Incidentally, Qobuz metada for classical music is the worst I have ever

Thanks, but sigh... 
How is it supposed to work on a Linux device? A shell script? How is it

Is the -S option enabled for MacOS? 
Would the script be just an excutable shell script?

Many thanks for your extensive work on this, a well as on Jivelite, etc.

Thanks Michael for the tremendous work you keep doing.
On Qobuz, I can see only the possibility of adding, as *Favorite* the
current *Track*, not the complete *Album* (most often a CD).
Am I missing something?

For some reason, I had the earlier 1.330.
Yes it works, thanks!
Makes Qobuz classical useable, at last!
One small suggestion: Can you separate the *Composer* from the *Artist*
by something more distinctive than a simple *comma*. How about a double
dash "--" ?

Thanks again.

What/where is 1.340 ?
I am running "Logitech Media Server Version: 7.9.2 - 1533559127 @ Mon
Aug 6 15:11:56 CEST 2018", and the Qobuz plugin version is 1.330.

Yes, indeed, but if you navigate to the Web page (in French), there is a
link: *Afficher le détail des pistes*
If you click on it, you get for the fist track:

CELLO SONATA NO. 1 IN G MINOR (DOMENICO GABRIELLI)

ROEL DIELTIENS, PERFORMER - RICHTE VAN DER MEER, PERFORMER - KONRAD

ACCENT

So the detailed information is available somewhere... Is it accessible
via some API?
(Incidentally this link *Afficher le détail des pistes* is available in
most of the albums I have seen, not just classical)

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Qobuz.com streaming plugin

2018-08-22 Thread rlsx


Hello Michael,
Thanks again for all your work, for the Squeezebox users!

A question concerning the Qobuz Plugin.
Take a baroque music title:
https://www.qobuz.com/fr-fr/album/the-cello-in-baroque-italy-gabrielli-geminiani-vivaldi-roel-dieltiens/4015023243040

Three composers: Gabrielli, Geminiani, Vivaldi,
On the squeezebox only the "Performer" is displayed (I use both hardware
Squeeezboxes and Jivelite/Squeezelite), as "Artist".
So, unless you are an expert, you don't know what's playing.
On the other hand, on the Qobuz page of the album, the composer is
explicit.

Is there a way to modify the plugin to get the composer, and somehow
prepend it to the "Performer"?

I am willing to contribute (though my knowledge of Perl is currently nil
-- I have only done Pascal, Assembly, Java, C-like and bizarre
stack-based  languages...)

Regards

Back to this problem, after a while.

I am now using v1.8.5-809. I disabled the launchctl automatic launch,
and am launching it from the command line.

Without debug options, when squeezelite crashes it posts the following
error message to the console:
-
||PaMacCore (AUHAL)|| Warning on line 520: err=''!dev'', msg=Audio
Hardware: Bad Device
||PaMacCore (AUHAL)|| Warning on line 440: err=''!dev'', msg=Audio
Hardware: Bad Device
||PaMacCore (AUHAL)|| Error on line 1316: err='-10851', msg=Audio Unit:
Invalid Property Value
-

Does this help fixing the problem?

Thanks, in advance

Thanks very much Ralphy for your constant work (I did contribute
financially trough Paypal):
*A problem with Squeezelite OSX running on a Mac-Min*i. Please help.

- I configured Squeezelite to use the HDMI output. That output goes to
an Onkyo receiver, which rceives also HDMI outputs from a coupe of other
devices (Blu-ray player, DVR.)

- When I switch HDMI inputs on the receiver, Squeezelite dies
(sometimes). I have to use launchctl to unload/reload it.

Can this problem be avoided?

Many thanks a lot Michael for this excellent plugin! (And for your
numerous contributions to Squeezebox!)

I have several improvements to suggest: I will start, in this post, with
the simplest one.

== In the Qobuz Web interface (or in the native client), when you create
a playlist, you can put whole albums in the playlist then, returning to
the playlist, you can pick which album to playback. 

== With your plugin, the whole list of tracks of the different albums is
listed together, and doesn't allow the playback of a single album.

It's a bit puzzling to have the choice between "Name" and "Sort"; the
second feels more like an attribute of the first: if someone has the
ARTISTSORT tag filled, shouldn't that be the prevailing order?

No, I meant in the cover chooser: the rectangle surrounding the
magnified album under the mouse cursor has a transparency effect that
makes reading the text harder.

A final request, clicking the Moose icon, on the Desktop, while Moose
is minimized to the tray should restore Moose and bring it to the
foreground (makes it also easier to bring it back with keyboard
shortcut.)

Thanks, in advance

Good Doctor,
- Can we have the horizontal grid order back as an option?
- Slimserver takes into account the ARTISTSORT tag, in ordering
artists, can it be the same in Moose?
- Classical titles can be fairly long and thus difficult to read with
the transparency effect of the selected albums. 

Thank you for this excellent program!

Just started testing Moose.
First off, thank you for this very nice piece of software.

Installed v0.59 on a machine connected by Wi-Fi to the server (v6.5.3)
Moose is constantly using up more than 90% of processor time, even when
the lone SB3 on the network is stopped. The background style is set to

Starting from a "Now playing" display, pressing Right-Arrow displays
the TITLE Tag, and then Down-Arrow/Up-Arrow cycle through the other
tags + some other info (such as the URL). One could very well imagine

It would be very strange if width and height were hard-coded.

Of course, this would be just one more skin.

I am a newcomer, I am not familiar with Moose or SlimFX. Can they run
as *clients* to a Slimserver running on another machine? That's a major
feature of Softsqueeze. 

I just found the *limited display* of the hardware SB3 so frustrating
that I started thinking along the lines of a "fat" client: small,
silent PC + 17" display on the wall + "improved" Softsqueeze. (Of
course, this won't help Logitech's sales, but I don't think this set up
will tempt potential SB customers!)

[SlimDevices: Plugins] A better Softsqueeze?

2007-09-24 Thread rlsx

One of the most frustrating aspects of the SB is the size of the display
(too short, not enough lines) Even the Transporter is lacking in this
respect.

Can one imagine a "skin" for Squeezesoft that would have a dozen long
lines of display? 

This display could then be put to use either:

- to display more information about the current track (I think here
about classical music: Composer, Artist, Orchestra etc.),

- or to display positional information (previous track, coming
tracks/songs etc...)

- or, simply, to display long lines without scrolling (again classical
music titles)

What is possible to do at the Softsqueeze level, without tinkering with
the server code?
