A user who knows better than the plugin author can still edit the  
install.xml file. The whole idea of this check is to reduce calls of users  
who have their SC crash because they're running incompatible plugins.  
People should know what they're doing. Then it's simple enough to edit a  
text file.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: SqueezeScrobbler 1.0 for SqueezeCenter 7.0

2008-06-12 Thread James

gwnzen, I have no idea what's wrong there. 
Best thing is to check the server log to see if the plugins are even
mentioned.
You might want to start a new thread making it clear that no plugins
are working for you, as more people will look at that.

jjsqueeze, I did a test last night and changing stations works fine on
my Controller and SqueezeCentre 7.0.2. When I press play on the new
station, playback stops immediately and the new station starts a moment
later.
Again, I think I'd need to see the whole log to work out what's wrong.
Could you attach it in a zip file?

thanks

James

A switch in the settings pages to ignore maxVersion would be great. In
this case each plugin developer can decide what to support but still
let the user take the chance and ignore it and run it anyway.

I've but 7+ in maxVersion in all my plugins, because I'm pretty sure
none of them will work in 8.0 without modification. I'm a bit worried
that they won't even work in 7.3 due to the recent database schema
discussions in the developers forums, but I'm pretty sure the schema
changes will end up in 8.0 and not 7.3.

It would be even better if the max/min versions was checked against a
plugin API version and not against SqueezeCenter version, but this
isn't possible at the moment since we don't have a clear definition
which parts of  SqueezeCenter that defines the "Plugin API".

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Multi Library and MusicIP Filter question

2008-06-12 Thread astonm

I have the latest MultiLibrary plugin(2.0.beta04), MusicIP and SC 7.0.2
installed on Windows XP. Setup is working fine with 4 sub libraries. I
noticed, however, that when browsing within a sub-library and you
choose to create a MusicIP mix, the generated playlist pulls tracks
from all the sub libraries. 

I thought about configuring MusicIP to use a filter to restrict the
scope of mixing for a sub-library. On the SC side, I'm curious if
there's a way to specify a different MusicIP filter for each
sub-library from within SC/MultiLibrary? The desired behavior is for SC
to dynamically switch to a different MusicIP Filter when browsing within
a sub-library. The API does support specifying a Filter when requesting
a mix (see http://www.musicip.com/mixer/httpprotocol.jsp). 

Thanks.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce]: iPeng 0.4 iPhone / iTouch plugin

2008-06-12 Thread pippin

Thanks for the cool comments.

Now here's the short roadmap:

1. adapt to the new features iPhone 2.0 will deliver
2. native app.

Why this way around? Quite frankly: Apple will improve a LOT on the
next generation of iPhone (that is: software generation, so this will
be available to "old" iPhones and iPods as an update) so most of the
responsiveness issues can be solved using this.
Since I feel a webapp is still more flexible and extensible than a
native app (compare the number of plugins available to, say, the SBC) I
think that path is important

The native app will still come, but it will probably look a bit
different from the skin and offer some integration with other stuff.
I'll keep you updated

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce]: iPeng 0.4 iPhone / iTouch plugin

2008-06-12 Thread PRGeno

I've been looking for a remote control solution for over 2 years, for my
growing SqueezeBox network.  I've gone through options trying a RF
remote, Windows mobile devices, and both web and native apps on a
couple different Windows tablet PCs.  But I have never found the right
combination of features and hardware form factor.

I bought a SB Controller as soon as it became available separately last
month.  I thought I finally found the answer, as the Controller is a
very nice device, and works quite well.  But unfortunately one of the
primary requirements for my solution is the ability to control the SB
network from outside on my patio, and the Controller's screen just
doesn't cut it outside.

I now think the solution has arrived.  I read about iPeng here, and
decided to pick up an iPod Touch yesterday.  It was so simple to get
iPeng running, and it works very well.  It's a little slow, and seems
to lose it's mind every once in awhile, but what a great job you have
done.

Thank you very much Pippen.  I'm now heading over to donate on your web
site, and look forward to where you are taking your pet penguin project.

OK, that looks like it actually does that. I thought they always do
100x100 for Jive.
Problem is: I will need 100x100f for the 2.0 version. But anyway: I
thing this is not a big issue since it's always one image at a time,
not like 50 or so as with the browse pages.

On top of that the is caching of resampled image. 

I guess you could modify the pre-generated caching of artwork that
takes place when scanning music to generate 320px images as well. Maybe
just by modifying the thumbnail size in settings from 100 to 320.

Depends. Your serer will have to resize/resample so if your server is
slow this can take a bit, but that's probably not an issue with only
one pic.

Second thing is: Depends on your artwork. If that's got lower
resolution it may actually take more time. But you are right in that

Good hint, I will give it a try.

Expect bigger changes for iPhone 2.0 anyway, some things will get MUCH
