Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] 7.3 and XM radio
Has there been any progress on this issue of XM Radio and Squeezebox? My father is interested in dumping his XM boombox (with satellite antenna) and finding something to feed XM into his home stereo system and saving the spece the boombox is taking up in his shelf. I have a SB and a Boom so am investigating whether these can finally tune XM Radio, preferably without SqueezeCenter (he doesn't have a full-time network server running, but does have net-connected PCs). He doesn't need a Squeezebox solution specifically, so if anybody knows of another XM device to feed his amplifier, we're open to that idea too. He's fairly sophisticated with PCs and networking but at 80 years of age really isn't seeking out complexity - he'd just like to have his XM favorites on a full system.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] 7.3 and XM radio
I have installed XM Radio Online Plugin 3.2 on SqueezeCenter 7.3.3, and it Sort Of works. I have the XM Radio Online menu item under Internet Radio, and I can enter a channel number, like 70 for Real Jazz and 78 for Symphony Hall. Hallelujah! I can also enter the URL like xmradio://70 and add it to my Favorites. What I cannot get working are the Browse Presets/Browse Genres/Browse Stations buttons. When I press those, a useless page opens with Home / XM Radio Online / Browse Presets at the top. I must add that I am using the Light interface so I can control my SqueezeBox Classic from my HP iPAQ and Opera Mobile browser.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] 7.3 and XM radio
I have had the opportunity to play around with the revised XM plugin over the last few days. Other than the lack of a XM button on the SB3 as previously noted, I see there is a problem with displaying correct track information in the web UI and on the SB3. The display of this info is slow to start and when it does, it alternates between the correct track particulars and apparently those from other channels. FYI, I am also having problems with track info on the latest versions of Squeezeplay and bpa's beta update to Softsqueeze, but that is a matter for another time. Some other points: As for Now Playing on the right side of the web UI,track info is slow to display or doesn't show up at all for the categories on the left side of the web UI, such as Presets and Browse Stations. Track info on the left side of the web UI does not update. If I remember correctly, this was also the case with earlier versions of the plugin. It would be a nice touch to have the tracks constantly refreshed, if that is possible. I of course don't know if these glitches are particular to me, so would be interested to hear your observations. -- raglencross raglencross's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7239 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=56497 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Neil, I have your plugin working on XP and Vista 64 machines through a SB3, Softsqueeze 3.9b1 and the beta Squeezeplay. I will give you a full report after I have had more time to put the plugin through its paces. The only thing of significance I note so far is the lack of a XMradio menu entry for the SB3 and Softsqueeze, although it is shown on the web UI. I expect that is what you meant by menu on boom and SB3 in your last post. Like the Duet, XM is a selectable menu option in Squeezeplay, but does not show up in the menu settings for the other devices.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] 7.3 and XM radio
I'm in the same boat - its working very well with my boom except for the menu button missing. That said, the fav trick works: you can add any xm station as a favorite by specifying the station's number with the xmradio qualifier. For example, for station 204, NHL, I made the following favorite entry: xmradio://204 And in fact this actually is working better than ever - it looks like you fixed it so that I don't have to log in first, I just go to it and it works! (Good thing too, since there's no option on my boom.) Perhaps these fav's are a pain to setup one time, but after that, very convenient, and no limitations in the number of favs you can have, unlike presets. I've already made a bunch in an XM subfolder and will be listening to them all tomorrow.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] 7.3 and XM radio
Because I activated the 30-day Sirius trial, I decided to upgrade to 7.3 again to see how it works. As it turns out 7.3 prevents access to Sirius from outside the US (where I am). I can't even add Sirius to the player menu from inside 7.3. So, by installing 7.3 I lost access to both XMRadio which I pay for and Sirius which I am testing. I'm back to 7.2.1, listening to Sirius for a month and then will be content with XMRadio. -- downtime downtime's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3463 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=56497 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

If you add two negative numbers it should still be a negative. I never could figure out why'd you'd merge two companies losing money to fix the problem. With the drop in car sales the whole satellite radio thing may be doomed. I know two subscriptions I won't be renewing because of the addition of DJ's to two of my favorite stations. The very reason I quit listening to FM and I wasn't paying for the privilege. I think combined with the fact that Satellite radio is inconvenient to install in a car and not much more fun at home with wires hanging all over for the antenna, it's just not as viable as it could be.

That way we would end up with a Logitek supported service for a few more dollars a month and music at 120kps to boot. Wasn't the reason for the Sirius takeover to save money by stopping duplication of services?

I swore when I first started reading this forum that I would type things out. SBS, SC, SN, It was confusing for me and I think I missed some valuable info in the beginning. Anyway, SBC is SqueezeBox Controller. The remote, if you will, for the DUET system. With the advent of 7.3 your Contoller can now be a player. You could plug it in to your stereo or a set of powered speakers or you can plug a set of headphones in and listen to it like an personal player. After loading 7.3 you simply need to go to the Controller and select Settings/Advanced/Audio and turn on Beta player. Then go back to your menu and under Select Player select the Controller. It won't play Rhapsody yet and it doesn't sync with other players well (yet), but it sounds great with a decent set of buds or headset and beacuse it's wireless, you can wonder around the house with it. I walk my dog with mine. Depending on your wireless set up you can get 150' and much further with range extenders, etc.. It's great fun and works well. Howard P.S. I think I remembered the menus correctly above, but I'm not at home right now. -- Howard Passman .and still waiting for extra cradles..

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] 7.3 and XM radio
Thanks much. My setup is much simpler: a SBB (acronym city!) in the kitchen; running SC off a ReadyNAS. The XM Plugin is a must have for me - just love it. So I'll wait a bit for 7.3. I've played with the Sirius stuff but not too much yet. -- Will -- wsmknicks wsmknicks's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20272 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=56497 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] 7.3 and XM radio
Why not revert back to 7.2? http://downloads.slimdevices.com/SqueezeCenter_v7.2.1/ Does 7.3 have some must have features that I'm missing out on?

I had XM working with the work around for a while in 7.2 and then it stopped. Could never get it working again no matter what I did. Every once in a while I tried it with 7.3 while in Beta. Of course, when they went to full release I tried again, just hoping. It is actually worse if there can be something worse than not working. Before, it appeard to be playing, just no sound. Now, it doesn't even do that and when I click on some of the menu items like browse stations, I get gibberish. The XM thing and now the Rhapsody thing are tiresome.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] 7.3 and XM radio
Same symptoms as you, Howard, although the plugin worked OK on my setup under 7.2 after the fix by Billie Bob (Or was it Philf?).

It was working pretty sweet for 7.2. Actually better than when it was on 6.x on my system. Not sure why 7.3 bonked it.
