Although based on your mention of MusicBrainz IDs above, I'm not sure my change is the right approach. What if we could put a stable ID in the database (e.g., MusicBrainz if found, and a hash of the artist name if not)?

This is horribly complicated. iPeng needs to be compatible with a plethora of LMS versions so I can't just change the behavior for new setups or something and the behavior of XMLBrowser is pretty messy.

That's a very messy behavior of some car audio systems.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
Hi @pippin - I'm posting here to have more chance to catch your
attention. I'm trying to change the behavior of the "start from last
position" so that we can have our cake and eat it, i.e. have a link when
there is a "last position" *and* have a play entry as well so that when
that track is part of a playlist, it plays as well (otherwise it's not
pushed to the playlist). In other words, here is the example of my code
from YT
Code:
if (my $lastpos = $cache->get("yt:lastpos-$id")) {
my $position =
Slim::Utils::DateTime::timeFormat($lastpos);
$position =~ s/^0+[:\.]//;
$item->{type} = "link";
$item->{items} = [ {
title => cstring(undef,
'PLUGIN_YOUTUBE_PLAY_FROM_BEGINNING'),
type => 'audio',
url=> STREAM_BASE_URL . $id,
#duration => 'N/A',
}, {
title => cstring(undef,
'PLUGIN_YOUTUBE_PLAY_FROM_POSITION_X', $position),
type => 'audio',
url=> STREAM_BASE_URL . $id
. "=$lastpos",
#duration => 'N/A',
} ];
} #else {
{
$item->{on_select} = 'play';
$item->{play} = STREAM_BASE_URL . $id;
$item->{playall}= 1;
$item->{duration} = 'N/A',
}
You can see that normally (when "else" applies), I would have either a
type 'link' or a 'playlist' (set before in the code) and default UI
offers a play icon at the right of the item or if there is a last pos,
you can click it to access the "stream from beginning" and "stream from
last pos". Now, if I set both options, the default LMS UI offers both a
play and the click on the link and Material offers that as well, the
link is accessible through the "more" option. And when clicking on 'play
all', all tracks are included =>that's great.
But with iPeng and this configuration, a short-press on a track that has
both options means the whole list is played or long-press brings a menu
where I can play only that track, but the option to read from "last
position" is gone. When I don't have bot options set, a short-press
bring a menu with "from beg" and "from last pos".
Any chance to change that? Or something we could change in XMLBrowser to
ease both parties?

Problems I had in the past stopped me from using the MS Store version and I went over to the manual install version to delay start-up of SqueezeLite-X on reboot. I used a piece of software called 'Configure Startup Delayer by r2 Studios'. If I remember correctly that was back around v1.8 of SqueezeLite-X, maybe before, but I can't remember the exact reason for doing so; I think it was something to do with SqueezeLite-X not picking up host name and output device if LMS Server was not fully started - LMS needed just over a minute after reboot to start properly. If a delay was introduced before SqueezeLite-X started everything worked correctly so I've retained that delay ever since. Your reply above got me thinking and made me investigate more fully - it appears the start-up delay or the delay software itself was causing both problems. I've taken SqueezeLite-X out of the delay software, have it set to 'Auto Start On Log in' and I'll monitor its behaviour and get back to you if there are any more problems. So far after, 5 reboots, the system tray icon remains visible on the taskbar and clicking the icon before running it in a browser doesn't cause it to quit. If the problems return I'll get back to you and if it remains stable I'll have a go with the MS Store version again. 2 x Touch 2 x Radio 2 x Boom 1 x Intel-NUC server/squeezelite running LMS 8.20 (from nightlies) on Windows 10 1 X Odroid-XU4 server/squeezelite running LMS 7.91 on Ubuntu 16.04 1 x iMac server running macOS Big Sur WaveIO USB into Lavry DA-10 DAC Starfish Pre-amp : Based on NAIM NAC 72 Heavily modified NAIM NAP 250 Power-amp Focal Electra 1027 Be II Speakers bobertuk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=30376 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108550 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Yes, it will default to common denominator. It's mainly a traditional Group created on-the-fly, with some parameters that can be specific to the "virtual" group player (for example limit bitrate for large groups that do not apply when individual players are used) or possibility to set stereo pairs upon assembly.

Yes, it's definitely "Configuration" I'm referring to. "Extra settings" works fine. I guess I didn't realize that some player config is stored on the player. I just noticed now that the only players that offer "Configuration" are the ones running pCP. Other players that are on home-brew systems running a bare squeezelite don't offer that menu entry. Since I only just deployed the pCP players, at about the same time I switched to Material, I guess these are probably configuration options I've never seen before. As it happens, all of my players (pCP and others) also use ssh tunnels to connect to the server, so from the server's point of view, they all exist at the server's own IP address. That explains why the address I get when "Configuration" fails appears to be the server's address -- it's actually the player's address, as seen from the server. Where would I access the equivalent of "Configuration" if I were using the default or classic LMS interfaces? pgf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58510 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109624 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ANNOUNCE: Group Players
never been a fan of the way LMS does synchronisation as its too fiddly to setup and tear down. I assume that's whats drove Phillippe to write this in the first place.. Just discovered this and its amazing how much better it makes day to day use. When coupled with material, it makes jivelite seem archaic. One question though, Phillippe can you confirm what should happen if players in a group don;t support the same sample rates? will it default to the lowest common denomination like traditional LMS sync or can it cope with different sample rates per player?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ANNOUNCE: YouTube Plugin (API v3)
Hi Philippe , Just wondering if it would be possible to add option to force always playing from beginning if file was previously started. I have mapped subscribed channel to SB Radio Preset buttons and if podcast episode was previously started YT plugin skips it . I assume because Youtube asks if I want to play from previous position or beginning. As YT plugin is not able to answer, it just skips/tries another file. That's my guess anyway. Don't know if there is a way to overcome that behaviors, but perhaps an option to "always force from beginning" would work for some people? What do you think?

An even bigger sledgehammer would be to have multiple plugins, "BBC Sounds Account 1", "BBC Sounds Account 2" etc. I can't think that more than 6 would be required. If you did that, would each plugin be able to maintain its own context? Although it is a sledgehammer, I wouldn't expect it would add hugely to your maintenance burden, as each plugin would be a duplicate.

The only places I can see album artist being different from artists are; a) tracks with artist A ft Artist B, here A would also be album artist, and b) Various Artitist compilation albums - not sur eI see the point of showing 'Various Artists' in the queue or now-playing. Show all artists will show all values for a tag - e.g. all album artists, all composers, all track artists, etc. *Material debug:* 1.

Is the .cue file in the same directory as the .flac ? Is the file name of the .cue the same as the .flac (just the extension different)?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Material Skin
Hi Craig, I have a question about all the options of Material Skin for showing classical performers. Now one can adjust the settings to see the composer, conductor and band, which is great! But I can not figure out how to show the albumartist? I thought it was in the setting 'show all artists' but I think that one does not show the albumartist, right? Is it possible to also add a toggle yes/no button to show the albumartist?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce : BBC Sounds Plugin
Ok, I've come to conclusion, as Paul alluded to, the solution is probably not to make it too flexible. So I'm going to support multiple accounts. If more than one account is added, then in settings, which player is associated with which account can be selected. But a user has to go into settings to change it. There is not going to be a menu item to easily switch. That way, users know a particular player is (usually) always associated with a particular account. They will just have to live with the odd behaviour that if they browse on one player into "My sounds" with their controller, then switch player, then play the item, then : The item played will be recorded against a different account from the "My sounds" that the browsed to get their, if you get what I mean. Someone is going to have to write a "LMS User Account plugin" that streaming services plugins can supply context to (and get context from) and controllers can utilise in a generic way to give a better experience. That way an individual playable item can be associated with an account rather than a whole player.Anyone want to volunteer to write it ?? :):D:) EXPECTINGTOFLY PLUGINS : - *BBC Sounds* : https://github.com/expectingtofly/LMS_BBC_Sounds_Plugin - *BBC Sounds Wiki* : https://github.com/expectingtofly/LMS_BBC_Sounds_Plugin/wiki - *Virgin Radio (UK)* : https://github.com/expectingtofly/LMS_Virgin_Radio_Plugin - *Times Radio* : https://github.com/expectingtofly/LMS_TIMES_RADIO_PLUGIN expectingtofly's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63263 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113045 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Yes, that's the only way I think multiple accounts can work on LMS. But as @humax99 and @cpd73 have pointed out, users naturally want them to be associated with their controller on their mobile device as most playing devices will be shared. I still would be interested in anyone's experience of multiple accounts on spotty?

When LMS did the scanning did it list the individual tracks from the .cue file? If not then that is where you need to look first. Please post the header and first track info from the .cue file Paul Webster http://dabdig.blogspot.com author of \"now playing\" plugins covering radio france (fip etc), kcrw, supla finland, abc australia, cbc/radio-canada and rte ireland Paul Webster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=105 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108550 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

That way you break any > association with a device and each account can use any device. Well, not quite like that, but it would be possible to duplicate all the menus per account within BBC sounds. That would kind of work! That gets over the problem of the controller not knowing what account, albeit by using a bit of a sledgehammer. But that doesn't get over the controller not know what account the current playing item is, or account each item in the the playlist is assocated with.
