Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: CDplayer plugin

2009-01-12 Thread danco

I followed those instructions, and cdda2wav wasn't found, as it is in
/usr/local/bin. The plugin used to work, eo I looked at the shell
script, and there seems to be a typo.

Ah. Got it, I think. cdda2wavosx.sh reads 

if [ -x /usr/locl/bin/$app ] ; then
echo "Found cdda2wav in /usr/local/bin " 1>&2
app=/usr/local/bin/$app
fi

The first line says

/usr/locl/bin

where it should say

/usr/local/bin

But that change doesn't seem to be enough. I made it, stopped

See my posts. Part of the problem is the exact location of cdda2wav.
Let us know where it is. If you have difficulty finding it, I reckon
that the free Easyfind is the best way of looking, Spotlight won't find
it.

The "locl" was a typo but it looks like cdda2wav always installed into
/usr/bin as previous logs showed cdda2wav being executed as the
CDplayer plugin found the cdda2wav and supplied the full path to shell

cdda2wav will not run successfully  if you do *not* supply the device
name (i.e. there is no default device) so the second use of "cdda2wav"
does not prove anything. It is quite possible that CDplayer device name
preference setting has a bug under OSX or Leopard has changed the naming
of devices.

What sort of CD/DVD drive have you got in your system ?
Do you have multiple optical drive (e.g. CD-RW & DVDROM) ? 

You should test with different device names the command 
cdda2wav device=devicename -verbose-level=toc -N -g -J

It is possible you have to unmount the disk before running cdda2wav
each time - so using the script would be the easiest way to test all
possible device names.

A successful command will show the TOC of the CD.

If this is too much effort, would it be an easier and quicker solution
to directly include the second level of the standard SqueezeCenter song
info menu into the CustomBrowse track info menu or is that not possible?
At the end this would result in the same as the correct solution, having

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: CDplayer plugin

2009-01-12 Thread danco

There are two of us having problems, Jim and me. My first problem, which
he did not have, was the typo preventing cdda2wav being found.

I doubt if Leopard has changed the naming of devices, as the earlier
version of the plugin worked with earlier versions of Leopard, and a
minor upgrade of the OS is unlikely to make that kind of change.

What should the devicename be, or how can one find it?

I tried your earlier use of the shell script, and Terminal said "Audio
CD on disk3 unmounted."

Then I tried your latest suggestion with disk3 as the devicename (and
the CD unmounted) and got told "no matching device disk3 found." Same
applied when I tried /dev/disk3 as the devicename.

The mount command in Terminal lists all mounted drives, and it is
showing 

/dev/disk3 on /Volumes/Audio CD (cddafs, local, nodev, nosuid,
read-only, noowners)

I looked way back in the thread for some of the things I tried
previously that finally let you get the earlier version to work.

The command 

cdda2wav dev=IODVDServices -verbose-level=toc -N -g -J

worked fine on an unmounted CD but (I'm not sure if it is supposed to
do this or not) ended, after providing a TOC, by mounting the disk
again.

When I tried the same command on a mounted CD, it complained "Unable to
get exclusive access to device". That, I think, is what it should do.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: muso (beta)

2009-01-12 Thread egd

I successfully carried out a deep scan of a subset of my library and the
import log indicates zero errors.  I noticed it goes looking for artwork
after the import, which leads to my questions: 1) if there's artwork in
the album folders, how does it select which file it will use as the
coverart - can this be made configurable e.g. folder.jpg; 2) I presume
the order of things is it looks locally and then uses online
resources.



A quick bug to mention also - when it's finding artwork the dialogue
box is persistent even if you switch to a different application eg. I'm
watching it collect album art as I type this post.

At this moment I can't help you, my understanding of the code is not
yet good enough for rewriting parts to also support the Boom.
Currently I'm just merging the code from mavit and rubbermp3 to get to
a new 'official' version. I guess I'll be able to start testing all
changes tonight on my own squeezebox 3 and after that I'll commit them
to the repository so Martin can release a new 'official' version.

Looks in the folder in this order:
*large*.jpg
*cover*.jpg
*front*.jpg
**.jpg
**.jpg

Only if none found will it check online resources. I should probably
make it check for .png files too. But yes I could make this

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: CDplayer plugin

2009-01-12 Thread bpa

The main problem with OSX was the mounting the disk after each command. 
This was overcome by having making sure a "unmount" was executed before
the cdda2wav command.

Now it seems the latest version of CDplayer no longer works. There has
been no feedback from anybody else who has downloaded the OSX version
of the plugin so I am not clear on the status.

Possible causes:
- New version of OSX and some sort of change with IODVDservices (or
similar for CD drives)
- SC update has broken OSX plugin support.
- OSX plugin source code problem - perhaps an update has broken OSX
version or OSX version never worked as distributed only as patched by
users.
- cdda2wav is broken.

My assumption is that for both Danco & jimi00 the plugins used to work.
So what was version of SC, OSX and CDplugin that worked.

Plugin now no longer works and one or more items have been upgraded. So
what is current version of SC and OSX.  

I assume cdda2wav has not been upgraded.

a) If there are no song lyrics I think it should give up a little more
quickly - I know its not gonna find the lyrics for 99% or the stuff on
my system  - this will leave a relatively empty page (visualiser?
photoshow? maybe pull out references to the individual song from last
fm or amazon)

b) ambitious wish for version 3.0! - a lot of my material falls within
the remit of other extensive libraries of informatiom e.g. a worrying
large amount of my collection can be found somewhere on
http://www.progarchives.com/ I amsure there are similar resources for
Jazz and so on - can we hope for the addition of more resouce look ups
in the system other than last fm and amazon?

c)"albums sorted by date added" doesnt do what i expect - Id like to
get the same results as "new music" on SC - although admittedly
sometimes I have to bully it into showing a newly added album by
running it through mp3tag (something to do with date added/modified
tags). 

d) on a related note "month added" is fine but when you are dealing
with music addicts like a lot of SB owners I can help thinking a "show
by month or show by week" option would be really good though it would
depend on fixing the above

Thanks for an excellent program (I especially like that it highlights
other artists/ albums in your collection that you might like) and your
response to my questions.

A few suggestions if I may:
Re artwork, if I recall correctly SC looks for folder.jpg and/ or
cover.jpg, so it might make sense to make those the first two files
searched for.  In any event, a configurable default or filespec would
make sense and shorten scan times eg. in my collection it's folder.jpg
or it doesn't exist, regardless of what other jpg's may reside in the
same folder.

I noticed the clear database option is missing in the latest version -
any plans to reincorporate?

Would be useful to make the "Import" function a button so that it's
readily visible as something that's clickable.

Allmusic.com data integration (artist biography, album reviews) would
be lovely (even if opt-in paid/ license fee).

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Ratings issues - iTunes update and Trackstat

I've have happily used my Squeezebox 3 for a while and have started
experimenting with Plugins.  My current wish is to display track
ratings on the 'Now playing' screen.  I have previously been rating
songs using iTunes update.  Since installing Trackstat (and Title
switcher), iTunes Update seems no longer to work.  Previously, I could
rate tracks using the remote and this rating would appear on iTunes,
but now this creates a Trackstat rating only.  Also, I attempted to
import my existing iTunes ratings into Trackstat, using Custom Scan,
without success.  Currently, I can see Trackstat ratings on 'Now
playing', but not my iTunes ratings.  Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Howto use a television remote control to control SB

2009-01-12 Thread Hering

Hi all, 
I would like to use my Samsung TV remote control my SB. This remote
control allows to switch between different receivers, such as the TV,
the VCR or others. The layout of the buttons allows an intuitive
mapping to SBs functions.

The following questions arise:
1) Does my SB "receive" the IR signals (same carrier or modulation
frequency) of the Samsung remote? How can I check that?
2) If my SB is able to receive the IR signals, how can I retrieve a
mapping file (such as the existing NAD remote file)? Are there any
interfaces, where I can dump the received and uninterpreted signals?

Thanks for your help!
Cheers, 
Hering

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: CDplayer plugin

2009-01-12 Thread danco

I am currently using OS 10.5.6 and SqueezeCenter 7.3.1. I did both
upgrades (from 10.5.5 OS X and SC 7.2) around the same time and had not
used CDPlayer with only one of the two upgrades.

It was certainly working on OS 10.5.5, which I used for a considerable
time, not sure which version of CDPlayer, but it would have been the
one(s) after you had worked out why I initially had problems, and
solved those. And I must have been using SC 7.x, where I am not sure
what x is.

Looking back in this thread, I see that I got it working on May 10th,
after making one or two changes. You probably incorporated those
changes in a later version.

See my most recent post regarding IODVDServices, where a call seems to
work ok.

I have attached an old version of CDHandler.pm in case you no longer
have it. 

Notice the difference between that version and the current version
around lines 159-166 (and there are other differences that I have not
yet looked at). The old version has

159 my $command = "cdda2wav";
160 
161 if ($osdetected eq 'mac') {
162 $command = "cdda2wavosx.sh";
163 };
164 
165 my $cmdparams  = "device=$device -verbose-level=toc -N -g -J";
166 

while the current version does not have the lines 161 and 162

You dont have to wait for it to finish its search for lyrics - things
like this are done in the background so you can carry on. I could make
lyrics fetching optional if your tracks are mostly obscure. There is a
track info API I can try to pull from last.fm, but even most of my

Yes, next I'll try MusicBrainz to see if that can provide any useful
info, I'll keep my eye open for others, and you users can help with
this too! Let me know if there's any useful resources you know of (must
provide an open API - I don't intend to get into screen-scraping).

Ah - that's because it's the date added to muso, rather than date added
to SC. If and when muso becomes your master repository, this will become
more useful. I could make this optional for SC users who want that to be
the master repository though I suppose - add it to the Feature Requests

You may have found the problem. 

I changed the custom-convert.conf file to call the cdda2wavosx.sh so
that there was fewer OS dependent code branches in the main files.  I
tidied up the code and may have removed the code between 161-163 by

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] MusicInfoSCR 4.3 - now with theOriginal Boom Booklet Layout

2009-01-12 Thread Chippy

> Could you please describe how you get in that situation?

In the MusicInfoSCR plugin settings, I've selected to display the
'sleep' icon in the top right hand corner of my SB3, and I've also
chosen to 'animate' the icon. (I'm not at home at the moment - let me
know if I need to be clearer on these setting details).

Then, I push the 'sleep' button on the remote a number of times to
select a sleep time for the SB3. If I select 15, 30 or 45 minutes, the
icon appears and alternates every second or so with an icon that
includes small circle. If I select 60 minutes, the icon without a
circle appears and then disappears every second. It's as if the '60
minutes' sleep icon with the circle is not included in the plugin.

Using a Mac (OS X 10.5.6) running SC 7.3.1

You dont HAVE to rescan folders if you change version - unless you want
to pull in metadata that is now scanned which wasn't in the previous
version, as I did with "Year" in flac files - but this will be
relatively static from now on.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] SlimNAS 1.1 for SqueezeCenter 7.1+

2009-01-12 Thread ik632

I just did a test build last night on vmware (there are blank machines
you can download from the internet as well as blank virtual drives).

Here's what I did:

SlimNAS 1.1.3
FreeNAS 0.69RC2 (i386)
SqueezeCenter 7.3.1

Installed FreeNAS on virtual machine. I created a 2gb "OS" drive and
installed FreeNAS to that using the "full" install because I planned on
adding SlimNAS to it and I've had the best luck with running off a hard
disk. The 2gb drive was broken into 1gb for OS install and 1gb for
remainder data (I'll get into this more later). I setup two virtual IDE
drives 20gb each and made a raid 1 drive out of them. I created 4 512mb
SCSI drives and created a 1.5gb Raid5 array (wanted to test this while
I was at it). Finally mounted the drives as follows:

1gb remainder - mounted as "/mnt/osd" short for os drive (SlimNAS is
installed here)
20gb raid1 array - mounted as "/mnt/raid1" (I know, I'm not original).
1.5gb raid5 array - you guessed it, mounted as "/mnt/raid5" 

Next I created the appropriate shares so I could copy stuff to the
machine. I created a media folder on the 20gb share then a SlimNAS
folder on the 1gb osd share. I ran the install per the instructions.

1. Run a command from the FreeNAS web gui to run "/bin/sh
/mnt/osd/slimnas/slimnas-install.sh"
a. you have to wait a little while here for things to finish. I
went and had a sandwich.
2. When you refresh the web gui there will be a new "extensions" tab
across the top (for those of you that haven't seen it yet 0.69rc2 has a
new web gui).
3. Go to extensions and squeezecenter
4. This is the important part here that you have to pay attention to
that nobody seams to do so.
5. Click on SqueezeCenter 7.3.1 in the list for install and pick Save
a. This will install squeezecenter. This took about 5 minutes for
things to settle down after it was done.
b. You can go have another sandwich at this time because you don't
want to rush it.
6. Once you have given it plenty of time to install, you will want to
start the service.
7. Click on "enable" and keep existing install. 
8. This will take another 5 minutes to run and finish starting up.
9. You should wait here, just be patient.
10. Go to the ip address of your server:9000 and you'll have the nice
squeezecenter startup page greeting you.
11. Log into your squeeze account if you want and then scan for music.

Maybe this is because my coffee hasn't kicked in yet - but where do I
find that config file? I have the new desktop search on my server and
I'm still figuring that out but I can't seem to find that file or any
of the alienbbc files in the directories with the regular squeezecenter
files.  I looked for the setting in 7.3 but couldn't find that
either..

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] SlimNAS 1.1 for SqueezeCenter 7.1+

2009-01-12 Thread ik632

Some observations about this setup:

1. My current install is an old Celeron 600 with 512mb of ram.
2. The "virtual install" has 1gb ram and 1.9ghz modern AMD processor
(I'm running a 32 bit os and 32 bit FreeNAS install).
3. The setup is incredibly fast across the network (maybe double the
speed of my current setup).
4. I suspect that this is due to a very small database since I only
copied over 25 or so songs before scanning.
5. The new FreeNAS is very nice, there are some new services which may
make it very usable.
6. SlimNAS 1.1.3 was very easy to install wiht 7.3.1. I know I've done
it a few times now, but it was easier than in the past.

Great work Michael!

With AlienBBC 2.4 (and possibly 2.3) for 7.3 - this has been simplified
and there is now a AlienBBC setting  "Fast Start" to enable/disable use
of "bandwidth".

Try disabling the "fast Start" and see if it makes a difference.  This
feature will only affect "Listen again" streams. If live stream stop -
then it is a network problem.

I would be big and fat if I had to eat a sandwich every time I test install 
SlimNAS.

What hardware are you running the VM on? I'm using an old 1GHz Athlon with 1GB

Ok, got it. Ha! That's an odd issue... I've been using that custom font of mine 
to display thos icons. And I've been doing so without paying any attention to 
some of the meanings of those characters. Turns out the one which I use for the 
missing icon is reserved for some special task in SC's display control, 
therefore can't be displayed. I'll have to rebuild the plugin with new artwork. 
Might take a while till I find the time to do so, I'm sorry.

Thanks for the heads up! This fix will be in the next release, promised :-)

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Ratings issues - iTunes update and Trackstat

2009-01-12 Thread Craig, James (IT)
With both plugins installed, when you rate tracks from TrackStat, iTunesUpdate 
should receive a callback from TrackStat and send the new rating to iTunes.

SO, when you rate the tracks, do you see the new rating in the iTunes Update 
menu/webpage but it doesn't get saved to iTunes, or iTunesUpdate doesn't get 
the rating at all?

I guess you could block the plugin from the CLI --or simply drop a file
called "sc-block" in /var/lock/  if under linux (another new feature
:-)

You could automate this on a linux server with a small daemon doing
something like an 'lsof' looking if files are opened in the area used
by XBMC every X minutes. Lsof will work for protocols which open files,
such as SMB or AFP. It won't work for NFS, but for NFS you can parse the
output of nfsstat to see if you're getting reads or writes.
Both options are more discriminating than counting raw packets on the
network interface, IMHO.

Different apps write tags to the id3 metadata in mp3s differently it
seems. The import assumes Album Artist is in frame TPE2 because I think
I'm right in saying that's where iTunes puts it, but other taggers may
store it differently.

Your scan errors seem to be because it's finding \volume1 rather than
\\volume1, I'm not sure why - but the debug log file (muso.log) should
give me a clue. This is in the folder that opens automatically when you
start muso in Debug mode.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Displaying radio now playing: WNYC

2009-01-12 Thread softsantear

So I listen to the WNYC2 stream a lot (located here:
http://www.wnyc.org/wnyc2/), but what gets me about it is that unlike
many .pls streams, artist and track info is not updated in the title
marquee.  

I'm not always near the PC, so if I hear an interesting song I have to
make a mad dash to the site to see what is, in fact, playing. 

I thought there might be some way to integrate this functionality into
the Duet player, but I'm not sure how to begin, and my instinct is that
it cannot be done.  

If you click on the left-hand pane on the WNYC site, under WNYC2: Now
playing, a javascript floating window pops up telling you the track
info.  In fact, there is even a Google gadget that provides similar
functionality
(http://partnerpage.google.com/ig/directory?url=www.wnyc.org%2Fwnyc2%2Fwhatson_gadget.py).
So obviously this information can be extracted, but I'm guessing that
something like js is well beyond the functionality on the player - is
this correct?  Is there a way to cobble this together through a hacked
rss feed, or something? Or will I have to settle for checking the site
and/or listening to the announcer between cuts?

Figured it was worth at least asking!  Thanks.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] CustomBrowse/MultiLibrary Play all not working?

2009-01-12 Thread milowg

I am using the Multi-Library/CustomBrowse plugin combo to seperate out
my music collections..

I have one issue that may be a bug, however..
When I click play on a song in an album that was found through the
multi-library menus, only that song is played. However, when I do this
through the default "Artists" menu, the whole album is added to the
playlist.

I am using a Duet Controller and I am hitting the play button, not the
Add button.

I have the "Play all" checkbox checked in all my menus. I thought that
this was what the checkbox was supposed to do (ie. play the rest of the
songs in the album when play is hit).

Is this a bug or do I have something configured improperly?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Random Albums for Genre

2009-01-12 Thread erland

There is no pre-defined template for it at the moment. However, it makes
sense to add the same option for random albums as currently is available
for random songs if you launch the Dynamic Playlist mixer from a genre.

The mixer is launched by holding play down for a while on the item or
by clicking the PL buttons in the web interface.

This will just launch a dynamic playlist of random albums within the
genre, it won't let you select which one to play it will start playing
the first it finds immediately. Is this what you want or do you want to
see a list of random albums to manually select one from ?

bpa, 

That's an excellent find, thank you.  I've browsed those plaintext
playlists before, and it completely slipped my mind.  I see that the
url http://www.wnyc.org/music/playlists/hd/current/ links to the
present date's playlist, so that really simplifies things.  Plus the
entries are subdivided by headers.

Looking through some sample plugins, though, it appears I lack the
technical prowess to write the perl parser element.  Still, I'm really
pleased to know that this is a possibility.  

I'll try to cannibalize the other scripts and test them to figure out
what does what.

Almost.  With the server suspended and the players on SqueezeNetwork
but turned "off" and displaying the clock, just turning a player "on"
using the remote doesn't generate a WOL, I'm sorry to say.  This is an
aspect of the SB3s firmware and is by design.  If you think about it,
how can the SB3 know when you want to just want to turn it on to play
content from SN (and not wake your server) vs. wanting to wake the
server?  Thus, the SB3 only issues a WOL packet when it has no
connection..either to the server or to SN.

But, to wake up your server and yank the players back from
SqueezeNetwork, you do have several choices:

1). If there are specific times of day that you want to the server to
be up and the players connected, you could do this:

Create a playlist using the attached, zipped silent mp3 file.  Set an
alarm for the player using that playlist.  With this method,
SrvrPowerCtrl will schedule server wakeup for the alarm, but, as the
alarm is silent, nobody gets annoyed.  Once the server is up,
SrvrPowerCtrl will drag the players back from SN.

-- or --

2). Fire off a WOL packet at the server from another device (e.g. a
laptop or a SBC).  Again, once the server is awake, SrvrPowerCtrl will
yank back the SN players.

-- or --

3).  Use one of the connected SN players:  from the "off" clock
display, itÂ’s 4 remote clicks to return to the local server and wol it:
1). "Power", 2). "Up" (to get to "Connect to SqueezeCenter", 3). "Right"
to make the connection, and finally 4).  "Power" again to issue the
WOL.

Please direct your paypal dollars to some worthy charitable cause.  My
personal reward starts on January 20th when I expect that this
permanent headache I've had for the past 8 years will finally start to
dissipate.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] New version of OtherPlayers for 7.3

2009-01-12 Thread max.spicer

I've been having a think about how best to implement syncing in
OtherPlayers and, at my wife's suggestion, have decided that it would
be best to change things around a bit.  At the moment, the first thing
you do is choose a player, and then choose the action you want to
perform with that player.  This doesn't really work with
synchronisation, as synchronisation deals with groups of players.  I
therefore think it would be better to start by choosing an action and
then go on to choose the player, or group of players.  For the
non-sync-related options, this change should have little effect - the
number of selections to, for example, grab a playlist would be the same
- Grab Playlist -> Player 1, as opposed to Player 1 -> Grab Playlist.

Having made this change, I then propose to remove the current Sync
option and replace it with three new options.  I can't think of good
names for these options at the moment, so I'm going to call them Sync
To, Sync With and Unsync for now.  So, you would have Grab Playlist,
Send Playlist, Power, Volume, Sync With, Sync To and Unsync.

Sync With will list all the current groups of synchronised players,
excluding any that the current player is already synced with.  It will
implement a sync where the current player joins the selected sync
group.  This means it will start playing what the other player(s) are
playing.  For example, if the current player is A, you could see B&C,
D, E&F.  Chosing to Sync With B&C would give you A&B&C, chosing to Sync
With D would give A&D.  If the current player is already synced with
other players, that synchronisation will first be stopped.  For
example, if the current player is A, and A is synced with D, chosing to
Sync With B&C would end up with A&B&C with D on its own.

Sync To will implement a sync in the opposite direction to Sync With -
the selected player will be added to the current player's sync group
and will play what the current player is playing.  If the selected
player is already synced to other players, that synchronisation will
first be stopped.  As a result, if you chose Sync To you will only see
individual players listed, not sync groups.  If A is the current player
and is currently synced to B&C, choosing to Sync To D will result in
A&B&C&D.  If D was previously synced to E, you'd go from A&B&C and D&E
to A&B&C&D and E.

Finally, Unsync will offer an option to cancel synchronisation with any
other player.  There will be an 'Unsync From All' option, and the option
to remove individual players from the current sync group: 'Release'.  So
if A is currently synced to B&C&D, you'd have "Unsync From All, Release
B, Release C".  Again, I need better words.

Some examples - the current player is always A.  Initially, A&B are
synced together and so are C&D.  Each of the examples follows on from
the previous one.

Initial state: A&B and C&D
Sync With C&D - drops sync with B, giving A&C&D and B
Sync With B - drops sync with C&D, giving A&B and C&D
Sync To C - breaks sync between C&D and syncs with C, giving A&B&C and
D
Sync To D - adds D, giving A&B&C&D
Release B - gives A&C&D and B
Release D - gives A&C and B and D
Sync With B - drops sync with C, giving A&B and C and D
Sync To C - adds C, giving A&B&C and D
Unsync from all - gives A, B&C and D

That's a lot to follow, but I hope it makes sense.  I think the actual
UI should be much easier to understand, but it does need better
wording.  What do people think?

Can you program the HTPC to send a CLI command to the SqueezeCenter
server whenever it requests content?  If so, then the HTCP can block
SrvrPowerCtrl from initiating any power actions until the HTPC issues
the clearblock CLI request.

There is no way to do it in the current version, the Controller

something I probably should change in a future version.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Random for Custom Tag

2009-01-12 Thread erland

The closest thing is the "Random for custom tag" SQL Playlist template,
but it currently can't be launched from a Custom Browse menu.

I'll add to the "todo list" to check if it would be possible to launch
this from a custom tag based Custom Browse menu or from the more
generic "Tags" (Dynamic Tags) menu.

I have the same issue; only get three days of forecast despite setting
the fdays value to more.  Done some debugging and proved that the 10
day forecast is being read and parsed correctly (as far as I can tell),
but all I get is a blank screen for all the extra days.

I'm using Weather.com identifier UKXX0115.

e.g. for $wetData{d6} these are the hash key/value pairs:
highF, 50
highC, 10
forecastIcon, 12
date, Jan 17
precip, 60%
lowF, 42
day, Sat
lowC, 6
condition, Rain

Hope you can help!

An awesome feature would be a menu that presents N (say, 10) random
albums and lets you add any of them to the playlist (and lets you
re-enter the menu for a new random selection). Kind of like how I would
go over to the CD shelf and look around at random places in the stacks
for CDs to play.

Is this possible with any of your plugins, Erland?

It can be done with the SQL Playlist plugin, but there is currently no
predefined template for it so you will have to edit the SQL manually. 

There is also a Random Albums menu template available for Custom Browse
that does this as long as you don't want it to continuously add new
albums and you don't want it to be restricted to a specific genre.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Classical Organ library scheme

2009-01-12 Thread losinj

Hi,

Does anyone have a library set up for classical organ music?  I guess
no two users would want their libraries set up in quite the same way,
but I'd be interested to know what approach to browsing was used and
which plugins.

My own thinking was to include geographic location in the browse
structure, and begin along the lines of these examples:

Classical:
-> Organ solo
--> Albums by Location
---> Country: 
> Location: 
->  (there could be >1 albums for a location)
--> 
--> Locations by Work
---> Composer: 
> Work: 
-> 
-->  (there could be >1 albums with the same work for a
location)
---> 
-> Organ + accompanist
-> Organ + orchestra
Non-Classical:
-> (as existing)

There don't appear to be Country or Location tags available. Is it
possible, with Custom Scan, to invent my own tag names, or would I need
to recycle some existing tags?  (SB is my only tag-aware device.)

P.S. As I'm at the "beginner" level, I'm also wondering if this can be
done.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Howto use a television remote control to control SB

2009-01-12 Thread erland

I'm not sure if this work, but it might be worth a try.

1. Enable logging on "player.ir" in SqueezeCenter
Settings/Advanced/Logging
2. Push a button on your remote
3. Look in the server log file found in SqueezeCenter
Settings/Advanced/Logging

If it works, you should see something like this in the log:

Code:


  [09-01-13 02:34:37.0354] Slim::Hardware::IR::lookupCodeBytes (459) c1a25aa5 
-> unknown
  [09-01-13 02:35:24.9370] Slim::Hardware::IR::lookupCodeBytes (459) c1a28877 
-> unknown
  


I believe the numbers you see in the log are IR codes that can be
mapped in a *.ir file in the "IR" directory inside the SqueezeCenter
installation.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Howto use a television remote control to control SB

2009-01-12 Thread peterw

If you can configure your remote to send JVC DVD codes, SqueezeCenter is
already configured to respond to those as well as the codes from
standard Squeezebox remote controls. That should be easier than
manually creating your own .ir file.

And if you configure it to send JVC codes, you can [relatively] easily
use my KidsPlay plugin to map a JVC code to a series of SqueezeCenter
commands/actions (while leaving the others to behave as normal).

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] New version of OtherPlayers for 7.3

2009-01-12 Thread Brian Ritchie

I agree; sounds promising, and fairly comprehensive!

Terminology is harder. For me, "sync with" has always been too
ambiguous, though I'm coming round to thinking of "A sync-with B" to
mean that A should pick up whatever B is playing. I suppose that if you
have "A sync-to B" (where B picks up A's playlist), then the other
direction could be "A sync-from B"; but "sync with" is 7.3's
nomenclature.  I like the word "release," though I guess "unsyc B"
(without the "from") is probably clear enough.  Heh, the opposite of
"release" could be "imprison" or even "enslave" (the latter would make
it clear that A is the master!)

So, if I'm listening to A, and want to sync what it's playing to both B
and C, then with the Controller on A, would I do something like this:

OtherPlayers -> SyncTo -> B ->
<- [to SyncTo player list] C ->

(Using "->" and "<-" for left/right arrows, followed by scrolls)? I
think that'd make sync'ing with multiple players pretty easy (perhaps
only choosing a Synchronizer pre-prepared sync group would be simpler).
(Probably don't even need that left arrow, if going right to select B
doesn't actually leave the list of players.)

Jezbo, could I suggest you add "album.jpg" to the list of names that
