 Unfortunately this option isn't always available. Eg. if you start with

 The next version will feature an option allowing you to can change from 
 
 local files only to mixed and back on the fly for every mix. That's  
 probably the best I can offer.

This would be an excellent feature, currently I operate in local mode
only as I was more satisfied with the results however there are times
when I would want to extend further out into spotify, for example for
'party' or 'pop' playlists or if I wanted to discover some new music

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spotify Premium Plugin (Beta)

2011-11-18 Thread socistep

Hi Triode

This is very much a 'nice to have' if it was feasible, however is there
any way in the spotify API to match a local playlist to spotify and
produce a spotify playlist?, so I could match my 'Top Rated' playlist
and create a spotify version

Might be unachievable however would be a fantastic feature IMO!

thanks
Ian

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: New versions of erlands plugins

2011-10-11 Thread socistep

Hi Erland

Hoping you can point me in the right direction!

I have just moved to a new server and a new version of SBS, I heavily
use trackstat ratings and then dynamic playlists from that. Previously
on my old server, I disabled the auto production of Trackstat Rating
1-5.m3u when I rate a song, I then had these generated once nightly - I
have searched settings and can't work out how/where I did this, can you
advise?

thanks in advance
Ian

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: New versions of erlands plugins

2011-10-03 Thread socistep

Hi Erland

Yesterday I paid for the suite of plugins, I personally think its the
right step, they are the best plugins available and like most people I
had meant to donate but not done it previously.

I have run into a problem with Dynamic Playlists which I would
appreciate your help with. At the same time as paying for plugins I
have also migrated onto a new server, previously I had a vortexbox
server running 7.5.3 and have just set-up a HP microserver running
vortexbox 1.10 and SBserver 7.6.1. In terms of your plugins then I
imported trackstat backup which worked fine, I then copied all my
playlists over to the Sbserver playlists folder which incudes the
dynamic playlists.

However on the dynamic playlists plugin it isn't showing any playlists
in the main window, in settings it showed all playlists and like before
on 7.5.3 I chose the 'Top Rated' ones I wanted to display however
nothing listed on web interface/players.

Do you have any ideas what may have caused this? I did try uninstalling
and reinstalling plugin which didn't make any difference

Thanks
Ian

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spotify Premium Plugin (Beta)

2011-09-05 Thread socistep

Hi Triode

Is it possible at all when creating a playlist to create or add to a
specific folder? I list all the new albums I'm listening to under a
month folder, so now with your plugin I can search for an album and add
to playlist, what I would like to do is add the playlist under the
'September' folder for example, is that possible?

Also a feature request, is it possible when saving an album to new
playlist to auto populate the artist/album name? The spotify
desktop/android apps auto populate as artist - album and saves
having to type unless you want to edit the description.

Cheers
Ian

Hi Triode

Great plugin, just moved over from the official plugin and won't be
going back!

Have a problem with the new update though, installed last night on my
vortexbox (running 7.5.3) and it worked fine on web interface and
players, however today the players won't go into menu, just showing the
spinning image. The one thing that I noticed was that I had tried to
access from squeezecommander app and that brought up a server error,
since then I can't access.

Have tried restarting server and players but still the same, can you
advise on what to look for next?

Thanks

Hi triode

Can't remember whether it was weds or thurs night! Server error message
from squeezecommander is 

'server error:request failed with error:bad dispatch!'

Just noticed that the web interface is working as expected its just the
player/android app that aren't working.

I'll uninstall and reinstall now and see whether that makes a

Really like the improvements in the new version, probably the main one
for me is the ability to add a song to an existing playlist (as a minor
bug its spelt wrongly as 'exising' on the menu) - I put my favourite
songs from an album into my 'Best of 2011' playlists and previously had
to use android app on phone to do this and can now do direct from SB,
brilliant!

Not sure how much I will use the library feature yet, will see on that

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Erlands Plugins: Playlist Generator/Trackstat - Missing or limited tracks?

2010-12-16 Thread socistep

Hi There

I use trackstat for rating music and then creating playlists from that,
I wanted to have a way of transferring the ratings from Squeezebox to
Banshee on linux which I use to manage my ipod classic.

What I did was to use Erlands playlist generator with custom scan to
nightly produce a 'Top Rated' m3u playlist, I then wrote a very basic
shell script to replace 'flac' with 'mp3' and then when I go into
Banshee I load up the latest version of 'Top Rated' tracks, this then
transfers as a playlist onto my ipod.

Works well, however I went to do an update last night, previously there
was 485 songs in the top rated playlist and I expected this to jump up
to a couple of hundred more as I'd rated a few songs, however it stayed
around the same number.

I went back to playlist generator and checked settings and it seemed to
me that it wasn't pulling all the top rated tracks into the playlist so
rather then adding to the total it seemed to pull back a list of just
less then 500 tracks.

I then did a database query and noticed that the following were in
trackstat

Number of 4 star rated songs;601
Number of 5 star rated songs;90

- Am I doing something wrong settings wise in generating this
playlist?
- Is there a restriction on playlist generation via these plugins
similar to the SBS restriction of 500 tracks?

Any help appreciated!

thanks
Ian

 Sounds like this has to do with the Maximum Playlist Lenght setting in

Brilliant, thats it, changed the setting to 1000 and all tracks coming
