If you want to avoid guests destroying the party, maybe it would be
good to have some kind of restriction on how many tracks in a row a
certain guest can add ? Or maybe a minimum time until you can add next
track ?
Would of course be hard if there is only one device at the party but if
each guest or group of guests have one iOS device for themselves it
might be interesting to have a restriction, so you have to wait a few
minutes before you can add another track with the same iOS device. That
will make sure everyone gets a chance to add something they like to
hear.
Or maybe restricting by genre or artist, making it impossible to
several tracks in a row from same genre or same artist.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Coming soon... The iPeng teaser thread
What if Party had a tray where users can drag the song(s) they want to submit. Then they push the whole set to iPeng and the DJ. Would that resolve the who added what issue ? (I think the DJ holding iPeng should further be able to do whatever he sees fit with the submissions, according to his plans, Party users votes, before the sets really becomes the SBS playlist.) On a Party now playing screen, what about : - a Love the DJ button - a Take this home button, that stores info on a song I don't know but find interesting. So the next day, away from the host's library, it's possible to check again on that find and perhaps buy the song etc. (sometimes I do that w/ Shazam, but it's not fast and not too reliable.) - a button to take a picture.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Coming soon... The iPeng teaser thread
Some further thoughts from me:
It's fairly easy to come up with a lot of cool ideas, but when I take
it one step further my dilemma (if I should be honest) is that I can't
really see the situation where I would use it.
The reasons are:
1.
At more or less every big party I've been the music has not been
controlled by a Squeezebox. And if it was using Squeezebox often less
than half of the participants have a iOS device in their pocket.
2.
At small parties with 3-4 friends it's not that often that we have a
need to think ahead and create long playlists. I have been in
situations where we have discussed music and someone has said have you
heard the song by ... and we have tried to find it either on YouTube or
Spotify. It kind of feels like it could be of interest in this scenario.
However, for this kind of situation it's very important that the
playlist doesn't grow and become too big, I would even say that it
needs to be limited to maximum 5-10 songs because if I add a track and
it's 20 songs away, I have no idea if we are even going to listen to
music when the playlist reaches my song.
The problem with long playlists are going to be even worse in big
parties, my track is always going to end up at the back and not be
played until several hours in the future.
So for me personally, I could see situations in a small party where it
could be of interest to use iPeng Party, because it lets everyone
browse and search for songs by themselves, but it feels like I would
like it to either:
* Be impossible to add more than 5 tracks, if 5 tracks are in the
playlist, you have to wait until there is only 4 tracks in the playlist
before you can add another one.
or
* Some kind of turn based algorithm were each connected iOS device get
a hole of 60 seconds where it can add a track and if the user of that
iOS device decided either pass or doesn't add a song during that time,
the turn goes to next iOS device running iPeng Party.
or
* Have a select tracks period for 30 seconds where all iPeng Party
instances can select one potential track and then after this have a
voting period where all iPeng Party instances can vote on the selected
tracks (but not on the one they added themselves).
Basically my feeling is that for this to become something really useful
it's critical to introduce features that limits the length of the
playlist or somehow makes sure there is a way for me to get my track
played at least during the next 30-60 minutes.
Another thing that potentially could be really useful is to make it
possible to browse information related to what's currently playing, but
unfortunately this is something that doesn't seem to exist in iPeng
Party at the moment, unless I've missed some hidden Now Playing screen
that offers this functionality. I thinking about things like, other
albums/songs by same artist, artist images, biographies, reviews,
similar artists, wikipedia, post to facebook/twitter, ...
Finally, not sure if this has been mentioned already, but some way to
click on a track and see the remaining time until that track will be
played would also be good.

agree on needing to easily see now playing info. I thought I was missing something. I think I can use this app quite a bit. I often have friends over, especially to the weekend house, where we spend a lot of time on the deck listening to music. I end up passing my ipad around and folks search a bit and choose songs they want to play.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Coming soon... The iPeng teaser thread
I believe for most algorithms that really make sense I would need some server side or at least iPeng (normal) side support because even tracking what's going on on other iPeng Party devices will be hard. First: a list of stuff that sounds doable, some of this is stuff I did already somewhat plan for: * more info on the current track - will come * better visualization for current track - will come * different play time info - time to track and time since track played, for example - will probably come * make tracks you added yourself removable - hard and kind of spoils the hand the device around model but then this is not the idea so: will come if it turns out doable * vote tracks up that get voted on more than once. Probably with some algorithms like more voting power if voted for on different devices and no additional votes for xxx seconds - Same limitation as the last one, otherwise probably something that will come * dupe detection and avoidance - same as last one * Vote current track down - planned anyway. * define additional exclude menus in iPeng similar to the party mode setting - planned * move iPeng Party settings to a different submenu * timeout after each added track until another one can be selected. Another thing I believe could be doable is to define (through iPeng) a maximum play ahead number of tracks in the playlist. If the number of pending tracks exceeds this threshold, some random track gets removed from the list with, say, a 50% chance and maybe a prompt to the extent of do you really want to remove xxx, upcoming in yyy seconds to add yyy. For the fun of it it would also be nice to see which device added/removed a track so you could notify others hey, xxx just removed this track! or xxx just added this track, will think about it. What would be better is a straight voting system but I doubt this is feasible without server support.

Good idea. But the best way to do it would be to use the remote configuration from the normal iPeng anyway. Then you can send your guests directly to whichever player you want them to use.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Coming soon... The iPeng teaser thread
Other remarks, IMHO and FWIW : Overall I am not totally sold on the GUI, but hey, neither am I with the full iPeng on iPad app. As I said earlier I think a choice could be made on the app's purpose, and this should override what follows. - In portrait mode there is no playlist. iPhoto uses a horizontal list, and this works well for me. - I have to agree in landscape mode it is difficult to visualize what's playing now. - There is no auto-add to the playlist when it ends. When it ends the player stops. Then you can add more songs, but there is no auto-start either. - No fullscreen now playing ? For a DJing app I can understand. But for a more passive app, I think this is really missing. - In my tests the cancel song popup was totally inefficient. For starters this is a transient popup window and I think they should get the axe (the second one being used for a possibly unnecessary player selection). If you're dancing around or semi drunk, a popup window is not easy to grasp. Second, every time I tried to hit the red (x) mark to cancel the addition, I failed to cancel and hit the song under it, ending up in adding 2 songs I think something like a swipe on the just added item should allow to delete it. (if added by yourself?) Like in Mail on iPhone when you want to archive/delete messages from the inbox. - Time remaining in playlist needs not be accurate by the second (it is on the song). Elapsed time on a song means nothing to me. Remaining time in the song does, but only if I am empowered to change what's going to play next. Both figures dance a little on screen (proportional font). Purely as a guest, what could interest me is: do I have time to do whatever and be back for this song?, or what was it they played 10 minutes ago?. So I think I'd prefer relative timing (X minutes ago, now playing, coming up in X minutes) attached to the playlist. Like the TimeMachine scale ? - Menu. I don't know what to say, by and large I hate it... But I guess at least you want to remove some distracting items from that menu (new music, extras, trackstat, favs ) All right you wanted it, now you have it.

Well, it's NOT thought to be a NowPlaying display for parties, although it's a nice idea and I might add something like that later, after all it's another building block I do already have. The idea is to allow you to add tracks to the end of the current playlist from the whole library and do see this playlist. - In portrait mode there is no playlist. iPhoto uses a horizontal list, and this works well for me. I don't understand. You mean, no permanent one? You can get it by tapping the penguin from anywhere (except from help). - There is no auto-add to the playlist when it ends. When it ends the player stops. Then you can add more songs, but there is no auto-start either. OK, Idea taken: start playback whenever nothing is playing. Auo-add: there are already enough plugins for that May I ask you to file tickets?

But for a more passive app, I think this is really missing. OK - In my tests the cancel song popup was totally inefficient. Ummm... This is no cancel song. The x just removes the popup, just as with the other two iPeng Apps I think something like a swipe on the just added item should allow to delete it. (if added by yourself?) Yep, that's what I would do if I add that feature. I also kind of like it. The problem is: if you are not playing Spotify it can actually be very hard for iPeng Party to find out which track it added itself, and even then it could fail if a track is in the list more than once. It's not like you could get any information from the server like these are the tracks you've added. It's really that hard. what was it they played 10 minutes ago?.

Actually not to this extend (another good idea... ticket?) but I thought about showing only a part of the playlist but then shied away because it's so much work - Menu. I don't know what to say, by and large I hate it... But I guess at least you want to remove some distracting items from that menu (new music, extras, trackstat, favs ) Why on earth do you find favs and New Music distracting??? Actually that's the two menu items I use most on my parties. Extras is needed if you want to access the browser so you can get stuff from the internet, a game I always like to play at parties :) -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote, iPeng for iPad and *New: iPeng Party, the free party App*, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93980 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Coming soon... The iPeng teaser thread
I've had a brief play with it and really like the idea - its definitely something I will use. I had what looked like an issue - perhaps its just 'pilot error' though? I have a large number of songs in a separate directory - its a kind of 'juke box' selection of the songs I like on any album, plus a load of single songs where I don't have the rest of the album. I play from this directory most of the time. When I tried to add songs from this folder nothing seemed to happen - I can browse to the albums menu selection, select an album and select a song on the album and touch it, and I get the notification window and the song appears on the playlist - when doing it directly from the 'Music Folder' menu item, I get nothing when I touch the song and the playlist is not affected. I have to agree that the 'now playing' song on the landscape view does not stand out as much as it should - perhaps make the cell border red or something, just to make it 'pop' a little? -- RichardL RichardL's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16586 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93980 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Coming soon... The iPeng teaser thread
I just downloaded the app on my iPhone. It looks nice and is easy to use. A few things are bothering me though... 1. It is very hard to see which song is actually playing. I see that the artwork thumbnail is a bit bigger, but that is it. If I am scrolled down all the way on my playlist I have a hard time finding the song that is currently playing. Maybe pressing on the 'Current Song and remaining time' in the bottom right could bring you to the current song? Or give the background a different color? 2. I would love to see a 'Play Next' feature when selecting a song... 3. I would love to see a 'Remove this song from playlist' option 4. I would like to press on other songs in the playlist (either already played or coming up) and have them either play immediately or play next. 5. The pop up that a song is added is a bit hard to use, which you wouldn't expect. I try to close it by pressing the x, but I guess I time it wrong or something because it doesn't really go away, but the same song is added again... I guess I have a different view of Party Mode. The main thing I'd like to prevent is that my friends inadvertently delete the whole play list by choosing 'Play' in iPeng or something.

chill;694264 Wrote: A cut-down stand-alone party mode app? Just going by the icon, obviously. Now, as you probably guessed by the name, Chill pretty much nailed it with answer #8. It's a no-frills party mode App that tries to block everything that could devastate a playlist, change a player setup, volume, whatever. Just add tracks to the end of the current playlist. And see what's coming. No guarantees taken for plugins (I hear SMD may be a bit problematic) and Apps, but it's pretty good, the main issue I know about so far is that it allows Slacker (and maybe Deezer) Radios to be added to a playlist, something you can't block without disabling the whole service. The drawback is that it blocks a few things that would be nice (Global Search and TrackInfo menus come to mind), but if you are having a party, I prefer safety first. As already stated, it's a univeral App for iPhone and iPad and - not yet stated - it's free. So if you want to use it to have a peek at how iPeng performs without paying 10$, here's your chance. And of course, you can have your friends download it to their own iThingies. All you need to do is give them access to your WiFi network. Of course, this begs the risk that they just use another App to spoil your party but hey, it wouldn't be iPeng if Coolio and I didn't have a solution for this... If you (as a host) also use iPeng, you can set a username/password on your server (or use MySB) and remotely configure iPeng Party through iPeng so that your guests will not have access with other Apps. Now let's only hope that Apple finally approves it next (US: this) week, it's there for more than two weeks now, this is actually the longest delay for a release I've ever had :( -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote and *New: iPeng for iPad*, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93980 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Coming soon... The iPeng teaser thread
It's one of mine. It's a somehwhat specialized App for Lantic Entertainment Systems to control the Audio in their yacht entertainment systems. http://www.lantic-systems.com/p/products.php It's like a somewhat simplified version of iPeng that does already include playback, has their CI and has some modified functionality in their special setup. It will usually work in a Squeezebox environment but you can't choose the server (needs to be automatically found, which is guaranteed to work in their setups, or you can't use it), you have no access to the configuration settings (they are password protected) and you don't have Apps, synchronization and such. Their setup also features some specialities like a public playlist player that manages a common playlist. I would not recommend to use it for a normal home Squeezebox setup (it's expensive!) unless you are fine with the simplified functionality and really want a black background. It's not iPeng Party although some things in iPeng Party are actually adapted from it, like the dark background -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote and *New: iPeng for iPad*, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93980 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Apart from the fact that I wouldn't know where to put an icon, anything small will not help. The screen shot may be a bit misleading, especially since the title is so short, the difference is not so small. The cell and cover are 1.5 times the size of the other cells and the text is almost twice as big plus there is a space and then a frame around the cell which also stands out to the front. If you want it more obvious you'd have to make it much bigger (taller) or use a completely different color. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote and *New: iPeng for iPad*, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93980 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

iPhone.
That Ra... button looks a bit bad with all that empty space to the
right of it, would be nice to see more than two letters on the Ra...
button.
But maybe it was intentional ? To make it a real teaser :-)

To make it a real teaser :-) The Ra... Button is for Radiohead and yes, I hate it, too. The problem is: I can't make it any bigger as I don't want to re-invent the whole push/pop logic and button creation for the back buttons. The ones (back buttons) that the iOS creates simply don't grow any bigger if you put another button next to them (the home button in this case) but I really wanted the home button because otherwise you would have to step out each menu level at a time. I couldn't even manage to get a gesture recognizer for long presses on the back button. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote and *New: iPeng for iPad*, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93980 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Coming soon... The iPeng teaser thread
My guess: an app that auto-ties to the nearest player around (with wifi sniffing ?) and to the SBS serving it, and then provides simplified playlist management (the party mode thing). Something nice for large places with multiple zones. Like a lounge bar ?

I can't, you can't modify how and where the automatic back button is being put. You can create your own back button and then you can do what you want but it also means you have to do the whole button creation and handling yourself maybe in a later update. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote and *New: iPeng for iPad*, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93980 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
