Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] SqueezeCommander 0.9 for Android
I just moved from iPhone to Android, from the great iPeng to the equally great SqueezeCommander. I've only noticed one, albeit irritating, issue so far: in the middle of a Trackstat menu, I click on a song, that brings up the AddToEnd/PlayNext/etc menu, I select AddToEnd, everything is OK, but when the Trackstat menu is reloaded the position is not maintained, the list is scrolled to the top. iPeng also had an issue in this area in that it randomly re-sorted songs with the same playcount but at least it kept the position in the same neighbourhood. Can this be fixed in a future version, or is there any workaround?

Re: [slim] iPeng update: Let your Squeezebox get Social
New iPeng updates are now available in the App Store. One thing is that it fixes an annoying crash on startup that some people experienced after upgrading to Squeezebox Server 7.6.0. There was a simple workaround but hey, let's better fix it... To not make it just a boring bugfix, there are also a few updates to the functionality: BROWSER * There is now an (internet) browser under Extras that you can use to browse and play music from web sites on your Squeezebox. I love that I can no read music blogs like Stereogum and listen to the stuff they link right away :) * Each page driven by a browser (including facebook and Wikipedia) now has it's owm URL entry field and pull to refresh feature (iOs 4 and newer only). SHARING * There's now better support for sharing and playing shared links with Rhapsody and Spotify * Facebook posts now have an (editable) default I'm listening to text. LOOKUP * Wikipedia lookup now also works for local library entries while browsing * There's now also a Google Search for Lyrics under the Lookup menu. No, you can't use it for the lyrics screen saver in iPeng for iPad, that would be a bit too much of a stretch. PLAYBACK * There's now an Play All entry on some context menus. There are a few cases where this will play whole menus (e.g. Top 100 tracks in Triode's Spotify plugin) where you could only play single tracks before. Unfortunately, Favorites is not one of them. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote and *New: iPeng for iPad*, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88724 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] The 7.6.0 is fine for me thread
Running Ubuntu 10.04, updated it via the Debian repository, which went fine. Operating system: Debian - EN - utf8 Platform Architecture: x86_64-linux Perl Version: 5.10.1 - x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi Database Version: DBD::SQLite 1.32_02 (sqlite 3.7.5) Gave me a bit of a scare my library was gone after restarting, but noticed it was scanning my library. I figured the database change was the cause, so went to fetch a snack. Did a check to be sure it indexed all my music, scrolled through the interface to see if it had all my artwork, and everything was fine. Scanner seems a lot faster too: Discovering files (12388 of 12388) Complete 00:00:12 Scanning new files (11602 of 11602) Complete 00:06:27 Discovering playlists (1 of 1) Complete 00:00:00 Pre-caching Artwork (628 of 628) Complete 00:00:30 The server has finished scanning your music collection. Total Time: 00:07:09 (Monday, August 1, 2011 / 23.00.10) This was a full rescan, used to take up to 30 minutes in the past. Also noticed the web interface was more responsive and loaded faster. Adding new music and rescanning takes less than a minute for me now, which used to be up to 5 sometimes. My library contains only MP3 with embedded artwork, ripped with EAC and some by Media Player, tagged with MP3Tag (using MusicBrainz as source), volume leveled with mp3gain. Server is running on an Intel Atom board by Zotac, 2 1TB WD Green drives, 4 gig of RAM (If you have more than 1 GB of RAM, be sure to check out the new option in the performance settings, seemed to make things even faster for me). It's serving a Transporter (wired), a Classic (wired) and a Boom (wireless). The Boom has several alarms set which have worked flawlessly. Only issue I had was a problem I caused myself, I have several albums by the same artist, of which I tagged one slightly different John-Doe versus John Doe, which now caused the artist to show up twice (Not even sure if this was the case before). After correcting the tags, the album showed up under the right artist, but it left the old artist in place with no songs under it. Doing a full rescan fixed it. Nice work, though I was happy running under MySQL, I can see where the switch to SQLite can come in handy. And since it improved my scanning time, I'm not complaining :) Very curious about the Logitech Media Server developments though, have been considering putting all my movies on the server too so I can use the physical space they take up for something more useful again. -- furonfour 'Last.FM' (http://www.last.fm/user/wostu) - Chaos is the mother of all creation. furonfour's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17114 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89393 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Stop 'Play All Songs'

The problem can still occur on lower level depending on your library size and menu configuration but removing it from the top level would probably not cause any harm as it's often not working properly anyway. The other option, which also might work, is to limit the number of played tracks to the Maximum Playlist Length setting in SBS Settings/Advanced/Performance, at least as long as the user doesn't raise this to a lot higher value than the defult (500). I tried limiting the playlist length, not being sure if it applies to CB or not. I stopped restarted to make sure it was saved properly. I then ensured at least some items had been read into memory once by selecting the menu item normally (this is sometimes a bit slow the first time after start-up). I then selected 'Play All' for 'Works by Composer' (but it could have been any of the CB items) where there are around 12,000 tracks. It made no difference for me. If you could limit the list to the Maximum Playlist Length that would help, and would protect all menu levels. but please don't go out of your way. I'm sure there are better uses of your time :-) If I have to I can stop restart the server manually - it is, after all, my mistake. -- PasTim PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89378 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Performance of SQLite and large databases
I worry about SQLite. Does anyone have experience with such large databases with SQLite? In the beta forum Ive read somewhere that with very large databases SQLite may run unexpectedly slow and possibly even slower than MySQL? Thank you for your answers. I worried about the move to SQLite too. Not so much scanning time; I had heard initial reports that in general browsing may be slower for large libraries. For my library (~4 tracks - titchy compared to yours!), 7.6.x is only marginally quicker at scanning (about 5 mins), but it's less reliable at the moment. But so far, it feels like 7.6.x is a bit faster for browsing, which I am much more interested in than scan time. It may not be specifically the transition from MySQL to SQLite that has been the deciding factor in performance gains, but rather a combination of other changes in the code. i.e. refactoring code, optimising the number of queries made, better file scanning, less scan phases to tidy up DB after files have been scanned. In my case, I had optimised by own MySQL instance, so it was already faster than the SBS built-in MySQL instance default settings. But it would be interesting to hear how performance scales over DB size - whether effect on performance is linear or exponential as the number of tracks increases. Please post your findings when you give it a try. ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Performance of SQLite and large databases
I'm generating a very large test library right now and will post the results after it's been scanned under both SQLite and MySQL. Maybe sometime tomorrow or Monday. It won't be possible to compare the overall scan times of SQLite/7.6 to MySQL/7.6, since a clear rescan with MySQL in 7.6 hangs during the precaching of artwork. It's possible to have the artwork precached afterward, however, by running a new changed scan. -- JJZolx JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89391 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] SBS 7.6 and Fishbone Interface
Hi - I see that Fishbone is no longer in the list of available interfaces in 7.6 I found a post and have the Fishbone.zip files. I have a couple of questions that I am hoping someone can answer before I install it: 1. Is Fishbone no longer supported at all? Is there a reason? 2. Will installing it on 7.6 cause issues with the functioning of SB Server? I put it on a Windows box and seems OK so far. 3. For Linux Fedora, where would I put the Fishbone files? on windows, i put it in the html folder and that was all i needed to do. I can't figure out where I would put them on Fedora (I have a Vortexbox).

Re: [slim] Performance of SQLite and large databases
Ok, the new library has been generated: 1,000,000 tracks (Why mess around, right?) I'm scanning it now with a 7.6.1 server running SQLite. I'm not certain, but already I may be seeing something. Discovery of the 1M files took just 9:28. Scanning the first 25k tracks took about 10 minutes. Now, at 50k tracks, the time for the scanning new files pass is over 42 minutes. Much slower per track than for my 33k track library, which takes less than 12 minutes total to scan. If it keeps degrading like this as the database grows larger, it's going to take a _very_ long time to scan the whole library. Maybe longer than I have the patience for. It will be interesting to see how well SBS with MySQL handles scanning the same library. I may also have to scale back the test to something like 250k tracks. +---+ |Filename: 2011-08-06_210334.jpg| |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=12215| +---+ -- JJZolx JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89391 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] My story of picking betamax...
The reason Betamax died was it did nothing better than VHS, and had several disadvantages. Sonos may very well have the advantage in certain respects, but the fact is there are differences between the products that can allow both to survive. The last time I checked, Sonos was missing some capabilities that I consider critical to my listening experience. Fortunately, unlike Beta vs VHS, the media is independent from the player, so there doesn't have to be one clear winner. -- GeeJay 2-SB3s, 1-Duet, 1-Touch...and an iPeng convert.

Re: [slim] 7.6.0 not working for me either

The explanation for this behavior came from M Herger and it is something to do with playlists. All the music in my playlists survive the clear and scan and the rest is trashed, then a new and changed will pick up the rest. Yes and I think that's a bug that has been fixed in 7.6.1, so if people are seeing the same thing also in 7.6.1 it's important that we get more information so we can find the cause. -- erland Erland Isaksson ('My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info)) (Developer of 'many plugins/applets' (http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/User:Erland).

Re: [slim] My story of picking betamax...
Last I checked, the system didn't support ratings in the same way your plugins allow for Squeezebox. I use random playlists that allow for higher rated tracks to play more frequently. Some of these dynamic playlists can get pretty narrow in focus: Christmas, the British Invasion years (1963-1970), Early Rock Roll (1954-1962). Sonos may very well offer all that now, but it didn't when I was shopping for a system. -- GeeJay 2-SB3s, 1-Duet, 1-Touch...and an iPeng convert.
