I can try either method if provided with the basics to get it running. I have searched high and low to get inline and inline::python running on my python install but have been unable to find the relevant windows or relevant patch files/instructions.

Re: [slim] Stream google play music
i managed to get the pip install gmusicapi running, I had to run it from cmd prompt and not the python prompt. I know need to determine how to get the plugin in the squeezebox plugins folder so i can set settings Jphccfc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=46163 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99482 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Stream google play music
Thanks Srasher, I no longer get the error message it ran and then left the message restart, I dont know how to test if it is running. I was expecting a gmusicapi.py file that would then need to be run but couldnt find that in the github Unofficial-Google-Music-API folder. For the life of me I cant understand why the squeezebox-googlemusic doesnt show in the plugins page of the server. I have copied the repo.xml file to the plugins folder of the squeezebox directory. Do i need to have the squeezebox-googlemusic folder in that directory too?

Im runnning Windows 64bit I have installed python 2.7.6, I have run an exe to install pip command. If I type $ pip install gmusicapi I get a syntax error pointing to the $. I have downloaded the python file from the following: https://github.com/simon-weber/Unofficial-Google-Music-API/tree/master. PIP still doesnt work (I pasted this into the root of the python27 directory). I have also tried running setup.py using the GUI on python and I get the following error:- Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python27\Unofficial-Google-Music-API-develop\setup.py", line 5, in from setuptools import setup, find_packages ImportError: No module named setuptools I have copied the repo.xml file to my plugins root and even then the plugins page on the squeezebox web server does not seem to see the plugin so I have no ability to setup password or mobile device id!!!

Re: [slim] Stream google play music
I know there are workarounds using upnp for Google music but would still love a dedicated Google music app for my squeezebox, I see there are unofficial apis available. I would be happy to help test if there are any willing developers.
