Mixcloud provide URLs specifically to stream programs both live and non-live. The chosen HLS format is using a newish option - fMP4 (fragmented MPEG-4). I am updating the playHLSv2 (no ffmpeg) plugin to support this HLS/fMP4. This is generic plugin as the HLS format is used by many broadcasters, it needs to satisfy more than just the Mixcloud needs so take it is taking a bit longer to complete. When complete, the Mixcloud plugin would need to be updated to support to use the HLS URLs. I am not sure whether the current plugin supports finding the URLs for live streams. The change to https by many stations and services has required LMS and many users to upgrade system as shortcoming were exposed. Support for LMS under Windows is a bit harder as the Perl is version is stuck at 5.14 because support for the particular product used by LMS has ended and the Perl vendor no longer updates the libraries. So some libraries are getting a bit out of date and so other issues may appear from time to time. Ralphy has been good at updating these libraries so far. The number of developers on LMS plugin and core is still quite small and their free time is finite. Orphan plugins are the hardest to deal with as devoting time to fix them means less time to deal with other LMS issues and the prospect of later calls for support. Philippe has been exceptional in his efforts ( and courage) in adding much needed code adding required modern features (e.g MP4, https, http 1.1, SqueezeAMP, numerous bridges etc.) to LMS core. If anybody wishes to help & learn to add/fix code to LMS and/or plugins - you will be supported as the pool of developers has to be increased otherwise LMS may stagnate. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88286 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Yes we are talking about different things. Icons can typically show up in three instances: Menus , favorites and when playing. Often Favorite icons don't show up when playing - I thought this was the case. The icon in menus driven by the install.xml and so should display normally as long icon is in the location and the HTML settings match the installation (i.e. EN is for English) - although I think EN is the default if there are no other languages defined.

The module in question is an old AnyEvent module which I used to add HTTP 1.1. support (i.e. persistent connection - multiple http GETs over same TCP connection) which reduced processor load considerably for HLS and also enabled old version of LMS to play HLS streams because it had better TLS support than pre LMS 7.9.

The URL I used Tune-in - plays OK outside of LMS and looks like an acceptable http/MPEG4 file - which is why I am curious why it fails in LMS when mixcloud URL is not installed. The mixcloud plugin regex grabs any mixcloud URL so no point testing with Tune-in if plugin is installed. As I said I don't use mixcloud so it was a bit of random testing. Some stream were MP3 so I assume not all mixcloud streams have the same format and so mixed results are likely. The half speed playback was happening when I was testing on DAC32.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Mixcloud plugin?
As a test, I set up a clean install of LMS 8.1.2 nightly with Mixcloud. Didn't change any default settings. No personal auth id. Some MP4 tracks without issue to both DAC32 and to a Radio So FileType MPEG-4 is all default i.e. Native, faad/flac, faad/lame and faad. For streams that plays OK on Radio - LMS proxies https stream without any need to change default settings (i.e. Filetype is unchanged, insecure HTTPS is unchecked !) Ones that worked OK https://stream.btsstream.com:8012/dcfm.aac It also seems to direct stream OK for another Code: [21-04-07 10:48:32.1236] Slim::Player::Song::open (460) URL supports direct streaming [mixcloud://theresa-deane/ms-skyrym-sounds-03-04-2021/->mixcloudd://stream2.mixcloud.com/secure/c/m4a/64/9/9/7/3/90a7-4b3c-4930-ba14-56fe9e53907c.m4a?sig=JPjjUS_BpQRV8QB_jxOXyA] However - some tracks fail. I found one track Classical/Fluidnation - which seemed to jam up the LMS/plugin. Another track (Jazz SaturdaySelects) plays at slow speed. When I tried to play the URL I tested before using "Tune-in" https://stream6.mixcloud.com/secure/c/m4a/64/2/6/0/6/442f-d95a-4b49-a3a1-8c1c59ed1186.m4a?sig=oP6RGk-Bo-2rKvOpYVPOTQ This cause problems with the mixcloud plugin - I'm guessing the plugin has hooks (maybe for metadata) and so mixcloud.com URL shouldn't be played via "Tune-in" or Favorites I think this means the MP4 issue is OK and the LMS 8.* is prbably OK.

The mixcloud plugin I think uses the download MP3 and MP4 URLs to play. The dlmixcloud response also the HLS/fMP$ and DASH URLs for streaming (i.e. not downloading). I think the LMS failed to play the https URL and so it fell through into the ffmpeg (part of PlayMP4 plugin) and ffmpeg was able to play the https/MP4 URLs. If that is the case then there is something odd about LMS https handling - however I'm not that familiar with https negotiation details nor LMS https handling and at the moment don't have the time to go down those rabbit holes.

I don't > have more time to investigate. This works in proxied mode As I said I don't use mixcloud but you have confirmed what I expected - mixcloud doesn't play well with MP4 support in LMS 8.* . Have you checked why the Mixcloud MP4 URL I copied which plays OK with VLC and doesn't with play in LMS 8.* which hasn't mixcloud plugin installed (i.e. so all the parseHeader etc. stuff is irrelevant) ? https://stream6.mixcloud.com/secure/c/m4a/64/2/6/0/6/442f-d95a-4b49-a3a1-8c1c59ed1186.m4a?sig=oP6RGk-Bo-2rKvOpYVPOTQ I agree - I think Mixcloud plugin cpould be simplified. The plugin manages to find a source which has a JSON response of track details. The JSON response has 3 playable URLs (HLS/fMP4, DASH and HTTP/MPEG4) which means the plugin should just provide a playlist of applicable URLs to LMS and then so could remove all the special stream handling code. A stopgap would be to provide variants of PlayMP4 to use ffmpeg to play HLS/fMP4 stream or maybe to proper PlayMP4 support for 8.* (i.e. override all LMS 8.* - extreme as I think loses more than it gains) . Coincidentally, when time allows, I'm working on enhancing PlayHLS to enable the playHLS plugin to natively play HLS /fMP4 and also a PlayDASH plugin to play stream with suffix "mpd" and mime "application/dash+xml". These additions would enable mixcloud just to pass URLs to LMS to play - although metadata would still be up to mixcloud to maintain. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88286 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Somehow it generates https URL for MP4 streamable files which have problems playing on LMS 8.*. User have install theplayMP4 plugin to use ffmpeg to play and even then it is not reliable. I don't use it but when I try the https/MP4 URLs that are in the posted logs I get 403 errors. I can play the same URL with ffplay or VLC on the same Ubuntu system as LMS is running. It might be some sort of Auth issue but can't reconcile that with playing OK with ffplay.

Yes. I think it's possible because stream fails to play or parse it falls through into the PlayMP4 plugin. It needs more work to look at it in more detail. LMS 8.* defines mp4 type - the playMP4 plugin may override the mp4 LMS 8.* handling but it was designed for 7.9.* and 8.* has more options and so the MP4 plugin may be half handling mp4 types. However, if PlayMP4 is not installed, the http MP4 stream URL (withou using mixcloud plugin) fails with LMS 8.* MP4 handling with a 403 - so that implies a problem with LMS MP4 and/or https handling. When using the mxcloud plugin, the stream fails to even start playing - so that indicates something with the mixcloud plugin itself. So a few layers of issues. > Is it unlikely that the mixcloud plugin can/will be updated to correct > this, is it no-longer supported/maintained? MP4 and https issues should be fixable once Phillippe is made aware.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Mixcloud plugin?
It looks like the mixclound plugin cannot process a mixcloud audio file from dlmixcloud.com (i.e. https://www.dlmixcloud.com/ajax.php ). The URL in the log has the following JSON data which I think says the audio is available in HLS/fMP4 or DASH formats - no MP3 or plain MP4. I'm guessing mixcloud plugin has not been installed properly or this is something new or I'm looking in wrong place. ffmpeg is able to play HLS /fMP4 so I think errors in mixcloud plugin may be falling through into PlayMP4 plugin and ffmpeg manages to play thr format even though it is the wrong setup.

Yes- the issue was a problem back in early 2020 as 8.0 was released "suddenly" and plugins developers had to play catchup without forcing all 7.* plugin users update plugins with no functional change. That said, some of your repo URLs were out of date. I would advise to remove all 3rd party repos URLs and then discover which ones you now need and make sure they the up to date one. With the new automated 3rd party plugin list build which rebuilds 3rd party list every x hours - there is less need for separate plugin repos previously required to push out plugin updates quickly. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114151 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

I see the approach to be using LMS on Linux to test an update to AnyEvent 7.*. The AnyEvent 7.* module is easily built for Linux but changes to some LMS core modules are likely. Upgrading AnyEvent to 7.* on Linux should be feasible as I think LMS use of AnyEvent facilities is limited and this is a upgrade not a reimplementation. The main difficulty will be building for Windows - if a new AnyEvent module built then I would hope there would be no major issues as they should have been ironed out testing on Linux. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114000 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Looking at updating AnyEvent is on my (long) todo list as it would be useful for another idea I have. IIRC Beside the "whether it works ", Michael had more basic concerns because of problems in building any library module for Perl for Windows (stuck as 5.14 as longer supported by vendor). Around same time there were problem update SSL libraries but Ralphy managed to build new SSL libraries which meant LMS got reasonable "https" support. Summary - i feel AnyEvent module could be updated & rebuilt - then "does it work" can be tested. Just time is needed and unlikely to be Michael's as there is no pressing need for it. The simplest approach would be to test 7.* on Linux and if OK - try to build for Windows. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114000 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Yes but in this case they don't install - they are on the list to be installed but never get installed as they fail validation but LMS will probably try to install at next startup. If developer had made a mistake or omitted something (plugin updates are rarely done at leisure) - plugin install may fail at one of many points or may partially succeed (e.g. wrong name in URL, bad checksum, error in code).

Except keeping "Use unsupported extensions" setting unchecked, you can't anything more - it is up to plugin developer to keep the data correct. What happened was 8.* released and my plugins had a max version then of 7.9.* I hadn't tested the older plugin whether they worked with 8.* so it was safeer to keep restrictions. Usually there isn't a great takeup of 8.0.0 release - a lot of user wait until 8.0.1 so it seemed like no pressure. However 8.0.0 had a lot of on-line integration features and Tidal support that meant there was a rush of "non-technical" users to update followed by a rush of "complaint" about plugins not loading. So with lots of caveats - I made a blanket change to all my plugins. I removed what I thought were all the "old" plugin but NPR slipped by.

What probably happened is you upgraded LMS and the old NPR plugin (now incompatible) got carried along but cannot be updated so left in limbo. I thought LMS would delete it. I think the way to delete it is to stop LMS and edit the prefs/extension.prefs file and delete the line with "NPR:1 " and also delete the NPR directory in Cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins. Then restart LMS. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113975 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Different devices can have different settings. Until you have things settled, I'd avoid "hw:" as they require the output to be matched to the input with no conversion. Try "plughw:" devices first as they support ALSA software conversion which increase chances of audio output.

This can have an effect if applications are sharing audio. If there is no output with an ALSA device it is possible some other application has already "opened" the device and so squeezelite has no access - but no error will show.

My observations: 1.8 is old - so whereever you are getting the Squeezlite - stop using and find the up to date build - 1.9.8 MAC address should never be all zeroes - it is a bad foundation to do testing.

With Tidal you may come across 8.0.0 shortcomings so perhaps it is time to start thinking about a Pi for LMS and files staying on Synology as it seems to be the well trodden path for Synology users. In the meantime, if you need sox - you could send a PM to Ralphy - he has built the 3rd party tools for various platforms. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113932 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Your sox reside at */volume1/@appstore/SqueezeCenter/Bin/sox* - you could try to run it form a shell prompt. If it doesn't run, you could probably replace it with a good version from older LMS since sox hasn't changed much.

I'd advise get a log of trying to play a Flac track with player.source set to INFO. This will show whether the custom convert is working correctly and if not how LMS is trying to invoke sox.

The BBCIplayer plugin handles live radio as infinite stream but which you could rewind up to 3hrs and so on say R4 could go back across a number of programmes. Since the introduction of HLS and DASH The BBC evolved the metadata about programmes and rewind capability. BBCiPlayer plugin didn't change the underlying live stream mechanism from FLash and AAC which were just infinite streams and no rewind. BBC Sounds handles live radio programmes as a series of tracks of known duration but I think you can only rewind to start of current programme. 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

It would be better to use arecord -l as that would only show the valid capture devices - "aplay -L" shows ALL alsa device playback and capture. WaveInput is a LMS plugin and so audio input will only work on the Pi which has both the Line-in hardware and LMS. If want to use a Line-in on a PCP player (i.e. no LMS) - IIRC there is a PCP facility to take Line input and stream it as a Http MP3 stream and so "Line-in" can be played as a Favorite. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113920 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Squeezelite on rPi 3 suddenly not working
Ignore the visualisation for the moment - it is driven from the data stream from LMS. No audio output is an issue with the output device. If as a result of Pulseaudio or something else, some other application has access to audio output device - it can kill output from Squeezelite to same device - Squeezelite wants sole access. Please confirm your Raspbian version - I think it is Buster ? Please confirm you want to use the HDMI port and not the Headphone ? What Alsa device did you use on the Squeezelite command line (e.g. hw:CARD=b1,DEV=0 plughw:CARD=b1,DEV=0 ) When test playing with omxplayer are using "-o hdmi" or "-o alsa:" If using "-o hdmi" - test playing with omxplayer using same Alsa device as you use on Squeezelite ?
