Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spotify Premium Plugin (Beta)
Everything about this plug-in is superb, just one minor frustration. Have just invested in a controller to go with my boom. I want to use this to provide an alternative source for playing either with headphones or via aux socket through a pace DAB radio. This works perfectly with music stored on the PC and with BBCiplayer but not with Spotify plug-in. I have seen a passing mention of this earlier in the thread. Is there an insurmountable technical reason why Spotify doesn't play on controller?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Using multiple libraries - I'm Lost in technical possibilities
We bought a Touch this weekend and out-of-the-box everything is working very well in combination with a WHS server running 7.5.1 and three remotes: the standard remote, the Controller and iPeng.. However, after the first few hours, we wanted more! The music on the server is organized in different main folders for different music so everybody can maintain it's own music... ie: \\server\Music\MusicA \\server\Music\MusicB etc. Now, all I want to accomplish is that I can dynamically choose the library, and from that point on, all selections, browsing, random play etc. is using the selected library. So I tried to use the Multi-library (and custom browse) add-in to create two libraries for MusicA and MusicB folder. Using the web-interface, I can see that both libraries contain songs. I also managed to have them listed in the menu's on both the Controller / Touch and iPeng. So the configuration looks like this: ie: \\server\Music\MusicA --- Library MusicA in menu Choose Library \\server\Music\MusicB --- Library MusicB in menu Choose Library etc. ...but for some reason, I'm still seeing the complete Music folder after I select one of the libraries. Also it's not clear to me what the default iPeng buttons for Artist, Album etc. do in this case: I would expect them to use the selected library, but I get the idea they don't... After reading the specific Wiki's about Multi-Library, Custom-Browse, Custom-Skip and examples (Kids room) I'm completely lost in *technical possibilities*, while searching for a *functional solution* for this simple problem. I hope someone can help me with setting up this configuration! -- Mars Warrior Mars Warrior's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31857 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80436 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

The Plugin settings page info just checks that an mplayer is installed - it does not verify location or version. I don't have an OSX system so I can only make gueeses as to get it working. You have a choice - either 1. Uninstall current mplayer and then install an official (and probably older) build of mplayer. However the mplayer developers were very bad at building OSX builds so this may be difficult. This may be an alternative site http://haque.net/software/mplayer/mplayerosx/builds/ 2. Change the realmplayer.sh file to look for the mplayer executable on your system. I suggest doing 2 since the mplayer you have seems to be able to play RealAudio from a Terminal window. First - determine the full path of the mplayer executable (not the folder) - In a Terminal window you could try the following commands (these are guesses). which mplayer or where mplayer Bpa, I am having the same problem as the OP on a Mac mini using OSX 10.6 with an Intel processor. The only difference is that I installed the older version of mplayer that you recommended. It is installed in the path expected by realplayer.sh for an Intel CPU, namely: i386 processor /Applications/MPlayer OSX.app/Contents/Resources/External_Binaries/mplayer.app/Contents/MacOS/mplayer The playreal plugin settings show mplayer to be installed and the correct file types are activated, but when I try to stream the PHC URL you gave in an earlier post via Tune in URL, I get no audio. The SB3 shows as connecting although the web UI looks to be streaming normally. The URL plays with no problem through the mplayer GUI. I have not tried to stream the URL via a command line as you request the OP to do because, like him, I am confused whether you mean a SBS or OSX one. Regardless, I don't know the command structure for either method. I agree with your assessment that playreal can't find mplayer despite, in my case, it being exactly where it should be. I notice in the preamble to the else/if construct that the uname is set to Darwin which is not my user name or the name of my computer. Could this be the problem? Anyway, in option 2 of the above quote it looks like you were going to tell the OP how to alter realplayer.sh once you determined where his mplayer application was located. Since mine is known, I would appreciate your help in doing this. -- raglencross raglencross's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7239 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79577 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Spotify Premium Plugin (Beta)
First, I'm sorry, but I've not read through all 50+ pages here. I was extremely happy to find out about this plugin, but I can't really get it to work. I was running some 7.5.1 beta, but installed 7.5.1 release now just to see if that made any difference. However, when the plugin is active I'm mostly unable to even start SbS, it starts up, starts MySQL and the spotifyd then spotifyd dies or quits and then the rest of the processes follow. I am running everything as a service on Windows 2008 x64 with a limited access user account. However, if I let things start up after a full Windows reboot it mostly succeed in starting SbS and keep it running. So, some kind of timing issues or something there. As for when everything is running, I do get the Spotify menu, I do get my play lists, but I cannot get anything to play.

If you are talking about the Music Folder browse menu it doesn't
support the multi library concept. If configured correctly, you should
get a browse menu for each library which contains sub menus for
Artists, Albums, Genres, Years and the other menus you have
checked when configuring the library in the Multi Library plugin
interface.
To verify that the library configuration is correct, you can look in
the Multi Library web interface and see if Number of songs indication
between each library is correct.
Mars Warrior;561708 Wrote:

Album etc. do in this case: I would expect them to use the selected

Default iPeng buttons works towards the whole library, not the sub
libraries defined in the Multi Library plugin. If I remember correctly,
I think you can configure iPeng and replace the bottom toolbar buttons
with the corresponding menus from the Multi Library plugin. This is
done by going to More and then hitting the Edit button in iPeng and
drag/drop icons to the toolbar. If I remember correctly, this is only
possible for top level Custom Browse menus. So to show the relevant
icons, you might need to goto the Custom Browse settings page and enter
the Enabled menus section and check the Show in browse and home menu
option for the relevant menus. You probably also want to adjust the
names for these menus calling them AlbumsA and AlbumsB to be able
to see the difference in iPeng when dragging them to the toolbar. The
menu names are changed in the Custom Browse settings section called
Manage menus.
However, if using iPeng I think you are going to have a problem. I
don't think it's possible to select the active library through the
iPeng interface, I never got around to implement that. You will have to
configure one toolbar icon to work towards MusicA Albums and another one
to works towards MusicB Albums, due to this you will only be able to
have 2 toolbar buttons per library. An alternative to this would be to
just add the top level Libraries menu to the iPeng toolbar.
Theoretically, it would be possible to enhance the Multi Library plugin
so it was possible to select the active library through iPeng. When this
functionality exists, it's possible to manually configure Albums,
Artists, Genres, Years menus in Custom Browse so a menu only shows
music from the active library. However, as mentioned above, currently
you can only select the active library through the web interface or
through a Boom, Transporter, Classic player so I don't think this will
work for you if iPeng is your main controller.
Multi Library plugin is a bit of a hack due to limited integration
possibilities in Squeezebox Server and it currently doesn't work very
good together with the Touch, Radio and Controller due to some bugs and
limitations in the Squeezebox Server software. Logitech had some plans
to implement support for multiple libraries in the core product, so
until they give us some more information about these plans I'm not sure
it's worth adding more features to the current Multi Library plugin.
However, if you really want the active libraries concept, give it a
try and temporarily change active library through the web interface and
let me know if you are satisfied with the functionality. If you are
satisfied with it, I can take a look if it would be possible to do some
simple addition to make it possible to select active library through
iPeng.
