Please take a look when you have a chance. Thanks, David I just tested it in my own setup and it works perfect here. From the log file it looks like it gives up after 1 second, I suppose you have set the radio timeout higher than that ? Maybe SqueezeCenter needs to be restarted for the changes to take effect ? Are you sure your SqueezeCenter computer actually have internet access ? Are there any other network specific settings ? As an example, have you configured SqueezeCenter to go through a web proxy in "SqueezeCenter Settings/Network" ? If that's the case it might be a problem because I don't think Custom Scan at the moment will use the proxy setting. Are you playing music at the same time as you perform the scanning ? Maybe that can cause problem ? Is there some way you can try to get the following url in a web browser from the computer you are running SqueezeCenter on ?

Using VLC player in windows it's possible to connect to the slimserver ... this plays whatever selection is set in SS as a network stream. I've tried with some other stations and they play okay. In SS there's an option to use Softsqueeze (as a java applet in the browser). This does play the BBC streams. So, the BBC streams play on one application but not another.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] AlienBBC with SC7 on Ubuntu not happy :-(
No worries guys, I've sorted this now. I got a little suspicious over the mention of FLC codecs in the log, I did a little more testing and discovered other stream formats (e.g. Virgin) were using MP3 and working. I did a little digging in /usr/share/squeezecentre/Bin there's an i386-linux folder in there with some binaries for flac, alac, sox etc. I tried running the flac in there and got a file not found error - odd, but I think that's because this is a 32 bit binary and I'm running a 64 bit O/S. So, I overwrote the flac file in i386-linux with the 64 bit version in /usr/bin/flac and now the BBC streams play properly. Hurrah! I guess this might help others running 64bit O/S's, but perhaps the package is broken since it shouldn't have installed 32 bit binaries really. Also, is there a better/cleaner way to relace/update these addon programs?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: SqueezeCenter 7.0 beta versions of my plugins
Erland, could it be something in your code causes some race conditions? I just tried the new plugins on my svn installation and I was seeing the following: When I first started SC, CustomBrowse showed up under Extras (in iPeng) with the default Albums etc. Menus removed. Everything worked fine for a few minutes then I had what I would describe as a complete crash (of SC). The log only has entries about problems to connect to iTunes, iTunes DID crash over this too, so maybe it has nothing to do with your plugins, but: After I restarted the server two times I got it up and running and now the CustomBrowse and the regular menus are in the right places. Since we are seeing timeouts in different plugins there might also be a race condition in whatever starts the plugins on the server side so maybe it's not a plugin issue at all... Will post under beta, too. -- pippin --- see iPeng at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39026 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

I don't think there is any idea to keep trying as long as you get these timeout messages. You could try to increase the "Radio Station Timeout" parameter in "SqueezeCenter Settings/Network" and see if it makes any difference. It could be that the LastFM calls takes a bit long for the default timeout which is set to 5 seconds. It's a known limitation that the SqueezeCenter web interface will be unusable during the process, so that is something you just will have to accept. There is currently no easy way I can solve this issue with the web interface during the LastFM scanning process. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39026 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: SqueezeCenter 7.0 beta versions of my plugins
Hi Erland, I've just installed your plugins for the first time with SB7 (I used it for quite a while with 6.5). I'm getting alot of timeout messages during the scan for Last.FM data and I wonder if it isn't something beyond the slowness of the process. I have yet to complete this stage and when I woke up this morning after a full night of processing, I couldn't access Squeeze via the web interface (IE cannot display the web page). I cleared, re-ran and this afternoon the same thing happened. I am using a fairly recent (3 nights ago) version on Win XP. I have attached my log (but deleted many thousands of the repetitive timeout warnings (every 1.5 seconds?) leaving a sample of what has occured in the last two days. Any ideas?

There's generally two solutions to this: The way I do it, is to provide a "homeString" for the button text and a "goHomeURI" for the URI to return to. "storeReturnPage" is for NowPlaying to know where to return to. This has two reasons: MobileSafari has a bug that sometimes prevents history from working and there may be plugins that use a "call-through" page to start a stream or load something and then history.back would just get you back there, so storeReturnPage saves the URI to go back to. For Browse pages there's also "storeReturnLevel", also with no parameters, that stores the hierarchy, level and start parameters (including values) so that it can go back up the right path. Please note: You will still have to provide the URL for yourself, only the start parameter is stored. I see that you are using different parameters. If you like, suggest a logic that you want supported by this function. I've also been planning to automatically parse pwd_list for return items in pageheader.html. Would that help? I do have that logic in xmlbrowser but never included it in pageheader.html, but I can do that. I also experiment with including pageHeaderInfo there, displayed as an "anchor" row. Could you make use of that? I see that you sometimes have non-empty pageHeaderInfo's that only contain whitespace. These would generate a few erroneous (pixel) lines, though. > > Have you done any configuration changes in Custom Browse on one of the > installations that could make the difference ? > As an example, if you have changed the definition of the Albums menu so > it doesn't sort by album name it won't show the alphabet bar, instead > you will get a standard horizontal number page bar. > I'm seeing this issue with "Albums" only.

The Win/Linux thing is only the server. I can confirm that space is the issue since I do have one Album with too long a name in the Display (Beethoven's Sympho...) that wraps around. The difference between the installations regarding THIS issue is different libraries. I also notived, that the two icons are not perfectly aligned vertically I believe due to different icon sizes (27x29 for the "+" vs. 25x27 for the "M"). -- pippin --- see iPeng at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39026 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

I upgraded and realized that I had modified two other things to make this date format work properly. By default it doesn't quite fit in the display and gets truncated on the right hand side. So, here's a patch that shows the minor changes I had to make to get it to fit. Any chance of something like this making it into the release? Maybe a new option for specifying the time/date separator character instead of always requiring the dash?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] AudioReview and Biography for new remote controls ?
Michael, here's the modified skins. Now we've got two alternatives: either I distribute those with the next version of iPeng or you update the plugins. If you update the skins it would be nice, if you could register the plugins under "additionalLinks.pluginsiPeng", in this case they would automatically work with iPeng from version 0.3 on. Otherwise I would use add them to the link table with the next version. If you want to make a common html file for iPeng and the defualt skin, I think that's possible, but only with changes in the plugin code: you would have to use the default iPeng classes instead of the manually defined CSS styles in the code. I cannot just override the default values since, as you can see from the differences between the two files, depending on content they have to look different to look good. What I did, in short: Both plugins: - Wrap the content into the contencontainer div - I had to do this manually for Biography since the floating table for artwork for some reason broke the container. Didn't happen for Album Review but I didn't do too much testing. - Add different color for text links. This is the only application for iPeng so far where free text with links is being used. Normal iPeng links are hidden since with iPeng you typically can click everything and showing links would break the iPhone style guide. - add iPhone-style links for the link lists (blue bar). Had to use the half-block version for AlbumReview lists since the link does not span the whole item there. - break the link table apart for Biography to make one list. If you want to use them right now, replace iPeng's home.html with the one attached. +---+ |Filename: home.zip | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4354| +---+ -- pippin --- see iPeng at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43713 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
