As you seems to be very knowlegeable with databases, do you have

As i already have a mysql server running and LMS is dockerized, i can
duplicate the environment "file based, server based db" very easily.

Indeed.

There is some writing going on, though:

Any idea how to analyze this?

While my library only has ~5000 artists, this still doesn't account for
the DB size difference.
Do you have " Find artwork online during library scan" enabled (I
don't)?

Whatever the reason, it seems to make sense to add imageproxy.db to the
DB supported by the plugin. I'll look into this for the next update.

I'm moderately confident that the plugin's DB settings do not adversely
affect performance (unless the system runs out of memory, but in this
case, the DB performance settings shouldn't have been "Maximum" in the
first place)
However, if this persists, the next step would be to determine during
which step of the re-scan the slowdown occurs,

tbh, my first take would be that it's unrelated to the plugin. However,
this should be easy to check; De-activate the plugin, restart LMS, check
if it happens again (under the same circumstances).

It's part of the perl module DBD::SQLite's source code, which
unfortunately means you have to re-compile it.
On the plus side, it only takes a few minutes and you get a shiny new
SQLite version for free.

Or, if your LMS is running on 32bit Arm or 64bit x86, I could upload
some binaries which may work.

I'd speculate MySQL won't be faster.
There are a couple of methods to exploit multi-threading. Ignoring
processing several SQL queries at once (as LMS sends queries
sequentially) and more esoteric ones (data sharding etc.), this
basically leaves intra query parallelism, e.g.
- if a query has subqueries, processing those in parallel
- under certain (limited) conditions, certain ops during query
processing can be parallelized (e.g. higher level (table scans etc.,
usually requires explicit declaration), lower level (e.g. sorting
results))
MySQL will be better at this, but SQLite actually supports a (very)
limited form of the latter approach (iirc sorting results, maybe more?).
Multi-threading is, however, disabled by default. My plugin enables it
(2 threads), but atm I have no idea if it is ever used.
On the flip side, SQLite has an advantage in having siqnificantly less
overhead (no server etc.) and no intra-process communication.
And there is a real question if LMS even uses single queries worth
parallelizing (in terms of both complexity and data volume), as this
generates overhead of it's own (thus, SQLite has built-in heuristics to
decide how many threads it uses for a query).

Nevertheless, I agree, if anyone bothers to invest time in actually
benchmarking this, it'll interesting to the see the results.

I don't think this prevents SQLite from launching additional threads if

I think I might have identified the issue, unfortunately I think it’s a
reasonably big issue and I’m a bit surprised that it works predictable 
for anyone after a full rescan.

As the logic works the multilibrary_libraries.id values is reused as
long as a matching multilibrary_libraries.libraryid is found in the
table. This means that id should never change purely due to an upgrade,
new/changed files rescan or playlist rescan. However, if the contents of
library.db is cleared, which happens in a full rescan or a new
installation, the libraries will be re-created from scratch and when
this happens they can potentially get new ids. As long as
multilibrary_libraries table isn’t cleared the libraries should keep
their id.

The order the libraries are recreated will affect which library that
gets the lowest and highest id. This order is unfortunately very
unpredictable as it’s just the order of the hash in the following
for-loop:
https://github.com/erland/lms-multilibrary/blob/28d437d83235aceaac6e47b389727d46488de139/src/Plugin.pm#L326
Sorting the hash keys would make it a bit more predictable but it would
not be a solution since creating a new library with a file name that’s
alphabetically in the middle of existing libraries would cause itself
and the libraries after it to get a new id after next rescan.

I’m also not 100% sure the AUTOINCREMENT id column always is reset so
the first library created gets id 1. If library.db is completely deleted
it probably will but I don’t remember exactly how this is handled in the
full rescan. If AUTOINCREMENT is reset to 1 during a full rescan and the
hashing order hasn’t been changed due to Perl upgrade or similar, the id
would probably be the same after each full rescan. But the hash order is
very undefined and can likely change due to other things than Perl
version, so I really think it’s pure luck that this works reliable for
anyone with more than a single library.

If someone deletes a library and re-creates it, it will likely get a
higher id and after next full rescan the id will be decreased if
AUTOINCREMENT results in id starting from 1 again. 

So to sum it up, I have to admit that the implementation is really a
mess and I’m surprised I didn’t notice it myself when implementing the
plugin.

A solution to this really need to store an id in either the library
configuration file or in the prefs file of each library and replace the
AUTOINCREMENT column with a manually updated integer and make sure to
take the value from prefs/library configuration when creating the row in
multilibrary_libraries table, which happens here:
https://github.com/erland/lms-multilibrary/blob/28d437d83235aceaac6e47b389727d46488de139/src/Plugin.pm#L352
It’s probably easiest to store Id in prefs because then it can be
completely handled in initDatabaseLibrary function and doesn’t have to
affect other parts of the code.

Just wrote the above if someone wants to try to fix the problem and
release a new version of the plugin. Personally I’d still advice people
that have the possibility to switch to the built-in virtual libraries
functionality rather than using the currently unsupported Multi Library
plugin. Of course, switching to built-in virtual library functionality
won’t work for everyone since they rely on functionality in Custom
Browse and SQL Playlist plugins which currently doesn’t support virtual
libraries.

I wish I had the time to fix my own mess but unfortunately other things
in my life (family, day work) is currently more important so it’s
unlikely to happen in the foreseeable future, really sorry for this. If
someone else wants to fix it and distribute a new plugin version I’m
happy to try to answer any questions or review smaller code changes.

Thanks slartibartfast, and thanks Craig for making Material Skin so

I've tried this on a windows server, placing the actions.json file in:

C:\ProgramData\Squeezebox\prefs\material-skin\

...and can't get it to work. I've verified the json code at the duckduck
verifier, all good, refreshed browser/cleared cache etc but no joy.

Am I placing the file in the correct place or is it possible there's an
issue with this on a windows server?

So that was enabled, but disabling it picked up just one of the 4
players in this house.

I decided to reinstall the plugin from scratch. The Spotty Authorisation
is also not visible. I can log in manually, but this doesn't help with
having connect work. All the spotty.exe helpers are running, the
firewall is open for inbound connections for spotty.exe on all ports on
both UDP and TCP (nothing in outbound though).

THis used to work very well and then gone on all account in the house.

I have now re-written the Inguz Web front end. Everything seems to be
working, I want to give it a real workout on my main server and then do
a bit of code tidy up.

I will post a zip of the files and instructions on how to install once I
have verified that it is behaving itself.

Hi, it is working again after I updated. I have to say though that
updates are not indicated in the material skin - you have to got the
trad skin to be notified. Also, material skin will not display the
plugin version. And MAI is not listed under active plugins. But yeah I
should have had a more thorough look into it. 
It now displays the reviewer's name too.
I didn't post the whole server.log as I didn't want to clutter the whole

Sorry for asking, but is there a few lines for actions.json that will
add the player settings?  I can see the icon should be music_note, but I
can't figure out what the URL should be for the iframe (or what the call
should be).   Sadly I'm not a knowledgeable js programmer, but

As far as I know none of my plugins support the library concept. 
Unfortunately my time is limited these days which is the main reason
I’ve decided to stop maintaining my plugins, so unless another developer
decides to take over maintenance there is no plans to add support for
libraries. 

If anyone wants library support I’d suggest encourage the Ratings Light
developer to add support in Ratings Light plugin.

It wasn't clear to me that this is an option. I will try this at least
to report here the outcome. Oh i love the flexibility of this stuff.

This -could- be an issue with Material - you need to confirm if it is
sending the library ID when making TrackStat calls. If you use
Material's JSON debug (see my sig) you can see the REQ messages sent to
LMS. You should check to confirm that "library_id:X" (X is the
library ID, so will differ) is sent in the REQ messages.

However, it is also possible that TrackStat does not use library_id even
if it is passed.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] TrackStat and Library Views

2021-03-04 Thread Shozzer


Hi  All

I am hoping someone can help me with a little query. I have conducted a
search and saved the result as a Library View. Using Material Skin I
have pinned TrackStat to the main menu based on the Library View. When I
use TrackStat, however, there is no obvious difference than using it
with my whole library even though TrackStat is showing on the main menu
as being pinned with the library selection. I had hoped that TrackStat
would limit itself to the library selection so that I could search
within the library view for, say, albums which have been played the
least. The results that come back are based on all my music files. Am I
missing the point somewhere?

Thanks.

Steve

are your files tagged with musicbrainz_id? If so, then you can disable
the musicbrainz id stuff within trackstat settings. Would be interesting
if this is the cause of the slow startb and stop. If so, then you're
number two of those guys which have this. I'm working on a fix for that.
But not ready for primetime.

I'm not sure that sugar enters into it. More like steroids. When
TrackStat was enabled for LMS 8.* I immediately installed it, only to
uninstall it very shortly afterwards - starting and stopping LMS was
taking too long. Out of curiosity I have installed the Optimizer plugin
and also TrackStat. Starting and Restarting the server is now extremely

There is one side effect I am experiencing. The Control Panel refuses to

opened straight away. I closed it and tried again a short while after

Also, because i'm curious and have DB spcialists here, why is the whole
stuff file based and would a dedicated DB server or a Redis server help?


File based: it's simpler and good enough.

We used to ship with MySQL for a while, but maintaining MySQL in the 
background on Windows in a user friendly package wasn't easy.


Redis: isn't a general purpose database, and certainly not SQL.

But you should be able to use MySQL, if you wanted to give it a try. 
Would be interesting if that would turn out to be faster. One advantage 
certainly would be that it would use another core on today's multi-core 
systems, whereas SQLite is running inside the single LMS thread.

i'm on of those guys willing to throw more RAM on the issue. I'm also
willing to test (with you) how much more RAM is really needed to speed
up the things. I have 32 GB which are more or less usable. But i also
think, there must be a break even point where adding more RAM doesn't
help anymore.

Yes, There is a problem.  The plugin V1 used a screen scraper technique

It'll need an update to plugin - if it is a small change, it'll be

It's only the live radio that uses the repeatingstreams so a track can
represent each programme,  and its the plugin that is deciding the exact
duration for those.   (The audio-on-demand tracks aren't provided with
an absolutely accurate duration, so for those it does have to adjust
once the stream is underway, but those don't use repeatingstreams).
I've had a quick look, and it should be relatively straight forward for
me to add the duration at the "getNextTrack" stage, so I'm going to try
and set up something to test that on the upnpbridge later.  I may as
well still have a go at that, I'll let you know how that goes.
