Re: [slim] What did I do to get all my local FM radio station in favorites?

2011-01-24 Thread bpa

 What I dont understand is why half of all the local FM channels display
 Artist, Song Title, Favorite name correctly; while the rest of the FM
 channels do not

Are there any differences/similarities between channels that work and
those that don't such as service provider (e.g. streamtheworld,
liquidcompass, iheart) or format (e.g. WMA, AAC, MP3) ?

Logs will help as it will indicate what metadata is being received.

I'm a bit confused about where you see the differences - since you only
have software players - does this issue show up between two software
players - if so which ones ?

Thats how it's finding metadat for the database everything is presented

It also check out that the links in the playlist actually goes to a

A more unexpected feature is that it follows links in playlists even if
they go outside of the specified music library and ad those files to

 check your AV to see if you can exclude *.myi and *.myd files.
I'm sure I can and will try later, it's easy enough to disable while
scanning. 
The odd thing is, since my last post I scanned one album that was
showing double instances and it was fine. 
I then scanned all the flac files to see if there was a problem with
them and they scanned fine. 
I then scanned all the mp3's and they scanned fine. 
So I tried the whole library again and belive it or not they scanned
fine?? Also I had forgotten to disable my AV so it was running the
whole time??
The only other change I made was to point SBS playlists to an empty
folder as my playlists were slowing the scans down.
So I pointed SBS back to my playlists and bingo the problem
re-appeared.
I know some if not all of my playlists are out of date as my files have
moved so I am running without them at the moment. I will try rebuilding
them and add them one at a time to SBS to see if that makes a
difference.
Question: Is there a limit to the number of tracks you can have in a
playlist? some of mine are quite large.
Anyone any experience of playlists causing this kind of issue?

I export mine from Winamp (which is pointing to the same music libraray

Should I move them under the Home Library Directory?

2011-01-24 Thread ThomP


A poll associated with this post was created, to vote and see the
results, please visit http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83106

Question: What's your highest priority

- More images of your music collection
- More Screensafers
- Better player syncing
- Mysqueezebox.com - Player Switching
- Better Search
- Drag'n'Drop for the playlist
- TrackStat Ratings
- IRBlaster integration
- Big Screen with Album Covers for selection
- Something else


Another vote for better sync'ing!

My request is to have different setups defined and being able to choose
between them by pressing a single button - preferably on the main
screen.

I have players in the kitchen, living room and bathroom + a controller.
For those players I would create at least these setups for different
scenarios:

1) Normal; All players synced. Controller separate.

2) Bath; Kitchen and living room synced, bathroom separate, Controller
separate.

3) Alternative; All players and controller synced (I know that the
controller doesn't sync well, but it's ok for listening to the same
music in the garage).

The setups should not just be groups but complete definitions of all
players - in other words it should be possible to define several groups
in one setup.
Switching control between groups in a setup should just be like
switching between players.

P.S.: I won't get my iPad until march, but I know from using iPeng for
iPod and Squeeze Commander for Android that sync handling can be
improved compared to both of these apps:-)

I think this will be too complicated.
- from the UI that has to configure that
- for the user who has to be asked multiple music sources for each
subgroup in a setup, when it is activated.

As I see this it should be sufficient to have multiple named 'simple'
groups (like the three you described).
When users switch sync settings they typically do that for a particalur
reason (i.e. starting a party, going to the bathroom, going to the
garage ...). 

Rarely I think this involves using multiple non-overlapping sync-groups
at once (and even if: they could be activated with one click more).

Where would you need multiple sync groups in one setup?

From your scenarios I see an interesting use case though: Until now I
only thought about synching a group of players - but not unsyncing.
So I need to think a bit more about how users are supposed to get back
from scenario 3 to 2.

One solution would be to unsync everyone else that is not in the group?

Re: [slim] What did I do to get all my local FM radio station in favorites?

2011-01-24 Thread mkanet

BPA, I really appreciate your time and help.

Just to be clear the problem in the display is not limited to
softsqueeze and other software players.  I can see the same kind of
mess up in SBS's display as well.  Its obvious to me the feed itself
includes metadata thats not specifically formatted for Squeezebox
products.  It looks like they were meant more for the iphone/itunes; as
they mention Iphone Akamai and itunes in feed metadata.

Here's what these radio stations look like in SBS:
[image:
http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h283/mkanet/Screenshot-1384.jpg]

I'm not sure why it would look correctly for someone else's squeezebox
hardware client; but not look correctly in SBS.  However, this doesnt
prove that the Internet radio stations that display correctly don't
come from the same provider/source; all I can see is they display
correctly (both in SBS and softsqueeze.  I can't see any data beyond
Artist name/Song title/Station Name on the ones that display
correctly.

Re: [slim] What did I do to get all my local FM radio station in favorites?

2011-01-24 Thread bpa

I think Radiotime is the culprit. Normally metadata is just displayed
without processing.  The metadata you show seems to be formatted with
id/value pairs expecting it to be processed again.

My suspicion about Radiotime is my experience with BBC. I'm not sure if
this is still the case but if you play the BBC WMA URL taken from BBC -
then no metadata is shown about program info  whereas if the BBC WMA
URL is sourced from Radiotime - program info is displayed.  To test
this case where there is a difference in display for the same station,
the initiating URL being played needs to be known and the format of the
stream that ultimately plays.

I definitely agree, we need to remember that a few people might have a
lot of players but most people interested in the synchronization
functionality are only going to have 2 or 3 players.

To me, the sync groups is more about having a logical name for a group
and easily being able to start playing music in a specific group
without the need to mess around with sync settings in all the players
not in the group.

Another issue is that I'm going to want to be able to handle this on
multiple remote controls. When I'm in the living room I'm going to have
the iPad but when I move to another room I might only have access to the
iPhone in my pocket. Due to this, I have a feeling a server side plugin
would be a better solution than an implementation directly in an
iPad/iPhone app, at least as long as the sync group definitions are
stored locally in the app.

The obvious disadvantage with using a server side plugin is that it's
not going to work with MySB.com.

- Better Search
- Drag'n'Drop for the playlist
- TrackStat Ratings
- IRBlaster integration
- Big Screen with Album Covers for selection

 I think this will be too complicated.
 - from the UI that has to configure that
 - for the user who has to be asked multiple music sources for each
 subgroup in a setup, when it is activated.
 

The way I see it the first point doesn't have to be too complicated -
it is basically a two-level grouping: When you define a scenario, you
create and assign one or more groups to the scenario and assign each
player to exactly one group.

I didn't really consider the second point - possibly because I rarely
sync players during playback, but I can see how this could cause
problems:-)

You might also be right that it is overkill - and I don't have the use
case for it at the moment either. The main reasons for the idea was:

1) It seemed logical that the app should always know and control the
state of all players.

2) Sometimes players are logically connected and should never be
unsynced (i.e. our living room and kitchen are not separated by
walls so playing different music on those would be quite confusing so
they are either both playing the same or one of them is switched off).
If you have more players like this it would make sense to be able to
keep them synced even when you change group setup.

 
 When users switch sync settings they typically do that for a particalur
 reason (i.e. starting a party, going to the bathroom, going to the
 garage ...). 
 

I only change sync settings if my wife wants to listen to something in
the shower and I want to listen to something different in the living
room or vice versa:) the rest I control by switching players on or off
- but that may be because sync control from the players is so lousy:)

 
 Rarely I think this involves using multiple non-overlapping sync-groups
 at once (and even if: they could be activated with one click more).
 

Probably true!

 
 From your scenarios I see an interesting use case though: Until now I
 only thought about synching a group of players - but not unsyncing.
 So I need to think a bit more about how users are supposed to get back
 from scenario 3 to 2.
 

By making sure you don't just activate a group but a complete scenario
that covers the sync state of all players;)

 
 One solution would be to unsync everyone else that is not in the group?

That would probably satisfy my needs.

I haven't really thought about what should happen to the playlist when
a group is unsynced (partially or completely) - going from my scenario
1 to 2 or 3 to 2. In my case I would probably prefer that the old
group playlist was transferred to all players involved, because
sometimes the playlist belongs to the bathroom, and sometimes to the
rest of the house.

BTW: Again, based on my use, no matter how groups are defined and
synced, it is important that syncing or unsyncing doesn't change the
on/off state of players!

 Another issue is that I'm going to want to be able to handle this on
 multiple remote controls. When I'm in the living room I'm going to have
 the iPad but when I move to another room I might only have access to the
 iPhone in my pocket. Due to this, I have a feeling a server side plugin
 would be a better solution than an implementation directly in an
 iPad/iPhone app, at least as long as the sync group definitions are
 stored locally in the app.

Maybe Squeezepad should just have a user friendly interface to control
groups defined in another plugin - The Synchronizer?
I suppose it makes sense to use existing functionality whenever
possible. The disadvantage is dependency...

Re: [slim] playlists empty on move to new pc

2011-01-24 Thread tom.jelly

interesting, didn't know it had that capability but it makes sense after
looking at the file in notepad.  Now I think  I just have to figure out
how to get itunes and SBS to see the album artwork file, although I
moved it over I can't even remember if it is an itunes or SBS file,
I'll have to take a look at the old PC again before it gets
repurposed...but if I remember correctly one of these programs will go
on line to get it again anyway...
thanks again

The universal way to disable the popup is to accept the update. But if
you don't want to do that, deferring the update depends on which

[slim] Anyone thought about AIRPLAY support in Squeezebox Server?

2011-01-24 Thread robotron2

It would be great  if I could stream audio from my iPod Touch or iPad to
the Squeezebox Server via Airplay.

Is Apple making it possible for third parties to build Airplay
reception into their devices?

Has anyone pondered this...it could make a very cool plugin.

On the Radio, press the back (left arrow) button and hold it for about 2
seconds until it backs out. But the popup will come back. On the SB3 I'm
not sure -- is it prompting you to press the Brightness button?
