I just had a play with this and I can see that Material is using ["favorites","playlist","play","menu:favorites","item_id:eb5e0bb8.8","isContextMenu:1"]] to play the favorite (which is what I used to do). I guess this method invokes the plugin whereas a direct URL play (which I now do) like ["playlist","play","https://www.radio.net/s/1fmreggaetrade";]] is skipping it? If -all -stations that should play via the "menu:favorites" route have radio.net in their URL then I can easily check on that and make sure to use that method to play them. Is that the case? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ philchillbill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=68920 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111951 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
