[SlimDevices: Plugins] Strange ir-blaster behavior

2010-05-19 Thread bernt

Hi!

After upgrading to 5.6.1 everytime a new song starts the volume turns
down one step.

I have removed ir-blaster and configuration files and started from
scratch but the problem remains.

SBS 7.5.0 - r30476
SB3
JVC Receiver

Kind Regards
/Bernt

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] SlimNAS: How to move to another location?

2010-05-19 Thread Michael Herger
 May be a stupid question: how to shut down SBS? I didn't find any
 button or menu for it on the user interface of SBS.

Just uncheck the enabled button on the SlimNAS tab in the FreeNAS web UI.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spicefly SugarCube 2.5 - Taking MusicIP up a notch

2010-05-19 Thread cparker

Hi all,

Just a quick heads-up for those that may be new to Squeezebox or
MusicIP. SugarCube version 2.5 has been released with its main new
feature being integration with TrackStat.  

Overview below, further information can be found on the website,
including MusicIP installation guides.  (Obviously MusicIP needs to be
installed first!)

For coherence please use this thread for constructive feedback, feature
requests, support issues etc, and not any of the old threads.  

INSTALLATION IS VIA THE REPOSITORY LINK OR DIRECT LINK FROM THE
WEBSITE.
Cheers

OVERVIEW[/B]
SPICEFLY SUGARCUBE IS A PLUGIN WRITTEN TO ACHIEVE MY DESIRE FOR
SQUEEZEBOX AND MUSICIP TO WORK BETWEEN THEMSELVES AND PLAY MUSIC,
NONSTOP WITH NO HASSLE AND NO ANNOYING PLAYLISTS! SUGARCUBE USES THE
GREAT MUSICIP PRODUCT BUT HAS A NUMBER OF CUSTOM WRITTEN FUNCTIONS TO
TAKE IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL, ALLOWING YOU TO DRIFT THROUGH YOUR MUSIC
LIBRARY AND DISCOVER THOSE GREAT TRACKS YOU FORGOT YOU HAD, OFFERING
FAR GREATER FUNCTIONALITY THAN THE OFFICIAL SQUEEZEBOX MUSICIP PLUGIN.

*HOW IT WORKS*
JUST PICK A SINGLE TRACK, ARTIST OR GENRE TO PLAY FROM YOUR LIBRARY AND
THE JOURNEY BEGINS! WHILE THAT TRACK IS PLAYING, SUGARCUBE USES IT WITH
MUSICIP TO SELECT A TRACK THAT IS SIMILAR TO THE PLAYING TRACK (BASED
ON SPECIFIED CRITERIA). SUGARCUBE THEN TWEAKS THE RESULT FURTHER TO
QUEUE UP THE NEXT TRACK WHICH MATCHES YOUR CRITERIA.

ONCE THE FIRST TRACK ENDS, THE SECOND TRACK IS NOW YOUR SEED TRACK AND
THE PROCESS CONTINUES, ON AND ON!

YOU WILL FIND YOU DRIFT THROUGH YOUR MUSIC LIBRARY WITHOUT ALL THE
HASSLE OF PLAYLISTS OR LOTS OF KEY PRESSING AND YOU NEVER EXPERIENCE
THE SAME PLAYLIST.

[B]MAIN FEATURES LIST
* Seed by Song, Album, Artist, Genre, Recipe or Filter.

* Restrict Mixing to the Genre of the Seed Track

* Vary the Style and Variety of the mix on the fly from the player
or web interface.

* Schedule based Filter mixing, to enable changes in musical taste
throughout the day.

* Completely player based so SugarCube can be switched on/off and
run completely independently on multiple devices, this includes mix and
style. So each player can be playing completely different styles of
music at the same time.

* Sleep mode and Volume Fade to assist with a restful nights sleep.

* Replace Next Track in the Playlist menu for Jive based players,
if you don#8217;t like the upcoming track, simply replace it from the
playlist menu without having to stop the music.

* Utilises TrackStat (if installed) to enable greater control of
the music selection. Block tracks under a certain rating level. Prefer
tracks with a Low or High Playcount or Recently/Least Played and High
or Low Ratings. Ensure you dont always hear the same tracks.

* Custom written Weighting routines, to block tracks that
#8220;look#8221; similar to the current playing track. This feature
looks at the current playing track and compares it against the
recommended next track and analyses it to try and determine whether it
is the same track or a remix version of it. (MusicIP has a habit of
returning remix versions of the seed track as they are obviously very
similar.)

* Block a Genre. Make sure Christmas tracks dont play in June!

* Block Artist Repeating for a specified number of Tracks, to
ensure variety.

* Block a Specified Artist Option if you don#8217;t want to hear a
specified Artist.

* Display Coming up Next, showing the next track in the playlist.

* Will remember played tracks between sessions, ie. if you power
off and resume later.

* Dynamic timeout to the Web Interface Player preference loading
page, ie. if MIP is not running it will wait less time while drawing
the web page.

* Warning in the Web interface, if the player is part of a sync
group but is not the master. The master of a sync group drives the show
and therefore only its settings apply, this warns you that you are
wasting your time making changes when its a slave player.

* Auto Toggle of the Squeezebox Play Only Song / Play Directory
when SugarCube is Enabled/Disabled.

* Custom written encoding routines to improve resilience.

* Stay quiet and don#8217;t try to mix if the playing track is
.asx, rtmp, pandora, slacker, lastfm, live365, mediafly and Sound
Effects streaming content

* Technical View which is mainly for use on the SB3, it denotes
whether the current playing track has cover artwork embedded or folder
based and Replaygain Track/Album are set.

* Works completely independently of the Squeezebox official MusicIP
plugin, so does not require it to be setup or installed. This saves time
as you don#8217;t need a Squeezebox MusicIP rescan when updating your
library and enables the two environments to be separated.

Youtube using a special build of mplayer was tested by some beta
testers during the beta period, as I understood it worked fairly good
as long as the video had the same format as the Touch so it didn't have
to scale it. The scaling code wasn't optimized for the ARM processor so
it didn't work when it was required to scale the video due to
performance problems.

However, the main problem is that Squeezeplay have exclusive access to
the audio device, so you need to shutdown Squeezeplay to make it work.

It's probably possible to get around this but hardly unless someone
wants to dive into the SqueezePlay C-code or Logitech is interested in
doing it.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] SqueezeControl for Android announcement and support thread

2010-05-19 Thread baroquedub

A big thank you for this great app!

Also working well on HTC Desire with SqueezeServer Version: 7.5.0 -
r30464.
Operating system: Debian - EN - utf8
Platform Architecture: i686-linux
Perl Version: 5.10.1 - i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi
MySQL Version: 5.1.41-3ubuntu12

Four players all recognised and being controlled:
2x Squeezebox Classic
1x Duet Receiver
1x SqueezePlay

I've read through all the posts and would agree with the following
(plus a couple of thoughts of my own):


* 'tab at the side' browsing of long lists would be excellent

* a volume control like the Controller (for visual feedback)

* a preferences setting for where the files are downloaded

* (mentioned before) menu\save to phone saves the file with .null as
the extension. (although download after long press works fine) 

* better download notification - percentage ? More evident 'download
complete notification ?

* after keyboard search, closing the keyboard doesn't close the search
string overlay - so that the results are obscured. (I realise the back
button on the phone makes it disappear but it seems an unnecessary
additional button press)

* and the killer feature: streaming functionality on 3G (Yes please!)
Would all this need at the client end be to route incoming traffic to
the wifi router to the server IP (on Port 9000) ? If so why is it not
yet possible? Has anyone tried this and can give instruction?


I'm probably not a good enough programmer to get involved directly but
am more than happy to bug test, etc. Would be happy to rework some of
the UI graphic elements elements too. I'm not 100% convinced about the
green icons (but I guess that's down to personal taste!). Just say if
you need help with anything.

Thanks again. great work :)

Ian - don't know - there's no live comentaries now so don't know what it
looks like.  I don't think Bryan has this in iPlayerExtras so will need
to look at this - won't be for a little while I'm afraid.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: BBCiPlayer Plugin (UK only)

2010-05-19 Thread bpa

I looked at the live commentaries page earlier today - I think it would
have to be screen scraper as I couldn't find any RSS or similar feeds
that showed the commentaries. If screen scraping is done then I think
the mobile page (
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/mobile/cricket/default.stm ) would be the
starting point as it is simpler.

The feed that Extras could use just has old saved commentaries not
live.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Help with Music Info Title Switcher

2010-05-19 Thread pbroughton

Thanks again for your help.  

In playing around with options today, I could not get alternate info on
the screens where I wanted it, nor, actually, get rid of stuff I tried
out yesterday.  This on both Booms and Softsqueeze.  It seems that the
only item easily manipulated is the lower left item; the rest seem to
sometimes change/work or sometimes the new info when entered and
applied is ignored.

I think I will be sastified with 'defaults' for now.

thanks!

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Sync manager?

I'm looking for a way to always sync two players in the morning, no
matter whether I had them previously synced or not. I am running both
The Synchronizer and Sync Options plug ins. Is there any way to do

Maybe write a shell/batch script that uses CLI commands to re-sync the
players and schedule it (cron/Scheduled Tasks) to run every morning?
