utgg - great patch, works a treat!!

It's been said many times in this thread already, but a big thanks to
the community for maintaining this plugin, especially Triode, bpa, utgg
for dedicating so much effort in getting this working.

We shouldn't underestimate the scale of this - we've now got the only
fully working iPlayer implementation outside the official BBC apps!!

Great thanks.

 The discussion about who might be able to update the plugin stalled,
 because at the time Listen Again was working. That is no longer the
 case.

Sitting on the side-lines and demanding an update isn’t very
constructive.

Until we see some stability from the BBC, there's really no point in
updating the plugin just yet.


BPA - you efforts, as always are appreciated. Many thanks.

2015-02-17 Thread mick_w

Are the HLS streams for Listen Again actually up and running now?

The reason I ask is the Pure internet radios have received a software
update to support both live and Listen Again HLS streams. I'd sort of
also assumed the iOS and android apps have been using them for some time
now.

Doesn't the iPlayer plugin use an XML feed supplied by the BBC to define
the Listen Again content? If so would it be a case of replacing it with
a new one that indexed the HLS streams?

Just found out the licensing has changed

I installed SugarCube just before Christmas and found out I had to pay a
fee to get the version that works with 7.7, OK I thought, no problem, so
I donated and got v.3.51 working.

Noticed I was being prompted to upgrade to a new version, excellent I
thought! only to find out I now have to pay another £10 per year to to
get v.4.25 to work or hack around with the linux command line to
reinstall v.3.51.

Not very happy at all with this, I understand developers want some
reward for their effort, but having to pay twice in 6 months is just too
much...

Better audio quality is always a good thing

A couple of questions about the AAC streams:

* Would you still be able to FFW/Pause/RWD the programs?

*Would it be possible to include the 'Schedule' and 'Categories' menu

Thanks EFP and gsamsa for sorting this out.

1. Dropped the SlimFX skin into the Squeezeceter HTML directory
2. Dropped the SocketPolicy plugin into the Squeezecenter Plugin

3. Modified the SocketPolicy plugin:

line 15 in the install.xml file:

maxVersion7*/maxVersion

line 141 in the Plugin.pm file:

my $newport = 1843;

4. Then as root ran the following command:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 843 -j REDIRECT --to-port
1843


...and it works great

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: BBCiPlayer Plugin (UK only)

2008-10-02 Thread mick_w

I really appreciate this plugin and it could eventually provide a great
alternative to AlienBBC, having better quality streams and not having
to install MPlayer are real advantages.

But after reading the BBC blogs, I've got concerns that the BBC are
planning to migrate to AAC rather than MP3. (Some posts indicate this
will happen this year).

If the BBC do move to AAC, is there any reason Logitech can't support
AAC natively? (on linux having to install FAAD or MPlayer and manually
tweaking configuration files is very messy).

Thanks for the iPlayer mod...

It's working fine, but when I play any iPlayer stream, the title is

I appreciate this is work in progress and as such a stop-gap release,

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Can AlienBBC announce itself as BBC Radio?

2007-12-31 Thread mick_w

I like the idea of renaming AlienBBC, so I thought I'd give this a go
too...

1.  I replaced the icon
(.../Plugins/Alien/HTML/EN/plugins/Alien/html/images/alien.png) with a
new BBC one:

http://www.ulverston.myzen.co.uk/mini-itx/downloads/AlienBBC%20Modification/alien.png

2.  Edited the string file (.../Plugins/Alien/string.txt) to read BBC
Radio rather than Alien BBC on line 6 of the code.

3.  Deleted the alienbbc.opml file from my playlist directory (a new
.opml file is then recreated when SC is restarted)

4.  As the current Alien beta2 is broken with regard to showing its
icon, I had to replaced the install file
(.../Plugins/Alien/install.xml) with the new one Triode posted:

http://forums.slimdevices.com/showpost.php?p=250831postcount=24

5.  Restarted SqueezeCenter and everything looks good and works fine.


Note - I did not have to edit the default.opml file as suggested by BPA
in a previous post to get this working.

I understand there is good reason why the plugin can't officially be
called BBC Radio and use the official logo - copyright etc..., and
for people outside the UK who use it for non-bbc stations it would make
little sense either.

Thanks to the AlienBBC team - keep up the excellent work.

All was fine until two days ago, I've not changed anything on the
network, and now the live streaming stops exactly at 1min 27sec every
time.

I'm using Slimserver 6.31 on a PPC linkstation with MPlayer1.0pre7try2
and AlienBBC 1.05. (For info the Linkstation is connected to a wireless
Netgear ADSL router, and both my Squeezeboxes connect wirelessly)

So it's probably not a problem with the newest
Slimserver/AlienBBC/windows version

All other internet radio works OK (Shoutcast etc...) and the Listern
Again still works fine

I've powered down everything, but it still refuses to work.

Changed the rtsp cache settings to 256 and this didn't help; I tried
with both MP3 and WAV convertion and the both stopped after somewhere
between 1:23 and 1:31 minutes of playing.

I played about with the router firewall settings - turning it completly
off - allowing complete access into and out of my home network - but
this didn't change anything.

I've given both SB3's static IP addresses - a long shot - but this
didn't help.

I'm starting to thing either my router or ISP could be to blame...

I'll keep you informed if it starts to work again.

Thanks for the help

Mick

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Re: mplayer (and hence AlienBBC) on a mipsel Linkstation

2006-07-24 Thread mick_w

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but here's my recent
experiences on installing AlienBBC on a PPC Linkstation (LS1)...

I haven't installed CVS so I'm using the tar balls available for
download from the MPlayer site.

I've installed the PPC essential Codecs (I appreciate these aern't
essential for pre8) and compiled and installed Lame (again not sure if
this is neaded).

MPlayer1.0pre8 apeared to compile OK, but wouldn't start from the
comand line when installed. (reported a problem with sharing libz.so.01
if I remmember correctly, and wouldn't start) Has anyone got pre8 to
work on a PPC Linkstation?

So I then compiled MPlayer1.0Pre7try2 and this worked fine.

Installed AlienBBC 1.05 and all works fine.

As mentioned above, the MPlayer(1.0pre7try2) processes only add ~20% to
the CPU load and memory usage, could the pre8 version be more CPU
hungry?

A quick question for 'bpa', I'm still getting the well documented
garbled problem on live streams with this version of the build
(1.0pre7try2), when I tried to compile with yor patch
(http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=16917page=8 pst 76
dated Nov 05), I had the same problem Patrick Dixon
(http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=16917page=9 see post
no.89).

I used the demuxreal.c in the zip file, should I have used the .gz
version?

Should this version (1.0pre7try2) still require patching? or does it
include the propper MPlayer fix?

Had another go at compiling 1.0pre8, compiles and installed without
errrors but it still has problems starting on the command line.
(problems sharing libz.so.01).

So I had a go at patching 1.0pre7 with bpa's patch (see above). This
time i used the correct one (the .gz version) and it worked a treat!!!

No more garbled output on live feeds.

Might install CVS and try a build from the latest snapshot to get
1.0pre8 working, but theres no rush now.

Thanks to everone on this forum (bpa and the AlienBBC team especially -
without the information published here I wouldn't have even been able to
install Slimserver). 

This plugin really makes a great product spectacular.
