Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 2.3.0 - Spotify Connect for your Squeezebox

2018-07-24 Thread Michael Herger

Not sure how to 'enable Connect mode'.


That would be in LMS Settings/Player/Spotty. But as you do see the 
device in some Spotify clients, that's fine.



In the 2nd iPhone, the settings appear the same in Spotify, but in that
"Devices Menu" button, I don't see "Dan's Squeeze". (This iPhone is
logged into a different Spotify account than the one that Spotty is
logged into).


Are you sure this device is on the same network as LMS? Would you see 
the Squeezebox from this phone if you configured Spotty to use this 
phone's Spotify account?


What system are you running your LMS on? Could there be a firewall 
blocking the announcement broadcast from Spotty?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: UPnPBridge = integrate UPnP/DLNA players with LMS (squeeze2upnp)

2018-07-24 Thread philippe_44


I've just uploaded in the dev repository a version 1.0.0 (finally). This
is a (main) features complete version, finalizing the changes in 0.3.x
releases. Major updates are

- The helper is now capable of decoding audio, apply transformations and
then optionally re-encode it in flac before sending it to the CC device,
or send pcm samples
- Supported codecs are ogg, aac, mp3, flc, aif and pcm
- The main benefits are: re-sample for tracks > 96 kHz, replay gain,
fade in/out/cross and true gapless (in flow mode)
- It has 3 processing modes
- thru: same as previous version, just pass audio data to the CC
- pcm: decode audio, resample it if needed, do replay gain, fading
- flac: same, but re-encode in flac before sending to the CC player
- In pcm or flac, there is an option to be in "flow" mode where the
whole LMS playlist becomes a long single track for the CC players, which
enables true gapless and cross-fading
- It comes at the price of more CPU (10% of a Pi3 when doing mp3 decode,
resampling, flac-re-encoding) at 44.1 kHz / 16 bits
- See user guide for further details

At this point (and I'll cross-post in the UPnP Bridge thread), the
testing is becoming a nightmare for me as there so many options & modes
that I need your help to move that from development to stable, hoping
that the addition of this transcoding capability is something that will
add the finalizing touch that makes it as close a spossible of a real SB
player (synchronization aside)

Sounds perfect - ignore MQTT for now, I'd go for SSL with your existing
certificate, and get stunnel working - it's old but rock-solid and very
lightweight.

The diagnostics (local_test.py) and FAQ should provide quite a lot of
help with this route, just make sure your networking makes sense
internally (LAN-side) and externall (WAN) side, but sounds like you have
most of that working for the cert anyway.

That's right, at least for now. 

Conceptually you've still got an unsolved problem if you use your own
broker - of how to connect to this broker and on what port etc (and
Lambda means no persistent connections of course). The use-case for the
MQTT transport mode was networking / firewalls that -don't allow any
NAT- (so no port mapping etc)

Plus Amazon's one is near-free, always up, close to the Lambda and
relatively easy / consistent to configure, I guess.

Great, please give it a go. Sorry you're finding it difficult - it is
definitely a complex setup. I've been adding to the docs more and more,
but sometimes think the extra detail is making it -more- complicated. 

Definitely the fact there are entirely different networking modes does -
but I had to do that as I've personally switched to 4G internet, and the
existing setup didn't work. -Necessity is the mother of all invention-,
etc

Is there anything in particular?

That's great. I don't know of anyone else who's tried it yet so please
do, and file issues (or PRs if that's your thing) if there are any
missing sections, or you learned anything.

Not really -- 2.0 is practically what's in master right now. I've just
not got round to the release work, I'll try and do that soon.

But I've been thinking around (more) automation to set this stuff up.
The thing is automation tooling (aws cli, scripts etc) are generally
suited to going through a process many times, which makes the -extra-
setup worth it. But here I suspect most people just want to set it up
once and leave it.

But I'm happy to hear to any ideas here... The self-diagnostics are
quite good on the SSL side, some stuff like this for MQTT would be cool
I guess.


>

I don't use a user, just a role. But so long as the Lambda user has the
right permissions (in addition to the normal Alexa / Lambda ones e.g.
AWSLambdaBasicExecutionRole) it should be fine AIUI. Have a look here:
https://github.com/declension/squeeze-alexa/blob/master/docs/example-config/iot-iam-policy.json

mqtt-squeeze doesn't need any IAMs, as it connects (currently at least)
with TLS cert-based authentication, though I did create an IOT thing to
model the server itself (don't think this was necessary, just part of
the exploratory phase... I think...)

Not sure how to 'enable Connect mode'.

I'm looking at iPhone 1 that has the Spotify client running on it that
is logged into the same spotify account that Spotty is logged in to and
I see the 'devices' menu in settings. In there, if I select the white
button that says 'Devices Menu', I see "Dan's Squeeze" as one option,
which is what I want. 

In the 2nd iPhone, the settings appear the same in Spotify, but in that
"Devices Menu" button, I don't see "Dan's Squeeze". (This iPhone is
logged into a different Spotify account than the one that Spotty is
logged into). 

Neither of the 2 Spotify apps has "Show local devices only" on (ie: both
have it set to off).
And both have "Devices Lock Screen" as on.

Not sure how to 'enable Connect mode'...is that an explicit setting in
Spotify settings on the iOS device?

Thanks for your help, Michael.

Great, please do.
I also run LetsEncrypt, NGINX and a MQTT broker but to my understanding
the latter is of no use for this setup since we must use Amazons IOT
broker?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: UPnPBridge = integrate UPnP/DLNA players with LMS (squeeze2upnp)

2018-07-24 Thread caplam


Hello,

It seems i solved my problem. 
Sorry for having posted here as it has nothing to do with upnpbridge.
I will describe my solution as it may concern other people.

First the updater was broken. I manually downloaded deb file and now i'm
noticed when an update is available.
My problem was related to airplay bridge. The plugin crashed i don't
really know when. 
The problem occurred after the last tvOS update. I have an apple tv
which has been integrated in the home app trough home bridge. In the
home app i renamed the apple tv.
In airplay bridge plugin it was already in the confirmation file as
"apple tv". 
When it has been renamed by the home app it appeared a second time in
airplay bridge conf as "chambre" (it's room in french).
It seems airplay bridge didn't like that and crashed regularly. 
What was strange is that airplay bridge crash made lms crash too and
create multiple instance of squeezebox server process.

To solve it, i just had to erase and regenerate the conf file of airplay
bridge plugin.

Hi Michael,

No I didn't create the pdfs myself. Most were downloaded from several
sources. I try to display them within iPeng9 on an iPad and LMS is
running on a QNAP NAS using the digimaster / QNAP club version of LMS.

I'll send you some of those pdfs by mail.
