Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Material Skin not showing the queue controls on my Desktop PC

2022-12-07 Thread bayard1music


Hello Jim and others,


Had another attempt to run once I understood it doesn't effect the
overall install and that one can revert to normal operation. 

Perhaps some quirk of my browser / cache but on a third attempt it seems
to be behaving and appears to offer the options I expected. I confess
I've not really touched the sytem for a year or so and am not a
programmer/linux expert although technically competent by dint of
hardware electronics experience , early microprocessors (worked at Psion
on manufacturing test sytem design and DAB radio)

I've reinstalled the server more than once but each time I've done so
everything including the O/S , Server etc has moved on a few iterations
and scope for issues to catch the newbie out.

Last a couple of times I recall I had to install Perl , which was a new
requirement as I understood things. 

I've a manual script/procedured that I've put together and includes
modifying the  fstab file:

/dev/sda1 /media/music vfat rw,user,umask=000,uid=112,gid=65534 0 0

This came from an early blog/article on installing Squeezeboxserver on a
Pi. It's worked for me . In truth I beleive it gives permission to the
server to access the music stored on my external hard drive. Is this
correct. 

I'd welcome any comments about the simplest route to install today and
access music on an external device (1 Terabyte Hard Drive with 1700 Flac
CDs). Thanks once again.

>From your first post. I read through the thread and this is indeed
bizarre. I have a few suggestions where (taking a wild shot) maybe if
you use the interface, make it function, it might self resolve (again,
an "all else fails" suggestion).

You can add to the queue by either the '+', dots, or right click on the
item (album/track) in the browse window. Similarly, in the queue window
you can dots/right click to remove, or select a range to remove.
Similarly for playlist construction. Not ideal, but maybe if you start
to use the skin...

A couple other random things:
* You don't have server (as you mentioned) or player settings. Curious
as to what you are using for player(s)? Are the connected to LMS and not
mysqueezebox.com?
* You mentioned favorites being missing. Since you have interface
settings, go there, then "home screen items", is Favorites checked?
* You have been getting good help here, but if it were me, I would
remove the material plugin, clear the cache on my web browser (or use
another device/browser), restart LMS, and probably even restart the LMS
system (I use picoreplayer).
* If you feel (and fear) you may have to reinstall LMS, it's not too
bad. I have done it a few times :) We can offer some advice if it comes
to that.

Jim

Hello Steve,

Thanks again. I may well try once more if you believe it should work.
I'm using a PC indeed plus Squeezer on an Android Phone. It looks very
slick but seemed slightly non functional as my images hopefully showed
up. I'll give it one more go.

Thanks Alan 

I've using a Logitech Touch , Audiolab 6000A (in Preamp Mode) and Active
Acoustic Energy Speakers in the living room. In the office another
Logtiech Touch , with SMSL A300 amp/QAcoustics 3020i and Topping E30.

If you are using a PC I would be inclined to install Squeezelight-X from
the MS Store (free download) as you can switch easily between the
standard skin and Material skin (if you have the latter installed). If
you have removed Material I would try installing it again to see if that
cures the problem. All the controls you require are available as
standard. There is an option to either show or exclude favourites via an
option in the Settings / Interface option.

OK, thanks for all that help just now. Seems to be back to my old
solution.


I've used this for 10 years or so , with two Touch Units and and today
two Squeezebox Radios. Unfortunately not as familiar or versed with all
of the sytems options as it's worked fine as is with no need to change.
I do like the look of the Material Skin and would pursue if it worked as
I think it should. What do you think happened here for me, the missing
Queue options and the  loss of the 'server settings'. I'd be keen to
give it another go now i know how to revert . That revert perhaps should
be on the front page of the material skin info. just in case it doesn't

To get back to the Default LMS GUI - type in your browser address bar
192.168.1.123:9000/Default and press enter. Change 192.168.1.123 to the
IP address of your LMS server.

Before you proceed with the nuclear option and remove the skin (I really
can't recommend it highly enough), can you post a picture of the screen
you are seeing?

I'm not sure why anyone would wish to remove the Material skin plugin,
however -

That manual is *very* out-of date. If the queue view itself is narrow
then Material will move some controls (move queue, add url, scroll queue
to track) to the main menu (accessed via the three dots top right).
However, clear queue and save queue should always be visible.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Material Skin not showing the queue controls on my Desktop PC

2022-12-06 Thread bayard1music


Just stumbled across this fine new interface for the Squeezebox Server.
I've now installed on my Raspberry Pi 2,  But for me, I can't see any of
the Queue controls i.e. clear playlist , save playlist, as shown in the
manual on page
https://cdn.statically.io/gh/d6jg/material-documentation/master/html/QueueArea.html

I seem to have only 'no shuffle' and 'no repeat' So at present this
isn't useable for me as I can't add or remove albums as I see it . 

I might be doing something wrong but have the remainder of the
intereface apparently working as it should do. 

Version: 8.3.0 - 1667251155 @ Fri 04 Nov 2022 09:16:39 AM CET
Hostname: raspberrypi
Server IP Address: 192.168.1.1xx
Operating system: Debian - EN - utf8
Platform Architecture: armv7l-linux
Perl Version: 5.28.1 - arm-linux-gnueabihf-thread-multi-64int
Audio::Scan: 1.05
IO::Socket::SSL: 2.060
Database Version: DBD::SQLite 1.58 (sqlite 3.22.0)

Can anybody give me some advice as to why this might be the case. I
admit I've just installed but expected the controls to bre present. 
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
