Re: [slim] 2 cases of Transporter freezing

 I just had my Transporter for one day, and already I encountered two
 cases where is froze up and required a power off reset.

Did you give your player a name? There's an issue with players locking up  
if they don't have a name set.

 It seems like you can program it to skip low ratings.
It would work, but for what you want to do it sounds like you would be
better of with one of the other plugins mentioned. Custom Skip is
useful if you really NEVER wants to play anything with low ratings.
However, if you only have this need in random or smart playlists, you
would be better of with iTunesPartyShuffle or SQL Playlist plugins.

Re: [slim] Low footprint integrated headless player required

2008-03-16 Thread ModelCitizen

Jim,

thanks for your useful reply.

I have given up attemptimng anything with SqueezeSlave for two
reasons:

1) It's volume output is extremely low (almost inaudible)
2) When synced it causes my other players to stop emitting any sound
whatsoever (even though to all intents and purposes they look like they
are playing music)

I have realised (mainly through reading one of your old posts) that a
file called softsqueezeheadless.exe is included in the SoftSqueeze
installation. This does exactly what I want. However, I have failed to
manage to install it as a Windows service. I've downloaded the Windows
Tools and used your instructions but it would not install. Then I read
the Windows Tools helpfile and tried a lot of other paths. None of
which worked. You seem quite experienced at this sort of thing. Can you
tell at a glance what I am doing wrong? I've copied the commands I've
tried below. All installations are in default paths and all the paths
I've used are verifyably correct. All the files I am referencing are
installed.

Thanks for any help.

Same here.  I like keeping the separate discs in individual foldoers so
that when I browse the album in Windows Explorer I don't have to see
something like:

01 Dawn - Go Within.flac
01 She's Not There.flac
02 Carnaval.flac
02 Flor D'Luna (Moonflower).flac
03 Let The Children Play.flac
03 Soul Sacrafice - Head, Hands  Feet (Drum Solo).flac
etc.

 For this album, however, it kept appearing as two discs. After some
 false paths (e.g. trying to work out whether I needed a BAND tag as
 well as an ALBUMARTIST tag), I realised that disc 2 (which had mutiple
 artists) had COMPILATION set and disc 1 (which only had Billy Bragg as
 the artist) did not. It took me a while to notice as this was not my
 tagging: that would have either come from CDDB or MusicBrainz--I
 suspect the latter. So I set all the COMPILATION flags and now it
 appears as one album. At some point I will experiment and see what
 happens if I turn the flag off. I don't have any other multi-disc sets
 where one disc contains only a single artist, so it's a bit of an
 unusual scenario.

Yeah, I don't think you could have the COMPILATION field set
differently and expect them to be seen as the same album.  The ARTIST
fields will, of course, also play a big role.

Re: [slim] Two Independent Servers?

2008-03-16 Thread Zaragon

You can essentially have as many music servers running at the same time
on your network as it will support. When you get into the network
config of a slim player (either hold left arrow or re-power it) you can
choose between the available players.

Different versions of server may require different versions of the
firmware in the squeezeplayer. The player will prompt you to get the
required version (by holding brightness) that it needs.

Longer term, if anyone wants to maintain multiple servers, it is
probably best to have them all on the same server version.

You don't have to make any new playlist, the point I was trying to make
is that the SB automatically creates a playlist called Now Playing
when you are playing an album, or some playlist you've defined
yourself. If you press the Home/Power button on the remote once or
twice (depending on whether you are already in the home menu) you will
be brought to the screen showing the currently playing number (Now
Playing). If you then press the middle button you are brought to the
Now Playing playlist. If you do that, do you see more than one track
when If no, then there are no tracks to go fwd or back to.

 
 Also, are there any shortcuts to toggle shuffle on/off. I'm finding
 that I miss that button from the squeezebox days.
 

No shortcut AFAIK.

Re: [slim] Wireless Connection refresh

2008-03-16 Thread Zaragon

You can factory default the player by holding + whilst you plug it in.

However, that won't remove your neighbour's network name. The player is
scanning for all the networks that it can see as it doesn't know which
is yours. It then gives you the choice to tell it which is yours.

It will then go through the configuration of the network that you told
it to use. As you step through the configuration screens you will most
likely see the choices and information that you entered previously.
Just change/overwrite with new information. (It remembers values so you
don't have to enter them after re-powering the player.)

The only time being able to see your neighbour's network may be a
problem is if both you and they are using the same channel. This can
reduce your wireless range as they would interfere with each other. To
determine if they are you would need a PC with wireless and a software
package such as netstumber or similar.

Generally wireless networks tend to default to around channel 6. So if
you are having range problems try changing yours to channel 1 or 11.

Re: [slim] Playing cd's

2008-03-16 Thread bpa

I've got the auto discovery of CD and supplying track info working OK on
Linux. I now need to test on Windows.

I wanted to check cdda2wav out a bit more on Linux to make sure that
the plugin could use the same application (cdda2wav) across Linux, Mac
and Windows. Once I get the Windows and Linux in good shape, I want to
sort out the MAC OSX command line options.

I was hoping to make the CDplayer plugin a little more user tolerant
particularly if a user presses eject button when playing a track. 
Unfortunately on my Linux system, there is something wrong with Linux
cdrom driver and pressing eject when playing a CD hangs the system and
it needs to be be rebooted so I've stopped testing the Eject button.
This happens with all CD playing apps not just cdda2wav so it is a
Linux driver/kernel issue.

I'll test the same issue on Windows so at worst users of CDplayer will
be warned what not to do.

Re: [slim] Low footprint integrated headless player required

2008-03-16 Thread Zaragon

As JJZolx has corrected the suggested command I thought I'd just add for
anyone else that in general, for windows, if a filename or a directory
name contains spaces then you have to place the whole string within
double quotes. Otherwise the spaces look like separators between a
command an its parameters.

ie c:\program files\myprog.exe would like like you are trying to run
c:\program with a parameter of files\myprog.exe

So c:\program files\myprog.exe would be:
c:\program files\myprog.exe

You may also have to do this if you are trying to pass a path to
another programme.
eg myprog c:\all my music\musicfiles
to avoid it looking like three parameters to myprog enclose the
parameter in double quotes as in:
myprog c:\all my music\musicfiles

Or just keep a copy of an older version of SqueezeCenter (which

Fatawan;280158 Wrote: 
 Thanks Zaragon--That sounds like an easy enough solution(after I looke
 dt all up :) ). I do have an ethernet port in the theater, AND in the
 equipment room, so I could easily do an access point plus a switch. I
 need more wired connections in the equipment room anyway.

Glad to be of service. I thought I'd mention that a Wireless Access
Point (WAP) isn't a wireless router. So you will need to be a little
careful in your choice.

Although physically they can be identical they have different control
software. Some wireless routers can be configured to be just access
points though. Unfortunately for some reason access points often seem
to be a lot more expensive that wireless routers.

For anyone considering multiple access points/wireless routers. The key
element is the IP address. Unless you manually assign all devices with
their own unique IP address then ideally only one device should be a
DHCP server giving out IP addresses. If there has to be two or more
DHCP servers then ensure that the addresses that they give out do not
overlap each other but that they are all within the same network
address range.

Typical home equipment defaults to using the address range
192.168.0.X/24 or 192.168.1.x/24 (The 24 refers to a simple netmask of
255.255.255.0). This gives a maximum of 254 addresses (since you can't
use .0 or .255 as these are used to broadcast to all devices on the
network). Just ensure that the range of the .X doesn't overlap on any
DHCP server and not fogetting the servers/router's own address.

Using DHCP in general and multiple DHCP in particular means any device
can change it's IP address at any time so you cannot rely upon it for
security or any block/allow filters such as in SqueezeCentre.

Hello,

I've looked around the different options for what and how to show

way to browse through an artist's albums than alphabetically. Is there

[slim] Bug in the 'sleep' mode - not saving song location

Poweroff, its set to Pause/ Pause at power on.  that way, for long
albums, if remembers where it was.  Now, when I power off manually, all
is fine and it saves the location.  All is good.

Re: [slim] Why is SlimServer so slow?

2008-03-16 Thread Zaragon

Daniel it is probably worth you spending time un-installing all the
applications that you don't use. Not just to stop any errors you may
have picked up from the RAID resize.

It is surprising how many applications install all those little helper
things in odd places like the system tray to make it 0.25 seconds
quicker to start up. Or have additional utilities like iTunes that has
the device synchroniser to sync up the iPod which you don't have. All
of which need time to start up and shut down and their potential to
cause instability. Not to mention how the registry gets bloated.

All of which shouldn't have much effect on performance unless you are
overloading available real memory. It would be worth looking at the
process list when SC is running slow to see if anything else is hogging
the CPU or memory.

One thing that just occurred to me that perhaps others with more
knowledge can comment on. You get thrashing on startup if SC isn't
closed down before you shut down the PC. I'd hazard a guess at that
being the database doing a consistency check (I don't know mySQL.) on
startup because it has found it to be in an inconsistant state. That
sort of thing I'd expect if it was unexpectedly terminated or if data
wasn't flushed before shutdown. Way back when the issue for external
RAID arrays was always ensuring write cache data was flushed to all
relevant array disks before shutting down the array, if it wasn't you
got RAID resyncs on startup as the array checked itself for consistency
and then DB consistency checks if the RAID didn't adjust properly.

Since Windows asks apps to close and doesn't force terminate them they
should all shut down cleanly and it should also be aware to flush all
the disc caches. So it shouldn't be a problem. But...something is.

can't the service start it?

The posting I made 2006-01-26, 18:00 is still, I believe, technically
correct.

Cross-fading synched players requires a different synch method, which
in turn requires (or so they said back then) a different network time
base. I don't believe I saw network time base in the feature list for
7, and it's a complex addition to the protocol, not something they
could just toss in casually.

If the power is simply removed such as trying to reboot or through a

Although I haven't played with services I think there is a little
confusion here.

What I think you are doing here is setting up a service that when run
starts softsqueeze.

The Instsrv command installs a new service. That service runs the
srvany.exe application. What you then need to so is to edit the
registry entry for the new service that you created to point it as
softsqueeze. I'm assuming that srvany.exe gets a parameter which is the
path of softsqueeze when it runs on startup.

Here is a link to a Microsoft Support article

[slim] Moved back on SS6.5.1 and XP ...where is SS6.5.4?

2008-03-16 Thread your momo

Was forced to resum on SS6.5.1 and XP as my NAS DS107+ solution is not
able to work reliably.
Mid December 07, I update my server from SS6.5.1 on XP to SS6.5.4 on
DS107+ running SSODS. Installation works easy and performance was close
to perfection during about 6 weeks.
Then sometimes DS was not able to start or was freezing during playback
...each time I was forced to cut the main power. I try re-installing
same SS and SSOD, but it only works fine on that day. Next power up the
same mess was back with never ending start and freeze...

So I move all my music back on an external USB HDD and I was looking
for to get SS6.5.4 for XP to download, but no way to find it on Slim
Devices site, I can only have SC7.0...

As I'm really not ready to risk the move to SC yet, I jump back on the
SS6.5.1 copy I keep on my HDD. It works fine but my Transporter
downgarde FW from 31 to 27 and my product is now back from Logitech to
Slim Devices...
I don't dropped yet the idea to be Windows free, but I will use my PC
based setup for listening until the bug on DS station is understood
...it may takes time.
On the other end I would appreciate if somebody can tell me where to
find SS6.5.4 for Windows ?

Re: [slim] Many Favorites disappearing

2008-03-16 Thread mdconnelly

Curiouser and curiouser...

OK, after reboot, the 3 things in Favorites are not the same ones that
I expect to be there and are there when I reinstall SC7.  The 3 that
are there after reboot I believe are links that I had there when I was
using SC7 in beta.

Strangely enough, I changed SqueezeCenter startup from at login to a
service and that resolved the problem.

At this point, it's working correctly, but I still don't have a clue
what it was doing.

[slim] How SoftSqueeze cheated SlimServer?

2008-03-16 Thread Ning Bao
Hi!

I just installed SlimServer/SqueezeCenter 7.0 and I was amazoned by its new
design and features, especially the integration of third party online
services, such as mp3tunes.

However, I didn't plan to buy a SqueezeBox, but use a simple software mp3
player to stream the audio from SlimServer.

Well, my problem is that SlimServer does NOT allow me to do that with the
third party serviced. I was trying to play my music collections on mp3tunes,
but SlimServer gave me the error message of Your player is not authorized
to connect to SqueezeNetwork.

Later, I discovered that SoftSqueeze can cheat SqueezeCenter and
successfully play mp3tunes music without any poblem.

Can some one explain to me how SoftSqueeze did this CHEATING, or how
SqueezeCenter checks whether the player is authorized or not.

Thanks

[slim] FYI be aware of Mac adress when using Wol

2008-03-16 Thread Mnyb

Hello all, I've recently moved my Squeezecenter to another server
(mini-itx).

My Squeezebox was smart enough to find my new server, with out entering
the full setup and started playing right off. No problem at all with any
performance.

Then i tried to make Wake On LAN work with my new server, I spent this
weekend tracing the problem, today I realized that it could not be the
server, I had done everything right.

Then I examined the current settings in My Squeezebox and realized
that it had changed the server adress but it still retained the Mac
address of my old server !! bingo !

I've entered the correct Mac and now everything is working fine.

/Mikael

fyi.
I'm using fixed IP's in my network if that had anything to do with it,
i know nothing of the mechanism that fetches the server Mac, I have no
memory of actually entering this info during the original setup ?

[slim] SBR as wireless bridge?

Hi all,

Can the Squeezebox Receiver work as a wireless bridge, to connect a
wired-only device to the wireless network via the SBR?

I've had this working in the past with an old SB2 - but, if it is

it.

Yeah the feature is there. The only hardware difference between the

Re: [slim] What happened to performance options?

2008-03-16 Thread newgrange28

Thanks for the heads up: this article seems to be a bit outdated.

So there's no longer a way to avoid artwork scan? If I point it to an
empty directory will it stop at that point or will it consider that a
fail and go on to walk the music subdirectories anyway?

What version have you been running before? What OS? Any chance you got
a backup of the configuration file?

Previous version was whatever the one on the primary download page was
as of the day the Squeezenetwork update was pushed (I checked to see if
7 was there yet that day, and it was still the one I had. XP. Nope.

But that setting is presented to you twice before the initial scan
starts (when you select the music source and on the summary page of the
wizard). You should have seen it's been changed before the lengthy
scan.

By the wizard you mean the installer .exe? I didn't see those options
atall. Oh well.

I do think it's a failing that I can't change ALL the settings on
multiple tabs without triggering a scan each time I save ONE of them.

Re: [slim] Problems Keeping SBC Connected via wireless

2008-03-16 Thread Doukg Walch

Here's a test I did that, in my mind points to either the player or the
software.  I'm running wireless and also have dropped connections, or
drop outs.  When I say wireless, I'm connected using two linksys
wrt54gls, on of which is in bridge mode. This was done after having
just one wrt56gl.  I installed the second hoping it would provide me
with a stronger signal - to no avail.

So then, I simple replace the SlimDevice, and put a laptop in place,
pluging it into the second router.  Guess what? No dropped
connections.

I too love this device and wish it would just work.  My next step is
upgrade to version 7, but if I still have dropped connections, then
that's the end of the line for me.

Re: [slim] Problems Keeping SBC Connected via wireless

2008-03-16 Thread poulsen11

I am still in the long slow process of debugging this situation.

I turned off wireless security on my router as i mentioned in my post
above, and thought that had improved the situation, however about 1
hour after having done the factory reset with the new security disabled
wireless, the drop-outs returned again. 

At this point the only way for me to control the SBR using the SBC is
to turn it off and on every time i want to 'change something' (such as
pause, ff, etc).

The SBR can be very reliably controlled via the squeezecenter
software.

Everything indicates that my wireless signal strength is fine.

I have used msconfig to disable all services/firewalls/anti-virus off
of the machine i am running squeezecenter on.  This still does not make
a difference.

My thinking now is that there is something defective about my SBC.  I
am in contact with anoop from techsupport.  I can only hope that he can
help me to resolve these problems.

Thanks for the reply btw.

Jim

Re: [slim] Problems Keeping SBC Connected via wireless

2008-03-16 Thread Zaragon

Since you say that setting up the SBR in bridge mode (I assume you mean
ad-hoc) with the controller accessing the network via the SBR and it
works without a problem, then this, to my mind, points the issue at
your wireless router.

If you really do mean bridge mode, the SBR is accessing the network via
wireless and your controller never drops out then it kind of still
points to the wireless router.

What may be happening is that if a device is only infrequently
accessing an access point then the access point can turn down the
transmit power. With the SBR in ad-hoc mode the SBC isn't accessing the
router so no problems. With the SBR bridging it will keep the router AP
active with power levels high.

Of course it may have nothing to do with it.

May be worth looking for any options in the router config for power
saving or similar.

I am running on mac OSX.5.2.  The only slightly unusual thing is that
the wireless network I am using to connect to Squeezecenter is a
subnetwork of my Time capsule (because SB3 currently won't speak to
SB3).  

Now the key point is that this set-up was working just fine with
Slimserver 6.5.4.  After the upgrade to 7.0.0, it won't connect to
squeezenetwork or squeezecenter.  There have been no changes in any
network settings.

Is there anything I need to set up in 7.0.0 or any legacy files i need
to remove or any other suggestions?

Much appreciated.

Tony

Re: [slim] SqueezeCenter issues

2008-03-16 Thread Zaragon

This may need some clarification of what you are trying to do. If I can
paraphrase let me see if I have this correct.

You had a version prior to SC7 installed and working OK.

You installed SC7 and using your SB remote connected the SB to the
SqueezeNETWORK ie not your local server. You can play internet
streaming by using the SB remote or a browser connected to the
SqueezeNETWORK.

If you direct your browser at the local SC you don't see the SB listed
in the player list.

Is this correct?

If so, with the SB connected to SqueezeNetwork it isn't connected to
the local SC so it won't be seen by the local SC in a browser window.
Use the SB remote to change the SB back to local SqueezeCentre.

If you correctly entered your SqueezeNetwork identity in your local
SqueezeCentre then on the player selection dropdown it should list your
player as connected to SqueezeCenter, selecting it send a message to
SqueezeNetwork to tell your player to reconnect to the SqueezeCentre.
If you don't see that then there may be a problem with your
SqueezeCentre accessing SqueezeNetwork.

[slim] scanner.exe hogs CPU

2008-03-16 Thread kimballhouse

A previous thread on this topic suggested that there was a setting
somewhere that could prevent scanner.exe from constantly hogging the
CPU.  

Where is this setting?  iTunes? SqueezeCenter? or somewhere else on the
computer?  I am using Windows XP.

Thanks

Re: [slim] SqueezeCenter issues

This may be the 7.0 bug if your player has no name.

Has your player got a name ? if not then give it a name and see if it
fixes the problem/

Re: [slim] SqueezeCenter issues

2008-03-16 Thread Maxwell

I have my Squeezebox named, that is not the issue. The issue is when I
try to connect to the SqueezeCenter through the Squeezebox it says it
is connecting then gives me a black screen with no interface at all.
And when I try to manage my Squeezebox through my browser it says that
there is no device found. Thanks for the note on my humor... I really
think that this was meant to be a usable upgrade, however I think I may
just have some settings askew. I still have an email out to SlimDevices
support, but any further suggestions would be well received.

Re: [slim] Low footprint integrated headless player required

2008-03-16 Thread JJZolx

ModelCitizen;280295 Wrote: 
 I followed your instructions and a service was created that called
 C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\srvany.exe, not
 softsqueezeHeadless.exe as it should. I've corrected the path in the
 regsitry but the service won't start. I'm about to delete the service
 and try setting it up from scratch.

That's exactly what it's supposed to do.  The program that runs as a
service is srvany.exe (Serve Any).  It's a wrapper that is used to
run other programs as Windows services.  Normally, in order for a
program to run as a service it has to be designed to do so.

So you install this little wrapper program that in turn runs your
desired program.  That's what the 'Parameters' key in the registry is
for.  It tells srvany what program to run.  When the service is running
you should see both processes running under Windows Task Manager -
srvany.exe and softsqueezeheadless.exe (or squeezeslave.exe).

SoftsqueezeHeadless is a good bit harder to run as a service than
Squeezeslave, since you must somehow first configure all the connection
parameters that it will use (normally done from the gui interface),
while with Squeezeslave you just pass the connection data on the
command line.  I have them both configured as services ony my work PC,
but usually use Squeezeslave.  I'd try it again and see if you can't
fix the volume issue.

One other thing... In investigating where Softqueeze stores its
settings (haven't found them yet) I see that I created a local user
(called Squeeze, what else?) on my PC used to run the services.  That
may be necessary to pull this off.  So create a new user and give it a
password, then go into the Services manager and have the service log on
using that account.

Re: [slim] Problems Keeping SBC Connected via wireless

2008-03-16 Thread poulsen11

Zaragon, 

First of all, thanks for the response.

When i said 'bridged mode' in a previous post i was referring to the
setup where the SBR is wired and the SBC connects directly to the SBR
via ad-hoc network.  Sorry if i confused things by saying bridged mode
below. This situation does take the wireless network out of the
equation and should point to the wireless network being the problem.

However, the thing that still keeps me thinking that something is wrong
with the SBC and not the router (or its settings) is that the SBR has no
problems connecting and holding connection with the router wirelessly. 
It will play music without end connected to my home network wirelessly.
I can also control the SBR flawlessly with the squeezecenter software
when it is connected to the wireless router wirelessly.

I only tried the ad-hoc 'bridged' mode for debugging purposes.  Given
the location of the receiver i want to use i must use full wireless or
'normal' mode.

The only thing that is having problems connecting is the SBC.  Even if
i continuously use the SBC while the router, SBC and SBR are all in the
same room (when all is set up to be wirelessly connected) it still loses
its connection. Setting things up like this was another attempt to debug
the situation.
