Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
The iPad finally got released in my country so I got it for an enhanced iPeng experience, and iPeng delivered as usual! Great work. But I do miss the ability of iPeng on iPhone/iPod Touch to play an album by just clicking the album art. One quick question: I would like the iPad to stay awake while in the charger stand when iPeng is on the Now Playing screen. I know I can go to iPeng options and set this and then revert to the Now Playing screen, and I know that I in the iPad options can set the iPad to never autolock. But both these settings will drain the battery when the iPad is not charging. Is there a way to get the iPad to stay awake only when it is connected to the charger? If not, would you consider adding a button on the Now Playing screen to toggle the stay awake option? (Sorry if this has been asked before or if it is an iPad issue.) -- vagskal 2 x SB3 (wired), Receiver (wired), Boom (wireless), Controller, iPeng on iPhone 4, muso on remote computer running Win 7 | 7.5.2 on Win XP vagskal's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20778 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

[SlimDevices: Plugins] USB external hard drive for VortexBox Applicance...advice needed
Hi. I recently purchased a 1TB VortexBox Appliance (VBA). Things are are working fine, and it's time for me to begin thinking seriously about purchasing/using an external drive to backup the files stored on the VBA. I am considering purchasing a WD Elements Desktop USB 2.0 external hard drive. For those of you who already own a VBA and are successfully backing it up (garym, are you out there?), I have a couple of questions: 1. What USB external hard drive are you using? 2. If I click on the Backup icon on the VBA GUI, I'm instructed to Please attach your USB drive to your VortexBox. Once your drive is attached you can reload this page by clicking on the backup icon. Is backing up really as simple as plugging a new out-of-the-box USB hard drive into the VBA and following these instructions?

It seems to imply that you can still create a startup item, but that launchd is preferred. And it gives further references. The real problem is that a fresh installation of 10.6 will not contain a StartupItems folder, so it would need to be created. I've been playing with the script, trying using StartupItems and trying (using Lingon) creating a launchd item. I've almost certainly done something wrong, as I can see (from Activity Monitor) that sleepwatcher is running, but there's no log. As I haven't switched off the way I am currently preventing sleep, I've no idea if the script is working. I won't have time for a while to do much further checking.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
I've searched this thread and the Ipeng manual but haven't been able to find an answer to a specific setup question, hopefully someone here could confirm if what I'm planning is possible. With the Squeezebox Duet it's possible to use the wireless controller in bridged mode, where there is no wireless network available... I'm wondering if this bridged connection mode is also possible with an Ipod touch running Ipeng, to control a transporter which is only connected via a wired network. I checked in the Ipeng manual and it only mentions searching for a server on the wireless network, but nothing about using a bridged connection via the players wireless system to talk to the server via the wired network. Is this possible? Thanks for any advice. -- ukhc ukhc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41962 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Beta version of SvrPowerControl
Would all this be easier if ReallyPreventStandby had a CLI request
like:
reallypreventstandby isidle
..returning 1 for yes and 0 for no?
I would think that that would make the script that SleepWatcher has to
execute much simpler...something along the lines of:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
SBSHOST=127.0.0.1
CLIPORT=9090
function SBSIsIdle {
nc $SBSHOST $CLIPORT EOF0
reallypreventstandby isidle
exit
EOF0
}
ISIDLE=`SBSIsIdle`
if [ $ISIDLE == 1 ]
then
echo 'Idle..'
echo $ISIDLE
exit 0
else
echo 'Not idle..'
echo $ISIDLE
exit 1
fi
This way ReallyPreventStandby can do all the heavy lifting: monitoring
player states, keeping track of the idle time-out, watching for library
rescans, watching for firmware updates, etc, etc.
Probably the script will still need to use telnet and expect rather
than nc since I don't see any way to make nc work with the 'login' CLI
request.

danco;593840 Wrote: I've almost certainly done something wrong, as I can see (from Activity Monitor) that sleepwatcher is running, but there's no log. As I haven't switched off the way I am currently preventing sleep, I've no idea if the script is working. A thought: If your existing method is already running, then my guess is that this script will rarely be called. If you remove the --quiet option from the start up item then the script will become distinctly chattier, and will make log entries each time the system sleeper calls it. You would, then, see a log entry when the system does eventually sleep. At present I don't think you will. i.e. edit the following line in the file Squeezebox_DenySleep: sudo -H -u $USER_TO_RUN /usr/local/sbin/sleepwatcher -d -V -a/Library/StartupItems/Squeezebox_DenySleep/sbplayers_inactive --quiet 1$HOME/Library/Logs/Squeezebox_DenySleep.log 21 to become: sudo -H -u $USER_TO_RUN /usr/local/sbin/sleepwatcher -d -V -a/Library/StartupItems/Squeezebox_DenySleep/sbplayers_inactive 1$HOME/Library/Logs/Squeezebox_DenySleep.log 21 Another thought: One might also create a script suitable for use as a login item, rather than a system start up item. I'll give that some thought as well as a launchd item. Ideally one only wants to run the task when the server itself is running. Personally, I start the server at boot because I use it without actually being logged in. -- mrw mrw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38299 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] squeezecast questions
I downloaded and installed the app tonight. It was easy to setup and connected to my server very easily. I verified that it does play FLAC natively and gaplessly!! I'm very happy with the app. There is obviously still some work to be done, but in general it works well!! Once it is streaming, it's stable. I found I had to start it playing from within the squeezecast app and then take over control via iPeng, otherwise the connection with the server would be lost. Not a big deal once you understand that. Once the stream is going, I can switch albums very easily. Pausing and resuming playback seems to loose the server connection too. What really impressed me was that while squeezecast was playing, it didn't skip a beat as I checked my email, facebook, and surfed the internet with safari. I look froward to future updates to this app. -- maggior Rich - Setup: 2 SB3s, 4 Booms, 1 Duet, 1 Receiver, 1 Touch, iPeng on iPod Touch.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
I'm not sure (will send you a longer e-mail on this tomorrow). There are people here on the forum that have succeeded in doing this. I myself have not. You somehow have to make sure you find your Receiver's network and connect the iPod to it and then also make sure it routes the communication to the IP address of your server.

Yes, exactly. I've updated ReallyPreventStandby with the proposed CLI code. You can experiment with it by adding http://srvrpowerctrl.googlecode.com/svn/beta.xml to the Additional Repositories on the SBS Settings-Plugins page. Then install ReallyPreventStandby BETA. Or, alternately, directly download the beta version from http://srvrpowerctrl.googlecode.com/svn/ReallyPreventStandby_beta.zip and manually install the plugin. On OSX, go into the ReallyPreventStandby settings page and put in some kind of innocuous command for the Inhibit standby command..something like ls -l. That will keep the plugin from doing anything other than keeping track of whether or not SBS is really idle. Then you can test with the: reallypreventstandby isidle ..cli request. While you're testing, you can edit the ReallyPreventStandby/Plugin.pm file and change the INTERVAL value on line 58 to a smaller number, say 2. That way, rather than taking 20 minutes (60*20) to go from not-idle to idle, it will go to idle in 2*20 seconds. I'm working on an OSX sleep-inhibit app that can be called directly from the plugin. We'll see what progress I make towards that and if I can make it so it doesn't share the same defects as jiggler caffeine...i.e. keeps the monitor on when it doesn't need to be. On linux with gnome, ReallyPreventStandby calls gsession-inhibit, a small utility that I wrote that should prevent sleep. The C source code is included with the plugin. To use this app, you'll need to run the /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins/ReallyPreventStandby/bin/unix/debian-install.sh script. All that script does is update the /etc/sudoers file so that the squeezeboxserver user has permission to execute gsession-inhibit under the currently loged in gnome user via sudo -u username. Finally, mrw, you might want to look at modifying your SleepWatcher script so that it also does a CLI call to SrvrPowerCtrl. I've added a new CLI request to that plugin too. Calling: srvrpowerctrl setwakealarm ..will cause SrvrPowerCtrl to schedule a system wakeup in order to service any pending alarms. If your SleepWatcher script determines that the system SHOULD sleep, then it could call srvrpowerctrl setwakealarm to force SrvrPowerCtrl to schedule the next wakeup. -- gharris999 gharris999's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=115 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
