Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Browse problem
Thanks, the enhancement would be most welcome. In the meantime, I have devised a workaround: I have copied my WORK tag to ALBUM, and use ALBUM instead of WORK in my custom menus. Then I have created a playlist menu and a playlist for each cd, so that I have the option to play the entire original (multi-work) album. -- darrell darrell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13460 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92809 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
[SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Browse problem
Hi, I've set up Custom Scan/Custom Browse for my collection of classical music, following the example in Erland's Wiki. I'm using LMS 7.7.1. Example: Works by Composer -Haydn --Symphony No.31 --Symphony No.45 Level 1 tag COMPOSER/COMPOSERSORT Level 2 tag WORK/WORKSORT Using the Touch interface, sitting on the Works By Composer screen (level 1), I can long-press Haydn (or select Haydn and press + on the remote) and the context menu appears, allowing me to play now, add to playlist, etc, which obviously adds both works (i.e. all 8 tracks) to the Now Playing list. However, after going to the level 2 Screen (List of works by Haydn, the two symponies in this example), a long press (or remote + button) on one of the works brings up an empty menu, so the work cannot be added to the Now Playing list. Pressing Play on the remote control adds the work (4 tracks) to the Now Playing list and begins play immediately, but the only way to add the work through the touch screen is to display the list of tracks in the work by tapping the work, then adding each track individually to the now playing list. I don't have the problem with my SB3 - the + key works, adding the selected work to the end of the playlist. Behaviour is also as expected using the web interface. The problem seems to be the empty context menu on the Touch. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- darrell darrell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13460 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92809 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Browse problem
It's a limitation of the current Custom Browse version. Currently Custom
Browse doesn't produce its own context menu, it relies on the standard
context menu. The result of this is that for object types that aren't
known to standard SBS, the context menu will be empty like you see in
your setup.
I'll put it on the list of things to look at for a future release.
I think it might work with iPeng and possibly also with some of the
other iOS and Android apps which render Add item in the context menu
themselves or as iPeng provides a way to add items without opening a
context menu at all.

Bump.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Custom Browse Problem?
I'm not sure if this is a plugin issue or a Touch problem. I browse my music by ComposerWorkAlbumTrack. When at the Work or Album level, I want to be able to play all tracks by using touch, i.e. not using the remote. Play all does nothing as far as I can see. There is also a problem with the Now Playing screen not updating when I change to a new Album. I've also mentioned this in the Touch forum. -- Phileas Phileas Lounge:(PC)TouchBenchmark DAC1Audiolab 8000PFocal 714v Study:(PC)SB3Beresford CaimanSennheiser HD580/Audiolab 8000AMission 70 Bedroom:(PC)Boom Phileas's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20367 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77565 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
