Normally didn't originally (back 2012 - 2013 or so) - but sometime later, about when the online scaning started failing for places like Amazon and similar (for album info & images), the lyrics also started going to custard... Think when APIs all got updated/changed and the shift to https for all web browser traffic basically broke it and it's never been properly fixed. Means MediaMonkey lyrics fall back to chartlyrics.com (which is erratic in accuracy) and azlyrics, metrolyrics, etc. azlyrics is the one that implants urls through out the lyric text (like after every verse) and the others are the ones you end up with just the url to the webpage and no lyrics IIRC (azlyrics may even do this now - as they may have 'upgraded' their site)... *Hi-Fi 1*: QNAP HS-453DX NAS+QLMS/Allo USBridge Signature+Shanti LPS/Cirrus ESS Sabre 32-bit Reference DAC (Oppo 105D)/Yamaha Aventage CX-A5000/Focal SM9s. *Hi-Fi 2*: Sqbox Touch+Shanti LPS/Focal XS Books. *Hi-Fi 3*: PC+Squeezelite-X+Material Skin/Focal XS Books. *Hi-Fi Misc*: iPeng (iPad/iPhones)/Plantronics BB Pro 2 LE Headphones. *Accessories*: Tchernov -Classic- & Van den Hul ICs; Thor PS10 Power Station; Blue Jeans & Ruleconnect Cables (Power, HDMI, USB & Coaxial); Aurios & Vibrapods.

I was running Song Lyrics to cover for it.

Michael - quick question - if MAI is not putting an artist picture file in the album directories, and I have no configured folder with artist artwork, etc, where is MAI saving the files - or is it not (just dragging from web and caching temporarily or something)? e.g. there is an artist pic for 10cc, but no artist.jpg (or png) in the 2 album folders I have for that artist (nor the parent '10cc' folder). I have no other configured folders for MAI (in fact I have no other folders on the NAS other than a separate playlist one - I have checked directly on the NAS's file explorer also for files, just to be certain).

Nice, especially in conjunction with the material Skin. Great work @rgdawson (and @cpd73 for contyributing the Material Skin)! Just FYI - I noticed an odd quirk (it may already be covered previously) with Host Name field in the application settings page. It correctly identified both my LMS libraries by name, and had the correct ports for them, BUT when you selected either of them it reported "-no LMS Library Found-". Manually entering the NAS or Server IP address instead resulted in it connecting fine and consequently it isn't issue as its all running fine using IP library addressing.

All good @cpd73 - I wasn't having a go, have come into this thread late and its not practical to catch up by reading 307 pages of posts so wasn't aware it'd already been covered... :) Was only commenting as I had observed the very same thing Marcus had posted about, as I just 'happened' to be playing around with the Material Skin a few days ago - wasn't intending to denigrate it or anything, as I think its a great plugin.

FWIW I had the exact same issue on my Windows 10 PC the other day - I was playing around with Material Skin to see how it looked, found a couple of constraints that meant I needed to go back to the classic 'green' UI and there is no option to do so as that control field (drop down list) is missing from the interface page.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Local Player plugin and Squeezelite for Linux/Windows/OSX
Morning All - I've just installed this plugin last night to try out, first time I've used it (as usually haven't listened to music while at my computer desk); and I am having an issue where it won't actually start, despite restarting LMS and rebooting the host NAS. I have LMS running on a QNAP HS-453-DX NAS via QLMS and my client is a Windows 10 PC (with the latest 2019 major feature updates). All I get is "(Not Running)" showing on the LMS page next to the tick box where you enable the player (and the box is ticked)... Can someone advice the first basic troubleshooting steps I should take (e.g. anything obvious I should check is enabled or installed, etc)?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
Morning Pippin, Another recent observation - and possibly an idiosyncrasy of my iPhone and/or Network/LMS Environment - but I have noticed a strange lag many of the times I open iPeng that affects the quick access bar along the bottom. I have this customised, so mine reads: *New Music | Artists | Albums | Genre | ...* (and my '...' more list is also sorted into a custom sequence). The issue happens about 75% of the time when I first open the app (e.g in the evening after work and its the first time I've used the app that day): What happens is it opens with what I am assuming is the default sequence showing (although I haven't recorded it each time to verify its the same 4 options every time, and on a couple of occasions I have had a very abbreviated list showing in the '...' more section) - and not my sequence above - and then after a delay of anything from 10 to say 90 seconds it updates and adopts my custom sequence. On the odd occasion it hasn't updated after about 90 seconds so I close the iPeng app and reopen it and it has my correct sequence on opening. Everything works fine from then on and its only the first time each 'session' - I can close and reopen the app as often as desired after that and it will immediately have my config showing. I have only observed this since implementing my new QNAP HS-453DX NAS with QLMS and building a new library on that. Because it's fanless and relies solely on the heat sink for cooling I have it do maximum power saving (hibernation/sleep) to keep the activity low when not actively listening to music (to minimise the processor temperature). So I am guessing it's caused by the lag from the 'wake on LAN' or similar being initiated by iPeng, when its trying to connect to the library on the NAS? But, should this cause the effect on the iPeng UI (i.e. is it reliant on the library connection first before it adopts the user's custom config) - or is it unrelated and might be a minor issue with my iPeng App (e.g. needs a fresh reinstall)?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
Hi Pippin & All, Quick question on defeating DTTP in iPeng - sorry if it's been covered recently (I just spent ½ hour running searches trying to find anything recent on it) - how do you enable this in iPeng now? I'm sure there used to be an option to inhibit touch to play for albums & tracks (i.e you always got the context menu to choose what you wanted)? I haven't used LMS & iPeng much last 9-12 months and have been getting into it again last couple of weeks or so and 3 times now I've destroyed playlists that I've spent 30-60 minutes building by inadvertently touching (instead of press+holding) an individual track :( TIA - *Hi-Fi 1*: VortexBox LMS/SOtM tX-USB; Oppo Cirrus ESS Sabre32 DAC (BDP-105D), Yamaha Aventage CX-A5000; Focal SM9s. - *+ HT*: Sony 55" 4K KD-55X8500C LED, Oppo UDP-203, Apple TV 4K, PS3/PlayTV; Focal SM6s (1 Twin6, 2 Solo6, 2 Sub6). - *Hi-Fi 2*: Sqbox Touch/Focal XS Books. - *Hi-Fi Misc*: iPeng (iPad/iPhones), Plantronics BB Pro 2 LE Headphones. - *Accessories*: Tchernov Classic & Van den Hul IC; Thor PS10 Power Station; Blue Jeans & Ruleconnect Cables (Power, HDMI, USB & Coaxial); Aurios & Vibrapods.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
Hi Pippin, iPeng 7 is looking great but I noticed something it seems to lack from the prior iPeng - the ability to add songs to new playlists (and create those playlists on the fly) without adding them to the actual active playlist?

Just an update to say I got LMS Squeezelite working all good with the Devialet 170 (soon to be the 200) from a Windows PC via USB. Above solved it and only other issue was the admin rights being the same for install run of LMS AND the network shares for the music library.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Local Player plugin and Squeezelite for Linux/Windows/OSX
Hi, Is there any issue with SqueezeLite on a Windows x64 PC? I have a PC with a Devialet 170 connected via USB, and I have installed LMS and am trying to get SqueezeLite to run as the player using the Devialet (Windows USB Drivers are installed and Windows Media Player will play to it okay). However seem to get weird things with SqueezeLite when I install (e.g. shows as a player in the LMS drop down list, but doesn't show at all in the Player Tab under Settings)? Am I missing something obvious? I installed using the windows install exe download. I tried to search the thread to see if anyone had had a similar experience (perhaps with a different device) but couldn't easily find anything - so would appreciate any guidance on things to do/try...

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
Hi Pippin, I see you have been getting a bit bombarded of late! :) But I was wondering of you had a moment to comment on the issue in iPeng with Now Playing not displaying multiple artist names (when present), I've had a bit of a browse/search but can't see if what I'm thinking has been raised previously? I was wondering if as a work around whether there's a way to switch that lt;artistgt; field to lt;album artistgt; instead, solely in iPeng clients? Is there a switch setting in iPeng? I think you can change this in LMS right (although I haven't double checked for sure)? But that's global so will affect other clients (e.g. Web Browsers) as well, which do display multi-artist names OK... In my library I always have the album artist as a single name (e.g. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers), while my artist field will have multiple entries (e.g. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers; Tom Petty; The Heartbreakers; plus any other individual band members I have other albums for, and/or any guest artists on individual tracks). So displaying lt;album artistgt; instead of lt;artistgt; would be a usable work around that would display meaningful information in Now Playing. P.S. On a different tangent (probably telling you how to suck eggs here but) have you thought of writing something to strip the semi-colons out of the string to turn it into a single value (e.g. replace ; with , or such like)?

Not that the server was only sending 1 piece... So understand fully now. BTW - one odd little thing I've noticed (you probably have too) - that it seems to always be the last name in the artist list (as entered in the file's tag field) that gets displayed... Another work-around I thought of was just to always put the full album artist name in the artist field last in the list... as that may cause it to always display in iPeng then...?

I'm not 100% sure whether that change would affect what iPeng shows, I don't know if it affects the plain CLI status message. Right - gottcha - probably won't affect the background data being broadcast by the server. I haven't quite figured out if there is a setting for it or not, other than the advanced 'now playing' ones anyway (i.e. the ones that display extra info on now playing on the SqBx itself using the remote)...

My VBx is running LMS Version 7.7.2 - r33908 (this is dated March but it has been updated since I built the server in May) and the iPads are running iPengHD 1.3.2 - I need to investigate this more to verify where the source of the issue is but thought I'd mention it here in case anyone else has seen it (as it seems it may be an iPeng/VBx combination issue) or in case it's a known general issue? Any thoughts or suggestions Pippin?

Hi Pippin GaryM - Don't think I've posted there yet about that issue - doing some trials today then will as needed once i have more details... Basically the time track in the media window (whether in iPeng or in the LMS CP) jumps around. e.g. you start a new song that is 3:50 in length and the played time on the left starts at 0:40 instead of 0:00, it gets to say 1:21 then suddenly jumps to 1:59 or something, 10 seconds later it jumps back to 0:48 or such, and ongoing it jumps around suddenly going up 5 or 10 seconds, then occasionally jumping back 30 seconds or more, ll the time it's not tracking consistently in real time when it's not 'jumping' (i.e. it's running faster than actual), then it gets to 3:50 and the song hasn't finished so it ends up showing 4:17 or something as played time... (Note: all those times are just general examples, not actual example). I'm running VP into my system (see signature below) but this error happens on both iPeng and the LMS CP in web browser - so I originally thought it was iPeng/VP sync issue - but looks like it's specifically VB VP issue on the box, and/or LMS on Linux... I am about to do test today with SB Touch to see if it does it directly on that, and in iPeng managing it (if not in either case then I think it's clearly some sort of VP player issue on the VB box itself)...

Thanks Pippin - that's interesting as I actually have another minor problem with the server where it keeps getting the actual time out of sync - I'm in NZ so at +12 GMT, but sometimes the VB Server's suddenly changed the actual date time so it's effectively at about +15 or +18 GMT so I wonder if it's related to that then (the server's not reporting a consistent time in sync with the players/clients)? Appreciate your thoughts/response - I shall investigate further... (I love iPeng BTW - have the HD version on 2 iPads and the standard on my iPhone - been using it for 18 months now. An audiophile friend came over yesterday and he and his wife were playing with it too - they use the android squeeze commander(?) or such app on phone and the LMS CP on a laptop; and thought iPeng was considerably better/more functional and more user friendly, etc, than those.)
