I totally disagree.I have only just purchased iPeng, and had to do
so 3 times for different iPhones.It is worth the money just for the
following functions:
- ability to adjust the volumes individually/grouped
- ability to disable the play button
- the ease of being able to add next / add to end

Yep,  that fixes it.   To anyone else struggling with this, move your
finger in the shape of a heartbeat monitor when using the sliders.

Thanks!!

Ah no, my phone is on ios10.   I didn’t want to upgrade it until I could
see everything was working.  My iPad is ios11 and the sliders drag on
that.   I don,t have any accessibility features enabled on either.   My
wife’s phone is ios11 so I will test with hers later and let you know.

I switched off party mode, closed app, re-opened and the same.  I can
unsynch and synch my players, and mute, I can pause/play all, and change
master volume.  Just cannot change individual volumes.

It’s an iPhone 6.  If I press the toggle the sliders appear, but they do
not respond to anything but a double tap to mute.   The master slider
responds, just not the individual.

Fantastic.   You have just got a few more sales.   Good stuff.

I have noticed that when I group players together I can change the
volume individually on the iPad, but can only change them all together
on the iPhone.  Is that a bug?

Dont worry about it, itll be worth it to play my music and
save me from moving to sonos for a few more months.  Family sharing
works for families with young kids, but as soon you switch it on the
main member (me) would then pay for any films / music the kids at
university download.

I penguin party - that is fair enough, although could you add a setting
into iPeng9 to disable the play button? Before Halloween?

i suppose my question is can i do it the other way round.   if i buy a
sonos, and this allows me to keep my spotify account going forward, can
i then use the output from a sonos to feed into my existing SB devices. 
i realise that the synchronisation will not be there but that is ok.

but my girlfriend cannot.  It is too temperamental (SB not her).   I
have been looking at a boom, another radio or touch for the garden, and
don't know if i should invest furtherer jump ship. I also have an

i have been trying to workout a way of phasing my approach, streaming
from sonos to SB or vice versa.  i assume this cannot be done.

Re: [slim] possible to reach mp3 files from outside my network?

2008-09-10 Thread wilgartw

your router needs to port forward  your isp (usually) also needs to
give you a static ip address.  then you just hit port 9000 with a
webpage, and set up your mp3 player to hit the same port.

sounds complicated but isn't.

so firstly, check if you have a static ip address.  then see if your
router can port forward.

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter: Artwork Folder (artwork not showing)

2008-09-01 Thread wilgartw

it is very impotant where the quotes are, and what type of quotes are
used.

NEWDIR=`ls -d ../../Music/Flac/$ARTIST/$ALBUM*`


note the single quotes.  they are backwards, it is the one above the
tab key.  this single quote says execute the command, and use the
output

the double quotes tell the ls command that the filename is all one
file/dir  ie allow spaces once $ARTIST has been inetrpreted.

the ls -d says print the name of the directory.  and the * says
complete the name of the album (ie add in the year).

hope you get this working, you are very close.

unfortunately i cannot access this forum from work. but i will log on
again this evening

how many do you have and what's the average size.  as said previously. 
if you can upload them somewhere i can produce a selfextracting zip that

actually, just read this
http://developer.apple.com/internet/opensource/opensourcescripting.html

and it looks like you can use any shell scripting.

let me just tweak the above script to your requirements and test it.

give me 5 mins.

quick question, do the filenames have spaces either side of the dash?

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter: Artwork Folder (artwork not showing)

2008-08-31 Thread wilgartw

here is the script, tested on my system

for file in *jpg
do
ARTIST1=${file#*- }
ARTIST=${ARTIST1%.*}
ALBUM=${file% -*}
echo ###$ARTIST/$ALBUM
if [[ -d ../$ARTIST/$ALBUM/ ]]
then
mv $file ../$ARTIST/$ALBUM/cover.jpg
else
echo $file could not be moved  error.log
fi

done

just open up the terminal as instructed in the link above, the shell is
/bin/bash
cd to your pictures directory, then copy and paste each line by line
into the terminal.  it should work.  it may be wise to make a copy of
your directory first ;)

oops spotted an error..

for file in *jpg
do
ARTIST1=${file#*- }
ARTIST=${ARTIST1%.*}
ALBUM=${file% -*}
echo ###$ARTIST/$ALBUM
if [[ -d ../Music/$ARTIST/$ALBUM/ ]]
then
mv $file ../Music/$ARTIST/$ALBUM/cover.jpg
else
echo $file could not be moved  error.log
fi
done


if you run this script whilst in the /Users/Myusername/Pictures/
directory

it will take a file called 1999 - Prince.jpg  and move it to 
/Users/Myusername/Music/Prince/1999 and rename it to cover.jpg

if /Users/Myusername/Music/Prince/1999/ does not exist it will create
a line in error.log and leave the file where it is.

if you wanted to test it with just a small set of files change the
first line to (for eg) for file in 1999*jpg

 This looks good. In your example it should move the file to
 /Users/Myusername/Music/Flac/Prince/1999 (year of album release)
 
 Will this work?

sorry bad example 1999 is the album name, not the year of release
(that'd be 1983 from memory)

ah, well that makes it quite difficult as you don't have the year in the
pictures folder anywhere (perhaps this is your issue as to why it
doesn't show...)

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter: Artwork Folder (artwork not showing)

2008-08-31 Thread wilgartw

test it first by changing the first line to
for file in Parklife*jpg

or any other album name.

issues i can forsee ... 
where you have two dashes in a name.
where the album name in your music directory is called whatever (disc
2) year .. but i think that should be ok.

just to check.

your working directory the ones with the jpgs in is 
Users/Myusername/Pictures/
not
Users/Myusername/Pictures/AlbumArt

if it is the latter you need to chamnge the line to read

NEWDIR=`ls -d ../../Music/Flac/$ARTIST/$ALBUM*`

that should work.  what happens if you just type
ls -d ../../Music/Flac/$ARTIST/$ALBUM*


if that errors try putting in the full path
eg
ls -d /Users/Myusername/Music/Flac/$ARTIST/$ALBUM*
