[SlimDevices: Plugins] Product Announcement - Squeeze Mobile
First I've been a lurker since I discovered Squeeze Center. After I discovered it and started using it at home I started using it at the office. I'm not always at my desk so I figured there had to be a way for me to listen on my iPhone. After I got it working on my phone I thought hey why not in the car while I'm driving, etc., etc. To my surprise there wasn't anything when I started so I began work on what's now Squeeze Mobile. Now for my shameless plug. It's finally available from the iTunes App store. More info can be found here http://www.techadvantagenow.com/v1/products/SqueezeMobile.aspx If you have any questions about it let me know.

When a player is Connected even with nothing in the playlist it will show 1. I've submitted a new version with a buffering indicator that will help clue users into that. Push Squeeze on the player, then add some items to its list. When it's first registered it will be empty. Let me know if that doesn't do it for you. One of the challenges I had is when Squeeze Center was made no one probably ever thought about mobile 3G devices connecting to it (did those exist then?). Squeeze Center registers devices by IP address or MAC. We can't easily programatically get the MAC and the IP address itself could possibly be different every single time you get on the 3G network so I didn't really see a way around having to pick your player as it is now. I'm thinking about writing a plugin (trying to avoid extra pieces) that will tell the player what Squeeze Center says it is. I did skimp out on the automatic server selection. 99% of the time I connect I'm not in my house or on the same network so auto discovery wouldn't work. I did realize however that I should have support for multiple servers as the IP I'm using while inside the house is not the same as when I'm outside and it's annoying to have to change it so I'm going to move those things out of the Settings Application and make a seperate view for adding servers manually or auto discovered ones under More. -- jtpowell jtpowell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31597 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66723 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Squeeze Mobile doesn't know or care about the intermediate format. All it cares is that it can consume stream.mp3 from your Squeeze Center.

If your VLC, WinAmp, Itunes, Windows Media Player, etc., etc., can't connect to your ReadyNAS then neither will Squeeze Mobile. I think your problem is ReadyNAS. One thing I noticed is not standard behavior is your ReadyNAS changing to https. Squeeze Center out of the box doesn't even support https or switching itself to whatever port https would be on. If you get your ReadyNAS working properly so it doesn't redirect and other players can consume stream.mp3 Squeeze Mobile will as well. Make sure when you test this with other players you use the port.

I don't experience that even when I'm not on the same network. Even 3G I don't get that. I can tell you why it happens though. If your center can not transcode and send at the rate it's being consumed the playing will end. I'll add some exception handling with an alert to clue folks into that. Change the bitrate in Squeeze Center and let me know if you still experience that. Unless your library is actually 320kbs there is really no need to have a bitrate higher then your library. You just end up making your Squeeze Center do needless work. There probably will not be Wake on Lan as again I'm not even on the Lan. Also I'm only using jsonrpc over port 9000 and don't intend to have users need access to anything other than that. For music services if there is a proper full iPhone app already available for the service I don't have any intent on implementing it. For me it doesn't make a lot of sense to include Slacker so you can listen on your device when slacker has a dedicated app to do just that. Same for Pandora, Last.FM etc. The only new features in the near future will be multiple servers and ssh tunneling. Squeeze Mobile been in the store about 2 days I'm not ready to start tossing in kitchen sinks just yet. My aim is to keep it simple and focus on what works and should work not kitchen sinks just yet.

Squeeze Mobile does not do any transcoding. All transcoding is done by the Squeeze Center. Squeeze Mobile simply consumes the stream in mp3 format. If you can consume the stream in mp3 format in Winamp, Itunes, Windows Media player then you can as well in Squeeze Mobile. I don't know about apple lossless but the screenshot on the web site and in the store of Hu Hu Hu - Ella Es Bonita is an mp4 250kbps right out of the Apple store. -- jtpowell jtpowell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31597 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66723 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Squeeze Mobile doesn't specifically focus on internet radio as there are literally already a gazillion (ok maybe a hundred)dedicated apps for that. That being said Squeeze Mobile consumes the server's stream.mp3 from Squeeze Center so if your stream can be heard by another media player that way it can by Squeeze Mobile as well. Using Squeeze Center I've made a playlist and put a stream address in there (not the .pls but the real address in the pls) and been able to listen to radio fine. I listened to Hot108 and some Classical from Shoutcast that way just to see if it was possible and it indeed is. -- jtpowell jtpowell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31597 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66723 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

The bitrate is not in SM at all but on your Squeeze Center. You are just able to select it from SM. Make sure you have LAME support. Go into your settings, advanced, and look at the file types. Make sure mp3 is native and make sure it is selected not disabled for all of your file types.

As remember not only does it have to transcode it has to transmit and do whatever else the nas is doing.

I believe your nas's report. If you can't write it you surely can't expect Squeeze Mobile to consume and play it. Remember Squeeze Mobile does not do any transcoding at all it consumes and plays what your Squeeze Center is capable of writing out. Your server is telling you that it can't write that output.

I don't think it's necessarily Squeeze Center either as I can transcode flac and so can many others. I don't have a NAS either. The JSONRPC though I'd like to investigate more with you. Go ahead and send me a PM with all the details you can and also let me know if you only get that RPC message when the server can't write out.

Right now the buffer size is set for lowest denominator 3G. In a future version one thing I will do is change the buffer based on the bitrate you select. That will help with the responsiveness a little. . Security does indeed work. Try with csrf off which is the default. If you'd like to test this with a username and password on my public test server let me know. -- jtpowell jtpowell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31597 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66723 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

If you want to access internet radio stations there are tons of apps dedicated solely for that purpose for the iPhone and most of them free of charge. -- jtpowell jtpowell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31597 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66723 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
