Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: New versions of erlands plugins
A number of new versions of my plugins has now been released: SQLPlayList 2.3: - Added support for SQL Playlist mixer to create SQL Playlists based on selections in browse menus Title Switcher 1.1.1 - Corrected so empty static texts aren't displayed unless the dynamic part contains any information DynamicPlayList 2.6.1 - Corrected so parametrizied playlists with more than 200 items works on Controller - Corrected so alarm playlists and saved playlsits survives a full rescan. - Added support for start and numberOfItems parameters to dynamicplaylist playlists CLI command. CustomScan 2.3 - Corrected so Amazon scanning module can write SqueezeCenter ratings - Added support for SQL Playlist mixer to create SQL Playlists from selections in Custom Browse Tags(Dynamic Tags) menu. CustomBrowse 2.6 - Added support for Various Artists in Genres/SubGenres menu - Added support for dynamic third party plugin mixers, used by new SQL Playlist mixers provided by Custom Scan and SQL Playlist plugin. - Optimized Controller communication a bit to improve performance a bit. TrackStat 2.6 - Added playlist templates for use with SQL Playlist: -- TrackStat last added songs -- TrackStat last played songs -- TrackStat last added albums NOTE! They can still be installed the old way, but if you run SqueezeCenter 7.3 the recommended way is to use the Extension Downloader in SqueezeCenter settings.

Check if the just released versions of SQL Playlist and Dynamic Playlist solves your problems. You will have to re-select/re-create the favorites and alarm playlists. If some SQL Playlists still fails, enable debug logging on "plugin.sqlplaylist" and "plugin.dynamicplaylist" in SqueezeCenter Settings/Advanced/Logging and post the log directly after a playlist has failed.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: New versions of erlands plugins
Thanks a lot for the new versions of your great plugins! Some questions: 1. In the present version of CustomBrowse there is the problem that for multi disc albums the extensions (Disc 1), (Disc 2) ... are not shown in the browse menu if the "show multi disc albums as separate albums" option is set. Is this fixed in the new version? 2. We previously discussed if it is possible to define the sorting by DISC-TRACKNUM instead only by TRACKNUM in a CustomBrowse menu definition. You mentioned that this would only be possible by customizing the XML. Is this still true in the new version? If yes, it would be great if you could give a short explanation how the XML file must be amended. 3. There are several "by letter" menus predifined in CustomBrowse (e.g. artist by letter, albums by letter). What I am missing is a "title by letter" menu. At the moment I do not use a title menu at all since it takes ages until the long list of song titles are displayed (and browsing through about 10.000 song titles takes also very long). Is it possible to create a "title by letter" menu with CustomBrowse and would that accelerate browsing? -- dip dip's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=902 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49483 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Help needed from other Inguz users
Do you have the rest of Inguz working but no test signals? One option might be to generate sweeps using the approach I describe at http://www.tarind.com/brutefir_drc.html. That method generates filters without using any SC plugins. That method is particularly handy for users of the brutefirdrc plugin, which provides room correction but has no support for generating filters. That same method can be used to generate filters for the Inguz plugin too.. Although I dont know if anyone has actually tried this with Inguz since I scratched out that documentation, which probably means I missed out a few critical Inguz-specific steps. You might need to improvise, but that is surely better than being stuck with out of date room correction filters. ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom SQL Playlist problem
Just had a very quick play in WebUI, and notice a few things: 1. Went to "Custom Browse > Tags > Years > 2008 > Genre", and clicked "Create mixed tag SQL Playlist" on the Rock genre. This created a template named "Random for Rock" - it would be nice if the default name included all selected values, eg "Random for 2008 Rock". 2. Saved the playlist and played it. However, it played random songs from genre=Rock, not constrained to year=2008. The template has mixed tag name YEAR equal to 2008, and switching to custom SQL looks okay: -- PlaylistName:Random for Rock -- PlaylistGroups: select tracks.url from tracks left join dynamicplaylist_history on tracks.id=dynamicplaylist_history.id and dynamicplaylist_history.client='PlaylistPlayer' join customscan_track_attributes mixedtag1 on tracks.id=mixedtag1.track and mixedtag1.module='mixedtag' and mixedtag1.attr='YEAR' and mixedtag1.value ='2008' join customscan_track_attributes mixedtag2 on tracks.id=mixedtag2.track and mixedtag2.module='mixedtag' and mixedtag2.attr='GENRE' and mixedtag2.value ='Rock' where tracks.audio=1 group by tracks.id order by rand() limit 10; 3. The templates it creates are always random tracks. Is it possible to select an option to create random albums? 4. I then navigated to "Custom Browse > Dynamic Mixed Tags > Years", and clicked "Create mixed tag SQL Playlist" on 2008. This created a template named "Random for 2008", but it also contained a filter on GENRE=Rock. i.e. previous selected items were also included.

It doesn't really matter to me, but don't think Andy liked its synchronous HTTP calls. TrackStat doesn't have any synchronous HTTP calls when it is used by itself, but part of the TrackStat code is called from the Custom Scan plugin and that part of the TrackStat code contains synchronous HTTP calls. TrackStat does also have a long startup time in large libraries on slow machines which might be something that could cause support issues. I'm sure Andy will give me a huge list of refactoring possibilities if he reviews it because this is my oldest plugin and huge parts of it really needs a major rewrite. I'm not going to do this rewrite until I've seen the new schema in 8.0, at the moment I'm not sure if it's even possible to implement the TrackStat functionality after the schema change in 8.0. The reason is that TrackStat is currently heavily dependent on direct access towards the database which I understood wasn't possible in the new schema. If TrackStat fails to pass the review, my Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Multi Library and Database Query plugins will probably fail for the same reasons. -- 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

I had recently done a full rescan, and hadn't refreshed the mixed tags in Custom Scan (I turned off auto refresh option for all components). I refreshed, and now it's working. Perhaps when doing a full rescan, it should always clear any mixed tag info.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: New versions of erlands plugins
Some critical bugs were found in the latest SQL Playlist and Custom Scan plugins, so there are now new versions available of these: Custom Scan 2.3.1: - Corrected so repeat option works in Random for mixed tag from selection playlist template works. - Corrected so all values are part of playlist name in SQL Playlist created through mixers SQL Playlist 2.3.1: - Corrected problem with browse menus in classic player interface - Corrected so track repeating option works in Random from selection playlist template NOTE! They can still be installed the old way, but if you run SqueezeCenter 7.3 the recommended way is to use the Extension Downloader in SqueezeCenter settings.

I think CGI.pm is effectively included with SqueezeCenter though -- it's been in Perl core since early Perl 5, and I've had no error reports about this, not even from Windows users. Maybe ActiveState is including CGI.pm code in the released EXE that you'd rather it leave out? Anyhow, I'm happy to switch, and I appreciate your review. There's nothing I can do about the global variables right now though, as per our discussion of $client->pluginData being tied to sync groups rather than specific clients.

It is indeed a condition the code was not prepared for, namely Wunderground just delivering a single day of forecast.
