Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Ratings Light

2021-06-07 Thread dunq


I've been testing out this plugin for importing ratings. A few
observations/problems:

* Using the comments technique, files which have a valid rating comment
(eg favstars4xx) get a correct rating imported, while files with no
comment have their existing rating in the database overridden -> no
rating. Is that the intended behaviour?

* Importing from a playlist, this mostly works (though on my first run
of testing yesterday the server would sometimes crash), but I now have a
handful of tracks that mysteriously refuse to display a rating, even
though all others in the same playlist do. On further examination, the
database has been updated for all tracks including the
no-displayed-rating ones mentioned (correctly having a RATING value in
the database), so why isn't the LMS interface showing the stars anywhere
that other tracks do? (Although I realise this seems to be a non-Ratings
Light problem,  it is only happening for files that I've rated using
this import process, so I'm posing the question here just in case.)

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Scan - custom rating tag problems

2021-06-07 Thread dunq


Hi there. I'm aware that Custom Scan is no longer supported, but for now
it mostly seems to work on my server (running 8.1.1), so in the hope of
any feedback from other users...

LMS natively imports *OGG* ratings (RATING). Custom Scan imports *MP3*
ratings (POPM) by default. All good. However, if I want to import *AAC*
ratings saved by -Mediamonkey- into the tag RATE, I have to use the
-custom rating tag- option in Custom Scan. I had hoped it would work
like this:

FILE has POPM/RATING tag (no RATE tag) -> -value untouched in database-
FILE has RATE tag (no POPM/RATING tag) -> -value from tag added to
database-

However, as it functions for me, it is treating a custom rating tag as a
-forced replacement- for the default, so all ratings for OGG/MP3 files
(the custom tag RATE isn't present) are nonetheless given a new default
value of 100, rather than being left with the original POPM/RATING
value. Thus:

FILE has POPM/RATING/RATE tag -> -*100 value* added to database-

All files receive a new and wrong value even though the tag is correct.

If this is unusual and the result of changes in LMS since Custom Scan
stopped being developed then of course that's just life, but if this is
not normal then suggestions for fixes would be welcome.

A couple of things to try...  You could try using the buffer command
line switch like so,

Or if you think older versions of squeezelite-win did not exhibit this
issue, you could use the Legacy WMA support switch which cause
Squeezelite-X to use an older version of squeezelite-win.

34926

There was some discussion about a similar problem with squeezelite
here...

https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?113554-SqueezeLite-on-Windows-pausing-interruption-dropout-of-audio-every-5-minutes/page6

Other than that, I'm not sure what to try.  You can enable
squezelite-win logging in the advanced debug settings as well, which
might give a clue as to what is happening.

Thank you very much Shozzer and The Groundsman for your help.

I understand you. My local library also has inconsistencies.it is
difficult to get a perfect local tag library. Anyway, I dont know
why some authors are failing, as Ennio Morricone (I have the same Artist
Name tag). Do I need another tag with the same value?

By the way. What is the MAI plug-in?

If I have caused confusion then I apologise. Music streamed from
Spotify, Qobuz & etc. come with tags provided by the streaming service.
The information contained in the tags doesn't appear to be 100%
consistent and searching using different permutations produces different
results. If the tag information in the streamed music or in my own
library does not match the Allmusic.com database then the MAI plugin
will not return information. I speak personally more from a classical

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: UPnPBridge = integrate UPnP/DLNA players with LMS (squeeze2upnp)

2021-06-07 Thread bobcoupee


Hi

Internet Radio is no longer streaming via my Sonos speakers when
connected to my LMS Server (run as a docker container) via the
UPnPBridge plugin. It plays for approx 3 seconds then goes back to the
beginning in a loop.

This worked fine until today.

I am running LMS Version: 8.1.2 - 1622353561.

I have upgraded the UPnPBridge plugin to 1.61.0.

I have restarted the server and have recreated the config for one of the
Sonos speakers in the UPnP settings.

There is no problem streaming internet radio to any of my Squeezelite
players.

Also there is no issue playing music from my local library or from
Tidal.

The following is in the logs that might be relevant:

First of All. Thank you very much Shozzer and The Groundsman.

I am little confused. Then, the problem that I am having, is not
produced due to the Artist Name tag (in my local music) and Spotify are
not the same? 

Does Michael obtain this info from LastFM? I thought this info was
obtained from Spotify. I understand the problem is difficult to solve in
classical, but I also have problems in not classical music.

Example: 

authors like Eric Carmen or Ennio Morricone don’t work and I have the
same names in my local collection and in Spotify.
must I use the LastFM service to get the correct name?

Not sure about iPlayer vs Sounds (I stopped using iPlayer a while ago),
but I do find that the volume level can vary quite markedly between
different programmes in Sounds. 

In some cases it may be a "perceived volume" issue (eg, different
dynamic ranges between music and speech programmes), but I think some
programmes (esp. some podcasts) are produced at a higher volume.

I've now - at long last - moved fully over from the trusty old iPlayer
to the Sounds plugin, for which thanks.

One thing - and maybe it's just me or my particular set-up - is that the
experienced volume is as much as 15% lower in Sounds than in iPlayer.
Anyone else notice this?  Not that it really matters, but having trained
certain household members that, eg, "21" is the correct R3 volume on a
bedroom Radio, it's now "27"; and on the amp driven by the Touch, 58 is
the new 51 ..

I did take a look myself to see if something was obvious to my untrained
eye - a lot there I agree.

I wondered if it was something to do with the CastBridge plugin, as I
was listening via a Chromecast Audio. I set the logging for that plugin
to debug but couldn't find any errors there either. 

Next was to try on an Airplay device and it played fine.

So to me, it looks like it's an issue with Chromecast,(and if so this is
now in the wrong thread - sorry). As it is such a rare event that its
probably not worth investigating much further. Should I post this in the
CastBridge thread do you think?

I believe it comes from Allmusic.com rather than lastfm. Not that it
makes much difference 

I agree that for classical music nothing gets returned at the moment. I
think it would be tricky to find anywhere where you could get reliable
review data for classical music. I would really something like the
sleeve note you used to get in the days of vinyl giving a little bit of
background on the piece or pieces of music on the album, but usually

I suspect you will have issues regardless of the naming convention you
choose. I have named, for many years, composers as: Surname, Forenames
(year of birth-year of death). This differs from the streaming services
and also from Last FM from which Michael gets the artist information for
the Music and Artist Information plugin. I can't be bothered presently
to go through my collection to change the information but may have to
bite the bullet at some stage. It is very rare to get an album review to
show for classical music due to the naming convention of albums. I am
not a Roon fan but the presentation of metadata is interpreted for you.
Even then, they don't always get it right.  That said, it would annoy
the life out of me - I like to curate my collection my way, thank you!

Yes, but you'd have to copy and modify the rs-stream.sh script to find
the 2nd radioshark device.

Usually ALSA adds _1 to the device name when there are 2 devices the
same.

Then run the modified script on a different port.


Code:

/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -R 0 9102 /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/rs-stream2.sh

My rs-stream script does not use or require the radioshark plugin.

Material's 'Player settings'  page has no save button, as settings are
saved when it is closed (same for Interface settings, etc). 'Extra
player settings' (which is re-skinned from the 'Classic' skin) does have
a 'SAVE SETTINGS' button at the bottom of the screen.

Hi Michael:

About the “the” and others, it could be a good idea as LMS does

About the Bach case, it is difficult to solve. It is a problem with all
the classical music authors. Spotify uses the name and surname in all
the authors and I use only the surname. I.e. Debussy, Mozart, Beethoven,
Chopin.

could be possible to look for a substring inside a string?

Thank you very much

JP

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Squeezelite-X

2021-06-07 Thread zordaz


I am running the latest version of Squeezelite-X and most of the songs I
play stops approx 30-40 seconds before the end. Sometimes they continue
after a few seconds, sometimes they don't. Manually restarting the song
from the beginning is always possible. It therefore looks like a
buffering issue or something like that.
I already cleared the cache, rebooted the computer, but I am not very
experienced with Squeezelite-X where to look further, any suggestions?

>From what I remember I haven't experienced this in the past.
