Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] iPeng 1.2 for iPhone now on the AppStore
I just pre-ordered an iPad this morning. Clearly, it (and other slate devices) could be a game-changer in that you can easily use the SqueezeCenter web interface in its full glory, something that was obviously not possible on smaller devices. Hence, the need for applications like iPeng on the iPhone. Android has several apps, too. In light of this new class of devices, will we see an iPeng specifically for the iPad? Perhaps, with the larger format, there are a whole new host of applications that would make sense.

Ok, I agree this has long been overdue :) iPeng 1.2.1 has been out for a while now but the User's manual was not completely up to speed with this release. Now, this has changed. I'm happy to announce that the User's Manual is now fully up to date with regards to iPeng 1.2.1. While completing the 1.2.1 version, we added some more detail and hopefully the readability has improved as well. Also, the new User's Manual is now available for download in PDF format. Like before, it's designed as an online manual, supports readability on iPhone/iPod touch through an iPhone skin and can be reached using the links in the App under Help. You can find the User's manual at help.penguinlovesmusic.de Even if you are an experienced iPeng user, have a look and see whether you'll discover some features you didn't know about, yet.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] iPeng 1.2 for iPhone now on the AppStore
Today, iPeng 1.2.1 got released on the App Store. iPeng 1.2.1 is a maintenance release which primarily improves the compatibility with Squeezebox Server 7.4 and fixes some errors but it does come with a few improvements as well. Improvements include: * Better handling of context menus in SBS 7.4, especially including the Add to favorites and Remove from favorites menus available on the Squeezebox Controller to streaming service context menus. * Better detection of #8222;hold#8220; gesture avoids accidental triggering of actions; * iPeng reconnects to the server by server name; this improves automatic reconnection in DHCP managed networks, you no longer need the Forget Last Server Option * Status icons for Alarms and Sleep plus a lot of additional icons for plugins; * Support for Slide Show Artwork (e.g. in the Flickr app); * Sorting of search results, Albums returned by Search now are sorted as defined in iPeng's settings plus additional information for the albums will be shown; * If Play Single Tracks option is set in settings, the Play Shuffled item in Playlists and Albums will be replaced by Play All since Play All is not redundant in this context.

In generally my CPU load according to the TOP command increases shortly when pulling a lot of data from iPeng (especially if I do a MusicIP Mix), load does however not exceed 80% and it immediately drops back to 5-15%, which is the normal load when just playing music. On the iPhone iPeng is still showing Loading... long time after the peak. It eventually finishes a few seconds later - but it makes it feel slow. But it is MUCH better with 7.4 than it was before.

These three devices were put in sync by using Local 9000 on my iMac. All three devices were 'on'. On iPeng, I went to device list and pushed the edit button top right corner. I then selected 'Master Bedroom', a red circle with checkmark appeared, and then I pushed the 'un-sync' button on the bottom of the screen. (what follows is by memory as I do not wish to cause the sound problem again) Master Bedroom was no longer synced. Living Room and Kitchen were still in sync. I then selected Master Bedroom and then selected Kitchen. I then pushed the 'sync' button on the bottom of the screen and now all three devices were again in sync. Later I turned the Kitchen SqueezeBox off using my Squeeze remote in the kitchen. That caused the sound in the Master bedroom to go off in about 5 minutes but the Master Bedroom was still showing the song that was playing. I then turned the Master Bedroom off using the Squeeze remote. I pushed the Play button on the Squeeze remote and I had sound again. I did the experiment of turning off the Kitchen 3 times and 3 times I lost the sound in theMaster Bedroom. I went to Local 9000 and un-synced everything and then synced the Master Bedroom to the Living Room. Then I synced the Kitchen to the combination 'Master Bedroom, Living Room'. Now when I turn off Kitchen, I do not lose the sound of the Master bedroom. I think the problem was caused by NOT giving me the option to sync my Master Bedroom with the combination 'Living Room, Kitchen' which were already in sync - I had to choose EITHER the Living Room OR the Kitchen because that is what your program offered. This probably interacted badly with the SqueezeCenter software. As I stated before, this is just to let you know of the problem or to give a heads-up to any user with multiple synced devices who mysteriously loses sound. As I leave these three devices always synced, I can always use my computer to change this. I hope this makes sense as I cannot write anymore! Regards OK, now I understand what you did :-) just selecting single players out of a sync group to sync doesn't make a difference, you always sync with the master. Just to be sure: Did you probably use the main (big) power button to turn the power off? That would turn off _all_ devices unless you disable group control in iPeng's settings? Or do you have set a synced power in SqueezeCenter's settings for some of your devices? vagskal;471456 Wrote: Cache flushed, but the behaviour persists. Ok, this looks very, very wrong indeed.

OK...background: Snow Leopard 10.6.1, iPod Touch 3.1.1, iPeng 1.2, SqueezeCenter 7.4 4 Slim Devices - 1 Transporter and 3 SqueezeBox Classics. 3 of these are always in sync and have been for the past 6 months: Master Bedroom SqueezeBox, Living Room Transporter, Kitchen SqueezeBox. These three devices were put in sync by using Local 9000 on my iMac. All three devices were 'on'. On iPeng, I went to device list and pushed the edit button top right corner. I then selected 'Master Bedroom', a red circle with checkmark appeared, and then I pushed the 'un-sync' button on the bottom of the screen. (what follows is by memory as I do not wish to cause the sound problem again) Master Bedroom was no longer synced. Living Room and Kitchen were still in sync. I then selected Master Bedroom and then selected Kitchen. I then pushed the 'sync' button on the bottom of the screen and now all three devices were again in sync. Later I turned the Kitchen SqueezeBox off using my Squeeze remote in the kitchen. That caused the sound in the Master bedroom to go off in about 5 minutes but the Master Bedroom was still showing the song that was playing. I then turned the Master Bedroom off using the Squeeze remote. I pushed the Play button on the Squeeze remote and I had sound again. I did the experiment of turning off the Kitchen 3 times and 3 times I lost the sound in theMaster Bedroom. I went to Local 9000 and un-synced everything and then synced the Master Bedroom to the Living Room. Then I synced the Kitchen to the combination 'Master Bedroom, Living Room'. Now when I turn off Kitchen, I do not lose the sound of the Master bedroom. I think the problem is caused by NOT giving me the option to sync my Master Bedroom with the combination 'Living Room, Kitchen' which are already in sync - I have to choose EITHER the Living Room OR the Kitchen because that is what your program offers. This probably interacts badly with the SqueezeCenter software. As I stated before, this is just to let you know of the problem or to give a heads-up to any user with multiple synced devices who mysteriously loses sound. As I leave these three devices always synced, I can always use my computer to change this. I hope this makes sense as I cannot write anymore!

First off, thank you for a great program! I have encountered a sync error. Background: Snow Leopard 10.6.1, iPod Touch 3.1.1. iPeng 1.2, SqueezeCenter 7.4 4 Slim Devices - 1 Transporter and 3 SqueezeBox Classics. 3 of these are always in sync and have been for the past 6 months: Master Bedroom SqueezeBox, Living Room Transporter, Kitchen SqueezeBox. While experimenting with your program, I took the Master Bedroom off sync. Using your program, I then put the Master Bedroom back in sync by tapping Kitchen. Your program then showed all three units back in sync and there actually were in sync. I then began to notice, for the first time ever, that periodically I would lose the audio from my Master Bedroom. The info of the song would continue to scroll but nothing came out of the analog outputs. I discovered that every time I would turn off the Kitchen (all three still in sync), within a few minutes, the Master bedroom lost its sound. Repeatable. I then went to my Intel iMac in Local 9000 and took the three units off sync. Then using Local 9000 again, I first put the Master Bedroom in sync with the Living Room and then put the Kitchen in sync with the combined Master Bedroom and Kitchen. Problem solved. I no longer lose the sound in the Master Bedroom when I turn off the Kitchen. Thought you would like to know and experiment with this.

I'll check. Yet I don't believe this is an iPeng command. iPeng doesn't really DO the syncing, it just tells SBS to do that, so it also can't really do a lot wrong. This is very straightforwrd, it's sync player a to player b period. I'm seeing quite a few issues with syncing on SBS 7.4, too. Which kinds of players do you use?

Just did some testing. Can see that while my iPeng is loading, load on server is pretty low (approx. 83% idle, 1.33 GHz G4). Generally, I'm not aware that anything has changed on the artists/genres query code so I'm surprised that it behaves different. Genres have always been slow.It's not - it was the same problem with the previous version. What I do: Genres - All Albums...and the result in 1.2 is literally *ALL Albums*. Not good, because what I ultimately wish to do is to shuffle all songs to listen to random stuff from a specific genre. The good news is the contextual menu, which seems to work. Holding down on a chosen Genre brings up a Play option. So this works for now. Err... no? Problem is I can't test this right now since I don't have MusicIP on my 7.3 server. It should be in the Album Context menu that you get when holding an album. And in the TrackInfo menu you get when holding a track within an album or on the current playlist or the NowPlaying cover art. Is it not there? What do you see?MusicIP shows up nicely in the contextual menus everywhere. Only issue seems to be that mixing is very slow (albeit, no load for MusicIP on the server while mixing !?).

Next up was to download and install iPeng 1.2 and to figure out how to use the touch and iPeng. Brilliant...there's a bit of learning for a guy brought up on Windows (not to mind PCDOS) but once the touch interface begins to make sense, iPeng turns out to be a treat.

For a combination of small file size and compatibility MP3 would have been the best option. For small file size, with a format that can be played natively by the Squeezeboxes WMA was probably the best bet. But then you sacrifice compatibility. The proper answer though would have been to buy a new hard drive, encode to FLAC and worry about encoding to lossy files only when you really need the small file size. -- andynormancx Yes, it will.

If you were converting to lossless format, mp3 is the logical choice. It's supported by just about everything out there. However, as another poster suggested something lossless like FLAC would be the way to go if you are ripping your collection. With the size of HDDs these days it's not really an issue that it takes more space to store and you can always batch convert later if you want to put it into any given lossy format. -- slimfast slimfast's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29669 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68698 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] iPeng 1.2 for iPhone now on the AppStore
I'm using iPeng since it's available on iTunes store. It has changed completely my usage of SqueezeBoxes... I've always found the Squeezebox interface very limited -- such as browsing through a list of artists or album on a single line display. And did not want to carry my PC in the living room. And then there was iPeng. It is all at once: convenient, easy, stable enough, good looking, it shows the artwork, etc And now, my iPod Touch can be put in good use even when I stay home. Thanks for the good job!

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] iPeng 1.2 for iPhone now on the AppStore
Hi there, Long time, no posting from my side. It does not mean I do not enjoy my Squeezebox iPeng. In fact I am actually using this daily (iPeng was my main motivation for buying my original iPod Touch). It looks fantastic (finally the home-screen-icon app. graphics that you've been longing for :-). And I surely can control many more aspects easily and quickly. Nice! I have a few questions / comments, and do realise that I as usual risk just having overlooked this...but here we go (using SqueezeCenter 7.3.2): - Tapping on the left/right side of the dots on the now playing screens does no longer seem to have any effect - choice or bug? - I suffer from slow reaction when browsing artists or genres. Every time I choose e.g. a genre, it is loading for a lng time before showing something, then I choose an artist and the same happens. This makes it slow and frustrating. Anything I can do? Would a bigger cache improve on things? For my sake you can cache *everything* (iPeng is my most important app, after all). - I cannot find the MusicIP integration - is it gone? - I experience, when browsing certain genres, that when I click all albums, then I literally see all albums in my library - not the ones belonging to the chosen genre. Anyone else experiencing this? Could be a Server issue, although it works fine on the Squeezebox itself.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] iPeng 1.2 for iPhone now on the AppStore
Hi Pippin, Ok, thanks for the ultraquick support :-) I will look where described. I tried checking the help on the website, but did not manage to find anything related to MusicIP, but guess I should have searched for mixers in general. My bad. I will try tomorrow. As for the Cache thing, sure. I do only have 7.000 tracks (all in AAC format) so it is not a huge collection - hence, it should be possible to cache everything. The music server itself is a bit old though (G4 Mac Mini running 10.5), so it could be a server performance issue, I guess...

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] iPeng 1.2 for iPhone now on the AppStore
Sune, neither the G4 nor your library size should cause issues. The AAC on the other hand... Is the browsing slower if you play something? AAC is being transcoded on your server so THAT will consume quite a bit of CPU. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68698 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Another issue I have observed in 1.2 and with the prev. versions as well (maybe a known issue). After startup, when I go straight to the New Music page there is no progress bar telling about updating cache. If I switch to the album view it is shown, but goes away again if I decide to switch to the New Music View again. Should not the progress indicator be shown in any view that deals with information from the server or at least those that display cover art?

The cache is updated, as the cover art is shown in the end, but the user is not informed what is going on. The progress indicator has nothing to do with the cover art (other than that cover art only starts loading after all albums have been cached). Instead, it shows how much of the _page_ you are looking at is already cached. And it only shows up for pages that do actually become cached. These are Albums, Artists and Genres. NewMusic is not being cached since it typically only contains 200 albums which is not _that_ much for iPeng. abelincoln;466410 Wrote: Loving the upgrade.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] iPeng 1.2 for iPhone now on the AppStore
Greetings Pippin! Fantastic update; love it with 7.4 (despite 7.4's teething problems). ;-) That said, I found a couple of graphical glitches on mine when the tutorials kick in. Not a deal breaker for me but thought I'd mention it. See the image below. This happened when I hit the reverse button at the bottom of the tutorial when it was playing to see an animation play over (by the way, you might want to add an iPeng setting to disable animations and to slow playback down). I'm on an iPhone 3GS (3.1) and Squeezebox Server 7.4 on Vista 32 bit SP2. Did a clean install of SB Server and updated my previous version of iPeng while sync'd to iTunes.

took me some fussing (mainly with squeezebox server) to get it running, but i like the new version -- takes care of many of the nits i had about 1.1. Question- for some reason albums are showing multiple times, even if they have the same artist. The controlling factor appears to be the composer -- for example in the screen shot attached, Abbey Road shows up 5 times because there are 5 different combinations of composers for different songs (lennon-macarteny;lennon-macarteny-harrison, etc). its a real hassle, and i dont see how to fix it.When I want to view my albums, I want to see each album once.

Good find! Is animation playback too fast? I had a lot of experimenting around this because I didn't want it to be too slow (I don't want people to skip the animation, but of course it should not be too slow. My compromise is that the automatic progressing is disabled whenever you manually go back or next so that you can decide on your own speed. pichonCalavera;465964 Wrote: I think marking several items and moving one, causing them to move at the same time would be nice feature.

Is this an upcoming feature that is not ready yet? This doesn't work from the NowPlaying context menu. I know it but it's a complete mystery to me, currently investigating. All other menus seem to work, I suspect it's something to do with some context on the plugin side not being set correctly or whatever.

Do you see your player in the server's web interface? Are you actually connected to your server? Or does it show up under Music Sources which means you have to select it. If it's the latter and you are seeing this more often, please try enabling Settings-iPeng Settings-Forget Last Server.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] iPeng 1.2 for iPhone now on the AppStore
Pippin, this is a really good release. Thanks for the time and effort, a vast improvement over 1.1.2. One thing though that I was really hoping for was the default screen when viewing the main menus. When you click the left arrow from the Now Playing screen, it always takes you to the settings page. In all likelihood I'm going looking for more music to play, not change my settings. I tend to browse by Artist or, possibly, by Album, so I have these dragged down to the shortcut bar at the bottom. Could it remember the page you were last on (between sessions too), or failing that default to the first of the 4 shortcuts? Hope this makes sense... -- hunta hunta's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=333 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68698 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] iPeng 1.2 for iPhone now on the AppStore
Hi Pippin, First time I've been able to use it for a while as I had to upgrade to 7.4 a couple of months back after the Slim team fixed a problem for me. It all works fine except occasionally I find that I'm stuck in Now playing mode (the three screen swipe) with no way to get out. The icon at the top of the screen is missing and hence there is no way to break out. Just wondering if you've come across that before. I'm going to try and reproduce to see if I can consistently make this happen as I'm not sure what is causing this at the moment. I've attached screen shots of the Now playing screens. regards Russ +---+ |Filename: 065.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=8281| +---+ -- luga00 luga00's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1938 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68698 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
