Question: Does Album Catalogue Creator (RC5+) create a trustworthy
output?

- Yes
- Yes but with minor issues
- No
- It does not work at all


I saw on the website that a version 1.6 was available. So I downloaded
and tried it:
- bug with tracks longer than 1 hour is fixed. Thanks;
- I see that the addition of Codec and Bitrate is implemented. A very
interesting option (now I can quickly see which albums still to upgrade
from mp3 to flac);

I do see some things that from my taste can be improved:
- the word Flac or mp3 is immediately written after the year, so no
spaces in between;
- the codec  bitrate information is not in italic, rest of that line
is;
- I personally like brackets better than the pipe-character (my
taste);
- I have some problems with collections of random songs that I treat as
various artist (example top2000) where I have put all track-numbers as
0. 
In 1.5b that worked well, now I see that it is not recognized as
compilation, or only 1 song is listed.
I will try to add tracknumbers and see if that helps.
NOTE: I have also upgraded from 7.3.3 to 7.4.1 squeezecenter, that may
also affect the various artist albums.

I think I can modify the output format (spaces, italics) myself to make
it fit my taste.

BTW: Is v1.6 an official release or was it just there to test-drive ?

Does the K in your name stand for Kuijer? In that case we've worked
together  ;-) Anyway

1.6 is an official release.
Can you provide a screen shot of a header as the header ACC generates
looks like the attached image where FLAC and MP3 is printed on the next
line, not after the year. Also only the album name and year line is in
italic.

Album tracks are sorted by tracknumber. When all tracknumber are set to
0 I an imagine this going wrong. Do you include the list entry # in the
track title?

No screen shot at hand. But my output has codec and bitrate on the same
line as album name and year.
What you show with a separate line looks very nice.

 
 Album tracks are sorted by tracknumber. When all tracknumber are set to
 0 I an imagine this going wrong. Do you include the list entry # in the

Also I have set the tracknr in the filename to 00. I will change this
later this week and see if that fixes the issue. :)

Another small issue I found.
I have some very long tracks on some of my albums.
Tracks longer than 1 hour are not listed correctly by ACC (v1.5b).

Example:
Klaus Schulze - The Dome Event has 2 tracks. ACC lists them as:
01 - The Dome Event (3:32)   =  but correct length is 1:03:32
02 - After Eleven (10:44)= correct

Nothing dramatic, but it would be nice to fix in a next release (if
easy).

 You're second point is due to an incorrectly set 'Full remote physical

 to make troubleshooting easyer. Press the TEST button n the remote
 server option screen and an example database entry is displayed on the
 bottom of the ACC screen. Use this syntax for the 'Full remote physical
 path to music share' setting.
 The good news is you only have to find out this setting once.
 
Frank, I did some further testing and it has to do with the
AlbumArtFilename in the Advanced Options, and not with the Remote Server
options:
I use a strange filename Frontmini.jpg for my covers and have also
entered that name in the ACC-GUI.
But every run of ACC I needed to press the OK button on the Advanced
Options page, to get these Frontmini.jpg files found. 

I have now added this filename in the AlbumCatalogCreator-V1.5b.hta
script-file and the Frontmini.jpg-files are found without going through
the Options/Advanced Options in the GUI. So just run ACC and press
Start.
I am happy now :)!
-Strangely enough, when I look the ACC.log file the correct filename is
mentioned there, also when no pictures are found.-

One other question:
In the listings for my Diverse artiesten CDs (My SqueezeCenter runs
in Dutch) ACC does not add the artist (so it lists only Tracknumber -
Title).
I think that this is caused by the fact that SC reports these CDs not
as Various Artists, but as Diverse artiesten.
Where should I change that in the scripts ?

I have printed my first complete catalog (~200 pages). *I never had
such a great looking printed overview of my Music Collection.*
Thank you Frank !

Hi Andre,

Great to hear you have now good results and thank you for reporting the
problem which obviously is a bug which I'll fix in the next release. I
also didn't know that SC stores 'various artists' also in a localized
language. i would have expected that all database storage would be in
english whereas localization would be performed in the GUI. Good to
know. Don't know if i'll support the localized languages in the future
though considering the effort...but again thanks for the reporting!!!

I am so far a happy user of 1.5b version of Album Catalog Creator.
Thanks Frank.

Two remarks:
1) Is it possible to add a filter for Artist such that by selecting
A* I only get the artists starting with A, or by selecting Jethro T*
I only get my Jethro Tull-albums as ouput ?

2) I have my Album Art separately in files, not as part of the
Squeezebox database.
Both the files and the database is on a Synology NAS.
What I experience is that when I run AAC I must go through all option
windows of ACC, just click OK (all options are already filled in
correctly) for ACC to use the external Album Art-files.
If I just run ACC and click START then the catalog contains No
Pictures.
Is this normal ?

Hi AndreK and thanks.

Regarding your first point; I think it is a very interesting idea. What
I mean is that it isn't hard at all to implement a filter like you
suggest so consider that one added to my to do list. To some extend it
is possible using the starting folder option in the main screen.

You're second point is due to an incorrectly set 'Full remote physical
path to music share'. Set the starting folder to a single artist folder
to make troubleshooting easyer. Press the TEST button n the remote
server option screen and an example database entry is displayed on the
bottom of the ACC screen. Use this syntax for the 'Full remote physical
path to music share' setting.
The good news is you only have to find out this setting once.

If this does not help you send me an e-mail and I'll contact you and
ask for some configuration information.

Still no response from Frank,

hope you're ok, though,

I had an old version (1.1), that I tried  it's working great here.

As I have a full back up of my music collection on my windows PC, I did
run ACC there rather than from the NAS.

Congrats Frank, it's really a nice program, very usefull indeed.

So far I have properly tagged only my Flac files (more than 600
albums), but I will now work with the mp3, a lot of tag work has to be
done...

If it's possible, could you please add the option of the codec format
used : flac, mp3, wma or whatever.

It could be listed closed to the album or artist name.

 Some more info on 3716.
 
 I am running my slimserver on a linux box on the 255.255.255.0 and I
 have been getting the 3716 error pretty well regardless of whether I
 include the server box in my trusted sites or not. The only way I have
 got the system to run is allow Access to data sources across domains
 for the internet zone (no effect in the other zones). In this case, I
 don't need to add the slimserver IP to the trusted sites list.
 
 I presume this is because my windows box does not recognise my
 slimserver box as being in the same domain (and I'm too lazy to figure
 out what I need to change - I can live with doing this change as a one
 off to run acc). 
 
 Anyway, I hope this is helpful. Now I'm getting the report without
 cover art, so on to trouble shooting that!

Thx for the tip. I added it as one of the solutions on the ACC download
page. No cover art is often related to a wrong remote path.

I haven't seen a commercial program yet that generates a catalog from a
music collection. But if you would like to get ACC to work please post
details about the problem you're having and I should be able to help
you out.

I still have some problems with this. I can get ACC to work, when I
point it directly to one album folder. For example:

Starting folder:

Z:\Music - does not give me anything but error message

but

Z:\Music\Z:\ABBA - The Definitive Collection -

I get a ACC page with two albums (ABBA collection is a double album)
but not the album art. I use FLAC files and the album art is in the
FLAC, not a separate as a picture file.

Can anyone give a hint where I should try to find the solution?

Thx for your positive feedback! Good to hear everything is working.
Also good point you have there regarding the squeezecenter security
settings. I personally don't use any security restrictions so it never
came to mind.

ACC interacts only with the underlying MySQL database (except for album
covers if the option is used to retrieve them through SqueezeCenter).
Can you confirm for my understanding that step 3 is really necessarry
for ACC to work?

Thanks for the feedback on #3. Port 9092 is used for the connection to
mysql. 

Album covers are either retrieved based on file level access (on
Windows this is performed by SMB and uses netbios ports:
NetBIOS Datagram Service   UDP  138
NetBIOS Name ResolutionUDP  137
NetBIOS Session ServiceTCP  139

and SMB itself:
SMB TCP 445

or from squeezecenter itself (option in ACC) then this is being done by
hypertext URL hence port 80.

Hope this is of any help.

Actually, yes. I have modified the mysql file to put the Bind adress

other modification (do I need to compile or restart something to load
this modification ?)
So I do not know what else to check to know what is wrong :
- MySql modification at the server side : Done
- stop the firewalls on both sides loca + remote in case : Done

The tool works perfectly on local but not distant. It should be not a
problem with the Album Catalog Creator tool, because I tried to connect
trough Excel with the same error result when trying to connect.
== Any idea ?

What location was the my.tt file in on your synology? I believe mysql
maintains an active copy and a 'template' version. You must change the
template versions otherwise the changes made get overwritten again. Can
you verify that the file you modified still has a # sign before the
bindaddress line?

Besides firewalls I don't have a clue why a connection attempt does not
work.
You can download the mysql administration tools. Those are nice easy to
use GUI tools, usefull for troubleshooting such things as these.

SilverRS8, is it possible to make the Display CDx an option even when
the tag exists. All of my CDs have a DISCNUM 1/x tag which gets
translated to DISC 1/x by SqueezeCenter. I don't want to see CD1 for
albums where the tag is DISC 1/1.

A very good point! It should be an option whether the CD number is
displayed or not. I'll make the changes and post an update.

A new version of ACC is available. Changelist is below:

ADDED: Display total albums and total tracks as last line of generated
catalog
FIXED: Proper error handling for incorrectly specified remote folder
(ACC would hang)
FIXED: No album covers displayed when international characters in
physical path to cover file. The 'Use album cover stored in
SqueezeCenter instead of physical file' worked ok for these album
covers though.
CHANGED: Display CDx (if used in the tags) in the header instead of
tracklist otherwise when selecting the option not to display tracks, CD
number would not be displayed.
CHANGED: When not using a '0' prefix for track number  10, the
tracknumber is correctly aligned with track numbers 10
CHANGED: Title suffix 'by artist', 'by album', or 'by genre' changed to
small characters and next line

 Hi!
 Just a little note:
 I'm swedish and I do have a couple of directories with swedish
 characters for my albums. ACC will not be able to get the album art for
 these albums if you use file based album arts (I haven't tried ID3-tag
 album arts yet but will do)
 

I'm currently doing some fixing including this one. The problem is
related to UTF-8 encoding. File paths are stored UTF-8 encoded in the
database. International character are stored using 16 bytes (2 hex
digits). Example: Björk is stored as Bj%C3%B6rk. ACC currently doesn't
handle this. 
I'll look into it but if anyone knows if mysql provides a native
conversion function for this this would really be helpfull. VBS
conversion code as alternative will also do.

 Great! Thanx, it seems to be working.

I was happy too soon :)

Test goes ok and the Catalog creation starts ok...I think. After a

finnish, so I don't put it here, but it says something like the script
thats running in Explorer might make the pc work slower. Do you want to
quit? YES - NO

If I press No - the work seems to continue, but I get the same message
over and over again. I've continued this for a couple of hours, but
nothing happens. And finally I press the Yes -button and sometimes I
get a html-page with headers, but nothing in it. Sometimes not eaven

I'm sorry if this has allready been answered previously, I haven't had

Thanks in advance for the possible solutions.

Windows monitors processes. If processes become too busy, windows
reports the message you reported. This can mean the scripts eithers
hangs or the script is very busy making Windows thinks there is
something wrong with it.
To check if ACC is really doing something while running, check if the
log file is growing. If zo, ignore the Windows messages. 

You can also mail me a logfile of a moment in time where ACC has been
running for a while.

 Hi!
 I'm running my slimserver on a Qnap TS-209II NAS server and the ACC on
 a Windows Vista Home edition. Since I like the ACC appplication but
 I've been struggling to get this to work, I thought I would share my
 thought:
 
 Point 4 above: Since you add the IP-address of the NAS to the trusted
 zone in point 2, I believe you must enable 'Access data sources across
 domains' for your trusted zone. This is done under:
 Menu Tools - Options - Security TAB - Trusted zone - Custom...
 or, do as I, enable it for all 3 zones!
 
 Point 5: On the Qnap, you also need to edit this line in the my.tt
 file:
 bind-address = [% bindAddress %]
 
 Change this line to:
 #bind-address = [% bindAddress %]
 
 Point 6: This will get you started BUT you will run out of tmp space on
 the Qnap. So, create another tmp directory on a disk with a lot of free
 space, for example /volume1/tmp and then add the following line to your
 my.tt file under the [mysqld] section:
 tmpdir = /volume1/tmp/
 
 Point 7: Stop and restart slimserver and MySQL on the Qnap.
 
 Now you're ready to go! But it will take a while to get all the
 information! I have about 24000 tracks and it took a couple of hours to
 run the application. But, as Carlsberg would say, it's worth waiting for
 :)
 
 Just a little note:
 I'm swedish and I do have a couple of directories with swedish
 characters for my albums. ACC will not be able to get the album art for
 these albums if you use file based album arts (I haven't tried ID3-tag
 album arts yet but will do)
 
 Hope this helps some of you to get the application running because it's
 a real nice application!

Thank you for this. I also have the same system setup. But I'm having
difficulties in accesing the files mentioned above. Could someone
please write a step by step quide, how do I do everything? Especially
the part, where I need to find my.tt file. How do I find it, what tools
do I need etc.? When I go to QNAP with filemanager all I see are the
folders Public, Qusb, Qweb and so on...

So if someone could help me and maybe some others too, who have their
thumbs in the middle of their palms when it comse to Linux -systems :)

you can try to use the ' Use album cover stored in SqueezeCenter
instead of physical file(slow)' option. Haven't checked it yet but
album cover image links will than refer to a squeezecenter URL instead
of pointing to the actual file. I expect album covers of albums with
filepaths with special characters in it should display correctly.

 Can a portable database be created as it would be useful to have a copy
 on a portable device? Either copying the AlbumArtCatalogs folder or
 performing a File Save within the catalog breaks the artwork. The
 artwork only seems to load with AlbumArtCatalogs in the location where
 was originally created.

I don't really understand the question and don't know if it is ACC
related but ACC uses the references as stored in the squeezecenter
database so ACC wil not use a copy of the album art elsewhere if one
was made. Does this answer your question.

Yes it's AAC related, that's why I posted in your AAC thread. 

After running AAC, a folder is created in the same directory where the
AAC application is located. This folder is named AlbumCatalogs. This
folder contains 3 files:

AlbumCatalog - Date - QuickRef.html
AlbumCatalog - Date.html
AlbumCatalog - Date.html.mht

With my approx 1,000 album database the last file is around 4.5MB. This
would seem to include the artwork images.

Moving the AlbumCatalogs folder to any other location results is the
vast majority of art not displaying, but some does.

Performing a File Save As within a browser with the AlbumCatalog.html
open creates a structure like so:

Squeezebox Album Collection (by Artist).htm  a folder name
Squeezebox Album Collection (by Artist)_files. The folder contains
all of the artwork images in the format folder(1).jpg.

Again, opening Squeezebox Album Collection (by Artist).htm results in
the same result, most art is not displayed.

What I am try to achieve is a portable copy of the database as output
by AAC complete with artwork. This would be useful to hold on a PDA (or
similar device with a browser)to avoid duplicate purchases when browsing
in a shop.

 Yes it's AAC related, that's why I posted in your AAC thread. 
 
 After running AAC, a folder is created in the same directory where the
 AAC application is located. This folder is named AlbumCatalogs. This
 folder contains 3 files:
 
 AlbumCatalog - Date - QuickRef.html
 AlbumCatalog - Date.html
 AlbumCatalog - Date.html.mht
 
 With my approx 1,000 album database the last file is around 4.5MB. This
 would seem to include the artwork images.
 
 Moving the AlbumCatalogs folder to any other location results is the
 vast majority of art not displaying, but some does.
 
 Performing a File Save As within a browser with the AlbumCatalog.html
 open creates a structure like so:
 
 Squeezebox Album Collection (by Artist).htm  a folder name
 Squeezebox Album Collection (by Artist)_files. The folder contains
 all of the artwork images in the format folder(1).jpg.
 
 Again, opening Squeezebox Album Collection (by Artist).htm results in
 the same result, most art is not displayed.
 
 What I am try to achieve is a portable copy of the database as output
 by AAC complete with artwork. This would be useful to hold on a PDA (or
 similar device with a browser)to avoid duplicate purchases when browsing
 in a shop.

The art work in the .HTML file directly links to the actual location
where the art is stored and using the drive mapping used during the
generation of it. Moving this file to another computer not having this
mapping will result is art work being missing.

The .mht file though is a file which is portable and can either be
stored anywhere else or send to someone else as all page content is
included in the .mht file. It is a standard Internet Explorer feature
and file format. Another way of making it portable is saving the
catalog as PDF file (useful if you don't want to use the Internet
explorer archive format).

Hello Frank,

I'm also getting the 2147217887 error. (see attachement)
Using SS7.2 on my Synology NAS:

SqueezeCenter Version: 7.2 - 22900 @ Tue Aug 26 10:59:02 PDT 2008 -
Linux - EN - iso-8859-1
Server IP address: 192.168.1.150
Perl Version: 5.8.6 MARVELL_88F5281
MySQL Version: 5.0.51b
Platform Architecture: MARVELL_88F5281
Hostname: DiskStation
Server Port Number: 9002
Total Players Recognized: 1

OBDC connector test from Vista is ok.
I also modified the connect string in the hta file.

I read somewhere in this tread that this problem may be caused due to
the fact that mysql connect commands are case sensitive in Linux.
Should this be solved in the latest 1.0 version of ACC?

Hi Frank,
I keep my music on a couple of external USB disks and let SC know about
them but having a couple of folder short cuts. SC follows these but your
code does not. Any chance of an update.
Just a question - why do we have to tell your proggy where to start
lookin? Can it not just get the info from SC settings?

Thanks 
Tom

 Yes: you are right if there are two artists listed (using the ;

 I must confess that I have not been consistent in how I tag things with
 more than 1 artist.

I recently made the transition to a FreeNAS NAS. When I run ACC from
the NAS, the 'Safety settings on this computer prohibit accessing a
data source on another domain' message appear. No matter what solution
I try it will not free me from this error. When I run ACC from the
Windows machine directly - as in copy the stuff from the NAS to a local
disk - it runs fine.

So this must be another Microsoft security issue but I though to post
this so maybe other have some use for it.

In the meantime I've started to do some bugfixing like some users have
requested in this thread.

Frank

Just to follow up on this; I've now changed SqueezeCenter settings

simply The.  I've just run another catalogue with version 1, and I
still get the artist A showing at the start of the list even though
they're tracks only present on comps.

I've done loads of clear and rescans since my previous post, and indeed
have deleted the cache folder several times.

Any thoughts on how to fix?

SilverRS8;319001 Wrote: 
 This error is Windows related and is poorly documented by Microsoft.
 There is no real solution for it as far as I know other than try some
 options.
 
 I'll list some here. Hopefully one of them will work.
 
 1. Check if you have the latest MySQL ODBC driver installed !
 
 2. Add the host running ACC to the trusted zone in Internet Explorer
 so add http://localhost and http://127.0.0.1 to the trusted site zone.
 Ofcourse if you are using a remote server, add that IP number here.
 
 3. Edit the AlbumCatalogCreator-V1.hta file with a text editor.
 
 Line 53 (v1.0) looks like:
 ConnectString3 = ;Port=9092;Database=slimserver;UID=slimserver;Pas
 sword=slimserver;Option=3
 
 Change the Password=slimserver to Password= so you effectively leave
 the password blank. Then try to run it again. This one is reported to
 work by another user.
 
 4. ACC uses some parts of Internet Explorer to execute. Try the
 following from Internet Explorer:
 Menu Tools - Options - Security TAB - Local Intranet zone -
 Custom...
 Under the Miscellaneous section Enable 'Access data sources across
 domains' the try ACC again
 If this does not work. Do it again for the other zones as the error
 report says to access a data source in ANOTHER domain is prohibited.
 
 If one works please let me know so I can include in in the help file.
 
 Frank

Hi!
I'm running my slimserver on a Qnap TS-209II NAS server and the ACC on
a Windows Vista Home edition. Since I like the ACC appplication but
I've been struggling to get this to work, I thought I would share my
thought:

Point 4 above: Since you add the IP-address of the NAS to the trusted
zone in point 2, I believe you must enable 'Access data sources across
domains' for your trusted zone. This is done under:
Menu Tools - Options - Security TAB - Trusted zone - Custom...
or, do as I, enable it for all 3 zones!

Point 5: On the Qnap, you also need to edit this line in the my.tt
file:
bind-address = [% bindAddress %]

Change this line to:
#bind-address = [% bindAddress %]

Point 6: This will get you started BUT you will run out of tmp space on
the Qnap. So, create another tmp directory on a disk with a lot of free
space, for example /volume1/tmp and then add the following line to your
my.tt file under the [mysqld] section:
tmpdir = /volume1/tmp/

Point 7: Stop and restart slimserver and MySQL on the Qnap.

Now you're ready to go! But it will take a while to get all the
information! I have about 24000 tracks and it took a couple of hours to
run the application. But, as Carlsberg would say, it's worth waiting for
:)

Just a little note:
I'm swedish and I do have a couple of directories with swedish
characters for my albums. ACC will not be able to get the album art for
these albums if you use file based album arts (I haven't tried ID3-tag
album arts yet but will do)

Hope this helps some of you to get the application running because it's
a real nice application!

 e.g. Loudmouth -Best of Bob Geldof  the Boomtown Rats.  Some tracks

 (TrackArtist) but I have AlbumArtist=Bob Geldof  the Boomtown Rats!
 
 Is there a way of defeating this so that the track is only printed once

Great to hear everything is working now. Was disabling/modifying the
firewall the solution to the problem (good to know)?

I believe that the problem you are facing with is due to the fact that
squeezecenter actually stores two references to the album in the
database.
The same thing occurs when you specify multiple artists by using the
';' as seperator char.

I'll see if I can create a fix for it. I need to build a query that
could combine the different artist results for a single album but must
admit my SQL knowledge is not quiet the level required here ;-) If
anyone is able to help me out by a really intelligent SQL query, I
would be most happy. Otherwise i have to create a workaround in the
code processing the current results which would not benefit the
performance I'm afraid. Anyway. Issues is on my to do list.

Looks like the duplicate file option is based on size and/or name. I
don't think either is ideal since they may not be the same - it really
needs a search to be by tag info too.  I have an Excel app that reads
tag info, so I guess I can use it to easily find duplicates.

You need to look in the folder c:\Program

my.tt and edit this file using notepad or some text editor. This is the
default location. Change it to your specific situation if applicable.

The my.tt file contains a line like below:
bind-address = [% bindAddress %]

Change this line to:
#bind-address = [% bindAddress %]

Then restart your computer (or the squeezecenter services). The
squeezecenter database does now allow to remotly access the database.
Follow the instructions in the remote option and help screen to
configure ACC for remote usage. Again, post a message on this forum if
you need any help.

 the bitrate in, lets say, brackets behind the track?

The bitrate in brackets would be perfect!

I know what you mean about the length of paths... how about having a
fixed-length field and showing the start and end of the path if it's
too long?

e.g. D:\music library\Marillion\Marbles
D:\music library\Tom Pe..\Into The Great Wide Open

I would think that the path to the album would be sufficient, rather
than to the song, so this would keep it shorter.

I'll put the bitrate option on my next version todo list. 
As for the album path option I don't think it can be universally
implemented. I agree with you that only the path would be sufficient
but everybody uses its own path structure making it difficult to find a
universal solution.

One of the advantages for including the path is that it would make it
easier to find duplicate files.  Is there another way this could be
done?

If displaying the path was optional, I'm not sure that nice formatting
is vital!

I would suggest that if you want to easily detect all duplicate file to
use a tool for that. Total Commander is a very good tool on Windows to
do that (I use it a lot).

This error is Windows related and is poorly documented by Microsoft.
There is no real solution for it as far as I know other than try some
options.

I'll list some here. Hopefully one of them will work.

1. Check if you have the latest MySQL ODBC driver installed !

2. Add the host running ACC to the trusted zone in Internet Explorer
so add http://localhost and http://127.0.0.1 to the trusted site zone.
Ofcourse if you are using a remote server, add that IP number here.

3. Edit the AlbumCatalogCreator-V1.hta file with a text editor.

Line 53 (v1.0) looks like:
ConnectString3 = ;Port=9092;Database=slimserver;UID=slimserver;Pas
sword=slimserver;Option=3

Change the Password=slimserver to Password= so you effectively leave
the password blank. Then try to run it again. This one is reported to
work by another user.

4. ACC uses some parts of Internet Explorer to execute. Try the
following from Internet Explorer:
Menu Tools - Options - Security TAB - Local Intranet zone -
Custom...
Under the Miscellaneous section Enable 'Access data sources across
domains' the try ACC again
If this does not work. Do it again for the other zones as the error
report says to access a data source in ANOTHER domain is prohibited.

If one works please let me know so I can include in in the help file.

Sorry for the delay in responding.

I tried this change on a test machine and it seems to have cured the
problem. I will re-run tonight on my 'production' squeezecenter machine
and see if it works there as well.

New to this thread but had a look at ACC info  looks just what I'm

Unfortunately I am getting the same 3716 error 'safety settings on this

I tried older versions with exactly the same problem right back to
RC3.

With RC2a I get a different problem:
'An error occured while connection to the database. The error data is
printed below.  Error number: 0

I have tried it on both the SC machine  a remote machine with same

I am running XP Home Edition on the SqueezeCenter machine  XP Media

Have I missed anaything obvious?

I looked up the differences in RC4 and v1.0 and I can only think of the
connection string to the database which is different. You can try
changing line 53 in version 1 to be the same as is RC4.

Line 53 (v1.0) looks like:
ConnectString3 =
;Port=9092;Database=slimserver;UID=slimserver;Password=slimserver;Option=3

Change the Password=slimserver to Password= so you effectively leave
the password blank. Then try to run it again.

Between RC4 and v1.0 are quick a lot of small changes. What is the
first version above RC4 giving the problem? This would greatly simplify
the troubleshooting process.

1) I believe not. The artist surname isn't stored in a seperate DB

easily done. At least not without errors. I'm currious though how SC
performs this trick
2) Thanks for the report. I've but it on my bugfix list for the next

Just tried version 1 of this, works great!  Two very minor issues,
though.

Under SqueezeCenter settings  Music Library  Articles to ignore when
sorting I've entered A An The which means SC sorts the same as
iTunes.

However, I've got three tracks by a band called A, as in just a
capital letter A on it's own.  All three tracks are on different
compilations, which are recongnised as comps by SC, and indeed are
listed under Various Artists when I create a catalogue with ACC.

Also, I've got, as the very last entry on the catalog (the \Album
Catalogue Creator\AlbumCatalogs\AlbumCatalog - 14-06-2008.html.mht
view), a missing image placeholder; if I right-click it I get the
attached info, which tells me it's address is my path\Album
Catalogue Creator\AlbumCatalogs\ but there's nothing in there apart
from the 3 catalogues.  Any ideas?  All my artwork shows correctly in
SqueezeCenter.

I can e-mail you the catalogues and log files if that helps?

Win XP Pro SP2, Internet Explorer 7.

Hi moley6knipe,

Currently ACC only has an option to ignore 'the' but it should be
fairly easy to make this user defineable. I'll put it on my todo list
for the next version update.

Can you mail me de catalogfile (the .HTML, not the .MHT as all the
cover reference are replaced with internal references to allow
everything to be stored in 1 file. Also the acc.log file please.

Best regards,

Frank

Thanks for the update, I can now get the program to produce the album
catalog. Unfortunately there is still some problems.

1. I can't get it to show the album covers, it doesn't matter which of
the two options I use. Are there anyway I can sort this out myself?
2. There are some of my albums that split themselves up, so that all of
the tracks but one is in the same square, and then there is one random
song who got its own listing. I can't tell by looking at the tag, why
this is. What could be the solution?

Great to hear it now works. Now up to solving the last problem

1. Can you tell something about your configuration? Remote Linux?
remote IP number? How does the sample path look like when pressing the
test button in the remote server option screen.

Can you send me or post the following files:
- ACC logfile or send it to me by mail.
- Sample of a generated catalog

2. This is probably due to inconsistency in character case usage in the
tags. Check the case of the MP3 album tags carefully. There is probably
a difference in it. This causes SqueezeCenter to store in under a
different album id than the other tracks and hence ACC thinks its an
other album.

- Yes
- Yes but with minor issues
- No
- It does not work at all

 Great to hear it now works. Now up to solving the last problem
 
 1. Can you tell something about your configuration? Remote Linux?
 remote IP number? How does the sample path look like when pressing the
 test button in the remote server option screen.
 
 Can you send me or post the following files:
 - ACC logfile or send it to me by mail.
 - Sample of a generated catalog
 
 2. This is probably due to inconsistency in character case usage in the
 tags. Check the case of the MP3 album tags carefully. There is probably
 a difference in it. This causes SqueezeCenter to store in under a
 different album id than the other tracks and hence ACC thinks its an
 other album.

Just posted RC7 (http://www.vanholt.nl/acc/acc.htm) which should fix the
issues with remote Linux servers. 

I added a new option to use the either the physical album cover files
on disc or the album cover files by SqueezeCenter URL reference. The
latter one is much slower. Not with generating the actual catalog but
only when displaying it as URLs to SqueezeCenter are then resolved. Is
does however support embedded cover files in tags.

If you have a remote Linux server, let me know if it works aas I am
unable myself to test it.

Frank

I have tried it and it works as long I check the Use album cover
option. Otherwise I get a no-cover image for the albums.

Thx for the quick feedback.

With the 'Use album cover' disabled you must have the proper drive
mapping to the music share from the machine running ACC to the Linux
machine. The full remote physical directory path also needs to be
entered correctly for ACC to be able to access the file based covers.
This path needs to be entered in the same syntax as it is stored in the
DB. A sample path, retrieve from the DB, is displayed when pressing the
TEST button and can be used as guidance to the syntax to be used. If
all is done properly and the covers still aren't displayed than there
is probably an issue with ACC and remote LINUX servers access the
physical album covers. 
On remote Windows servers this option seems to work fine.

Frank

In my opinion I have the path set correctly= mnt/Musikdisk/Musik/ OR
should the last / be omitted?

Hi,

I'm having a problem using ACC. I am trying to connect to a remote
slimserver running on a QNAP NAS server. What I have done:

1. I have downloaded the ODBC drivers and installed them (I use Windows
Vista)
2. I have ssh'd into the server and changed the my.tt file so that
remote connections are allowed.

I have clicked the 'test' button in ACC and it tells me that the
connection to the database is successful. However, when I click 'start'
I get the following error message:

Error while querying for album data
Error number: -2147217887
Error description: ODBC driver does not support the requested features
(translated from Danish, so probably not 100% correct)
Unable to continue. Click OK to quit ACC.

I have downloaded the MySQL query browser and I can connect to the
remote database on the QNAP without any problems.

I have looked through the thread but haven't found anyone with a
similar error. I hope someone has some ideas on what's causing the
error.

Thanks in advance,
Kasper

I have the same problems. In the acc.log file I can see that it doesn't
get to create the table it needs.

There seems to be a problem in ACC supporting remote Linux servers (a
big thanks to forum user parubini for indicating this). It appears
that, besides the filesystem, SQL connectivity is also case-sensitive.
I'm in the process of fixing the code and hope to post it this week.
Please try it if posted and let me know the outcome...

Frank
