Re: [slim] Amazon Echo / Alexa integration how-to with IFTTT

2016-12-22 Thread Bixby

Thanks Michael.

I misunderstood about the P2 parameter.

I just got it working playing a web stream, which is great and the top
priority. So I'll keep playing with that info!

Does a playlist have a useable/passable URL, and if so how do I get
that? I know how to access Chrome Developer tools etc., but don't have
much knowledge past that.

Thanks again!

Re: [slim] Amazon Echo / Alexa integration how-to with IFTTT

2016-12-21 Thread Bixby

Thanks for this info and thread. I just picked up a Dot and was hoping
to use it to do some simple commands.

I'm able to get it to (resume) play, and stop play. But the commands
I've made for playing specific playlists seems to make Squeezebox Server
stop running, so I'm guessing there's something about the command that's
problematic.

Here's the command I was using that causes the problem:

Any ideas or suggestions?

[slim] Need help troubleshooting alarm

2011-03-28 Thread Bixby

I've got a Squeezebox Radio that won't consistently play the playlists I
ask it play as an alarm, and it instead reverts to the backup alarm.
Network signal strength is 90% or greater.

I also have a Classic that is mostly rock-solid regarding alarms.

Any ideas how I can track down the cause? I've never messed with
logging etc., but am open to ideas.

Thanks-

[slim] Synchornization questions

2011-02-06 Thread Bixby

I have a Squeezebox Classic, Boom and Radio.

I would like to add a top level menu item to control synchronization.
How can I do this?

Also, is there a way to automatically sync or unsync at certain times?
For instance, I'd like the Radio to turn on by itself at a certain
time. Then some time after it turns on, I'd like the Classic and Boom
to automatically turn on (via alarm I assume) and be in sync with the
Radio. How can I do this?

Thanks!

Re: [slim] Custom Menu items

2010-05-26 Thread Bixby

This would be to the top level of my Classic and Boom.

I'm well aware of the menu editing in the settings, but I sure don't
see a way to add the Synchronize command that's under the Settings menu
directly to the top level of the Classic or Boom interface. So I
currently have to go to Settings and then scroll down to Synchronize.
Whereas I'd like the Synchronize option right along with my other
top-level items.

Thanks again!

[slim] Custom Menu items

2010-05-25 Thread Bixby

I've done a little searching on this forum, but want to confirm what
I've found:

I'm looking for a way to add custom menu items to the top-level menu.
For instance, I'd love to be able to quickly unsync my Boom and
Classic. I've played with the couple sync-related plugins, but they
seem to do more than what I'm seeking.

So for now the solution is to go to the settings menu and then sync.
But I'd love to be able to add sync as a top-level menu. It seems
there's no way to do this (without custom programming etc.)?

Thanks-

Re: [slim] How to make alarm timeout greather than 90 minutes?

2009-09-15 Thread Bixby

Thanks, I'll try it tonight.

While the slider is pretty, it might be nice to just keep it easy and
have just an input box.

Or keep the slider as well, but let the input box override the slider -
so if the slider only goes to 90 and then I type in 120, it stays with
120. As it is, there is no indication that 120 is an invalid entry, it
just doesn't work after I hit apply.

[slim] How to make alarm timeout greather than 90 minutes?

2009-09-12 Thread Bixby

I'd like to have an alarm timeout of 120 minutes. It seems to be limited
to 90 minutes, no matter if I use the slider or type an amount in, it
never takes after I hit apply.

I'm running Squeezecenter 7.3.3 and a squeezebox classic off of windows
2000.

Re: [slim] Storing CDs after Ripping

2008-11-02 Thread Bixby

I use and prefer the Uline CD mailing boxes.

http://www.uline.com/BL_1451/CD-Jewel-Case-Mailers-Corrugated

They're sturdy enough to ship 25 or 50 CDs in, so plenty sturdy to
store. And they're just corrugated cardboard, so I can write on them
and label the contents (I give all ripped CDs a number in the comments
field). I prefer the 25-CD boxes, and they're easily handled and are
small enough to be very flexible on how you store them. Only downside
is you have to buy them in bulk, but considering the size of most
people's collection on this forum, that's likely not a problem, as
you'll probably be using them!

Re: [slim] SqueezeCenter and real media streams in favorites

2008-03-19 Thread Bixby

I changed the '?' to 'audio/x-pn-realaudio', as suggested. Restarted
Squeezecenter.

Still nothing.

When I use the .ram link, I get invalid xml feed error.

When I use the .rm link I get a cannot request non-http URL error.

Is this a bug or a feature? Of Alien BBC or Squeezecenter?

This worked fine in 6.5.4 with My Picks plugin. And I can listen via
the 'tune in URL'. Just not via a Favorite. Frustrating.

Thanks.

[slim] SqueezeCenter and real media streams (via Alien BBC)

2008-03-18 Thread Bixby

In the old version of SlimServer, I used the My Picks plugin to organize
favorites, since that allowed renaming them, etc. This functionality
seems included in SqueezeCenter. However, now I can't access real media
streams - SqueezeCenter doesn't recognize them as valid playable items.
How do I make this happen? I know Alien BBC works fine, because I can
get the stream to play via 'tune in URL'.

I DON'T want to have to put it in a playlist, thus separating it from
my other favorites.

Thanks.

[slim] Library size differs between slimserver and iTunes (using exact same music folder)

2007-07-25 Thread Bixby

I have a library that I created completely with iTunes (ripping). When I
have slimserver scan that music folder, the number of songs it comes up
with are different than what iTunes reports - by 18. Anyone know what
causes this? I'm inclined to think the iTunes number is correct, as I'm
also having troubles (which I'm working on with support) using the use
iTunes function of the slimserver.

I even created a new iTunes library and imported all the music from
that folder into it - and after doing that both iTunes and slimserver
(after scanning that same folder) reported a different number (by about
20 songs).

Thanks!

I have checked that in iTunes. Nothing is doubled. I do have some
duplicate songs, but they're from different albums (say the original
and a compilation). Of course I'd like to keep those, so they correctly
stay associated with both albums.
