Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Solution: TrackStat data to iTunes export on Mac OS
I am having the same issues as both slope_rabbit (no relation =)) and netchord. Using your tip to netchord, I was able to modify the script so that I can choose the TrackStat_iTunes_Complete.txt file. Yes, it was grayed out and unable before I modified the script. The more pressing issue, actually, is the date and time issue that slope_rabbit had. The first thing I tried was changing my Date Time to Germany, but that didn't help so I set the Date Time back to United States. The second thing I tried was using the debugger tool provided on 2010-12-13 12:08. When I run that I get this message (I had to type it and this is exactly how it appears, except I removed line breaks): There has been an error: Failed conversion of ''20110406100221 using format ''%Y%m%d%H%M%S date: illegal time format usage: date [-jnu][-d dst][-r seconds][-t west][-v [+|-]val[ymwdHMS]]...[-f fmt date | [[[mm]dd]HH]MM[[cc]yy][.ss]] [+format] A couple things to note: 1. I assume some developer other than you was responsible for the message. I specifically used '' (two apostrophe) characters instead of (quotation marks) because that is what appears in the error message. I presume it's benign, but wanted to mention it. 2. Notice how the format was %Y%m%d%H%M%S (using an uppercase %Y), but the usage seems to indicate that it should be lowercase. I'm not a script writer, so I'm not certain it's a mistake. Just mentioning it. Finally, this is the entry (the first one) in my TrackStat_iTunes_Complete.txt file: Offshore|||/Volumes/MediaFiles/mp3_only/flac/Chicane/The Best of Chicane 1996-2008/2008 ¬ 1-1 ¬ Offshore.mp3|played|20110406100221|51|1|1316128156 Any insight or thoughts?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
Hello Pippin,
Since early-adopting iOS5 yesterday, both my iPhone's iPeng and my
iPad's iPengHD are crashing like crazy. When I go to switch players or
stations, I get an error like this:
Unexpected response '{
channel =
/ (a bunch of crazy letters and numbers)/slim/request;
error = invalid request: [\00:04:20:22:83:a2\,
[/music_services\, 0, 100]] Unknown in dispat#8230;.
On the iPad, the error is quickly followed by a crash (it quits and
goes back to the home screen). On the iPhone, the crash doesn't tend
to happen until I touch something, anything. I used to get this error
with some regularity, but previously I could just ignore it with no
crashes. Now I get the error constantly and it crashes the program
to the point of being unusable.
Might this be something stupid I'm doing, or could it be an iOS5
compatibility you haven't ironed out yet?
Further info: I only use Pandora, and I only use mysqueezebox.com's
server (as opposed to a local computer with the Squeezebox Server
software). And I am using the most recent version of both iPengs.
Thanks for your time. I've loved iPeng for a couple years now : )

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: New versions of erlands plugins
Hi Erland Thanks for your many nice plug-ins. They really enhance SB functionality in a major way. I have a wish/question which possibly is a request for a new feature: I often find myself wanting to listen to a playlist I put together a couple of days ago (which I, at that time, couldn't be asked to create a named playlist for). So far I know of no plugin that provides playlist history i.e. a list of recently used active playlists. I am not necessarily talking about a history of named/defined playlist, but merely a list of playlists that have been active on a given player/server recently. I posted a similar question in the the thread about Playlist Manager and got the reply that SQL-playlist and TrackStat maybe could do the trick. Perhaps I am not good enough in writing SQL, but I would think it is not possible, however I guess you can come very close to what I want. (The last played album also comes pretty close). Another situation where playlist history would be useful is when you have put together a playlist and then a friend (or myself) accidentally presses play on a single song which with my setup replaces the playlist by one song. I am positive that everyone has done this at least once. AFAIK there is no way to get the playlist back outside of re-entering it. Am I the only one who would find this useful?

It's the Spotify plugin which replaces the button and I think you can't shuffle Spotify playlists.

Have you updated to the latest iPeng release (1.4.2 or 1.2.2 on
iPad)?
That error message usually means you have switched to
MySqueezebox.com from a no longer existing Squeezebox Server.
What exactly do you mean by go to switch player and go to switch
stations? Switch player is a plugin only available when you use the
Squeezebox Server and I don't exactly understand what you mean by
switch stations.
I just tried Pandora on iOS 5 with MySB and it works fine for me.

Well, if you can't connect your iPod to WiFi then that's the problem.
iPeng needs WiFi to communicate to your server. You need to somehow
get your WiFi connection of you iPod fixed.
What are the iPod's WiFi settings showing?

No, since you have:

The first parameter returned from the SQL will be put in the {comment}

Just for information, the second parameter (comments.value) will be the

Yes, but it currently only phone home under the following
circumstances:
- Someone has manually modified the License Manager configuration
files
- A new version of License Manager plugin/applet has been downloaded
- The existing license has expired, if the existing license have
expired it will call home once a day or when you click the Apply/Save
Settings button at the bottom of the SBS Settings/Advanced/License
Manager screen.
So basically, if my server goes down it means that:
- You can't upgrade License Manager plugin as it's published on the
same physical server, so that reason is not likely.
- If your license has expired my server has to be up for it to be
renewed. Of course, my server also has to be up for you to be able to
purchase a renewed license.
And, if I for some reason would decide that I can no longer keep the
server available or can't maintain/support the plugins/applets at a
decent level, my intention is to release new versions of the
plugins/applets with the license checks removed.

So far I know of no plugin that provides playlist history i.e. a list

Just to confirm your suspicions, TrackStat and also peterw's PlayLog
plugin keeps track of the history of played tracks but none of them
keep track of the history of played playlists as far as I know.
Theoretically, it would be possible to create a list of the playlists
which the songs played is part of based on the TrackStat data, but
since a song can be part of multiple playlists I suspect this isn't
exactly what you want.
Another question is if it's important to keep track of how the playlist
looked like when it was played or if it's only important to keep track
of which playlist that was played while its content would be the latest
version of the playlist ?
For example, if I have Playlist 1, play it and then a bit later add a
new track to it and play it again. Do you only need this to be
represented as if Playlist 1 has been played twice or do you also
need to see how it looked like each time it was played for it to be
useful ?
A third question, what about the scenario where you play Playlist 1,
stop the music and do something else and then later play Playlist 1
again, should this be represented as two entries in the history or just
a single entry ?
