When later adding the tracks to current playlist I’m using:

   $request = $client->execute(['playlist', 'addtracks', 'listRef', 
$filteredItems]);

Would it work with a database track object in $filteredItems or would it
require a remote track object if available?

$filteredItems can be a list of URLs. No need to send full objects.


Could the plugin just make a call like this to get the database track
object ?


If you really need it (not in above case).


   my $track = Slim::Schema->rs(‘Track’)->single({ 'url' => $url });


Yes! That's pretty exactly what objectForUrl() eventually does (for 
database objects):

Just checking to know if the plugin would need the remote track object
anyway to be able to play the track. If it isnt needed to play the

enough and a plugin would really need to remote track object ?

Code:

  my $track = Slim::Schema->rs(Track)->single({ 'url' => $url });

Or would it cause other side effects if it doesnt retrieve it through
objectForUrl method ?
Just asking to see if we can avoid adding adding extra complexity to LMS
core if we need to adapt the code in the plugin anyway.

I was considering an additional parameter (or flag in the arguments) to
force looking up the database object. But I rejected that idea in favour
of what we have now because it would have required a change on your end.
Now is somebody wanted to pick this up, I'd be happy to add that flag.
It's only two or three lines of code to add, and it wouldn't change any

To see the wunderground temperature you will need to edit your
CustomClock screen to use the variables %e or %E instead %t or %T.  You
can see all the variables that can be displayed on the Player SDT
Settings page.  This settings page is separate from the main SDT

I feeel the root of "drop outs" was these "long delay" packets.  I think
it is has virtually disappeared for you because

1. BBC Sounds is a new plugin and stream handling is also new. There are
improvement/fixes being made to the code - one of which I know dealt
with "long delay".  This means when it happens, its effect is minimised
- you'll only notice the really really long delayed packet.
2. A local/regional network issue has been resolved. I had a version of
plugin to log these "long delay" packets - from my experience and other
users reporting - it often happened at weekends and/or in a region.  My
guess is that the "long delay" packets happen more often when a network
upgrade/maintenance is happening or if there is regional network issue
affecting the CDN network.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)

2021-01-04 Thread Ron F.



I was a bit curious, and due to the recent discussion about streaming
AAC using Spotty, I thought I would try to see if I could create a
custom convert rule for SPT->AAC that could be used by Spotty - as an
experiment. Again, this is not an important issue, but I was curious
nevertheless... In a nutshell I could not get it to work, and I am
stumped. I tried using both faac and ffmpeg to do the spt->aac
transcoding, and I encountered essentially the same failure in both
cases: the conversion appears to be taking place, but not in
"real-time." The conversion of each track in a Spotify playlist begins,
at least I see thousands of frames converted, but they are not streaming
to the player. I don't see error messages, I just see the player jump
from track to track, attempting to play a few seconds each time, before
jumping to the next one in the list.

There is most likely something quite basic here that I do not
understand:


spt aac * *
# RT:{START=--start-position %s}
[spotty] -n Squeezebox -c "$CACHE$" --single-track $URL$ --bitrate
320 --disable-discovery --disable-audio-cache $START$ | [faac] -r -P -b
320 -o - -


The rule for using ffmpeg to do the transcoding to AAC is considerably
more complex, and also appears to be transcoding successfully, but the
end result is the same, in that nothing is being piped or flushed out of
the transcoder in real-time.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC Sounds Dropping out

2021-01-04 Thread comeng



OK

So done various tests as my base I ran 8 hours solid music streaming
from my NAS to the 3 synchronised Raspberry Pi's and as expected I got
no drop outs or any other issues so internal networks and devices appear
to be functioning correctly, then did the same with Listen Again and had
no issues, doing the same with Live feed Radio 2 I had one occasion of
loss of sound of a couple of seconds with nothing showing in the log
files and at this level it is not even a minor irritant.
So what has changed and the only thing I can identify is upgrading to
Sounds 2.9.1.
The one thing I did notice was that the log file when on Live appeared
very similar to that of Listen Again whereas previously the number of
requests per second was significantly different
I will keep monitoring and get back to you.
If it would help I can send log files if anyone cares to specify what
they would like to see.

Thank you for help and as always in such circumstances I am frustrated
that I cannot come up with an explanation or put my finger on one issue
that could be further investigated.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Qobuz.com streaming plugin

2021-01-04 Thread Jazzlampe



Hi to everyone,
I tried to solve my problems on my own, and this forum has always been
very helpful :) Until now. I'm rather desperate, since none of my ideas
(and the ideas I read about) worked. And here is what this is all
about:
Serious dropouts, stuttering or complete breakdown when streaming from
Qobuz. Some tracks run for a few seconds before the problem occurs, some
over a minute. HiRes is somewhat more affected than standard 16/44.1.
Local playback with HiRes or DSD is fine most of the time. There are
albums that do play fine one day and are crap the other. I cannot
reproduce the problem for sure. It's pretty randomized.:(

Server: RPI 3B+ with PCP7, LMS 8.1.1, all plugins are updated. There is
a second server just for testing (Win10, intel i3, 8GB RAM) with
basically the same software. Problems are the same.

Clients: Several RPIs (Types B, 2B, 3B) with HifiBerry DAC, AMP2, Digi+
Pro and USB-DACs, all with PCP7 and Squeezelite 1.9.8-1287-SC-1.0. By
the way: PCP5, 6, 6.1 were affected in the same way. Before that I do
not remember. It feels like forever. I tried all possible alsa-settings,
input:output-buffers, core-isolation, different PSUs, a variety of
WIFI-adapters - no difference at all.

Infrastructure: I'm connected via rock-stable 100MBit DSL. The servers
and one client are wired via gigabit ethernet. All other clients do run
on GN/AC-mesh-wifi. I live in a house with 3 floors. There are wired
accesspoints on every floor. Every floor has its own SSID so the clients
do not roam. Channels are fixed, and so are the IP-addresses. I even
suspected my own DNS and firewall-servers and came back to a plain
Fritz!Box-configuration. iperf3 proves a constant 110MBit/s between
WIFI-clients and server.

After all I doubt that it's network-related as none of the problems
occur with the qobuz app (Android, Windows) or Squeezplayer app
(Android). Local playback works fine so I suspect the qobuz-plugin. I
inspected the logs but did not find anything, as if the problem did not
exist.

What logfiles should I look at?
What else could be the reason? 
Help is deeply appreciated.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] SqueezeLite on Windows pausing, interruption, dropout of audio every 5 minutes

2021-01-04 Thread gordonb3



Oh... That's pretty interesting. Apparently the Synology shell is
something of a virtualization layer on top of the actual OS. Shame that
the SSM tool does not display vital drive information like LCC, but with
a 20 minute sleep setting I would not expect issues with park/unpark.
Should this be the case anyway you should definitely be able to identify
it by a ticking sound coming from the unit. Do note that RAID 5 is a
three disk configuration, so one of your disks must function as a spare.
Does SSM tell you which one is which, i.e. which one is the spare? Two
types of logic might apply here, just follow the numerical order or skip
one of the centre two disks to reduce heat exchange between the disks,
so drawing any conclusions from it will most likely prove wrong, but I
would be very suspicious if the spare happened to be sda.

That said, I think we may have gotten off-track here a bit as I was
wondering if you could verify this behaviour with the Duet you own and
then noticed that you had mentioned to run piCorePlayer as well and not
seeing the issue there. That impluiues that the problem is on the client
side, not the server. It may be interesting to verify TCP connectivity
on other protocols, in particular SMB. Do you have active drive mappings
to the Synology on the Windows client? If not, create one and keep an
Explorer window with folder listing open without clicking the mapped
drive. If after some time (probably about 5 minutes or so) you see a red
X appear over the mapped drive this means that the TCP connection has
actively been disconnected, which should not happen.

Yes. here is how they are set up:
32835

Hibernation happens after 20 minutes, and I have also set up logging for
this. Looking at the logs, I see the last hibernation activity was 8
months ago. That makes sense, because this page:
https://www.synology.com/en-global/knowledgebase/DSM/help/DSM/AdminCenter/system_hardware_hibernation
explains that certain services, such as the Logitech Media Server need
constant access to disk, so if they are running, hibernation usually
doesn't happen, and that is the case with me.

>>applications report 8-byte length winsock errors that need to be
masked 0x to resolve to a usable 10xxx decimal error code.

In that case, it would be helpful to use a #computer-directive to check
for 32/64 bitness, and use the suggested logic to resolve the
error-code. I hope ralphy can easily make the change, and I'll rerun my
test to see if I can get that error code.

>> if you have installed `green` drives they will actually do that

I am aware that these desktop-type drives have this power-saving
'feature' which causes problems for NAS. I have Toshiba NAS drives, and
these are not the 'green' type drives.

I'm going to play with Wireshark to see if I can gain some insight into

I'm not sure I quite understand, but never mind, I don't want to waste

I've changed the version in install.xml to 2.1.5, so when 2.2 is

You do no need to use mkrel.py, that is only needed to create minfied
builds, etc. It works with the current checkout, so does not care about
branch, etc.

To use a git/development build you simply need to copy the contents of
the 'MaterialSkin' folder to your Plugins folder (or use a sym-link with
Linux)

I deleted the MaterialSkin Plugin directory and used your instructions
to link MaterialSkin to a directory cloned from github and then "git
checkout master".  The now playing line now works as expected.  LMS now
thinks MaterialSkin needs updating to 1.7.3 (from DEVELOPMENT), but I
won't until it shows 2.2.

I can only think that the mkrel.py to 2.2.0 did not work quite correctly
now the 2.2 release directory does not exist.

Thanks for all your efforts and quick responses.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ANNOUNCE: YouTube Plugin (API v3)

2021-01-04 Thread justjason



it looks like google has changed the process for generating the keys. I
am not able to use the search function and have been trying to generate
new APi as mentioned by  few users lately. I am not getting past OAuth
client ID as I can not see any option for "other"
Is there any chance of an updated "how to "?

How to use personal account
- go to Google Console Credentials and select your YouTube project
- select "Create credentials", then "OAuth client ID" and then "Other"
- choose a name or leave the default
- click "Create", this will generate a Client ID and Secret
- paste "Client ID" and "Client secret" here and click "Apply"
- click "Get Code" and if nothing appears to its right, just click
"Refresh" or refresh this LMS page
- copy the code in red and click "Click here to authorize" link . You'll
be prompted by YouTube to enter the code
- return to the LMS main screen, you can now use "My Subcriptions" and
"My Playlists"
- to remove authorizations, go to Google Console Permissions

Odd.  I tried going back to a 2 line display for the queue, as shown in
your sample, but it still doesn't display in now playing, as shown in my
sample.  The data is definitely there, with the right options chosen,
and shows in the queue.

I downloaded the master only a few hours ago, used mkrel.py to generate
the release as 2.2.0, removed the plugin, installed the new build, and
ran it (this is how I've done it before and it's worked thus far). 
Maybe something went awry with the mkrel since 2.2 is no longer on
github?

Was this a recent change?  Is there any way I could trace the issue for
myself?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)

2021-01-04 Thread Mirage



A few days ago I had the problem where it says I should get a client ID.
As I assumed it was related to that I just changed to new Pi 4 server I
asked about it in this thread:
https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?113512-ANNOUNCE-piCorePlayer-7-0-0=1001832=1#post1001832

After reading the replies I understod that that it was related to the
client ID. When I tried Spotify later it worked as usual.

Can this problem come and go? Is the general recommendation now to get a
client ID, even if Spotify works now?

When I looked at settings for Spotty now I found something I haven't
seen before. Next to my account it says "Import" and I can choose Yes or
No (it's set to No). What is this?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] MusicIP on Ubuntu 18.04

2021-01-04 Thread chaug



I have finally figured out the location of the recipes.xml file. Or
rather: I figured out that the mmm.ini also needs to be in the correct
place (apparently, MusicIP just runs with some hard coded default
settings if it doesn't find the mmm.ini.)

So here is what I did:

  
- Locate the file MusicMagicServer in the terminal
- run   
Code:

./MusicMagicServer -verbose start


- In the response you will see where it is looking for the mmm.ini:
Code:

Reading settings from /home/username/.MusicMagic/mmm.ini


- Make sure your mmm.ini is exactly in that location and check/modify
  the cache path to your default.m3lib provided in the mmm.ini. (I
  believe that if it doesn't find any mmm.ini it assumes that same path
  as the location for the default.m3lib, but if you specify a different
  path in the mmm.ini, it will use that.
- Put your recipes.xml in the same directory as the default.m3lib
  mm.ini (e.g. /home/username/.MusicMagic/) [Disclaimer: if this doesn't
  work, try putting it where the mmm.ini is. In my case the two are
  identical]
- Restart MusicMagicServer (it seems to read the recipe files only at
  startup)
- Point your broswer to   
Code:

http://:10002/api/recipes?submit=Show+Recipes

 and you should see a list of your recipes as defined in the
  recipes.xml.
  

Since the existing Web-UI doesn't have a button to show the recipes, I
added one. Feel free to use my index.html which you can find at
https://github.com/tophee/MusicIP-Web-UI/blob/main/index.html

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Unable to get Spotty to run

2021-01-04 Thread Malcolmr



Problem solved:

Visual C runtime was installed in the last couple of days - when Spotty
reported that it was required and I used the link in the Spotty settings
page which contained the error message about requiring C++. 
Uninstalling and reinstalling made no difference but downloading the
latest version of C++ redistributable solved the problem.  The version
linked from Spotty is 14.0.23026.0 and it is now working with
14.28.29325.

Thanks for your help.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)

2021-01-04 Thread Wigster



Him

I just wanted to say that I've been suffering quite a lot of problems
with Spotty and especially using Spotify Connect with LMS on Windows.
It's never been stable.

I finally had time to deinstall the plugin, delete all the folders and
to start from scratch. I've also added my own Spotify Client ID. And now
everything is beautifully working.

I started from the initial Spotty version, so presumably some gunk had
built up in the settings. Worth a try if you are suffering.

Thanks a lot Michael!
