Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Product Announcement - Squeeze Mobile
Great application, so I hope it some day will come to work on my setup also, which is a QNAP TS-119, using SSOTS 3.18 with SC 7.3.3. I can connect and play a tune for about 2 sec. then it stops. A few times it wil continue after long time, but then again only for a couple of seconds. My wifi connection should be OK, which I can confirm as there is no ploblen listening to MP3 files from the QNAP TwonkyMedia via UPnP using PlugPlayer on my iPod Touch. Also I can listen to MP3 files on the iPos Touch using streams.mp3 from Squezecenter initiated from iPeng.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Howto: streaming FM radio with embedded RDS information
Send a PM to the OP ( eflafargue) as he starting trying to modify it. The plugin is minimal - the main difficulty will be trying to create IOCTLs to control/read silabs dongles. The Radioshark plugin works for 32 bit distros - the IOCTL data structure may vary depending on 32 bit or 64 bit kernel. Since I now have an ADS version, at some point I may look at the issue but I think it may be a dead end since Silabs are supposed to have stopped producing the chipset. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=64661 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

My Marantz amp takes ages to produce sound after being turned on but accepts remote commands almost instantly. Maybe yours is the same? - I think my pause is around 600ms.

Any idea why the script needs to run this command with su in the first place? Although running the script asks me for my password, simply running: /path/to/MusicMagicServer start works without needing sudo or a password. In fact, if I edit the script so that the line that reads: su - user -c $MUSICHOMEMusicMagicServer start /dev/null now reads /path/to/MusicMagicServer start /dev/null then I can run the script from the command line and it works with no password.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Start MusicIP at boot on Ubuntu
the reason why it has the su in there is to run the mmserver as a nonpriveleged user instead of root. So, it is supposed to switch to that account when it launches mmserver...so, I can see why it would ask for a password if you aren't root to start with when you are playing around with it on the command line. I'm kinda of a linux newbie too but as I understand it all the scripts in your /etc/init.d are run by root during bootup. Actually, I think the symlinks that are found in your /etc/rc*.d are run based on the runlevel. Maybe there isn't a symlink in your /etc/rc*.d folder prompting it to run at start? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBootupHowto so, no, you shouldn't have to enable the root login, it was just a way to see if it worked for you that way or not. 2 other things come to mind: 1) I also installed BUM to make sure that mmserver started before squeezecenter (just like in that wiki article I linked before) 2) the reason I had to switch to nohup su was because with 9.04 Ubuntu is moving away from the /etc/init.d method to something else, supposedly. They talk about it in that link above. Maybe on a fresh install it just doesn't work anymore and I got lucky with the upgrade? Anyway, it sounds like I'm just leading you on a wild goose chase -- maybe someone with more ubuntu knowledge can jump in and solve it better than me! -- the_arm the_arm's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9891 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66953 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: SqueezeIR - A Generic Infra-Red Remote Control Applet for the Duet's SBC
indifference_engine;449631 Wrote: Please don't ask me to write functions to support your devices as I can't test them, nor can I magically discover what protocol or codes your devices use! If I remember correctly the IR-receiver in the Squeezebox devices posts all codes to SqueezeCenter and SqueezeCenter decides what to do with them. By default it just ignores everything beside the IR commands from the Squeezebox remote. Does this mean that it would be possible to make a SqueezeCenter plugin that picked up an IR signal and translated it to a format that's supported by the SqueezeIR applet, just to make it easier to configure SqueezeIR ? Similar to the learn function available in most universal remote controls. Or doesn't the IR receiver in the Squeezebox devices pick up all kinds of IR signals ? -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66795 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Start MusicIP at boot on Ubuntu
slamhound;451508 Wrote: Thanks. I'm not sure I want to enable login as su, as it seems that it is not recommended for security reasons (though I'm still relatively new to Ubuntu, so will read up some more about it). Any idea why the script needs to run this command with su in the first place? Although running the script asks me for my password, simply running: /path/to/MusicMagicServer start works without needing sudo or a password. In fact, if I edit the script so that the line that reads: su - user -c $MUSICHOMEMusicMagicServer start /dev/null now reads /path/to/MusicMagicServer start /dev/null then I can run the script from the command line and it works with no password. It still doesn't run at boot; but this might be progress. Try to add this line to your /etc/rc.local file: /path/to/MusicMagicServer start /dev/null -- raven22 raven22's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16511 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66953 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
