Re: [slim] Weird pauses at end of track in random

2009-01-24 Thread Melor

This bug has been a real thorn in my side, but I caught a pattern
tonight that I will test. It happend twice today that the music never
advanced to the next song and the next song had an apostrophe in the
file name. Could it be that simple?

Check your playlist to see if the next song has an apostrophe. I am
checking by renaming the files to have no apostrophe and seeing if it
makes a difference or if it was a coincidence today. If so, it would
make sense that not all the people here are having the problem. 

So do I thank or curse Robie Nevil and C'est La Vie... That is the song
title that caught my eye... and followed a song that never ended.

Paul

TrackStat is a third party plugin, it should be in server\Plugins if
you have installed it manually, or alternatively it should be visible
in SqueezeCenter Settings/Advanced/Extension Downloader if you have
installed it through Extension Downloader.

If TrackStat isn't installed I think this message might also occur if
you use one of the third party clients like Moose (on Windows) or iPeng
(on an iPhone). If this is the case, I'm pretty sure this isn't causing
your problems.

-Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::checkBin (260) couldn't find binary
for: lame- is only a problem if you actually need lame for something.
I cannot see why you would need it in your setup, as I understand it,
so this message is really just a warning that there are transcoding
options configured for which the binary is not available.

-Slim::Player::Protocols::File::sysread (214) Trying to read past the
end of file- should happen once at the end of each track. You should
already have been getting this before you installed lame.

But it looks like you are getting several in quick succession. Perhaps
several tracks are failing one after another. This can sometimes cause
random play to stop because all the not-yet-played tracks in the
playlist get used up before the random-play plugin adds some more.

2009-01-17 Thread Jackswan

During the last few days I have deleted all the music from the Windows
Home Server and then put it all back on there from my backup. The six
dodgy tracks that I had have been erased and the streaming to the
Squeezebox now seems much, much better in random.
So far since doing this there have been just a few glitches.. but
as I am writing this one of those glitches has just come up, don't know
if it is coincidence or not but it always seems to be on track 9 on
random. The track just stopped dead after playing for about 30 seconds,
but I am able to advance it on to the next track. no logs yet

Re: [slim] Weird pauses at end of track in random

2009-01-13 Thread Jackswan

Did a test on all the Flac files (about 4000)on the Windows Home Server
last night using Audiotester, picked up six tracks that were faulty.
The AC\DC track was obviously one of them. Also checked quite a few
using Flac Frontend and they passed.

I will try erasing all tracks on the server and reinstate from my
backup drive (which I have also tested )to see if that makes a
difference.

As you have mentioned, dropouts can be heard at two points in the AC\DC
track but Foobar does continue playing the track otherwise.

If there are only six tracks that are faulty why does Squeezecenter
continually stop when playing a random mix? Coincidentally it does
always seem to be around the eighth track in the playlist.

As I have said previously the same tracks were used on a server running
Freenas and version 7.0.1 of Squeezecenter and I never had problems
running a random mix on there (this was just a month ago)

Jack - Foobarcontinues playing because it is not checking the FLAC CRC
flags - or if it is, it is ignoring the error. FLAC frontend gets 17%
through the file before it spits out the type 2 error and stops. The
dropouts are in fact audio silence, not data corruption - you can see
the brief periods of silence in Audacity.
I must checkout AudioTester...
I'm not sure about your playlist problem - can you update to the latest
7.3.x version?

Phil, I'm running version 7.3.2 of Squeezecenter at the moment.

So the Flac decoder within Squeezecenter is checking the integrity of
the files if I understand you correctly. Perhaps the boffins at
Logitech could relax this checking slightly as so many people after
reding these forums seem to be having the same problems?

Audiotester seems to work well and very fast, there were six different
faults with the six files that it marked as faulty.

erm - actually SC seems to play the file OK...well, it plays all the
way through. The thing is that the checksum error isn't necessary fatal
- could be the checksum that is inocrrect rather than the data if you
see what i mean?

I'll get AudioTester and check my own files...see what it finds!

Re: [slim] Weird pauses at end of track in random

2009-01-13 Thread awy

First point: there is at least one bug here. I have identified one bug
and this will, as best as I can tell, only be triggered when some error
in the file being played caused the player to quit playing that track
prematurely and in a way that confuses SqueezeCentre. I have not been
able to work out how this bug might get triggered when there is no
error in the track, therefore there is probably a second bug for which
we have not yet uncovered the cause.

Second point: it is possible for FLAC decoders to just keep going when
they come across a bad frame. They drop the bad frame and then look for
the start of the next frame (which it is possible to identify with a
high degree of certainty). I'm pretty sure that this is what the
decoder in SqueezePlay does, but not the one hardware players
(Squeezebox, Boom, Transporter).

Third point: (the bug mentioned above) is a consequence of the fact
that the player firmware FLAC decoder uses the wrong protocol mechanism
to inform SC of the error, and there are good reasons why this is
difficult to fix.

So, we are still hunting for the cause of the second bug. The log that
Jackswan provided only gave us evidence of the first. Additional logs
could be helpful.

I think that this may be bug 7916
(http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=7916). Would you be
prepared to attach that AC/DC track to the bug? I'm beginning to wonder
if indeed there is a problem with the FLAC decoder in the player; a
sample problematic track would help.

file which is 33MB in size.

Let me know and I will send it along.

Jack - not sure how you did that rip but it is corrupt. Audacity can
only open the first 75 seconds of it and there are two complete
dropouts at 61 seconds and 74 seconds...

You can clearly hear these. Also FLAC frontend reports a CRC error type
2 (frame mismatch). Not sure how SB (and VLC, foobar etc) manage to keep
going past that, but the file is corrupt.

Can you re-rip it?
Regards
Phil

PS do you have lots of files like this? It may have become corrupted
after the rip (hard drive problems - it has happened to me very very
rarely).

Re: [slim] Weird pauses at end of track in random

2009-01-11 Thread awy

This is helpful, thanks. We see that SC did not think that it had
finished streaming the track when the player reported that it was ready
to stream the next one. This is odd.

The track that was playing was
///D:/shares/Music/Oasis-(What%27s%20the%20Story)%20Morning%20Glory%BF/4042%20[Untitled%20Track].flac

Did this track play to the end successfully (did you notice)?

Are you able to play this track successfully by hand (as a single
track)?

How long is this track? You can use More Info from the player Now
Playing screen or click on the track name in the WebUI to see this
information.

There are two tracks in the log file, the first is an AC\DC track which
is 5:51 minutes long, this stopped playing at 1:18 minutes, same
happens when selecting as an individual track. But this track plays
fine when playing from the server using FOOBAR.

The second track by Oasis is 5:02 minutes long, this plays fine when
selected as an individual track and also using FOOBAR.

Does seem as though there is something wrong with the Flac transcoder
within Squeezecenter

Here is a log file from when Squeezecenter starting playing up again

It shows the start of the track right up to where the squeezebox
stopped before the end of the track.

The file format is Flac.

Upgraded Squeezecenter to version 7.3.2 to see if this version made any
difference.
Player set to song mix and random tracks stop playing, only advancing
if pressing FWD.

Seems as though Squeezecenter is misreading the size of the file. The
log file seems very similar to the one that Melor posted above.

This is running on Windows Home Server with all available updates
installed.

This is Squeezecenter version 7.2.1 and using Squeezeplay to see if
that replicated the same fault as the Squeezebox, it did.

Darn, was hoping RAM might be the issue - just ordered upgrade from
512MB to 2GB

I'm seeing the stop not just on random playlists but also playing
genres or years. Also weird behavior where it's not remembering the
player status on power off/on (though it does sometimes ... both
players having these issues not just one unit so I'd point fingers at
the server somewhere)

Wondering if there's something else WHS related causing this...

I'm sorry, but it really is too late to investigate this issue for SC
7.2.1. Whilst I cannot sate categorically that it is not the same issue
with SC 7.3, it is highly unlikely as SC7.3 has had a complete rewrite
of the streaming control sub-system.

tried several versions of SS (rebuilding DB each time) and not found one
that works on random but it's not consistant... sometimes it goes 10
mins, other times an hour before crapping out.
Older builds don't seem to be that much different to newer.

Probably not relevant but it stopped a Boom sale this weekend - I was
demo'ing the SB3 to someone ... they're looking at the Sonos which
just works :(

My player got stuck again... The duet remote screen has the now playing

back to 4:03 and the time on the right goes from -59:59 down to -59:30
and cycles again. This is the log that is created after setting the
player.source log level to debug. Pressing advance starts the next song
but I think we can agree that you shouldn't periodically have to kick it
in the butt to advance to the next song!

You might want to try falling back to SqueezeCenter 7.2.x (whatever the

Running on a Windows Home Server, with a pair of SB3s both with
Firmware 121 and showing the same problem

With 7.4 the remote has become pretty unresponsive as well - pause /
play / ffwd can take a couple of seconds to get a response (if at all)

Have voted on the bug... will try downgrading to 7.2 (though that's
probably the last thing I really want to do)

[slim] Weird pauses at end of track in random

2008-12-31 Thread OffBeatMammal

I've been meaning to ask about this for a while in case I'm not alone!

I usually just leave my SB3 playing in Random / Track mode (either set
up from remote or via web interface).

After playing the first few tunes without any problem it seems to start
pausing at the end of tracks and requires a ffwd on the remote to get to
the next track (in which case it often jumps the next track from the
queue and plays the subsequent one)

I'll try a total rebuild of the DB in case that's the issue, but would
appreciate any other suggestions

thanks

I have a new installation of windows home server and installed version
7.3 of Squeezecenter. Immediatly had this problem so upgraded to 7.3.1,
still the same.
So today I have uninstalled Squeezecenter and downgraded to 7.0.1 and
still have the same problem.

Never had this when my server was running Freenas with Squeezecenter
7.0.1.

I've run all the tests available in Squeezecenter on my network and
