Hi
Buffering stops at ~50% then starts to play music. Buffer drops to 0%
then stops playing. Rebuffers up to ~50% starts to play agai, but drops
to 0% then repeats. Only over UMTS, works over WIFI. Strangly it works
when I set the phone to WIFI-access point and connects the Pad the phone
AP. I.e over UMTS to WIFI. Player problem is my conclusion since all
other paths works.

Hi,

I'm using this app on my Galaxy S3 and the phone vibrates in time to the
music. Has anyone seen this and got any ideas?
It's the same with speaker, headphones or bluetooth headphones. Latest
OS and latest version of the app.

many thanks

If you bought it from Google Play then if you uninstall squeezeplay it
will show as purchased and allow you to install again. This will also be
true if you sign into your Google account on another android device. I
have squeezeplay installed on 4 devices with a single purchase.

A (very) minor irritation for me is that Squeeze Player will start up
randomly for no obvious reason. Usually I am away from home so not using
any of the three SqueezeBox controller apps I have installed, or any
other music apps (Last.fm, Poweramp, Spotify) yet Squeeze Player will
start up and sit there for a while in the notification bar before
terminating itself.

Any idea what might be causing this?

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Music-Playback now on ANDROID! SqueezePlayer released to the market ...

2012-12-16 Thread ja2038

I am using SqueezePlayer on several Android devices, getting pretty good
results overall.

I have one device that I wish would do better -- it's an Archos 70 (and
was a mistaken purchase :( ).

It is basically a bedside clock/radio and I have it in a sync group with
a Squeezebox Boom. But as it plays I will frequently hear audio
drop-outs.  When I examine the Archos, Usage Timelines indicate it's
not a CPU problem --the CPU is about 10-20% loaded running
SqueezePlayer.

It's conceivably a wifi issue, but it is hard to tell. Moving it from
room to room may change the frequency of the drop outs, but it's hard to
tell. The dropouts and buffer underruns occur everywhere, even on a
table about three feet away from the router. Android Wifi signal
strength meter widgets would seem to indicate fine wifi in the bedroom,
and really it's only one wall and about 15 feet from the router. Wifi is
connecting at 54Mbps.

If I put squeezeplayer on my phone and set the phone right next to the
Archos, I can see the phone's squeezeplayer showing a buffer filled to
about 50% on average, while the Archos squeezeplayer is reporting a 20%
buffer fill (which frequently drops to 0% at which point the audio drops
out.)

So I am just curious, what do others think the root cause might be? And
is there anything I can do to try to get the Archos and Squeezeplayer to
buffer more?

Increasing buffers usually don't help when the buffer underruns
regularly. Unfortunately I don't have an idea, why the Archos is not
getting data as fast as the phone side by side.
If you want to see if an increased buffer does help I'd have a special

Yeah, I can understand that. The device isn't filling the buffers it
has, larger buffers wouldn't seem to help.

I suspect the problem is more one in the networking stack and the

I am curious, though, about how squeezeserver works.

I have the impression that when streaming an Internet radio source, each
squeezebox/squeezeplayer/squeezethingy creates its own independent
stream to the source -- that the original source is not first sent to
the squeezeserver and then to the clients.  Is that accurate?  If so, I
am curious, are various internet streaming protocols synchronized
differently than when the squeezeserver is serving the content from its
libraries?

I think that 99.99% of the times I see the buffer underruns it is with
Internet radio sources, but I can't recall ever seeing buffer underruns
when streaming from the music library of the squeezeserver. 

I dunno. It's aggravating, because when it is working well on a good
android device, squeezeserver is wonderful, (but I have a bunch of
cheapo android devices laying around I would like it work better on.)

Hi castalla, 

as written per mail: SqueezePlayer indeed does only support mp3 and FLAC
natively.
BUT: it depends on your Squeezebox-Server, whether it supports more
formats, as the Squeezebox-Server is able to transcode almost everything
to FLAC and/or mp3, which is why most users don't need to care for the
actual file format.

Good to know, thank you Mick. Still I have to try with the tablet of my
choice. As I understand some of Stefan's earlier post in this thread it
depends on the hardware and probably the Android version how well
synchronisation to the other players works. 

I haven't quite made up my mind what tablet I want to use for this.
Initially the idea was to try with any of these dirt cheap ones which
are now available from about 60 Euros. That would probably be the
cheapest Squeezebox ever (if we disregard the raspberry pi, which I
don't consider a ready-to-use consumer product). In my opinion, if the
tablet has nothing else to do but reproducing audio, then even an
outdated, slow unit should be good enough for the job. Or does anyone
disagree?

Anyway, lately I wonder if it wouldn't be better to spend 200 Euros on a
Nexus 7 which is pretty much state-of-the-art and should offer the
option to upgrade with an external USB DAC (at least in theory, so far
it seems nobody really tried this) if the analog output doesn't sound
good (as somebody from a German HiFi forum wrote).  

Any thoughts on this, anyone, please?

Also one specific question (Stefan?) - would a USB to TOSlink converter
such as this one:
http://www.inline-info.de/art/de/89909D/InLineAudioKonverter%2CEingangUSB%2CAusgangOptoToslinkundKlinke%2Cschwarz.html

fall into that same USB Dacs/USB audio device category which should be
supported in JellyBean? Because I already have one of these. For
windows, it works without requiring any driver.

I can feel your pain. My first experience with a tablet was very

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Music-Playback now on ANDROID! SqueezePlayer released to the market ...

2012-11-10 Thread Brian Ritchie

Can someone PLEASE tell me how to get this onto the Kindle Fire?

I've already installed Squeeze Commander (via slideme.org, IIRC), and it
works fine. I've already told the Fire to allow apps from other
sources.

As per the instructions at the start of this thread, I went to Android
Pit, and bought the app. Then - and not before they'd taken my money -
their instructions told me I'd have to either install their App Center
on my phone, or download the APK file; but there are no more details
on how to do either of these things!

Well, their instructions for their App Center say, go to this website
in your phone's web browser and click on Download now. There's no such
link on the homepage. The most appropriate-looking thing I can find
(buried amongst all the other app adverts) is an installation link for
an AndroidPit App, but that takes me to Google Play - which is no good
for the Kindle Fire.

I'd be happy to try to download the APK file, but I can't find any way
to do that at all - the only thing I can do with the app is to click on
the Install button - which just takes me to the same bloody page telling
me I need to install the App Center first.

I thought this would be a fun thing to try, but a frustrating hour-plus
later, I just feel like I'm trapped in a Kafka story!

I know that the issue is really about AndroidPit than about SqueezePlay,
but I've found AndroidPit's forums useless.

2012-11-07 Thread Pete Gintz

I've been looking at tablets for a while now  wondering how they'd work
as a Squeezebox 3 alternative.
Ideally, i'd vesa wall-mount something like a 7  Nexus or Samsung
Galaxy Tab 2, and use the WiFi connection to access my Logitech Media
Server.
So far, this seems to be what many people here are doing. Additionally
though, i'd like to keep the wiring to a minimum by using Bluetooth to
connect to a blue-tooth capable amp.
As I understand Bluetooth 3  4, they use the bluetooth protocol to
establish the connection, but the bulk of the data is actually
transmitted via wi-fi. Whether or not that is correct,
my query is would the App ( tablet hardware) allow simultaneous
retrieval of 320K MP3 files (wi-fi)   transmission of files (bluetooth)
to amp? Would there be any lag?

Also, I can only find 2 screenshots of the software, so am not too sure
how it looks or would scale to a 7 display: Is it only portrait,  is
there a possibility in the future of an interface
mimicking the Squeezebox 3s (ie. songtitle/time remaining with
background spectrum analyser)?

Sorry if this has already been answered, it's quite a long thread!   :)

SqueezePlayer is the playback component on Android. It looks like any
other player, hardware or software.

OrangeSqueeze and SqueezeCommander are controlling apps. (I use
OrangeSqueeze. It has in-app communication with SqueezePlayer, ie to
start the playback program automatically when OrangeSqueeze starts.)

Bluetooth is bluetooth and wi-fi is wi-fi. There is no crossover.

Using these programs (at Best Buy) linked to my home server via BB's
wi-fi, I paired the Nexus 7 to some Samsung bt speakers and had no
trouble with control/playback of 320CBR mp3's. BB's wi-fi is really
crappy because of the huge number of devices in the store trying to
connect and I feel sure that in a local setting you would have no
problem streaming higher quality files.

Hi Pete, 

I think everything from your question has been answered already (thanks
a lot!)?
But in short
- no known problems with receiving audio via Wifi and sending audio via
Bluetooth
- SqueezePlayers screen is just for startup - after that one of the
Controller Apps (Logitech, OrangeSqueeze (recommended) or
SqueezeCommander) takes over and will be visible most of the time on
your table). 
If you use OrangeSqueeze you will only see SqueezePlayers screen for the
very first setup - then never ever again.

When the file is encoded replay gain (RG) data has to be added for the
system to work.  I use dBPoweramp with the RG plug-in when ripping
CDs.  The player can then either interpret the RG data in the file and
apply it - or ignore it. However it is up to the player whether it is
used or not, so in that sense it is something the player does.

I have it set up to work with playlists but not when listening to an
album.  That is an option you can set in LMS.

Yes, the RG is in the tags (to be used or not by player).  dbpa can add
after the fact (convert to RG DSP), or foobar2000 has an excellent RG

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Music-Playback now on ANDROID! SqueezePlayer released to the market ...

2012-10-26 Thread pippin

It's both the player and the server who have to support it.
The server generates replay gain values which then have to be used by
the player.
I can only speak for iPeng but I believe it will be similar for
SqueezePlayer: there are two ways to control volume on a phone player:
you can modify the actual audio data (that's what the Squeezebox does
and where the replay gain values usually come in) and you can change the
devices' system volume.
Now, the problem is, that what you want to do on a phone is to use the
system volume. There are three reasons:
1. When in a dock, some docks them can use analog volume control so you
gain some quality. Some phones also might do the actual volume control
in the analog domain.
2. The system volume has hard-wired control through buttons and the
phone UI. You can't turn that off (at least on iOS), so if you do not
use it, you end up using TWO volume controls that multiply in effect and
you effectively lost capabilities as remote volume control 
3. Doing your own volume leveling in the digital domain will increase
the CPU load and power consumption.

There are ways to get around it, but it's work.

now that Android supports external USB DACs with JellyBean, would
SqueezePlayer also use that output? If so, would it support more than
16bi/44.1kHz? And if so, what would I need to do on both the

2012-10-16 Thread bluegaspode

Unfortunately Android before Jelly Bean does only support 16/44.
With Jelly-Bean there is a completely new AudioAPI, which I guess is
able to except higher audio rates - but I don't know yet, if it really
forwards everything to an USB Dac (and I'm afraid this even depends on
the particular device).

In addition the market share of Jelly bean right now is 1,8%. The number
of users then connecting an USB-Dac is even lower and those then using
Squeezebox/SqueezePlayer I guess is about 10.

So right now it doesn't look very promising to me, to already spend the
time needed to implement a completely additional audio API.
This doesn't mean I won't do it - but it's definitely not the right time
yet for a single developer to already invest high volumes of development
effort into such a topic.

Are there actually other Apps already available who do support USB-Dacs
with high resolution audio (and have user who can prove that it works)
?
That would be at least a hint that it is possible at all (because I
don't want to be the first one to try)?

I can see your point - I was naive enough to assume that they would have
used the pre ICS/JellyBean audio API with small modifications so that
adaptation for 3rd party developers would be fairly easy. I'll stick
with 16/44 for now and hope that there is enough interest in the
future... I am just dreaming of a Squeezeserver/LMS attached Tablet

As long as there is now adequate UPnP or similar adequate solution for

 to want to connect to my server if it's the only player connected.
 
 I have a Squeezebox Radio and if that is connected first then the
 SqueezePlay app always connects fine. If it's not then it just sits
 there saying connecting but can't find a player.
 
 Am I doing something obviously wrong?

Hi Steve, 
I'm not aware of problems with SqueezePlayer connecting - even if it's
the only player.

Can you install the 'aLogCat'-App. It is able to send log-files and
maybe I can find something in them after such a connection problem.
Please provide the logfiles to support(at)squeezeplayer.com.

Do you already have an Android phone? You purchase on your account and
then the software is usable on any device you own with that Google
account on it. I bought the software on my Desire Z but have also
installed on my cheapo generic tablet as well.

Pretty much as above.

I have Slimserver running on an old QNAP TS101 via wifi with a SB3
squeezebox, and want to do the the same with my Galaxy Tab2.
The tablet reports playback is on in it's SP app, but when I start the

in and available on the network.

Slim server can't see the the android player via it's web interface

I've entered the server location manually, as the app didn't find it
automatically.

Any help will be appriciated.

If SqueezePlayer ist saying WiFi connected it should definitely be

As you are saying SlimServer are you using at least version 7.4 ?

It's an old version.

SlimServer Version: 6.3.1 - 8476 - Debian - EN - utf8 

I don't think anything more recent will work on the QNAP TS101, as it
has very little memory. It still works great with my SB3.

I thought it would be just a case of pointing it at Slim Server.
Obviously not.

What would I have to do to get this working, or would the updated
Logitech versions work on the QNAP ?

Hi 2pods, 
from the SqueezePlayer side there is nothing you can do to make it work,
as it only support server version 7.4+ . 
So you either need to try an upgrade on your QNAP (I don't have any
personal experience about whether it would/could work) or you can write
me a mail (with your ordner number) to support(at)squeezeplayer.com, if
you want me to refund you your purchase.

I'm very sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Is it 4.0 ICS or 4.1 Jellybean, as I had a similar issue with 4.1 - it
appears to be an Android issue. There is a solution, but squeezeplayer
cannot be restored from a backup and retain the license you have paid
for.

Please download the aLogCat App and send me logs with this app to
support(at)squeezeplayer.com
What happens is the following: after a fresh install there is a grace
period, where the App will try to contact Googles licensing servers. If
this fails for a longer time it will present the licensing dialog.
Looking at the logs will help to identify your issue.

As written before: on ICS Google did introduce some problems with some
payed Apps.
According to this report:
http://www.h-online.com/newsticker/news/item/Google-forced-to-temporarily-deactivate-copy-protection-for-Android-apps-1661755.html
updating Google Play and reinstalling the App might help.
I'm not sure though, if it will really help with SqueezePlayer and if
its the same problem.

Another possible workaround is to purchase via AndroidPit (send me your
Google order number, I can refund it easily).

I'm very very sorry about the inconvenience. It's very depressing, when
license management prevents paying users from using the App :(

2012-08-12 Thread bluegaspode

I just uploaded version 1.3.4 to the Play Store


-  On Android 4.x devices, SqueezePlayer now prevents that the WiFi
  throughput is throttled when the display is off. Buffering issues you
  might have been seeing due to this should be gone.
-  SqueezePlayer has been recompiled to also support devices with MIPS
  processor
  

So if you are on an Android 4.x devices and are facing buffering issues,
you should really give this version a try.

The second percentage goes to 0% after a few minutes but before the
first percentage is falling it goes back to 99%. This repeats itself
after a few minutes. Overall the music didn't stop playing and that is
what it is expected to do.
I hope this info helps you to better your program.

 The second percentage is the download buffer = if it's at 0% the mp3

 go down as well, as there's is nothing to fill it again.
 
 As you say the second percentage goes down first, this means that
 SqueezePlayer is not able to download enough data fast enough.
 Either your network is not fast enough or your server has problems
 sending out enough data.
 
 You are using WiFi, do you? Anything else that might stress your network
 (big downloads, whatever?)
 
 
 I'm analyzing those crashs right now and hope to resolve them this
 week(end?).
I have the same problem here. After a minute or two the music stops
playing. When I watch the Squeezeplayer app I see after a couple of
minutes the second percentage going to 0%. After that the first goes
down to 0% also and the music stops.
I'm using Wifi (150Mbps) and the Squeezeserver is installed on a
computer (Intel Pentium 4600 + 4Gb memory). I have no problem playing
music on my Squeezebox Boom (also Wifi).
My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S 2 with Android 4.0.3 installed.

Hi kingalien, 

another user recently detected, that the order in which he synchronizes
devices matters. SqueezePlayer (in the current version) only works as
expected, when it is synced to another device (i.e. being a slave in the
sync group).
I doesn't like being synced to (i.e. being the first device in a sync
group).

Maybe this already solves (part of) your trouble, if not I'm afraid
you'll have to wait for me being back from my holidays where I'm able to
access my Squeezeboxes for further tests.

not able to test myself.
I never did test synchronization between SqueezeSlave + SqueezePlayer -
my tests so far only involved SqueezePlayer and real Squeezeboxes.

I think there might be something different about how you handle
synchronization compared to other SW players.
I noticed a similar issue when trying to sync SqueezePad to iPeng plus a
radio while both iPeng+Radio and SqueezePad+Radio alone worked fine.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Music-Playback now on ANDROID! SqueezePlayer released to the market ...

2012-07-20 Thread kingallen

I have been running a squeezebox radio along with squeezeplayer on 1 or
2 HTC Evo 4g's.  Fine and dandy using either web based control, control
on radio, squeezecommander or orange squeeze.

The other night i added squeezeslave as a service to 2 of my local
HTPC's.

The problem:

If i try to group the htpcs with squeezeslave services with
squeezeplayer things go haywire. 

Radio with 2 squeezeslaves in a group: Fine
Radio with 2 squeezeplayers in a group: Fine
Any combination of squeezeplayer(s) and squeezeslave(s) in a group: no
good
I can even run 2 separate sync groups: 1 with the squeezeslaves, 1 with
squeezeplayers (radio added to either/or) with no problem

I understand that sync isn't always going to be perfect using software
and hardware based players.  Delays in sync are fine, I understand the
limitations.

Basically this is what happens,  the only way to get squeezeplayers to
play while synced with squeezeslave is to turn off all other devices in
group, turn on squeezeplayers, press play, then turn on other devices
(radio, htpcs).  After playing through a few songs from my local library
i get audio dropouts and my radio displays rebuffering after it
rebuffers audio on the radio  htpcs starts but squeezeplayers audio
stops even though the squeezeplayers are turned on.  In that scenario if
you check buffers in the actual squeezeplayer app it displays somewhere
around 95%/98% but shows that the status is either paused or stopped. 
If i make one of the squeezeplayers the active player in any of the
controls it shows they are in fact playing.  Every couple of songs it
continually rebuffers on radio and squeezeslave unless i power off the
grouped squeezeplayer devices.  After the first initial rebuffer, track
time progress towards the end of songs is screwy (counts down to 0:00
and then does -0:01. -0:02 repeatedly) and album art doesn't display new
song until about 30 secs into it.

Strange things, any help would be appreciated greatly.

Hi 

Not sure if this is a bug with SqueezePlayer, SqueezeCommander or just
user error, but I'm having trouble with alarms. 

I've used a SB3 for ages and thought that I'd add SqueezePlayer to use
as a sort of alarm clock. I'm using Squeezecommander for control and
both SqueezeCommander (v0.9.6.4) and SqueezePlayer (v1.1.3)  are running
on a Samsung Galaxy SII (Android: IceCream Sandwich).

I set the alarm to come on at the required time and play a BBC radio
station via the iPlayer plug-in. 

The problem: The alarm always comes on at the required time but the
stream only plays for about 10-15 seconds before becomming silent. if I
move to the SqueezeCommander interface it still thinks it's playing
(icon shows a pause button) if I hit the pause button and then the play
button the sound starts again and carries on until i turn it off.

This doesn't happen if I use my SB3 instead of SqueezePlayer.

Anyone got any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

Wow. In _some_ areas Android seems to be superior to iOS, there you have
to keep an App in the foreground to start playing an alarm at all.

Nah. It's just that the Android app programmers are better ;-)

So all that crap on the Play Store is just disguise?

Well yes on Android any App can have background services running as long
as they want. Which is why SqueezePlayer stays alive even when silent
(but only when the device is connected to the mains) 

Never would have thought though, that someone would use it as an alarm
clock. 
Please take care with this solution: if your device disconnects from the
network or the server goes down for any reason, the alarm will fail. 
Squeezeboxes do have a fallback implementation, SqueezePlayer does not. 

Now to your problem : to be honest I don't know would could be causing
it. 
Did you try with some different stream (normal radio station not via
BBCiPlayer). I think there was something special about their streams,
which also triggered the fallback alarm on the SB-Radio quite often. 

When the stream is silent: what buffer values is SqueezePad showing on
the bottom?

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Music-Playback now on ANDROID! SqueezePlayer released to the market ...

2012-07-14 Thread raidermc

Good day to all;

have everything running but have a problem with all my players syncing
correctly.

I am using old Droid 1 (2)  and a Droid 2 for players.

the first song played is close but when the next is started syncing is
way out from one player to another.

If I start the song over on the server side it syncs up again however
the next song its not.

Also when I skip to the next song the same thing happens with it not
syncing using orangesqweeze interface.

Other than that issue the app works very well.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

I'll publish an update tonight. There is a bug with gapless playback
(some milliseconds at the end of the song are sometimes skipped) which
might cause problems for the second song. Please try with this version
again.
