However, this is the one thing that the iPeng _plugin_ would probably give you. It doesn't have support for streaming either, but it can play back songs form your SC library. Only works for .mp3 and .aac files and it's kind of a kludge. You have to disable your iPhone's screen saver and you will not be able to manually skip to another track without going back to the playlist and things like that - the QuickTime interface in Safari is really limited. You can read about how it works here: http://penguinlovesmusic.de/2008/07/ And to install it with a recent (>7.3.0) version of SC just use (in SC) Settings->Advanced->Extension downloader. > > When I tried that this evening I found that even though I was accessing > the song on the I-touch, it was playing on the SBC through it's small > speaker > Yes. Technically the SBC has two different applications on it, one is the control application and one is the player.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: WaveInput for Linux
I think I made a mistake in the syntax. You should also try hw:1,0 first - there are a few variations on Alsa names depending on the app. Depending on your linux distro - the user id which runs Squeezecenter may need to belong to group "audio" (or whatever names is on your systems) in order to access audio hardware - otherwise silence. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49584 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: WaveInput for Linux
On many Linux system - groups are managed through the /etc/group file which has a line per group. The name of the group is at the start and the users in the group are at the end. You can edit file directly (careful you don't corrupt it) or typically use commands such as useradd, userdel and usermod Before messing with audio group - make sure as root you identify the correct Alsa device and can record from it and confirm by playing back recording. To record a 30 secs wav format into file testrec.wav from Alsa hw:1,0 - use the following arecord -d 30 -D hw:1,0 -t wav -f cd testrec.wav If you have Audacity - set some music playing and then using Audacity click record - when the volume levels in the channels move sync to music - you have found the right device. Use Preferences to change record source to deifferent devices - use the Alsa devices and not OSS or Pulse which may be offered. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49584 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Beta version of SvrPowerControl
Gordon, I just installed RC6 on my SC that runs on a virtual machine in a poweredge (now, that's a guzzler.) All went extremely well, except 1 thing: I had previously messed-up some plugins prefs files trying to learn how to write a plugin myself. I had victimized the prefs file for srvPowerControl, and after installing RC6 I still couldn't see the new preferences page. After some time I finally had the idea to grep the /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/templates directory on the xubuntu machine, and found the culprit. I nuked the cache, and there was the correct prefs page, at last. Perhaps you want to add a note about this, in case ? I admit I had been seriously fiddling with the install before reaching this state, casual users won't. Congrats on that new page and the Help page. It's great and I'll try to contribute a translation. As I said, now my main server is virtual and runs 24/7. My main system is an SB3 and a Rotel amp that has IR input. So I've been using IR Blaster for a while. When in standby, this amp draws virtually no electricity; it reads 0W on my meter. So I am using standby on the amp, through IR Blaster, rather than doing a complete power off. This way I can also use wake-up alarms on the SB3, that makes for a very loud alarm clock. My use-case has changed much. The only powersaving feature I can seek is powering down the amp. Since the plugin checks for player idleness, I wanted the plugin to power off the player, hence powering off the amp, and do nothing else (since the server is virtual and the real server won't sleep.) I found out doing this is not obvious, although very easy. This is what I did: - uncheck all options. Everything. - check "Power-off players when shutting down" - check "Monitor idle players", and selected the "Shutdown server" action - In "Shutdown Command (include full pathand cmd line args):" I entered: "/bin/true". Now, I have srvPowerControl shutdown my player when inactive for some time, which powers-off the amp thanks to IR Blaster. The server and SC stay up, as expected. Yet another use case... sorry. (and thanks one more time for such a great plugin.) -- epoch1970 epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Title Switcher for switching texts on player display
Erland, thanks for a great plugin. I'm having a bit of trouble though. Using this string works great: ALBUMARTIST=ALBUM:10,ARTIST:5 But when I change it to: ALBUMARTIST=ALBUM:3,ARTIST:3 the old information persists. The ALBUM still displays for 10 seconds and the ARTIST for 5. I've restarted SC and tried other strings such as ALBUMARTIST=ALBUM:10,ARTIST:5,TITLE:3 just to check and still get no change. Any ideas? I'm running SC 7.2.1 under Ubuntu 8.10. Do I need 7.3.x? (I downgraded from 7.3.x because of lack of support for the XMRadio plugin.)

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Alien BBC-M-PLayer doesn't load (Windows XP)
Trying to load up new silent mini-PC with Alien BBC. However m-player doesn't install correctly -I can see that the extension installer is trying to download it. Further investigation in 'Settings- Advanced' shows 'bad md5 checksum' . I have tried figuring out a manual download per the Alien BBC website, but I find the websites I am directed to either incompehensible or the links no longer in existence. I don't think I am doing anything unusual so up to date help would be very much appreciated. I do have a successful Alien BBC set-up working on my power hungry noisy laptop -installed back in 2007, but updated since.
