Re: [slim] Playlist "Macro" URL Commands - Maybe Kidsplay?

2010-05-05 Thread peterw

0.3 mostly fixes the UI problems -- the first time SBS asks my protocol
handler for metadata on the URL, my plugin registers info with SBS
that's used in the various UIs.

Along with that, there's a new arg you can put in squeezecli: and
squeezeexec: URLs: "title". If set, that arg will be the title
displayed in the various UIs. For instance,


Code:

squeezecli:secret=123456789012&p0=power&p1=0&title=Turn%20player%20off



would be labeled "Turn player off" in the various UIs. If you don't set
a "title" arg, the UI will show a simplified URL (with the "secret" arg
redacted), e.g. for "squeezecli:secret=123456789012&p0=power&p1=0" you
would see the track title "squeezecli:&p0=power&p1=0".

[slim] Two presses to make presets play?

2010-05-05 Thread coldslabs

Ever since updating to 7.5 it can take two presses to get my presets to
play.

Restart the server service
1. Hold down a # key
- Screen says "press and hold to save"
2. Let go before any save happens
- Nothing plays
3. Hold down the key again
- Screen says "press and hold to save"
4. Let go before any save happens
- The presets starts playing

When I was using 7.4 the presets started playing after step #2. With
7.5 this doesn't happen**. I deleted my presets and re-added them but
the same behavior persists. I read a ton of threads on presets but
didn't see this problem mentioned anywhere. This affects both my SB1
and SB3 using two different remotes. 

**This only occurs when starting to play a preset after I haven't
played anything for a while (e.g. in the morning or getting home from
work) OR right after restarting squeezeboxserver so I don't think the
server is going to sleep and needs some time to wake up. Once I start
playing things the presets work with just one key press as expected.

Am I missing something? Any suggestions?

Ubuntu Server 9.04
SB3
SB1

What does the custom-convert.conf file you are using look like ?
Are you using the Windows version with #PIPE# ?
If you are using the OSX version what are the contents of the

I use a d-link DIR-655 as a wlan access point (when needed). It works

Re: [slim] Router overheating with multiple devices?

2010-05-05 Thread GRC

Well I took the easy route and sprang for a Linksys WAG120N.  Like Ms
Fonda said oh so many years ago - no pain, no gain.  Wired performance
worse - SLIMP3 keeps rebuffering (unless this is yet another 7.5 bug;
note to self - do not install latest upgrades unless they fix a problem
I actually experience).

Wireless performance abysmal. My Boom outide on the terrace used to
have a 40% signal - now down to 2% - yes TWO PERCENT.  That sleek sexy
design with high WAF and internal antennas leaves something to be
desired from a performance perspective IMHO.

So I'm now looking at Buffalo WHR-HP-G54. Wiki doesn't have much to say
but the reviews are fairly favourable and one of its USPs is supposed to
be high power 802.11g.

Otherwise it's something like the Hawking Hi-Gain™ Wireless-G Range
Extender
(HWREG1) but it's more than twice the price of an access point /
router. 

Again -any views?  

Can't believe I'm the only person with these problems and My Good
Friend Search has not really helped.

Any views?

Thanks

Re: [slim] Spotify on Squeezebox now possible?

2010-05-05 Thread mariowing

I've done some aditional searching and found a wrapper for controlling
Spotify, written i vb.net (the language I've been using to earn a
living the last 10 years) and it calls some windows api's to get the
window and send keypresses (just as you suggested). If I take that code
and put it in an application that listens to an port; would you be
willing to write the SB part of the code? Soundstreaming has to be done
through the DSBridge solution, so the SB plugin/applet should somehow
get the stream from the DSBridge solution. It should capture
play/pause/next/prev and send them to my application via tcp/ip.

It will be a limited and windows only solution but I'm perfectly fine
with this for my own use :-) 

It seems fairly easy to implement search functionality through the
official Spotify API, so in a future versions it would be possible to
implement search in SB which gets transferred to "my" app and then
return the result back to SB.

Re: [slim] Announce: New Squeezeslave 0.9 Release available on sourceforge

2010-05-05 Thread rperre

Ralphy thanks a lot,

I'm on the lookout for a "real" 44100kHz usb sound card.

The only thing i'm going to try still is to play it of a windoooze pc
and see if it takes 44.1kHz from that.

I've read a lot lately, also about the dmix, you could just define
multiple dmix's, like dmix1, dmix2 and choose thoose in squeezeslave,
so multiple cards should be possible, but they have to accept 44.1kHz
first.

I also wonder if i should try to update the usb_audio_snd driver, i'll
see if a newer version is there.

Any suggestions on usb sound cards that work?

Richard

Release 0.2 fixes that problem. Note: I have only tested with SBS 7.5
so far. Now my biggest annoyance is that the web UI shows a blank line
for these URLs when viewing a playlist.

So far, it's not done it again. But, I've been out the house a lot
these last few days, so it's not been used much either. I'll see how it

Re: [slim] What do you do with CD inserts?

2010-05-05 Thread W_J

I kept the Cd's with the most interesting inlay cards in a small
bookcase and boxed the rest in the loft. I find that in practice as you
are not opening CD cases every time you play a track you never see the
inlay card and so they rarely get looked at.

I do miss looking at the artwork but not having 400+cds racked up in
the lounge. With more and more music available to buy as FLAC I think
my CD buying days are limited. The pdfs that come with some FLAC albums
aren't quite the same as having a nice vinyl inlay card in your hands
though.
