[SlimDevices: Plugins] Third-party plug-in for Pandora?
I know one can hook up to Pandora using the SB if one has a paid subscription. I'm wondering, however, if there is (or is being developed) a plug-in to use Pandora as I would from my PC to listen to music for free (like the plug-in that exists for LastFM).

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Wave Input plugin v1.00
Thanks for the suggestions. I have installed the SoftSqueeze program and am able to run it, but the screen comes up mostly blank. Question: Does the applet use graphical interface items or standard text-based tabs, dialog boxes, etc.? Since I am visually impaired, I needed to download the Java Access Bridge to enable Java apps to interact properly with my screen reader and pass along the appropriate UI info. When I start the SoftSqueeze app, however, nothing appears visible to my screen reader. I also had my sighted wife look at the screen and she didn't see anything sensible or any way of controlling the SB. I've been looking for documentation on how to run SoftSqueeze, but all I see is installation notes and FAQ's for folks who have it installed and running and have specific problems. Any suggestions? Maybe we're getting close here.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Wave Input plugin v1.00
Michael, Wow - Thanks for including the Wave Input link on the home page of SlimServer. Sounds like if the SoftSqueeze is all graphical with no windows-like buttons or controls I can move to using tab, arrow keys, etc. then I won't be able to use that Java applet with my screen reader. So, the link on the home page is great! Now, I installed version 1.02 of WaveInput as you suggested, restarted SlimServer, and clicked on this link. I expected any sounds coming from my PC to be routed to the Squeezebox. Well, I did click on the link, but nothing happened and I am still hearing the sounds come out of my PC. Note, before restarting SlimServer I did check all of the boxes in the SlimServer / Settings / Plug-ins page which were associated with Wave Input. What is wrong? Thanks again for patching this up so that I could use it with my screen reader. -- Pete -- ptorpey ptorpey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12072 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35718 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

I can now play any PC sounds through my Squeezebox and the Wave Input link makes this quite accessible with my screen reader - Thus, I don't have to use SoftSqueeze, which due to it's graphical nature, is not accessible for me. -- Pete -- ptorpey ptorpey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12072 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35718 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Wave Input plugin v1.00
I copied the plug-in directory and bin files into the appropriate SlimServer directories for the WaveInput plug-in. Entries for the WaveInput plug-in showed up in the SlimServer Settings / Plug-ins and Settings / Formatting pages as described in the documentation. My problem is that I don't see any links or pages inside SlimServer where I can turn on this plug-in. The documentation says: Use: Navagate to the Wave Input plugin page and press PLAY Where is this Wave Input page? I expected to find such a link on the SlimServer home page, but it is not there. Where else should I look? I've stopped and started SlimServer several times already but still no luck.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Wave Input plugin v1.00
I am not familiar with SoftSqueeze. If the application runs on a Windows PC I most likely can access it with my PC screen reader (as I now access the SlimServer software on the PC). Thanks. Perhaps I'll try and contact the author to see if he/she has any advice. -- Pete -- ptorpey ptorpey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12072 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35718 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Problems with Last FM
I'm an idiot! When I ran the command for debugging, I thought I had closed the Slim Server since I hit control+F4 when in the Slim Server. But I guess that only shut down IE (which is the interface to Slim Server) and the actual program was still running in the background. I hadn't noticed the Perl program running in the system tray. Anyway, once I REALLY shut down Slim Server and ran the debug command, I did get all of the info about the loaded Plug-ins in the output. Now LastFM seems to be working pretty well, although, as Nick pointed out, there does seem to be some problem with their scrobbling. When I put a prefered artist into LastFM from Slim Server's settings / internet radio page, the songs aren't quite in the genre I would expect. I suppose this is a problem with LastFM and not Slim Server's plug-in? Also, is it possible to stream from Pandora in a similar way with any Slim Server plug-ins?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Problems with Last FM
As you suggested, I ran the command: C:\Program Files\SlimServer\server\Slim.exe --d_plugins --d_startup logfile The output I sent was the entire contents of this logfile - I didn't see anything about plug-ins. Am I supposed to have the SlimServer software running when I execute this command (I wouldn't think so)? As I said, these plug-ins appear checked in the SlimServer Settings / Plug-In page of the web interface, but there are no login fields for Last FM (although I do see login fields for things like Radio IO which came as a default). Is there something Im doing wrong about putting in these plug-ins? I simply copied the appropriate directories into the SlimServer Plug-ins directory on my PC and restarted SlimServer. Thanks for any more suggestions. I have no idea at this point. -- Pete -- ptorpey ptorpey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12072 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36308 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Problems with Last FM
James, Sometimes miracles happen! I needed to reboot my PC. After I did, I started SlimServer and, surprise of surprises, LastFM appeared in my list of Internet radio stations and all of the expected login and password fields appeared under the Settings / Plug-in menus. Go figure! Anyway, there are still some strange things, like when I hit Delete for some of the types of music which LastFM suggests in the SlimServer page for playing/played LastFM music types, the items do not go away even after shutting down and restarting SlimServer. Also, when I stop SlimServer and run the command you previously suggested, I still get the same output which I sent in a previous post and it says nothing about plug-ins. But at least LastFM is working right now through my Squeezebox running through the PC's SlimServer. Thanks for your help. I can live with this behavior. -- Pete -- ptorpey ptorpey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12072 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36308 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
[SlimDevices: Plugins] Problems with Last FM
I installed Last FM + the Scrobler version 0.37.5 by following the instructions to copy the unzipped folders into the Slim Server Plug-in directory on my Windows PC. Going into the Slim Server software on my PC into the Server Settings / Plug-Ins, I can see that both the Last FM and Scrobbler are checked. However, 1. Last FM does not appear in my list of Internet radios, and 2. There is no place for entering a user name and/or password in either the Settings Plug-in page or the Internet radio page of the Slim Server software. I closed and restarted the software, but still no luck. Any ideas?
