Re: [slim] Multiple libaries?
Hmmm.
Following your instructions to the letter (number of times) a search for
D:\Music or D:\Pauls Music finds nothing ('0 results' instantly..
although I did wait for a long time just in case this changed). I
checked out other searches and they all worked fine (and very fast
too).
I'm a bit stumped. There is nothing odd about my D drive. It is a
physical drive and it's a true

Re: [slim] lost apps
Another vote for pi and PiCorePlayer setup. :) My pi4 uses about 3.0w of power (measured using Emporia Smart Plug) while doing stuff (1.55w while idle). It's actually overkill for LMS. For that I use my pi3+, with a directly attached 256GB ssd (and a 16g microSD). CPU is basically idle when streaming flac directly to my multiple squeezeboxes. When transcoding hi-res to CD 16/44.1 wav (for my original squeezebox sb1), cpu is just around 30%. Best of all, it's completely silent, and rock solid. I leave it on 24x7 because its energy usage is like noise compare to the rest of the house. my windows i7 on the other hand uses about 160w at idle. 200+w when I am doing stuff. Despite buying "quiet" components, it's not silent. I was running LMS on my windows box couple of years ago. I swear when I switched to PCP, LMS GUI response felt snappier. wildgoose's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23501 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114361 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] lost apps
Going back to 7.7 will also bring you the problems that 7.8, 7.9, 8.0, 8.1 and presumably soon 8.2 have solved. Some https source will not work properly and some integrations with 3rd-party services will not work or not be available. Trying to resolve the problem that you had with the installer should also help others who may well hit the same issue in the future.

Re: [slim] lost apps
And just to finish off this thread... I ended up installing LMS on an old Win 10 box I have. The Linux box was my first choice - see above - but my son may be reclaiming that machine. The Win 10 box is plenty powerful; an i7 with 16 gigs of ram - it feels a little silly to be devoting it to running LMS, so I may at some point do something that is more proportional to the task at hand, a new Pi4 as some have suggested, or a less capable, salvaged desktop/laptop. One oddity; I tried but could not get 8.1.1 to install. The installer complained about compatibility problems, so I dropped back to 7.7. Anyway, problem worked around.

At one time you could get the hub and the smart remote for under $60.0. And even that basic model had lots of undocumented features like voice control on Android tv or fire tv. Google never got this fully working last time I checked but the hub could do it with programming on your part. It could do automations like turning the tv on when you walk in the back door after a certain time, etc. Harmony never advertised this because this was for techies not your average consumer. The setup software was a pain and it would say it can't do that when it could- you just had to know how to "lie" back at it. Once I learned the tricks , I realized Harmony was much better than what was advertised. Logitech has some really nice technology, it's just they don't know how to get the word out. fletch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71552 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114352 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

The problem is the two version have a common root and LMS in some circumstances searches for files (e.g. executables) in ALL subdirectories so for example I think (depending on the root) all conf file in both installation could be scanned and merged with confusing results.

[slim] Multiple libaries?
Hi. I have a desire to run two separate libraries and switch between them. Is there a simple way to achieve that without running two instances of LMS? I am aware that Erland designed a (paid?) multi-library plugin but I'm not too sure if it still exists/works or even if it is/was appropriate Thanks again Take care of your tongue. It is in a wet place and can easily slip.

Re: [slim] New bitmap fonts for Transporter and SB2/SB3
Looks really good. I will try the fonts when I am back to my Transporter next week.

[slim] New bitmap fonts for Transporter and SB2/SB3
Hi everyone, Within the last days I've compiled two new pixmap-fonts for the VFD as present in Squeezebox classic, SB2 and Transporter, which I want to share here. Over time I wasn't any longer satisfied with the current look and decided that my squeezeboxes are in the need for a fresh look. The first font is a two-lines one, the second a full-sized one. The font "Neep" is based on the pixmap font jmk-Neep (available under GLP, see https://github.com/nikolas/jmk-x11-fonts, whereas I've used the bitmaps from the rockbox.org project, sizes 06x11 and 12x24). The original fonts are monospaced with a dotted zero; however I've only used monospacing for the numbers. A second variant, Neep0, provides an open '0', which could look more pleasant for the clock. 34230 The second font, DINo, is based on a keymap written in the Win10 font Bahnschrift, which itself is derived from the DIN 1451 font (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DIN_1451). The DIN font is at least very common in Germay and used for traffic signs, looks very neutral and balanced, is quite easy to read from a distance. For this font, I've created the bitmap keymap within The GIMP (font size 34px, with medium hinting and no anti-aliasing). Afterwards, look, position and size of the characters had to be edited / adjusted for a more clean and polished look. 34229 The attached ZIP file contains these bitmap font files, which just have to be copied to logitech media server, into the "Graphics" folder (the BMP-files, not the ZIP, to e.g. /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Graphics/ in case of the debian packages) and LMS requires a restart. The fonts should then be selectable in LMS via the device settings for SB2/SB3/transporter. Please be aware that the files have to stay in the propper file format (1-bit Win3.1 BMP format), otherwise LMS won't start properly (will no more find any players as long as the non-functional files are present in Graphics folder). I hope you like the fonts as well.

Re: [slim] Tidal-LMS
Don't think I have. used to experiment with some tunnels for squeezebox Alexa support on this forum (Media server or something) but anything else, I'm not sure. tushma's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69299 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114277 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
