Excuse me whilst I just pop downstairs and see if it is playing - yep it says error cant open file for Blank. What could be causing that? I eagerly await the next revision. Ok, just put a new version up - 0.09.. I've hopefully fixed the punctuation and accented characters in filename/path problems. Bit of a nightmare. Previously the tracks I was telling the server to play were relative to the server root, but it didnt seem to like this when there were %E6 type characters in the path, so I had to pass in the full path to the mp3 - drive letters and everything.. Great.. Everything was working.. until I tried a .lnk file.. Arghh.. Anyhow, to cut a long story short, when I scan, I now build a list of .lnk files and their targets and store this in the .moo file. When resolving a track which has a .lnk in the path, I use this cached .lnk target to get the full absolute path to the mp3 file.. So, anyhow, fingers crossed it should work a bit better now.. The .moo file-format's had to be changed to accomodate the .lnks, so it may ask you to rescan the next time you fire it up. I've also included the current playlist feature I've been working on. The screenshot on the site shows what to expect. It's pretty basic - it lists the currently queued up tracks and allows you to jump about them via double-clicking. It's very much work-in-progress, and should get a bit slicker in future releases.. Oh, and another feature's the little 'M's in the album list and playlist.. They show the rough file-types for the item.. For an album containing flac files, you should get an 'F' instead of an 'M', and for oggs, you'd get an 'O', etc.. Any problems, etc, give us a shout..

Thanks for the feedback Matt.. I'll fix the play problem with the next build.. Looks like a problem caused by older server builds (and my dodgy c sharp code).. I tend to use/test on a week-old nightly 6.2, and occasionally on 5.4.. The Name and Date tabs control the sort order of the list. Name sorts alphabetically by the text in the list, and Date sorts by the folder's date. Theory is that newly added (or moved) music will appear at the end of the list if sorted by date. Point taken about filtering non-music files. Reckon it needs a couple of display modes - 'music' and 'chuff' ? :-) In chuff mode it could do something useful when double-clicking too - rather than trying to queue jpg and nfo files and taking out the server.. :-) Add mode ?

Re: [slim] Re: Moose 0.05
Ok.. I've just put a new build of Moose up.. * Should hopefully fix the problems people are having with the Play button. * Added a 'music-only mode' in the songs list, which is currently the default. If you want to see ALL the files as before, right click the songs list and it'll toggle between the two modes. * CTRL+double-clicking on any list will now peform an 'add to playlist' rather than a 'play'. * Probably some other stuff too.. I think the year feature in the now playing dialog is new.. Not sure..

[slim] Re: Moose 0.05
I have to confess I am yet to re-test the Moose as I have just reconfigured my setup and moved all my music and slimserver to a new HTPC in the attic. This has been a pain to setup and I have not yet got the courage to move all the music to a shared folder so I can access it from my laptop. I was using 6.1 but with the new computer I have switched to 6.2 so it should be interesting to see how it goes. As soon as the missus has stopped watching Friends for the Nth time I will be able to give it a go and let you know how I get on. -- mattybain Stewie: Well, Well mother we meet again.

Okay she has finished. Firstly add to playlist does indeed work correctly, however I now get a error message (below) if I simply want to play the track (i.e. click on play and not add). I am not sure what the difference between Name and Date tabs are above the list of artist name. Clicking on Name brings up some weird album names as artists, clicking on Date is a more sensible list. Would it be possible to only show music files at the bottom and not all the other chuff such as album art etc. Could you also bring the Add button closer to the list of songs or have a right click or button shortcut to add it. For me simply clicking on the song should add rather than play, as this is what I would be doing the most. Apart from these little gripes it is great, I love the quickness and simplicity of it and also the fact you can click on the time bar to skip to that place in the song.

Re: [slim] Re: Moose 0.05
Hi Matt, Sorry for not replying sooner.. Did you get any further with your add to playlist issue ? I know the add button was broken in the previous build (0.03), but I made some changes which fixed it on 6.2.. Possibly it's still broken on older servers ? Which server build are you running ?

Moose keeps saying that An operation was attepmted on something that isn't a socket. Ah, now this sounds like it could be either the wrong server IP / Port in the options, or more likely the wrong username password. If you're server's not password-ed, make sure both these fields are blank in the options. Also, if your MAC address has letters in, it might be worth making sure they're lower-case. I noticed the cli doesnt like upper-case MAC addresses, so I convert them to lowercase internally. I may have missed one or two.. Failing that, it could be a firewall issue.. The error basically means it couldnt initiate a telnet session with the server.

I gave it a brief run last night and as far as I got playing with it it looked great, very responsive just what I was after, especially being able to skip to a place on the song with one click of the mouse. However I couldn't seem to get the add to playlist function to work. I could double click on a song and get that playing but it wouldn't add. I will play around with it a bit more over the weekend and report back in more detail. My system is Windows XP , Athlon XP2.6, 1gb RAM.

Hi, I downloaded the latest version from the link, but can't seem to play any songs. Moose scans my music collection on a separate server okay but doesn't actually play any of the tracks. I have tried to log into Slimserver with both the CLI and Web UI, but no result. Moose keeps saying that An operation was attepmted on something that isn't a socket. Is there some glaring mistake I'm making? Any help would be appreciated. Music in WMA Lossless, Windows XP Pro, Slimserver 6.1.1 running over LAN.
