Ah, whew. Yes, I was off the forums for a while *and* lost access to the
old server I'd been using... but the new repo should work OK, and I am
trying to keep the plugins working. ;-)

(Eternal caveat: I've never used the Denon AVP Control plugin, having
written my own back when I used direct RS232 control.)

Max volume: my plugin asks about a max Denon volume in dB. My
expectation is that you'd set that to match the volume limit set on the
amp. I forget where it is in the Denon setup screens, but you can set
the max volume to one of a few specific values, ranging from -20 dB to
+18 dB. The minimum volume is -81 dB.

When you change the Squeezebox volume, my plugin calculates the nearest
half-decibel (or, for secondary zones, full decibel since half decibels
AFAICT are not availble except in the main zone). Set the SB volume to
"27" with my plugin thinking +18 is the max volume and plugin calculates
the amp volume should be (-81 + ((27/100)*(81 +18))) = -54 dB. If my
plugin thought the amp max volume was 0 dB, then SB 27 would be Denon
-59 dB. You might be able to do something like what you suggest by
configuring the amplifier to allow +18 but telling my plugin its max
volume is 0 dB, so that LMS would never set the Denon above 0 dB but you
could turn the amp knob or use a Denon remote to go louder. But there
are some conditions under which my plugin will resync the volume (for
instance, if set to poll the amplifier, when it sees the amp power
status change from off to on, it will set the amp volume to match the
Squeezebox [because any volume commands attempted while the amp was off
would have been rejected**), and if you had manually increased the amp
volume above 0 dB, my plugin would decrease the amp volume back to 0 dB
in those scenarios. Also decreasing the Squeezebox volume by even 1 of
the 100 steps when the amp was set signficantly higher than 0 dB would
lead to a significant drop in the Denon volume. So I would not recommend
that. Also my plugin refuses to control an AVR unless the Squeezebox
audio output is fixed at 100%.

On my setup, I have a modfied version of Michael Herger's MusicInfoScr
set to display volume on my SB3 in terms of Denon dBs instead of SB
0-100. My whole family is now quite comfortable thinking in decibels.
;-) That will only work right if my plugin knows the actual amp max
volume, as it translates the fictional Squeezebox volume into what it
thinks the amp volume should be; if the amp allows volume +18 dB but my
plugin thinks it maxes out at 0 dB, then it would show 0 dB on the SB
screen for everything from 0 dB to +18 dB.

** FWIW Yamaha's YNCA TCP protocol also rejects things like volume
changes when the AVR is in standby.

2021-05-18 Thread peterw


David, of you occasionally want to use other sources, I don't understand
why you wouldn't want the Squeezebox output fixed at 100% so that only
the AVR volume level changes. With SB audio output fixed at 100%, the
Squeezebox volume becomes this fictional thing, and plugins like ours
react to the Squeezebox fictional volume changing by changing the real
AVR volume. Then there's no worry that you'll face some dramatic change
in speaker volume when you change AVR inputs. You definitely don't want
the Squeezebox output level changing if your amp ever uses other audio
sources.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] StatusFirst plugin problem

2021-05-16 Thread peterw


This should be fixed in version 2.1.9 which I published today.

StatusFirst was trying to do the right thing, but some time after LMS
verison 7.4, the method it uses to show information (the showBriefly()
client API) changed and required different usage for "Jive" players like
Touch and Radio. So on Jive players StatusFirst prevented the status
change but failed to display the current information.

I've verified version 2.1.9 works again on a Radio and a touchscreen
piCorePlayer, so I fully expect it would also work on a Touch.

(Yes, I know this is a 7-year-old thread.)

Wow. Yuck. BTW, I recently aquired a Yamaha AVR and boy, their
documentation is *so* much nicer. They have a single document for the
YNCA protocol
(https://www.sdu.se/pub/yamaha/yamaha-ynca-receivers-protocol.pdf) that
explicitly documents the difference between models. 

FYI, my 2309CI responds to ZMON, PWON, PWSTANDBY, and ZMOFF as you
describe.

FYI, my setup (ser2net on Raspbian using a USB/RS232 dongle to expose
the AVR as a TCP service) would give me "garbage" control characters if
ser2net was configured to expose the serial port in "telnet" mode. It
looks like using ser2net "raw" mode fixes this problem (my plugin also
has a routine to strip anything outside ASCII 0x20-0x7F, so it is able
to also work with ser2net telnet mode).

Based on info like
http://assets.eu.denon.com/DocumentMaster/DE/AVR2113CI_1913_PROTOCOL_V02.pdf
my code expects that it could use a command like "Z2?" to query status
of Zone 2. Here's what my AVR (an old 2309CI) just gave me for "Z2?" :

Z2TV/CBL
Z240
Z2OFF

Beautiful, right?

Except that you have to power cycle the AVR? Do you maintain a
persistent TCP connection or connect, send, process responses, and then
disconnect? Because my AVR will eventually (usually pretty soon) respond
to normal "?" query and other commands if I just disconnect my TCP
connection to the serial port server. (I have no idea if the 'ser2net'
serial port software maintains a connection to the RS232 port.)

Don't let that stop you! "Enable Amp Status Polling" is a configurable
option (as is the frequency with which the amp is polled, and the
frequency can be different for active** and inactive modes). Turn amp
status polling off and it will still take action promptly when the LMS
player volume or muting or power state changes -- LMS just won't
recognize when somebody has used a Denon remote or the big volume knob
to change the AVR volume. 

I rely heavily on polling personally just because there's some
poltergeist in my home theater room repeating any Slim Devices code like
crazy. I spent a day swapping out SB3s, covering reflective surfaces,
etc., trying to identify what was IR-bombinng my player before giviing
up, turning off IR remote processing for the SB3, and switching the
universal remote to use the Denon IR commands.  But I also often
use a phone or tablet app to change the volume via LMS.

BTW, I've been thinking more about experimenting with your plugin
lately, too. I've had my AVR more than a decade but have only recently
been considering using the Quick Select buttons, spurred by this long
thread (which also got me to finally support muting, which I had
abandoned and forgotten after doing half the required work years ago). 

-Peter

** For my plugin, "active" apparently*** means "has seen a recognized IR
command recently" -- IIRC when I initially wrote this I saw that the SB3
recognized the raw IR command codes of some other devices (though it had
no mapping so didn't act on any of them), and thought if the SB3 saw
somebody interacting with someting like the TV, then it was pretty
likley that somebody was in the room and more likley than usual that
somebody would turn the AVR volume knob.

*** There's nothing quite like reading old source code to figure out
something you once knew but have completely forgotten!

I've seen something similar, but far more frequently, sometimes just a
small number of minutes apart and while the AVR was powered on.

It's been so long since I dealt with this, but several versions back in
my DenonSerial plugin I added logic to clear my command queue and close
my TCP or serial connection for any given AVR if LMS had sent a command
but had not seen a response in the last 10 seconds -- once that much
time had elapsed, I knew not to expect a response. 

In January 2021, my 10 second timeout was reached only four times, and I
think back then I had the same basic configuration as today, with LMS
polling my AVR every 30 seconds (commands MV?, SI?, and PW? since I use
the master zone). In previous months I've seen timeouts more frequently,
but I expect that's because in the past I sent more commands (I used to
control home theater volume by sending Slim Devices codes to my SB3 and
relying on LMS + DenonSerial to relay those to the AVR, but now in the
home theater our normal IR remote sends Denon commands and we rely on
the every-30-second polling to let LMS know about the change.)
Unfortunately I have not been logging the specific commands I've been
sending, even in these hang situations.

I'm using an AVR 2309CI which only has an RS232 port, so I have a
Raspberry Pi running 'ser2net' on Raspbian to allow me to communicate
with the AVR over basic TCP.

Yes. Also recall I'm hijacking a bit here and discussing my plugin, in
hopes that my experience w/ iPeng will help you all better support iPeng
users with your plugin. (My plugin actually refuses to take any action
unless the Squeezebox player volume is fixed at 100%.) 

The problem, it turns out, is that this is what would happen:
* I use the iPeng slider to set the volume to 71/100. My plugin sends a
command to the AVR like MV58 and all is well.
* I double-tap the iPeng slider to mute. My plugin saw Squeezebox volume
change to -71/100, treats that like 0/100, sends a command to the AVR
like MV99 and all is well.
* My plugin polls the AVR (sends MV?), gets a response of MV99, knows
that means SB volume 0/100, so it updates the SB player volume pref to
0. (My plugin can be set to poll the AVR so that LMS sees changes made
with the amp knob or other Denon interactions.)
* iPeng sees the SB volume pref has changed from -71 to 0 and moves the
slider handle to 0.

In my upcoming release, when my code sees the AVR volume at 0 and a
negative SB volume pref, it leaves the SB volume pref alone. With this
change, iPeng 9 can toggle AVR muting.

FYI, iPeng (version 9, at least), effectively toggles muting if you
double-tap its onscreen volume slider. Under the covers it's setting the
player volume to 0 when muting, which works (and which I like -- my old
AVR has a relay clicking noise when you use the Denon MUON and MUOFF
commands, but setting the volume to zero [99] with normal volume
commands is silent). The iPeng volume slider handle remains in place,
and double-tapping again restores the old player volume. 

(With my DenonSerial plugin, un-muting has a problem, which is that
DenonSerial's periodic AVR polling causes iPeng to forget the old
volume, so that you can't just double-tap to restore the old volume.
Un-muting with iPeng works fine if you do that  before the next AVR
poll, but not after.)

When you import your new definition, be sure to give it a new "name"
value, otherwise it will replace whatever definition already has that
name.

Once you've imported it via Custom Clock Helper, you should be able to
pick it from the Custom Clock settings in Jivelite.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Denon AVP Control Plugin

2021-01-02 Thread peterw


DAR,

For Android, try the app Squeezer - it allows changing the Squeezebox
volume when the SB output is fixed at 100%. Plays well with iPeng and my
DenonSerial plugin.

Have you tried my DenonSerial plugin? I've always been under the
impression that Chris' AVP control was nicer, but if it's giving you
trouble, you might want to give mine a try. As for the web UI softer
button, I think my plugin might take a different approach because I
don't think it has any such problem. IIRC (and I haven't touched the
code much in the last decade), my plugin always deals with absolute
volume levels so there's no square root of negative problem. E.G. my
plugin allows others to decrease the fictional SB volume and then
calculates what the Denon volume should be, and connects to the Denon to
effect that.

And yes the plugin name is a misnomer: it can connect to the Denon over
TCP/IP (I use a Raspberry Pi with ser2net exposing the Denon RS232 port
as a simple unencrypted TCP service.)

Good luck.

Yikes, thanks for catching that! I'll improve the logic and PM you when

Weird. I just copied the installed tree and created a local git repo.
Checked everything in, edited strings.txt since it includes diacritical

How should I submit a patch for consideration?

I just installed a personal weather station that's feeding into Weather
Underground, so I've modified my SDT to include options for rounded
Feels Like ("heatIndex") temperatures from WU.** Just six lines in
Plugin.pm and three in strings.txt...

I'm using the https://sourceforge.net/projects/sdt-weather-com repo but
it seems the code repo isn't actually hosted at sourceforge as
https://git.code.sf.net/p/sdt-weather-com/code is empty.

Thanks!

** All I personally want is rounded Fahrenheit and there are so few %
letters unused that I just added % codes for rounded F and rounded C.

Wait. Custom Clock is an applet for Radio/Touch/Jive. Custom Clock
*Helper* is the server plugin. You might manually put the
CustomClockHelper folder in the server Plugins directory (and edit the
files if using LMS 8?), but CustomClock goes on the player.

On IP3K players (Classic, Boom, etc.), PlayLog *does *add a menu to
Extras which offers a "Songs played here" list of the last 50(?) songs.
I never bothered to create a menu for Jive players (Touch, Radio, etc.)
as I didn't use them as much back when I created PlayLog. 

Also it's not terribly useful: you can see the items and right-arrow to
add them to the Log of songs played, but you can't Play a song again or
Add it to the current playlist, or even see more details. And the
timestamping could be more intelligent -- a string like "30:12:15m"
indicating something as played 30 days, 12 hours, and 15 minutes isn't,
I think, any more useful on the player than something like "30d12h" or
maybe even "30d" would be. (I think hours and minutes *are* nice within
the first 72 hours or so.)

[SlimDevices: Plugins] wanted: Joggler-like Touch/Jive skin with larger fonts, for IR remote use (7" pCP)

2020-05-09 Thread peterw


Before I jump in and try to make a derivative of Jivelite's Joggler skin
with larger fonts (or try to make pull request for adding font size
options), has anybody released a Jive/Touch skin like Joggler that's
remote-control friendly for 800x480 screens?

My basic desire is to double the font size for the Joggler skin. This
should make its text about the same size as is used by SB Touch in
"remote" mode, and thanks to the larger display this should mean
displaying about as much info on the 7" Jivelite player as SB Touch does
in "touch" mode.

(Of course what I'd *really* like is for Joggler skin on Jivelite on pCP
to behave like SB Touch and use larger text when it has recently been
controlled via IR codes. The current Joggler skin font size is great
when the device is being controlled via touchscreen.)

Thanks!

Peter

Thanks for writing. Looks like it's not UTF-8 encoding the characters,
which causes problems with Yahoo and most of the other actions, too. :-(


I should fix that, and maybe be nice and add Google (and maybe
DuckDuckGo, too).

[SlimDevices: Plugins] piCorePlayer: auto-save Jivelite settings periodically?

2020-04-19 Thread peterw


I just built my first touchscreen piCorePlayer and am looking for help.

On one level I love the piCorePlayer design of running from RAM so that
it's really tolerant of power problems. But I keep forgetting to SSH in
or use the web UI to "backup" everything after doing things like
adjusting the settings of Jivelite or an applet (hello, Custom Clock),
so that I end up losing work & tweaks when pCP reboots. I guess I could
use a cron job to back up everything, but is there a way to just save
what Jivelite needs?

Thanks!

Web and IP3K (SB3/Classic/Boom/etc.) interface only. On IP3K players

It works pretty well with Spotty and similar services that have unique
track URLs (you can choose to play a specific song again). But for other
services like SomaFM that have a single URL but change their metadata as
new tracks start, it can only log the metadata and approximate start
times, and offer things like web searches based on the song or artist
name.

This will be key, and has burned me before when migrating to a new
server and copying files over. LMS needs write access to the playlist
directory for PlayLog to log data.

IIRC there were only two directories which LMS was expected to have
writer privileges for: the playlist directory and the cache directory. I
chose the playlist directory because I thought many users might from
time to time delete their cache directories but would be unlikely to
empty their playlist directories.

Please check the server log after restarting LMS to see if it contains
any hints. Over here I'm running version 2.1.46 on LMS 7.9.2 -
1557815622. That's a fairly new release of PlayLog (May of this year) so
you might check that, too, and consider adding my "tux reborn" repo to
your settings to stay up-to-date. But I expect it should work OK,
respect your old settings, and be able to use the data it previously
logged.

Most recent changes, from my repo data:
2.1.46: fix bug detected with logging Don't Stop The Music; 
2.1.45: fix URL truncation in list, update search URLs; 
2.1.42: address deprecation warnings in newer Perl versions;

If that doesn't work (I don't see that in /html/docs/help.html), then
try the "lineIn", "lineInAlwaysOn", and "lineInLevel" player
preferences. The first two appear to be booleans taking 0 or 1, so I
would think a KidsPlay line like "power 1; stop; mixer volume 30;
playerpref lineIn 1" would be about right. I'm sorry I don't have a

You should see a DenonSerial settings group on each player settings web
page. Please let me know if you have trouble - I run LMS 7.8 and have
not tried 7.9 yet. It seems likely you may need to compile the Perl
serial module code if you're using direct serial and running LMS on
something other than Windows - I switched years ago to the TCP
connection, using a Raspberry Pi as a serial port server.

 But I didn't find that list anywhere.

FWIW PlayLog allows you to mark individual files in the list and copy

2014-03-01 Thread peterw

tamanaco wrote: 
 gharris, thanks for your reply... Is the code above for long press sleep
 or just for a short press sleep?

IIRC, all Squeezebox IR remotes except for (some? all?) Boom remotes use
the same scheme, and that is, keep sending the same IR code as long as
the user is holding the button down. LMS has logic to treat the press as
short if the player stops relaying IR code info to LMS fairly soon
after the first code is sent. 

Some (all?) Boom remotes used a scheme whereby they'd send a
button-specific IR code when the button was first pressed, and then for
as long as the button continued to be pressed, they'd send a different
IR code. That second IR code was the same for all buttons, and
essentially was meant to tell Boom+LMS that the user hadn't stopped
pressing the button yet. Technically, I think this ditto IR code
(which I think was an industry standard) required less energy because it
was shorter in length (fewer pulses of light), and therefore looked like
a smart idea for a small remote with an expensive, disposable battery. I
think Logi/SlimDevices at some point started building the Boom remotes
to use the old school (non-ditto) behavior.

Physical buttons on Boom (and Squeezebox Receiver) are treated
differently -- the player sends LMS indication of both the button being
pressed (down) and the button being released (up). AFAIK there's no
way to trigger those messages with an IR code sent to the player's IR
receiver.

 ... Anyway, I tried teaching the long press sleep command to my Harmony
 Smart Control and it didn't work because, as I was told, newer Harmony
 remotes have no raw learn capability. I'm trying to work with Logitech
 (Harmony) support to see if they can add this command to the profile for
 that device.

1) Really, a Harmony remote that can't learn? Sounds crazy.
2) Are there multiple Squeezebox devices in the Harmony database? Since
all devices starting with at least the Squeezebox 1 support the same
codes, you could try another device. (IIRC, the SliMP3 player responded
to codes registered to another company, likely the JVC brand DVD codes
that are also generally supported on older players by LMS out of the
box. You could look at the .map and .ir files for LMS, but I don't
believe LMS recognizes a JVC sleep code.)
3) If you can't customize a Harmony remote, take a look at the world of
JP1 programmable remotes. One For All used to have nice options, but it
looks like nowadays many people resort to reprogramming Comcast's set
top box remote controls since they're cheap, plentiful, and apparently
support JP1 programming. In a couple of my rooms I've been using OFA JP1
remotes for years, with very good results.
4) For use with LMS, you might be able to program the Harmony remote to
send some other recognizabled IR code (one of those JVC DVD codes would
be good) and modify the .map (?) file for LMS to have it treated as a
sleep button. Sorry, my memory is really fuzzy here. But basically the
old IP3K players like Boom recognize most IR codes (but not all, like
they don't understand Denon's) and will relay info to LMS for most IR
codes. So it's likely you can use the .map/.ir files to have LMS
recognize a non-Squeezebox IR code as a sleep IR code.

Good luck.

I'd need to add an option to disable such queries, possibly on a

OK, thanks. I'll have to learn how to pull that code, then. 

Meanwhile 0.1.39 is in my test repo, with WOL yanked and slightly better

least daily, but I won't know if it's really working unless I'm able to
go a couple months without problems (it's detecting trouble far more
often than I actually experienced problems; maybe that should worry me).
Still, you might try that with the TCP support until I get the code

give it a try -- includes both the full-dB code for zones 2+ and my new
code that attempts to detect  clear hung queues (gives the amp 10s to
respond to the last sent command before obliterating its queue). Neither
of those is really tested (my queue hasn't hung since I added that
code). If the hung queue detection tries to do something, you'll see a
log entry like no response seen from amp in at least 10, clearing its
items from queue (yes, I forgot to add seconds to that message). Also
0.1.38 has code to deal with garbage characters that I'm now seeing,
probably (hopefully) introduced by my Pi+USB serial adapter.

Ugh. What version of LMS is this? I haven't tested anything past about
7.5 (and run older than that myself). Maybe I should be thankful that so
little has apparently changed since 7.2/7.3. (IIRC pluginRootDirs is
called when DenonSerial looks for its precompiled Device::SerialPort
libraries.)

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] DenonSerial plugin thread

2013-08-03 Thread peterw

Thanks for pointing out the wake module problem -- I had started working
on Wake On LAN support, and probably ought to just rip it out since
SBS/LMS generally doesn't have rights to forge low-level packets
anyway.

I'm disappointed that at 15:17:17 my code isn't detecting the wedged
queue.

And that's just crazy behavior from your amp IMO. My old 23xx series amp
is perfectly happy to tell me its power, volume, and source input when
it's in standby mode. Can DenonSerial turn the amp back on right after
turning it off? I could understand not replying if you manually pushed
the hard power button on the amp, but not when DenonSerial uses the
control API to put the amp in soft standby mode!

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] DenonSerial plugin thread

2013-08-01 Thread peterw

I have the same trouble occasionally -- the plugin doesn't see the
expected response and its queue gets hung. Restarting SBS/LMS fixes it.
I've been meaning to add code to detect  clear hung queues, but haven't
gotten around to it -- probably because this only happens to me once
every 6-8 weeks. That's with TCP connections to a Raspberry Pi acting as
a serial port server (as described in my edited first post for this
thread). Prior to the Pi, I was using $ software on an Atom nettop
running Windows 7. The queue hung noticeably more frequently with that
setup. My Denon is an old one that has RS232 but no Ethernet (looks like
pretty much all the current CI receivers have Ethernet now) -- so I
can't test the native Denon networking interface. I suspect anyone with
Ethernet on a Denon would be better off with Chris' AVP Control plugin,
as it uses HTTP and is probably much less likely to have such trouble.

I'll certainly post here if/when I get hung queue code that I think
should work.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Kidsplay: extend for Touch (IR)?

2012-02-26 Thread peterw

cncb;691617 Wrote: 
 Is there any way that Kidsplay could be extended for the Touch?  From
 what I understand and my testing the Touch does not recognize JVC DVD
 commands so that is not available.  What I had in mind is to respond to
 the 6 preset commands issued from a remote control as well as maybe
 holding down on remote number buttons.  I looked into the Kidsplay code
 and don't know how to react to these infrared commands from the Touch.

You're probably better off focusing on the SqueezePlay code that runs
on Touch -- on patching it so that Touch treats those codes
differently. With its 100% server/LMS focus, KidsPlay is at a real
disadvantage for Touch and Radio. First, those devices will often take
some local action that KidsPlay, at best, can reverse. For instance,
Radio's preset buttons would turn the device on and then send a command
to LMS. Anyone who wanted his Radio to remain in its old power state
when a preset button triggered a KidsPlay action was out of luck.
Second, since the local behavior can change w/ new firmware releases,
it's a hassle to make server-side KP know what it might need to do.

Good luck.

Nope. You may be able to use the old IR Blaster with such a setup. Take
a look at http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/IRBlasterDirectLink

If you upgraded to an SB Touch, bought a $10 USB-to-RS232 cable, and
used something like the the 'socat utitilty'
(http://www.dest-unreach.org/socat/) to turn the Touch into a
TCP/Serial server, you should also be able to use my plugin, and
probably Aesculus' too.

The RS232 and native TCP/Ethernet interfaces that are used by
DenonSerial and Denon AVP Control offer a huge advantage over the Denon
IR interface, as the RS232 and Ethernet interfaces allow our plugins to
set exact volumes and determine the Denon's volume. The IR interface is
one-way (SBS, plugins, and applets can't determine how loud the amp
already is) and crude -- all you can send are Volume Up and Volume Down
commands (and some sort of Mute command -- serial/TCP allow discrete
Mute On and Mute Off, but I don't know about Denon's IR codes).

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Denon AVP Control Plugin

2011-02-23 Thread peterw

I don't know what features you need -- Chris' plugin is more advanced
than mine -- but if you can stand only having power and volume sync,
you might be able to use my DenonSerial for one amp and Chris' plugin
for the other [I'd probably switch to Chris' plugin but I'm too lazy to
add 1) my logic for respecting IR volume commands when my SB3 is off
and 2) integrating with my custom MusicInfoScr saver that displays the
volume in terms of the Denon's gain level]. DenonSerial should work
fine with two different amps with two different IP addresses, though I
haven't tested that. Myself, I just use it with a single amp that gets
an IP address only by virtue of software running on an HTPC connected
to its RS232 port.

Good luck.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Amp RS232 plugin

2011-01-23 Thread peterw

If you don't use MySqueezebox.com, then the events are pretty easy to
trap in Squeezebox Server plugins. You might even simply be able to use
my DenonSerial plugin in subscribe mode and have your applet subscribe
to the messages DenonSerial sends. E.G. when the amp needs to come on,
DenonSerial will send a message indicating that PWON needs to be
sent; when the amp should go off, DenonSerial indicates PWSTANDBY.

Would you mind sharing your code? I had always intended/hoped to write
an applet companion for DenonSerial that would leverage DenonSerial's
subscribe model to allow a cheap Prolific or FTDI serial adapter to
connect a Touch to an amp, but never got around to it...

 again, I get no switching.

So this may be a general problem with powerline commands. Have you
plugged in any new electrical devices lately? Moved any circuits (e.g.
so that your amp and CM11A are on different sides of your breaker
box)?

 I had noticed that I needed previously to run chmod a+rw /dev/ttyS0 on
 server startup to get things working again, though there were no
 permissions errors in the logs I could see, but nothing has been
 changed as far as I'm aware since the power cycle this morning - prior
 to which it was all working fine.

You should get a does not exist or is not usable error from
PowerCenter if the permissions were not right.

 If I check the running processes, there is an entry for heyu_relay thats
 seems to hang about - is this correct or is it hanging for some reason?

That sounds right. 

 Any more ideas of where to look?

I'd start with trying to get heyu working outside PowerCenter/SBS. It
sounds like you may have general problems sending commands, which could
be a device causing interference (I have to put filters on all my
UPSes), trouble with your CM11A, or something else. Not very fun, I
know.

riemers;569212 Wrote: 
 You mean udp of some sort?

No, it's TCP. I stand corrected on Chris' plugin -- despite the http
string, it looks like his plugin is also using the text-based simple
telnet interface -- connect to TCP port 23 and each side exchanges
strings terminated by carriage returns. (I should look at that code
again -- are you using perl Async http libraries to get async TCP
responses? That would be awesome.) So I understand -- my Denon has
rs232 but not Ethernet, and I've only used telnet by way of a laptop
connected to the rs232 port and running serial port server software
to allow TCP connections to the rs232 port. It seems very odd that your
amp only listens for http (obvious from its responses) and not the
simple telnet protocol. Are you sure there's no firewall or packet
filter in the way? BTW, telnet's not a very good choice for interactive
debugging the Denons b/c the use of simple carroage returns without line
feeds means in apps like Hyperterminal and minicom you just see the same
line overwritten again and again.

2010-08-15 Thread peterw

Aesculus;569306 Wrote: 
 Peter: I am using PERL async libraries that someone pointed me to years
 ago. Don't get too excited from the Denon point of view because it
 seems to have problems working in the async world.  It likes someone to
 grab the interface and stick to it from what I can see. So I constantly
 run into problems overrunning it with multiple requests, even when I
 wait a 1/2 second or more between requests. Still trying to figure that
 one out.

Hmm, guess no great reason to switch, then. I'm wrestling the same
problems with RS232 -- and for my gear I think I've ended up with
pretty good default timing, including when I use a network serial port
server (app) to make my amp accessible via TCP port 23. My favorite
part is that it seems the amp queues up informational messages if the
user uses the amp buttons or IR to make changes, so sometimes you'll
issue a command that should result in 4 response lines but instead
you'll get 10. My notes are in my code:

Code:

my $minTimeBetweenCommands = 0.1;   # delay after getting a response 
(seconds)
  my $responseDelay = 0.15;   # wait this long after command before 
expecting response (seconds)
  my $maxSerialWait = 0.25;   # wait this long after serial command 
before giving up (seconds)
  # (also wait for ($numberOfResponseLinesReceived * $maxSerialAdditionalWait)
  # MV?, PW?, and SI? all tend to return in  0.10 secs
  # CV? often takes about 0.39 sec, but we don't issue that command
  my $maxSerialAdditionalWait = 0.09; # after one response, treat a delay 
this long as indication that response is done (seconds)
  # (worst I've seen with a 2310CI amp is about 0.05 sec)



Denon's protocol is much better than some other's -- but maybe this is
what Sean Adams should be working on now, a good network-capable amp
with a stable, modern, multithreaded control interface. :-)

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Help getting PowerCenter working again after 7.5.1 u/g

2010-08-11 Thread peterw

My first guess is that the problem is due to the change in Unix
usernames. 7.3 was SqueezeCenter, but 7.5 is Squeezebox Server. I don't
run the packaged versions of the software (and in fact still run 7.3 in
production, though I have 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 on my test/dev system), but
did the Unix user account that's used for SBS change from
'squeezecenter' to 'squeezeboxserver' or something? I expect you have a
heyu/heyu_relay process still running with the old SC 7.3 user, and
that's preventing the SBS 7.5 user account from sending commands
properly. Your device permissions are probably fine, or PowerCenter
would have complained about that. 

The fix should be as simple as stopping/killing any running
heyu/heyu_relay processes so that the next time PowerCenter needs to
invoke it, it will start a heyu_relay process running as the new SBS
user account.

 You can't change the standard menus in SqueezePlay products (including
 Radio), other than add/remove MyApps to the main menu :-(

Perhaps it would be possible by patching the Squeezeplay Lua code on
Radio/Touch?

 Maybe, but the bug really is in the SBS code:
 http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14971
 
 I think it will be solved with the onebrowser work Logitech is
 working on for the 7.6 release

Really? Logitech has consistently said onebrowser intially only
impacted music library browsing, so if you want to do something like
hide the Settings menu, onebrowser should change nothing. And does/will
onebrowser include
hooks for things like your example of removing stock menu items? Just
because there's a unified Perl codebase for cli/web/sp/ip3k doesn't
mean 3rd party code will be able to override it. And since SBS on
Windows (unlike SP on Radio/Touch/Controller) effectively cannot be
patched, onebrowser might make it worse for customizing.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Kidsplay - Radio max. kidsplayvolume not applicable

2010-06-15 Thread peterw

 I've set the kidsplayvolume max. value to 50, but it has no effect on

The max  min only apply to the kidsplayvolume CLI command. For
instance if you set Preset #1 to decrease the volume with
kidsplayvolume -5 and Preset #2 to increase the volume with
kidsplayvolume +5, then pressing either of those buttons would never
result in a volume outside the KidsPlay min/max range (increasing if
needed to reach the min and decreasing if needed to stay under the
max). 

The KidsPlay min  max don't apply to changes made with Radio's volume
knob. If you want to set a maximum volume that applies to the knob, you
can mostly do that with VolumeLock. VolumeLock doesn't completely
prevent Radio being turned too loud with the knobs on Radio or an IR
remote pointed at Radio, but if someone turns the volume above the
VolumeLock max, VolumeLock will pretty quickly turn the volume back
down to your max setting.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] IR Blaster - Source Selection?

2010-06-10 Thread peterw

Jayhawk;553944 Wrote: 
 
 Scenario: Source inputs to HK amp are SB3 and another AVR.  HK is
 driving speakers at an outdoor hottub.  The hottub is outdoors with a
 picture window looking into the FamilyRm that has a large flatpanel on
 wall (so can watch TV from the hottub).  Want to use Duet Controller
 from the hottub to switch hottub speakers between SB3 music source and
 AVR/TV audio so can hear TV audio instead of SB3 audio when watching TV
 from the hottub.
 
 Is there a way to get IRBlaster to react to another Duet Controller
 button?

IIRC, IR Blaster provides CLI commands for sending IR codes, so I'd
suggest something like an SBS plugin that provides a
Jive/Controller/Squeezeplay interface for changing sources. Select a
source from this new menu on Controller and your new plugin would
execute IR Blaster CLI commands to send commands to the HK. You could
also write this as an applet running on Controller, using Lua code on
Controller to send the IR Blaster CLI command via Comet. I think a
plugin makes more sense (an applet by default would show the choice
even if you were using MySqueezebox.com, in which case it wouldn't
work), but the biggest issue is probably whether you'd rather write
Perl or Lua code.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] IR Blaster - Source Selection?

2010-05-29 Thread peterw

 Using duet controller and SB3 receiver.  From what I've read, it appears
 that IR Blaster is intended to send only power on/off and vol up/dwn
 commands.  I need to send a source selection cmd to the AVR.
 
 1. Is it possible to have IR Blaster provide a way to send more
 commands than the 4 commands indicated?

You may need to unpack the source (the .par file is basically a .zip
file) and modify it. In lib/Plugins/IRBlaster/Settings.pm there's this
line

Code:

my $gMaxItemsPerAction  = 5;# IR commands per action 
(on/off/volup/voldown) in webinterface


I think I changed that years ago when first setting up IR Blaster and
needing to send more commands, and it did the trick. I'm pretty sure IR
Blaster is happy to send any commands that are in the LIRC files. 

Alternately, you can probably shut down SBS and edit
prefs/plugin/irblaster.prefs by hand (the _command, _remote, _count,
and _delay values).

Once you have things set up, you can probably switch back to the
official IR Blaster release.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] DenonSerial plugin thread

2010-05-21 Thread peterw

TechHome;549453 Wrote: 
 Seems friendly enough to me.

OK, I'll take a look at that.

 This sounds great!  I'm amazed at how little interest there seems to be
 in apps like this and IR Blaster.  IMO, the SB receiver would be an
 ideal unit to hide away in a closet with an integrated amp or receiver
 but is a non-starter since it has no equivalent functionality to IR
 blaster.  With the requirement to purchase a Global Cache or Sena unit
 AND a SB Touch, I start to question whether the cost is worth it. 
 Replacing the GC-100 or Sena with the SB Touch plus USB to serial
 adapter is a big step in the right direction.

I think there is a fair amount of interest in these sort of extensions
-- Logitech staff have even admitted publicly that omitting IR Blasting
capability from Receiver was a mistake. (But I don't know how to
reconcile that with Touch repeating the mistake; maybe they're really
embarcing Apple's 80% design mantra.)

I've been looking again at Lua coroutine information, and it really
looks like it shouldn't be too hard to make it work, at least for
DenonSerial -- I just have to overcome the inertia of having not yet
written an applet. 

I think it would also be very cool to offer something for Touch that
would turn Touch into a replacement for a Sena LS-100 -- that is,
something that would act as a TCP-to-serial bridge and not care what
sort of RS232 device was connected; unfortunately it looks like that
would need to be a standalone application and not merely a Squeezebox
applet, due to the design of the Lua network socket APIs. Since
Logitech doesn't include the standard Lua interpreter on Touch, it
would need to nbe compiled code, and I've never much liked setting up
cross-compiling environments (and have enjoyed taking a break from C
and C++ code).

Finally, it would be cool to have a 100% applet version of DenonSerial
so Touch would retain control over the amp even if using its internal
server or MySqueezebox.com. But I haven't been terribly motivated
because I don't need those sorts of things myself.

 Please don't do any of this for me.  I don't own a SB Touch or an RS-232

No sweat. Adding the extra commands was easy; that's now in 0.1.36.
Hard to argue with the price of that Onkyo, but, man, I'm so happy with

 You mention the Sena LS110 to provide RS-232 control when the SB server
 machine is not located near the controlled Denon receiver.  Any chance
 the Global Cache products, such as the GC-100 would also work?

I hadn't heard of them before, but I think so. Looks like you'd just
need to set up the GC-100 to use 9600 bps 8N1 for the serial port and
tell DenonSerial to use a host like 10.1.2.3:4999 (port 4999 being the
TCP/IP port for the first GC-100 serial port). Please let me know how
it goes if you try this. If you ave trouble, please set the Squeezebox
Server plugin.DenonSerial logging level to DEBUG and show me what it
says when you try changing the Squeezebox volume.

 Does your Denon Serial plugin similarly allow multiple control events
 to be associated with power-on and power-off?

Currently, no. How user-friendly would you need this to be? Wouold it
be acceptable to have text-fields in the web settings for extra RS232
commands when the SB is turned on or off where you'd enter things like
*Z2MUON; SIDVD; MUOFF* to mute zone 2, switch the input to DVD, and
un-mute the main zone? (These commands are from the Denon RS232
documentation.)

For over a year now I've meant to develop a Touch applet that would let
you use a $10 USB-to-serial adapter so Touch itself could relay these
commands to the Denon serial port (instead of something like the GC-100
or Sena boxes), but I haven't gotten around to it.

Also search here for SqueezeCLIHandler, a plugin I just released in my
test repository a few days ago that would let you save playlists
containing commands. You'll probably want to apply my patch for bug
16188 to make it work well. And you'll need to figure out how to make
privileged commands like shutdown work, since SBS does not run as

[SlimDevices: Plugins] How to install 3rd-party plugins for SB Touch's Squeezebox Server instance

2010-04-16 Thread peterw

Note: this isn't supported by Logitech, and won't survive firmware
updates. Also some plugins won't work -- some won't load in Touch's SBS
instance because they assume the Web UI will be available and blindly
try to call APIs that aren't available on Touch; others may have
architectural dependencies (for instance, my DenonSerial plugin on
Linux requires a compiled version of the Device::SerialPort Perl
module, and does not bundle a copy compiled for the Touch/ARM
architecture). Many plugins, especially older plugins, cannot be fully
configured without the Web interface. 

Also, there is *very* little free RAM on Touch -- the device only has
128 MB of RAM, and I've seen it use about 115-125 MB to run the
built-in Squeezebox Server instance alongside the normal Touch player
software. Some plugins might need more than the 5-10 MB of unallocated
RAM that is available on Touch. Push it too far and Touch will
crash/reboot. There doesn't seem to be any easy way to create a
page/swap file to give you some breathing room (at the expense of
performance). If you really want an ultra-lower power, compact server,
you're probably better off with a SheevaPlug -- since about half of
Touch's memory is need for the player software (jive and jive-alsa) and
SheevaPlug has twice the installed RAM, it should be a much better
server platform. Caveat hacker.

What you'll need:

- 'Squeezebox Touch'
  
(http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002LARRDA?ie=UTF8tag=petesstuf-20linkCode=as2camp=1789creative=390957creativeASIN=B002LARRDA)
  (note:  Amazon affiliate code shamelessly embedded in URL)
- A computer for copying the plugin to Touch.
- For that computer, an SCP client program like WinSCP for Windows
- For that computer, a Telnet client (Windows, Mac, Linux all include
  command-line Telnet clients)
  

What to do:

- Download the plugin's zip file. If the author hasn't provided an
  easy way to find the link, you may need to examine some Squeezebox
  Server repository XML files. Logitech hosts a few on
  MySqueezebox.com: 'Logitech extensions'
  (http://test.mysqueezebox.com/public/plugins/logitech.xml),
  'Recommended extensions'
  (http://test.mysqueezebox.com/public/plugins/repository.xml), and
  'Other 3rd-party extensions'
  (http://test.mysqueezebox.com/public/plugins/other.xml). Here's the
  XML for my current VolumeLock plugin (the latest version of the first
  plugin I ever wrote, finishing it before I even received my
  Squeezebox):

Code:

plugin name=VolumeLock creator=Watkins, Peter 
email=pet...@tux.org 
link=http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/VolumeLock.html; maxTarget=7.* 
minTarget=7.0 sha=144a84253a1e1dc7b97b06bc80cc7d831c0542e7

url=http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/slim7/VolumeLock/VolumeLock-2.1.15.zip; 
version=2.1.15
changes lang=EN
2.1.15: fixed volume  unmuting in 7.4/Radio; 2.1.14: more 7.4 fixes, new 
approach for Radio and Touch; 2.1.12: initial fixes for 7.4, but do NOT try to 
lock or cap the volume of a Touch or Radio (or Controller)!
/changes
desc lang=EN
Allows you to lock the analog and digital output levels of any Squeezebox, 
Transporter, or SliMP3. Can either prevent any changes in volume, or simply set 
a maximum volume. (Boom, Classic, Radio, Receiver, Slimp3, SoftSqueeze, 
Squeezebox1, Touch, Transporter)
/desc
title lang=ENVolumeLock/title
/plugin


  The plugin tag tells you it's a plugin (and not an applet,
  wallpaper image, etc.) The url attribute of that first plugin tag
  tells you where my zip file is (the minTarget says it should work on
  Squeezebox Server 7.0 or newer, and maxTarget says it should work on
  any 7.x version. Touch runs SBS 7.5, so this plugin is a good
  candidate.
-  Unzip the zip file on your computer. You should end up with a
  directory with the plugin's name (e.g. VolumeLock). The directory
  will have an install.xml file and some other content, possibly
  other subdirectories.
- Make sure remote login is enabled for your Touch. On Touch itself,
  use Home  Settings  Advanced  Remote login and check the Enable
  SSH box. 
-  Use your SSH client to log in to your Touch (use Home  Settings 
  Advanced  Diagnostics to find the IP address for your Touch)
- Use your SCP client to copy the unzipped folder to the
  /usr/squeezecenter/Plugins directory on Touch (so you should end up
  with a new directory on Touch like
  /usr/squeezecenter/Plugins/VolumeLock).
- On Touch, use Home  Settings  Advanced  Squeezebox Server and
  stop Touch's SBS instance. Wait patiently for it to stop.
- On Touch, use Home  Settings  Advanced  Squeezebox Server and
  start Touch's SBS instance. Wait patiently for it to start.
- With your SCP client, browse to /etc/squeezecenter/prefs on Touch.
  You should now see a folder named plugin or plugins and inside
  that you should see a file named after the plugin you just installed,
  e.g. VolumeLock.prefs.
-  I would suggest you go

 Is it possible to use CLI commands to navigate thru menus? I'd like to
 assign a macro to a preset button, that I'd jump right away to My Music
 album view.

On Radio and Touch, probably not. On Boom and Classic/SB3/Transporter,
it should be possible.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Kidsplay - Two word genre names

 Two word genre names like #8220;General Rock#8221; will not be

 Any idea how to encapsulate a two word string?

In KidsPlay, use quotation marks, e.g. 
Code:

randomplaychoosegenre General Rock 1;

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] IR Blaster - Suggestion

2010-01-25 Thread peterw

chrism;510216 Wrote: 
 
 I have thought of an idea.
 
 ...receive an arbitary IR signal through its receiver and in response
 issue one or more arbitary commands through its headphone socket.
 
 This would allow me (for example) to press power-on on my DVD remote
 and in response, the SB to issue an amp on, amp input select, tv input
 select and dvd on command. True macro functionality using supplied
 remotes and my squeezebox for not a lot of money!
 
 Thoughts?

IR Blaster 5.4 defines an 'irblaster' 'send' CLI command. If you can
program your remote to send JVC DVD codes, then you many be able to set
this up without writing a single line of Perl code. Use KidsPlay to map
specific JVC DVD IR codes to sequences of 'irblaster' 'send' CLI
commands. The usage for 'irblaster send' is 
Code:

irblaster send device button

 but I'm not sure what those values should look like. To find out, set
IRBlaster logging to debug and send the commands. The value for device
is the remoteName in the log's IRBlastSend entry (the button value is
labeled button in an IRBlastSend log entry).

Good to hear. I'm considering a couple more changes for kidsplayexec to
address security concerns. I'm trying to get my head around all the ways
someone might abuse this new CLI command so I can make improvements to
better protect everyone. There might be both setup changes (e.g. a
different way of enabling kidsplayexec) and usage changes (e.g. needing
to pass a server-specific PIN as an argument to kidsplayexec).
