:-( Doesn't work like that here...
Got a message such as you already got the latest version.
Still shows pre7 and BBC hangs at 4'15.

Tried removing -bandwith 10, but no success.

I would prefer to manage updates through Ubuntu Synaptic manager,

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] AlienBBC Live Streaming Stops

2007-02-11 Thread bpa

Identify your problem first - the following problems are unrelated 

1. Live BBC streams doesn't play or stops after a short time - you need
1.0pre8 or later.  The bandwidth fix is nothing to do with this.

2. Listen Again streams only which usually stop sometime between 2
and 4 mins.  This is caused by bandwidth and 99.999% of the time only
in  Windows - I have only see one case of a Linux (FC5) with this
problem.


If you have the stoppping problem with live streams you need 1.0pre8 or
later - there is no other solution.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Last.fm plugin ?

2007-02-11 Thread James

Yes, user tag station should be
usertags/user/tag

I think only personal tag radio of subscribers is available.
ie. even if you're not a subscriber you can listen to someone who is!

BTW the station names are exactly the same as listed on LastFM's
website, just with the prefix http://www.last.fm://listen removed.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] MusicIP SS - start order

2007-02-11 Thread Diana

Several threads indicate that, under WinXP, the MIP API has to be
running when SS starts for SS to mark tracks as mixable correctly. 
This was a problem for me when I had the SS service set to automatic
start up - it was always running before MIP started, and never linked
to MIP properly.  I resorted to starting SS manually after I'd fired
MIP up.

Others may have found clever ways round this, but I've just discovered
an utterly obvious way of getting this to work (I think!!).  I've put a
link to MIP in the Windows Startup folder (in Start / All Programs); and
I've set SS to 'Automatically run at log in' (settable from the tray
icon when SS is stopped).

This seems mysteriously to fire everything up automatically in the
right sequence when I start the PC.  

(In contrast, setting SS to 'run at startup' with the login details
provided to the SS Service in the service properties does *not* work. 
It's almost as if you have to trick the system into allowing enough
time for MIP to start first - but that may just be silly superstition,
rather than sound computer science!)

As I say, this may be standard practice that I've just not picked up. 
Any thoughts about why it works (at least at the moment!!!)?

I use a registry file which sets the dependonservice of Slimserver to
require MusicIP.  Everything then always comes up in the correct order.


Each time there is a new release of SS, I just run the reg file at the
end of the install and it sets everything up again to run in the
correct order.

Unzip it and you will get a .reg file.  Doubleclick it and select yes
to add it into registry.

Then go into your services and look at the properties of the slimserver
service, on the dependencies tab you will now see MusicIP Server.

Each time you reboot, MusicIP will now come up before the Slimserver
service.  

Though you will need to undo the shortcuts etc that you created in the
startup folder etc.

(Note: All three services; MusicIP Server, Slimserver and
SlimserverMySQL should be set to AUTOMATIC.)

Also I'm not sure about 6.3 since I havent used it in a long time, but
should be ok with that version.

I made a sample for you which should be close to what you want, you can
download it from the Custom Browse interface by.
1. Select Edit menus
2. Select Create new menu
3. Select Download more menus
4. In the Requested menus section select Artist Years

There is a bug currently in Custom Browse that don't show the options
directly after downloading a menu, so when you have selected the menu
just select Save and then choose to edit the menus and select the

cparker  Thanks for so generously sharing your .reg file.  I tried
your very neat idea, but realised that it needs (I think!) MusicIP
running as a service ('headless').  I perhaps wasn't clear enough in my
original post - I'm just running the MIP GUI;  so I need to start that
as an application before SS starts.  Hence the method of putting a
shortcut to it in All Programs / Startup.

Am I right in thinking you run MIP as a headless service?

What the two has in common is the goal of being able to make use of

headroom.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] AlienBBC and Program description

2007-02-11 Thread bpa

As a experiment to see if this is what people want/expect, I have
modified two AlienBBC files to get more information on the program
entries from the BBC website and include them on the Slimserver web
page and SB display. 

Replacing The AlienBBCAodMenu file results on a little more information
in the program listing so instead of Afternoon Reading you now get
Afternoon Reading - either a short story or an abridged book.

Replacing The AlienPlayableAodItem file results in more details on a
program once it has been selected to play or added to a playlist.

General install instruction for the attached zip files

1. Stop slimserver and save the relevant file in case you want to
revert
2. Down load and unzip the file into a temporary area.
3. Replace the relevant file in Plugins/Alien  
4. Restart Slimserver


This is not production code, I have only done basic tests so feedback
would be useful to know whether to put more effort to include in the
AlienBBC Plugin.

The changes could be enabled/disabled in settings so that a user could
choose whether to have short or long descriptions.

Thanks for your thoughts on this.  Curiouser and curiouser!  I guess
opening the plugins page would be equivalent to forcing a refresh
(unless - did you change any settings?).  

If I notice SS seems not to be linked to MIP at first, I'll try a hard
refresh (CTRL+f5) to check whether the -slim -slimappend options have
actually forced the link in the background before the SS web GUI has

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Server Power Control Plugin, for 6.5.1 on Win32

2007-02-11 Thread tenwiseman

My Slimdevices Slimserver runs on a old power hungry Pentium III 800 MHz
which I prefer not to left running when I’m not using it. Shutting the
thing down was either a trip into the garage, or a terminal server
remote login via another networked computer (hopefully still running)
to log it off!

I have thus written a plugin to avoid this messing about. I know there
are similar plugins about based on running batch files, or automated
from inactivity timeouts - but I wanted something a little bit more
direct :-)

The Slimserver 6.5.1 code is for Windows machines and force closes
other applications except Slimserver which is (hopefully) shutdown
correctly. The Linux / Mac talented among you may suggest changes for
those platforms.

Once installed, you will find a “Server Power Control” entry in the
Squeezebox unit’s displayed plugins list. Clicking right, you have the
choice of shutting down or restarting the server. Clicking right from
here will do the selected action in 3 seconds (which also blanks the
display) unless you navigate back. If a track is playing, it will
remain playing from the players buffer - no big issue.

The file ‘PowerCtrl.pm’ should be placed in Slimserver’s plugin
directory, and Slimserver restarted.

Enjoy :-)

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: XMRadio v1.1.1 updated for SS 6.5

2007-02-11 Thread Ron Olsen

In SlimServer-Server Settings-File Types-File Format Conversion
Setup, do you have the box checked for Windows Media - Windows Media
(built in) ?

XM Radio Online is a Windows Media (.wma) stream. You can play it using
the built-in wma decoder on the SB, which will be done if you have the
above box checked.

If you don't have the above box checked, then you will need mplayer to
decode the wma stream on the host.  Mplayer is part of the AlienBBC
plugin, which should be installed for this approach to work.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] announcing SaverSwitcher: plugin that cycles through screensavers

2007-02-11 Thread peterw

dazbarber;179401 Wrote: 
 I've had big problems with the latest version.  I found that the display
 sometimes garbled when switching from analogue VU to Now Playing
 (screensaver during playing) and it was very difficult to disable the
 switching screensaver (even though it was selected only for
 'screensaver while playing' at one point, it still affected
 'screensaver while stopped'.

I ran into the garbled display problem today. I believe it was due to
network problems. I was listening to an HTTP stream just fine in the
kitchen when my wife started using the microwave, knocking out my WiFi
connection. Lo and behold, I saw a scrambled display -- a mix of
Analogue VU and Now Playing. When the microwave finished, the SB
rebuffered the stream and things normalized.

When Stopped -- I believe 1.7 may resolve that problem (1.7 recognizes
when the music has stopped playing) -- but are you using None for the
When Stopped screensaver? The None screensaver is a tricky thing. It's
not really a screensaver, but a special case that means no screensaver
makes any update to the client display. With 1.6, SaverSwitcher
wouldn't notice when the music stopped, and would keep switching
screensavers on the quiet client if the client's When Stopped
screensaver is None. 1.7 is a little bit better, but if When Stopped
is set to None, you'll see the last When Playing saver after the music
stops. I don't know how easy it would be to make the client switch to
displaying the screen that was up before When Playing kicked in, I
haven't had time to investigate that.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Astronomy Information Plugin - useful to amateur astronomers

2007-02-11 Thread mash

I am trying to install the plugin on a windows platform:

SlimServer Version: 6.5.1 - 11206 - Windows Server 2003 - EN - cp1252
Perl Version: 5.8.8 MSWin32-x86-multi-thread

I am getting the following error message:

2007-02-11 19:24:52.8529 Requiring Plugins::Astroinfo::Plugin plugin.
2007-02-11 19:24:52.9083 Can't load Plugins::Astroinfo::Plugin for
Plugins menu:
Undefined subroutine Plugins::Astroinfo::Plugin::getDisplayName
called at C:/Program
Files/SlimServer/server/Slim/Utils/PluginManager.pm line 257, DATA
line
1.

Are there any pre-requisites I am not aware of?

Thanks for any help

No, there aren't any prerequisites.
I'm assuming this is the first time you're trying the plugin.
So, try grabbing the previous version of the plugin:
http://www.jesslex.com/plugins/V1.2_AstroInfo.zip

And, let me know if that works.
If that doesn't work, try grabbing V1.1_AstroInfo.zip at the same
address and let me know if that works.

In the meantime I'm going to try a couple of things at my end and see
if I can find the cause of the problem.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] MusicIP SS - start order

Nope... didn't change any settings. Just switched to the plugins page
and then back to the browse pages and it did the trick.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Astronomy Information Plugin - useful to amateur astronomers

2007-02-11 Thread Mitch G

OK. I just loaded Slim 6.5.1 (which includes Perl 5.8.8) and downloaded
the plugin from the website and things are working fine. 

The only time I've seen the error you mention is when there's some
syntax error in the plugin that is not more gracefully detected.
So, right now my only guess is that there was a glitch when
downloading/extracting the plugin that messed up something.

If any of the older plugins worked, then try redownloading the latest
version again and see if that works.

Let me know what comes of this.

Thanks for the quick response Mitch.

Problem solved. The directory is suposed to be named 'AstroInfo'. I
created a directory called 'Astroinfo' (case sensitive according to the
comments in the code). Might help to zip it up including the 'AstroInfo'
folder.

Thanks again

Well, you caught me. 
I'm embarrassed to admit that I can't figure out how to do that - zip
it with the folder name. Whenever I do try to include the path, it zips
up the entire chain of directories from C:\Program Files ... on down.
