I tried something like this based on a previous post by you at
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?102289-m3u8-radio-streaming
but it did not work. I had not noticed that the mime type in the
response from the server was application/x-mpegurl rather than
application/vnd.apple.mpegurl. I'll give this another go with the
updated mime type.

The MIME type will probably vary depending on broadcaster's servers setup so I expect other value will be needed for other stations. I found ffmpeg plays station quicker than vlc and also shutdowns properly after playing. vlc needs a special shell script to ensure process is killed when playing is stopped. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

I just tried this (add all three components in /etc/squeezeboxserver) -
nothing so far but I'll keep trying. Do I need to do anything special
on ubuntu 14.04 to ensure ffmpeg is in place? It wasn't installed, so I
have done so, but I still get nothing.
To be clear, I have tried adding the url as a favourite, and also via
'tune in url', but neither works. There's nothing on the log. Is there
a specific log entry I could turn on?

In general that sounds reasonable. Nevertheless, considering it really violates their policies, roundabout a few hundreds if not thousands of apps have the same issue.

The validity of the complaint is arguable, the use of covers in the screenshots would probably fall under Fair Use. My main complaint is that the first email never really specific pointed out what elements were violating the policy. I actually did get a warning email about a week before the removal, but the wording was just as vague. At that point I had recently published an update and I thought that maybe something in the what's new section was violating the policy (which I changed). It never even crossed my mind that it was the screenshots. Then after they finally pointed out that it was the album covers, I was never given the chance to change the screenshots. It won't be black squares, it'll be the blank disc icon that Squeezebox uses. A lot of the shots have so many covers that it will be a pain to find enough CC-licensed art to fill all the spaces, plus the photoshop work to put them in there. I probably will do that in the future, but for now I just want to get it republished. The music titles should be fine, I don't think you can have a copyright on phrases with just a few words and it's doubtful that song titles are trademarked. -- Squeezebox apps for webOS, Android and Windows Phone, http://www.angrygoatapps.com wt0's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18760 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96757 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Soundcloud plugin for squeezeserver
Hi, This was raised on the previous page by mkkyah and I have the same... from any list of tracks like the new / hottest tracks or a search which ever track I select it is always the first one that plays. I use Orange Squeeze and contacted the developer of that software to see if he could fix it. He confirmed the issue and said that it looks like it is the plugin as there is the same behavior with SB Touch and SqueezePlay controllers and suspected that it is "an issue with how the the SqueezeCloud plugin interfaces with Jive controllers". Interestingly the web interface works fine but the dev suggested this uses a different set of APIs. It would be fantastic if this issue could be looked at as it really spoils an excellent plugin!

Fair enough, but not really necessary in my personal view. Regarding the flagging of Google Play Music: I can fully understand the motivation behind this. And (stepping aside from the fact that the situation for you is anything but a laugh) it is even a funny/creative way to react on your app issue. Maybe it would even apply to be a parallel case to your app. For the Google Play All-Inclusive service, of course, they explicitly have licensed all the content with the record companies. But for playing the user's local music, they of course cannot guarantee that it is properly licensed (and especially not by them as the app owner). Although I have to admit I never read the terms and conditions in detail. If the whole fuss was about the advertising images only, then it's not the same as they should only have artwork of the music that they have anyway licensed for their service in there. Anyway, would be nice to see some "real" discussion triggered by this, but I assume that it will just plainly be ignored in a similar manor as they didn't go into an argument with you on your issue...

Thanks very much indeed! :) I think the other thing I had to do was ensure I had 'proxied streaming' set in the settings/player/audio configuration. ffmpeg reports low bit rates (~120kb) for the streams I quoted, eg: Code: Input #0, hls,applehttp, from 'http://a.files.bbci.co.uk/media/live/manifesto/audio/simulcast/hls/uk/high/ak/bbc_radio_three.m3u8': Duration: 00:00:00.01, start: 91750.034844, bitrate: 130 kb/s Program 0 Metadata: variant_bitrate : 135680 Stream #0:0: Audio: aac ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 130 kb/s Metadata: variant_bitrate : 135680 So how do I get to a higher bit rate stream? A different URL? I also had to use my real Touch or squeezelite for a change. I have been using squeeze2upnp (a way of playing LMS via UPnP devices) but something isn't quite right there for this stream and pcm - I just got noise (very loud). No matter that's for another time and thread. If the listen-again software can be sorted we will have a complete solution, only days after the BBC screwed it all up. Both my Internet Radiso use Vtuner and show no signs of ever being updated to satisfy the Beeb's new streaming methods, but they both support UPnP, so I'll be able to use LMS everywhere I need it.

Michael - in his BBC blog entry last night, Jim Simmons said he'd booked a call with Logitech this morning. Are we likely to her anything from that? Thanks for asking :-). I wanted to post, but was waiting for some posting to reply to. Yes, we just had a call. And we're looking into ways to provide access to the BBC streams using SB/SR. I'm about to investigate which stream options of theirs are feasible for us. HLS is most likely out of question, as our players don't support it. But there's not much I can say yet. TBH: I didn't follow the issue from the beginning. I've seen that somebody posted about Shoutcast streams, which would suit our needs better.

The problem is that the BBC is switching off all SHOUTcast streams (bar temporarily live radio with MP3), so we'll need to find ways of handling HLS or HDS. Thankfully with LMS we have ways of doing this, unlike other internet radio systems - there's a huge fuss over on the BBC blog by Jim Simmons.

That means they are poorer quality than the previous feeds and don't contain certain programs where there are rights issues which would mainly be sports programs on BBC 5 live and BBC 5 live Sports Extra). 1 other issue with the MP3 streams is that they seem to have a scheduled end date in 2 or so years time so they are not a long term solution. Regarding the actual streams there are 2 separate issues here. The previous streams were compatible and handled by the squeezebox players so were available both through LMS and MSB... While we know the new feeds may not be suitable to be transformed by the squeezebox players themselves surely one of the real advantages of the LMS system is that it can process the feeds and transform into squeezebox playable Flac files. As such those of us in the UK would really like access to the new AAC feeds even though we know we may lose the ability to access them through MSB eek's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31416 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

@bpa: Thank you so much for producing a proof-of-concept plug-in so quickly - A welcome spark of hope! :) I have not tried the plug-in (tbh waiting for it to settle a bit!) and was wondering if: 1. Is your plugin just a 'test', then passing over to mherger to update the "BBC iPlayer" plugin later on? 2. Is all this focussed at just live radio HLS streams, or is 'Listen Again' in with a chance of working again on Squeezeboxes with some new flavour of the "BBC iPlayer" plugin? Hoping I can help out with some testing of a future "BBC iPlayer" plugin that does 'Listen Again' via HLS :) Btw, still happy to make a PayPal donation to those cutting code off their own backs - bpa, mherger etc. do you want to put up a thread for this?

I understand that your players do not support HLS natively, but it should be possible to transcode the streams using a Server plugin - in which case you need to get in touch with one of the two masters of the art, Triode and BPA. You could then forward them the URLs for the new streams and they can build the appropriate plugin(s) if they feel so inclined! The problem with the Shoutcast streams is the BBC have turned off AAC and left us only with the low bit rate 128kbps MP3 "international" streams. These are OK for low-fi devices but a sharp reduction in quality compared to the AAC streams that went before, particularly the 320kbps Radio 3 stream. Also, being international, the Radio 5 sports channel cannot now play many live commentaries because of copyright issues. They have also stated that the Shoutcast streams will only be available for "1 or 2 years" at which point they will be shut off too. As it stands your SqueezeBox players are practically the only ones with the capability to be adapted (via LMS) to play the new HLS streams. Owners of Sonos, Reciva, Roberts and Cambridge Audio - among others - cannot do this because they lack a server.

iPeng shows a different artist than the controller? That's indeed weird. iPeng shows whatever the server delivers as "track artist" except for the NowPlaing screen where it shows _all_ artist roles. Which server version do you use? I know there was a bug in some versions where the server picked a random role if there was more than one. 7.8.1 should have that fixed. --- learn more about iPeng, the iPhone and iPad remote for the Squeezebox and Logitech UE Smart Radio as well as iPeng Party, the free Party-App, at penguinlovesmusic.com *New: iPeng 8, the Universal App for iOS 7 and iOS 8* pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: BBCiPlayer Plugin (UK only)
Hi bpa, Huge thanks for this proof of concept. Some work to do still of course to integrate with Triode's BBCiPlayer plugin, get station name and now playing into the display, etc., but with your HLS plugin we're back up and listening, which is very much the main thing :) So, after installing ffmpeg on my Raspberry Pi (Version 1 model B 512MB), then installing your PlayHLS plug-in, I am able to play the HLS streams no problem on my squeezebox, load average around 0.4, using some old version of raspbian from a while ago! Completely happy with that. The only missing link now (from my perspective) is a URI for the HLS AAC 320kb/s Radio 3 stream (and, one hopes, same quality for all other stations, now that this new-generation infrastructure which will make everything so much better is in place). So much for hidden stream URIs. What were they thinking? Props also at this point to the original software architects at Slim Devices, whoever they may be, for building the server in such a way that this is possible.

It seems likely this is the best that is going to be available outside the UK. For UK users though what most of us are talking about on this thread is updating the iPlayer plugin to handle the AAC streams using HLS and/or HDS and eventually MPEG-DASH. This would be on a local LMS as a priority, I think things like iPlayer applet on the Touch and Radio would be a lower priority to look at later.

Logitech have indeed been pretty decent about continuing support for mysqueezebox.com (and presumably they also host these forums). Probably didn't want the bad publicity of people saying "I bought a Logitech radio 8 months ago and it's stopped working", which is indeed in sharp contrast to the current BBC debacle. My mum asked if she should buy an Internet radio based on the BBC encouraging takeup of them for Radio3 in HD.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: BBCiPlayer Plugin (UK only)
I just had a reply to my complaint to the BBC, as below. It basically says 'Go away - we are ignoring you'. - Thank you for contacting the BBC iPlayer support team. I understand you are no longer able to listen to BBC Radio streams on your internet radio. We have changed the way we stream radio so we'll no longer be providing Window Media Audio and AAC audio streams. We thought long and hard before deciding on the direction for Audio Factory. The system replaces, not just the online streaming systems for national radio, but also the systems for the nations and local radio. As such we had to make choices around standardisation. We have decided to use the http streaming formats HLS, HDS and DASH. We began communicating our plans to internet radio manufacturers over 12 months ago. HLS streams are now available to internet radios and aggregators that wish to use them. We have been working with various manufacturers to help them develop their products where possible to support our new streams. We are actively working on delivering our audio using the non-proprietary DASH delivery format to support other manufacturers and their devices going forward. The Shoutcast AAC streams we provided for network radio only, relied on very old hardware and unsupported software. They had a very high support overhead. We have kept a single Shoutcast stream of every live service to support devices that will never be able to play HLS, HDS or DASH streams. Whist we cannot promise to support Shoutcast for more than 1 to 2 years, we will monitor the number of users and the quality of our service and base our decision making on the impact to the audience. We hope that manufacturers and developers will be able to support our new streams or upgrade existing devices as time goes on, and we will do our best to support them as the technology continues to evolve. We've published a new blog that addresses some of these points and is also worth reading: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/internet/entries/977a1954-658f-4fb2-a23c-71680c49882f Flash was chosen for playback on bbc.co.uk in our embedded media player for several reasons. Reach Flash was the most effective way of delivering a high quality experience to the broadest possible audience. It provided DRM to enable us to negotiate rights for distributing programmes online and allowed us to affordably deliver an adaptive bitrate solution and live simulcasts of our TV channels. You can read more about Flash, open standards and the BBC in the following blog. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/legacy/bbcinternet/2010/08/html5_open_standards_and_the_b.html However, as Cathy Bartlett states in her blog below, we are looking to move a single player across platforms and devices. Well be continuing to exploit modern ways of embedding and playing media in web pages, researching new streaming formats such as MPEG-DASH, as we move towards using a single player across platforms and devices. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/internet/entries/7185ad76-d3de-3df6-8641-975feed88091 So while Flash is commonly used now, we are looking into how best to deliver media going forward. However please be assured that your feedback has also been included on reports that are available to the personnel responsible for maintaining and improving the BBC iPlayer service, including Dan Taylor Watt, the Head of BBC iPlayer. These reports are viewed as important documents that can help shape decisions on future aspects of BBC iPlayer, the scope of the service in terms of its availability and content.

I tried various live streaming URLs > mentioned here by various posters - no joy. Any suggestions welcome. Events have overtaken us, I'm afraid. As of Wednesday, the BBC shifted its live AAC streams onto new URL's that BBCiPlayer presently doesn't find, using a new streaming protocol that LMS doesn't presently play (although bpa has just released a plugin that fixes this). Whilst things settle, your best bet is to use TuneIn or similar that will find and play live MP3 streams. The AAC Listen Again streams through BBCiPlayer are still working, but will be switched over to the new BBC system at some point - but hopefully when it happens all the necessary fixes will be in place for LMS / BBCiPlayer to provide uninterrupted access. majones's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13029 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

I was just about to reply to your post noting exactly this (likewise radio 6 music, AAC-LC 320kb/s 48kHz, so let's assume all the rest!), and by the time I did so you had edited it :D So yes, happy days, we've just been given an upgrade to 320kb/s (and 48kHz, as an aside) on all stations! Perhaps announcing that would have led to a more positive reaction than the way it was actually done! World service seems to use a different URI pattern, and is only at 64kb/s HE-AAC, though. But that's fine, it does work. http://bbcwsen-lh.akamaihd.net/i/WSEIEUK_1@189911/master.m3u8 for those that are interested in listening beyond these shores. gallafent's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64018 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

So, now we get to choose between Akamai and Limelight. I wonder which will prove better. I think I'll go for Akamai since the URI is two characters shorter and I've visited Massachusetts but not Arizona, although the latter is easier to spell. Seriously, it will be interesting to see if there's any particular difference between the two as the new system settles in, and it would be particularly neat if BBCiPlayer plugin is able to provide the choice in due course! :) gallafent's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64018 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: BBCiPlayer Plugin (UK only)
I have been listening the to the BBC HLS streams for a few days direct on my PC using VLC and they are a little bit intermittent if I'm honest. It seems that the individual "chunks" sometimes get mixed up so I hear gaps, and sometimes a few seconds of radio from the past out of order. It corrects itself quickly but something is not right. I do not know if this is a problem with the stream, or a problem with VLC. Given that ffmpeg and VLC are built on the same library I fear we will suffer this too when listening via a squeezebox whoever is to blame. I'd be interested to know if others hear this too. gasteropod's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64020 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Same here please. I successfully followed Tim's instructions and have installed the PlayHLS plugin on LMS hoping I could access it from my SBT via LMS but I can't find it in any of the menus. Do I have to restart the SBT? I'm probably missing something really obvious but I know nothing about scripting, coding or how these things work. Any help much appreciated.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
callesoroe wrote: > I am on serverversion 7.9.0 > iPeng version 8.0.4 Is this today's build of 7.9.0? If not, please update, just to be sure that it's not an old bug. Also, please tell me what your settings for artist handling in LMS are under "Settings->My Music->Browse Artists". What's happening in your case is that the server doesn't return an "artist" for the current track - at all. What you are seeing is the list of "additional artist roles", which comes in composer first. Since iPeng overwrites the value in the current playlist for the currently playing track (since it has _more_ information about that track than is available in the playlist) it replaces the artist with this list. Usually "artist" is the default artist to be used on a track, at least it used to be so before LMS 7.9 and I would consider it a regression if it no longer is independent of all the changes to artwork handling in 7.9. That's what iPeng shows first - if present. If the "artist" is missing, iPeng then shows the list of additional roles, composer first. That's the same order used by the web interface and SqueezePlay, I believe, I think that'S where I got it from. --- learn more about iPeng, the iPhone and iPad remote for the Squeezebox and Logitech UE Smart Radio as well as iPeng Party, the free Party-App, at penguinlovesmusic.com *New: iPeng 8, the Universal App for iOS 7 and iOS 8* pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

There is no menu - jist create a Favorite with a BBC HLS URL and then play the Favorite. When asking question you should give some detail on your LMS version and system platform/OS as sometimes this may be the problem. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

There may be issues about HLS in playlist as HLS is a playlist of playlists itself and LMS may be getting confused. First - check that a single HLS URL will play on your system. Create Favorite with a single HLS URL and check that it plays. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
