[SlimDevices: Plugins] Re: Last.FM plugin

2005-10-21 Thread ceejay

Oops!  Small problem here with the web page refresh... I loaded up the
new version, after a couple of false starts got it running, then left
it to see how it would get on.  This was running in Softsqueeze, with
the LastFM web page active.

When I came back the player had stopped, and the web page had got
itself into an infinite refresh loop, eg:

2005-10-21 09:12:35.5551 LastFM: web page refresh: -2589
2005-10-21 09:12:36.1984 LastFM: web page refresh: -2590
2005-10-21 09:12:36.9368 LastFM: web page refresh: -2590
2005-10-21 09:12:37.4824 LastFM: web page refresh: -2591
2005-10-21 09:12:38.0708 LastFM: web page refresh: -2592
2005-10-21 09:12:38.8558 LastFM: web page refresh: -2592
2005-10-21 09:12:39.4777 LastFM: web page refresh: -2593

I couldn't see what had started all this in the log file, as it had
filled up and scrolled the interesting stuff off the top of the file! 
I guess you may need a bit more logic around 

$params->{refresh} = ($players{$macaddress}->remaining - $elapsed +
5);

Ceejay

Ah. That was a bit optimistic wasn't it?

If you're happy editing the code try adding the 2nd line:

$params->{refresh} = ($players{$macaddress}->remaining - $elapsed + 5);
$params->{refresh} = $lastfm_timeout if ($params->{refresh} <= 0);

2005-10-21 Thread David Brittain

Hi

This is the same for me. Every morning on Radio 4 today at some point it 
goes garbled like the unpatched player and never recovers. Something 
must have changed since the first patch, because as I say - I never 
heard garbling in weeks of usage with the original patch.

When it didn't recover this morning - was the garbling

b. was it a burst of audio followed by silence and then more audio.

c. something else - describe if possible.



Just like the unpatched player - sounded like 2 streams slightly out of
sync.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Re: AlienBBC: mplayer release to fix garbled output

2005-10-21 Thread bpa

I run tests on standalone Mplayer and R4 has been strange over the past
2 days with very jerky traffic but very few packets lost - this could
be a local problem or a change in server config.

I did notice that R4 has changed their URL sometime since Sunday. This
may signify a change in server but their encoders/server rev no.s have
not changed. So I am wary of basing changes on problems solely
experienced with R4.

That said, there is clearly still a issue with the patch.  There are
arbitrary "safety" margins in the code which I don't like and may be
the cause.

Cool! Thanks for the info kdf. I have another question: regarding the
formatting of the xxx.map text files; would it be possible to use an
alternative character for "line break" Currently in Windows Notepad
these breaks appear as an unknown character, which makes parsing
through the file rather difficult. Or, alternatively, is there another
text editor you could recommend that parses this character correctly?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Backstage.bbc.co.uk feed for AlienBBC?

2005-10-21 Thread adhawkins

Hi,

Have the authors of AlienBBC been made aware of the BBCs 'Backstage'
project? (http://backstage.bbc.co.uk/). It appears to be an attempt to
make a lot of the BBCs content available for external use.

They have a mailing list, and relatively recently someone asked if
there was any chance of having (say) an XML feed of all of the 'listen
again' and live radio feeds. I seem to remember a discussion on here
saying that AlienBBC effectively parses the HTML generated from the BBC
site in order to determine the available feeds. If an XML feed were made
available, presumably this would be a much better way of doing it?

Any comments?

Andy

What commands could we use in custom.map file then.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Re: AlienBBC: mplayer release to fix garbled output

2005-10-21 Thread bpa

I was  wrong in the previous post.

The BBC have changed the R4 live server that I access from :
Helix Server Version 9.0.7.1371 (linux-2.2-libc6-i586-server)
it used to be 
Helix Server Version 9.0.8.1472 (sunos-5.8-sparc-server) 
On further investigation since this morning all the live stations moved
to this 9.0.7 version although still on sparc.  

I wonder why the BBC have gone back a version of software ?  I hope
this won't change the behaviour of live streams vis-a-vis Mplayer.
