OK, here you go. Download the zip file. Unzip the files to your FB2K directory which should be c:\program files\foobar2000. Right click on the file that says "FooSQIP.exe - Shortcut" and select "properties". In the "Target" field you will see an IP address of 127.0.0.1 - change that to the IP address of your vortexbox, make sure that the IP address has quote marks on both sides, e.g. "192.168.0.1".

Re: [slim] Need help pointing towards itunes
Forget about Windows for now. How are you browsing your library with SBS? Under My Music, are you using Albums, Artists, Genres, Years, or Music Folder? "Music Folder" is the only one that cares what your filenames are -- everything else is based on the tags in your files. As for your different bitrate folders, do you have the same tracks at different bitrates? If so, the best solution for SBS is to keep the low bitrate versions completely out of the music library path. For example, I have three main music folders: (1) lossless, (2) lossy MP3 versions of the lossless tracks, and (3) tracks that I only have in MP3. I have my folders and SBS set so that it only sees (1) and (3). But when I make copies for my portable player, I use only (2) and (3). Btw, within Windows the leading zeros are needed because that is the strict sort order for most software. If you have 1, 2, 3, ., 10, 11, 12 then a strict sorting based on the characters is 1, 10, 11, 12, 2, 3, . But if your tags are correct it won't matter (except for Browse Music Folder). -- aubuti aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85989 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Rdioio Broken?
Hi, I'm running Squeezebox Server Version: 7.5.3 - r31792. I have a Radioio premium account that is all good and have been using it through my SB3 for years. I can log into Radioio's web site and access the account without any problems. However, starting today it seems, when I try to play any channel from Radioio, I get an immediate error that says "Error No Items Found In Playlist". Also starting today, when I access the Radioio app either from the web interface or via my SB3, I usually get only my account as an entry, no radio channels. When I repeatedly try, sometimes the entire radio channel list does come back, but then trying to play any channel results in the error. It looks like Radioio is having some troubles, but I was wondering if anybody else is seeing this? Or, maybe I have messed something up and somebody has a good pointer to straighten it out?

I believe Andy is aware of it. It's a change in the comms that seems to cause it.

Maybe iPeng is affected most heavily since it only listens to status updates and doesn't request a menu as a request (I believe that feature was nonexistent when I first built this for iPeng).

Re: [slim] Need help pointing towards itunes
Thanks for the response, Aubuti. The reason that I want to point to iTunes is because of the better organization/tagging. I have lots of music that is ripped with DB Poweramp or downloaded from online web stores that will be ordered correctly in iTunes, but not when sitting in a Windows directory. Also would like the artwork and any other info to populate from one central place into SB. Directory structure where all music is stored is F: Music and then sub directories of Lossless, 24 bit, mp3, etc. Would like to keep this sorting ability to group albums by bitrate even if I use itunes. I guess I could do this with huge playlists so that answers that question. Maybe my main issue is knowing how to get SB to read correct track order out of a windows file? Is there a trick to that? -- fortitude.five fortitude.five's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23323 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85989 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Napster Irritations
Napster has numerous problems with the API for both its web client and for Squeezeboxes. It started last year when Napster updated their API, which as far as I know, is still incomplete. The various album quirks you mention (multiple listings for the same album, no direct way to save an album to your Napster library, etc) are among the more annoying problems. There are various open bugs at bugs.slimdevices.com , as well as threads here. There are some things that Logitech can do, but almost everything really comes down to Napster getting itself sorted out. And to make it even more complicated, the interfaces and issues vary from one country to another. -- aubuti aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86083 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Problem with radio station(s)
FYI - Foggy Mountain does work fine on a Reciva device (using the station from their database). It shows as a 131Kbps AAC stream. Their web-based stream laucher is very simplistic and for some stream URLs it does not result in something playing even though it works on the devices. RadioTime has the same stream URL. -- Paul Webster Paul Webster http://dabdig.blogspot.com Paul Webster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=105 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85528 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Napster Irritations
Both the Plugin and the PC client appear somewhat flaky: Plugin: 1. Whatever I do, I cannot delete albums from My Napster / Albums; deleting them via the PC client doesn't make any difference to what I find here. 2. I have an album in My Napster / Albums for which every track (all 29 of them) shows up in the Albums list. 3. Some albums that the PC client does find cannot be found at all using search from the plugin (however, this may be because they're of the type described in 2. below). PC Client: 1. In My Library, there are 'folders' for 'All Tracks', 'View by Genre', 'View by Artist', but *not* 'View by Album'. This is a pain. Anyone know how to rectify this (if it's possible)? 2. Only after unsuccessfully trying to add found albums several times, to my library (using options), did I find, by clicking on the found album's artwork, that the 'track' was no longer available at the copyright owner's request. I'd spent some time also searching for it via the plugin. -- Furry Living room: SB Touch, Audiolab 8000A (c1985) + TDL RTL3 speakers. Dining room: SB Boom. Kitchen: SB Radio 1/2, with battery.

Re: [slim] the "SQUEEZEBOX RADIO SHOW" (this Saturday night 11pm EST)
No problem then, let me know how I can help. So basically my phone line will be used as an invisible operator, as it were. Callers are actually calling you, but the "third party" on my phone is actually the podcast stream. Correct? I'm almost certain I have 3-way calling, dunno about the "conferencing" aspect. I do travel for biz on occasion so we would have to coordinate schedules. -- toby10 toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85686 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Glad you like it - there's a few rough edges which I will look to updating. If you have contact with them, could you ask them if they have an official icon which they would be happy for us to include in this plugin? I think it will also be possible to implement this as an applet for Radio/Touch to allow playback of these streams when attached to MySqueezebox.com, i.e. no local server.

Re: [slim] Control your SqueezeBox or Transporter with Foobar2000
I suggest changing the IP address at the top of the AutoIt script (you can do this in Windows Notepad). If you install AutoIt you can test the script out by doubleclicking the script, then compile it if it works. Change "127.0.0.1" to whatever the ip address is of your vortexbox.
