Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Music2touch 1.4.3 for the Blackberry Playbook released

2011-08-30 Thread monideth

Hi,

Just installed version 1.5.4. Initially I had some problems getting it
to fully connect with my Squeezebox server.

The problem being the default web and CLI ports. My server was using
the default web port, but CLI port was different. The Music2touch app
'connected' OK - but there was not warning that the CLI was not
accessible. I spent ages trying to figure out why the app was not
working then realised the CLI port was incorrect.

Maybe there should be a message to state whether the web AND CLI ports
are not accessible.

Cheers,

Mon

[slim] Spotify Crashes Radio

2011-08-30 Thread christate99

Hi,

Strange problem, when I use the official spotify App, it works fine for
about 3 searches, then when I search again (using the iPhone app), it
totally crashes the radio and causes it to reboot.

I will see if it does the same if I just use the radio controls
tonight, I was just wondering if anyone else had seen this problem?

Once the radio is started again, it works fine.

If I leave it playing one album, again - it's fine.

I also get the not available in your region message when the same
track plays fine on the Spotify PC app or the native Spotify iPhone
app?

Any ideas?

cheers

Chris

Re: [slim] Logitech servers down in the UK again?

2011-08-30 Thread Nick_G

I've come back from work after leaving the Touch unplugged all day,
switched it on and found it very slow at connecting. In fact the second
time I tried to connect via MySB I just got the spinning cursor. Third
time I get 'Bad Gateway' and sure enough, on the Mac when I try to
refresh MySB Favourites I get a '504 Gateway Time-out' error.

There's definitely something up with the Logitech servers I think...

Re: [slim] How to make musicIP work

2011-08-30 Thread paul44birch

OK I seem to have cracked it...BUT... I now seem to have lost a lot of
my music.  Many albums have gone!

The bit I had got wrong was not removing the path entry for Music
Folder within SC basic settings so that SC can will get its info from
the MiP database.

Within MusicIP settings I have selected Use MusicIP (import all song
data from MusicIP (slower)).  Is this correct?

Any suggestions as to what is now going wrong?

 It's like a constant battle of wills between myself and this damn
 Squeezebox.

Given the intermittent problems, I still think you have a network
issue. Have you tried to give the TOUCH a static (fixed) IP address
(not a reserved DHCP address).  

1. Temporarily turn off your DHCP server in router. (may need to then
reboot router)
2. unplug then replug TOUCH. It will try to find an IP address then
fail.
3. Then Touch should offer up on its menu the option to manually enter
IP address. Use something like the following:

IP Address:  192.168.1.25   (I use the 25 as it is below the range of
.100 where the DHCP server starts assigning addresses)
GATEWAY 255.255.255.0
DNS:  192.168.1.1  (this is my router's address).

Once done, your TOUCH will have a fixed IP address. May not help, but
can't hurt. All my SB players (and my controllers) are fixed IP
addresses. Actually, everything in my house that doesn't move I've set
up with fixed. So only laptops and iphones/ipads are DHCP IP addresses.

I'm not on a mac, so not sure, but I'm thinking the SbS status page is
showing the IP address of the computer running SbS (your MAC). This is
different from the IP address of the SB Touch itself.

most routers I know of have an address of something like 192.168.1.1 or
192.168.0.1.   Then most are set to assign DHCP addresses of something
like 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.254.  So to set a fixed IP address it
should be outside the DHCP range.  Above .1 (which is the router) and
below .100 or above .254.

What sort of router do you have. Do you know how to access it from your
web browser? Could be something like this address in your webbrowers:

http://192.168.1.1/

It's the definition of intermittent. From a computer on ethernet I can

clients). And as you could see in the thread on the official forum,
Logitech isn't likely to open a support ticket on this issue.

Oh BTW, it's my estimation that messing about with fixed IP addresses
has caused more problems for SB users in total than it has solved.
Unless you know very well why you absolutely need fixed IP, stay with
dynamic.
I may be wrong, but either way, it won't help one bit with MSB in
europe when it's having a bad month or three.

agree that I'm ignorant of dealing with non-US mysb.com servers and

are more stable given that Logitech is a Swiss company!

 PS so far for the last hour or so the Touch is behaving itself.

Agree Nick (and just posted that sentiment in the squeebox Radio Down
again thread.  And yes, use of SbS 24/7 solves LOTS of problems I
think.  One thing to consider re: favorites. On the bottom of the
favorites list on mysb.com, you can save the list to an opml file. 
I've done that in the past, and then imported that into SbS.  Bingo,
all my favorites now in SbS as well.

Even better, I've set up my favorites using folders and subfolders
within SbS, then saved the opml file from there. Then I've hosted
this favorites.opml file on a bit of free webspace I have with my
internet provider.  I create a FAVORITE on mysb.com with the URL of the
hosted file, name it Gary's SbS Favorites, then it shows up as a
favorite on mysb.com and when I select it, I have all the favorites,
including folder structure.  I don't really use mysb.com much, if any,
but if I do (and when I did), all my organized favorites from SbS were
there.

p.s. I had no clue I had any webspace for hosting from my internet
provider until I started poking about.

Given this seems a Europe issue - would this work  do a factory
reset (painful, I know) then in the setup choose the US servers.  I
guess because we are in EU we just choose Europe.

Anybody tried that - what happens?

[slim] still have MusicIP confusion

2011-08-30 Thread dbinder101

I have had MIP running with SBS for a while now and thought I had
everything set up correctly. But then I read that in the Basic Settings
tab in the SBS page, for the Music Folder entry, this should be blank
and it will automatically pick up MusicIP and the scans will run
quicker. So that is what I did: I blanked out the box and did a full
rescan. I left the MusicIP setting for Use MusicIP to be Only read
mixable status from MusicIP (faster). When I ran the scan, the MusicIP
Import line said it scanned all 7651 tracks (this is correct and I
verified it with the MusicIP GUI and headless window). However after
the scan successfully completed and I go into the SB Web GUI, I see
that most of the tracks are missing. When I go back into the
Information tab it says that only 1238 tracks are in the database. The
only way it seems to pick up all the MusicIP tracks is if I
specifically enter the path of where the files are located in the
Music Folder setting. Does this sound right to anyone? The scan logs
doesn't show anything out of the ordinary. 

I am running SBS version 7.6.1 - r33110, under Windows 7. Thanks in
advance for any direction or hints.

hate to say it, but a vortexbox appliance (or equivalent headless unit
stuck in a back closet somewhere) is a very nice investment. On 24/7.
About $20 electric cost to run per year 24/7, and very stable unit for
running SbS (and serving up video, being a network storage unit, etc.).
And vortexbox ISO can be installed on just about any old PC, doesn't

Re: [slim] How to make musicIP work

2011-08-30 Thread paul44birch

Thanks, but can you explain why?

The following are the instructions from the Integrating MusicIP with
Sqeezecentre(http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Integrating_MusicIP_with_SqueezeCenter)

configure SC to use MiP and remove any references in SC's setup to the
library path - SC will take its cue from MiP's database and it will
traverse the paths to your audio files as referenced in the MiP DB and
find your artwork etc. SC will still take Artist, album and Track data
from the audio files themselves. This approach also potentially
eliminates SC doing a triple scan - 1st the MiP database, then the
folders/ files it points to and then the path you've pointed to in SC's
library path. As far as I can ascertain, the last scan would be
redundant and just adds to your scanning time which we all know and
love as it is :) 

MusicIP would not work until I did this.

Undoubtedly, it's however not reasonable to expect those who only use
their systems for listening to online content (web radio, Spotify et
al) to install and maintain SBS. And since SBS relies on MSB to provide
access to some of the online music services you may still experience
outages if MSB goes down, although it does seem to be less frequent.
The long and short of it is, unless you're only listening to your own
library you pretty much have to depend on MSB being available, if it's
flaky then all bets are off regardless of what equipment you're able to
set up yourself.

I realize I directed you to that wiki page, and until now I had
forgotten about that part. That wiki page was essential for me getting
MusicIP set up, but then I deviated from that part of the recipe and
did exactly what Phil suggests. MusicIP is a bit of a black art to me,
so my only explanation for why? is a simple because it works, and
has been for years. It sees all my music, and doesn't generate
duplicates like you're seeing. It may take longer to scan, but so what
-- it's not as if I have to hold my breath during the rescan.

Re: [slim] still have MusicIP confusion

2011-08-30 Thread aubuti

Even though some instructions say to leave the music library folder
location blank when using MusicIP, that never worked for me. I now set
mine to check for mixable status only, and I enter the path to my
library in the SBS Settings. It works that way and finds all my tracks,
so I don't question it much. Maybe the scanning is slower (or maybe it
isnt?), but I'll take a slower scan that gets everything instead of a
faster scan that only gets a subset any day. 

Why is like this? I haven't clue. Some people seem to have it working
without entering the music path in the settings, but why argue with
your past success? Go back to the way you had it and enjoy.

I don't disagree with you. My comment was to the other poster who seems

 OK, just to be clear,  Are you suggesting that I go back into SBS

 files?
 
 Will I need to do anything within the MIP headless interface?
You should reinstate the library path _and_ set MIP/SBS to only import
mixable status. I don't have SBS in front of me right now so I can't
tell you exactly where that setting is, or even if it's on the MusicIP
headless interface or the SBS interface.

Never understood what was wrong with the old coal fire and a toasting

Re: [slim] still have MusicIP confusion

2011-08-30 Thread Phil Leigh

aubuti;654217 Wrote: 
 even though some instructions say to leave the music library folder
 location blank when using musicip, that never worked for me. I now set
 mine to check for mixable status only, and i enter the path to my
 library in the sbs settings. It works that way and finds all my tracks,
 so i don't question it much. Maybe the scanning is slower (or maybe it
 isnt?), but i'll take a slower scan that gets everything instead of a
 faster scan that only gets a subset any day. 
 
 Why is like this? I haven't clue. Some people seem to have it working
 without entering the music path in the settings, but why argue with
 your past success? Go back to the way you had it and enjoy.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Squeezeslave: 1.0 released

2011-08-30 Thread s7mx1

@ralphy

Based on the template makefile makefile.linux26-armel-alsa I have
created a special version of squeezeslave that is optimised for HP
TouchPad with the following enhancement

1) CodeSourcery Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q1-203 as the cross compiler
2) Added -march=armv7-a -mtune=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -ftree-vectorize
-mfloat-abi=softfp to the CFLAGS which is fine tuned for TouchPad (ARM
V7 with neon)
3) Built against alsa lib version 1.0.23 that matches the one used on
touchpad.

The binary can be downloaded from
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=087AHJC3

md5sum: c2757f686be20cfda27b3ea77ec0a134

Let me know if you need the makefile please let me know and I will
upload somewhere.

Re: [slim] How to make musicIP work

2011-08-30 Thread paul44birch

Do you mean a full rescan from the settings - basic settings - Rescan
music library (and then choose Look for new and changed music, or Clear
library and rescan everything), as their is no option to do a rescan
from settings - plugins - musk ip page in the web ui?

If so is the clear library and rescan everything the best option?

Yes.
A 'find changed' scan will do a MusicIP 'mixable status' scan only on
those files that have changed. When first starting out, this is not
what you want.

Re: [slim] still have MusicIP confusion

2011-08-30 Thread chinablues

+3.  Also, in MIP settings I have changed to 'Import All Song data from
MusicIP (slower)'.  It may be slower, but not by very much.  Some time
ago this 'worked for me' when there seemed to be other issues with MIP
scans...so I've left it there.
