Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: slimfx - Flash-based Skin / Control App

2007-03-29 Thread dbls

As mentioned elsewhere, the current track doesn't seem to be updated
automatically.  I haven't seen this glitch mentioned: if the page is
refreshed, the compact track display is always presented, even if the
expanded display was in use.

I'd like to encourage the rapid inclusion of random mix support (a
third page, in addition to Library and Playlists, perhaps?).  In
addition, I think the option of toggling between the existing layout
and one in which the Now Playing list is expanded (i.e. as multiple
columns) would be a useful enhancement, especially when used with
Random Mix and the expanded track display.

The slimfx folder is in ...\server\HTML\, along with all the other
skins.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: slimfx - Flash-based Skin / Control App

2007-03-28 Thread dbls

If I double-click on SlimFX.html in Windows Explorer, I do get a page
with the flash player; of course, all the controls are empty, since it
wasn't called through SlimServer.

This is with either IE 7.0 on a recently reformatted WinXP machine, all
updates installed, or Firefox 2.0.0.3 on a month-old laptop (WinXP).

I have restarted SlimServer twice after installing SlimFX.  Clearing
the browser cache didn't help.

  Did you check the permissions? If your slimserver is running as a

I have WinXP Home; how are permissions set (or even queried) in that
OS?  A Google search finds how to do it in XP Pro, but not the home
version.

I'm not sure if this indicates that it worked, but when I type that,
the command window is cleared, the window caption changes from
D:\windows\system32\cmd.exe to Telnet localhost, and I'm in some
other command state in which anything I type is echoed back.

Taking a wild guess, I typed exit, and was returned to normal command
mode, with the message Connection to host lost displayed.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: slimfx - Flash-based Skin / Control App

2007-03-27 Thread dbls

I'd love to try this, but I'm getting either the default skin (if I use
...localhost:9000/slimfx) or a blank page (if I use
...slimfx/html/SlimFX.html).  WinXP, 6.5.1.  Windows Firewall is off,
so I'm not sure if port 9090 is the problem.  I couldn't find anything
in the Norton Antivirus (not Internet Security) settings for opening
ports.  Any suggestions?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] SoftSqueeze issues

2007-03-06 Thread dbls

I'm listening to my collection through headphones plugged into my laptop
(no speakers in the room where I work at home) and I've just switched
from Foobar to SoftSqueeze, which for some reason causes less stress on
the server.  (Slim.exe was pinning the CPU on the server every 10
seconds or so when generating stream.mp3, and there were 1 to 2 second
dropouts every few songs.)  I started out using the applet, but it was
a chore to restart if the connection to SlimServer broke.

So far so good.  Here are a few issues, and a question:

1.  The web page (Touch) for SoftSqueeze isn't always up-to-date.

2.  Clicking on the left side of the Transporter knob is a no-op.

3.  Right-clicking on the remote acts like clicking the left side of
the knob.

My question: for my purposes (basically, starting and stopping Random
Mix), I don't need the remote.  Can I hide it?

(SlimServer Version: 6.5.1 - 11206 - Windows XP - EN - cp1252)
