I've had a re-think. What I -might- do is add a search button to the
main toolbar (if sufficient space) that when clicked will relpce the
toolbar with a search field - and then perform as-yoi-type searching.
Not 100% sure on whther to use a button or text field - both take the
same number of clicks (as you need to focus the text field), and I feel
the text field would add more "weight"/clutter. I've added an issue on
github so that I don't forget -

I guess all GRUB versions are the same? And the USB disk doesn't use GPT
partitions?
Have you tried re-installing GRUB after Daphile has been installed (boot
with some other distro, mount usb, bind mount /dev,/proc,/sys, chroot
into Daphile, check /etc/default/grub, run grub-install and
grub-mkconfig) ?
At least, you'll be able to see if GRUB complains about something.
Also, have a look at 'this site' (https://www.supergrubdisk.org/) which
has some interesting tools to fix various boot issues.

Well, you probably have already installed grub on it (assuming LXLE uses
it), so you'd only have to modify the existing config to include
Daphile. After that, it'd be read-only.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] LMS-to-UPnP with PlayFI devices

2020-08-25 Thread Gobuleberbu


Hi!  has anyone got any luck connecting a PlayFi device with the UPNP
bridge?  DTS recently enabled DigitalMediaRenderer with version 5.2. 
I've been able to send audio to the speaker directly with SofaPlay on my
mac, or Send to speaker with windows.

So i tried adding it to my LMS ecosystem.  The speaker is a Paradigm
PW600.  I really wished they had enabled airplay on it.  

Right now, the plugin is crashing.  I've disabled gapless since i don't
think it is supported (from the comments), i've disabled higher
frequencies.  

Any idea about what could go wrong?

thanks!  :)

The issue appears to be from the final installed version of Daphile on
USB, and how it it set up to boot.  I know I'm just missing something.

The Dell Mini 9 is actually a wonderful little machine.  That said - it

expensive to replace - a 64GB model goes for about $65.  For that price,
this machine is a throwaway.  While the internal 16GB SSD functions, it
is 12 years old and I'd rather keep it functional for a few more years,
extending the life of the machine by running Daphile from a far more

of the internal drive as a workaround and attempting to do this all from
external USB drives. 

I *could* install something like LXLE on an external drive and then
install Logitech Media Server on top of that.  However, running
something like Daphile that's been purpose-built for the sole reason to
run a custom version of LMS which suits my needs perfectly and thus uses
a minimal OS install - and thus minimal resources - truly seems like the
way to go.

I thought about using Tiny Core OS and installing LMS on that, but after
reading through various threads:

Daphile really seems the way to go, especially since there's a 32-bit

VortexBox.  While there is a 32-bit version of VirtexBox, it's really
old -

Insist as much as you like, will not make a bit of difference. Sorry,

If you on iOS place a shortcut on your homescreen it will open in full
screen mode without address bar.
(In Safari you use the send-to option and scroll down to Homescreen)

It will not give access on the lock screen nor let you use hardware
buttons for volume.

The volume control uses a vuetify (the toolkit Material uses) widget
called a v-slider. Early versions of Material used this for the time
slider, but as this is frequently updated it used a lot of CPU. Changing
to a simple progress bar (plain HTML5) drastically reduced the CPU. So,

Material was designed primarily for touch input. I've added an issue

I can not give you the controls on the lockscreen, but you can simply
save (send to homescreen) the website: http://xx.xx.xx.xx:9000/material

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Material Skin

2020-08-25 Thread schmurtz


Hi,
I can't say how much I love this skin, this is a real revival of
squeezebox interface !

Like I use it more often I have some questions and improvement ideas,
feel free to answer with the numbers 😉

1. Do you think possible to add a cursor (like the volume bar) on the
playing seek bar ? Because with touch it is easier to catch and move a
cursor instead tapping on the right place. 

For exemple it is pretty hard to place the cursor at 0:00 with
touchscreen. (just see your issue about it ;))
2. One thing is missing from the original skin : the fast search bar in
the top of the app. I like the fact that it search during typing. Any
chance to see an implementation of this in your skin ?
3. When you are in your artists list for example it could be nice to be
able to type a letter (or more than one) to quickly go to the desired
artist.
4. Is there a reason to not be able to pin all kinds of objects in the
home screen ? (it could be nice to pin a spotty playlist or just an
album that we listen all the time).
5. Be able to choose any RGB color for the toolbar ? (I know it's
really just a detail but it takes time to find defaults on this skin
😄 )
6. In "playing" view, adding a way to be able to unrate a song by
making a clic on the same star or with a double clic ?
7. May be rating should have a behavior be like the volume cursor too.
Like this we could be able to give a note with half stars (like 3.5) on
touch devices .
8. Do you want that I create some enhancement posts in github's issues
?


Some questions not directly linked to the material skin development :

A. I was looking for an IOS app based on your skin. Why ? To remove
systematically the address bar and to have controls on the lock Screen.
Does it exist ? (just see that the android app exist now, good thing !)
B. A version for squeezebox touch / radio ?  (ok it's just a dream, but
just in case... )


Anyway many thanks four your awesome work !
(just been astonished that you are the author of cantata too ! I have

Amazon determines from which Alexa-enabled devices (Echos, phones) and
which countries subscriptions can be started, not the skill. So
unfortunately there's no way around that. 

The skill 'discovers' all players that have isplayer:1 in the discovery
response and whose name does not end in an asterisk. If a player is not
included it can only logically be for one of those two reasons. Web
client players, for example, have isplayer:0.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] 'MediaServer' *certified* Alexa skill for LMS

2020-08-25 Thread mecouc


Thanks! I've got it nearly working for testing at home. Now, I don't
have a physical Echo (I've just given it to my mother), but for testing
I have the Amazon/Alexa app on my phone which responds quite nicely.   

I asked for a subscription but Alexa on my phone told me I couldn't do
so "on this device" and needed to ask my Echo.  maybe I'll just have to
buy another one? Is there a way of getting a trial subscription using
only the Alexa app on my phone?


MediaServer/Alexa lists my physical squeezebox players, but for some
reason does not detect the "SB Player" app on my phone, even though the
LMS web interface lists it as a player. But that's unimportant. Maybe
when I've rebooted everything.

I find it very disconcerting that Mediaserver answers half the time in a
male voice, and half the time in the default female voice. Weird. But
not a problem!

I can speak as a user of this skill, I had similar reservations to you,
I wanted something that would be reliable and not need much tinkering.

Once set up this does the trick and works well. The documentation is
very good and the skills author is very helpful. Once you get used to
the "rhythm" of talking to Alexa it works very well and after a while
it's difficult to live without voice control. So overall yes its a very
worthwhile addition.

On a simple, standalone server system as you propose, it shouldn't be
too much trouble to set up (use the ngrok tunneling with auto update as
documented), and then just leave it alone to do it's thing. 

It does have a few anomalies occasionally but these are Alexa/NW related
and not issues with the skill.

Yes exactly - if the header has been acquired and the protocol handler
is the classical HTTP then, bug permitting, seeking works


Does not seem to be working. I've added the scanner, which extracts 
correct information. Yet I don't get any audio, and after a few seconds 
the player would skip to the next track. As without the new code. What 
other parts of the protocol handler might be cheating on me?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] 'MediaServer' *certified* Alexa skill for LMS

2020-08-25 Thread philchillbill


The robustness will be mainly determined by how good your proxy setup
is. If you use ngrok and the auto updating process described in the docs
it should be bulletproof. 

One general comment about anything Alexa related and not just this skill
is that humming and hawing is not well tolerated. So your idea to
simplify the names of certain works is an excellent one where a senior
is the intended user.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] 'MediaServer' *certified* Alexa skill for LMS

2020-08-25 Thread mecouc


This looks brilliant.  I might try it myself, but I'm primarily looking
for something my elderly visually impaired mother can use to play her
classical music collection.
I've recently given her an Echo dot to play with, but results with
classical music are very disappointing with Spotify or Amazon music. 
I'm willing to rip all her CDs and set this up if it's simple and
reliable enough for her to use.  

I have remote access to her PC, but it has to be essentially 100%
reliable or she'll give up. I hate to ask a silly question, but is it
all pretty robust?

I imagine I'd need to set up LMS, set shuffle to off (for those
classical CDs). I don't think the Alexa skill supports use of "composer"
and other classical tags, but using LMS support for multiple genre tags
should allow us to help classify things. I expect I may rename some CDs
entirely, so she can ask to play an album called "Fred" instead of its
actual really long name, and then print out a list on paper in big
print.

Yes, this is the expected behaviour on SB3, Boom and Transporter
(probably) when seeking flac. I've made a fix in LMS but Qobuz needs to

That's the reading of the stream to trigger the parser in the onStream 
handler part, isn't it?
