Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Material Skin
Feature release, main changes: - Add 'Add to playlist' to queue items and subtoolbar (when have selection). - When showing volume-popup show all volumes if in sync group. - If player is in sync group, then add a button next to volume-slider (in main toolbar) to show volume-popup with all volumes. - Add link to player settings from 'Information' dialog. - Move 'Server settings', 'Player settings' and (for Android APK) 'Application settings' from main menu into 'Settings' dialog. - Move 'Extra settings' out of 'Player settings' dialog's menu and place as button at bottom of dialog. - When showing list of composers, conductors, or bands, check the numerical role_id as well as the text version so that the correct string is shown. - Re-implement 'Advanced search' as a Material dialog. - Only add 'include_online_only_artists:1' if artist request has no role_id or role_id is 'AlbumArtist' - Support SVG images supplied with plugins. If plugin image ends with .svg.png then look for .svg - e.g. plugins/Example/html/images/ExampleLogo.svg.png maps to plugins/Example/html/images/ExampleLogo.svg - Add menu button to 'My Music' allowing virtual library to be selected. - If have virtual libraries, then shown name of current next to 'My Music' - Fix display of reamining time in mobile and expanded now playing views when track has not started to play. - Fix dragging of certain items (e.g. from 'Music folders', apps, etc.) onto queue. *Material debug:* 1.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Denon AVP Control Plugin
My AVR works exactly like that, as do all of them as far as I know. What you are seeing is exactly what is supposed to happen except that the volume setting on your AVP for some reason is not being set correctly by the MSQUICK1 command. In your test, the plugin correctly synched your player volume to the AVP's Quick Select #1 volume (-40) during power on. The only problem is that the AVP didn't set its OWN volume correctly. In my case, for example, the default volume is -45 and my quick select volume is -37. When I power up, my AVR initially is set to -45 and then is changed to -37 by the quick select, which is then passed back to the plugin for the player to synch to. Do you have the Android "AVR Remote" app? I would test with that and see if it also fails to set the volume correctly there when using the Quick Select command, in case it is a firmware bug that only happens when using network control.

I watched it thinking I would see a -30 and then a -40, or a -40 and then a -30, but it was rock steady at -30. So I did this experiment: I set the player volume so it was -20 on the AVP (about 2/3 on the player volume bar). Then I turned off the player. Once everything was off I turned the player back on again. The screen came on an it's volume was about 2/3. After the AVP turned on and everything settled (about 10 seconds) the players volume was set to the -30 level again (about 1/3 on the display). I take it that your AVR does not behave this way? Does your AVR have a default volume setting when turned on? This is an option in the AVP. So no matter what the setting was before it was turned off, mine will reset itself on start to -30. I could select any volume.

Per previous discussion, crossfade only work in flow mode, make sure you have that. Now, I really don't know what you mean by "setting not retained".

I reread your post and my previous statement is not fully accurate. This really has nothing to do with the plugin. When you power the receiver on, the volume should be set to the default setting, which in your case is -30.

The situation you are describing should only happen if the QS command does not complete successfully.

Does the stream in question being a proxied by LMS https stream influence matters ? ralphy wrote: > > I don't know what else I can do with the aac decoder, so if changing the > default aac output threshold server side doesn't break any other > streams, I'll create a pull request to have it changed in the dev branch > of LMS. Well, you will have thought of things by next Christmas ! But, combined with some modification to the stream start up timing, matters seem to be much improved. I'll keep using the modified binary and report back if anything else emerges. mrw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38299 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113479 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Material Skin
I am encountering something odd when I try to drag'n'drop a few selected
tracks from the browse menu to the queue. It appears that LMS attempts
to add the entire library to the queue. It is limited (in Settings) to
2500 tracks, so that becomes the length of the queue. It takes about 30
seconds after the attempted drag'n'drop before the additions to the
queue are displayed. Here's the debug content (without cometd) for that
interval:

Any suggestions as to what I might do to find the cause of this? I
assume it's something specific to my configuration, as I haven't seen
any other reports of this.
This happens with a group player playing a dynamic playlist, which is my
usual operating mode. In my limited testing of other modes, it seems to
occur when a single player is playing a dynamic playlist (using a plugin
that is no longer supported) or the built-in Random Mix feature of LMS.

No. In fact, that's one of the issues that the new changes are supposed to correct. Can you send me a debug log of the "power on" process? Thanks.

I just meant that I've hadn't noticed it. I'll have another listen to the url stream from staresy more closely. The value is how much data needs to be in the decode buffer (in KB) before starting playback. "threshold=204800" is what you should see in the logs using a server side output threshold = 50. "threshold=20480" is what you should see using a value of 20. If you look at Player/Squeezebox.pm you'll see that the outputThreshold is set differently to handle different stream formats, like higher bit rates or higher sample rates. The value can also be overridden in a protocol handler. Both ogg and opus have a default outputThreshold of 20. I suspect that 0 was used for aac back when were very few aac streams and most were not streaming anywhere near the 320@48Khz used by the BBC. As a test I set the outputThreshold to 0 for ogg and tried playing 320@48Khz ogg stream and I get similiar behaviour to what we're seeing with aac and 0. Again thanks for testing. I don't know what else I can do with the aac decoder, so if changing the default aac output threshold server side doesn't break any other streams, I'll create a pull request to have it changed in the dev branch of LMS.

I found setting the outputThreshold to 20 gives a quicker startup and still prevents the underrun. Need to do more testing with that server side change with all the aac content that played fine before changing it. Hence my comments about no real need for the downmix feature for the radio. I couldn't hear any difference between the bass driver and tweeter with it set to stereo or mono output channel mode. But if I add it to the community firmware I didn't want the change to be in one and not the others, just too confusing. Other than those 2 patches, the difference between the previous test static jive and the stutterfix jive is the stutterfix does NOT have fdk-aac linked static, which is the same as the jive

I've been able to reproduce the problem on the radio using my own
320@48K stream, as well as running squeezeplay on my linux system which
is way faster than the radio.
Setting outputThreshold to 50 for aac on the server, is too high, 20
gives a much shorter delay before playback starts for the first time,
but long enough to prevent the AUDIO OUTPUT underrun.
If you can try the server side change to confirm/debunk my findings
would be very helpful. I highlighted the threshold value in the log.

I've been testing the revised binary against the same problematic stream posted by @staresy.

Once going, all seems to be fine, and I get very nicely filled buffers, much as you have described.

One other thing: under the original binary the problems (after initial start up issue) were accompanied by a curious log trace.

I really don't know what the motivation is. :) I would note that the Radio, when playing through speakers, does its own "downmix" in the crossover/dsp component.

Taking this review as a random example - https://www.allmusic.com/album/plans-mw723979 It contains both a JSON and an HTML version of the Review - I searched for "Theakston" which appears twice in JSON and once in HTML - as you say the JSON output is pure text. I take it that it is the JSON that is the new element and consequently you have adjusted the MAI code to find that first and look for HTML only if that isn't found on the basis that it appears that Allmusic are moving to JSON? Perhaps for now MAI should operate HTML first, JSON second until Allmusic have sorted themselves out - I can't imagine they want to lose the links long term.

Thank you for testing.
Sorry I didn't reply with how to install the binary. Glad you worked it
out. Thanks mrw. And no you didn't miss how to install it, none were
provided.
At least it's encouraging that once playing, playback works well.
Unfortunately, I can't play the 320kbps @ 48000hz streams. The closest
stream I've found is from Radio Paradise 320@44100, which unfortuately,
both the original and the updated jive binary plays fine.
Code:
http://radioparadise.com/m3u/aac-320.m3u
Does it play okay for you?
Is your test radio wireless or wired?
>From your log above, it appears that the radio can't handle getting the
amount of decoded aac audio to the output buffer fast enough at the
start. So it pauses, buffers more aac data and then continues without
interruption.
Could you try increasing/setting the bufferThreshold in the bbc sounds
plugin? I'm not sure if that would even make a difference based on how
the audio is streamed.
Another thing that might give some insite is increasing the
outputThreshold for aac on the server side.
Code:
diff --git a/Slim/Player/Squeezebox.pm b/Slim/Player/Squeezebox.pm
index fa2eb1669..78a999625 100644
--- a/Slim/Player/Squeezebox.pm

$pcmendian = '?';
$pcmchannels = '?';
- $outputThreshold = 0;
+ $outputThreshold = 50;
} elsif ($format eq 'dff' || $format eq 'dsf') {
I'll look at setuping my own 320@48K aac stream to see if I can work out
how best to handle it

Didn't we discussed it before? :p Although Group players plugin is excellent it doesn't quite cut it when using it for stereo pair of two Radios.

Alternatively you could use both Radios as control only of Group player(rather then itself) but then I think presets don't work or even power button..

They sometimes include the news in the times, the sometimes don't, but I have noticed they never change the tracklist when they do the repackaging - The plugin uses the same tracklist that you see in the menus, so if that is wrong, it will be wrong when displaying the track on the player when the item is playing - The BBC themselves don't use the tracklist in the way the plugin is using it in their own apps, they just display a list for Audio on demand, not replay it out with the audio. So they have no incentive to get the times accurate, only the order accurate. - The plugin might be out by a few seconds or so, as it tries to display it on the controller in synch with what's playing out of the players buffer, but it might not be spot on. So, in short, as long as the plugin is displaying the track more or less as is you see in the tracklist, that's the best I can do (If it's not, please provide an example). It's not really the BBC's fault either, as it the tracklist information is being used in a way they don't intend (sometimes they don't even include the times, just a list) EXPECTINGTOFLY PLUGINS : - *BBC Sounds* : https://github.com/expectingtofly/LMS_BBC_Sounds_Plugin - *BBC Sounds Wiki* : https://github.com/expectingtofly/LMS_BBC_Sounds_Plugin/wiki - *Virgin Radio (UK)* : https://github.com/expectingtofly/LMS_Virgin_Radio_Plugin - *Times Radio* : https://github.com/expectingtofly/LMS_TIMES_RADIO_PLUGIN expectingtofly's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63263 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113045 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: UPnPBridge = integrate UPnP/DLNA players with LMS (squeeze2upnp)
Hi Philippe, I have tried your settings. The first time, as I reported, all the music was in "poor quality" MP3, having been transcoded from Flac. I went through the setup another two times, before the system started to work as you would expect. I then had replay, but track by track, in Flac with no crossfade etc., even though, I had set up crossfade using one of my Squeezebox controllers (from my Duet). There was an occasional stumble over individual tracks of music, but the system then seemed to go into automatic mode and moved on to the next track on the playlist. The settings in the bridge were not retained. Again today, I started the system. I found that once again the settings had not been retained and I had to set up the bridge according to your instructions. I again saved the settings and I will hope they are retained for the next time I start streaming music, but so far, this has not been the case. sachadog's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10564 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103728 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
