If you are talking about random playlists, I think the only way it might be possible to make this work is to make sure each work is tagged as an individual album and play random playlists with Random Mix or Dynamic Playlist plugin and select to play random albums. This will add one album at the time and if I remember correctly it won't shuffle the songs within an album. I think it should be possible to do a "Random Works" playlists with custom WORK tags if you use Custom Scan, SQL Playlist and Dynamic Playlist plugin but it will require that you know some SQL so you can configure the SQL Playlist as there isn't any predefiend templates for this particular scenario. -- erland Erland Isaksson ('My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info)) (Developer of 'many plugins/applets' (http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/User:Erland).

Re: [slim] SqueezeBox control app for Palm webOS devices
>From what I understand about the App Catalog, purchases are linked to your Palm profile. As long as the device is using the same profile that you purchased the app with you can re-download the app without having to pay again. However, a profile can only support one device at a time, so if you replace your phone, make sure you to go to your profile management page on the web and delete to old device before trying to sign in with the new one. For a more definitive answer, you should ask HP/Palm. App developers actually have absolutely no control over the app download and purchase process of the App Catalog. We just submit the app to HP/Palm and they handle the rest. I'm pretty sure that's how it works for the App catalogs/stores of all the major phone platforms.

Re: [slim] SqueezeBox control app for Palm webOS devices
Hello, I have read though this thread and am interested in the Control App. I have a couple general questions about the licensing and App download for WebOS.. Since I have never paid for an app in the App Catalog I have never understood how the licensing works. I have a Palm Pre and the Squeezebox Duet. If I purchase the app and then for whatever reason I get a new/replacement WebOS device do I own a license to download it again for no cost? Is there a way to "save" it to disk for reinstall?

Re: [slim] 7.53 not recreating my.cnf
I notice that MySQL already has innodb_buffer_pool_size=305M This was with the "mixed" (meaning this PC is used for stuff other then MySQL) option - and is just slightly large for me. The 'highmem' option in SBS sets it to just 32M. I suspect we need a 'loads-of-mem' option. Without SbMySql complications, it was trivial getting the cache moved over to ramdrive (I did modify both of those settings in prefs, still not sure what the 'library' one does).

Re: [slim] 7.53 not recreating my.cnf
I wonder if this has anything to do with the changes made that give you a new performance option for database memory use. Maybe manual edits of the template file no longer work, since the server now has two MySQL config file templates, my.tt and my-hightmem.tt. Or maybe you need to edit the other one. Settings > Advanced > Performance > Database Memory Config I recommend installing your own instance of MySQL 5.0. Then you control the MySQL configuration completely and how the service runs. The steps to follow are basically: - Install 'MySQL 5.0' ([url=http://downloads.mysql.com/archives.php?p=mysql-5.0&v=5.0.91). I believe the installer will either automatically configure it as a Windows service, or else give you the option to do so. - Install a MySQL management client (I use 'SQLyog' (http://www.webyog.com/en/downloads.php)). - Using the client, log into the MySQL server as root. - Create an new (empty) database for Squeezebox Server with any name you like. - Create a MySQL user for SbS and give the account a password. - Grant the new user all permissions on the SbS database. - Change your SQL settings in server.prefs to something like the following: Code: dbpassword: myslimserverpwd dbsource: dbi:mysql:hostname=127.0.0.1;port=3306;database=slimserver dbusername: slimserver Make sure the port is set to 3306, which is the standard MySQL port number. Set database to the name of the MySQL database you created, and enter the username and password of the account you created. You can edit my.ini in the MySQL program directory as you like. Just restart the MySQL service to have it recognize the changes. You might have to edit my.ini after step #1 above to remove the IP address binding to be able to access the server from another machine on your network. If there's a bind-address=x.x.x.x line in the file, remove it. -- JJZolx JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85191 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] SqueezeCommander 0.9 for Android
Hi, I'm using the official Spotify app from mysqueezebox.com (I rarely have my local server turned on). The app is great, but sadly I'm having some problems with it whilst playing from Spotify. I often get this error message when I click the Spotify icon, or when I try and open a playlist: "Invalid response from server (unknown error)" (appears to time out after trying to load for a while). I'm also experiencing problems whilst loading playlists. Sometimes they load properly when I scroll down, but often they just get stuck; "Loading..." My phone is an HTC Desire, running build: 2.29.405.5 (Android 2.2). EDIT: I'm running Squeeze Commander 0.9.5.2.

Re: [slim] SBS & iTunes integration on a ReadyNAS
Hi, I'm experiencing similar issues as some people already reported, while I see that others are succesful in making it working. My setup is: iTunes 10.1.1 running on Win7 ReadyNAS DUO running RAIDiator 4.1.7 SqueezeBox server 7.5.3 for sparc-readynas platform running on my ReadyNAS iTUNES plugin v1.0 running on my ReadyNAS My itunes music folder is on my NAS, in /Multimedia/MUSIC/iTunes. The iTunes library has been created from scratch on my NAS with not more than 4 tracks, for rapid test purpose. My SBS ReadyNas config is as below. I have included 2 snapshots, respectively: - Basic settings tab - iTunes settings tab (which BTW includes all iTunes tracks, even those unchecked if any) I'm also joining 2 results snapshots, respectively: - iTunes list scan process, showing that 4 tracks are indeed properly discovered. - Scan result snapshot, indicating that ZERO tracks have been included. I have enabled debug mode for iTunes plugin (in "Advanced" tab from SBS web GUI), and what I see in scanner log file for each song is that there seems to be a path normalization problem: If my iTunes (running on my PC) points to "\\NAS-NIDERAND\Multimedia\MUSIC\iTunes" then I get scan log messages like Slim::Plugin::iTunes::Common::normalize_location (363) Normalized file://localhost//NAS-NIDERAND/Multimedia/MUSIC/iTunes/iTunes%20Media/...mp3 to file:NAS-NIDERAND/Multimedia/MUSIC/iTunes/iTunes%20Media/...mp3 If my iTunes (running on my PC still) points to a connected network drive like "X:\MUSIC\iTunes" (where X is mounted as \\NAS-NIDERAND\Multimedia) then I get scan log messages like Slim::Plugin::iTunes::Common::normalize_location (363) Normalized file://localhost/X:/MUSIC/iTunes/iTunes%20Media/...mp3 to file:///X:/MUSIC/iTunes/iTunes%20Media/...mp3 In both cases, this is followed by a "file not found" result as the normalized file names are still not understandable for the NAS :-( Based on my findings, I'm EXTREMELY interested how the working setups are looking like...

Is it possible to discover the default compilation artist name (i.e. the pref value stored in SBS > Settings > My Music, usually blank meaning "Various Artists"). I'd really like it if there were a Browse Compilations mode, which is effectively a shortcut to Artists > Various Artists, sorted by album name. Or perhaps some way to quickly change sort order would be nice. eg. a toggle button to switch between album name or year order. Even better would be to remember this setting per artist, so Artists > Various Artists could be switched to order by album, but other artists would be sorted by year. ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Announcing SqueezePad - the first dedicated iPad App to controll your SqueezeBoxen !
Yeah - I'm running 7.5.3 already, my signature was not updated. I also did run through a lot of tests against different version of SqueezeBox server the whole last week as the new version of SqueezePad is about to be released. I have to ask my questions again: - are you running MusicIP ? - did you try to change the streams on all your Squeezeboxes (including Softsqueeze) to a local stream ? - what other plugins did you install in the server - what streams do you typically listen to ? That your Classics and SoftSqueeze are running unfortunately doesn't tell us anything. They use a completely different codepath through the Squeezebox-Server and might not be running into this issue at all. I also looked up the server-code now, that raises the error: Code: my $track = Slim::Player::Playlist::song($client, $playlist_cur_index, $refreshTrack); if ($track->remote) { It selects the current track and asks if it is a remote stream. So the error with high probability is connected to the type of stream you are playing. -- bluegaspode Big Screen for great Boxes available now at your AppStore: *'Squeezebox + iPad = SqueezePad ' (www.squeezepad.com)* - -now featuring streaming to iPad!- Want to see a Weather Forecast on your Radio/Touch/Controller ? => why not try my 'Weather Forecast Applet' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73827) Want to use the Headphones with your Controller ? => why not try my 'Headphone Switcher Applet' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67139) Setup: 1x SB-Controller+Receiver (Duet), 1xSB-Boom. 2xSB-Radio Server (7.5.x) running on SheevaPlug (Ubuntu) with attached Western Digital MyBook Essential. bluegaspode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31651 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80553 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Tried trouble shooting this a bit more, I have 2 classic squeezeboxes and one PC with SoftSqueeze. All run fine after I updated to the 7.5.3. version of squeeze server, except the Squeezepad, it has problems connecting to the squeezeserver as toutlined in previous posts. Finally I have downgraded to 7.5.1 (the version I was runnning prior to the upgrade) now evrything runs fine, the classics, the softsqueeze client and also SqueezePad connects instantly and works without problems. My conclusion: compatibility isssues Squeezepad and version 7.5.3. I noticed your signature ("Server (7.5.1) running on SheevaPlug (Ubuntu) with attached Western Digital MyBook Essential"), have you already tested with the 7.5.3 version? -- Fvhemert Fvhemert's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33212 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80553 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
