Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Material Skin
I have a Google home/nest hub device sat right next to my hi-fi set up. Does anyone know how I can get it to browse to my material player at http://192.168.0.5:9000/material/ I know it has a browser on the device, but you can't just load it, you have to somehow navigate to it with your voice. And even if I do, is there a way to "bookmark" it so I can get back to it again? rincage's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69770 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

Unsupported plugins only appear after a user have manually installed
them, confirmed that they work and issued a pull-request towards the
unsupported repo:
https://github.com/LMS-Community/lms-plugin-repository/blob/master/unsupported.xml
If people dont know how to make a pull request they can also just tell
mherger or another community developer to do it for them.
So the reason Custom Skip doesnt appear is that nobody has done this
yet. People using Custom Skip on 8.0 have installed it before they
upgraded to LMS 8.* or manually installed it after they setup LMS 8.*
The reason for the above process is to ensure plugins which have never
worked on 8.* doesnt appear in the unsupported list.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Dynamic Playlists 3 (mod)
Following up, the only issue I've encountered is that where dynamic playlists from earlier versions of DPL3 had been saved as favorites, the favorites no longer work. I don't think that's surprising. The playlists still work, so it's just a matter of deleting the old favorites and saving new ones. LMS 8 nightly running on Raspberry Pi OS. Mostly virtual players, occasionally with SB Radio, Boom or Classic.

Actually I think I phrased that last part about coexisting in a misleading way (edited my post now). It was about making sure that these new versions 3 (with the different name) wouldn't block the listing of the previous versions 2 in the "unsupported extensions" section. Thanks for confirming that for DPL v2. And at least I know the missing CustomSkip2 is not related to CustomSkip v3. So that's something. Thanks.

Thanks again. I don't think I'm someone who knows his way around Github, but I can follow simple instructions, sometimes correctly. I've removed your old repo and added the new one. I've uninstalled the previous version of DPL3 and re-installed from the new repo. I then had both DPL2 and DPL3 installed, and two Dynamic Playlists entries under My Music.

Thank you for your opinion. The voice of reason always has a nice ring to it. Download counts suggest that apparently once DPLv3 is removed from the LMS main repo future versions would only reach a small fraction of all previous DPL v3 users which is kind of sad. Adding external repo urls seems to be a lot less common than I'd hoped. So you're right, it'd probably be better if DPL v3 remained part of the LMS main repo. Therefore I've changed the internal plugin name that LMS uses, both for Dynamic Playlists 3 and Custom Skip 3. But even if I add DPL3 or CS3 to the LMS main repo (again) one thing remains: due to some changes in my life I'll have even less time to spend on LMS plugins. I don't know yet what this will mean for these plugins (and others) but we'll see. That was actually the main reason I'd considered removing DPL3 from the main repo. BTW when I did some tests on a *clean* LMS 8.2.1 test system CustomSkip 2.5.83 didn't show up in the list of "unsupported extensions" for me. It's still listed in the main repo xml file though, just didn't show on the settings > plugins page under "unsupported extensions". All of the other plugins did though. Can anybody reproduce this?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Musly DSTM Mixer (mix by similarity)
Hi Craig,
thanks a lot for driving this plugin and your work on Material and
everything else in the Squeezebox area.
I used an earlier version of you music-similarity plugin, before you
made it public (via Github - I was interested in this "mysterious new

Essentia). I will try this new version of your plugin when I will have
time to "fiddle" with my system, also trying Essentia with my Raspberry

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] 'MediaServer' *certified* Alexa skill for LMS
You can now specify a player name together with the favorite name when using the PlayFavorite command. Same is true for the PlayPlaylist command. :cool: If you say e.g. "Play favorite Radio Paradise *on the* Kitchen player", the bridge /(?:in|on)\s(?:the)?\s?/i will be used to split your utterance. If the portion after the split (fuzzy) matches one of your player names, that will be taken as the player to target and the leftmost portion before the bridge will be used as the favorite name to match against. If there's no match post-bridge against a player name, the bridge is assumed to be part of the actual favorite name itself and the split is abandoned. None of this applies when using the Stream variant of both commands as in that case there never is a player specification (the Echo itself is the inherent target). See https://mediaserver.smartskills.tech/commandref/PlayFavorite.html#34 and https://mediaserver.smartskills.tech/commandref/PlayPlaylist.html#37 for details.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Squeezelite issue with DAC name ?
I have searched this forum for possible answers without success, but if it has been dealt with feel free to point me in the right direction. Until then . I run pCp 8 with LMS on an Rpi4, but cannot connect it successfully to my DAC, a Furutech ADL GT40a (this last character is a small Greek alpha) with USB input. It does find it but apparently can't handle the name (I think). When connected to any of the USB sockets (usb 2 or usb 3) on my Rpi4, the following happens when selecting USB Audio and choosing the DAC from the list of devices exposed : DAC name in Squeezelite shows: hw:CARD=GT40,DEV=0 (note the unusual symbol) There are further iterations of this device name on the page, but I cannot get that screenshot onto this post, for some reason. When I go to 'Save' in Squeezelite an error message Please match the requested format appears next to the Output Setting box, as if it cannot handle one or more of the characters in the name. If I make a simple change to the saved name in 'Output Setting' (eg removing the symbol) Squeezelites saves it, backs up the change, but will not restart (not unexpectedly). I have tried replacing the symbol with the Arial character map symbol (small greek alpha) but this is also rejected by the Squeezelite page, before saving. Picoreplayer in USB Audio mode works fine when I select a USB-based bluetooth extender option (not currently connected), which plays to my bt headphones, so the problem is not with the Rpi4 USB. As a further check I have installed and run Moode 7.41 with this DAC, on the same Rpi4, and it works fine found immediately and plays very well, so I don't think the problem is related to drivers or to a basic Linux issue. I am fairly sure that the symbol in the DAC name is the problem. On my Eunhasu SMS200 streamer, which includes LMS+Squeezelite, this problem also occurred and was cured/corrected by the Eunhasu engineers making a change to how their implementation of Squeezelite handled the unusual symbol. I would not expect the developers here to make a special change in pCp/Squeezelite but could the problem be overcome by my writing a change into a config or other file? For example could the symbol be seen as another character, one that Squeezelite is happy with? I realise that getting Squeezelite to accept a modified name may not allow Squeezelite to then talk back to the device, so my idea may not be the right approach, but any relevant suggestions are welcome. nickhews's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=67980 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115384 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Radio Now Playing plugin
Yes it is but the API provider represents the data in a different way for Dublin and London. In the future they might be different - e.g. if only one of them decide to stop switching to DST. I suspect it will not happen, at least while Northern Ireland is part of UK.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Radio Now Playing plugin
I think it is due to a peculiarity of the time zone API call I am making. Ive dropped them a question to see if it is a fault in their data (I suspect not) or in my interpretation of it (I suspect it is).

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Spotty 4.6.2 LMS 8.2 - Streaming stops on Radio after about 10sec
Hi all My Spotty worked fine last used weeks ago. Now I have the issue I can start streaming on Radio, but after about 10-15 sec playing stops. In the client the time is still running. I use familiy account with Spotify Client ID. Any idea what could be the issue?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Radio Now Playing plugin
RTE - the programme info. Unfortunately they give the start time as something like 09:00 So I have to work out what that means in the timezone of the broadcaster. I thought I had it working well but knew that there might be an issue when the clocks changed (in the broadcaster's country) ... and I forgot to double-check when I came back from my short break that covered the time going back ... so I released 0.0.12 using the beta code without verifying.

Dear Erland, Thank you. This is crystal clear. I am actually on LMS 8.1 and your plugins are still working fine. Anyway, I truly understand your position and I have already made some effort to get rid of Multi Library and Custom Browse plugins, however IMHO Custom Skip and SQL Playlist have very useful features that have not yet fully replaced in DPL V3. I will do my best to encourage and support afriend to evolve DPL V3 for the benefit of the community. All my best.
