[SlimDevices: Plugins] plugin to play 2 playlists simultaneously (mixed audio)?

2008-02-18 Thread TheShanMan

I have a situation where I've got some background ambiance noise (an
hour long mp3) that I'd like to play while a normal music playlist is
playing. Is there any plugin or something that would allow me to do
that?

To explain, I have a MAME arcade cabinet and there are some Arcade
Ambience hour long mp3's that someone put together that are basically
a mix of classic arcade games being played to try to simulate the sound
of an 80's arcade. It has no music though (thankfully!), so I'd like to
play my own music over the top of one (or more) of these arcade mp3's.

Hoping there is some way to do this so I don't have to choose between
the arcade mp3's and my music!

Thanks!

I was just wondering what determines the the order of (user defined)
playlists within a group on the SB menu. On the web UI it seems to be
in alphabetical order of the playlist name, but for me the order on the
player screen is different and I can't identify the pattern.

In SC7 you can even select the font size for every single element

Can you explain how please? I can't see an option beyond two lines or

You'll have to enable custom font settings. Or rather disable Use

How much resources is this using on your systems? I have a Celeron 600
with 256mb ram and when I run SS6.5.4 for about 3 months the memory
usage gets up to about 80%. With a fresh reboot of all things it gets
back down to about 50% ram usage and very minimal cpu usage (only high
usage on scan). Will the 600mhz/256mb be stout enough to handle SC7
running on FreeBSD?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] LastFM troubles

2008-02-18 Thread Phil Meyer
I'm happy that I can now stream something from LastFM in SC7.0, having fixed 
the issue with the bitrate string.  James said he would put this in the next 
release.

However, there's still some problems:

1. Reliance on Pandora plugin for Love and Hate icons.  I believe that because 
I have disabled the Pandora plugin (not available in UK), I had to create 
server\Plugins\SqueezeScrobbler\HTML\Default\html\images\btn_thumbs_down.gif 
and btn_thumbs_up.gif, otherwise the server becomes unresponsive whilst trying 
to fetch artwork that it can't find.

2. If I click the thumbs down hate icon, the server seems to skip over 
several songs.  In Moose, I can see songs appear in the now playing window, 
then instantly disappear, until it finally stabilises and plays another song.  
The same thing happens if I click . I hear stuttering whilst it is trying to 
locate the next song to play.

3. Clicking Stop (using Moose - there isn't a stop button in default skin) 
appears to do a skip to next song.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Problem with squeezeslave

2008-02-18 Thread nickname

Hello!
I have just set up my new squeezecenter server. Everything fine with
that. Now I want to use the server also for listening. So I want start
a programm that runs in background and acts as music player controlled
over webinterface or upcomming new remote.
SoftSqueeze runs but crashes sporadiclly. (I don't know why... it seems
to be no memory problem) So I can't use SoftSqueeze which I did not want
to use anyway...
So I want to use squeezeslave. After I seached a while and did not find
it on this site I found it via google. But all I get on startup is:

Code:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/squeezeslave-0.7.4 ./squeezeslave
  Output devices:
  0: /dev/dsp
  0
  Error in recv: Bad file descriptor


(After 0: /dev/dsp I type 0 and hit return)

My OS is openSUSE 10.3 and SqueezeCenter Version is 7.0.

Because I didn't find anything actual by search I hope you can help
me.

Thanks for now,

the plugin shows up in the plugin web-page, too. (see att.)

I installed beta04 and played around with the rating funtions with a

used during my testing they would not go away. I then installed beta05
and I still could see the ratings in the Default skin that did not

cleared the test ratings.

I hope you consider adding the Trackstat support back to the Default
skin when and if you get the time. It appears to me that this is the
Skin that will get the most attention (enhancements) from Slim/Logitech
developers in the future... but I could be wrong.

I'm sure you are right, but at the moment I feel that I have to focus
on the things which I actually use myself. The reason I removed it from
the default skin is because it just contained too many layout bugs and I
felt it was to much work to fix it. 

The TrackStat web user interface really needs a major re-design because
it is pretty user unfriendly in some situations, it's just that that is
even more work.

My current focus is on iPeng skin support, but if anyone likes to
provide a working patch for the default skin I'll include it in a
future release.

To find the option for the AmpSwitch compatibility mode you have to
enable the PowerSwitch II menu for your player, then navigate to the
menu with your remote.

(Pretty much the same as you would have done to enable the original

by your wording i am now assuming that the directory structure needs to

ok, now i copied everything in the directory you included in your

directory structure is key.  :-)

i still seem to be too dumb to find the menu in which i can change the

I had a bit of trouble unzipping it too.

I use WinRar, but I think WinZip has similar functionality.

To get the file to unzip as a folder, I selected it in WinRar, and used
the 'View' function, whereupon WinRar saw it as a zipped folder.  I then
extracted it, and all was well: a folder called 'RemovePlayedSongs'
containing the plugin files.

Hope this helps.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] AlienBBC on OSX users - need help to prove/disprove problem

2008-02-18 Thread sdhubbard

Curious. The instructions in my previous posting will test a freshly
downloaded mplayer with the Mr Kite sample. This test is independent of
any AlienBBC or Slimserver installation.

I've started Slimserver on my Mac and followed the instructions for
installing AlienBBC on
http://www.x2systems.com/AlienBBC/installation.html#mac

I moved the mplayer binary I tested yesterday from /Downloads to the
required /usr/local/bin location for AlienBBC. Everything all works
very well for me.

You can see the list of files that mplayer is using by starting
Activity Monitor (in /Applications/Utilities and then starting mplayer.
While mplayer is active, select it in the Activity monitor window, then
clicking the Inspect button. In the window that opens, select the Open
Files and Ports tab.

Here's the list of open files I get from my mplayer while listening to
Radio 4:

In your error message, the problem seems to be caused by a missing X11
library. 

The name of the file is different to the one that I see. However, when
I open a Finder window on the /usr/X11/lib directory, I see a file
called /usr/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib, which is an alias, pointing to
/usr/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.3.16.dylib. There is also an alias to the X11
folder, called X11R6, in the /usr folder. So on my system a reference to
/usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib will actually open the file
/usr/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.3.16.dylib.

Could you open a Finder window of the /usr directory to see what is in
there? To do this, go to the Finder, then use shift-command-G to go to
a particular folder and type /usr. If the 6.3.16 file is present you
could attempt to create an alias to it called libfreetype.6.dylib. To
create an alias, select the item you wish to create an alias to and
type command-L. Creating any necessary aliases should at least fix the
'missing library' error.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: XMRadio Plugin for 7.0

2008-02-18 Thread Cruzan

I found the source of my initial problems - XM doesn't sync. It works
great with 1 SB but hangs on Login when synced, and neither box
plays.

It's great hearing the high-quality XM feed though. I'll use Pandora
most of the time because it syncs, but it's nice to have XM for a
change of pace.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Problem with squeezeslave

2008-02-18 Thread Dominique

Hi nickname,

Most squeezeslave discussions are happening in this thread

http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37460

so you may want to look at it once in a while.

 Hello!
 I have just set up my new squeezecenter server. Everything fine with
 that. Now I want to use the server also for listening. So I want start
 a programm that runs in background and acts as music player controlled
 over webinterface or upcomming new remote.
 SoftSqueeze runs but crashes sporadiclly. (I don't know why... it seems
 to be no memory problem) So I can't use SoftSqueeze which I did not want
 to use anyway...
 So I want to use squeezeslave. After I seached a while and did not find
 it on this site I found it via google. 
 

Same story for me, except I found squeezeslave in a semi-abandoned
state and picked up its maintenance.

 
 But all I get on startup is:
  
Code:

  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/squeezeslave-0.7.4 ./squeezeslave
   Output devices:
   0: /dev/dsp
   0
   Error in recv: Bad file descriptor

  
 (After 0: /dev/dsp I type 0 and hit return)
 
 My OS is openSUSE 10.3 and SqueezeCenter Version is 7.0.
 
 Because I didn't find anything actual by search I hope you can help
 me.
 
 Thanks for now,
 
 nickname

From the command I see, you are starting squeezeslave in interactive
mode, a leftover from a previous attempt, which should be removed.  It
could very well be that it already works, though; hitting return just
exits the program.  Have you tried playing with the volume/mute of your
output device?  Can you confirm that you can play an audio file using a
standard player (flac123, mpg123, ...)?  This mode still works, but
there are also better options you should try:

--signal: lets you shutdown with SIGTERM (friendly for running as
daemon)
--retry: causes squeezeslave to keep trying to reach the server if
connection is dropped or squeezecenter is not present when squeezeslave
starts.

You should read the help provided when issuing squezeslave --help for a
better description.  You can also compile with the debug options (in
makefile.linux, it's the commented-out CFLAGS): this will allow you to
specify debug options which output info at runtime.  The output is
messy, but you may gather some useful info.

You may want to update to the latest version, which fixes a few race
conditions and infinite loops.

Please post your results to the squeezeslave enhancments thread and
welcome aboard!

Once you're up and running, if you don't mind, we can arrange so you
can post your binary on sourceforge.

Dominique

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Delete Played Songs From Playlist?

 Yeah, that would be great, wouldn't it :-)
 
 Perhaps if I can find the time.  That's a much bigger hack than this
 was.  Porting this guy to SC7 was very easy, as it doesn't have any
 options or interface.  That's where things start to get, uh,
 interesting.

Ok, so the new Knight Rider was really mindless (like that was a
surprise) and I found myself with some time.

I added a menu item to turn it on and off, and also fixed what appeared
to be a bug that I think would have occurred if anybody had tried to run
this while playing music on two SqueezeBoxen at one time.

I've put it on my server, under http://www.koldware.com/SlimStuff

Hopefully pulling off the web will solve the problems some people seem
to have with unzipping (I can't duplicate that, BTW.  Downloads and
unzips fine for me).

Enjoy
Eric
