However, looking at it the other way, when someone is totally confused, often by errors and problems that manifest themselves in somewhat inconsistent ways, it can actually be both useful, and a little therapeutic, to realise that others have also had very, very similar experiences; especially if those others have been able to make things work in the end. I agree with what you say about Logitech being primarily a hardware company, one that likes to move quickly from product to product. But I feel, and I think you do too at least to some degree, they have missed a rare opportunity with the squeezebox. I know I bang on about classical music support, but almost no-one does it well, although some products are appearing now, like Sonata. I realise that the vast majority of the market is actually interested in tracks, or songs (I really, really dislike the term 'songs'), ordered by Artist and often, but not always, independent of Album Artist, but that part of the market is being fought over by the world and his brother. The classical music server/player/streamer market, whilst a minority of the whole, is still huge and around for the long term, and Logitech could have taken a dominant position in it. In addition, I think many classical users use their Squeezebox's in good Hi-Fi systems, as well as with lesser kit around the house, and would regard the Squeezebox Touch as a remarkably cheap device. Ho-hum; thank heavens that LMS is still being supported (although I am not sure about the precise details), and that Erland has given us the tools to view things as we want. :) LMS 7.9 on VortexBox Midi, Xubuntu 14.04, FLACs 16-24 bit, 44.1-192kbps.

Since I did not previously use the long weather functionality, I'm not really sure how it worked previously, so this might require some additional tweaks. Also, I can't seem to get my SB3 or BOOM to show the longweather using the FFWD or RWND keys - again, I'm not really sure how it's supposed to work, and I really just populated the appropriate strings and arrays without modifying the logic for using this feature. One difference which is intentional is I don't implement the same localization for the long weather text, mainly because I was afraid that this might not work well with different languages. Instead, the weather strings provided are either in Fahrenheit + mi/hr or celsius + km/hr depending on whether your temperature preference is F or C (these strings are as provided by the weatherunderground queries). *This is really great.* I get (at 9AM) a long weatherforecast for tonight, tomorrow, tomorrow night, day after tomorrow and day after tomorrow night in celsius + km/h with weather, temperature and wind forecast - *in german language*!

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Looking for plugin which parses stream for sample rate/bits per sample
A bit of background would help here I'm sure. I have 3 Raspberry Pi units. One has a Wolfson audio card on it, and the other two have HiFiBerry DACs attached to them. I have a high quality audio source (capable of outputting 24/192/2ch analog audio) which I want to be able to pipe to the rest of my home, similar to a Sonos system. I wanted to do this using the RPi with the Wolfson card as a server which can pull this HQ audio stream in at 24/192/2ch and send it over the network to my 2 RPi units with the HiFiBerry DACs. The Wolfson card is capable of 24/192 recording/playback and the HiFiBerry DACs are capable of 24/192/2ch playback. After researching several solutions based on my requirements (playback sync, reliable stream, don't care too much about latency as long as it's within 5 seconds), I decided on using LMS on my Wolfson Pi with bpa's WaveInput plugin. Now, it appears that the plugin requires some modification if I want to allow this 24/192/2ch capability. As for what I want, I don't care whether the stream is sent as PCM or FLAC. As long as I get that 24/192/2ch playback at the sources. If I understand it, the format of the custom-convert.conf file in the WaveInput plugin needs to be written using a very specific format (including sections for PCM, mp3, and FLAC). However, if this can be modified to just send FLAC and I can skip this problem with PCM not containing format information in the headers, that would be great.

Include means that at least one of the selected tags has the be part

Exclude means that it's excluded if any of the selected tags is part
of the file.
To compare with genres, it's the typical Christmas + Pop problem. If
you have tagged a file with both Christmas and Pop and select Pop
as include, you will still get this album. If you select Christmas as
Exclude it means that all christmas music will be excluded independent
which other tags it contains.

Remove the MP3 because even though it can be made to work - why waste time working out the correct lame option settings. The flac command line to encode the stream has to have option telling flac that the input is pcm 192 24bit 2 ch (or whatever you are using) and then the output will have a header.

Think it's a great solution if you have an old mac doing nothing and already have LMS running somewhere. Thanks, Marco. I've build an OSX 10.4+ i386 squeezelite 1.6.5 on a 10.6 system for you to try. You'll find squeezelite-1.6.5.499-osx-i386.tar.gz on mediafire in the squeezelite/osx folder. You can also follow the i386 readme to install and run it at startup.

To compare with genres, it's the typical Christmas + Pop problem. If you have tagged a file with both Christmas and Pop and select Pop as include, you will still get this album. If you select Christmas as Exclude it means that all christmas music will be excluded independent which other tags it contains. Ah, I hadn't thought about multi tag tracks as I seem to only have one tag per track. I use tagrename which I think only allows one tag, but I may well have been using it too simply since I got it, quite some years ago. More research needed, though it was Christmas music that I have made my first file for and I had excluded everything except 'Christmas' and included only Christmas, seems now it's overkill but it works in my case!

This may be a bit off topic but there's such an active discussion of SDT going on that I can't help asking about it. I'm using Custom Clock Helper to define a skin for Custom Clock on my Touch. It works pretty well, showing current weather, short forecast, and sports scores for teams I'm interested in. But I'm still confused about what some of the options are. For example, the Forcast icon (sic) allows a period selection of one of C, 1, 2, 3, d1, ..., d10. I assume d1...d10 would give one forecast icons for day 1 through day 10. But what are the C and 1, 2, 3 for? Also, I'd like to have some simple text below the icon showing projected high and low for that forecast period. Is that possible?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Looking for plugin which parses stream for sample rate/bits per sample
If you wish to support downsampling - you should look at main convert.conf file to how to do downsampling using flac. Downsampling is not needed in my case; all of the players support 24/192/2ch. Sorry for the dumb question, but the audio source is only available in analogue format ? Other than that, would creating a source stream using (eg) vlc work ? that source stream could then be a radio feed fed back for LMS - if you are not sensitive to delay, that would probably work, I think Yes, the audio from my HQ audio sources is only available in analog format. While the streaming with vlc would also (hopefully) work too, I wouldn't be the only one using this solution, and I wanted to have a nice interface and an easy-to-control method as well as synchronization of the playback streams. I have a feeling that would be complex with that direct streaming method. Remove the PCM line as there is no easy way this is going to work. Remove the MP3 because even though it can be made to work - why waste time working out the correct lame option settings. After this suggestion, I wanted to make sure that whatever command I have in the custom-convert.conf file would be more or less usable from the command line. I did several tests with this, and ran into problems. I tested playback of the .flac files I created with mplayer, since arecord/aplay doesn't support flac files. I downloaded a 24/192/2ch flac test file from Linn Recordings to ensure that I could playback a 24/192/2ch file locally on my server unit, which I was able to do through mplayer with no problems. However, when I tried to create a line close to what I'd be using in the custom-convert.conf file using arecord -d0 -c2 -f S24_LE -r 192000 -traw -D hw:0 | flac -cs --endian=little --sign=signed --channels=2 --bps=24 --sample-rate=192000 --compression-level-0 - -o flac_raw24.flac, I simply got static with warped music underneath. When I change the bits per sample (in both the arecord portion and the flac portion) though, mplayer plays back the file fine. These two behaviors also occur if I change the -t field to wav. Changing the sample rate doesn't change the behavior. The mplayer states that the file is s32le format (which I thought might be a problem), but it also states that the working flac file from Linn is s32le. Also, I tried to simply record 24 bit and 16 bit audio to a wav file (not using the flac conversion) and play it back with mplayer. mplayer will sound the same as the 24 bit flac files I created (static, warped music), but when I play it through aplay, it plays fine. Does anyone know why the flac conversion is crapping out like this at 24 bits? The Wolfson card can definitely support 24/192/2ch capture/playback. I know this thread is running a bit off topic, but I feel like this is the last hurdle before a working solution. I've attached screenshots of all the flac conversions/wav captures/playbacks I attempted and the mplayer results when I play them. test192.flac is the Linn test file: 16968 16969 16970 16971 16972 Thanks for all the responses so far!

And afaik no ones has yet provided a low latency way of doing it so TV a sound would not be a really good idea , but terrestrial radio and other audio only sources :) 1. A plugin that is able to play from a netcat TCP/IP stream won't care where the stream comes from so the plugin is general purpose and source system agnostic. It is up to user to create the source in the case of RPI if recording audio from an external source then some extra hardware is needed. This RPI user has a Wolfson card which has both an analogue and digital input.This sort of plugin would have clean netcat interface and so user will never have to fiddle with LMS plugins or code. 2.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Rescanning and Multi-Library
LMS (7.9) has a habit of rescanning items if it sees they have changed. This behaviour should not have changed in 7.9 compared to 7.8. How is this being triggered? Does it discover those changes automatically (then disable auto scan)? Or when you BMF to a changed file? This causes it to sulk for a while before it's ready to use again. I thought there used to be a way of stopping it from rescanning, but I can't find it now. Settings/Advanced/Performance? There might be an option to enable/disable auto rescan. The problem this causes is, on my system, much worse. I have configured Custom Scan to kick in and rescan after LMS has done a rescan. If I don't have this option set I forget to do a custom scan when I really have added new stuff. Custom Scan takes hours to rescan which is not what I want to happen when just playing music since the system is unusable. What might have changed in 7.9 is a bug in older versions which did not correctly update the last changed flag. This was causing issues with eg. apps using a local cache. They wouldn't update they're caches after certain changes. Now if this is triggering CustomScan, then it's more of a side-effect to a bug fixed. But it should not be a new bug. Just something to be aware of as the developer of CustomScan (I've seen similar complaints wrt. to my SmartMix plugin). But to be sure let's do above checks for auto rescan and try to understand when this is being triggered on your system. Further, I have sometimes switched off my system not fully realising it was still doing a Custom Scan. The system then wakes up and does a full scan in the middle of the night, which is fine. However, what happens then is that Multi-Library seems to have reset the value for the Standard Library (from 1 to 6 or 7) which means my non-Classical stuff cannot be found. I have to go into the database and change the value back to 1, and then all is well. That sounds like something you should report to Erland. -- Michael ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Rescanning and Multi-Library
I wonder if this bug is still not fixed and could cause this ?

Not sure if this might have been fixed already ?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Rescanning and Multi-Library
I wonder if this bug is still not fixed and could cause this ? http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=17274 Not sure if this might have been fixed already ? That's a new one to me. But I'm still not sure why there would even be a scan without the user triggering it. The rescan done event you mentioned might indeed be called more often than before (due/thanks to the bug fix I mentioned). But not without a scan being run. Which leads us back to the aforementioned question. -- Michael ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
