Yes of course you can do that but the OP is accessing via folders
choosing a folder or folder with sub folders and hitting play with
shuffle. His tags are … not sure ……but it sounds like they are non
existent and no mention of saved playlists.

Personally went I want a random playlist I prefer to choose half a dozen
tracks manually and then let DSTM/LastMix do it’s stuff.

This is something that appears with shuffle enabled from time to time
but it’s not something that annoys many people probably because very few
actually use shuffle as there are far better ways to get random play of
a subset of your music. 
However all of these other ways require properly tagged files and I’m
sure you said elsewhere that your reason for using folders is because
your music isn’t tagged properly.
Why not spend an hour or two tagging just one or two artists files
properly then do a rescan and look at Artists and Albums in Material.
You’ll see how these jump in points (and New Music) are much better than
Folders from a navigation point of view. Then you can experiment with
Random Play and Don’t Stop The Music / LastMix which are not quite the
same as Shuffle but IMO give better results.

Well. You are right. I don’t like Apple or Amazon services due to the
closed code,  but you have to bear in mind that many people do not use
LMS. I m comparing cost.

Well, it is possible you are right. Anyway, it is not important to me. I
can wait. I am satisfied with the current quality of Spotify. Ogg Vorbis
320 works very well. In fact I think the most important aspect here is
the mastering process.

While Michael is behind Spotty, I’m calm.

The problem, I think, is that Material's webmanifest file states that it
should be run fullscreen - and this hides the top and bottom android
bars. For the next release I have changed this to "standalone", which
means it will run in app-mode but will not hide these bars. You will,
however, need to re-pin the app to the homescreen.

If you don't want to wait for the next release, simple edit
material.webmanifest in your LMS install and change
-"display":"fullscreen"- to -"display":"standalone"-

[Edit] Or you could use the Material APK from f-droid (search for LMS)

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Material Skin

2021-07-30 Thread grockster


Hi, thanks for all your great work on material skin. 

I'm not sure whether this problem has been raised before (apologies if
so), but I use the material skin web interface via an 'add to home
screen' shortcut in Android (Google Pixel 4a, Chrome is still the
default browser). 

For a week or so, when I try to access material skin's uppermost toolbar
(i.e. player selection, volume control etc.), the main Android status
bar appears as soon as I touch the toolbar and 'overwrites' it, making
it impossible to control the players.

To illustrate, when I press anywhere within the red box (which I added
to the screenie myself...) as below:

35378

I see this:

35379

Any pointers or potential fixes would be hugely appreciated.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Track info/artwork display one track behind

2021-07-30 Thread verycd


My LMS server firmware version is 8.1.1-1610364019. Touch firmware
version is 8.0.1-r16855.The LMS material skin app and my Touch player
display the information and cover art of the previous track, not the
current one. I did a few experiements and found it happens when shuffle
is turned on and right after the first song, which means after the first
song finishes, the display repeats the same info and art work and then
proceed to the second track when the third one is already playing. The
problem is always there regardless the playlist consists of just one
album (folder) or multiple albums (folder with subfolders). If shuffle
is unchecked, the display repeats the second track and then proceed to
the third while the fourth is playing. Obviously tracks are not of the
same length, the display either skips the extra time or stops at the end
and waits. In all the situation above, only a local library is in use,
no online contents. Please advise.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Best online streaming service with plugin for LMS

2021-07-30 Thread doggod


Hi guys,

Read this whole thread and found it interesting. Also sorry for for my Q
isn't 100% related to the OP's Q. I myself really not interested in any
streaming service, have my own library that I'm more than pleased with.
Anyway I'm huge fan of our "hobby" and more or less a music nerd and so
are many of my friends. Sad thing is that most of them are hooked on
"ease of use" more than quality of music (or SQ if you like). I've tried
to talk them into our little "community" but really have no arguments
why they should have a squeezebox type player. Many I know have a huge
CD collection just laying around stored somewhere and I find it quite
sad that instead of ripping their CD's to uncompressed they listen to
the same music as mp3 streams (in the worst case) on their phone thru
shitty headphones or maybe thru a BT to analogue device on their hifi. I
guess what I'm kind of asking is if there is any good arguments to play
their spotify stuff thru LMS instead? E.g more functionality? It seems
there is plug-ins they might give more functions? 

Anotherthing I always wondered about is how does spotify and the likes
work with volume adjustment when only using their apps as playing
device? Is there replay gain embedded in their streams?  Or perhaps some
sort of compressor in their official apps? For me it would be
unthinkable to not have a replay gain function.
