The shuffle selection is on the Now Playing screen - Two crossed

I have the paid version of the app and would like to know how to play
ALL songs in a particular folder and also if there's a way to toggle a
RANDOM play option.  Thanks

P.S. I know this is somewhat off-topic, but I wonder if Orange Bike Laps
tried integrating Grooveshark on this app or not.

To db122

Small suggestion.  Had you given any thought to making it easier to call
up the "Lyrics" tag?  I am in the process of adding lyrics data to all
my music (automated using Foobar) and at the moment I have to press and
hold on the album art to call up a list of items.  Viewing the lyrics
tag is the 13th item on the list.

Apparently there is a way to do it on iPeng for iOS, perhaps you could
look at it and see if it would be worth doing for Android?

Best wishes and thanks for providing this great app!

Hi there. I was wondering if it would be possible to add a notification
widget like the music player or the other remotes like xbmc have; where
a pause/back/next widget with album art is placed in the notification
area? This would be very useful for quick access.

Hi 

I think I have discovered a bug.

If you connect to a server without any connected player, you are asked
if you want to associate a player from another server to the new server.
This is very good, however, if you answer yes to that question you
change the association for all the players and not only the one you
selected.

2013-03-07 Thread NeilF

Another suggestion? - When you return to your playlist, return to the
view you were last in.

So I'm building up a playlist, and can see the 5 tracks in it... I
return to my search, add another few tracks and go back to my playlist
(by clicking at the bottom of the screen). But by default it returns me
to the "now playing" screen, instead of the "playlist" screen I was last
on.

So I find every time I return to my playlist (by clicking at the bottom
of the screen), the first I then have to do is click the top of the
screen to go to my playlist.

Or is there a way to go directly to the playlist without going
unnecessarily through the "Now Playing" screen.

Not at all. Most of my suggestions are minor annoyance. The scroller
widget is a pain thought to be frank... If there was option to display a
perminent scroller widget down the right - when necessary - it would
allow quicker and more reliable navigation for a tiny tiny fraction of
the screen space.

I'd suggest an option to have the the scroll bar perminantly available
down the right part of the screen. So rather than having to scroll to
grab it, you can just place your finger where ever you like on it over
the vertical range (or slide it) to get to your desired position.

Want to get to the end of the list? At the moment you have to scroll,
grab the scroll widget that's now appeared, and then drag it to the
bottom. With my sugestion you'd just place your finger at the bottom of
the scroll widget. Done! If you want to instead scroll through your
music, just slide your finger up and down the scroll bar...

Simple, quicker, easier. Surely that's what we want?

By all means have an option to behave this alternative (simpler) way
only if you want to dedicate a tiny part of the screen to constantly
displayed scroll widgets.

It's great you can pick up a song in your playlist and re-order it, but
its not intuitive that you have to grab it by the far left of the line. 

I suspect the only reason this "magic area" exists is because "holding"
a line (which you'd do for a drag'n'drop) opens up the sub options. I'd
argue this isn't necessary, as you can get to the sub options (quicker)
by clicking the arrow at the far right of the line. Personally I'd think
the whole/majority of the line should work the same. ie: You should be
able to drag an drop a song by grabbing hold of the line, and not just a
magical area to the far left.

My instinct is to grab the middle/end of the title... Which does not
work of course. This is a minor thing though!

> Really, what is this one about?  At the moment it is a two click job and

> it's minor, but I guess it's more of a general example. Given a
bigger screen, there's more space available, so some of the main option
currently tucked away in sub menus could be offered on each line.

The most likely thing you want to do with a track in your playlist is:-
a) Drag and drop it. (Which you can do)
b) Play it now. (Single click)
c) Remove it.

To do (c) you have to hold the line, or click at the end of the line,
and then you're presented with a screenful of options/information... In
the middle of which is "X Remove from playlist". Simply pressed a
dedicated X towards the end of the line would be nice. eg: I could
remove 5 tracks in less than a second that way.

As I said previously, most of these are just (personal)
annoyances/preferences, but (1) with the scroller widget really is
painful for me. Just this evening, I was scrolling through a list of
tracks, paused to see the list, and voila the widget was 'ungrasped',
disappeared, an then as my finger is over a song I get the options
appear for this track, which of course I don't want. Not only am I now
in sub options I don't want to be in, but I've even lost widget that's
now off the screen. Just have an option to leave a dedicated scroller on
the right pllleesse!

You simply have very different requirements. On the phone you really
have to max out on saving screen estate while its relatively easy to use
simple single-touch gestures
On a tablet you want to provide more controls and while single-touch
gestures are less precise you can also use multi-touch gestures or more

The only one of the points I agree with is adding to the play list. I
really like the way squeeze Commander does this. There's a button at the
top which changes what clicking on a track does. So you can set it to
play, add to end or play next. Makes adding tracks to play list very
easy. I hate it when I accidentally click instead of holding and start a
track playing and loose all the tracks I've already added to a play
list.

This alphabetic scroll bar is brilliant, and one of the main attractions

I use this on the tiniest Android touch screen phone and those extra

Re: [slim] ANN: Orange Squeeze 1.3.0 released!

2013-03-06 Thread NeilF

OK. Having a couple of problems with the app, which frankly are putting
me off even using it :(

I'm using this on a 10" android tablet.


_*Navigating_lists*_
When confronted with a list of thousands of artists, albums or tracks,
you obviously want to be able to scroll quicky. I find the tiny scroll
widget on the right unfriendly and unreliable.

So you scroll the list for the widget to appear, and then you have about
1-2 second to put a finger on it to use it. Miss that and you're
probably just going to click a track by accident.

If you do 'grab it,' you're quite prone, as you slide you're finger up
and down the screen, to losing that grasp. Where you again end up
clicking on a track instead.

Why not just have a scroll bar ALWAYS displayed down the right, and you
can click anywhere you like on it to position yourself in the list. The
fancy widget is just that, fancy, but seems to cause unnecessary grief.

_*Playing_or_adding_to_play_list*_
So you've got a load of tracks on the screen, and you want to add them
to the playlist. You have to go into each one individually, and then
selected "+ Add to Playlist". Why not have two buttons next to each
entry? A "+" to add to playlist, and a ">" to play now?

So you can add tracks to the play list with a single click, rather than
multiple clicks and the faff of going into sub options.

_*Artwork_not_appearing*_
In searches, some album artwork appears and some does not. I can find
all the albums from for an artist, and the first album as art, and the
next three do not. Same search in Logitechs free app, returns art for
all four albums. Indeed, in Orange Squeeze if you play the artless
albums, they then show the art in the "Playing" screen(s).



(1) and (2) are app killers for me... (3) is frustrating :(

I don't worry about tags. They're either there or not. I'm not talking
about disk 1 tags and disk 2 tags. I'm talking about disk 1 being one
folder and disc 2 being a different folder. If I hold the album name,
I'll go to the folder for that disc with no good way to jump to the
other disc. As far as the software is concerned, they're unrelated. But
they're in a common parent folder and will appear alphabetically. If I
can drill up and NOT be at the *top* of the parent folder but rather,
where the current folder is in the list, the previous folder would be
directly above it.

No, I did not, that's helpful. Thank you.

Interestingly, there appears to be a limit on the number of "albums" (in
my case, they're folders) that can be displayed. There is an artist for
which I have a great deal of music and the display limit is reached long
before the end of the list would be reached. Even if there were no
limit, the list would be rather uselessly long. It would be easier to
just go back to the library and drill down than to use it. It would be
very useful to me to be able to "drill up" from the track, as long as
when I went up each level, I was *at* the parent item on the list and
not the top of the parent list.

I have no idea if "drilling up" would be as useful to other people as it
would be to me.

Re: [slim] ANN: Orange Squeeze 1.3.0 released!

2013-02-25 Thread jstraw

I've been using Orange Squeeze for a while now and I truly love it. I
would like to request the following enhancements with the understanding
that it may be that I just haven't figure out how to set some
preferences properly.

1. The ability to set it so that incoming calls only mute the
application if the active player is the phone and not if Orange Squeeze
is controlling another device.

2. The option to shut off album art to have that screen real estate used
for easier to read (larger) text.

3. More and better themes. I would like control over font size or the
ability to select themes that deal with font size in a variety of
configurations. In particular, It's not useful for me to see "artist"
larger than "title" and "album." What I need to see most easily is
"title."

4. The ability to go into a track and not just be able to navigate to
the album, genre, year or the artist but also up the folder tree. For
example, if I'm listening to disc 2, track 6, I can easily play all of
disc 2 but not easily get to disc 1 if my library sees that as a
different folder/album.

Great app. Thank you so much.

My network setup is with the SB Server at my home with some of the
players located there, and I have some players located at my girlfriends
home, and this is where I have been testing the Orange Squeeze app too(I
do of course have the proper ports in the routers forwarded so WOL and
the players will work from the outside of my network).
I had similar WOL issues with my SB Touch which is located outside the
SB server network too, but there I could modify the WakeOnLan.lua file
so it would contain a fixed MAC and IP address for the SB server and
then WOL works fine from the Touch. I would guess that if you have
reused some of the Squeezeplay routines in the Orange Squeeze app, that
will show similar behaviour. Maybe you could add a manual input IP field
like you have have the MAC address option ?

Can you elaborate on your network setup? If Orange Squeeze has trouble
deciding/locating the proper broadcast address for the WOL packet, it
won't send it, so that seems like what is likely happening. In
particular, it will only send WOL over WiFi.

I am currently testing this great app to see if I should by an Android
tablet and stick it on the wall for my music system, and I must say that
it works like a treat :-)
My main problem is, that I can not get wake on lan to work, I have tried
with both auto and manual MAC address but no luck.
I am currently running the 1.4 preview, and I test it onBlue Stack app
player on my PC. I have tested a dedicated android WOL app on this
setup, and that works nicely.

I did some packet analyzing with Wire shark, and there I can see that
the Orange Squeeze program does not send out any WOL packets.

I use the app from outside my homenetwork, but other apps works ok with
this setup, so Orange Squeeze should be able to do the same, have other
users had problems with this ?

Not really a known issue, but that doesn't make it valid. I use it on a
N7 all the time. What LMS server version?

I'd love to see logs generated when these connection hiccups happen.
With a N7 you can use a trick to send a developer report by holding down
vol up/vol down/power simultaneously. Android 4.1 made it much harder to
get reliable log files from non-rooted devices. You can also use the
menu item in preferences to submit logs, but often by the time you
navigate there the relevant data is gone.

Also, you might try the preview builds if you haven't already. There are
quite a few connectivity-related changes (but nothing specific I can
point to to solve your problem) in the 1.4-preview series.

I thought I asked this before, but can't seem to find it...

Would you please consider possibly adding a volume control to the
lockscreen plugin?

I would find that really helpful; I'm often having to unlock the phone
to adjust the volume, but I can do most other quick tasks from the
plugin.

Adding a slider might be hard, but perhaps +/- buttons would do?

thanks for considering it...

However i noticed one thing. I am using the DenonSerial addon on my
Squeezebox to control the volume on my Denon Amp.

This works like a charm with the volume buttons in the standard version,
however in the preview version the volume is listed as "locked" and
cannot be changed.

Lastly i see a few posts about optimizing screen realestate for tablets.

Just dropped a new preview release out on Google Play. It's pretty big,
as these release go, because it adds support for modifying player alarms
and other items through the player settings jive menu. Lots of other

The issue I mentioned previously about the back button is not limited to
Pandora etc. Here's the various behaviors
Tablet (Transformer): back button on all Orange Squeeze screens but not
on widget
Phone (HTC Rezound): back button is there on now playing screen only,
other screens have next in the title bar but no back and it's not on the

Still an awesome app :)

You can't, it doesn't. There's no real extra playlist management beyond
what the basic Jive support enables.

Hi there, thanks for reporting. This is a known issue and as you note,
the easiest workaround is to use the triangle.  That's what I use all
the time, which is why the long-press problem wasn't caught earlier.

You're going to be seeing lots of turnover and general instability in
the preview version for the next month or so, so if your tolerance for
bugs is low it's a great time to stick with 1.3.7! :-)

Hi 
I just updated to the new version today (preview 1.4.0 -20130116-1120)-
but now there is a problem:

If you are at the artist page and want to play an album, you often get
the album below the one you want to hear:

If you have a long press on the cover picture - you always get the album
below.
If you have a long press on the Album title - you always get the album
below.
If you press on the triangle (to the right on this screen) - you get the
correct album.

It is working fine in the non-preview version 1.37.

In general, the track-back button will only appear if it's a valid
choice, and same for thumbs up/thumbs down. At first blush, I'd guess
you're using Pandora, last.fm or some other service that allows you to
love/ban tracks or something like that but doesn't allow playlist
navigation. Each of these services is slightly different though, so
provide more details and we'll take it from there.

Most likely that is the issue -- you won't even see the custom color set
on Android 2.1.  I see lots of people using custom Android 2.2 ROMs on
Nook Simple Touch though. Are you simply using a stock ROM that's been
rooted then?

Hi Jon, it isn't deliberate in that it's a feature we left out because
we don't believe people should have alarms, it's deliberate in that it

I'll have to think about that one. It's too bad that the ROM for the
e-ink devices can't disable animations for some of the core components
on its own, if they won't work properly

Something is still wrong. When I try to access the Download Preferences
I get a black screen and the app hangs. The only option after a minute
or so is to force close it.

Hi DB122.
I kept my pie-hole shut all holiday season
;-)

Anything on the horizon wrt the unvisible text issue (for b&w e-ink
displays)?

I tried already changing to various other color-themes (via ADW
launcher) w/o succsess. The text in the pop-up boxes never shows up
(Also, I do not have that issue on any other App).

Other than that: Keep up the great work!
Everytime I start Squeezecommander with it's somewhat un-intuitive
menues I wish Orange Squeeze would be ready for me.
Cheers, Heiner

P.S. Other than that, I noticed that when moving form screen to screen
(i.e. search to players) the new screen sometimes 'hangs' i.e. new menue
only shows partly and is not centered. Any change in a future update to
have an option to enable / disable screen animations? That would also
help on the more static e-ink displays.
(However, I do understand, that users running Orange-Squeeze on e-ink

Hi there,

I've just entered the world of Orange Squeeze having downloaded it for
my Xmas Nexus 7 - and am initially very impressed.  However, I can't
seem to find out how to set the alarm on my Radio (important
functionality for me whilst sitting on the sofa) - I note from the
previous OS v1 thread that this may be deliberate... is this the case? 
Or if not where should I be looking?

(I am a great fan of the increased functionality available over
SqueezeCommander in terms of library re-scanning, and so can't see why
this would be absent :))

Sorry if this has been covered before, but the last thread is _very_
long ...

Argh! That download location preference definition didn't get migrated
over to the new download preferences. It's all in there, but you have no

Ratings support is new in 1.3, simply because of improvements to the

Nothing new in 1.3.4 that I'm aware of though.

While browsing, use the context/action menu (the triangle thing) and
look for a "Download" menu item at the bottom of the list. We've tried
to support detection of tracks within most hierarchies that can contain
local tracks. Download preferences are available from the screen that
lists all of the downloadable tracks that are discovered.

I agree. It's great, perfect even, in portrait mode on a Nexus 7, but
landscape mode or any view on a 10 inch tablet leaves a tiny bit to be
desired. Still, the layouts are miles better than the official app and
Squeeze Commander combined, so I'm definitely not complaining. E.g. the
now playing screen is nice even in landscape, and that's not the case at
all with the other two. Also, I primarily use my Nexus 7 in portrait
view anyway.

OK, I've pushed a fix out to the preview channel to fix this. There are
actually a lot of under-the-cover changes, so it needs testing and I'm

Sure, that's not exactly how it's supposed to work but I see the
problem. For now, disabling the squeezeplayer autostart will stop that
behavior. Simply changing the on call received setting won't be enough.

Relating to the all-white dialog issue on Android 2.2 and e-ink devices,
the latest preview (just released now) makes an attempt to color the
dialog in more stark contrast (departing from the Android 2.2 defaults),
which I hope will resolve this issue. Please post your experiences.

Sorry, I mixed "OS" up with "Operating System". No OrangeSqueeze is not
even on the top-list of power consumers, even Google Maps is more
prominent although that App has done nothing but crashing on startup
since I installed the update
So your connection is probably down, indeed.

Thanks.

My guess is that there's only a connection for SP, separate from OS. If
I remember correctly, when I fixed the bug that was leaving the
connection up for much longer, OS was taking ~60% of the power drain for
your situation, so based on those numbers I'm assuming that the OS
connection was dropped correctly. The logs should contain enough
information to confirm this.

OK, good, thanks Pippin. I'm going to release a new preview sometime
today, and I will add a bit of temporary logging to it that won't
require you to enable 'verbose logging' to see. I'm hoping it will tell
us which of the following is happening:

1) OS is not shutting itself down properly and keeping the connection
active (unlikely, since the network connection would show a significant
power draw in your situation).
2) OS is shutting itself down, but still somehow sending pings to
SqueezePlayer even though the rest of the service is shut down (I've
audited this section of code and don't see it myself, but I can't rule
it out 100%)
3) SqueezePlayer is keeping itself active through some other mechanism

Once you get the update, just use your device as normal and use the
submit logs to send a log to me when you wake up and notice that
SqueezePlayer stayed awake too long. We will hope that the log data
won't roll over -- there is a limit to how much Android keeps.

Yes. Actually all of what you write would be the behavior I would expect

Unfortunately, it's not what I've been seeing recently when I had
SqueezePlayer running all night even though I didn't touch my Nexus and
it was not connected to external power.
It doesn't happen all of the time (around 1 out of 3 times I open
OrangeSqueeze, I would say), but often enough to be my primary source of
power drain on my Nexus.

I don't know whether this is caused by OS or SP, can I do anything to
help diagnose.

Oh, and I did enable that option to start SP with OS.

So for 1.3.x, I would expect that Orange Squeeze would keep the local
SqueezePlayer active for as long as Orange Squeeze has a connection to
the server. This means that if you are using widgets, any time your
screen is on your device will maintain a connection to your server and
also keep your local SqueezePlayer running. If you turn your screen off
or it times out and turns off automatically, Orange Squeeze will time
its server connection out to save power, and it will also cease to keep
SqueezePlayer alive. SqueezePlayer can then time out according to its
own policies then.

As discussed earlier, killing Orange Squeeze (e.g. its services) will
cause this behavior to stop -- at least temporarily. However, because
the Orange Squeeze power management service is sticky, it may be
restarted by the system automatically. The reason for this is that if
your device is under load or memory constraints, then even the services
that you want running may be killed by the system. This is a good thing,
because it lets you play games or do things that consume all of the
device resources and then sticky services will be restarted at the first
opportunity so that your widgets and such will start working again
automatically. While the power management service will be restarted
automatically, I want to reiterate that this service is very lightweight
and is nothing like a server connection at all.

Note that for 1.3.x, every time a connection is established, the local
SqueezePlayer instance will also be started if that is enabled in the
Orange Squeeze preferences. Right now this happens for every reconnect,
including reconnects for the lock screen widget, etc. I'll have to think
about how to improve this behavior, because it probably isn't necessary
in a few limited scenarios (widgets active for different players).
However, when the user opens up the UI again we would want the player
started up automatically, I suppose.

No, I've not seen that, but it's also not really what I want. I don't
_want_ to have to go to the App and stop the player manually when I stop
playing. That's too much effort, especially since even the lock screen
widget seems to wake it up, I would have to go into the App every time I
somehow activated the lock screen widget, that can't be.

Ah. I did have it on battery when I noticed it, but it might have been
charging when it was used the last time. Might it not notice the
charging state change later

You do have the tablets on battery all the time? The timeout is only
enabled when on batteries.

Re: [slim] ANN: Orange Squeeze 1.3.0 released!

2012-12-16 Thread pippin

I'm still occasionally seeing SqueezePlayer staying active forever in
the background even if it's not playing. I'm using the preview
(obviously have the live version, too, but my widgets are generated
using the preview so I assume that's what's running).

SqueezePlayer the last time had a power state of "on", I then went into
the App and turned it off and 15 min later it was gone, don't know which
part (opening the App or powering off the player) did the trick.

It's still unreliable behavior overall, I'm seeing this in about one of
4 uses. Android 4.2.1 on Nexus 7.

Re: [slim] ANN: Orange Squeeze 1.3.0 released!

2012-12-14 Thread tbessie

db122 - Thanks for all the info!  I won't worry about the background
processes, and will just take your word for it.  You know, old
engineer's habit, suspicion of unknown processes. :-)

As for the connection issues - yeah, I've notice that my Galaxy Nexus
has been having WiFi connectivity issues; they seemed to have gotten
worse when I upgraded to Jelly Bean (and I've seen complaints about this
specific issue online).  I also upgraded my router's firmware around the
same time, so I didn't want to pin it on the phone only, but if others
have had WiFi problems with this device (dropouts when I'm just around
the corner from the router, for example), then that seems a likely
culprit.

I'll keep using Orange Squeeze and see if this keeps happening,
especially when I'm right next to the router.  If it does keep
happening, I'll turn on the log and send it to you.

Thanks again for your voluminous and helpful replies! :-)

- Tim

Ah...

I knew it must be there somewhere!

I have turned on the context sensitive tips until I get used to it.
Love the interface by the way, very intelligent use of the space in

This has been a problem in the past, but I haven't seen it lately. What
server version are you running? FWIW, I start and stop the app dozens of
times per day and don't see it. It doesn't improve your experience --
sorry. :-)

One thing about the Galaxy Nexus is that the Wifi performance/range is
horrible. I had to install a repeater so that I could use the device
reliably in my office, and my Macbook Pro has a very high signal.

It could be that Orange Squeeze is less tolerant of requests that go
unanswered or are "lost" than Squeeze Commander, or it could be a race
condition that simply doesn't expose itself in my testing. 

The more details I can get about your situation, the better. Enable
"Verbose Logging" in advanced preferences, and when you get a timeout
situation to occur, go back to preferences and hit "submit logs". Fill
in your email address or some other identifier (can just be tbessie) so
that I can associate the requests to you.

First off, don't assume that a service running means that there is
anything happening or power drain from the process. It doesn't.

One service runs all the time: the power management service. It simply
receives notifications when the screen turns on and off, wifi comes up
and down, etc. There are no active running threads or connections
associated with this service and it will not take any cpu or draw any
power. There is no way to disable this although you could try
experimenting with task killers, etc. to kill it if you like. It won't
accomplish anything, but do what you like. It will break some of the app
behavior if this service is not running (specifically, power saving
features).

There is a second service and that maintains a connection to the server.
You absolutely need this if you use the widgets at all. If you don't use
the widgets and are OK with the connection being dropped every time
Orange Squeeze moves to the background (any task comes in front of it)
then you can set the connection timeout in the preferences to a very low
value. The default will have the service shut itself down after a minute
or two of the app being in the background (and no widgets).

My advice: before you spent too much time worrying about it, check your
device power management screen to see if the app is actually taking any
significant power. If it's not taking power, then it's also not slowing
your device down because cpu usage = power drain. You can only do these
tests if the device is running off battery, by the way.

After installing Orange Squeeze, I see it has several processes/services

to NOT have these running if the app is not running in the foreground? I
hate it when apps run all the time like that.

Re: [slim] ANN: Orange Squeeze 1.3.0 released!

2012-12-14 Thread tbessie

Hi there...

So I just installed Orange Squeeze 1.3.1 on my Galaxy Nexus (Android
4.2.1).

Very often (though not every time), when I tried to connect to
mysqueezebox.com or my own LMS server, Orange Squeeze tries to connect,
and then says "Timeout waiting for server connection to complete".

Then, other times, it connects.

Is this a known issue?  It is rather frustrating.  Squeeze Commander has
never had any problems connecting in my home environment like this.

BTW: you can get that menu in the official App, too. The same way as in
OrangeSqueeze. And indeed also in SqueezeCommander. And on the
Squeezebox Touch :) And in iPeng (that's where it originates from, I
believe).

I am probably being totally dense and missing the blindingly obvious,
but I cannot find a button for the "+" context menu anywhere?  

This is available on the browser interface, the hardware Controller and
Squeeze Commander but I cannot find it on Orange Squeeze.  It is a
notable absentee on the official app and it is the only reason why,
despite its horribly un-intuitive user interface, that I continue to use
Squeeze Commander.
