Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Clock not recognizing Custom tag keywords
There is a "Title formats" setting in "SBS Settings/Plugins/Custom Clock
Helper/Various Settings" where you also have to add
"CUSTOMSCAN_MIXEDTAG_OPUS" to make it work. I think adding
"CUSTOMSCAN_MIXEDTAG_OPUS" should be enough but if that doesn't work
you can try adding "ALBUM - CUSTOMSCAN_MIXEDTAG_OPUS" instead.
If I remember correctly I think the title formats are forwarded to
Custom Clock when the track change, so try changing the track after you
have configured it if it doesn't work. If it still doesn't work, you can
try to restart the Touch/Radio/Controller where Custom Clock is
installed and see if that helps, I don't think this should be needed
but I'm not completely sure.

If you use your won server it just proxies the results but the content is still being generated by MySqueezebox.com If you can add single tracks to a playlist in Rhapsody through the web interface then the web interface is still different from the rest of the SB APIs, you can't do that with a Controller, Radio, Touch or iPeng.

What happens if you tap the first track? Did you read "Help->Quick
Tutorials->Albums/Playlists" in the App? (It's the popup that comes up
automatically when you open an album the first time).
This works like on the iPod app, you have to simply tap the track to
use.
Shuffling generally doesn't work on Rhapsody, it's not an iPeng issue
but a MySqueezebox.com issue

This works for me, albeit the menu is a bit weired, you have to select
"play playlist(1)" in Play mode... Again, have a look at that
tutorial.

Of course you can. It's on the "NowPlaying" overlay that you get when
tapping the big cover. It's like on the Web interface, the icons
replace the "shuffle" and "repeat" icons which in turn are placed where
they are on the iPod app...
You can also use the context menu ("hold" the big cover art). There's
also a tutorial about context menus in "Help" in the app, that one did
also show up automatically.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Clock not recognizing Custom tag keywords
I am trying to make a Now Playing screen for classical music on the Controller, using the Custom Clock applet / Custom Clock Helper. One of the items is a 'tracktext' item, which I want to fill with : ALBUM - CUSTOMSCAN_MIXEDTAG_OPUS, OPUS being a Custom Tag in my FLAC files. I made visible the CUSTOMSCAN_MIXEDTAG_OPUS in 'Various Settings' of Custom Scan. Then selected CUSTOMSCAN_MIXEDTAG_OPUS as TitleFormat in the Interface tab of the server web interface, and set the text field of the tracktext item to ALBUM - CUSTOMSCAN_MIXEDTAG_OPUS. The screensaver does not recognize CUSTOMSCAN_MIXEDTAG_OPUS as a keyword, and just displays it as text. Any idea how I can solve this? I use Custom Clock vs 2.8.3197 on Squeezeboxserver 7.6.0. BTW, to work exactly equivalent to the classical Now Playing screen (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82062), a little more intelligence is needed. I would like to hide the Artist widget, if the artist name is 'No Artist'. And if the item is empty, I want to use the space to show larger artwork. I also noticed that it is still a screensaver in Custom Clock.

I hadn't added the plugin to the Boom's menu, once I did that, I was able to get it to work. Since I don't have the old IR controller I only have use of the play button,but that's fine since I only listen to one audiobook at a time. Unfortunately I can't access this functionality from the controller or add it to the receiver or radio menus. I wish Logitech would add this feature to the controller for all player models. It would be nice to press the select button during a track, and have the option of setting or clearing a bookmark.

I kinda always new this is where we end up on this issue. Bummer. The Duo is pretty pathetic - no very pathetic. I purchased it because the ReadyNAS was the only NAS Logitech supported for SBS - besides at the time, I just didn't know enough about all this and had to trust them on their recommendations and to choose a model I could afford. Oh well. Live and learn. I'm thinking about a work around marking all songs in this playlist with say 4 stars and playing the list through TrackStat. Can you play a Track Stat list shuffled? I haven't really explored it that much. What do you think - or are the limitations of memory and useless NAS devices are still in play in that scenario too. It's hard to believe that a 'stock' SBS can't offer the same functionality as its 'Random Mix" against playlists too. That feature works fine against all 8000+ tracks in my library, feeding up 10 random tracks each time - why can't it do the same against a playlist? Thanks Erland for all your help, I really appreciate it. Someday maybe I'll be able to get a bigger and better NAS set up and then I'll be able to enjoy your products. Thanks again for all your help.

It's not currently possible with Information Screen. As I just
mentioned in the other thread, I think the way to go is to integrate it
with the Custom Clock applet. The reason is that I consider Information
Screen more or less obsolete and replaced by the Custom Clock applet.

This music is shared out by samba. Squeezeboxserver is running on a virtual debian machine in VirtualBox, accessing the music through the samba share on the OpenSolaris host. The virtual machine performs great. Debian was chosen due to the great package system apt, which can install and update squeezeboxserver with a few simple commands. I did try using NFS between host and virtual machine, but i found that samba was ten times faster when doing a full music search.

According to goal number three on the roadmap it is pretty high on the agenda: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Software_Roadmap But the roadmap seems to have been abandoned altogether. It hasn't been updated for a year. To be honest I think the ONLY hope of Grooveshark on the Squeezebox is that a user makes it happen. Logitech were contacted directly by a Groovehark developer who wanted it to happen via bugzilla. They chose not even to answer him. Logitech chooses not to put enough ressources in the product line to get beyond line one of the roadmap: "Stability and performance - No crashers, quick startup, no skips, less memory usage." But hey! It's an open arquitecture. One dedicated user with programming skills can probably make it happen. -- Muele BR Mogens 2 Radios (1 battery), 2 Controllers, 2 Receivers, 1 Squeezeplay.
