Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Squeezelite-X

2021-02-11 Thread jimbobvfr400


I love this app and have been using it for a little while now.

Slightly tongue in cheek suggestion but have you ever considered
learning to program for MacOS? SqueezeliteX is one of the only things I
miss in MacOS. I've gone back to Squeezeplay for the moment which is
fine TBH but Squeezelite-OSX would be marvellous

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Squeezelite-X

2019-08-13 Thread jimbobvfr400


I've just returned to the LMS/Squeezebox system and TBH in struggling to
remember why I kind of stopped using mine (I was seduced by the ease of
streaming to Chromecast Audios using Google play music and gradually
used LMS less and less)

Anyway I have to say Squeezelite-X is awesome. I'm very impressed. I
always had Squeezeplay for Windows as an extra player on my PC, either
for local playback or controlling other SB devices but so far SLX is so
much better.

I also realise it's possible because of others too (Squeezelite itself
and of course the material skin) so they also get my thanks too.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iOS App With Offline Support? (Spotify-like)

2014-11-18 Thread jimbobvfr400

Yes you can do something similar on Android, however once downloaded you
can't then use Orange Squeeze to play them, it's download only.

Personally I have just less than the 20K limit for personal files on
Google Music so I've uploaded them all the the Google servers, the
Google Music app on Android at least does offline music properly, just
click the push pin and push again to remove again. I'm not sure if
offline music is a function on the iOS version but worth a look.

Would the app run on any squeezeplay based player or just genuine
hardware.

I have several O2 Jogglers running Squeezeplay on a 7" touchscreen that
is able to install the applets, obviously Spotify for example won't work
on 3rd party hardware but it will install.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Squeezer: open source Android Squeezeserver remote control

2014-10-18 Thread jimbobvfr400

I've just joined in the beta program.

For me the biggest deal breaker so far is the complete lack of support
for the new configurable 2 artists list in LMS 7.9.

If you're not sure what I mean, previous versions of LMS had the option
to set the artist list to show either artists with albums only so you
didn't get loads of random artists with 1 track on a compilation album
cluttering the display.

Latest LMS has the option to have 2 artist lists, Album Artists and All
Artists.

Squeezer just shows a single artist list which shows all artists.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] DenonSerial plugin thread

2014-09-19 Thread jimbobvfr400

Just a thought and this is based on using IR based control systems not
rs232. A lot of receivers will accept a source command when off/standby.
So for example if I press CD on the remote my amp will turn on and be on
the CD input. If I use power on with IR my amp also needs a short wait
before I can then send the source command.

If there's a source command via the serial control then it might be
worth a try.

Yes its possible. Squeezelite or SqueezePlay would both do the job.
Squeezelite is headless so just a player that runs in the terminal or

as the menus on a Touch or Radio.

I keep my duplicate mp3 files separate and not scanned by LMS.

There's 2 possibilities if you want to use mp3 for remote streaming,

1. Use bit rate limiting and your server can transcode to mp3 using the
original flac files.
2. The latest 7.9 nightlies now have an option to directly browse and
play from the file system without needing them scanned and in your
library, using this browse method doesn't add the tracks to your library
either.

The Logitech app is very similar to SqueezePlay. I disagree though I
think OrangeSqueeze, squeeze commander and the other 3rd party
alternatives for Android, iOS and others are far better for phones or
tablets.

I also find the lack of scroll wheel for scrolling quite annoying when
using SqueezePlay on my PC, I do still prefer it to the web interface in
the main but if there was a better alternative for PC I would use it so
I am watching this thread with interest. I'll definitely try it if a

Correct, with the DLNA plugin enabled both LMS will appear as a server
and your SB players will appear as a target to play to in your DLNA
control app.

Using LMS as the server would be pointless as it would just be the same
music. I have an otherwise unused DLNA server on my NAS that I use to
point to a folder of tunes not in my normal library.

I don't recall anything like that with smartmix. The scan analyses your
music as an extra step in the process then uses that data when you
initiate a mix.

I wonder if it might be worth doing a full clear and scan and checking
this completes and has the smartmix scan part listed in the results.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] RC5 codes for IR Blaster

Did you get anywhere with this OP?

I've also had another thought for a workaround I've used myself with an
amp I couldn't find any discreet power commands for.

Does the Linn power on if you issue a source command, I.e. press the aux
button on the remote and it may power on with the aux input selected.
This can be your on command, then simply sent aux followed by power as
the off command.

You can use a program called makehex to do this. Its available on the

If you have any questions or issues using it or finding it I can have a
go for you (I'm a bit of a remote geek with several Philips Pronto

Won't be able to get to my PC to try it until the weekend though.

Regarding versions for other OS, I agree a Windows version would be very
welcome by me. however I'm not sure how necessary an Android (or iOS for
that matter) version would be. We already have quite a few options for
phones and tablets although If it retains the elegant simplicity the

very well as a widget in Android.

Actually there's a good idea, if iPeng is controlling another device
have a preview option in the context menu that plays the track locally.

Since I posted I've installed it and given it a whirl. Excellent, I can
see all songs I've played without cluttering my last.FM profile with
stuff played on the radio, so excellent and a big thumbs up.

Just one more question if I may, the settings to exclude part, will that
ignore the whole song or just strip that part from the entry. For
example Absolute Radio in the attached screenshot. If I add "adbreak"
and "back-soon" will that eliminate most non song entries in the list?

[image: http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/16/zyzuje9y.jpg]

I have noticed Absolute radio (the classic rock channel at least) seem
to send artist and title as the name of the song and the station name as
the artist. Not a problem as it still works.

I agree on Google music BTW. Excellent service/app and free to boot.

Just an FYI if you also get SqueezePlayer for your Android device then
Orange Squeeze (or indeed any other Android controller, including the
crappy Logitech one) can do playback. Orange Squeeze has built in
integration for SqueezePlayer so it works as if built in whereas you'd
need to start it manually if using other controllers. It does work very
well.

Regarding the download function, Flacs work fine on my devices but I
tend to use Cyanogenmod based ROMS so don't know about the Samsung music
app. Orange Squeeze does have transcoding settings though so even if the
files on the server are FLAC you can set it to DL MP3 anyway.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] 1st generation iPod Touch

2013-11-27 Thread jimbobvfr400

Hi

Having a clear out in the jink drawer and I found my old iPod.

Is there any SB control software that will run on it? Even better is
there anything that will enable playback. I'm guessing not as it only
runs iOS 3 I think but thought it worth asking.

Not iPeng but I often do the same on my Android phone. I even setup up
external access using dyndns and port forwarding and then realised my
crappy broadband providers router doesn't allow me to connect via this

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Android apps that work with Squeezelite

2013-10-09 Thread jimbobvfr400

Both of those mentioned Android controllers are superior to the free
Logitech one IMO. I have both and regularly use both so I wouldn't say
either is better, just different.

OrangeSqueeze

Still in active development, you can also download a preview version of
the next major release with some nice new features.
Nice and streamlined to use
Good integration with SqueezePlayer

Squeeze Commander

Development abandoned AFAIK. Still works well mind.
Less intuitive initially, but quickly doesn't become a problem
MUCH better facilities for building on the fly playlists. There's a play
more button which sets what clicking on music tracks does, Play, add to
end, play next and open context menu are all quickly selectable options.
This is my main reason for not switching to Orange squeeze permanently.


Both of them offer loads of extra stuff like downloading and are just a
more pleasant experience than the Logitech controller app.

The 2nd point at least could be achieved by scrobbling to last.FM.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] WD MyBook Live NAS

2013-04-06 Thread jimbobvfr400

I have to say using the apps on my phone or tablet takes it to another
level IMO. The Logitech one is alright plus the price is right but
either of the other 2 are well worth the money, squeeze commander
especially because you have a button to change what happens when you
click a track, set it to add to end of the current playlist and you can
just pass it round and get your guests to add tracks to the current
playlist at will, no more wiping out your current playlist when trying
to add tracks to the end. 

I don't know if it's of interest but did you know you can get an app
called squeeze play for android, it doesn't have an interface as such
but turns your device into another squeezebox, which can then be
controlled just like any other squeezebox, including the apps previously
mentioned above or even the Web interface or another player. 

I have a dock for my Nexus plugged into an old set of Yamaha 2.1 Pc
speakers I use in my bedroom, very cheap way of adding another player to
your setup

If you're running a recent version of LMS then you can enable the DNLA

You won't be able to control a DNLA player using the Web interface or
usual remote software but controlled directly they will be able to
access your music.

I.E. Premium music services and Internet radio stations that aren't

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Smart Mix plugin

2013-02-05 Thread jimbobvfr400

I'm having a weird thing with scanning that appears to be caused by the
smart mix plug in.

Basically although its probably not recommended I'm using the LMS UPNP
plug in to scan and play videos to my PS3, mainly MP4 and Divx. To
achieve this I have 2 media folders added, both of them being shares on
a seperate NAS. The Media share is set for just Video and the Music
share set just for music.

Without Smartmix installed I can use the seperate scan buttons to just
scan the media folder, Because I mainly download and watch TV series
that wont make it to the UK for a while this gets used most days, on the
other hand adding new music isnt quite so frequent. Scanning the media
folder only takes approx a minute or less.

As soon as the Smartmix plugin is installed clicking on either seperate
scan button seems to initiate a full re-scan of both media folders,
adding a good 10 minutes to the scan times.

Its not a massive problem more a minor irritant and worth it for the
plugin.
