Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
Thanks a lot for solving the battery problem. Much better here. Honestly saying, iPeng wasn't really useful for me, when everytime I picked iPod up, it was dead. Playback functionality is great, although I didn't test it much. This is because I have organized everything to have music everywhere. If I would have this thing before, I probably wouldn't buy Boom for the bedroom, rather listen with iPeng instead (I use headphones anyway). I have a small suggestion, although I don't know how to solve it. Here's the problem - for me (and I think a lot of other people) using iPeng always starts with the same thing - selecting the player. I have four of them and I never know which one was used on iPeng last time. Thus it is normal for me to always go to players screen first. It is also very common to start music on the wrong player, and then fixing this. I would love the option to have a quick player selection right after startup. Also it would be great if this would be somewhat less complicated than players screen, which has a lot of information and stuff, and I need to scroll it because all players don't fit there. I know requiring the player selection at each startup is problematic, but I think something clever can be invented. For example: 1. If iPeng was used short time ago (ie. 5 minutes), use the player which was used last time. 2. If iPeng wasn't used recently, and only one player is playing something, go to the "Now Playing" of this player. 3. Otherwise (no players or more than one playing music) ask which player should be controlled or something similar.. -- azaz44 ---- azaz44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

No jailbreak here. I tested volume keys (didn't know such functionality exists). Seems to be OK - if iPeng goes to background, it works as regular iPod volume and doesn't change anything on the player. If I switch the device to sleep, it doesn't do anything, even if iPeng was in foreground. -- azaz44 ---- azaz44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread
I have the battery issue as well. I run 1.2.10, but I think I had it with 1.2.8 too (not 100% sure). I've disabled Notifications, disabled Push (but I don't use email client anyway). I grabbed some battery app and measured it several times. On the attachment: first part is only battery app running, second app - iPend added, third part - iPend closed, 4th part - iPeng added again. The graph is not quite OK (high usage with no apps in the first part) - I think it's because accuracy in measuring battery level. But I tried several times, and the battery always goes down more, when iPeng is running. In this test I always turn the device off (so it sleeps), and iPeng was in the foreground, at "Now Playing". Running it on iPod 32GB, I think 3rd gen. I wonder about one thing. When I bought iPeng initially, I set it to always keep connection (and drain the battery). After some updates (probable to OS4 version) this setting went off, and now both settings (prevent sleep mode and preserve connection) are off. Could it be that somehow it's still on somewhere inside? I tried to switch it this way and back, but this didn't change anything.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Plugin development for iPeng
Weblink works fine. But not very useful for me, as it closes iPeng and opens Safari with no clean way of getting back. I have two new bugs for you, one important. If you fix my trac account (shell I just create new?), I'll report them. Bug #1 (critical): I have a menu displayed, each item has two lines (newline character in the string). Now I refresh menu contents (by going to submenu and going back with refresh). In new content each item has only one line (no newline char). What happens, it shows two lines for each item, first coming from the new item, and the second coming from the item before refresh. Bug #2: --- This one is not important to me, because I made a workaround. Just so you know. I set "ID" for each of my menu. Then I use this in "nextWindow" so iPeng goes to the window I want. I use it instead of using 'parent', 'grandparent' (because I need 'grandgrandparent'). Now, all my menus have the same ID. This should be allowed. Behaviour in SP: it goes back until it finds the menu with given ID (correct). Behaviour in iPeng: it goes to the first menu (starting from plugin root) which has given ID (wrong). It is specified, it should search menus -backwards- here: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SBS_SqueezePlay_interface Code: Valid nextWindow directives are: * nowPlaying: push to the Now Playing browse window * [...] * (7.4+)any other value of a window that is present on the window stack and has a "windowId" in it's window fields.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Plugin development for iPeng
So I wait with the weblink, cause it takes too much time to try guessing. BTW. I got multiline in SP.

Most of these things don't have to be iPeng specific. I raise them with the understanding, that any other controller can use them as well. iPeng was the first, so it has some rights now to specify new protocols. pippin;598437 Wrote: > It depends on two things: > The menu needs to have enough items (at least 50, I believe) and it > needs to be alphabetically sorted. > > It's not supported, yet.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Plugin development for iPeng
Hmm, I'm afraid I have more questions. All of them to make iPeng even better :) Question 5 -- Any way to get the functionality, which is marked at the screenshot, in iPeng? This comes from "window -> help". I consider using it to display information / help about the menu which is just displayed, but it doesn't make sense if iPeng will not display it. Question 6 / bug - I'm not sure if this was ever reported. Sometimes, especially when using context menus, strange situation happens. Typically when you enter context menu on some item, then close it. Then you click on another item, but iPeng makes action (ie. goes to submenu) on the item which was previously selected (the one used to open a context menu). Additionally trying to show a context menu by holding a finger will do this it on this wrong item, or (mostly) do nothing at all. I have a feeling it is related to the context menus, but I'm not 100% sure. It happens a lot in my plugin (extensively uses context menus), but I also get this in standard "Music Folder" from time to time. Just wondering if you know about the problem. If it's new, I can look for ways to reproduce and fill some report.. Question 7 -- Ok, this one's really crazy. But who knows, maybe iPeng has something :) Any possibility to display some entirely custom content, like a web page, or at least at image, somehow from the menus? +---+ |Filename: Capture.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=11081| +---+ -- azaz44 ---- azaz44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83474 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Plugin development for iPeng
Hello pippin. More questions about iPeng: Question 1: --- I would love to group some items in the browse menus in my plugin. For example there would be 20 items with a title "Piano Trio" and another 20 with a title "String Quartet", all in the same menu. I think SqueezePlay doesn't support such thing. iPeng has a great UI to do this already, and it actually uses it to display first title letter sometimes. Not sure what it depends on. I get it in one particular menu, but on one of my servers. On the other one I don't get it somehow. Both are SBS 7.5.1. See Screenshot. So, what I want is I want to control these things and put my strings there. Is it supported or any chance to have it? Question 2: --- I can use '\n' in menu item->{title}. Then iPeng will show two lines, one black, one gray. This looks great and allows me to put more information. But SqueezePlay will display two normal lines and it looks shit. Any way to have a separate title for iPeng, so I leave SqueezePlay with one line and add extra support for iPeng? (Or mayby it is better to go with menu style 'album'?). +---+ |Filename: Picture 005.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=11080| +---+ -- azaz44 ---- azaz44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83474 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Plugin development for iPeng
Excuse me to bother you with another question, but this one looks like some general issue with iPeng. I made a context menu with Add, Insert, Play. On 'Play' action I specify, that the player should go to "Now Playing" after executing the action. This works fine both in SqueezePlay and iPeng. But iPeng doesn't "close" the context menu (so actually it doesn't go back from the context menu). So if are at "Now Playing" now, and you press the left arrow to go back to your music collection, you're still in the context menu with Add-Insert-Play. SqueezePlay (and Radio, Touch) would close the context menu, which I think is correct behaviour. I wanted to look how to fix this, but then I realized, that this happens everywhere in iPeng (in Music Folder, Albums etc), not only in my plugin.

I just try to add a file to the playlist or play it, and have hard time finding out how to do this. -- azaz44 ---- azaz44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81440 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
[SlimDevices: Plugins] Plugin development - environment
Hi there I used a seach functionality and didn't find related topics. But if there are any, I'm happy if one redirects me there. I try to make some small plugin development and wonder how you do this. I found SoftSqueeze works great instead of testing thing on the real hardware. This way I can also development anywhere, not only at home. But is there any way to get rid of SC stop/start everytime I make a change and want to test? Or any way to make this work faster? I disabled all unneeded plugins in SC, but still it takes some time to stop and start again. Any other tips on how to develop things? -- azaz44 -------- azaz44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81440 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
