[SlimDevices: Plugins] SuperDateTime and Squeezebox Touch
Hi all, I bought a Squeezbox Touch only to run the fantastic SuperDateTime... ok, just kidding. The best wife of all wives likes SuperDateTime very much (mee too!). It runs on our 8 Booms and used to run on my first Squeezebox, a model 2. Now I replaced the old Squeezebox 2 by a Squeezebox Touch. Unfortunately I cannot find the place to set SuperDateTime as Power-Off-Screensaver.

A simple request would be to show the origin of the lyrics displayed for the Now Playing track. In iPeng I can see if there are no lyrics embedded in the music file but iPeng found lyrics on the internet, and then I can try to find the lyrics and embed them (since that is the way I like to have it). A more complicated request would be to have muso automatically detect changes to the SBS database and doing a resync. More links to the artist, album and track (Wikipedia, AMG, MusicBrainz and Discogs) could also be useful (maybe even a browser window/tab within muso). And - although muso is excellent as a SBS front end on a Windows PC already as is - I have many more ideas so just keep asking if you have too much spare time. :) (How about an Artists "cover wall", like with Albums but with artist images from LastFM? That non SBS related idea I got from from JRiver Media Center.) -- vagskal 2 x SB3 (wired), Receiver (wired), Boom (wireless), Controller, iPeng on iPhone 4 & iPad, muso on remote computer running Win 7 64-bit | 7.6.2 (r33593) on Win XP vagskal's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20778 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91575 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] SuperDateTime and Squeezebox Touch
If you want to use it as a screen saver you need Custom Clock applet. Through Custom Clock applet installed on the Touch and SDT installed in Squeezebox Server, you will be able to configure a SDT based style in the Custom Clock settings page under Settings/Screen/Screensavers on the Touch. If you like to configure the layout of the style, you probably want to also install Custom Clock Helper plugin in Squeezebox Server. Custom Clock requires License Manager applet to be installed and you need a commercial license to fully utilize its features. -- erland Erland Isaksson ('My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info)) (Developer of 'many plugins/applets (both free and commercial)' (http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/User:Erland).

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spotify Premium Plugin (Beta)
When I recently tried to upgrade to LMS 7.0, I had problems with Triodes Spotify it disappeared from the user menus, rendering it inaccessible. However, it was offered as an upgrade via the web interface to 2.2.1. Accepting the upgrade made it accessible again, but it didnt work. It appeared that the helper app wasnt running. A full removal and reinstall of LMS / Spotify still gave the same result (helper app not running). In desperation, I did a full system restore on the Mac (using Time Machine) to be sure I had got rid of LMS and to revert to the previous Spotify version. Sadly this produced exactly the same symptoms as the LMS upgrade (had to upgrade to Spotify 2.2.1 before I could use Spotify, then the helper app again refused to run). So much for system restore! The helper app log produces pairs of error reports as shown below. Ive tried fiddling with permissions and havent noticed any improvement. Id be really grateful for any ideas of how to get Spotify running again. It would probably be handy to know where the Trace file mentioned in the log should appear. Hardware is Mac Mini (G4 PPC, Not Intel) OS 10.5.8. It had previously been running Triodes Spotify OK since May.

Thanks Pippin! Sometimes your SbS/LMS simply loses its connection to the internet even though pc still has connection. Not sure how or why. But first response to a SbS oddity should be a pc reboot. 2nd response should be reboot of everything including router.
