Yes that looks great!

[SlimDevices: Plugins] AlienBBC on FreeBSD hints

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Android / G1 idea
So Let's say we were to go for Option 2, and base it on the TuneRemote app (which is GPL). Next step is to get documentation for the protocol used by the SC7 web UI and the server. I presume this is basic HTTP stuff, and is documented nicely somewhere! (Sorry, haven't had a chance to look into SC internals yet... ;) First step is probably to install the Android SDK which includes a G1 emulator for your PC.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Best for viewing classical music seperately
Hi folks, It has been a while. My lack of posting is actually a tribute to how well my Squeezebox is working. I do have a question though. I am interested in thoughts on the 'best' way to treat classical music separately from all other genres. I know it's an old question and my searches have found some tools, such as Moose, in order to do this but I remain unsure as to what is the best method. Essentially, I want to exclude classical from my main list so it does not come up during listening to all randomized. I enjoy all forms of music but find classical just doesn't fit in when randomly playing other genres. Also, when browsing the classical list, I'd like to be able to do it by fields other than artist. I won't get into the naming convention dilemma for classical music as I mostly have that settled for myself. Mostly... In the spirit of helping oneself before asking questions, I'm going to download Moose tonight to try it out first but all advice on plug ins and methods of setting them up for this need would be greatly appreciated. -- Murph Murph's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=59328 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Browse Issue: Ratings
At the moment there isn't any good way to use the rating information scanned with the Rating Tag scanning module unless you check the Write ratings to slimserver option in the Rating Tag scanning module settings. If this option is checked the MediaMonkey ratings will overwrite any ratings in SqueezeCenter and this also results in the the standard Ratings menu or menu template included with Custom Browse. If you don't want to do this, you will need to do as you have already done but you will need to select the Customize configuration option when creating the menu. After this you will need to replace 'customtag' with 'ratingtag' everywhere in the menu configuration XML. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) 'My download page' (http://erland.isaksson.info/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/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=59325 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

It might also be possible to try to set the Max rating value parameter for the Rating Tag scanning module to something like 2000, this should result in that you get ratings between 1-5 in the menu you just created. However, please note that this will result in that ratings in Song Info page and other places are shown as 2/100 instead of 20/100, so I would suggest that you install TrackStat instead. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) 'My download page' (http://erland.isaksson.info/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/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=59325 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
