What do you mean by "jumping between the two"? Does it automatically
switch? Then you probably have an unstable connection between one of
your players and the server.
iPeng remembers the last player you used and keeps using it - unless
it's no longer there, then iPeng selects another one at random.

You can put Qobuz directly on the main menu by editing the main menu.
Pull it down (on iPad) or use the "Edit" button under "More.." (iPhone),
then you can rearrange everything through Drag

No, unfortunately not. I had one but very, very few people ever read it
and one problem is that everybody's setup is differently and so much
functionality is actually not determined by iPeng but by the server. So
in many cases there simply would be nothing we could write into the
manual about a lot of topics.
There's the blog explaining a lot of things
(https://penguinlovesmusic.de/twitter-discuss-it-all/) and there are the
help screens in the App itself.

> It will be the player part of iPeng that has the issue

I find this very confusing. I've been trying to diagnose it for a while
to find out what the actual problem is.

Thing is... for me it's not actually iPeng but the server causing
issues:


Code:


  -: ERROR while decoding metadata
  state = FLAC__STREAM_DECODER_END_OF_STREAM
  /Users/joergbeta/Install/Squeezebox/slimserver/Bin/darwin-x86_64/sox FAIL 
formats: can't open input  `-': WAVE: RIFF header not found
  



That's from the server logs.

Also... all of the streams actually play for me for a while until I run
into these issues which apparently derail things completely.

Whenever I was seeing issues they were happening when playing OGG/FLAC
and transcoding to a regular FLAC container.
I _suspect_ what's happening here is that iPeng forces the server to
transcode. The reason is that iPeng doesn't support OGG right now due to
another odd issue that prevents Spotify OGG streams to play (and that I
have actually no idea what causes it. The stock ogg/vorbis decoder iPeng
uses throws errors and I have no idea why these streams work on other
setups).
So when playing in iPeng the server needs to transcode the OGG/FLAC
streams because iPeng requests FLAC and then the server seems to
eventually run into issues with the streams and bails out on them. From
that point on I see the player no longer responding.

@mherger have you looked into the server logs when you tried this?

That would be a server-side change right now. This whole menu is
server-generated, not created by iPeng.

Good to know then. In this case it was probably related to the
transcoding or something. I really need to get the native OGG/Vorbis
with Spotify to run on iPeng again, I just don't have the slightest idea
as to why it doesn't work, so right now the transcoding is required.

No, currently not.
You should still be able to play 192kHz material through iPeng as long
as you allow the server to transcode it (that works by default), but
iPeng's output will be limited to 96kHz sample rates

This is difficult because iPeng would have had to manually implement all
the equalization and that would then also probably have to run on one of
the co-processing units.
That said... just because it's difficult doesn't mean it's impossible
and Apple added new filter capabilities (although currently they
conflict with the timing requirements iPeng has to guarantee sync), so
that might come one day. It's certainly not something that will come in
the short term, though, I'm afraid.

What type os Raspberry Pi is this (what generation) and what file format
are you playing?

Generally, sync between different player types works but it's a question
of timing.
Not so much computing power but the exactness of the timing on the
player.

Where you need computing power is on the server side. Older RPis had
very bad timing behavior, that can cause some trouble but newer ones
usually work OK.

What can make things more difficult is also if the different players
support different file formats, if one of them doesn't support something
then the server needs to start transcoding.
iPeng's limits are that it doesn't support sample rates beyond 96kHz,
currently no OGG/Vorbis (because that causes issues with Spotify) and
iPeng uses a bigger buffer than other players which can under certain
circumstances confuse the server. For the latter, iPeng has a
configuration setting in the playback settings.
One other thing that often causes trouble is if you stream raw WAV/PCM
for lossless formats instead of FLAC (which is the default in LMS).
iPeng throws that data directly at iOS but iOS sometimes guesses the
sample rate wrong and that can cause all kind of weird effects. If you
set your server to transcode to WAV or PCM I'd recommend against that.

That's pretty much all I can think of right now in terms of problems.

Yes, I really need to get this out. It's a feature that needs to be
added specifically and Apple laid a lot of new road blocks in your way
for updates so I deferred this for a while (plus I had really little
time last year for it because I focused a lot on an iPeng rewrite).

Will see what I can do...

Unfortunately that would make iPeng lose the capability to also use
things like lock screen controls, remote control (e.g. from a dock) and
use of the buttons.
You can also not select the App type at runtime.

Can you somehow give me a way to test this?
This is horribly complicated. iPeng needs to be compatible with a
plethora of LMS versions so I can't just change the behavior for new
setups or something and the behavior of XMLBrowser is pretty messy.
It's all a consequence of the very bad design decision to have LMS
controllers not content aware (they are just views, not real controllers
in LMS' design).

I need to test this to check what's happening.

Could you mail me about it?

That's a very messy behavior of some car audio systems.
Essentially, what the car's system is doing is triggering a play command
to be sent to the last active audio App.
In your case, that's iPeng. iOS wakes up iPeng and tells it to play,
it's like using the lock screen control. If iPeng is still connected to
your WiFi it does just that.

The correct workaround would be to keep the car audio system from
automatically playing music whenever your phone gets connected. Or to
make sure iPeng is no longer on WiFi.
A workaround would be to use a different audio App after iPeng, that
would then play automatically in your car.

iPeng looks for playable URLs (audio files, streams etc.) in the
clipboard. If it finds any, it presents a menu to allow you to play it
on the current player or add to favorites.
If it doesn't find any, it does nothing.

It's away to play links people share through email or social media.

The iPhone‘s general volume setting. That’s why I said „outside of

This can happen whenever the volume on the iPhone is set to 100%
actually not exactly 100% but between 99.5 and 100 but that’s out of
your control).
It should help to decrease the iOS volume outside iPeng by one click.

Tracks will be hard, I'll see what can be done with intents.
The problem is: you need to add a specific intent for every track or
find a way to handle it afterwards. An intent for each track is
impossible, some people have millions of them and you need to specify
them upfront. Processing it later will likely be too slow I'll have

It does. More or less. That's why what you are seeing is confusing me a
bit.
Have you enabled the Equalizer for iPeng Playback?

Here's the thing: you can't really completely passthrough on iOS, you
don't really have full access to the USB driver.
So you have to play audio through the system audio queue.
iPeng does configure this to the bitrate it's getting, though, and is
sending the PCM audio data as is.

This generally works fine as long as the data is really PCM.
If it's not PCM, but just using PCM as a container while sending
something else, there can be issues as soon as some part of your system
decides that it needs transcoding/bitrate changes. Then your data is no
longer correct.

In your case it looks indeed like iOS for some reason thinks it needs to
transcode the audio data to 44.1/16 or something.

Are you sure the DAC worked with HighRes material on that same iPad?
If yes, please really check the equalizer settings. The equalizer should
not have an effect on the sample rate/word size but you never know.

Hm, could you please - while playing something - bring up the context
menu for the current track ("Hold" the cover at the top left on iPad)
and then select "More Info".

This should give you more information about the sample rate used.

This sounds like somewhat is bitrate limiting your output. iPeng can
play 96/24, but to do that it needs the stream to also arrive in this
format.

My first guess would be what d6jg already suggested: did you maybe sync
the iPeng player with your Squeezebox? The SB3 can only play 48/24 so
the stream would by transcoded to that format by the server. To play in
sync, the stream on both devices needs to be the same.

Anothe possible reason could be that you have enabled transcoding for
iPeng (bitrate limiting). This is off by default for WiFi connections
but on for cellular connections. Please check through the "i" behind
"Enable Playback" in "Settings->iPeng Settings". There's a menu item
"Bitrate Limiting".

Version 7.7.6 should not have an impact, I believe.

Yes, as d6jg said, this works fine.
For bandwidth reasons iPeng currently only supports 24/96 maximum
resolutions, but higher sample rates should be downsampled by the
server.

Looks like an issue with the artwork cache or you are using some image
format iOS doesn’t support. Or you have specifically set no image for
that track.
The image for the NowPlaying screen is an unscaled track image, the
Playlist uses the album image first and then updates for the track image
when (and if) that comes in later.
Could you try to clear the artwork cache (or delete artwork.db on Linux
setups)?

In iPeng you can customize the whole main menu and move it to Radios
through that.
On iPhone, use the „Edit“-Button in the „More...“ menu, on iPad you can
reveal it by pulling down the main menu.
You can then re-order using drag

1. might actually be complicated. There's currently a bug in the App
Store that prevents purchasing of old App versions. If you purchase it
on a newer device with the same App Store account, then downloading it
on the old iPad works but you can't buy it there.

3. "Reliably" is always difficult in a Squeezebox setup.
iPeng will remember what server AND player it used the last time and try
to reconnect to that. So usually this should work.
But there are edge cases. The player only starts up when the App is
started and then tries to connect to the server. If your server is e.g.
sleeping and takes a while to respond, this could run into a timeout
where iPeng decides to switch to another, available player. I think the
timeout is 30s or so.
In my setup it works like 99% of the time but it's hard to guarantee,
the best way to make sure it works is to make sure the server is
responsive and available when you start iPeng.

OK... that's a bit of a complex thing... This menu is a server-created
one and can have completely different parameters from the ones iPeng
uses, probably also depending on your server settings. I'll have to look
into what goes wrong there but it's definitely a more complicated case
than the normal opening of the "albums by artist" menu.

Puh, I also have to try to reproduce that one. I don't have any artist
with more than 100 albums so will somehow have to mimick this.
Is this "Artists" or "Albumartists" again?

Did you maybe set the volume to 100% fixed for these players? It's a

No. First: Apple just announced that they are delaying that deprecation
until further notice.
Second: for things like the Wiki Lookup there are proper replacement
APIs.
What no longer works is capturing the playback of a playable link so
that you can send it to a Squeezebox instead of playing it locally on
the iThingy.

That’s a. It of a complex quirk only happening if - among other things -
the system volume on your iPhone is set to 0.
Just change the volume (outside iPeng), start iPeng again and it should
be gone.
In most cases you can then set the volume back to 0 if you like.

Ok, regarding quotes, I‘m going to have a fix for that in the next
update.
It’s indeed related to quotes not being correctly encoded in the JSON

What updates do you specifically expect?
There probably will be a privacy option for the clipboard thing -
although technically that has been communicated for years (at least on
the blog).

And then towards the end of the year I have to remove the web browser,
Apple requires that.

I was considering home screen widgets, but they are really hard to make
useful and since they require Swift they would at least double the
executable size of iPeng, I‘m not sure that‘s worth it for something
essentially just being a big icon for an individual player.
You can’t display anything useful on them because they are completely
passive.

Might wait with them for the full Swift rewrite I’m working on.
Unfortunately, SwiftUI is still pretty limited for more complex UI
stuff.

Hm, didn’t find the source is there some documentation as to what

But what confuses me a bit... when iPeng finds local lyrics it should
not even request them from MAI

iPeng can't easily change the order because of it's caching strategy.
However, it can permanently cache BOTH versions.
The "Albums by Album name" menu is under "Albums" and the "Album by
Artist name" can be found under "Artists->All Albums". Both are equally
fast and fully cached.

That's the "New Music" menu, in both iPeng and also in the LMS web
interface.

I'll see what I can do with the redesign.
Right now the problem is that there are probably a dozen different
things some people want to see on the NowPlaying screen, line the
details you mention, Genre, Path name, year.
OTOH I know many others think that the NowPlaying screen is too
cluttered already now.
Making things configurable just makes the whole App more complicated for
everyone.

There's no perfect solution here...

Yes, it’s as slartibartfast wrote. This is not an iPeng menu but a
plug-in menu, it refers to the server settings, not iPeng‘s.
The wording is a bit unfortunate, I think the plugin author didn’t
consider that this menu is not just being shown in the web interface.

The TIDAL menu is provided by the server and configuring it is a
per-player-setting. You can configure this on the MySqueezebox.com web
site.

One thing that often can cause issues is if SqueezeLite for some reason
has a wrong MAC address set.

Anyway this is not an iPeng issue, I think the best question to ask
is in the MySqueezebox.com subforum.

No icon at all sounds broken. What player ID does SqueezeAMP have?

The new icons are fro the AirPlay and ChromeCast bridges. They no longer

No, currently the NowPlaying screen is not configurable. This mimicks

Please try to restart your server, this happens occasionally and it's a
server issue. The reason it comes back the wrong way after a restart is
that this is the information the server sends...

iPeng is an App for iPhone/iPad to control your Squeezebox.
It does have some limited capability of playing Bandcamp links through a
web browser which precedes the Bandcamp plugin, the browser
functionality will have to be disabled later this year (although there
should be a replacement).

Today you want to use the plugin to play Bandcamp. Of course you still
can use iPeng if you are looking for an iPhone or iPad App, but don't do
it for Bandcamp alone.

I think the TIDAL and Qobuz plugins don't support fast forward, but to
be sure you'll probably have to ask in the Qobuz plugin thread and the
MySqueezebox.com section (for Tidal). This has nothing to do with iPeng.

Hi, welcome and congratulations to the first post :)

Which LMS version do you use and what kind of virtual libraries (we are
talking about virtual libraries, don't we?) do you use?

This right now really confuses me because I've used and tested this very
feature more than ever before during the last few weeks since Michael
has introduced that "Audiobooks" feature in LMS 8 because I've done some
testing and optimization of my personal setup WRT this and before you
asked I never ran into this and I didn't hear about it from anybody
else.

I _think_ I can reproduce what you are talking about but I'm not sure,
it looks like it's some use case I never tried before...

What I'm seeing is that if I start iPeng with a certain library
restriction, that restriction is not released for submenu albums list
(so e.g. albums for a certain artist or tracks for an album) when I
change the library view to something less restrictive. And this _only_
seems to apply to menus that are placed directly on a tab (at the bottom
of the screen) in iPeng on iPhone.
Is this also what you see?

If yes, I'll try to get a fix, until then it might be a workaround to
place those menus where it affects you further down the hierarchy in the
menu so that you access them through "More.." instead of directly from a
tab. I know it's a bit inconvenient, though...

Or it’s a transcoding issue. BBC iPlayer streams are transcoded by the

I don't have the faintest idea how this could happen. I mean... it's not
like iPeng control the stream or something.

The only things I could see are:
* You have iPeng Playback enabled and iPeng's player is synced with your
pCP and somehow stops when it's started, but I assume you have already
seen this.
* You have some sort of IP conflict on your network, e.g. the iPad uses
the same IP address as your player or server. Did you try to reboot your
router?
* Your server doesn't have enough power to keep the connection to the
player when iPeng connects and loads the menu tree. This could
especially happen with some plugins that stall the server for a longer
time when their menu is being built, like TrackStat (with big menus) or
so.

Well, the FLAC section has the conversion to MP3 set to "Disabled",

This looks like you've set up your system to always convert to PCM, this

Yes, in iPeng, if you have a look at the context menu for the currently
playing track (while it plays), "More Info..." will gibe you the current
format and bitrate.

There are a few caveats:
If you use a hotspot to another device (e.g. phone), iPeng doesn't know
you are on cellular.
The same is true for some VPNs.
In this case you also need to set the "Wifi" bitrate limit in iPeng.

Yes, the server also needs to be configured to support transcoding to
mp3. You probably need to install lame which doesn't come with LMS.
You can find Details under "Settings->Player->Audio" in the LMS web
interface.

@Michael, if you are reading this: the MP3 patents have now expired for
a few years, wouldn't it make sense to ship lame with LMS?

That would be the same thing as using the context menu in iPeng, an

Let's discuss this somewhere else also with the author of the Material
Skin which seems to use similar lookups as iPeng.
I think I would support the notion that a straight API beyond the menu
system would make a lot of sense.
That said... I was already considering to use the menus for Artists in
my iPeng redesign because for Artists the changes are relatively small
and I can get most of what I need, then I would only have to provide
custom menus for albums, tracks and playlists but right now that would
probably mean a lot of work and it would probably mean I have to drop
artist image support for LMS 7.7.x or use a different menu in 7.x and
8... I'll see.

For now I'd like to get this menu working for Spotify as well. Did you
change the integration? I see Spotty has an "Merge Libraries" option
which is enabled for me and it doesn't show in the "Online Music
Library" plugin settings

Thinking about it: this is really confusing. The Browse On Menü for
Spotify is in the context menu. For TIDAL it‘s in the artist‘s menu, the
latter only works through the menu, not if you use the CLI, I think this
needs a bit of thought in LMS 8 first

Ah, that’s difficult 
It’s only available through the server-side menu which iPeng doesn’t use
because it doesn’t contain other data iPeng needs.
I’ll have to see what I can do about it.
Why is it only available for TIDAL and not for Spotify, BTW?

That’s a server-provided menu, iPeng can’t influence it.
Maybe if I ever write a completely new alarm menu again (very old iPeng
versions had that) but I believe the problem was that some functionality
isn’t exposed through the CLI so the capabilities would actually be
worse. At least that was ho it was back then.

If you move it to the top level (where the plugin icon is being shown)
it no longer works because the entry field can't be shown.

Yes, there are some items that don't, typically ones that don't make a

separate menu items when I did most of the icons.
There are also plenty of plugins for which I don't have icons.

Wifi ist typically not really the problem, even if it's bad.
I'm seeing cutouts with my Squeezeboxes because of the server not
delivering a stable stream, especially when transcoding is involved.
It's probably due to some plugins I use not really being implemented in
a clean way but LMS is single-threaded and whenever a plugin or
something does a synchronous request that takes a lot of time the small
buffer can timeout pretty soon.
Very rarely have that issue with iPeng with it's bigger buffer, probably
because the buffer lasts longer than a typical http timeout...

LMS has issues if the player‘s buffer is longer than the current track
and iPeng uses a much bigger buffer than Squeezeboxes to make remote
playback more stable.
If you see this a lot, there’s an option in the player‘s settings (and
in iPeng settings in the playback settings) to use a small buffer.

Never use player settings from the main menu. You need to always use
player setting from the player list.
The player settings on the main menu don't work if you have synced
players, then they always refer to the group master (like all menu items
on the main menu).
They also lack items.

I was already looking into completely hiding that menu on the main menu
tree but didn't because it's still useful for those 50% of the users
having only a single player.

Exactly this.

Most of the menu in iPeng is server-provided.
Think of iPeng's main menu a bit like a web site in a browser.

On a Squeezebox (like Touch or Radio), the whole menu gets retrieved
from the server, in iPeng it's still everything except for the main
library menus (Albums, Artists, Playlists, Genres, My Apps, Radios, Help
and Extras). All other menus can theoretically change all the time.

iPeng remembers the menus as long as it's running, but if it gets killed
in the background (this is done by iOS when it needs the memory for
other activities or apps) it restarts and re-loads the menu.
iPeng remembers the whole order of items you have set, but it will
always just show the menu items it knows about. This is important if you
e.g. switch between MySqueezebox.com and LMS which have pretty different
top level menus.

So if you added other items to the tab bar, these can only show up after
they are loaded from the server.

How long this takes depends a lot on your server's wakeup behavior. The
server needs to wake up, iPeng needs to connect and then the server has
to send the whole menu structure. Depending on how long it takes to
power up the server this can take a while and if the server doesn't
respond within 30s iPeng also throttles the retry interval to not drain
your iPhone battery too much whenever the server can't be found at all.

I'm thinking about a different caching behavior for the iPeng redesign
but until then keeping the server running is the only way to shorten
this.

The functionality is not yet there, that’s why I said you have to ask in

Currently the font size is fixed, iPeng 9 was developed long before
dynamic type was a thing and changing all that is a huge amount of work.
I prefer to invest a little extra and re-do the whole App instead :)

iPeng has it's own logic for that which predates DTTP, it's through the

Again, iPeng doesn’t report that. iPeng doesn’t have any message like
that nor does it know anything about the TIDAL status or how the server
is connected to MySB.

That’s all information sent by the server.
The web interface does a lot of things differently, I think it doesn’t
even have a messaging facility, that’s probably why it doesn’t show
anything, iPeng shows the messages like they would be shown on a
Squeezebox Touch or Radio.

You’ll have to ask in the MySqueezebox.com section, this is not a
message iPeng created but it’s coming from the server

You mean that you e.g. see your Qobuz favorites in your "Albums" menu?
That's currently not possible with the Qobuz implementation the
Squeezebox uses.

There might be something up iPeng's sleeve with the redesign we're
working on but don't hold your breath, it will take a while to complete
since this is a lot of work.

You will either have added it manually in iPeng settings - then you need
to delete it there, or you have enabled WOL, then you need to disable
WOL in the settings for that server.
If there is no MAC it’s probably the manually configured server

I still don't think this is going to work without a jailbreak. But you
can try.

1.6.1 is the last original release that supports iOS 4 but most later
versions also bundle that very version in the same IPA (you could build
fat binaries that contain completely different versions of apps to one
binary).
The very first 2.0-versions are an exception (because I didn't know this
then) and last one (2.0.17) is the other exception because at that time
Apple had removed the capability to test these builds and I didn't want
to take a risk with what was the last possible build of iPeng Classic on
the App Store (long before removing the App itself Apple removed the
possibility to update iOS-6-and-before-only Apps).

So my recommendation would be 2.0.16 or 1.6.1, most builds in between
are similar.

Good to hear you got it fixed!

Sigh... yes, that's what they always do.
Even though technically the comment is not correct. The App is actually
still in the App Store, it's just removed from sale by Apple because
it's not compatible with current devices.
I've had a ton of discussions with Apple people on this and in the end
it doesn't help. They are having a lot of bogus arguments but I think
they want people to abandon old OS versions and devices to reduce their
support load.
The official argument is that it clutters App Store listings which is
simply not true because
a) App Store listings are filtered for incompatible versions so on a new
device you'd never see old Apps and
b) technically they are still in their library so they don't save
anything on the backend side of things either.

Apple at least claims that the ipa's are signed per AppleID but I'm not
sure to which extent that's true.
People used to jailbreak their devices to install ipa's themselves, and
I think those are typically cracked, so there must be some sort of copy
protection.

Ok, i checked my iPhone with that iOS version.
Here the App Store does indeed doesn’t seem to have a purchased apps
list.

Let’s see what Apple answers...

Which iOS version is this? This somehow differs between versions but
most old iOS versions have either a „purchases“ tab under „Updates“ or a
first item „purchases“ (again, under updates.

I can no longer get my iOS 3 devices to connect to the App Store but
they do throw an error and my iOS 6 iPod won’t boot right now, so I
can’t really try myself
