Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Where to find SqueezePlay for 7.2
The desktop version of SqueezePlay was introduced in 7.3 so it doesn't exist in a 7.2 version. All available pre-built binary downloads can be found here: http://downloads.slimdevices.com/ If you like to use the Controller version of SqueezePlay 7.2 and run it on a Mac, you can download the source from svn and compile it yourself, see here for more information: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SqueezePlay_Build_Instructions The main difference between the 7.2 Controller version and the 7.3 desktop version is that it doesn't have audio playback and you can't run it in a large window. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) 'My download page' (http://erland.isaksson.info/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/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=56956 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

FYI - intall of new plugin may have caused an issue between the plugin and mplayer for me. Never had issues with mplayer prior to this install. Stream was playing per SB3 and SC web interface but with no audio. SC settings for file types indicated mplayer not found. I replaced the existing file for mplayer with the version included with the latest AlienBBC package for Mac OS and everything is ok.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] MusicIP Import
I'm baffled by the behavior of the squeezecenter scanner when it tries to import my MusicIP library. For the first few attempts, the scan would get about 3/4 through the library and quit. This appears to have been the result of special characters in the names of files and/or folders (i.e. 'P!NK' had to be renamed 'Pink'). Once I got past that issue the following has presented itself... MusicIP Library has 20,421 tracks. SqueeezeCenter scans all 20,421 then indicates a resulting 20,253 tracks. Rhapsody files that were downloaded onto my machine (90 total) don't get imported and I understand that is likely the result of licensing. The other 80 missing songs includes about 30 track that I bought on Amazon.com just this week (they indicate no licensing restrictions and are not protected). Is there a spec that could help me understand what files will and will not be imported? btw, the import takes about 1/2 hour to complete. This seems to be very slow for just scanning a library.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: SuperDateTime - Current Date/Temperature and/or Baseball Screensaver
I have just started to use the plugin for the very first time. I have installed it via the Extension Downloader. I have configered the plugin as best I could under Settings. My city is Duisburg Germany and the correct information shows on the text ribbon that travels across my SB3 screen. So far so good However I have two problems which probably result from my being unable to work out where the settings should be configured. These do not appear as options on the current SuperDateTime settings on the plugins tab. 1) When the ribbon abruptly changes to a current snapshot it changes from Celsius to Fahrenheit (Celsius shows correctly on the ribbon), and I cannot work out where this can be specified.. 2) Where do I specify that I want a 10 day forecast?

What are we suppose to review, is it "just" that the plugin doesn't include malicious code or are we talking about a general review of the code to get an idea of the code quality ? If you want this to be done correctly it could take some time, finding malicious code could be pretty hard since if someone decides to do something bad they are probably also going to try to hide it in the code. I'm guessing that there is a risk that we are going to get a lot of "supported" plugins but very few where someone has actually bothered to review the code. Using third party plugins is always a risk. Today when I install a third party plugin I generally trust a developer and not a particular plugin. If the developer earlier has shown to write good plugins that doesn't do anything bad, I just install new plugins from the same developer without reviewing the code. If a new developer announce a plugin, I either wait until some users has tried it or I take a quick look at the code to see if it looks like the developer knows what he is doing. I wonder if the review process actually will protect us against anything. If someone intentionally likes to do something bad, they are just going to hide it in the code or release an initial version which is save to get into the recommended list and then release the malicious version as an upgrade when they are already on the recommended list. I suppose the only thing the review process is going to protect us against is that new developers who don't know what they are doing can't get on the recommended list until their code has been cleaned up by someone. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) 'My download page' (http://erland.isaksson.info/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/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=56697 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

One advantage to MusicIP is that it is bundled plugin so it will always work with new SC releases. Sugarcube is a third party thing and the author has to maintain it to keep it compatible with SC updates. I guess the main advantage to Sugarcube is you can enable it and let it go, and (theoretically) it should just keep adding new tracks endlessly, until you intervene and disable it.

Wouldn't it be much more useful instead to have two buttons: "Restart SqueezeCentre now" "I'll do it myself later" which is what most programs do when installing an update that requires a restart. -- Bill Burns Long Island NY USA http://ftldesign.com ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

No, they're not, at least not in the publicly released versions. There is a special "zen" version that's designed this way, but that's available only at select zendos and ashrams. Not. I'm not sure what's going on here. This is the first report of this type I've seen. My suggestion is that you completely erase the /var/lib/squeezecenter/Plugins/SrvrPowerCtrl folder tree and then put the newest version of the plugin back in place. Then delete the srvrpowerctrl.prefs file at /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs/plugin/srvrpowerctrl.prefs (I don't remember off hand where this file resides on Windows systems). If your server is running linux or somesuch, make sure you fixup the ownership of the plugin files after install: chown -R /var/lib/squeezecenter/Plugins/ Then restart squeezecenter and see if it behaves better. Please let me know what it takes to iron out this kink.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: FindArt plugin beta
I forgot to post this when 7.3 was released. The update to FindArt for Squeezecenter 7.3 is ready and can be installed using the Extension Downloader (ED) a new feature of 7.3 which is accessed through Settings/Plugins/Extension Downloader/settings. Install instructions for FindArt plugin are below following some explanation about the ED. *About Extension Downloader* The Extension Downloader (ED) is an automated method for installing, updating and removing plugins, applets, InfoBrowser Addons etc from repositoryies. Currently the public repository is small but it will be expanded to hold popular/recommnded plugins etc. Currently most Plugins are in private repositories and the user will have add URLs to the "Additional Repositories" list. The FindArt is in my repository at URL. URLs for other repositories can be found here http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SqueezeCenter_Repositories Feedback on the functionality, ease of use, shortcoming, problems etc on ED is needed so that it can be improved for the next release. *To install FindArt plugin* 1. If you have a version of the FindArt plugin already installed in SC 7.3 then it needs to be deleted and SC restarted SC. 2. Open SC Setting/Plugins/Extension Downloader/Settings 3. Add this URL http://bpaplugins.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/repo.xml to "Additional Repositories" and click Apply. 4. A list of Plugins should be displayed. Check the box opposite the FindArt plugin and click apply. 5. If Installation is successful - restart SC. The Extension Downloader does not install plugins into the server/Plugins or the server/Slim/Plugin directory. It will install plugin into a new directory called InstalledPlugin in Sc's cahce directory. The path to the SC cache direciry can be found on the Settings/Information web page near the bottom of the page. Using ED is the preferred installation method but if the user really wants to install manually from a zip file then the FindArt plugin is available from the following location http://code.google.com/p/bpaplugins/downloads/list -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49245 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Disappearing BBC ident
A really weird problem. I have been running Alien BBC v2.2b1 - 7.1_7.2 perfectly successfully with SqueezeCenter 7.2.1 - 23630 for some time on Vista 64 but today the station identification on the SB3 has disappeared! The only thing on the display is "NOW PLAYING", the time and the volume bars. The ident (ie BBC 2) has gone. I have some US stations stored and these still show the identification so it is an Alien BBC problem. Any thoughts?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] MusicInfoSCR problem, possible bug
Michael, hopefully you are seeing this. I have some problem with the Title Switcher plugin when it integrates with MusicInfoSCR. The problem is the following code in Info.pm in MusicInfoSCR: Code: if ( $client->pluginData('remoteData') ) { foreach my $tag (@remoteTags) { $formattedString =~ s/$tag/_MIS_REMOTE_$tag/g; } } The problem with this is that if $formattedString is set to "TITLESWITCHERALBUMARTIST" this code section will replace it to "_MIS_REMOTE_TITLESWITCHER_MIS_REMOTE_ALBUM_MIS_REMOTE_ARTIST". It's of course correct to do the replacement if $formattedString was "TITLE - ARTIST" but I think it's incorrect if TITLE or ARTIST is part of a another word (like TITLESWITCHERARTIST, ALBUMARTIST). Is it possible to change this so it replaces the remoteTags keywords if they are found as separate words but not if they are found as part of a another word ? I can do an ugly correction in Title Switcher to solve it, but I would prefer avoiding dependencies in Title Switcher to MusicInfoSCR internals like the string _MIS_REMOTE_ and the @remoteTags array. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) 'My download page' (http://erland.isaksson.info/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/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=56898 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
