Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: SqueezeIR - A Generic Infra-Red Remote Control Applet for the Duet's SBC
Will the new version work with the controller's new firmware? Everything was working great for me, until my controller upgraded its firmware to 7.5.1 this evening. Now, the Squeeze IR app has vanished from my controller's menus. Logitech should really make the controller's firmware upgrade optional rather than mandatory/automatic. Pisses me off. -- fquails fquails's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31987 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66795 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

indifference_engine;524641 Wrote: @fquails: As promised (albeit a little later than I originally thought) is an xml config file suitable for use with SqueezeIR v0.4+ It should be broadly equivalent to your csv config files that you created for the old version. Both the xml and the lirc file need to go into the SqueezeIR\data folder on your controllers (the config contains codes for both of your amps). Any existing files in the data folder can be removed as they are just my config as an example. NB: The '.txt' at the end of the filenames will need to be removed but I had to add it to get round the forum's attachment rules. Once you've got SqueezeIR and the config files installed, restart the controller. Then go into SettingsSqueezeIR and set the default profile to whichever room you want and ensure the 'Use Player Profiles' box is selected. You may also want to go into SettingsHome Menu to put SqueezeIR on your Home Menu. Now exit the settings screen (SqueezeIR disables itself when in settings just in case you've done something silly like disabled the GO button!). Now for the fun bit... The controller should control the amp that's attached to the player that it's controlling. If you switch players then SqueezeIR will automatically switch its profile to the codes for the amp attached to the new player. The volume buttons will control the amp instead of the SBR and will work from any screen! The SqueezeIR menu contains the other functions as before but when in the menu the home button will turn the amp on (press) or off (hold), the add button will sleep the RX-397 and the volume buttons will continue to change the amp's volume. You can get to the SqueezeIR menu from the Home menu (if you've set it up as above) or from the Extras menu or quickly from anywhere by pressing back+home together. Holding back+home together on any screen takes you to SqueezeIR settings. I think the xml file format will begin to make a little more sense to you now you've got a real-life example that works with your kit. Feel free to modify it and experiment. If you make a change to the xml then you can use the 'Reload Configuration' option in SqueezeIR settings to activate the changes without needing a restart. I have found this feature a little temperamental though so you may need a restart anyway - try it and see! The RX-V1800 was a pig to configure as it uses two protocols and two device codes and one of them protocols is propietary (hence the need for the lirc file) but the RX-397 was pretty straight-forward. Obviously, I can't test that I've got all the codes correct so you may find a command that doesn't work if I've made a typo but I am confident that the files are at least syntactically correct. If there is one that doesn't work it should be relatively trivial for you to correct it especially as you've got the correct codes in the old files. Let us know how you get on... Hey, thanks!! I installed it and it worked perfectly! I then made a few changes for the RX-V1800 (I didn't make any changes for the RX-397). The changes related to the RX-V1800 are as follows: 1. Deleted the LIRC data file because I found the NEC format codes that work for Memory settings 1-4. Thus, I deleted the xml lines that referenced the LIRC data file, and replaced them with the appropriate lines using NEC codes. 2. Edited the Power On and Home key to do the following: Turn the receiver on, select SQUEEZEBOX as the input, and engage Memory 1. I found codes that activate Memory settings 1-4 with one press of a button, so it wasn't necessary to engage the Memory buttons twice to confirm. 3. Added TV command. When activated, the TV command switches the receiver's input to TV, and activates Memory 3. I sometimes have the TV on while listening to the Duet---when something interesting shows up on the screen, I activate TV on the SBController to hear the TV sound. 4. Added SQUEEZEBOX command. When activated, the receiver switches the input to SQUEEZEBOX, and activates Memory 1. This command is useful when returning to music listening from the TV, when the interesting part of the TV show is finished. 5. Added six volume presets. I saved six commonly used music listening volume settings I use for the RX-V1800. With the press of one button, I can set the volume to any one of the six specific settings. Hopefully I didn't forget to explain any other changes I made. I've attached the zipped, revised xml file showing the changes. Thanks again, indifference engine. I am having so much fun with my controllers' new functions. +---+ |Filename: SqueezeIR.zip| |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=9462| +---+ -- fquails

bluegaspode;522974 Wrote: Could you please post all your codes, so that other will have faster success ? Sure. Files are attached (hope this works) One is for the Yamaha RX-V1800, and the other is for the Yamaha RX-397. I didn't have time to change the descriptions and other explanations. Also, for the RX-V1800's power on command, I'll need to add a few more 'pauses' between the two consecutive Memory 1 commands because the second one occurs too soon--the RX-V1800 is still too busy powering up and doesn't see the second memory 1 command. It's a very minor fix which I'll do later this weekend. +---+ |Filename: RX-397.zip | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=9424| +---+ -- fquails fquails's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31987 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66795 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

indifference_engine;522998 Wrote: Glad you got it to work and sorry I didn't get back sooner. Are you using the old version that Blueaspode pointed you at, or the newer xml-based one? If your using the old one, post me the csv config file and I'll convert it into the newer xml format for you. The new xml version of the applet is more feature rich and allows you to use the volume buttons to control the amp without having to go into one of the special SqueezeIR screens first. Also, I'm assuming the two amps are in dirrefent rooms, each with a squeezebox attached? If so then the latest version can automatically switch ir codes to control the correct amp when you switch player on the SBreceiver. No problem! I'm using the old version--just edited it to work for my receivers. I posted the codes above (post251), and yeah, the newer version sure sounds even more fantastic. I'd LOVE to have that! The two amps are in two different rooms and the automatic switching you describe would be awesome. Please do convert my file to the new format, and thanks so much for doing that. fyi...RX-397 is connected to player named Bedroom RX-V1800 is conncected to player named FamilyRoom (one word) -- fquails fquails's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31987 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66795 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
