[SlimDevices: Plugins] Re: SuperDateTime - no output to screen
Could the problem be that you're not using the SuperDateTime plugin that's for SS 6.5? If you're using an old version of the plugin, the plugin fails and pretty much crashes SS, causing the screen to be blank. Just a thought, sometimes it's the simple things. -- verbatone verbatone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3556 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28930 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
[SlimDevices: Plugins] IR Blaster Question to control S link
I have a Sony preamp that has the stupid Sony S link control on the rear of the unit. Sadly I really like the preamp or I would just ditch it for something else. But I do like it and now I'd like to automate its powering on and off. So I looked into controlling the unit through the S link, which seems to be the same digital signaling as the IR, except there's no carrier frequency. So I'm wondering if I set the line: my $MODULATION = 100 / $IR_FREQUENCY; # IR_FREQUENCY default: 38400 ==> 26.042 uS from the plugin to: my $MODULATION = 0..., if this will then just output the bit stream that I want. I guess I could hook up an oscilloscope and see, but wanted to check here to see if anyone has any experience or suggestions.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Re: IR Blaster Question to control S link
Thanks for the reply and link. I know now what was confusing me. The forums I was reading had people using the IR signal to generate Control S and the folks were stripping the carrier from code to verify the correct codes, but it does appear there is a difference. I see two solutions: 1. I can add a transistor inverter pretty easily. 2. I can invert the codes in the remote control file. The problem I can see is whether or not the carrier is going to affect the Control S and whether I can filter it simply enough if it is causing a problem.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Trackstat web interface problem
I installed the TrackStat plugin and now when I try to access virtually any of the "browse" options throught the web interface I get a blank panel. The right hand side (where the playlist and transport controlls are) functions normally. This is using the default web skin. The only "browse" option that works is the "favorites" browse menu. I read through erland's wiki page and I didn't notice anything that would be causing a problem, but obviously there is an issue. If I uncheck the TrackStat in the plugins menu, the problem still remains until I restart slimserver. Once I restart, everythings back to normal until I check TrackStat in the plugin menu again. Browsing throught the squeezebox is fine, no problems. I don't know if it has anything to do with my mysql database, which is external, but I'm looking to use the internal slim mysql as documented here: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32312 ubuntu server slimserver 6.5.1 Any idea of what the problem is. erland has too many cool plugins that I want to check out. -- verbatone verbatone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3556 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32314 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Trackstat web interface problem
erland, thanks for the reply. I've attached a screenshot of the page when the problem occurs (literally no information on the left panel). I initially found the problem at work where I use a windows machine, and checked both IE and firefox with the same result. The screenshot is from my Ubuntu linux machine running firefox as well. Hope this helps.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Trackstat web interface problem
Good night, another blunder on my part! I installed this plugin from work, where I have SSH file transfers easily setup to a VFAT drive on my linux box. Something about the VFAT format is forcing all capital directory names to lowercase. I've seen this before on this drive and haven't figured out how to solve that issue. SO, when I copied it to the VFAT drive it named "SQL" -> "sql", "HTML" -> "html", "EN" -> "en", etc. So after fixing all of those, it's working again and I see the TS in the browse window. Thanks for your help erland, it actually helped solve this problem. All's well, now I just have to watch out for that VFAT all caps issue with any other plugins. -- verbatone verbatone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3556 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32314 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
[SlimDevices: Plugins] (X_/_Y) as well as (X_OF_Y)
Mr. Herger, Would it be possible to have a different format from (X of Y) in the interest of space saving on the SB screen? The two spaces and "of" use four characters total. If the format was (X/Y) (no spaces) you gain back three characters of space. This isn't really that big of a deal, but would be something i'd be interested in.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Trackstat question or request
The plugin is great! But there's one thing that bothers me, which has to do with reissued CDs these days. All of the bonus tracks on a CD can really lower the overall rating of an "album" since generally they're alternate takes or something like that. I would say 80% of the time they're fluff which I don't rate very high, so the overall rating of an otherwise great album gets affected. Is there a way to overcome this? I tried using the "unrate" option, but this just resets it back to "6" (in my case scaling 1-10). If there nothing that currently can do this, generally I would like to request a feature which rates an album by the rated tracks, and not the unrated tracks. I realize that if you only rate one song on a album, that would be the whole album's rating. But there may be other ideas which would be better. -- verbatone verbatone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3556 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36128 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Can Someone Help Me Find A Plugin That Does This....
I don't think there's a plugin which will accomplish what you want to do. You want to link two songs together based on the fact that they were performed as a medley. A good example is the Beatles - Sun King -> Mean Mr. Mustard -> Polythene Pam -> She Came Into... off Abbey Road. I don't think I know of any tags which will accomplish this, nor a plugin that can use this information in random playback. As a work around, some rippers will allow you to rip sections as a continuous file, and then the songs would be fundamentally linked together. Although, I not sure if there'd be times when you only want to listen to one part of the medley. -- verbatone verbatone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3556 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38715 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
