Which is why I continue to use iPlayerExtras since most of what I use LMS for radio is Radio 3 which is 320kbps on RTMP.

I think it important to note that (as far as I am aware) the RTMP 320kbps is available for all Radio 3 programmes but for no other BBC channel. I've just used the BBC's Windows browser client to play both Radio 3 and Radio 4 Listen Again programmes and it would appear that both were 320 kbps HLS. So perhaps the current HLS listen again streams now include 320 kbps options. (I haven't been following the recent developments and only realised that listen again had changed when tried to catch up with a programme - something I haven't done for some time. Up to now I have been using the initial tweaks with ffmpeg for Live and rtmp Listen Again.)

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Qobuz.com streaming plugin
Hi, I have started populating my Qobuz "Library". To my dismay, I noticed that it is sorted in the order items were added, instead of some reasonable order (e.g., by artist - album). Would it be possible to have an option in this plugin to sort the library that way? Thanks!

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Music & Artist Information plugin
I have used MAI for artists pictures only. Albums covers I am managing myself and they are placed to the album folders (folder which contains album tracks) and named as folder.jpg. But some rare cases it would be easier if album covers are locating in some common folder instead of album folders. So I did this: 1) I created a new folder: albumart 2) I added few covers to the albumart folder and renamed then like folder.jpg --> Please don't touch.jpg, etc 3) I defined artwork folder for MAI 4) Full rescan But it didn't work. Settings for the Music & artist information: Artists photos: Show pictures Find artwork online during library scan : checked Download missing cover art from online sources : unchecked Download and pre-cache artist pictures from online sources : checked Only download pictures for main artists, but not all contributors (composers, conductors etc.) : unchecked Artwork Folder: albumart Folder with artist photos: artistpic Am I missing something? auster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43850 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99537 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC Music Jazz through iPlayer plugins?
Older versions of the iPlayer plugin had a menu option that linked direct to an opml file on Triodes depository. Which would then give an additional 'Special Events' submenu I'm guessing so that he could update it with 'specials' as they happened.

This relies on somebody being told about the pop up stations ( did anybody ask for the Eurovision popup station ?) and having to update files. The hard part is finding out the URL before it starts broadcasting. An alternative approach would be to process the vendor feed of station URLs http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/imda/imda_transports.xml which would result in a very comprehensive menu of all supported live station formats combinations but it would be self maintaining as long as BBC keep the feed up to date. User can go through the menu and then pick a station to be a favorite. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104598 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spotify Premium Plugin (Beta)
Any idea why? Has something changed with Last.fm that I have missed? Oh yes, they have indeed changed a lot. Their web site was broken for days when they updated. And some of the API call work differently from before. Eg. would return only one result instead of several for artist searches etc. That said: I'm not familiar with the feature Triode uses in the plugin. But I wouldn't be surprised if some of the Last.fm changes had an impact on this plugin. -- Michael ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
