Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Qobuz.com streaming plugin

2014-02-08 Thread Michael Herger

My NAS is quite new (Synology 214 with CPU Marvell Armada XP @ 1,06 GHz
dual core) and should not be overflowed so easily ?


I plan to change the search further: until now a search for a keyword 
would have returned results for all of artists, albums and tracks, even 
if you only wanted the artists. In the next release only the category 
you want will be searched. This should speed up processing on Qobuz' 
backend as well as in LMS.



Anyway i made the test after upgrading to last plugin and results are
still very slow to arrive... (Tested with abba)...


But it no longer times out, does it?

It is not really crashing, after a while i finish to get the result and
get back the hand on my ipeng application.

On other searching services it is true that first you have to select the
category. It  should help to reduce the CPU charge.

Anyway best way to address this issue is on Qobuz side in order to make
their server send relevant answer and most of all filter the empty
answers ! (No way to check that and remove them ?)
just made the comparison with Deezer which has searching service
perfectly working.

Problem in searching seems bigger in classical music than in pop?
When,for instance, I search Tchaikovski about 8 albums are showed.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spotify Premium Plugin (Beta)

2014-02-08 Thread fraserm

Hey guys

I`m looking to replace my central PC with a NAS instead, but I really
want to make sure that Triodes Spotify plugin works on the embedded
Logitech Media Server software before risking purchase!

I`m looking at either:

Synology DS214+ (Marvell Armada XP CPU / Dual Core 1.33Ghz / 1GB DDR3)
Netgear Readynas RN31200 / IntelĀ® Atom 2.1GHz dual core / 2GB)
Netgear Readynas RN10200 / MarvellĀ® Armada 370 1.2GHz / 512MB)

Can anyone help me understand if Triodes awesome plugin works on any or
all of the above models?

Thanks!
Fraser

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: ShairTunes Plugin

2014-02-08 Thread MalcolmBarr

I would dearly love to have the ability to stream audio direct from my
Ipad to squeezebox (I have three duets and a classic). I am particularly
interested in being able to stream the audio from Google Play from the
Ipad - I think I am right in thinking that once the Ipad sees an airplay
compatible receiver on the network, you can route the output from any
app to that. Please tell me if that is wrong! 

I am running LMS 7.8 on a QNAP TS-869L, and am very unfamiliar with
Linux. Would it be possible for someone to write a step by step on how
to install this plug-in which could be followed even by utter Linux
noobs like me?

As it stands, my attempt to follow what I have read here has been foiled
at the first hurdle. When I try and add the repo linked to by StuartUSA
in post 17 of this thread to LMS, I get the following error message:

Bad repository
http://raw2.github.com/StuartUSA/shairport_plugin/master/public.xml -
Redirection limit exceeded - can anyone help me with that?

If I can get to the point where the plug-in is installed, I understand
that I then need to compile the helper app, on Linux. To do that, I
need to SSH into the Qnap box linux inetrface and then simply type the
commands as shown at the bottom of
https://github.com/StuartUSA/shairport_plugin. Please tell me if this is
wrong.

Apologies for the very basic questions, and thanks to all who have put
work in to developing this plug in so far.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Spotify [Triode] problem: Frequent bufferunderruns

2014-02-08 Thread Stevie P

I've been having this problem too on Ubuntu 12.04, but I think I've got
to the bottom of it.

Using the ss utility with -m shows that the write buffer is limited to
68KB. The Linux stack is measuring the link speed at 2-4Mbps, which
should be enough. However, with roughly 60-70ms RTT latency (it's over
wireless), and with such a small buffer, keeping a steady flow of data
to the Squeezebox requires the buffer to be constantly topped up. This
is not possible in spotifyd, because the libspotify code tends to block
for roughly 190ms at a time in the same thread that sends data to the
Squeezebox. Consequently, the slightest hiccup in the wireless link will
cause the drop-outs we've been experiencing.

I've tried playing about with the TCP buffer tunings, but it now appears
that this won't work because spotifyd calls setsockopt to set the send
buffer size to 32768 (which the Linux stack doubles to 65536 to cover
overheads) and this effectively switches off the write buffer autotuning
processing. 

As an experiment I've made the following changes.

1. Changed the net.core.wmem_max setting from the rather low default
value of 131072 to 12582912.
2. Modified spotifyd64 with hexedit to call setsockopt with a value of
8388608.

The result of these changes is that the plugin is now quite happily
streaming to the Squeezebox without drop-outs.

Three potential solutions spring to mind.

1. Move the send processing to another thread. (Complex, but requires no
network buffer tuning whatsoever)
2. Specify a much larger buffer size in setsockopt (Easy, requires only
net.core.wmem_max to be changed)
3. Don't call setsockopt at all (Easy, but requires user changes of
net.core.wmem_max and net.ipv4.tcp_wmem.

Given the asymmetrical profile of data being sent to and from the
Squeezebox, it might also help to call setsockopt to set TCP_NODELAY on
the socket in order to disable the Nagle algorithm if that isn't already
done.

I hope this is of some use.

Hi - I can definitely avoid calling setsockopt - it is there to make the
buffer larger than default on windows and old linux version which
default to smaller versions.  

As you have diagnosed spotifyd is currently using the tcp send buffer as
the main buffer for the stream.  It tries to write to it whenever the
callback from libspotify calls it with data and if it can't write to the
socket then buffers it.  However it won't try to write again until
libspotify calls it again.  This clearly means that it requires regular
calls from libspotify and also a large enough buffer and in the tcp send
buffer.  This was all working ok until something changed in linux...

Anyway let me look at whether another thread would be trivial or whether
buffer tuning and not calling setsockopt is the easiest thing to do.

Can you check your server.log file for any errors?

I had to install the libio-socket-ssl-perl package on my dockstar before
I could add the repo.

The error in my server.log was

Code:

If you have the same error you'll need to find a package for your NAS
which provides the io:socket:ssl perl module.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Whitebear, DNLA issues with Arcam AVR360

2014-02-08 Thread crystalgipsy

Hi I just just decided to switch to Whitebear as the dnla front end for
my squeezebox as I heard its more robust then the built in one. I am
pushing files direct to my amp via DNLA as I can have better control
over the audio that way. I have whitebear on my Server, SB Touch, Bubble
UPNP as a controller on my phone and an Arcam AVR360 amp. I am having a
few issues with it not playing certain file types though via DNLA. It
wont play any FLAC files that I have at all it just seems to sit there
and do nothing. I can see its putting out 3 streams LPCM, FLAC and MP3,
but it just seems to hang on the LPCM. My amp had no issues playing
these files through the Official SB DNLA as raw FLAC or via SB Touch as
digital audio. Any ideas is this Whitebear, Bubble UPNP, SBS or
something else?

Also is it possible to stream the Triode spotify plugin via DNLA. It
comes up when browsing the library and you can search songs but wont
play. 

Any help appreciated.
