FWIW, I tried it too -- with basically the same results.  In my case I
got a stable squeezeboxserver_safe, a stable squeezeboxserver, and then
a second instance of squeezeboxserver that would die and be restarted
every 5 seconds.

I don't know exactly how squeezeboxserver_safe works, but I tried for a
little while to debug the problem anyway.  Didn't see anything obvious,
though, and my linux distro includes start-stop-daemon -- so I reverted
to the init script from the .deb package, and everything works fine
again.

My initial thoughts were your changes as it is a playing stream that
stops but dates didn't match - similar to the podcast issue but much
shorter.
That's why I next thought of support libraries change which match
version but don't seem likely as streams are connected and playing so
main https negotiation is finished.

Ok, I have the same issue I think. Some of my artists do not sort
correct. I noticed in the library.db that the namesort field is filled
with "VARIOUS ARTISTS" instead of its artist name in upper case. 
I probably understand your point wrong to use the artistsort and
albumartistsort fields, as a lot of my artists that dó sort correct do
not have the artistsort and albumartistsort fields filled. But for test
I have edited these and filled with artist name. 
Now after a rescan, it still sorts incorrect and when I look in the
library.db the contributors that do not sort, still have "VARIOUS
ARTISTS" in the namesort field. 
Also when I have chosen to do a clean and rescan, still the namesort
field has not changed.

What can be done to modify this specific field? Can I edit it in the db
direct, will it persist, or will a new scan overwrite and revert to old
value (or will something else break)?

Where does it even pick up this value, cause in mp3tag I see it
nowhere?

Regards, Huey

See the conversation above with michael and myself, regarding

I just tested it again, and I no longer have the issue.  My system loads
a fair number of things upon login, so I had to wait a minute or so

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS on MacOS 10.15 "Catalina"?

2020-10-04 Thread apassio


I am on MacOS Catalina 10.15.7 and use Logitech Media Server Version:
7.9.3 - 1597753178.
I had the same issue as described by many users since on latest Catalina
release: library (which is located on external USB drive) looks empty,
scanning shows 0 files.

I gave full disk access to perl, bash, sh and smbd as described in quote
below. 
After that, I restart LMS and I can scan my library and read files, all
good.

The problem is that after rebooting the mac, LMS seems to lose full disk
access again: impossible to read files...
In the security pane, the full disk access seems to be still there...
I have to delete perl,bash, sh and smbd full disk access there and put
it back, then it works... until next reboot.

Any ideas?

Thanks

When a stream is being played "direct" by a player - then if LMS is
stopped , the player may continue playing.

A stream will only play direct if it can play the stream natively. 
*For all SB3 and later player - HTTP/MP3
* For radio, Touch = HTTP/MP3 and HTTP/AAC
* Squeezelite (about May 2019) can support HTTP & HTTPS  - MP3 & AAC and
I think other audio formats.


So if a player stops and when LMS is stopped - then stream is probably
not playing directly.  Output from log with player.source will show how
LMS is treating the stream.

Hi,

Thanks bpa for all this instructions.
I'll try to conform the closest I can.

By the way I have a question regarding the stream being played directly
by the player.
I've unsync the 2 players I have stopped one and only play the other on
FIP stream using the plugin provided by Paul (http stream).
The player is not proxied.
When I kill the LMS server process than the player stops playing. Is it
normal or have I missed a configuration somewhere ?
Thanks

I think I've tried all the suggestions here other than going into
Terminal which is beyond me. perl is enabled in full disc access but
bash does not appear in bin list. Im running Catlina 10.15.7 and LMS
7.9.3. My music is in a folder on an external hard drive and LMS will
not scan it. Have I missed something?

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Very strange scanner bug. Seems to be seeing my Tidal accounts as albums

2020-10-04 Thread gvh


I have actually seen something of this bug since LMS8 and Michael's
first attempts to integrate Tidal's data into the main LMS data.
However I now have Tidal set to debug in the logs so caught a lot more
of it.

I have a Tidal family account and both accounts are configured on
MySqueezebox.com
I was on the Tidal app and saw 2 new albums I fancied trying so added
them to favourites.
I then switched to the LMS UI and found all my Tidal albums missing from
the catalogue (it happens sometimes) so ran a scan for changes.

Here's the bizarre bit, it looks like the code or the Tidal API is
listing the email addresses of each account as Albums.
You will see it say "Importing album tracks for 2 albums..."  those two
albums are the email addresses of each Tidal account!
Obviously below I have replaced the email addresses but I hope it's
clear what's going wrong
The scan then successfully picks up Artists and Playlists, it's just
albums going wrong.

Michael, I'm very happy to send you the full logs etc. if it helps
