Hi - I'd love to be able to use SqueezeIR, looks like a really great app, but I'm struggling to get the necessary codes for my Denon DM-37, which comes with the RC-1097 remote. I see from previous posts that Denon seems to cause a few problems. Is there anyone on here who has managed to get this to work and is happy to share the details? Alternatively can anyone suggest how I can get the codes myself? The Nevo software on my iPAQ can learn them and emulate the Denon remote, but I don't see a way to extract the codes from it. My laptop has an IR receiver for controlling windows media centre, again I don't know if it can be used to capture the codes.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Nominations for Recommended 3rd Party Plugins
+ 1 for Spotify I love it, but then I probably fit right into a "typical" SB user niche so you'd expect that, but I think it could be a real crossover app too. In the 6 months since I installed a squeezebox duet my wife has shown no interest in it at all, apart from registering mild approval that there are no longer CD cases scattered around the house. Then I showed her the Spotify app. And that was the last I saw of the controller for the rest of the day, and the next day... Ditto with the kids, I now regularly find I can't use it in the kitchen because someone else is using the stream in the living room. -- Hobgoblin Hobgoblin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36018 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=56928 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spotify Premium Plugin (Beta)
Hi - I've been trying to create some SB playlists with a mixture of tracks on spotify as well as ones I own, but I'm struggling. First, the Save current playlist doesn't work, it creates a playlist, but it's empty. As a workaround I found I can create a playlist by adding tracks to it one at a time, which works but is a little slow. Then the second problem kicks in, which is that when the database is refreshed all the playlists are deleted and reloaded from the .m3u files. Looking at the log it appears that the scanner validates that tracks exist on the database, as the Spotify tracks don't it rejects them all, leaving just my local files on the playlist. I think the first problem is related, looking at the log I think "save current playlist" uses a temporary .m3u file, which would also fail to load. I can see that this isn't a problem with the Spotify plug-in, but as this is where it's manifested I'm posting here in the hope that someone else has come across it and might have a workaround. -- Hobgoblin Hobgoblin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36018 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79706 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spotify Premium Plugin (Beta)
Hi Triode Still using this amazing plugin all the time. But just recently I've started getting an intermittent problem where I start listening to a playlist, plays a few tracks then it gets to the end of a track, then stops rather than load the next track. If I press Next on the remote it gets going again, so an annoyance rather than a showstopper.

I've had the same missing tracks thing. Take a look at the albums the
missing tracks are on in the Spotify desktop client and you'll see the
track is listed but greyed out. I tried the Kurt Elling one, but I'll
bet they all look the same.
I think it happens when the track is available in some countries and
not others. Also the position seems to change from time to time, I've
added tracks to playlists and found them go unavailable after a few
weeks.

I've attached how it looks to me - some are available, some are not. I don't know why it happens, but I see it quite often. I assumed it's just that there are sometime a number of rights holders involved, especially for cover versions.

The official Logitech Spotify plugin also allows streaming to more than one device. You need a Radio or Touch, and that means can stream to multiple devices using the official plugin, but not simultaneously to a device using Triode's plugin.
