Hi Angry Goat, I am very aware that developers should earn money on selling their apps to customers. But after the demise of WebOS and HP's deathsentence of this OS. I think you should consider making Squeeze Control a free app. I have been away from Palm Pre for some months, and is now back from the iPhone 4 with iPeng. I love iPeng. And I surely would also love Squeeze Control. But because I live in a country where the Palm Pre is not sold. I am unable to buy and DL your fine app. Would you please consider giving it free, so that the rest of us still using the Palm Pre, but being unable to DL it from App-store, can get access to it. From our numbers you will never be rich anyway. We are a dying race... I live in Denmark and imported my phone from Germany. Please! Best regards - and thank you for your efforts.

[slim] Artist appear in front of songtitle - so I have to wait for controller to scroll
I have a SB Duet and encounter a problem. When I drill down into an album, in the songtitle I always first see the artist. This is trivial and cumbersome as I have to sit and wait for the artist to scrooll past until I can tell the songtitle. How can I get rid of artist in album view... ? Please anyone got any idea...? Same behavior is noted in the webinterface. This has not always been like this so it probably has nothing to do with TAGs. I have checked that the artist=tag is not "artist - songtitle". -- excalibur excalibur's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33971 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82011 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] MusicIP Rocks!
Hi, It seems you guys are the most knowledgeable on MusicIP after the demise of the old dedicated forum. So I have a question to you lot. Over the last 10 days I have analyzed close to 7000 songs with GenpuID to the default.m3lib DB. I have since then moved some songs around, and do now see that MusicIP web GUI actually thinks that these moved songs are new. As they have been added to the 'Songs to Validate'. So in short, can I just leave the DB with my former folder-structure and rest assured that MusicIP/GenpuID will locate the new path for my songs and correct them in the DB? After all they have been analyzed and stored in DB (which is what takes a really long time.

I would think that a normal user should only be allowed to add single songs (without clearing the playing playlist). And with a power-user password or user-customisable button-presses, should open up to allow adding more than one song at a time (Dynamic-Playlists, MusicIP, Genres, etc.). This to me would seem userfriendly and secure. Interface would be Duet, web and what most people use. I have no idea. (I'm a duet controller fan myself). PS. Erland, I thank you for the great Dyn playlist, trackstat and other of your fabulous plugins.

Re: [slim] MusicIP Rocks!
Hi guys, I seem to have forgotten to actually commend Andrew from Vortexbox. This Fedora distro really is a match made in heaven for the SBS. I 'downgraded' from a QNAP 209 II Pro (500MHz CPU 256MB RAM), with QNAP OS, that needed a special QPKG package to be able to install Squeeze-server at all. Took me a long time to get up and running. After 5 months of early love with my SB, I found out about the greatest plugin of them all - MusicIP. Only to realise that my QNAP 209 architecture did not support it. I then looked carefully into the first NAS I bought, that at the time (I could not get going with either FreeNAS/ClarcConnect or SME-Server). Actually not a NAS but just a thin client PC. (HP 5730, 1GHz CPU, 512 MB RAM). But during my first 5 months of SB'ing, I came across many appraisals about the Vortexbox distro. So I got the HP 5730 up and running replacing the 1GB Flash drive with an old laptop drive, and installed Vortexbox. All went without a hitch. Squeeze-Server is built in and restarted with the system. It even has Ripit installed that will rip your CD's automatically to both FLAC and MP3 to each their folder and eject the CD afterwards. Very sexy - and userfriendly indeed. AFter 1 hour of work I was playing SB on the box... Not so on the QNAP. Which was much more elaborate and finicky to get going. I then muddled around getting MusicIP installed. No success until I found out that Andrew had made a script to install it with one command. Find it in the forum at www.vortexbox.org. It went absolutely like in vaseline. Great. But lately I have had some grieve as to get GenpuID working to tag my FLAC files. But I think that it is there now. This is by far the simplest and most quiet NAS I have ever seen. It chucks quickly some heavier chores like running music-analysis. But I was glad to see that when running GenpuID v. 1.2, each process only takes approx 5% of CPU (hence you can run at least 6 parallel instances, while playing on the server!), where the normal headless GUI snatches 80-100 CPU processing, while doing the analysis. So I am really pleased. Let me just finish by saying that I too have developed a fine taste for my relatively large collection of 16.000 songs. It really is as if you just suddenly aquire lots more music, because you suddenly (or MusicIP) gets aware about the more seldomly listened to tracks and finds mixes where they perfectly match. A very new and rewarding way of listening to music. -- excalibur excalibur's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33971 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48270 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] MusicIP Rocks!
Thanks Aubuti, But I found out it was because I used GenpuID v. 1.4. Apparantly it doesn't work on my system. I tried with v. 1.2, which was quick in doing the analysis. I think its there. The log-file says - check. Everything green.

Re: [slim] MusicIP Rocks!
Running GenpuID on a Vortexbox. There is no problem running it from the web-GUI, but to archive fingerprints in TAGs I'd prefer to run it with GenpuID. But when I do in the /opt/genpuid/log.txt I see that I have a problem from the first automated script run this morning; * [2] Fingerprinting /storage/music/MP3/Suede/Coming Up/10 Saturday Night.mp3 Wed May 12 04:03:24 2010 [0:00] Fingerprint failed (mis-execution): /storage/music/MP3/Suede/Coming Up/10 Saturday Night.mp3 [2] Fingerprinting /storage/music/MP3/Suede/Coming Up/08 Picnic by the Motorway.mp3 Wed May 12 04:03:24 2010 [0:00] Fingerprint failed (mis-execution): /storage/music/MP3/Suede/Coming Up/08 Picnic by the Motorway.mp3 ** Stopping Processing *** This really puzzles me. I know not how to proceed. What Can be wrong with my GenpuID proccesing? I couldn't see the changes in the cache file when I ran GenpuID, so I changed the mmm.ini files in both locations "/opt/genpuid" and "/opt/MusicMagicMixer" >From default "/root/.MusicMagic/default.m3lib" to my customised location "/var/cache/musicip/cache/default.m3lib". So by now I presume that I am building the same DB whether I use Headless GUI API port 10002, or GenpuID from command-line. And when the daily cron runs, it runs my GenpuID and stores fingerprints to TAGs in songs. This should make it easier for me to recreate the DB if I ever have to God forbid. I have now indexed about 2300 songs via the web-GUI. The DB is at about 700KB. Does this seem right? When I run GenpuID I see the above shown result. And then there is 'silence' for a long time, and suddenly songs with pathes start scrolling up my screen. To me this seems a bit odd. As I know that song can not be analyzed that fast. And then GenpuID just exits. Hopefully having done it's work. Is there a reason why this guy runs BOTH GenpuID first AND then Web-GUI on the same files http://wiki.slimdevices.com/in ..ng_Genpuid In the section "Maintaining the MiP database". Thanks for any help you may be able to spare I am at my wits end here Morten E PS.

[slim] Genre does not filter but takes all music by artist
I am trying to make multiple genre tags pr. song. This is now configured in the Server Settings/Behavior in the section 'Separator for multiple items in TAGs'. The seperator character is ';'. After a restart and deleting the index and a complete new rescan of the music I see the following; - Under genres the normal genres appear as well as the genre 'Testmusic' that I have made a dublicate genre next to the original TAG. For instance Kraftwerk is Genre tagged with both 'Electronic' and 'Testmusic'. In the tag it is written like this Electronic;Testmusic (separated by ';'. This seems OK and both genres appear under Genres under 'My Music', as intended. When I enter the Genre 'Testmusic' I see Kraftwerk listed (perfect). But The problem is that entering Kraftwerk I see all their albums, not only the album that I have specifically TAG'ed as 'Testmusic'. This pattern repeats itself with all other artists that have one or more songs tagged as 'Testmusic'. This effectively makes the content of my genre Testmusic way too big and of no use to me. How can I make Squeeze Server filter to avoid artists marked with testmusic, has all their music into the Genre Testmusic, instead of only the songs I tag as testmusic? I only want to see the particular songs marked as testmusic. Not the entire artist's discography Any help is greatly appreciated.
