The only link I found to 2.0.4 zip file does not work. Could you post a new one? My linux skills are non existent so I'm not sure I would pull through (although this is a good time to finally learn something) Could you provide a repository link that point to that old version?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Skip track when silent
Is there a plugin that can skip forward to the next track when it's been silent for, let's say 10 seconds? The use for this would be to auto skip when you have songs with a hidden track inside. i.e. a few minutes of no sound followed by the next song. -- markstrom markstrom's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17691 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89633 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Could you give me an example? I've seen the progress bar briefly but it disappears really fast, so I guess it's fast at caching. I have a really fast server and network. I can browse by artist, album, new music etc, and all information is there. When I enter the search page, and I type, let's say "dino" for "Dinosaur Jr" or "zep" for "Led Zeppelin". Usually I hit the search button but I guess you do not have to do that. The keyboard disappears and then nothing but the search box at top and an empty result page for about 5-6 seconds. Since it finds the information I guess it's local in the app? If I make the same search again it take just as long to complete. Also when I quit the app and opens it again, the art work does not appear to be cached since it has to load again.

I did this configuration before I read the Setup kids room SqueezeBox Guide at http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Setup_kids_room_SqueezeBox I have some players most distinguished being my music vs. kids music and audiobooks, located in different directories. Using MultiLibrary I set up three different libraries using only "included directory" and one dependent library including the other three libraries. I set the dependent library to the active one. Next using CustomBrowse made some menus using "Library" and "exclude from players". Then I enabled menus in CustomBrowse and finally displaying them in the Players>Menus settings. Everything worked swell and I ended up with my players using a normal structure (New artists, New albums, Artist) not including the kids stuff. The kids player got the simples possible menu Audiobooks>Album_name and Music>Artists_name. This worked fine for a few days and now suddenly the menus disappears from the kids SqueezeBox, I reconfigured the SqueezeCenter settings but the menus were no longer available in "Inactive menu items" It seems that Refresh libraries sometimes bring back the menus.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] first alpha of SyncOptions for SqueezeCenter 7
I've been running v0.7a8 for some weeks now and had no problems whatsoever. It runs fine on SC 7.2 as well. There is a feature that would fit into SyncOptions. 1. Player A is powered on and playing a song 2. Player B is not playing any song (or powered off) 3. Using player A to synchronize with player B. This causes player A to (correctly) stop playing and the players are in sync. What I would like to happen is that SyncOption should detect that player B is not playing anything and instead Sync player B with player A. Or is this something handled by the new synchronization in SC 7.3 ? -- markstrom markstrom's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17691 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42575 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

This is the way I did it using the now playing button: 1. Locate the Default.map file in SqueezeCenter\server\IR directory 2. Copy it and name it something such as "Custom_remote.map" or similar 3. Open Custom_remote.map and locate section "#playing display modes" 4. Add the line "now_playing.hold = datetime" and save 5. In SqueezeCenter settings "Players>Remote" change "Remote Button Functions" to Custom_remote and hit "Apply" 6. Restart SqueezeCenter 7.
