for your because there are conflicting 
services running. That box is checked for a reason.



music has dropouts
checked nicht bekannt geben und Überwache Verbindung


This option is only available if local discovery is disabled, because in 
that case you depend on a reliable connection. Otherwise you don't.



8:40 no player to connect to, spotty-hf -n gone


Please note that -n is part of every call. You'd have to check the full 
command line to be sure what you're looking at. "--single-track" would 
indicate a helper streaming data. "--lms" would be the controlling 
daemon. That's the two most important cases.



8:59 end of song, spotify stopped, pressed >|, music plays again
9:06 music stops, -c & -n still there, spotify still connected and
progressing, LMS progress stopped,
pressed >|, music plays again


Again no sign of a reported failure :-(. I'm a bit at a loss here. 
Something about your system must be non average... maybe server load? 
You mentioned a lot of services running. How is memory usage and CPU 
load? Is this plain Raspbian, or max2play or something?

2018-10-15 Thread Michael Herger

Hi eater,

the log you uploaded shows that you still got the old 
SpotifyProtocolHandler plugin installed. Please get rid of all Spotify 
related plugins other than Spotty.



 $ ls -alR Cache/spotty


I don't see anything in your cache folder which should cause a hiccup.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 2.5.x - Spotify Connect for your Squeezebox

2018-10-15 Thread ElFishi

Thanks for the new version! 
I can now use it for my three synced players, but I still have a few
dropouts when I use Spotify Connect with synced players. You have more
logs in your dropbox. 
This is what happened this morning: 

8:20 music stops, two processes -n & -c, progress bar running in
Spotify, stops at end of song. 
progress bar stopped in LMS web gui
press >|, music back
8:36 unchecked "nicht im lokalen Netzwerk bekannt geben": can't play
music
other box (Überwache die Verbindung) vanished
music has dropouts
checked nicht bekannt geben und Überwache Verbindung
8:40 no player to connect to, spotty-hf -n gone
8:43 players there again, connected
8:57 music stops -c & -n still there, spotify still connected and
progressing, LMS progress stopped
8:59 end of song, spotify stopped, pressed >|, music plays again
9:06 music stops, -c & -n still there, spotify still connected and
progressing, LMS progress stopped, 
pressed >|, music plays again
9:08 music stops, -n has a new PID, same as above, pressed >|, music
plays
9:10 -n has new PID

Thanks again for all the good work!

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 2.5.x - Spotify Connect for your Squeezebox

2018-10-14 Thread Michael Herger

Thanks. It's a Synology DS216+II, which has a Celeron N3060 and a
Linux-based OS. It's pretty capable.


Should definitely be good enough. How much memory? Are you running lots 
of other services on it?



I turned on debug logging, and watching the log, I see that every time
there's a silence, it gives a cache purge message:

Code:

 Plugins::Spotty::Plugin::purgeAudioCacheAfterXTracks (442) Played 4 
song(s) since last audio cache purge.


That's odd, as this usually should be a quick check with nothing to do. 
In particular as long as that number is lower than 5...


Would you know how to ssh in to your box? If so, could you please "ls 
-al" the content of the spotty subfolder inside LMS' cache folder (see 
Settings/Information)?

There's no silence when it actually does the cache cleanup, only when it
does that check in the middle of a song. 

Just sent the log.

Spotty playback on my SB3 keeps going silent for a few seconds, then
resuming for a few minutes, then another moment of silence. There's no
Rebuffering message or anything. Is there a good way to troubleshoot?


Give a little more information about your setup: server hardware, OS, 
CPU. Then check the server.log file for any hint (or better: upload to 
dropit@https://www.dropbox.com/request/T3RctyzGgNg0oFDubq6a

Add http://www.herger.net/slim-plugins/test.xml to the plugins
repository list


Spotty is NOT in that list.

I simply forgot the update the repository file... I'm sorry for the delay.

I had the same situation and that's what worked for me.  The 2.5 update
didn't appear until I input the repository and, once done, the update

Playing Spotify on my laptop on the same network is flawless, and so is
playing MP3s over the SB3.

(This isn't a brand new problem with 2.5.0, just to be clear: it's been
going on for a while.)
