Are your remote connections just web/stream.mp3? If so, use an Apache reverseproxy setup for remote connections and require authentication in the Apache layer. Or set up a VPN.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Whitebear updated version
I can use Foobar UPnP Controller to choose a SBS player, and see what is playing on that player. I can control the playback position of the current track and control the volume of the player; I can pause playback, or stop playback. But I can't play once stopped, go to previous or next track, or show the playlist. ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

(Such as the 5 >character limit, and the socket error). Okay. I think what would be best is for an enhancement to SBS to allow local connections without authentication. i.e. a mode to allow local connections without authentication, but enforce for remote connectons. I don't know if that is possible, but it sounds like a good idea ;-) I tried the latest version of Whitebear, and indeed I don't get the socket error. However, it doesn't seem to be working still. I assume from your mail that playing music now works with authentication, but may not retrieve artwork? I'm using Foobar2000. I can browse my SBS library through Foobar, but get an error reported by Foobar when I try to play anything. Unable to open item for playback (Unsupported format or corrupted file): "http://192.168.1.2:31415/music?track_id=85651;tgt_fmt=l16"; I stopped SBS to clear the log and restart, and noticed the issue I first reported about multiple error dialogs in Whitebear. I had to kill the process to stop the popups. Phil ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

I didn't have to do anything really. Just followed the figures on the master list as you suggested. The volume ones didn't work, but everything else did! But, as I said, the 'volume' codes that were supposed to be for an Arcam receiver worked fine. Power toggle didn't work either, but On and Off did. I have a vague idea why that might be, but don't really want to go into learning it in that much depth! As for Panno TV, I'll just use the IR software (NoviiMedia) on my iPAQ, which is ace to do that. Can't have everything!

Hi Phil, I have been thinking deeply about this. If you choose to set up Squeezebox Server to require authentication of clients that is your choice. But given your requirement for authentication it is certainly not the role of the middleware (in this case Whitebear) to try to circumvent the authentication scheme by interpolating itself between the client and the server. Therefore I decided that will NOT add such proxy/authentication server capability to Whitebear. If you want your UPnP Control Points to download the artwork (and also MP3 streams) from Squeezebox Server, then you must ensure that the UPnP Control Point client provides the necessary credentials on its own behalf. I have tested it with Windows Media Player, and at least this client does have the capability to provide credentials and authenticate itself against Squeezebox Server. However, I am pretty sure that you will find that some of the UPnP Control Points out there do not have that capability. However, notwithstanding the abopve, I have posted a new version of Whitebear on my web site that fixes the other authentication related issues that you mentioned in your earlier e-mail. (Such as the 5 character limit, and the socket error). -- AndrewFG Regards, AndrewFG http://www.whitebear.ch/mediaserver AndrewFG's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15838 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82399 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Timespeller/MusicInfoSCR time isn't updated on Transporter second display
The spelled time screensaver has been a favourite of mine for a while now. Always gets a smile from visitors. On my new transporter I've set up TIMESPELLER on the second display as the screensaver while playing. However it isn't being updated regularly. It's updated when the track changes but that isn't frequently enough. Same problem when it is the screensaver when stopped, but then I think it is never updated. CURRTIME works OK in both cases though, and I'm happy with that, but I wondered if anyone had time to take a quick look to see if it's possible to get TIMESPELLER to update frequently on the second screen?
