Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Community Firmware for Squeezebox Radio/Touch/Controller and LMS 8
I applaud the effort to get new firmwares out! It's something I tried to build a few years back when Spotify pulled support for our hardware. And I failed badly... As Ralphy said I've been running this firmware on all hardware types. Radio has been using a version of the Community firmware for months. My kids actually installed the firmware when prompted without asking me. Because it was in the way. And they haven't complaint about the results ;-).

After I installed an older firmware version that I was sent, the device promptly wrote over that firmware with the same version that was on the device when I started having problems. But now the problems are gone. Let's hope permanently.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] LmsUpdate and LmsRepack - Synology 8.0.* packages
It should be perfectly possible to continue using LMS as it is but only as long as you don't update the Synology OS to DSM 7 and don't update the Perl package in DSM beyond 5.24 (you can turn off auto-updates). You'll be stuck with the current LMS for synology release by pinkdot (if that's what you're using) unless someone else packages it for Synology. You might not be happy to keep the diskstation running old software (?) If your 420J supports docker you could look at using LMS in a docker container instead, and update to your heart's content! manx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70875 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111876 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

[SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Community Firmware for Squeezebox Radio/Touch/Controller and LMS 8
Based on the contributions of several forum members, including myself, in the 'Community Radio Firmware project thread' (https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?111663-Community-Build-Radio-Firmware), I have built updated firmware for the Radio, Touch and Controller. The only key missing feature from the original firmware is the lack of a native wma decoder. If you need to decode the wma format, install the Play Windows Media (WMA) plugin from bpa on LMS. Note that if you run LMS on Windows, wma decode support is built-in and does not require the plugin. I've been running various versions of the custom firmware on the one Radio and Touch that I own without any issues for nearly a year. Michael has been using my Radio and Controller firmware for a while now without any problems and the older community radio firmware I released last month, has been downloaded nearly 70 times without any issues reported, so it should be fairly safe for everyone to try. That being said... THE FIRMWARE IS MADE AVAILABLE WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; WITHOUT EVEN THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! Not all the original source code is available under the 'SqueezePlay BSD License' (https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?74049-Squeezeplay-now-under-BSD-License), so several features use the binary modules from the last available original firmware for that device. A summary of the changes and binary modules used are available by clicking the link in the plugin settings page or 'here' (https://ralph_irving.gitlab.io/lms-community-firmware/changelog.html). To simplify installation of the new firmware, Michael has created a plugin for LMS which redirects the firmware update check and download to my alternate site. It's available in the 3rd Party Plugin section of the LMS Settings->Plugins tab. After installaton and an LMS restart, navigate to Settings->Advanced->Community Firmware for Touch/Radio/Controller and click the checkbox to enable the redirection. Once enabled, it can take up to the duration set in the LMS Software Updates setting, which by default is 24 hours, before the firmware is downloaded and your device prompts with the option to install the update. You can also navigate to Settings->Advanced->Software Update to check if v8.0.1rx is available on the device. You also have to have enabled the check for software updates for LMS to even look for new firmware. I STRONGLY suggest that you perform a Factory Reset of your devices before installing the new v8.0.1 firmware for the first time. Many of the patches available for the original firmware are built-in now and may cause squeezeplay to fail to start at boot. The Enhanced Digital Output (EDO) applet for the Touch works with the new firmware. However, make sure you factory reset before upgrading if EDO is already runing on your Touch. To revert to the original Logitech firmware, uncheck the tick box in the Commuity Firmware Plugin settings and the next time LMS checks for firmware updates the old firmware will be downloaded and available to install from the Software Update menu on the device. Keep Safe and Merry Christmas!

Now that I think of it... When I originally tested this, I was trying to power the switch with "on" as a state. Which doesn't exist. Which is why I thought it didn't work...

Would need more experimentation but it is on state change. So I would not expect anything to change when skipping since the player state remains as "playing". I presume the simplest thing to do is to create one automation for each destination state ... but I expect that there is a clever way to do it all in one.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Squeezelite/piCorePlayer power to Tasmota/MQTT/HA
Home assistant has a squeezebox integration and already could display the status of the various players, or serve as a basic remote for them. It just couldn't trigger an action on state change (unless I missed how this can be achieved) So, node-red poll on the status as seen in home assistant and use that as a trigger for controlling the power state of the plug that's used for the amp. If you have multiple smart things, you may want to look into home assistant to control all of them under a common ecosystem that includes squeezebox.

I'm sorry if I misunderstood the reply I got in the Material thread, I'm not trying blame or pointing fingers here. I should have limited my experience to the Spotty search result. After testing this a bit extensively in Spotty search result, I now see that in some Search results, Spotty actually offer relevant More-options.

Yeah, Mixlr calls them showreels. I've never had any success in finding a URL for these that plays through LMS. Not to worry, I sometimes use Stream What You Hear to listen to shows on my Radio.

Just to complete the picture. What did you use to detect & notify player change state - the squeezelite "-S", the LMS EventTrigger plugin, something else bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113459 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

The only thing you can do is use Material's JSON/COMETD debug to see when/why it is being refreshed - http:// SERVER:/9000/material?debug=json,cometd No one else seems to be seeing this, and I have -never- seen it (and I -only- use Material) - which leads me to believe its an issue with your system. Might not be, but I cannot fix an issue I cannot recreate. jasell wrote: > Otherwise it would be good practice to not show More-option, or show it > disabled, if there are no More-options. Material already has some logic for this, which is why its not shown everywhere. Now, obviously, something with the response in this case is tripping Material up. But seeing as I don't use Spotify I can't check. I am *not* going to attempt to fetch the 'More' menu for -every- item to check whether it really has one or not - that would be slowing things down for a use-case I do not have, and for no real advantage. However, the code is open-source so you are welcome to investigate this. *Material debug:* 1.

As described I have this independent of Spotify or Local music. Refreshing the playlist happens without the playlist being modified, it can happen anytime during the song, so not related to switching track or so. cpd73 wrote: > And, as you already know, I do not use spotify - so without any debug > info there is nothing I can do.

I've asked for a Feature request to in Spotty forum to make the More-option available also in the Spotty Search result... This would be the best solution from usability point of view. Otherwise it would be good practice to not show More-option, or show it disabled, if there are no More-options. //jakob NAS: QNAP TS-459U+ QTS 4.2.6 (4x 2TB, RAID5) Services: LMS 7.9.3 by QLMS 2.10.06 'QLMS at QNAP club' (https://www.qnapclub.eu/sv/qpkg/545) Squeezebox: 6x Reciever, 3x Boom, 2x SB3 Classic, 1x Touch Controller: iPeng on iPad and iPhone, Spotify by Spotty jasell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17817 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109624 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)
Hi, I'm a user of both Spotty and Material skin. Material skin offer a More-option on most elements, independent if there is any content to show or not. I found myself numerous time trying to access the More-options from the Spotty Search result view, but I get an empty list of More options. In the default skin there is not More-options available, so for none-material users this would not be a problem. If I however start playing a song from Spotty Search result view and then from the Playlist view select the More-option I get the More-option with all kinds of action like Title or Artist radio that I use a lot. I'm asking for Spotty to enable/present the More-options that are available in Playlist view also in the Spotty Search result view. It would benefit the user experience, but is not critical by any means. Thanks for all the good works!
