Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Need url for 94WYSP

i listen to Merrill Reese as well, ;) ...but never found it (or looked)
on SB, figuring it was like flash based, wolfgangs vault-ish, etc,
blocked.

i've used these URLs for football on my computers:

http://freefootballradio.com/Philadelphia.html

http://player.radio.com/player/RadioPlayer.php?version=1.1.9780station=60

http://player.radio.com/player/RadioPlayer.php?version=1.2.12150station=111

so are you guys saying that this URL:

http://3093.live.streamtheworld.com/WYSPFM_SC

will do what my links do but on SB?  ie. put Merrill on SB?!??!

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Squeeze box not finding all of my MP3 files

2009-12-15 Thread MrSinatra

browsing a folder where missing music is sometimes will get it to scan
and in the DB.  this is NOT a fix.

as mentioned, use mp3tag and examine all the tags.  also, SBS has bugs
that might apply IF certain conditions are present.

you won't get this fixed without giving more info, and you'll be
confronted with it again next clear and rescan.

the thumbs.db is def there.  the search won't find it IF you don't set
the option in search to look at hidden and system files.

look manually.  you want to look for the thumbs.db file in first the
parent folder of the folder showing the wrong artwork.  that should be
it.  if that doesn't work, then look in the folder itself that shows the
wrong art.

that file is the reason and it will be very near wherever the wrong art
is displayed.  (you should be able to see hidden system files like
desktop.ini Folder.jpg and thumbs.db)

if you have no images in the My Music folder, or files in it with
images in them, then explorer must be working off of an old thumbs.db,
imo.

whats weird is if you have subfolders in that folder, it should
actually be showing you four images, which just further makes me think
its using an old cache file.

don't do a search.  manually look in folder and parent folders for the
hidden files, and system files (aka operating system files).  if you
don't see thumbs.db or desktop.ini or Folder.jpg anywhere, you don't
have file options configured correctly.

you have hidden, system files available to view?

if so, somewhere either in the folder or its parent, there is a

mp3tag only does what its told.  so what you have to do is account for
what it doesn't get right.

with comps, what you ultimately want is to put all the files of any one
CD in ONE folder.  so do it something like this:

c:\My Music\Various Artists\Live Lounge 3\Athlete - Wires.mp3

where Various Artists now becomes the replacement folder name for
artist.

any one album/cd only needs one artwork in the one folder.

 Sorry I think it might be me, I hadn't appreciated that SB will look for
 any art files in the folder, even if it's the top level My Music folder.
 So all the thousands of songs in there that do not reside in an album

 Well... There is only one jpg file that resides in there (and it was
 hidden) and it is... (drum roll)... Sly  The Family Stone - Hot Fun In
 The Summertime
 So the Wedding singer must be somewhere else, I even checked in the
 Wedding Singer folder and there is no actual image in there, it looks
 like it's embedded.

well, it sounds to me like thats it then.

first off, SBS doesn't use ANY art file, meaning any old one by any
name.  it will use ANY art file IT FINDS.  it'll only find certain ones
by certain names, or whats embedded.

so what was the filename of the sly file?

secondly, if it found the wedding singer art as an embed in the group
folder, and thats all it found for files in that folder, it might have
used it for the art for all the files in that folder.  that would be
very similar behavior to a jpg file it finds in the folder, only its
embedded.

again, if you stop using a group folder, and move files into a
artist\album struture, i think you'll see better results, that at the
very least are easier to troubleshoot.

also, at some point you need to do a cleanup ie. clear the SBS cache
operation, and a full clear and rescan.

what you want to do is take that folder [or the loose files] out of
your main music folders, put it somewhere else for the moment.  then
setup an empty folder to write to.

then, assuming the tags are otherwise good on these files, i THINK you
can use an app like mp3tag to take ALL those files, and create an
artist\album structure based on the tag data in that blank folder you
made, as well as create new file names.

then copy it all back to your main music folder.

u'll have to ask others how to do that in mp3tag, but i know apps out
there will do it.  maybe bliss as well.

u need to first concentrate on getting the right art put together.

here is what i suggest:

all your music should be in some kind of logical folder order, ie:

root\music\artist\album\

and then you need one jpg in the album folder.  ie: Folder.jpg

i would not use embedded art, meaning art in the file.  but if you do,
it has to be in each file on the album.

how do you get the art?  use google image search, or a pgm like bliss,
many apps get art one way or the other.

 Thanks Sinatra,
 
 So let me get this clear in My Music currently I have loads of folders
 (and individual songs) but I could have 3 folders for three albums by
 the same artist in there such as Daft Punk - Homework, Daft Punk -
 Discovery, Daft Punk - Live in Berlin.
 Instead, I should have one folder called Daft Punk and in there the
 three album folders?
 Is that right? Will that make a lot of difference as it's quite a lot
 of work? Should any individual songs also be in those folders as that
 would be horrible!!

please understand my advice is what i consider to be best practices
but others may disagree.  however if you follow it it will work good for
just about every app, including SBS.

in any case, yes, i would have my folders as:

root\music\Daft Punk\Homework\
root\music\Daft Punk\Live\
root\music\Daft Punk\Discovery\

and if i had random DP songs, then you could create

root\music\Daft Punk\random\

obviously put the right files (songs) in the right folders, and put
Folder.jpg in each folder.  also put a copy of each Folder.jpg in there
in case anything happens to the original.

SBS used to have a place where you could specify the artwork filename
SBS should use.  it might still have that, its been a long time since i
looked.  its in the settings somewhere, and should be set if there.

while this may be a lot of work, in the long run it'll be worth it for
you.

jamesg1979;484508 Wrote: 
 Then get rid of irrelevant jpg files (back covers/CD covers) which only
 leaves me with one file. Rename that file to folder.jpg.

u can keep other art in the folder, no problem.  you just want to
specify to SBS the right filename to use for display, (its a global
setting).

its just easier to have a single standalone jpg in a folder to deal

well, u said you see wedding singer for most of your music.

so, the simplest and most likely explanation is you have lots of files
sharing a folder and thats the art in it.  is that not the case?

if SBS is showing one art for many differing things, one way or

could you have mistakenly embedded the wedding art in files?  embedded
art takes precendence i think.

also make sure after you think you have things correct you do a full
clear and rescan.  (not new/updated)

 I'm on Windows, I do have hidden files shown yeah.
 I've only used MP3Tag on 3 albums and embedded the image on them. These
 3 albums work perfectly. So I don't think it's that.
 I could however (if MP3Tag allows it) clear the album art tag off all
 of the albums so it only looks at the jpgs..?

well thats up to you.  if they are working u don't need to fix them,
but like i said i don't like embedded art.

 The wedding singer appears for the songs within the albums folders.
 This is only on the SB and the softsqueeze.
 
 If I look at the folders in Windows Explorer in thumbnail view, they
 have their own (and correct) album art appearing.

forget doing that, windows explorer works off thumbs.db and can be
inconsistent.  doubleclick the actual art files in the folders and make
sure they are correct.

regarding your tags, do you have proper artist and album names
specified on the tags?

did u do a full clear and rescan?

MrSinatra;484520 Wrote: 
 well, u said you see wedding singer for most of your music.
 
 so, the simplest and most likely explanation is you have lots of files
 sharing a folder and thats the art in it.  is that not the case?
 
 if SBS is showing one art for many differing things, one way or
 another, there is a reason for it.

???

 OK, now at home and am currently going through all my albums and
 renaming and front covers to front.jpg.
 Any that don't have images I've chucked into a folder for me to sort
 out later.
 It's definitely only SB that shows the Wedding Singer as the art, tried
 the same song in Media Monkey, WMP11 and Itunes and album art is fine.
 
 One thing though which could be a breakthrough, it only appears to be
 my songs that are affected not the albums. I.E. Any songs that don't
 appear to belong to albums and are loose in My Music have adopted the
 Wedding Singer as it's album cover. Those that reside in album folders
 appear to have the correct covers.
 Does this change things at all?
 
 If I've gone through the process of adding the Front.jpg to all of my
 albums, is there a quick way prey tell that will allow me to embed these
 into the files???
 
 Thanks all

windows likes it to be Folder.jpg instead of something else to do the
windows explorer folder art, just fyi.

and as long as you have it in a folder per album, all will work as
intended.  you don't need to embed anything.

 How do I find out if a song is sharing a folder image then?

i'm not sure if i'm not understanding you or you aren't understanding
me, but SBS assumes that ANY art it finds belongs to ALL the files in a
folder, regardless of anything else.  (the only exception is if a given
file happens to have embedded art as well, then that would supercede)

 Yes, that is when this problem started. All my apps were working fine
 when I was on betas, and when I updated to the final 7.4, I started
 getting this message that my players are registered to another user.
 
 Then last night right before bed, I check the Radio and one Boom, and I
 could access apps! I thought... Great, someone fixed it... but no, this
 morning they are back to showing the message about being registered to
 another user.
 
 
 
 I read your post and thought it did sound similar, except that I never
 created a separate test account. I only have one squeeze account which I
 use for real and for testing.
 
 Yes, I'll let you know if I get it resolved.

interesting...

i've had recurring issues with SN, where clients showed up that weren't
mine and where mine were missing.  i documented this extensively in the
SN forum.  (also had a security issue where i could see others faves)

dean, your msg looks cutoff but glad to see you posting!

i would posit that a shared enclosure is in fact bigger in use than the
sbradios, b/c even though the boom has two speakers, they both use the
one enclosure.
