Hey Hervé, The replacement line you posted should be: from urllib importquote from urllib2 import urlopen as only urllib has quote().Now, I still get an error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/roey/.kde/share/apps/amarok/scripts/SlimserverControl/SlimserverControl.py", line 79, in ? main() File "/home/roey/.kde/share/apps/amarok/scripts/SlimserverControl/SlimserverControl.py", line 74, in main elif "trackChange" in notification or "playing" in notification: play_track(slimserver_ip, slimserver_port, squeezebox_player) File "/home/roey/.kde/share/apps/amarok/scripts/SlimserverControl/SlimserverControl.py", line 49, in play_track result = urlopen(url) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 130, in urlopen return _opener.open(url, data) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 358, in open response = self._open(req, data) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 376, in _open '_open', req) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 337, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 1021, in http_open return self.do_open(httplib.HTTPConnection, req) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 996, in do_open raise URLError(err) urllib2.URLError: - Roey -- hleroy;166241 Wrote: > Hello Roey, > > I have googled the error message you sent.

[slim] Squeezebox + Amarok w/o using SlimServer?
Hello, First off I'd like to say that I find the SqueezeBox a pleasure to use (when it works). I've been using it for a few months now and I've definitely enjoyed the convenience of its remote control. There are a few things that *really* get to me, however, and as much as I've searched around, I could not find a viable solution for them. Essentially, - The SlimServer interface makes listening to music really frustrates me. I (personally) just want to brose my folders and play music from them. With SlimServer, I hit one impediment after another; I've posted about these on separate threads, but essentially: * I'm being unable to browse a directory if I've capitalized its filename * it's slow (I think because it's trying to download the artwork, but even I open a directory containing only directories, it's still slow to return an HTML page). * it's got too many dependencies (mysql, perl, etc apparently SlimServer's way too sensitive to API changes on their parts. * it's ugly no matter which skin I put on it. It's not that the colors and fonts are ugly, it's the whole layout; a decent music player like amarok nails it in my book where user-friendliness is concerned. - The remote control's "seek" function doesn't work like a traditinal one does: I'd rather seek by pressing and holding the seek button, as opposed to pressing it once to start the search and again to end it. - I haven't found a way to _disable_ displaying artwork for albums. If my Internet connection's hosed, then SlimServer will take ages timing out waiting to download the artwork (and I don't know from where it's downloading it, either.. I don't recall finding such a setting through the SlimServer UI) - Sometimes plops and squeaks pop up before a file starts (someone's raised this issue in another thread). For me, it sometimes happens in the middle of file playback, too. So I just wanted to know how, short of coding something myself, I can control the SqueezeBox3 directly through Amarok (with remote control support as well). I really can't stand the SlimServer UI, and I don't know how anyone else can.
