Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] SvrPowerControl problem
Care to share with us your opinion of Britain's National Health system? Better than some countries, but not many ;-) It's getting worse all the time, as the population ages. But I think it's worse because we keep letting in migrants who come for the freebies. So the system is stretched. My whole family has been in an uproar this past week when it was looking like my mother had inadvertently canceled their private health insurance just at the moment when my father had a stroke. I'm sorry to hear that :-( Hope everything works out okay for your family in the end. ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Alien BBC - fails on Slimp3
What does this tell us? Does this point us towards a better solution? Not sure except SlimMP3 is treated special. In the logs there is a buffer threshold is shown to be 65535. I odn't have a SlimMP3 but I have tried using a bufferThreshold routine) to get buffer this low and I cannot. There are two possibilities. 1. AlienBBC timing has too long a startup for SlIMP3 2. The 65535 threshold is somehow blocking with flow control in the mplayer-lame chain. Perhaps socketwrapper is dying or killing off the chain (it does that if no data movement). This could be tested if you run SC from a command prompt window and player.source set to DEBUG - this will generate and show message from socketwrapper. Otherwise I think only a developer with slimp3 can investigate further. I think user awy might be one to ask as he also was responsible for the buffer threshold stuff. The issues is probably no noticed on non Windows platforms since bit rate limiting works and/or no socketwrapper. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58441 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Ok, thanks a million for all your help. Was great to have such instant responses and things to try. I will try the startup from the command line. I just open a command window in the SC root directory and then run the .exe? I don't need any command line parameters? I then just set the debug level and the socketwrapper debug will come in the command line window or will it get written to the log file that I can get via the web interface? -- ashimmin ashimmin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6911 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58441 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

I think you will need to change directory to the SC server first and then run squeezecenter.exe Make sure you change the command window size (use menu from icon in top left hand corner of command window) to something like 300 wide and 3000 long - that way you will save a lot of message. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58441 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Trackstat - Unrate Album
Sometimes in my infinite stupidity I accidentally give an album a rating I didn't intend to. The only way I have found to correct this is to unrate each track on the album. Is there an easier way to unrate or adjust the rating on an entire album? If not, may I suggest using the same method that is used to rate the album?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Find Cover Art - When does it update?
I think you have a number of issues which needs to be corrected. There are 2 parts to getting art displayed. 1. Ensuring art is in a location and named in a manner that SC expects. 2. Ensuring the displaying devices displays the up to date art and not a cached image (and the missing art image is also a cached image) I think your main problem is point 1 while you have been dealing with point 2. The following are some rules about Artwork. * The only way to be sure SC database knowledge of cover art is really up to date is to do a Wipe and Rescan. Addition of artwork incrementally and then browsing to a folder will ensure the artwork is added to the database but is not always reliable at getting the new image displayed. *Artwork embedded in a track is always used. * If the settings in SC WebUI Settings/Advanced/Formatting as Artwork and Artwork Folder are blank then SC will check for the files names below in the folder where SC finds a track. The artwork in the folder will then be associated with all the tracks in the folder. For full size artwork the search order is 1. cover.jpg, cover.gif, 2. folder.jpg, folder.gif, 3. album.jpg, album.gif, 4. thumb.jpg, thumb.gif, 5. albumartsmall.jpg, albumartsmall.gif Some variations of upper and lower case but not mixed (e.g. jpg or JPG but not Jpg ) are supported but best practice is always use lower case. * If the settings in SC WebUI Settings/Advanced/Formatting as Artwork is *not* blank (i.e. a patterns has been defined such as %ARTIST-ALBUM.jpg) - then (I think not 100% sure) SC will first look in the Art Folder for pattern matched filenames, if no success then in track directory for pattern matched file name and then failing that the usual cover names. In your setup I think you have asked FindArt to save artwork in a special folder. I intended this option was intended for use where the Music folder is write protected such that SC cannot write and so to save art another folder is needed. Theintention was rhat the user could then copy and rname the file afterward to its final destination. As FindArt can save multiple art files in this directory a unique name is generated. The filename are generated from some of the album details and a counter - FindArt does *not* use SC's Artwork setting to create the name nor does FinaArt use SC's Artwork Folder setting as the destination folder . Temporary files have name with random letters but these should be deleted unless there was an error which prevent it being renamed to a recognisable file name. Since you have selected to save cover files - the temporary files and the saved cover files are all in the same directory. Since you have single tracks in folders you would be best embedding the art in the track. An alternative would be to define a Artwork pattern which SC can use to derive the cover art filename from the track file folder name or tags in the track It will probably be helpful to read the Wiki entry even though it is a bit out of date - http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Album_Artwork -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62119 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

[SlimDevices: Plugins] SB Boom - Spoiled Grandma mode (multiple screensavers)
I have now a Boom on my own again, that's great. Having learnt to appreciate SaverSwitcher on my SB3 (alternating analog VU and now playing.) I want to use it on the Boom to alternate Date and Now Playing. I have a tendency to let the alarms play for too long, so a regular reminder of the current time will help. I also want to use the knob for volume at all times, and I can get this from ContextMenu. I like very much the ability to navigate, do a long press on the knob, see what's playing and rotate for volume, then press again and get back to my original position in the navigation history. The Boom has a small screen, I prefer saving potentially long treks (wait for scrolling to kick-in to see the full item name) in the menu hierarchy. There is an issue when using both, though: - SaverSwitcher offers Jump to Now Playing. So when it kicks in, I lose my position in the menu hierarchy when I press the knob a second time to get out of Grandma mode. - I hacked the plugin to allow screensaver, which was aliased to playlist. In this case, I do not lose my position in the menu when I come out of Grandma mode. But I need to press the knob as many times as SaverSwitcher did alternate between Date and Now Playing. Another minor issue is that entering Grandma mode now displays either now playing or the current date, an info that has little relation with music volume. I like the idea of alternating Date and Now playing on the Boom. Is it possible to do this in conjunction with Grandma mode ? (I'm asking because I know anything is possible, here... I love very much my setup as it is, anyway.) -- epoch1970 epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62148 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
