bluegaspode;582403 Wrote: As to what comes next: the final most voted feature in my previous poll was album and artist list caching (covers included). As I just got a 2star rating in US by someone with a huge library who indeed complains that SqueezePad is just as slow as his Logitech box, guess now it's the right time. I need to take a short break now though. Worked too much in the night the last weeks. As for speed and caching: v 1.5 seems to be considerably quicker than v 1.4, so my former request for caching is not important anymore. I have a collection of 150,000 songs, 20,000+ artists etc and the artist list comes very quicly. The 2 star US rating is unbelievable, he must have a very slow computer! I use a mac mini server and this is much quicker than even a higher spec'ed windows machine. -- ulvatne ulvatne's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29241 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80553 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Announcing SqueezePad - the first dedicated iPad App to controll your SqueezeBoxen !
Hi there Stefan! V1.5 is stunning, and you got my language right. Playlist management is also much improved, and there is no major issues to wish for anymore, so what will be your next move? A small but annouying issue on the squeezeserver itself is that plugins such As Artist Bio, Album Review etc show the html tags instead of formatting then, showing ref... etc. This is not so important on the small controller screen, but given the wonderful screen estate If the Squeezepad, it would be useful to see the links. Is this something you could do in the application, or is it SC to blame? Again, thanks for a terrific application. i'll give you 6 out of 5 stars! -- ulvatne ulvatne's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29241 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80553 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

SqueezePad should be respecting your favourite language that is configured on the iPad (iPad-Settings-General-Language). I have everything perfectly localized to German here. I guess you can't configure Norwegian there ? Didn't think about that the iPad wouldn't let you configure all languages supported by SB-Server. I'll be providing a menu to select a language (or as proposed try to find out if the server tells me the favourite language). That's very easy to do - thanks for the hint ! Of course, the iPad is still not available in Norway (only mr Jobs knows when) and Norwegian is not on the list in settings. IPad launch in Norway will put this issue right, but it would still be fine that the Default SqueezePad language for the menus was the same language that was set on the server software, and then changeable via the controller ( i.e Squeezepad) -- ulvatne ulvatne's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29241 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81403 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Worked perfectly. As I fiddled on the strings.txt, I suddenly realized that it would be nice to have the ability to switch languages on the SqueezePad, or at least have Squeezepad use the preferred language set on SB server. Would be nice since SB guys have supported my native norwegian for such a long time. -- ulvatne ulvatne's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29241 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81403 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Right decision to do that first. By now (after new design has been implemented) I have three major wishes that I thinking would be minor for you to do: - rename 'The current playlist' to 'Playing now' - Have playing access on main page - On Playing Now list, mark which song is playing. -- ulvatne ulvatne's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29241 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81403 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

After a bit investigation I see that artwork is available As long As there is a .jpg file in the folder. Mp3's with artwork embedded doesn't show the artwork. This is the case with both small(menu) artwork and on Now Playing. Artwork for all files are showing up on my controller As I play the, but not in the iPad.

bluegaspode;565631 Wrote: Hi ulvatne, I just created an mp3-album which uses embedded Album Art only (using MediaMonkey) and doesn't have any extra image in the folder. I then did a full rescan of my database to clear the previous images. This renders without a problem with SqueezePad, so I cannot reproduce your problem. Is anyone else seeing this ? If you can get me cometd-logs for your menu where album art is missing today or tomorrow I might still be able to create a bugfix for the next release. Hi. Tried to connect to another server running squeezecenter with an identical library (enterily separate network with backup copy) and evrything works with artwork showing up everywhere . Must be something with my setup on the first squeezecenter. Means you don't need to waste time on this issue.

Re: [slim] Announcing SqueezePad - the first dedicated iPad App to controll your SqueezeBoxen !
Version 1.2 is much better and less buggy than the first one. Here is my bug/wishlist after the first hour of use: - showing of artwork is missing (pretty sure that this was ok in first release) - still no portrait mode - playing now is now ok, should be called that name and not current playlist. When tapping an album før playing, switching to playing now should be automatic. - settings menu should be able to display/select different servers. I have a few, and can't remeber the ip addresses from time to time. - popup menus now working, fine. External links (album review and so on) appears to be broken. Nothing happens except the rotating wait icon. - suggest option for using a local cache on artist lista etc (look to squeemote). Squeezepad feeles really quick on all actions, though. Good! - interface is not the most exiting i have seen. The wonderful screen of the ipad deserves more colors and fine artwork. Skins, anyone? A very fine piece of working, keep the pace and the faith, I will be following! -- ulvatne ulvatne's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29241 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80553 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
