I tried this, and indeed could find my players on the iphone.  When I
selected one and streamed music to them, the album art appeared on the
controller screen, but no music played.  Upon closer inspection, I found
a message on the controller that the connection timed out.  I also have
some Logitech Internet Radios, and tried streaming to them, and the same
thing happened.

Any ideas?

Re: [slim] Latest Plex updates Music features

2016-12-01 Thread ctbarker32

I would like to agree with the OP. The LMS web interface is usable but
hopelessly outdated. I use Plex and LMS. I have been using LMS for more
than 10 years and have three servers running both for safety and
redundancy. 

I recently tried to get a fellow audiophile to use LMS and Picoreplayer
and he was very turned off by the outdated LMS interface and perceived
complexity in setting up LMS. I mentioned Ipeng, etc. but he was already
fed up. He much prefers the MPD based players using RPi and really likes
RUNE Audio (not Roon) which is by default able to connect directly to
his SMB (Samba) based NAS share. So with RUNE Audio he downloads the
image and burns to a microSD and plugs it into his RPi and he points it
towards his SMB NAS share and he is done. LMS can't compete with this
scenario! He says it can scan 1 tb of music in 5 minutes which if true
is much faster than LMS. It take LMS close to an hour to scan my 2.5 tb
music collection.

I am very active using Picoreplayer project as well as my existing Touch
and SB3 players but I am very concerned for the fate of LMS if no way
can be found to bring it's technology and interface up to modern
standards?

Judging from the screen, extGUI4LMS has a very similar filter function.
extGUI4LMS is, however, definitely not designed to be fun...

Re: [slim] Latest Plex updates Music features

2016-12-01 Thread Apesbrain

I love Plex as well.  It is to me for video what LMS is for music.  I
wish they'd work on improving the audio aspect of video playback,
however.  How hard would it be to implement some sort of "pre-amp"
function using ReplayGain?  It gets tiresome having to turn my volume
level up to double or more of where it's normally set for TV listening. 
Inevitably, I forget to turn it back down or stop the video playback for
a bathroom break only to be blasted out of my seat by the TV coming
through!

Just trying to seduce someone with the skills to make a plugin that
makes LMS a bridge between PMS and Squeezeboxes. Not adding new stuff to
LMS.

Like the Airtunes plugin.

Well, I think it's more "fun" to click around in Plex than in LMS.
