Not easily. But if you enable debug logging for control.command, then
you'd see what is being used internally. A Spotty search would result in
this:


Code:

[18-07-03 06:59:00.1751] Slim::Control::Request::dump (2339) Request: Query 
[99:99:99:99:99->spotty items] from /abcd/slim/request|17||abcd  (Dispatchable)
  [18-07-03 06:59:00.1753] Slim::Control::Request::dump (2341)Param: 
[search] = [here comes your search term]
  [18-07-03 06:59:00.1755] Slim::Control::Request::dump (2341)Param: 
[useContextMenu] = [1]
  [18-07-03 06:59:00.1756] Slim::Control::Request::dump (2341)Param: 
[_index] = [0]
  [18-07-03 06:59:00.1757] Slim::Control::Request::dump (2341)Param: [menu] 
= [spotty]
  [18-07-03 06:59:00.1758] Slim::Control::Request::dump (2341)Param: 
[item_id] = [0.0]
  [18-07-03 06:59:00.1761] Slim::Control::Request::dump (2341)Param: 
[_quantity] = [200]
  



Those items are "indexed" by the navigation tree. 0.0 would be the first
menu item's sub-menu - which is search. But that would return you a menu
again

If you were implementing LMS side code, then you could probably call
Spotty code directly - ugly, but possible.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 2.3.0 - Spotify Connect for your Squeezebox

2018-07-02 Thread Michael Herger

EDIT: Nevermind. Just noticed I had the 'Volume control' option set to
'volume controls adjust outputs' (don't know why...). If I set it to
'output level is fixed at 100%' The output volume stays at 100% when
using Connect, although the indicator in the web interface does sync.


Makes sense (except for the indicator). I'm still looking into disabling 
volume sync for this case, as it's overhead. And you can probably ask 
anyone who's tried to have a local application represent LMS' volume how 
messy this can be :-)

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 2.3.0 - Spotify Connect for your Squeezebox

2018-07-02 Thread ynot1234567890


Hi, I'm putting together a voice activated front-end for LMS and using
Home Assistant as a middle man to direct queries, launch scripts and
assemble commands for use with the LMS.  To that end, is there a method
available using the CLI port 9090 to access the search features of
spotty.  Ultimately I would like to return a query of artist, album or
tacks to queue to a LMS player.  So far local searches seem to work
pretty well with the local data on LMS.

Any help or pointers is appreciated.  Thanks, Ynot.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ANNOUNCE: AirPlay Bridge = integrate AirPlay devices with LMS (squeeze2raop)

2018-07-02 Thread Christian Schoepplein
Hi,

I am still trying to use my new Aries G2 player from Auralic with LMS. The UPNP 
bridge did not work so another solution would be to use the player via airplay.

The following setup is working so far with all limitations given by airplay:

- I have installed SqueezeLite on my Mac Book, the player shows up in LMS
- Also I have installed AirFoul on my Mac Book. With AirFoul you can stream any 
sound from an app on the Mac Book to a device which is able to act as a airplay 
receiver.

The disatvantage with this setup is that the Mac Book has to be running if I 
want to use the Auralic player with LMS. So my question is if it would be 
possible to build a rao2squeeze bridge for LMS? Have you ever thought about 
that?

Cheers,

  Schoepp

That wouldn't work for me. I normally have my Touch set to 100% but I
still sometimes adjust the volume. I would rather not have to leave my
chair to turn the amplifier volume control. [emoji3]

That would be nice. Maybe set the default according to what is set in de
playersettings? If 'Volume control' is set to 'output level is fixed at
100%' make Spotty not sync the volume. Maybe this could be just the
setting Spotty uses without having a separate option. Could be that
someone knows why a separate Spotty option would be useful, but likely
that would just be confusing?

Hmm, looks like the licensing for this is unsuitable too.

Looked at log.

1. Don't play HLS stream on Windows - keep as a "backup" with "DASH >
HLS > MP3 > FlashAAC" - IIRC The plugin "live" URLs only have DASH and
HLS now.
2. If you really want to play HLS streams on Windows install playHLS
whichuses ffmpeg and create favorites - there will be no program info.
3. Low buffer threshold increase the likelihood of rebuffering - so if
you get rebuffering - increase threshold to max.
4. The " Slim::Utils::OS::Win32::getPriorityClass" error is a LMS error
due to changing server priority - IIRC it doesn't work at the moment.
and really wouldn't have made a difference unless you are on a low power
single core single thread system.
5. Assuming you have a good network link, in the UK and with a high
powered LMS server - I think "use highest bitrate DASH stream available"
option may result less rebuffering due to nature of Windows specific
issue. Only relevant to DASH streams.

I am not sure but I think  in Win8 or Win10 MS made a change which
affect LMS transcoding support program socketwrapper.exe.  It is most
noticeable on high end  multicore system with lots of RAM - it is
possible the syste is too fast for the application which was initially
written for a single core prcoessor and now with multi core system there
is a "race hazard" somewhere in the code .

The plugin's HLS implementation uses HTTP 1.0 so each 6sec chunk request
requires a separate TCP connection each with a DNS lookup - this
generates a lot of network traffic which is constant while playing
stream (i.e not a burst) .  This seems to cause problems on Windows
systems possibly due to interaction with Windows caching.  PlayHLS using
ffmpeg and the plugin's DASH implementation both use HTTP 1.1 which
means one TCP connection and then multiple chunks sent on same
connection. 


I do not have Win8 or Win10 system so I cannot verify my theory.
