Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] 7.4 Desktop Squeezeplay builds with Radio/Touch/new Controller UI now available
As part of the 7.4 development, the skinning code was more or less completely overhauled to make it more readily scalable for controller, touch and radio formats. This meant that the skins made specifically for squeezeplay desktop were lost. As you might imagine, the priority is on everything working on the hardware first. More than one developer commented on really wanting to be able to spend more time giving the desktop version a bit more love, but there has not been time. If the new skinning code is as scalable as intended appearance, then a larger/expandable version should be along when time permits. -k On 2009-10-16, at 5:32 PM, urisavor wrote: I seem to recall that an earlier Beta had SP capable of working in full screen mode, with scalable fonts...

Surely the direct read is redundant and merging them into a fully functional sing app might relieve some of the confusion. There may be other reasons to keep them separate. ... Also essentially feasible using checkboxes. A list of Feeds, then check which ones are enabled for browser, and which for ticker. You could then have stock prices, football scores ticking by, but skip them when you want web or SP screen-based browsing and just go to the full stories about the latest football brawl ;) -k ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Changes to ip3k menu in tonight's 7.4 (8/26)
Hi kdf slim-m...@deane-freeman.com, Would require a slightly more awkward UI to set up, esp. via installing as an app on a classic player. How about two apps that use a common support system. If either one is installed, you get a UI to add/delete feeds from the server list. Then each app lists those feeds and you choose which are enabled for that app. Both currently use XMLBrowser at one level or another, so it could be as simple as letting XMLBrowser handle the UI for adding/editing feeds and the UI for it is only exposed once you have something that makes use of it. Info Browser would then only show up on browse menus, while Info Ticker would only show up as a screensaver. There is really little reason to keep the ip3k RSSNews menu item for browsing. -k ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta

It's not a fault with SqueezeCenter or MySQL, but with the virus scanners, etc. False positives could happen to any program. It could happen with SQLite. Not really false positives. The problem is that by default, the scanners would access the temp files used by mysql. Mysql didn't like it when it wanted to erase or add to those files and found that it was locked up by another process. Thus, the transaction would fail. No bad name, just a limitation of using that service for something that seems to need the db on demand, beyond what it can stand to wait for virus scanners to move along. That's true. Most people seem to be saying that SQLite is slower than their MySQL setup, but that the scanning code is faster; the net gain seems to be that the overrall scanning process is a bit slower. I'm using trunk, so I haven't run it myself yet, but I recall reading that the debugging was on by default.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] miss a master volume on the controller to all my clients at once
When I started working on this in iPeng a few weeks ago I tried it. The sync option now fixes the volume to the same LEVEL on all devices, no way to relatively adapt individual volumes. It will take over the level from the sync master. Makes sense in the context of how volume is handled more recently. Used to be more or less linear ramping, and also had both relative and absolute controls. Ramp changed, and more recently the volume became controlled by an absolute value rather than +/- single steps (UI got messy trying to balance all variations with the steps and direct control). And, as peter has pointed out, it's not a direct match any more. -kdf ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Merging Plugins and Extension Downloader tabs ?
The Extension Installer should not even be a plugin... it should be a basic native function of SC that can be enabled/disabled. This is exactly what it is. Just that anything that can be, as a module, enabled or disabled is handled through the plugin API. Native plugins are Slim/Plugin/* modules, while third party are installed in Plugins, or the cache (in the case of installation using ED). I highly doubt it would be perceived as all that much simpler if there were two pages for accessing enable/disable of featuresets. Much of the functions you know are done through the plugin API now simply because it's matured into a API that can simply hook into the various UIs and maintain a feature set in one module. Examples: song scanning, favourites UI, Random Mix, and most of the online music services. -kdf ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta

At least now it comes from official resources. The old third-party posting that promised there is stuff going on just gets claims of bs. Now that it's been very clear that there are paid, full-time resources involved for some time it means there are results at then end of the wait (whatever the reason for the wait).

It was just organisation, based on having very little time to search. Now that there are dedicated resources and a wider audience (arguably filing lamer bug reports) the activity falls more in line with prioritising and based on effort of the now rather large internal group of developers (working full-time and far faster than third-party folks can keep up with). Sadly, while this does mean that voices, complaints etc are more readily heard and acted upon, it also means that the feedback loop is wider and the consideration of a wider audience delays actions.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] What do you do with these updates?
This is probably dumb, but what can you do with these updates and how would you install them? You shouldn't need to install them. They get installed where they need to be when you install Squeezecenter. Under 7.3 firmware updates boom 39.bin or receiver 54.bin. I put the in the same place I put the updates for SBC, but that didn't do anything. They may not, as these are firmware images for the players. receiver_54.bin is for the Receiver part of the Duet, boom_33.bin is for Squeezebox Boom. By default, the receiver will update automatically when you start the server. Boom may or may not depending on a setting in the setup mode shown when powering up. These firmware images are tightly matched with the version of Squeezecenter. It is not intended that you ever run a firmware from one version of SC with another, even if they are just nightly builds. Normally the .bin files are kept in the Firmware folder. This is in contrast with the Controller images, which are a complete packaged OS and can be updated independently of SqueezeCenter. -kdf ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Problems today with controller r3348 SC 23917
What's the answer next time, just ignore the update on the Remote? Avoid using pre-release (7.3) nightly builds is one option. There are stable versions (7.2.1), and unstable versions (7.3). You choose. If you go with the unstable, then you get to play with the newest but you also then need to accept that it is under construction (especially the audio playback which is only targetted to be BETA level for 7.3 release) You can also turn off software updates in server settings, then restart the server. This will cause the server to stop downloading any updates. Also, any idea how to get this update out of my system? as mentioned on many other recent threads, press vol+ while booting will return you to previous firmware. see here as well: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Controller_User_Interface -kdf ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Problems today with controller r3348 SC 23917
tubes59;359642 Wrote: Thanks for your help kdf. I think the answer was to turn off the prompt in SC correct? Will that allow me to stay where I am in 7.3 and stop the prompting to update on my remote or do I just bypass the prompt somehow? Yes, the setting is in the web interface. Click the settings link in the bottom right corner. Then click the Advanced tab along the top. Use the pulldown near the top left to select software updates. Choose the don't check for software updates option and click the Apply button near the bottom left. You may need to then restart the server but it will no longer download controller updates every day. -kdf -- kdf kdf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55036 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] FW jive_7.3_r3330 is broken!!
bklaas;359278 Wrote: Ben: Thanks for that trick! Can you think of a reason why downgrading from a 7.3 to a 7.2 version would render the scroll wheel inoperative? When I boot to the 7.2 version (jive_7.2_r3191) the scroll wheel doesn't work, even after repeated + resets. When I boot to the old 7.3 firmware (don't know the version) via vol+, the scroll wheel is fine. Is this perhaps beta hardware? I seem to recall that there was a point when the u-boot kernel changed. The symptom was that in certain cases, the scrollwheel would cease to function. It happened to me, and a fair time after the change had been made. I contacted Mickey and he got the instructions and the update to me. If you happen to have one of the usb/serial dongles then you can do it at home. Otherwise, probably need to talk to Mickey about getting that sorted another way. -kdf ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] FW jive_7.3_r3330 is broken!!
There is no way to cancel an update once you are told you need one. You can however, stop the update from being requested. Using the web interface, look in server settings-software updates and turn off the automatic software updates option. This will stop SqueezeCenter from downloading the latest Controller update. Overall, once you get yourself a Beta that you are happy with, and you are nervous about the effect of another update, don't download a newer Beta. The problem with avoiding some updates while installing others is that you MAY find that certain things don't work well together. Asking for help here in those cases, you will almost always be told to make sure you have matching updates for everything. -kdf -- kdf kdf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55003 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta

The module simply sets the configuration options within the firmware of the Receiver in order to set how it connects to the network and the preferred server (either SC or SN). To connect to a specific stream, you still need either SC or SN. -kdf ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Uh oh. nightly update did a bad thing..
Richard mentioned that a new update would ready IF the automated tests passed. I'd assume they did not, so you still see 3173 in that location. When the next build is done, and passes, then you will see a new version on that page and any restart of SC should detect it and download for you. -kdf ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] 7.0.1 -- WHERE Can I Find It?
I tried the XML Maxversion hack on all of the plugins that had an Install.XML file. Unfortunately, I think it only worked on one or two. Also, out of the 8-10 plugins I use, only three of them had an Install.XML file. anything compatible with 7.0+ must have an install.xml file in order to load correctly. I'm certain you must be mistaken. I currently run 7.2 and have upwards of 40 plugins installed. Most of these are in working order after editing install.xml. -kdf ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
