Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Material Skin not showing the queue controls on my Desktop PC
Hello Jim and others, Had another attempt to run once I understood it doesn't effect the overall install and that one can revert to normal operation. Perhaps some quirk of my browser / cache but on a third attempt it seems to be behaving and appears to offer the options I expected. I confess I've not really touched the sytem for a year or so and am not a programmer/linux expert although technically competent by dint of hardware electronics experience , early microprocessors (worked at Psion on manufacturing test sytem design and DAB radio) I've reinstalled the server more than once but each time I've done so everything including the O/S , Server etc has moved on a few iterations and scope for issues to catch the newbie out. Last a couple of times I recall I had to install Perl , which was a new requirement as I understood things. I've a manual script/procedured that I've put together and includes modifying the fstab file: /dev/sda1 /media/music vfat rw,user,umask=000,uid=112,gid=65534 0 0 This came from an early blog/article on installing Squeezeboxserver on a Pi. It's worked for me . In truth I beleive it gives permission to the server to access the music stored on my external hard drive. Is this correct. I'd welcome any comments about the simplest route to install today and access music on an external device (1 Terabyte Hard Drive with 1700 Flac CDs). Thanks once again. bayard1music's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=51497 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=117171 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

I may well try once more if you believe it should work. I'm using a PC indeed plus Squeezer on an Android Phone. It looks very slick but seemed slightly non functional as my images hopefully showed up. I'll give it one more go.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Material Skin not showing the queue controls on my Desktop PC
OK, thanks for all that help just now. Seems to be back to my old solution. I've used this for 10 years or so , with two Touch Units and and today two Squeezebox Radios. Unfortunately not as familiar or versed with all of the sytems options as it's worked fine as is with no need to change. I do like the look of the Material Skin and would pursue if it worked as I think it should. What do you think happened here for me, the missing Queue options and the loss of the 'server settings'. I'd be keen to give it another go now i know how to revert . That revert perhaps should be on the front page of the material skin info. just in case it doesn't work for others ? bayard1music's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=51497 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=117171 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

But unless I've done something wrong I don't seem to have the options to set up the Que, don't have Favourites either but don't have the options (server) to remove.

How do I remove this 'material skin'. I don't seem to have the menu option to remove. I think this needs setting up on a seperate Pi for me and checking out before switching. I assumed I could just revert but now don't have access to remove the plug in.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Material Skin not showing the queue controls on my Desktop PC
Just stumbled across this fine new interface for the Squeezebox Server. I've now installed on my Raspberry Pi 2, But for me, I can't see any of the Queue controls i.e. clear playlist , save playlist, as shown in the manual on page https://cdn.statically.io/gh/d6jg/material-documentation/master/html/QueueArea.html I seem to have only 'no shuffle' and 'no repeat' So at present this isn't useable for me as I can't add or remove albums as I see it . I might be doing something wrong but have the remainder of the intereface apparently working as it should do.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)
Hello Michael, Guess this is the right thread to add to. I'm also having difficulty running Spotify via my Touch units and Squeezebox radio. My testing so far has been carried out with my office based Touch unit with direct ethernet connection. LMS is at version 8.1.2 - 1614990085 Spotty is 4.4.8 running on an Debian Buster on a Raspberry Pi 2 single board computer. Touch firmware is Firmware: 8.0.1-r16844 Connection is 100Mbs Virgin download , typically not with known issues (for me). I keep seeing error messages in the Plugin , i.e. "Access Rate limit exceeded for: me/player?market=from_token; retry after 6 seconds." Typically a track from the que will play but then stop. I've seen reference in this on this thread and have adjusted from 320Kbps to 160kps . Is there anything else I try at this point , or is there a fix in the wings ? Thanks in advance for any assistance. bayard1music's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=51497 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111923 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Community Firmware for Squeezebox Radio/Touch/Controller and LMS 8
Hello, I'm obviously doing something wrong here ? I've upgraded the server to LMS 8.0.1 and have selected the community firmware plug in and enabled in 'Advanced' tab. Now on the Squeezebox Radio I've installed the 'Patch Installer' and attempted to select the 'compare versions check' (I understand necessary to correctly compute that there is a later version than the current 7.7.3.) However I'm met with this patch is not 'compatible with server 8' (sorry from memory) I've seen a thread here: https://bit.ly/2X2XGw5 So am I correct I need to temp' connect the radio first to an earlier LMS (than 8) in order to first install the patches ? It's sort of contrary to the initial intro to installing the updated radio firmware if I'm now correct.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Community Firmware for Squeezebox Radio/Touch/Controller and LMS 8
Hello, Forgive me if this is already covered. I've just replaced my rasberry pi server with Logitech Media Server Version: 8.0.1 - 1608617100 I've installed the community radio plugin on the server. I've also installed the 'Version Comparison' Patch on the Squeezebox radio and ticked the 'reload after upgrade' option box too on the radio. When I attempt a manual software upgrade on the Squeezebox Radio it says 'it's up to date' and offers only 7.7.3 to over write. I've previously reset the radio and powered it down. Is there something I need to do for this to work please? If possible a 'tidy' list of all steps would possibly help. I'm keen to try out some of the fixes in particular your fix to the ICY metadata.

Check the box on left hand side and click Apply. * LMS may need restarting. * If successful BBCiPlayer and BBCiPlayer plugins should appear in the "Active Plugins" list === I can get as far as seeing 'bpa - BBCiplayer with BBC DASH support' on the screen, but no plugins are listed. i.e. I cannot see BBiplyaer and BBCiplayerExtra. I've carried out a full restart to the Raspberry Pi with no effect I've still got a number of old plugins , I assume these have to be removed?
