First of all once again many, many thanks to Triode for writing an implementation of the HLS protocol 'natively' in the plugin, but I too was seeing high CPU usage on my version 1 Raspberry Pi, so I had to try your changes too utgg. The patch reduces CPU from 54% down to a ticking-along 15% so it's well worth looking at if you're suffering from performance problems until/unless another version from Triode comes out. Also reducing the chunks to 2 really makes startup a lot snappier. Thanks both Triode and utgg!

OK, and here we go again. This time I managed to capture the first line, but it's not showing what SmartMix sent to Qobuz, just the empty list Qobuz returns. So, I'm still not getting anywhere. It very obedently returns 200 results, but I cannot say what the results are for, so I cannot manually check them with the API calls. If I enable SmartMix debugging as well, then I'll get more info, but still no definite resuts for what is actually sent off to Qobuz.

In particular UTGG, your mod to Triodes code to improve the CPU efficiency has enabled my slow CPU ReadyNAS SPARC to play the full bit rate streams; before this, just continual rebuffering and not much sound. I did put LMS on a Raspberry Pi 2 as a backup and that has plenty of grunt without the mod.

Can you make sure you run squeeze2upnp in a directory where you have rw access ? You do not need to run it in admin mode. This really (really) should work with "." as the buffer dir if you start it from an accessible directory. Otherwise, you can re-run it with -i option after you have set the to somethign accessible. Also, I've pushed on GitHub, in the dev directory, a version that, when launched with -i, will records ALL the discovered upnp devices and will NOT try to create a LMS instance. Foobar stops because of lack of audio data. It seems that what you send to foobar is coming from a stream and there is a timeout happening into sq2u. The timeout happens when the other play command occurs, because creation of the other temp file takes too much time. This would probably not happen if you where playing a file, not a stream. The problem with streams is that there is always very few data to be buffered. But most likely, your is on a very slow peripheral (like a network drive) that can cause buffering problems, stream or not. In this log Code: [08:32:14.697] sq_read:677 [0048773C]: read 1048576 (r:200704 w:62) [08:32:14.747] sq_read:677 [0048773C]: read 1048576 (r:98304 w:99) [08:32:16.303] sq_read:677 [0048773C]: read 1048576 (r:69632 w:100) [08:32:18.779] sq_read:677 [0048773C]: read 1048576 (r:253952 w:74) [08:32:18.829] sq_read:677 [0048773C]: read 1048576 (r:110592 w:99) [08:32:22.842] sq_read:677 [0048773C]: read 1048576 (r:8192 w:65) The w:xxx value should almost never be below - 5. The meaning of this is the amount of time sq2u had to wait to have data available in the buffer to be sent to the upnp player, calculated this way : ( - w:xxx)*50ms. For example, with a value of 62, it means that sq2u waited (100-62)*50ms = 1.9s before getting data ! Anywa, forget the technical explanations, you can do two things: 1/ if the buffer directory G:\garmin is a slow access peripheral (a network drive for example - or something where file creation can be slow), change it to a local drive and all issue will be solved 2/ change the parameter to 200 or a bit more.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] WaveInput not working after JRiver installation
Everything had been working just fine with WaveInput until I installed JRiver as a music player on my Dell Vista desktop. Since then I have not been able to get WaveInput to stream into LMS 7.9 I've uninstalled JRiver. I've uninstalled and reinstalled drivers as well as WaveInput. I've tried to go back to a pre-JRiver restore point unsuccessfully, getting an "unidentified" restore problem error message. To my eyes, everything *looks* okay. I still have Realtek's Stereo Mix driver under "recording". When I launch WaveInput, the minutes:seconds counter looks fine. There just aren't any sounds! (I'm not having any problem streaming audio files directly from my hard drive to my office stereo using my digital RCA cable.) My assumption is that the installation of JRiver caused some sort of issue with the drivers, but I can't tell what happened. Any help would be appreciated. I'm at a loss without my favorite third party plugin.

I do not see that in these logs. To be more precise, with some streams, it is unavoidable that the w:xxx goes lower. It happens when the stream source only sends small chunks and, on the other side, the upnp player is willing to buffer a lot of data: the player "requires" data to sq2u but sq2u has not received anything "new" from LMS, so it has to "wait". On my setup, and with foobar2000, the worse is a 64kb/s mono info radio station that sends packets by 5~10kB each time, in that case, the wait time can be up to 30*50=1.5s, but a max of 100 is still fine and I can have the 5 players working in parallel. For local audio file, it shall never go below 5*50=250ms LMS 7.7.2 - 5 radio, 3 Boom, 4 Duet, 1 Touch, 1 SB2.

The mystery of the parameter on my system. If I run with the default (value ?) it runs fine with my firewall on. The log reports using port 49153 at the start, and mentions 8080 for the player. Note that port 49153 is not open for incoming packets in my firewall. If I run with 192.168.1.10:49153 it runs if the firewall is off but not if on. Further, if on, disabling the firewall doesn't work until sq2u is restarted. My MF renderer reports 'track not found' (my Marantz doesn't play either). If I run with 192.168.1.10:49152 it won't run at all, whether the firewall is on or off. I stopped my other servers (minimserver and the LMS UPnP server that I use for video and photos) but that made no difference.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Library problem
A while back someone reported that Custom Library plugin was not working with LMS 7.9. It seems to count songs in each custom library correctly when the libraries are refreshed, but upon selecting a library and browsing into it, it always reports empty. I noticed the same. I had a library defined to only show unrated tracks but it no longer works. So I wondered how I could create a library to filter on trackstat ratings. I thought advanced search results saved as a library were stored in preferences as sql queries, but I can't find them. I had a look at Custom Library plugin, but can't see where it is going wrong. I did find another potential problem with libraries filtering on path name, where spaces exist in the path, as it uses sprintf and "%20" appears in the url instead of a space, so it expects more parameters to satisfy the sprintf input string. Advanced search has a filter on rating, but I guess this is a different database field to trackstat ratings, as it doesn't find any tracks with ratings. ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

It is clear but very strange - I tried on my Linux box (a VM, no fw) and my Win7 box (fw), with various port, including the default one and it all worked. I put on purpose a wrong IP address, and in that case, the upnp stack does not initialize (error -208). It is even more strange that you have it running w/o opening 49153 ! The fact that is does not run on 49152 even w/o fw seems logical because obviously something is already on 49152 (probably some other app using libupnp), that why sq2u choses 49153 and not 49152 at startup.

Or maybe I'm just not seeing it. Lots of info coming in from Qobuz, with cover files and everything, and then after a lot of that, it suddenly fails. I don't get it... Like I said...

Why is setting to 200 a > problem and can a value of be set for each device by > editing the config.xml file? Everything in the section can be repeated under each section to override default parameters. Increasing can be a problem because there is a set of threads in sq2u (using libupnp) and each thread has a queue of jobs. Threads are running in //, but within one thread, jobs run one after the other. Waiting for data from LMS is in a job and that might lock other pending jobs. This is a libupnp function, not something I wrote so I'm not 100% sure, and looking at the code did not fully confirmed the risk. But you can try, some have increased that parameter above 200 with success. Still, the reason why I'm cautious is that starting another player should not have the consequence you experience, I fee there is a problem somewhere else. But, try 200 and if this is still happening, then I'll have to find out the real cause. LMS 7.7.2 - 5 radio, 3 Boom, 4 Duet, 1 Touch, 1 SB2.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: BBCiPlayer Plugin (UK only)
I've switched almost entirely to using iPlayerExtras for Listen Again (thanks for your work bpa), for two reasons. First, it plays Radio 3 at 320kbps AAC which sounds so much better than the 128kbps max from HLS. Second, iPlayerExtras appears to have between 3 and 4 weeks catchup window depending on which programme I'm looking at whereas iPlayer is just a bit over 7 days. I assume the BBC did not extend the official XML feed that Triode uses when the catchup window was extended, but it's a bit poor of them not to. I appreciate that Triode is working under constraints of official XML feeds and agreements with the BBC and he has to do that to stay on the BBC's good side (such as it may be). And it is entirely the BBC's decision to remove 320kbps AAC Listen Again for HLS. It is part of the flexibility of LMS that there is room for iPlayerExtras which can plug these gaps.
