If I understand you correctly you have: - A working backup two weeks old with 9000 rated tracks - A working backup recent backup with 5000 rated tracks If you restore the 5000 ratings backup file it should restore all those 5000 but leave the rest as they are. There will be no check against time stamp for those 5000, so they will be overwritten with the information in the backup file. The extra 4000 ratings you currently have in the database should remain as they are. The restore operation doesn't empty the database, it just updates the ratings listen in the file. The only way to get a timestamp check is to go through the iTunes integration. But I'm not sure you want to mess with that, because I really don't know how iTunes is going to react in all these situations. So if you just miss the last 2 weeks of play/rating history I would leave it as it is unless the above mentioned restore of the 5000 is a working solution. By the way, do you have any idea why you lost ratings in the upgrade ? Is there something I could do on my side to avoid that others get the same problem ? -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39026 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: SqueezeCenter 7.0 beta versions of my plugins
Somehow in my recent migration to SC7, I managed to mess up some of my ratings (total # rated tracks dropped from around 9,000 to 5,000). Also, I hadn't changed the ownership of the directory for backups so the nightly Trackstat backup had failed for the last two weeks. The good news, is that importing my last backup has recovered all but the last couple of weeks of rating (and play stats). Before I imported the last backup, I saved the stats as they were. Is there any way to do some kind of merge of the two to update play stats and add any ratings added in the last two weeks (similar to the "smart" import/export of iTunes ratings)?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Squeezesoft 3.5 and SqueezeCenter 7.0, major probs :-(
Almost every day without fail I will open squeezecenter and it will say 'player not found'. I check my player (which is running softsqueeze 3.5) and it's open and running. I have to quit softsqueeze and restart it for it to communicate again with squeezecenter. I've tried the headless version but get the same issue, I really don't know what the problem is, my network connection is fine and doesn't seem to be a TCP/IP issue. Is this a problem with softsqueeze 3.5? -- markwm markwm's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12366 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43039 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] AlienBBC R2 Replay mono?
That means mplayer is not on your path. You will need to provide the full path for mplayer. However if it works OK with softsqueeze then the problem is a settings as AlienBBC will be sending a Flac or MP3 stream to SB. What is the AlienBBC stream sent as to Softqueeze and to SB (probabluy either Flac or MP3) ? Are they the same ? If they are different then check the AlienBBC conf file entries. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43016 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

The following command, run from Terminal, should play the program back via the Mac speakers. This assume mplayer is on the path. The "-v" is optional but it displays more messages.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] AlienBBC R2 Replay mono?
Hello again bpa and thanks for replying. I think I haven't explained properly. Via Slimserver and AlienBBC Replay, I had one channel (the non-Lennon) mono'd, in other words in both speakers. When I listened to the same thing via the BBC website: perfectly OK stereo. And as it seems you also got proper stereo via AlienBBC, I think my settings must have come adrift somewhere. -- whitman whitman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9053 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43016 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

I checked the show and it plays "Mr. Kite" like the alum recording where John Lennon is only on one channel but there is audio on both channels.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Lyrics Plugin: SB3 vs SC7
I have been using the lyrics plugin for a few months now and like it. There is a feature that is available through the SB3's remote that does not seem to be available in SC7. When using the remote to display lyrics, the lyrics that are displayed are sometimes for the wrong song. This can often be corrected because by pressing the "+" key, the plugin somehow asks the lyrdb website to try to find a better match for lyrics. This usually works pretty well. I was wondering if this fuctionality can be built into the SC7 interface. Is this something that would be up to lsmithso (the plugin's developer) to address, or is it a matter for the SqueezeCenter developers to tackle if they so choose? -- btcompute btcompute's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10847 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43022 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Error in ExecuteScript
Sorry, was on vacation last week, but i've now tried your suggestions, kdf. I ran slimserver.pl from a terminal session, and checked the access time of the script that should be being run (i.e. the one that executescript logging says it is running on open file). The script just echos a message to stdout. No message is displayed. I used stat to check the last access time of the script file, and the access time is not updated by executescript. If i run the script from the command line the access time is updated. It would seem that for some reason executescript is not executing the file. I double checked the permissions, and the script file is an a directory with permissions rwx for all users, and the script file has the same permissions. Typing 'ps -j' indicates that the slimserver perl process is running under my user account (the same one i can use to successfully run the script manually). -- Creeky Creeky's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9566 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41941 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

[SlimDevices: Plugins] AlienBBC R2 Replay mono?
I was listening to Radcliffe & Maconie on AlienBBC Radio 2 Replay and noticed I had a John Lennon-less 'Benefit Of Mr Kite'. After some fiddling around I discovered that the extreme stereo separation of this Beatles track had highlighted that Alien BBC R2 Replay was giving me one stereo channel, mono'd. I tried it direct on my Mac from the BBC website and Replay was in glorious stereo (with John back at the mic). Is this a known fault on AlienBBC, or have I somehow mangled my settings? -- whitman whitman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9053 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43016 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
