Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Squeezelite -a ::: - can anyone explain this option?
my basic understanding. PCM Audio is sent via ALSA interface to ALSA device driver. Audio samples are put into a ring buffer. The ring buffer size is controlled by the buffer parameter. The ring buffer is processed in terms of periods (i.e there x periods in the whole buffer). There is one frame per period. I don't know how samples are fitted into frames. The audio samples can either be copied into buffer using API Read/write or the buffer can be memory mapped into calling process memory so no additional copying of audio data. These are all hardware paramaters and so valid values are dependent on the audio device. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114868 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Where the program is a BBC originated even such as a Panel show, drama or a live performance such a concert, in studio or Proms - BBC makes sure beforehand it has agreed all the rights to broadcast (live & repeats) with the performers. Sports events etc which are not put on by BBC and so BBC have to buy the rights and accept restrictions by event organiser.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC Radio Rights Restrictions
I agree with Paul and finger trouble is an issue especially where programs get delayed such as football going into extra time or with cricket where rain stops play. In the past, I have found examples of the Podcast of a program being UK restricted but the "Listen Again" version not restricted (and have better audio quality). This is finger trouble. Restrictions can also apply to First-time or Live broadcasts (and so not on later repeats) or sometimes an unexpected performance happens (e.g. an interviewee starts singing) Just for completeness - the MP3 streams are classified as non UK. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114776 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

If you are in France you should not be able to play UK only streams except with a VPN but VPNs are not guaranteed to provide the UK only streams - the bitrate will indicate this.

You should not be getting any rights restrictions messages on UK streams. Are you outside the UK and using a VPN to access UK streams ? BBC often actively try to restrict VPN access. With BBCiPlayer plugin, some VPN users had to use the Limelight CDN as their VPNs didn't work on the Akamai CDN URLs. I believe BBC have now moved away from Limelight. If you are UK based it's possible you are getting caught by accident (i.e. a VPN is using the same ISP as yourself for the UK access) and so should report it to BBC. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114776 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Freeview and Freesat provide TV services using MPEG2-TS encoding which can be converted into HLS stream without transcoding. Some dubious IPTV services offer BBC TV HLS streams - they have never worked for me. Official HLS TV streams have played OK for me on LMS. The home brew approach would be to have your own satellite box which provide the IPTV streams on your own network. The TVHeadend plugin (https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?110619-ANNOUNCE-TVH-Plugin-TVHeadend-integration ) provides some facility for radio - I think it is may be possible for TV and you may get EPG. It may be a bit of work and expense if you don't have Freesat and an appropriate box. Even more of a project would be to use Freeview broadcast (DVB-T) to provide the TV feeds and a USB DVB-S/T dongle attached to LMS server to tune etc. The hard work is to make it easy to use. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113045 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

The "Live Events" streams never seemed to be part of the BBC Radio but rather Sports and possibly deliberately hard to find out what was on what stream.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: PlayHLS Plugin - plugin to play Apple HLS m3u8 stream
Re: the AnyEvent problems,
AFAICT The message "masks earlier declaration in same scope" is by
default a warning and not an error which seems to indicate something may
have changed warning levels. Not definite though.
The AnyEvent module is commonly used and maintained and still has same
code - so it is not considered an error in "normal" situations.
However, I can't reproduce even by altering warning levels. There may be
an interaction with another plugin or AnyEvent::common_sense
Workaround that might work. Edit the file
PlayHLS/lib/MyAnyEvent/Handlehls.pm and at line 2048 delete the "my"
coloured in red.
Code:
our $ERROR_SYSCALL;
our $ERROR_WANT_READ;
sub _tls_error {
my ($self, $err) = @_;
return $self->_error ($!, 1)
if $err == Net::SSLeay::ERROR_SYSCALL ();
my $err = Net::SSLeay::ERR_error_string (Net::SSLeay::ERR_get_error ());
# reduce error string to look less scary
$err =~ s/^error:[0-9a-fA-F]{8}:[^:]+:([^:]+):/\L$1: /;
if ($self->{_on_starttls}) {
(delete $self->{_on_starttls})->($self, undef, $err);
&_freetls;
} else {
&_freetls;
$self->_error (Errno::EPROTO, 1, $err);
}

It's the AnyEvent associated error. As it seems to have started recently I can only assumed it is associated to some 8.2 changes so I'll see if I can reproduce it.

Yes in application called flac which compresses the pcm from input port
into flac but not fixed size buffer.
Most of the delay will be in the application (i.e. lame for MP3 or Flac
for flac) which compress the data. Very little delay in LMS. Rest of
delay will be in player, transmission time and network buffers and don't
forget the roc stuff (its own buffering and network delay).

I think "must" is too optimistic if acceptable is less than maybe
200-500ms. If using windows - don't even bother trying.
The only setting left buffer threshold - min value is about 50 but then
if data is a little slow (i.e. don't use wifi) you'll get rebuffering
If filling buffer is the delay - then try a higher sampling rate (i.e.
96khz andnot 44.1khz) then buffers will be filled faster but take longer
to transmit - swings and roundabouts.
Player should be wired and not use 2.4G Wifi.
> Secondly, I hope that someone has an idea how to adjust the latency when

Buffer is the problems - buffer to compress and then player has to
buffer data before decompress.
> There is a webradio buffer setting in the audio settings of each
> squeezebox, however it doesn't seem related to this issue
Add the following in WAVIN.pm - it can cause more problems than it
solves but for a fixed setup. Value can be 0-255 but less than 50
generally doesn't work.
Code:
# use a small buffer threshold to make stream start playing quickly
sub bufferThreshold { 70 }
Radio station bufer seconds is the setting which changes how much data
must be in a player before ti start playing. The above means it is a
plugin specific value and not general settings.

Then it > takes about 15 sec. to resume at the org. position. The plugin starts a separate instance of cdda2wav for each track. The plugin aimed to be simepl by using a common exe to habdle CDs across Windows, Linux and OSX and keep OS specfic system calls to minimum (e.g. on Linux cd specific calls are used to get status of drive/door and cd type in drive - better user feedback) cdda2wav is a ripper not a player - once started it does not provide the capability to "pause" a track rip but it can started at a timepoint in a track. When LMS plays a a track, data stream from cdda2wav goes into a pipe (and OS buffers) and then into LMS input side buffers (e.g. flac) and then into player buffer. It is possible to enable pause (via settings) but if pause is too long cdda2wav may have finished ripping and some audio never gets into buffers. So depending on size of buffers (which is system dependent) when play is resumed track may be cut short. More reliable approach used was to record time position at pause and restarts cdda2wav when play ius restarts - actual delay is system dependent. VLC may be taking the approach of ripping whole tracks into memory in background (with VLC readahead of next track) and so can play /pause track as it is total control of whole track as it a player only system and can use disk / memory to temp store audio data. VLC is mainly a video player and so can play video DVDs and so has more capabilities to handle BD/DVD/CD drive and knows it has to implement schemes to handle big volumes of data and not be subject to drive delays. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=47288 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

I did test with a CD-Text CD. CD reading is mainly handled at OS level so VLC will probably be similar to cdd2wav on same OS. In CDplayer context Windows CD handling is crude and CDplayer could only use cdda2wav and be less informative about state of CD drive. Handlign CD from Windows API is horrible.

The LMS documentation is not complete and there are a few cases where URLs are not required.

I think it makes sense to check the transcode chain in LMS especially as it is within a Docker setup. Changes were made in 8.* to handle MPEG4 files which also generate similar symptoms. You have an issue which is ALAC, AAC/MPEG4 and Group player with possible . It is likely there is ony one crticial factor so the aim first is to simplify and find the critical factor. Since problem does NOT happen with player which include SB3 - I think transcoding is NOT the issue so the problem may be associated with playing "natively" (i.e. sending M4A/AAC or M4A/ALAC) to players. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114439 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Time display on browser is started when user presses "play" - the timer will then be updated by LMS with real time value once playing has actually started. In this because there is a problem in playing the file - the timer update becomes apparent. Can you confirm that the LMS supplied "faad" runs OK within your docker environment. What does the faad banner show in terms of version and patches. To see what is going on try enabling player.source to INFO. Note time and try to play a known single file unti the error "cannot play for file " shows and then note end time.

You should check whether the file FASTSTART enabled (i.e. streamable) is an issue. A file is "streamable" when the index to audio frames is placed at start of the file (i.e Flag FASTSTART is enabled when file is created). The following command will make a MPEG4 file streamable.

The intermittent problem which shows as"Decoder does not support file format" might be due to a problem in LMS MP4 handling perhaps corrupting some of the "initial audio block" Code: [21-04-16 11:13:52.9905] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setPlayingState (2377) new playing state STOPPED [21-04-16 11:13:52.9906] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setStreamingState (2386) new streaming state IDLE [21-04-16 11:13:52.9913] Slim::Player::Song::new (109) index 0 -> https://aod.planetradio.co.uk/a80s-meets/20191209110405.m4a?awCollectionId=a80s-meets&awEpisodeId=18497?awCollectionId=231&awEpisodeId=316771&listeningSessionID=6023265325e4dbb2_5641880_Sh7y8E7Q__000hC1O [21-04-16 11:13:52.9916] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setStreamingState (2386) new streaming state TRACKWAIT [21-04-16 11:13:52.9928] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_playersMessage (796) Getting stream info...: https://aod.planetradio.co.uk/a80s-meets/20191209110405.m4a?awCollectionId=a80s-meets&awEpisodeId=18497?awCollectionId=231&awEpisodeId=316771&listeningSessionID=6023265325e4dbb2_5641880_Sh7y8E7Q__000hC1O [21-04-16 11:13:52.9933] Slim::Player::Song::getNextSong (223) https://aod.planetradio.co.uk/a80s-meets/20191209110405.m4a?awCollectionId=a80s-meets&awEpisodeId=18497?awCollectionId=231&awEpisodeId=316771&listeningSessionID=6023265325e4dbb2_5641880_Sh7y8E7Q__000hC1O [21-04-16 11:13:52.9934] Slim::Player::Song::getNextSong (245) scanning URL https://aod.planetradio.co.uk/a80s-meets/20191209110405.m4a?awCollectionId=a80s-meets&awEpisodeId=18497?awCollectionId=231&awEpisodeId=316771&listeningSessionID=6023265325e4dbb2_5641880_Sh7y8E7Q__000hC1O [21-04-16 11:13:53.2981] Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::getConvertCommand2 (485) Error: Didn't find any command matches for type: unk [21-04-16 11:13:53.4553] Slim::Player::Song::__ANON__ (261) Track updated by scan: https://aod.planetradio.co.uk/a80s-meets/20191209110405.m4a?awCollectionId=a80s-meets&awEpisodeId=18497?awCollectionId=231&awEpisodeId=316771&listeningSessionID=6023265325e4dbb2_5641880_Sh7y8E7Q__000hC1O -> https://aod.planetradio.co.uk/a80s-meets/20191209110405.m4a?awCollectionId=a80s-meets&awEpisodeId=18497?awCollectionId=231&awEpisodeId=316771&listeningSessionID=60232653acf36aec_5651725_AvA2f57V__000ff61 [21-04-16 11:13:53.4555] Slim::Player::Song::getNextSong (223) https://aod.planetradio.co.uk/a80s-meets/20191209110405.m4a?awCollectionId=a80s-meets&awEpisodeId=18497?awCollectionId=231&awEpisodeId=316771&listeningSessionID=60232653acf36aec_5651725_AvA2f57V__000ff61 [21-04-16 11:13:53.4557] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_nextTrackReady (744) 00:04:20:27:a4:99: nextTrack will be index 0 [21-04-16 11:13:53.4558] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_Stream (1210) Song queue is now 0 [21-04-16 11:13:53.4559] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_Stream (1213) 00:04:20:27:a4:99: preparing to stream song index 0 [21-04-16 11:13:53.4560] Slim::Player::Song::open (360) https://aod.planetradio.co.uk/a80s-meets/20191209110405.m4a?awCollectionId=a80s-meets&awEpisodeId=18497?awCollectionId=231&awEpisodeId=316771&listeningSessionID=60232653acf36aec_5651725_AvA2f57V__000ff61 [21-04-16 11:13:53.4561] Slim::Player::Song::open (384) seek=false time=0 canSeek=0SEEK_ERROR_TYPE_NOT_SUPPORTED [21-04-16 11:13:53.4564] Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::getConvertCommand2 (488) Matched: mp4->aac via: - [21-04-16 11:13:53.4566] Slim::Player::Song::open (414) Transcoder: streamMode=I, streamformat=aac [21-04-16 11:13:53.4567] Slim::Player::Song::open (470) Opening stream (no direct streaming) using Slim::Player::Protocols::HTTPS [https://aod.planetradio.co.uk/a80s-meets/20191209110405.m4a?awCollectionId=a80s-meets&awEpisodeId=18497?awCollectionId=231&awEpisodeId=316771&listeningSessionID=60232653acf36aec_5651725_AvA2f57V__000ff61] [21-04-16 11:13:53.5922] Slim::Formats::Movie::getInitialAudioBlock (181) Reading initial audio block: length 172736 [21-04-16 11:13:53.6618] Slim::Player::Song::open (491) URL is a song (audio): https://aod.planetradio.co.uk/a80s-meets/20191209110405.m4a?awCollectionId=a80s-meets&awEpisodeId=18497?awCollectionId=231&awEpisodeId=316771&listeningSessionID=60232653acf36aec_5651725_AvA2f57V__000ff61, type=mp4 [21-04-16 11:13:53.6624] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_Stream (1282) 00:04:20:27:a4:99: stream [21-04-16 11:13:53.6636] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_Stream (1319) Song queue is now 0 [21-04-16 11:13:53.6638] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setPlayingState (2377) new playing state BUFFERING [21-04-16 11:13:53.6639] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setStreamingState (2386) new streaming state STREAMING [21-04-16 11:13:53.

This error was typical of files which are in non streamable MPEG4 that Radio & Touch cannot process. A quick look at the file and it seem streamable (i.e. moov before mdat aka fasstart) but there is something else that Radio/Touch can't handle. In 7.9 PlayMP4 and "leading audio" filetypes (i.e. mdat before moov) were setup to ensure that incompatible files were not sent direct to Radio / Touch. I think in LMS 8.* these "leading audio" type are redundant now and should be removed. LMS 8.* MPEG4 handles the "leading audio" but perhaps there is something else and Reliable maybe adding complexity as changes to transcoding was also done in LMS 8.* PlayMP4 using ffmpeg - bypasses LMS so basically the ffmpeg process downloads the files into memory and sends out flac and so all LMS issues are avoided.
