Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] CamillaDSP

2021-10-03 Thread vco1


Trying to get this working. But the steps are not completely clear to
me.

I followed as much as possible the steps in
https://github.com/Lykkedk/SuperPlayer-v8.0.0---SamplerateChanger-v1.0.0
and https://github.com/Lykkedk/SuperPlayer-v8.0.0--CamillaGUI-v0.6.0.

I do get the Camillagui on port 5000. That page, however, is stating
CamillaDSP is offline. What's needed to get Camilladsp to run?

For the record, I'm running 64bit pCp on a Pi4B.

TIA.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Podcast

2021-01-20 Thread vco1


Still testing this. The issue seems to be limited to this feed:
https://www.relay.fm/mpu/feed

The cause might be that this feed has 570+ episodes (and counting).
Resuming an episode does work from the Recently Played menu though. All
actions on the SB Radio b.t.w.

Seems a bit strange to me that this behaviour is caused by the number of
items in the feed, but I haven't looked at the code yet. So it might be
logical.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Cue file handling

2021-01-14 Thread vco1


I'm still working my way through the code, especially cue.pm. Being not
fluent in Perl (to say the least ;-)) and unfamiliar with the inner
workings of LMS altogether, that takes a while. Still, I'm pretty sure
the handling of a cue sheet with multiple files contains a bug. The fact
that the 'source' files show up in the LMS lists with file type 'cur'
while these should be hidden (line 656 onwards) is one thing I'm looking
into.

I can't share the files unfortunately. It's copyrighted material.
Is there a way to check is there is an embedded cue sheet? My tag editor
(Yate on MacOS), doesn't show anything that remotely looks like there
might be a cue sheet embedded, nor does LMS provide hints. But you never

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Cue file handling

2021-01-14 Thread vco1


Regular CUE sheets, i.e. with one file, are working fine now. Although
I'm still curious to know what the requirements are: do filenames matter
(off course the filename in the cue sheet should be equal to the
filename of the flac/m3 file)? What's the logic for not adding files to
the database when there is a cue sheet?

The multi file CUE sheet is an edge case indeed. And it's already
working better than before (which was not at all ;-)). I'm still testing
with that.

The CUE sheet is bare bones. Nothing fancy, nothing that shouldn't be
there. Also there are no embedded cue sheets available. Let me put it
like this, it would be a nice to have. Although, now LMS is almost
there, it would be nice to get it completely working.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Cue file handling

2021-01-13 Thread vco1


Handling of the CUE file that I posted earlier is okay now. I got this
working by making both the flac filename and cue filename the same. I.e.
artist - album.flac and artist - album.cue. Album title tag has also
been changed in the flac file. And fo course I changed the cue sheet to
reflect the changed flac filename.

I haven't looked in detail at the code yet, but is a particular naming
of the files a requirement for cue sheet handling in LMS?

One thing that's not fully working is the (highly anticpated) change to
handle multiple files in a cue sheet. This works almost. Which is a lot
better than "not at all" as it was in 7.9.x. ;-) However, for this
edge-case scenario, I still see the flac 'source' files in the
tracklist. Renaming these flac files to be artist - album.flac is not
possible obviously, as there are multiple 'source' flac files. So these
need to be somehow unique.

I don't think the long press on pause is the issue. It's the fact that
the Radio should show a menu when resuming a podcast episode. That
doesn't happen. Don't know if that's even possible.

And it doesn't sound silly at all. I'm convinced this is not an easy
task. Especially not when there are still a few different (user)
interfaces to take into account.

Let me know if I can help in any way.

If I play the cue file from there, only 6 tracks show up. And it plays
fine (so it seems, I haven't played the full album).

What seems to be the issue is that the flac file is scanned as an album
track too when there is a cue file in the directory.

I've upgraded to 8.1.1. And the issue persists. That's not a big
surprise, as there haven't been any changes on the Podcast plugin
between 8.1.0 and 8.1.1.

In short the issue is that I can't play a podcast episode if it has been
played before. If I try to play such an episode on the SB Radio the
track/sound that has been previously playing will start, instead of the
selected podcast episode.

A workaround is to use the new(?) "Recently played" menu item. If I
select the episode form there, it will start playing.

Upgraded to 8.1.1 and unfortunately the tracklist is still not okay. It

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Cue file handling

2021-01-13 Thread vco1


Can someone help me how to handle cue files in LMS 8.1.0?

I currently have a few flac files for which I'd like to use a cue file.
However, in LMS the album now shows up including the full flac file. So
there are n+1 tracks in the album, where there should be n tracks. The
extra track being the full album. This file can't be played from the
player. When getting more information for that track/file, it shows up
as File Type "cur".

Shouldn't the flac file be excluded in the scan when there is a cue
file? Or should files have certain names or tags in order to use a cue
sheet?

With an episode that has been played partially. Even if for just a few
seconds.

The episode has been stopped by long-pressing the pause knob on the
Radio.

It works differently in the WebUI. In the WebUI (default webinterface)
you don't get a play button overlay when the podcast has been played
before and can only ' drilldown' on the icon to get to the menu with
"Play from the last position"  and "Play from the beginning". While for
'fresh' podcasts there's a play button on the podcast icon.

Not to blame you (not at all!) - I actually really like and value the
"last position" option introduced in the latest version of the podcast
plugin -, but it really seems this behaviour is caused by the latest
changes to the podcast plugin. For example, commit 556b1bd (use 'url'
instead of "play') makes me think this could be part of the cause.

I get that too. Sometimes. But in a lot of cases I don't get that
option.

Please note that everything worked fine with LMS 7.9.4. And that there
have been a few changes in the Podcast plugin for 8.0/8.1. I have a
feeling there's still a bug in that code. Trying to find it, but Perl is
not a language I'm very familiar with.

The podcasts are Mac Power Users and Appstories. But those are just

Thanks for the help. Based on your advise I installed the Reliable
plugin. Unfortunately that didn't fix the issues. The problem is that
the behaviour is very inconsistent. However, I'd say it fails in some
way 99% of the time.

A couple of podcasts that show this behaviour:
https://www.relay.fm/mpu/feed
https://appstories.net/episodes/feed/

Usually the problem occurs when selecting the latest episode (the one at
the top of the list). Sometimes it doesn't play at all when clicking the
Play or "Enter" knob (enter being the big dial). Sometimes something
starts playing, but not the correct (selected) episode.

For the record, I rebooted both the server and the Radio many times in
between the several tests.

Not sure if it's related to what is mentioned at the top of this thread,
but since I upgraded from 7.9.4 to 8.1.0 (dockerized, everything fresh)
I encountered some strange behaviour with podcasts on my SB Radio.
Basically I can't play podcasts anymore.

What happens is that if I select an episode and press Play, the last
selection plays. That last selection can be another podcast episode, an
album track or an alarm sound. So everything but the podcast that I want
to listen to. ;-)

Everything works fine - i.e. as expected and as before - with
Squeezelite. But not so on the Radio. Any idea what could be wrong?

SB Radio is running firmware 7.7.3-r16676.

well as the one of the topic starter. They're all http too. But not sure

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Multiple files per cue sheet

2019-02-05 Thread vco1


I'm running into the (apparent) edge case of having multiple audio files
per cue sheet. As per my understanding this is a known issue, and in the
code there is a comment that this is still a to do item.

Before jumping into the issue, I'd like to understand the problems with
this scenario, as it's apparently not an easy fix (otherwise it would
have been implemented I assume).

Can someone please tell me briefly what makes this different from a cue
sheet with one audio file? And perhaps even what the expected behavior
should be and (even better) the caveats?

I'm a programmer, but with almost zero experience with perl. But I'm
definitely willing to dive into this issue, if there is a chance it can
be fixed.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Dropped packets on server

2018-08-20 Thread vco1


Quick update. I got rid of this weird behavior, which was b.t.w. not
only occurring with the LMS clients but also when I did a service scan
on the server from my phone, by enabling IGMP snooping on my router. I
was pointed in this direction by reading about comparable behavior
(although not the same ethertype) on some other website. I have no clue
why it's working, but the dropped packets on my LMS server are gone now.

Agreed it's not an LMS issue. More of a Samsung/Android issue it seems.
I'll see if I can find an answer somewhere else.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Dropped packets on server

2018-07-30 Thread vco1


The LMS server is wired. And yes, it looks like the dropped packets are
just the 802.11r ones. So they are dropped rightfully, but shouldn't end
on the server. Their destination should be the AP, not the server,
afaik. The tcpdump show clearly the destination MAC address is that of
the server though.
My setup is roughly as follows:
S8 -> AP (Netgear R7000) -> Router (Asus C7 - Wifi off) -> LMS Server

The AP used to run DD-WRT, but I recently changed it (back) to Netgear's
own FW (latest version). The issue was with DD-WRT as well as the
Netgear FW. The C7 runs OpenWRT.

The Wifi setup seems to be okay. I have no problems except for these
weird packets that are sent to the wrong device.
I agree that the packets should go from phone to AP and shouldn't end up
on the server. But somehow they do. Basically because the target MAC
address is that of the server running LMS.
I do know it's the Samsung S8 is the cause, as I can't reproduce it with
any other (Android) device I have available (using the same apps
obviously). But why is the phone only thinking my server is an AP when
it's used for Squeezebox related activities? No other app is sending out
these packets as far as I'm aware. Can it be LMS is somehow advertised
(or appearing to be) an AP? Sounds strange to me, but I have no clue
what else it can be.
Does anyone else sees this behavior (i.e. dropped packets) on his linux
server with LMS when using a Samsung phone and either Squeeze Ctrl or
Orange Squeeze?

By looking at ifconfig:
RX errors 0  dropped 109  overruns 0  frame 0

I hadn't looked at the LMS logs yet, as I was not aware of the option to
log network events. Thanks for the tip! Just did so and need to go
through the huge log. However, I doubt this will show anything as the
packets are dropped at OS level. Or even at the NIC if I'm not mistaken.
I know there are several possible causes in Linux for dropped packets.
Such as incorrect vlan tags. But I would expect that this would then
also happen with other devices and protocols. And that is not the case.
It's really just these 4 packets at a time with some actions from the
phone to the server.

These packets are clearly related to actions that have to do with
LMS/Squeezebox. They are not generally Wifi related, as I can reproduce
the packet drops 100% of the time. There must be some communication
going on between the Android phone, the server and/or other clients on
the network that's dropped by the Linux server. And as said, it only
happens with actions triggered from Android 8 as far as I can see (i.e.
not with CyanogenMod or a previous version of Android).

Yes. The player is on Wifi.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Dropped packets on server

2018-07-27 Thread vco1


Some strange behaviour here that - although not causing issues - annoys
me a bit. Especially since I have no idea what might be the reason.

I see some dropped network packets on my Debian 9 server running LMS. I
have been able to pinpoint the cause to be related to LMS in combination
with my Samsung S8 phone. This is what is happening:

When I select e.g. New Music from either Orange Squeeze or Squeeze Ctrl
after a rescan (both full and incermental) I see network packets being
dropped on my server. The number is usually around 4 packets each time,
which might be related to the number of players in my network. Also when
I play something via SB Player on my Samsung S8 I can see an increase of
dropped packets. Again no high numbers, just a few per track.

This doesn't happen with iPeng, on tablets or phones running another
version of Android, nor with the Web UI of LMS. So it appears to be
related to either the Samsung phone or the version of Android. However,
the packet loss occurs only for LMS related actions. Otherwise I have
zero packets getting lost, even when using apps on the Samsung phone via
the same Wifi Access Point.

Does anyone with knowledge of the communication between clients and LMS
have any idea what these dropped packets on the server could be?

What an unexpected, strange and rather hostile answer to a sincere
technical question.

By reading the thread before posting my initial question I understood I
am not the only one who has some issues getting this new functionality
to work on his environment. I hoped for some assistance here, in getting
it to work within my network setup.

Good to know. I don't think it makes much of a difference if x.y.z is
192.168.0 or 11.11.11.
Thankfully the proxy is configured correctly, otherwise I'd have great
difficulties in accessing my web apps. ;-) It's just that the latest
release of LMS is not playing nicely in this setup. And I was hoping to
get some advice or suggestions here.

I agree that using a proxy is not the most logical thing in this case. I
use this setup because I want to have the same url scheme for all my web
applications, both those that are available on the internet, and those
that are only available on my internal network. And nowadays browsers
start complaining if a site is not secure while other sites on the same
domain are.

.1 is the gateway and the box on which the reverse proxy runs. I'm
accessing LMS from different ip's. In this case it was .20. The .50 in
my logfile is the server LMS is running on.

Actually, I think it should work if LMS took the X-FORWARDED-FOR header
set by the reverse proxy into consideration. Kind of like this (which is
not my code as I'm not very fluent in Perl):


Code:

$ip = $ENV{'HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'} || $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'};
