[SlimDevices: Plugins] Moose 0.61 - only very few covers are shown
Hello! just like squeezebox/slimserver I am very thrilled by Moose. This is the thing I have been waiting for. The only problem I have is that covers are not shown in cover browser: Only after double clicking an album (shown by the default album icon) it is (played an) fetched from the Internet and displayed. From now on this cover is show correctly in the cover browser. 1. (How) can I fetch all covers at once? 2. (How) can I make moose store fetched covers in the directory structure to enable slimserver to access them?

Given that the screen is more horizontal a fireplace screensaver would probably work better. For quick refreshes this would probably have to be supported in the firmware.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Alien BBC default station list and adding to favourites
Thanks for the great explanation bpa. It looks like there may still seems a reasonble amount of work to do in SC7. I've just posted what now appears to be a related subject about the way favourites work. My vote (as always) is for drag and drop menu ordering! Not being able to move items up and down levels is definitely a bad thing for me with respect to AlienBBC though. I do think there should definitely be some way of visually differentiating between an menu item which takes you to a sub menu and one which plays a station without having to put your cursor over it to see if the play/add/add to favourites icons appear. I can't find any way in the AlienBBC settings to move items up and down the menu listing. The only way I can find to do it is to delete all the items and then add them back in the required order one by one. I'll check out the search facilkty. It sounds as though ti will be really useful... especaily for the rather convoluted way the BBC order their programs. I'd have though by now that they would be offering a simple XML file for use with devices like SlimCenter. I'd better get on with Christmas now. Have a good one!.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Alien BBC default station list and adding to favourites
To get Feedback like this is one of the reason for a beta release. The AlienBBC was changed to the opml based menu as used in the rest of SC - this greatly simplified the AlienBBC code but some compromises such as loss of "headers". Also any changes to menu display would have to be made in SC and not in AlienBBC. Neil has noted some of these formatting issues and I think they will be addressed but they need changes in SC and so need discussion & agreement. When the initial conversion to new opml format was made, all addon were enabled. If you don't want an entry - delete unwanted using the AlienBBC settings - "edit Menu". I think something better is needed but up to now there have been no comments. The menu are still a screen scrape but IIRC the ordering is mainly controlled by the entries in the default.opml and the addons opml files. After initial startup all menu are in alienbbc.opml - you can reorder using AlienBBC Setting "Edit Menu" or just a text editor on the file. Another difference from 6.5. is that you cannot move menu items up a level. I think this is because the editing code is shared with SC. Again I think it is something that needs to be looked into but SC 7.0 UI was changing all the time - it was better to wait until it settled down especially as there are still bugs in the critical code (try clicking on the breadcrumb trail while edit the menu). -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41351 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
[SlimDevices: Plugins] Alien BBC default station list and adding to favourites
Does the list of Alien BBC stations in the latest CS7 beta work correctly? I though I might have messed mine up but I've reinstalled and used the Reset to Defaults facility but the station menu still seems a bit odd. For instance the BBC Radio item is last in the menu. Above this item this there are loads of none BBC stations listed including Italian, Spanish and German stations. The BBC Listen Again item is buried within the BBC Radio submenu. There is an item called ""BBC What On Radio" in the main menu. Is there a title a typo? If this is how it is, I'd like to be able to edit the menus and sub menus myself. However, using the web page interface I can just about edit indivudual entries but I can't seem to move them up or down the menu item listings. I remember when AlienBBC was first produced the menu was arrived at via a screen scrape of the BBC web page. Is this still the case or is it possible for me to directly edit a text file to arrange the menus exactly as I'd like? It seems impossible to use the current menu edit function to arrange them sensibll and using it sometimes gets unexpected results. I do realise I am using a beta version! :-) Thanks MC -- ModelCitizen It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.
