What system/processor do you have ? The error has been seen before and I suggested that it was processor related. If that is the case then you may have to go back to an earlier version of mplayer. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23609 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
[SlimDevices: Plugins] Help with AlienBBC please
Firstly thank you for taking the time to read this post and for any help you can provide . I have tried to read through as many threads as possible but am yet to resolve my issue. I am no computer expert in any shape or form and have to confess some of the posts are over my head . Anyhow I initially tried to install AlienBBC manually following the steps provided but to no avail . then I noticed the automatic setup , which I duly ran . Anyhow everything is installed but no stations appear on Slimserver nor does Alien appear on the plugins I have gone into the slimserver file and looked in Plugins and Alien is there , I have run the Test mplayer.bat and it works fine - why cannot I get it on slimserver ? I am baffled . As I said I really don't know much about computers . When i run a command it disappears of the creen so quickly I cannot read it - how can I slow this down in order to see if there are any errors I would be really grateful to anyone who can help me with this - I am in Japan and can't what to listen to the BBC - Thanks -- Tokyosi Tokyosi's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5171 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23611 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Re: Announce: New WeatherTime Screensaver adds graphical forecasts
Mortod, If you want "DD MMM", this is how you do it: Edit /Plugins/WeatherTime/Plugin.pm I have version 1.6 (using SS 6.2.2) so your line numbers may not match exactly but the code still should (or should it?) be the same... At line 2073, change '%d.%m.' => 'DD.MM.' to '%d.%m.' => 'DD.MM.', (append a comma) Add a new line right after: '%d %b' => 'DD MMM' The %d is for the day number and %b is for the abbreviated month name. Save the file and then restart the slimserver. You will now have a new date option (at the top) wich will be "DD MMM", this will display what you want. For other formatting options, look here: http://tinyurl.com/kdqwf If this is too adventurous for you, then you can always wait for Martin's next update. Daniel P.S. It's very possible that versions 1.6.x may not work like this, I have no idea but it does work for version 1.6 -- dborn dborn's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=181 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21989 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

Yes this is expected behaviour. You can change it yourself if you're willing to make the change. I think Martin is not going to release new versions for the next few days... ;) Go to /Plugins/WeatherTime/Plugin.pm and comment out line 2469 (or around there): Change $gxline1 = ""; to #$gxline1 = ""; That's it.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] any LastFM navigation tricks?
I think the LastFM and scrobbler plugins are great: radio that plays the music I like, with a skip-this-song control for when they guess wrong. But getting to that "skip" control usually takes more clicks on the remote than I'd like. I know I can re-arrange the menus, but are there any other ideas for getting quickly from "Now Playing" to the "Skip" command under Internet Radio > LastFM?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Re: Alien BBC live feeds audio dropout
HI there, Wonder if anyone has any ideas on this... I have win2003 server, and have just updated to Slimserver 6.2.2. Installed AlienBBC 1.02a too using the all in one installer. Everything worked great on install. BUT on playing BBC streams they will play for anything up to 2/3 minutes then just hang up the Slimserver. The Squeezebox becomes unresponsive, just says for eg Connecting to: Radio1. Cannot chnage menu options. The win2k3 server has 100% CPU utilisation, and the way to fix is to restart the Slimserver. Then all is fine again... until I try another Alien stream. All other internet radio working fine..

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Play short clips on another SB: "Dinner time!"
Looking for a plugin that can play a short audio clip on a Squeezebox, and then go back to its playlist. I would control this using the remote on another SB. The purpose is to inform some other member on the family of something important issue. You could have clips with pre-recorded voice messages: "Telephone call", "Dinner time", "TURN DOWN THE VOLUME!!!" - I think you get the idea... I currently have 3x SB2/3 in the house, and this will not stop until I have a device in almost each room. My son spends most of his free time in his room with "music" streaming out loud from his SB2, while Daddy (thats me) is sitting in the kitchen listening even louder, so family communication is sometimes difficult... I recall I saw a discussion regarding a plugin similar to this a while ago (a year ago?), but cannot find it now. The function is much like a intercom, but with fixed messages. Any help in this would be highly appreciated. Don't mind coding some stuff on my own, but the threshold starting from scratch is too high... -- gonk Does this unit has a bad motivator? gonk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1271 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23592 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

Currently clicking an item in the players menu will change the first player listed in the preferences UI. It should also set the radio control to this first player, but if it isnt, then that could be the problem ? Does the text change when you re-open the preferences dialog after switching players ? In the preferences, I see a radio button group with player 1 and player 2 mac address configuration strings. No option for configuring additional players. Underneath that, I see a list of my players, but every time I reopen the preferences window, it duplicates the three players in the list. ie. open the preferences dialog 5 times and I have 15 player names in the list. The list in the preferences window is more of a debugging aid than anything else. As you spotted, it currently doesnt clear old items when it re-populates, so it grows.

Selecting an artist from the list I then get the actual albums. Yes, I've had a few requests for this.. What I was thinking of trying was a drop-down in the library window which listed all the genres.

The following command work in Linux. mplayer -cache 128 rtsp://rmlivev8.bbc.net.uk/farm/*/ev7/live24/radio1/live/r1_dsat_g2.ra Also in Linux if Softsqueeze is open, mplayer will not produce sound - on Linux Java seems to hog the sound drivers and refuses any other app even if nothing is being played.
