Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Annouce: Squeeze Control, a squeezebox remote app, is now available for Android

2022-03-16 Thread RonM


I changed my router, the new one is up and running. My mobile is
connected to the outer. My pCp is ethernet connected to the router. I
can see LMS on my main computer.

What I can't get to work is the LMS server in Squeeze Control. It
actually showed the correct server name in server settings, but reported
repeatedly that it can't connect to server. I had it look for a new
server, it was showing correct server name.

After that bit of work with server settings, it just stopped working. I
try to start it, and immediately get an android message that Squeeze
Control keeps stopping. Can't even get into it to try and fix. 

What to do?

I'm sure I used to be able to change the order of tracks in a playlist

I bought Squeeze Control for Android a long time ago, and recently
thought of getting the version for Windows10 from the Windows store.
Does my purchase of the Android version cover use of the Windows
version, or do I have to buy it again?

There is odd behaviour happening that I haven't noticed before. I've not
made any changes to preferences.

If I have something playing on my Touch, and then my mobile blanks after
a few minutes, when I bring it back SC defaults to a different player.
For example, my Radio, which is turned off so no now-playing is shown. I
have to reselect the Touch to get control back. And a few minutes later
repeat. 

"Now playing at show " is selected in general preferences, but when the
Touch is reselected, it doesn't go to now playing. 

Can you help?

I'm having some difficulty with search, particularly with song search.
For instance, if I search songs for "crazy", I get a timeout saying list
can't be retrieved. I was looking for covers of that Brenda Lee song,
and at one point saw that there were 186 items, but never got the list.
Other song searches with fewer target items work, as do searches for
albums or artists.

When I do that search, it generally results in an app failure, requiring
a reboot. 

Any suggestions?

Umm, blush, avoid eye contact. Smack self on head.

Of course, somehow I'd disabled Always Connected, and re-enabling solved
the problem.

Unfortunately, I don't think these are solutions.

The disconnect from the current player, and reversion to the default
player, happens instantly, as soon as there is navigation away from the
focus on the current player. If I minimize to check email, if I let it
sit long enough for the pre-set sleep to happen, whatever. The instant
the the focus is away from the current player, everything reverts to the
default.

Of course, I maintain my mobile at current-version. I don't think it's
an Android issue.

One of the reasons is that the problem seems to arise only with
SqueezeCntrl. I bought Orange Squeeze years ago, still installed,
although I much prefer SqueezeCntrl, including that it's still supported
(thank you, thank you, thank you). I decided to fire up Orange Squeeze,
and it stlll works fine, aside from its faults. It never lost focus on
the current player at all. On my mobile I'm using it with SqueezePlayer,
without problem, as there are no problems with using it on other
secondary players.

So, I'm kind of at a loss. The issue really does much reduce my
listening enjoyment. It's quite possible, perhaps probably, that there
is something I could do to solve the problem, something I'm currently
doing wrong, but I just don't know what it could be.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Annouce: Squeeze Control, a squeezebox remote app, is now available for Android

2019-01-01 Thread RonM


There has recently (within the last few months) been an annoying new
behavior in SqueezeCntrl. I have specified my transporter as the primary
player for the system, but sometimes use a Touch, and often use SBPlayer
(for headphone listening mainly). 

The irritation is that when I'm using, say, the Touch, and the mobile
goes to sleep, or I navigate to email or something, when I next go to
SqueezeCntrl it has defaulted to the Transporter, and I have to go
through the routine of re-selecting the Touch in order to get any
control, or to see what's currently playing, etc. Same thing happens
with SBPlayer.

Meanwhile, the music continues to play.

You'd think that when you go back to SqueezeCntrl, it would display the
currently playing title without my having to route back through the
player selection. Odd.

Perhaps there is an obvious fix. If so, please tell!

Well maybe, but that seems weird. After all, the mobile has just gone to
sleep, but the same music is still playing over the Touch. Why wouldn't
SqueezeCntrl just wake up and display what is currently playing? It's
not like I shut it down or anything.

I posted this in the Windows UWP thread, wrong place. So re-posting
here:

SqueezeCntrl has started to revert to the primary player when the
Android device has blanked screen or gone to sleep.

My main player is a Transporter; a secondary player is a Touch. I often
use the Touch for close listening away from the rest of the family.

When I select the Touch and am listening to music, my mobile (on which
SqueezeCntrl is located) will after a few minutes blank screen or go to
sleep. When I start it up, SC has reverted to the default player, the
Transporter, and I have to re-select the Touch, go to My Music and
select the current track to get back to where I need to be. This is
quite annoying.

What can I do to fix? I can't seem to find anything in the controls.

I, too, tried the Angry Goat info address, and got the "can't connect"
message.

I don't use SBPlayer a whole lot, although it's far and away my fave for

Is it possible to control this behavior? I can't find a way.

Well, given that the mobile plays the file just fine on its own, that
Squeeze Player does too, and SB Player doesn't, it seems it really is
down to SBP. 

In the total scheme of things it is a minor annoyance, but an annoyance

More evidence. Squeeze Player, which I hadn't used for a very long time
because SBPis generally better, played the 48kHz files just fine. So
the problem is NOT the mobile.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spotify Premium Plugin (Beta)

2017-02-03 Thread RonM

I'm late to the game, don't yet even have a Spotify account but am
planning to.  One question, which might be answered somewhere in the
600+ pages, if so apologies:

The first post appears to be edited so as to be up to date, but
specifies LMS 7.6 or 7.7 (which are official releases). What about 7.8
and especially 7.9? I suspect that the plugin will work with these, too,
but since it doesn't say so I wonder.

This is not the case.  I loaded the 48khz files onto the mobile, and
played with a local app.  They worked just fine.

So, to recap, I have some files with a 48khz sampling rate (most of my
many thousands of files are 44.1, with a few at 96, some at odd rates;
the majority of my files are lossless flacs; the ones in question are
MP3s with a bit rate of 320kbps).  Although ALL other files work fine
with SBPlayer, the ones with the 48khz rate do not.  I get an error from
SBP saying "unsupported sample rate", an error I don't get with any
other sampling rate.

At least one other player app plays the 48khz files without difficulty;
as noted, the mobile itself can play the files when installed and played
locally.  It's only SBP that seems unable to play these files.

It's a mystery.

I'll try that as soon as I get around to it, but I should note that SBP
reports that the default sampling rate for the device is 48khz.

That's not the problem. I just tried Squeeze Player on my mobile, which
I forgot I had installed, and it worked fine with the 48kHz files. I
prefer SBP, but at least I have a backup for the problem files.

Hmm.  Very odd.  I'm using 7.9 and have never tweaked those settings in
any version.  I didn't change any default settings on SBP when I
installed it. All other sample rates work fine on SBP, and all sample
rates (including 48) work fine on other players, including the emulator
SqueezePlay on my Surface4. It's only 48 on SBP that is a problem. 

Perhaps I have an older version of SBP.  I'll check the store and
install a newer one if available.  I'll also check the server settings
just to be sure,but I can't imagine there is anything untoward there
under the circumstances.  Is it possible that the particular mobile I
have is the problem?  I'm thinking of SBP reporting that 48 was the
default sampling rate of the device, although I don't actually know what
that means.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Annouce: SB Player, a software Squeezebox player app for Android.

2016-12-27 Thread RonM

Some additional info.

My mobile has a Qualcom 2.5 ghz quad core processor (Experia V3
Compact). SBP easily accommodates my few 96 khz files, but chokes on 48,
reporting an unsupported sample rate.

In SBP settings, it's reported that the native sampling rate of the
device is 48; since almost all of my music is 44.1, I left that as the
default setting. I haven't tried resetting to 48 since that would
require resampling of almost everything except for the recent eMusic
downloads. 

So I really don't understand the issue here. Help appreciated.

I've been trying to play some recent eMusic downloads. A number of these
have sample rates at 48kHz, and it seems SBPlayer doesn't support that.
Hence the message "unsupported sample rate" when I try to play on my

Any solution other than downsampling?

Sorry, was unclear. It was SB Player on my Android mobile, not an
"external" player. Hence my holiday post-feast confabulation. Will seek

I found the same problem with a different eMusic download, a recent

I was all set to listen to a new album, Shine A Light by Billy Bragg and
Joe Henry. Purchased from eMusic.com.  Got the message "unsupported
sample rate". It's a 320kbps album but as it turns out at an
unconventional sample rate of 48 kHz. Unconventional but not unheard of,
and eMusic is pretty mainstream.

What's the story here? I'd have thought 48khz  would be pretty much
automatic.

Thanks, I understand.  When I was writing my note I actually had the
thought that the controller is not directly engaged with a player, so
couldn't monitor state -- but thought that perhaps it could obtain that
state from LMS.  In any event, I understand that not identifying any
device as "default" will solve my problem, with only minor
inconvenience.  I appreciate the explanations.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Annouce: Squeeze Control, a squeezebox remote app, is now available for Android

2016-08-09 Thread RonM

Surely there is a difference between "going into the background" when
you have selected a song to listen to and then gone on to do other
things on the mobile, pending the need to select another song, and
"going into the background" when no music is currently being played and
the connected player is just quiescent? The former is not a case of
"nothing to do".  Perhaps there could be some logic that left the app
"on" and pointed to the last selected player, until some period of
inactivity on the app had passed.  The default for this quiescent period
should be longer than the standard album length.  

I think this would be particularly useful when the mobile is being used
as the player, as in SB Player.  If you are listening via the mobile,
you are probably doing something else on it as well, and it's just very
annoying to have to navigate through the menus to get back to SB Player
when the playlist ends.

I appreciate the battery-saving feature of the current arrangement, and
the fact that you can choose to leave it running in the background,
thereby avoiding the problem, but don't think that this is always the
user-friendly way.

As to the point of a default player, of course that is a good thing to
have, but using a different player from time to time is the norm, and
not outlier-behavior.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Annouce: Squeeze Control, a squeezebox remote app, is now available for Android

2016-07-30 Thread RonM

I generally love Squeeze Control, but am quite frustrated by some app
behaviour.

In particular, when I am playing something and navigate away to do
something else while listening and then go back to the app, it ALWAYS
returns to the default player, even when that one is not active and
turned off. For instance,  I've been using SB Player to listen via
headphones, I go out to read something on the Web and then return to SC,
it opens with the Transporter, my default, and shows whatever was last
playing on the TP as "Now Playing". SBP is still actually playing, the
TP is off and I have to go through the routine of rechoosing SBP to see
the correct.playlist or choose new music, etc.

Is this a feature or a bug? Is there a way to make it work properly?

I'm not looking for a refund and a repurchase.  Lord knows how you
expect to make back your investment anyway.  I was more interested in
what I can expect if I don't get the new-named version.  Is there any
current difference in functionality? Don't know if you are intending to
continue supporting/modifying the app, so since the current version
(1.6.2) I have installed works fine, I'm not rushing to change it.  If I
do I'm happy to just pay the ticket again, if it means there will be
ongoing support/revisions.

Re BB10, I don't actually have a BB any more since my company insisted I
needed to go Android or iPhone, but I might in the future hence the
query.  Whether SC works with BB10 would influence whether got a BB
handset, so knowing would be useful.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Jazz FM changed again!

2015-02-12 Thread RonM

This is kind of off-topic, but I have always found the references to
Jazz FM to be confusing.  As it turns out, this is because there are two
discrete and separate stations using the same name.

JazzFM in Toronto is at 91.1 on the radio dial, and online.  It's a
non-profit operation, with an extensive educational programming and only
4 minutes of advertising an hour.  Excellent station.  See
http://www.jazz.fm/index.php/about-mainmenu-131/about-jazzfm91-mainmenu-132.

Then there is the other JazzFM, which doesn't seem to have a live
broadcast, but whose website is at www.jazzfm.com.

It's complicated by the fact that BOTH have an evening program called
Dinner Jazz.

When I listened to the radio in my car (before flash drives), I listened
to the Toronto station all the time. Worth checking out online for those
of you not in Toronto.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Squeeze Remote - stopped working

2014-09-09 Thread RonM

I've posted this in a couple of others places, hopefully will be seen
here.  

Squeeze Remote, a Win8/8.1 app for things like Surface tablets, has
stopped working.  It seems likely to be an update of 8.1 that caused the
problem. App starts, then immediately stops.  Reinstalling after
uninstalling, rebooting, etc, all don't work to fix the problem

The publisher, 7illusions, is not responsive (doesn't help that their
support email on the MS store site has an error, an "s" at the end of
".com", as in ".coms".  

Anyone tell me anything about this.  The app is still for sale on the MS
website.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Windows 8 App

2014-09-09 Thread RonM

I'm having problems with Squeeze Remote.  Has stopped working -- after a
recent Win8.1 update, SR starts but immediately stops and disappears. 
Nothing I do (uninstall/reinstall, etc etc) seems able to help. 
7illusions is not answering support queries (and their email address on
the MS store SqueezeRemote page does not work, being misspelled with
.coms, including the s, at the end).

Anyone help with this?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Blackberry Playbook app?

2011-11-28 Thread RonM

There is another app called Music2Touch, which seems to have had more
recent development activity.  Given the recent firesale of Playbooks (a
great many have been sold recently in many markets), I'd say there will
actually be some emerging demand for such applications.

See:

I'd love that plugin!  Would use it with my audiophile snobby friends,
maybe even do a an A/B test, with A being the "vinyl" version (I'd have
to pretend to fiddle with the turntable).  When they talked about the
wonderful warmth of vinyl I'd point out that, really, it's all just
distortion and noise.  Which it's all right to like, but let's call a
spade a spade.

Yes, someone, get on this please.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Remove played songs

2010-09-28 Thread RonM

I don't really want to play around much with plug-ins, and am a bit
unclear how to use SQLPlaylists and Tracstats on my XP server.  I'd
much prefer to have the simple functionality apparently available in
the removed played songs plugin.  If it can be made to work.

I'll check the server error log and see if there is any clue there,
report back here.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Remove played songs

2010-09-21 Thread RonM

I've installed Erland's Remove Played Songs (now being maintained by
Eric Koldinger).  i do have the newest version installed, and the
current version of SS.  However, it doesn't work.  Doesn't seem to do
any harm, but played songs are not being removed from playlists.

Suggestions?

R.
