Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] AirPlay, Chromecast and UPnP bridges update

2022-12-14 Thread The Groundsman


Hi

I have a set up with PiCore and am on the stable release channel with
bug fixes (LMS 8.3.0) and these plugins are working as expected for me
on my chromecast and upnp players. 

I would like to help out though by testing - as a non technical user
would that be any use to you? The last thing I want to do is to be a
source of frustration by not following what is required so if you think
that's unhelpful do say so - I won't be offended. Mostly the issues seem
to be on Windows so I've rigged up an old PC with LMS v8.3.0 ( is that
the best one to use or should I be on 8.3.1 or 8.4.0) on Win 10 .

I was planning on playing music of various lengths and levels of
compression of my own own FLAC and MP3s plus a bit of spotty and see
what happens but wondered if there were more specific testing  scenarios
I should look at. 

Thanks for all the work you people do here it is amazing

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)

2022-11-30 Thread The Groundsman


Hi. 

I posted back in March of 2021 about how music played via Spotty gets
back to Spotify (or doesn't)  so the artist gets paid and the Spotify
curated playlists reflect your listening. Michael, I believe, confirmed
that this "report back" wasn't available in the Librespot development at
that time. 

My Spotify 2022 Unwrapped came out today and based on the number of
songs played, it looks like some of my LMS Spotty listening is included
but a lot is not. 

19 months have past  with lots of  LMS development in that time. Is it
still the case that Spotty listening doesn't get reported back to
Spotify ?

Thanks

By way of update in case it is useful info. We had an unscheduled power

some more  strangeness on the Spotify Connect. The one player I have

It flashes up for a second but never persists. Log shows

Thanks for looking Michael. 

I sent my observations during logging in the private message but I
didn't save them and the forum didn't save a copy of my message. Sorry
for being useless.

>From memory I did a clean start of the server by pulling the power cord
from the RPi and enabled the logging.

I started playing a song in Spotify app and selected my player with
connect enabled. Music played but the song was the next in the queue
(Grow Grow Grow) and the display in Spotify showed it should be some
Lady Gaga. The next song by Lykke Li started to play but I think it
ended before the end of the track. I had to restart the next song
manually ( the Jacksons) and after that finished the music stopped
playing altogether.

I just tried to play some music now and got a similar result. 1st track
I selected in the queue plays but it shows the 2nd track in the queue in
the spotify app, LMS showed the correct track. On the start of the next
song. I plays for a couple of seconds and stops.

2022-09-25 Thread The Groundsman


I don't often use Spotify Connect but it's always worked fine me. I know
others have had a few issues in the past.

Not so great today though so may be something to do with this update?
There is a 10 second delay before the music starts playing even though
the progress bar is moving in the spotify app. Sometimes the progress
bar in the app keeps  moving but no music plays. Sometimes the track
finishes prematurely, rarely will more than 2 songs from the queue play
successfully. Often the song starts playing again.

I've tried restarting the server but same issues. Log is not showing any
errors since the restart and its set to Warn for spotty.

Just me?

I couldn't find the sleep setting in the default skin so I wonder if it
might be some Material functionality - apologies if this is in the wrong
thread. 

I use the sleep settings quite a bit mainly the "sleep after the
duration of the current track" which is for me a very useful function. I
did notice that the music fades out as it reaches the end of the track.
Is there a setting to stop the fading happening. I couldnt seem to
figure out how to do that.

2022-02-18 Thread The Groundsman


I listen to a fair amount of classical music but my circumstances might
not be typical and almost certainly not the same as the person making
the original request. The tags of my local files are not very good and
mostly I listen via Michael's Spotty plugin. In both my cases the MAI
plugin doesn't really return anything useful about the composer the
artist or the individual track but i might be able to offer a view.

Here's a case in point from spotify.

37247

I can find the information about this recording on All Music which I
believe is the MAI source.

https://www.allmusic.com/album/dvo%C5%C3%A1k-cello-concerto-mw0003403761

I'd be grateful if the MIA returned anything more than than the album
art  so a link to this all music page would be perfect. However I
suspect it might be quite tricky to narrow down the specific recording.
Unfortunately "Classical" music is a very  diverse genre and
inconsistently organised.

I used to be with Deezer before moving to Spotify ages ago. I liked it a
lot and there seemed to be less licencing issues. The issue for me was
that there were quite severe limitations on playlist size. 2000 v 1
on Spotify.

I am a bit weird I know but most of the time (ie  when I'm not listening
to classical music) I like to mix up my library which is about 25000
songs. I got rid of most of my CDs and have a small number of things
ripped locally that are not available on the streaming service, but 99%
of listening is from Spotify. I am yet to find a way of randomising my
library so I keep it in around 5 playlists; to work around the 10,000
song limit. From time to time I export everything using an extension - 
exportify, and do  the randomisation in excel and then copy a chunk
(3000 songs or so) of the mixed up songs back into Spotify. 

I can't find an alternative streaming service that allows for this
export import so I get my properly randomised music.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] 3rd party plugins on new PiCore player

2021-12-31 Thread The Groundsman


Yesterday I started to move my LMS world from my old windows 10 netbook
to my new pi4 with piCore.

I had a  couple of issues but thanks to the documentation and this great
community I have made some progress. I'm stuck again unfortunately as I
would like to add some plugins. Material, BBC Sounds, Chromecast and
Airplay bridges and Spotty are the essentials. The trouble is I see no
TP plugins on the plugins tab. When I did my trial run installing LMS on
Lubuntu they were just there but it looks like LMS is failing to reach
the repository (is that the right name?)

Would be grateful if someone could give me some direction please.

Just a small thing. 

When I view a Spotify playlist via the Spotty App it shows cover art ,
song artist and album - all very elegant.

If I add the same playlist to "Favourites" and select it the Spotify

Thanks. I am still unclear, but I do appreciate this is something to do
with the way I have my Spotify set up rather than the way the plugin
works.

I have my Spotify organised so that all my music exists in 6 playlists
that represent 5 genres plus another one for "new music to try". I am
using playlists as a collection of songs. 

I don't understand what makes the 101 songs that are integrated special.

I think I must be missing something really obvious here and recently
read that this plugin integrates playlists only but I do not understand
how it is interacting with my Spotify account.

I see the following information about Spotify
35451

When I search for an album or an artist or anything within LMS,  only
the local files show up other than for the 9 albums/101 tracks but I
can't figure out how to get the 27,195 tracks that are in playlists to
show up. I also can't figure out what attributes the 9 albums 101 tracks
have that do make them show up.

There was a view that because they increased the cost of some of their
premium offerings  (family etc I believe) there would not be a further
price increase for the HIFi offering making it an attractive option vs
Amazon and Apple.

After the initial announcement I was quite excited but now not so much.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: CastBridge = integrate Chromecast players with LMS (squeeze2cast)

2021-07-25 Thread The Groundsman


Hopefully this is in the right place as I haven't been able to
completely be sure where the issue lies.

I'm having a problem in the last couple of days playing tracks over 10
minutes from Spotify via Chromecast Audio and Airplay

The Following instances

1)  track Shine on you crazy Diamond parts 1-7 duration 17:32 from
spotify over airplay bridge. Track ends prematurely around 12 minutes
and crossfades with the next rack in the queue. I have this track
locally but at a lower bit rate and it played right through.

2) track Schuberts Octet 1st movement
https://open.spotify.com/track/7abavMfKPzktTyEHDnoJkd. duration 14:52
Track ended around 11 minutes. I don't have this track locally but
another version of the same piece of music at a low bit rate and this
played fine.

I checked the airplay log, the chromecast log and the LMS log. I get
this warning repeatedly during the airplay session. 

[21-07-23 16:50:46.1592] Slim::Utils::Misc::msg (1341) Warning:

In the Chromecast log though I Get the following issue

The final test was then to enable debug logging on the spotty plugging
as I thought that might be the issue and played the Schubert Octet again
and it played without issue.

So I'm thinking that the problem is in the chromecast bridge with the
track being shorter than expected. Is this potentially  an intermittent
buffering issue? I seem to recall another report of problems with long
songs but I can't seem to find it now.

Any help gratefully received. Its a big pain with classical music where
track durations over 10 minutes are quite common 

Thanks

Do you have the option to update plugins automatically ticked. I used to
and found plugins were downloading but I had no idea when they were
available until the next server restart.

I unticked the automatic download and now get the green notification
icon when there is a new server version and when a plugin update is
available leaving it up to me when to update ( server or plugin) . That
works much better for me.

This was exactly my issue. I had a 32 bit version of Win7 even though
the processor supported 64bit; so when Win10 free upgrade came along the
upgrade was also to 32bit win10.

I ended up reinstalling windows 10 with the 64 bit version and manually
adding in the 64 bit  Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime.

Since then all has been good.

My mistake. My processor does support 64bit but it was originally win7
starter 32 bit so in the move  to Win10 it installed the 32 bit version.
I've now moved to Win10 64bit and reinstalled LMS.

I got the same error as before saying to check I was Microsoft Visual
C++ Runtime (32-bit!). I updated that to 64 bit manually and everything
is now working OK, albeit a little be slowly. It takes around 3-5
seconds longer to add around 200 songs to a queue and there is some lag
in changing volume etc but I hope that will settle down. 

I'm a bit concerned that the LMS installation was partly stuck in 32bit,
so was wondering if anything else needs to change. The Perl Version?
Though I have no idea how you would update that manually if it does need
to change.

Hi, I'm not able to get Spotty 4.5.0 to run after upgrading today.

I'm running Windows 10 on an old netbook that says its an X86 based PC
which is 32bit windows I believe. The Spotty plugin page says a red
warning
There has been a problem running the Spotty helper application. Please
make sure you have the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime (32-bit!) installed
on your system. 

I have this running but reinstalled it anyway.

I can see the spotty.exe file in the plugins folder but if i try to run
it separately I get the message "This app can't run on your PC"

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
just look it up on google :cool:

If not available the stream should still play shouldn't it? 

Most of my classical listening has no words and the music that does have
words never returns them the material "Track" Tab, but the music still
plays.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Material Skin

2021-04-13 Thread The Groundsman


I'm the same to be honest. 

I do like to keep an eye out for changes to my plugins ( Material,
Spotty, Chromecast and airplay bridges). If you have the box ticked to
automatically update the plugins  you don't get a notification in
material if there has been an update that is pending a restart. Material
is my preferred skin and I dont use anything else on mobile and tablet
but my work around is to open the default view when I'm using my laptop
and that way you do get a notification that a plug in has been updated
and needs LMS to restart; it's displayed at the bottom of of the screen
next to the help.

i did wonder and have previously suggested that we could have a
notification in material in the top right corner - maybe a different
colour to the green dot that gets displayed when there is a new version
of LMS. It doesn't seem to be an issue for most people so I understand
if Craig is not keen on this.

Sorry if this is a dumb question. 

The Android Spotify app has a new feature that shows Recently Played,
but it only shows stuff played through the official App and Spotty
plugin  listening doesn't appear. This made me wonder if listening via
Spotty plugin is recorded against my Spotify account at all and as a
result feeds what Spotify suggests and curates for my account. 

I'm now thinking it doesn't and that explains why things like my
Discovery Weekly is full of inappropriate suggestions :confused:

Yep I have the automatic plugins ticked. 

That downloads them but they are not activated until after the server
restart.  I was expecting the same behaviour as in the default skin (as
described in my post) That way I can see which plug in has been updated
and what the functional change is, so I can decide If I want to apply it
straight away or wait for the next time LMS gets updated.

Really not that big a deal, was more curious about the difference
between the 2 skins.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)

2021-01-01 Thread The Groundsman


Sorry to be a bit slow on this - I did try and follow the recent posts
but I'm still not clear. 

I used to Stream Spotify Connect to a Chromecast Audio and was reliably
informed that Spotify doesn't officially support streaming to Chromecast
Audio. In the Spotify Android app  the google hardware shows up as
*Google cast* rather than *Connect*. Spotify converts their stream to
AAC (as used in spotify the web player). This casting at AAC 256kbit/s
is inferior to regular Spotify Connect of 320 kbits/s.

Generally earlier spotty showed in LMS streaming as Ogg Vorbis at
320kbits but now every track shows as -705kbps CBR, Ogg Vorbis (Spotify)
(Converted to FLAC)-. I assume that even though this looks like it is a
higher bitrate, it won't offer any improvement as the original stream is
at 320 kbps. Also why is it necessary to do the conversion now anyway?

Hoping someone can clarify for me.

regards
Nicholas

I try and keep everything reasonably up to date though LMS is not the
current version

LMS Logitech Media Server Version: 8.0.0 - 1605892076 @ Fri Nov 20
18:13:13 WEST 2020 running on Win10
Spotty v4.4.5

Thanks for looking ( it really isn't a big deal)

Nicholas

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.0 - integrate local library with your Spotify collection (LMS 8+)

2020-12-17 Thread The Groundsman


I have a few "go to" playlists in Spotify that I listen to and update
all the time. 

To save time I put these in LMS favourites folder so they show up on the
home screen. When I load them up the only thing displayed is pages of
the Spotify URLs

spotify://track:[spotifyid]. i can still add the whole playlist 

It's really not a problem as I can add the playlist to a player queue
from the favourites summary screen - I just wondered if this was expect
behaviour. It works the same in material and default Interfaces so
assume this is a Spotty thing.

All good now for me.

I am so frustrated with Spotify though. It's one issue after another.
The recent token issue for example. Thus whole lack of consistency with
the way Spotify works with  Chromecast has been a long term problem.
Trouble is after being with them for a few years I don't like to think
of the effort to move to a different service. 

Anyway.. rant over

Thanks again for your awesome work on this plug-in.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.4 - more personalised content

2020-11-27 Thread The Groundsman


The problem started around 9:30 GMT for me. 

It took about an hour before I could access my music at all on the
Spotify App. Then a while longer before I was able to use Spotify
Connect to Chromecasts. Now it seems to be working just about OK in
Spotify but not via LMS.

I can't find any meaningful updates from Spotify about the issue.

Thanks for the token fix using the client ID, Thanks also for all of
your amazing work on this plug-in. I can't tell you how much it has
changed the way I listen to music.
