I'm at a computer with LMS open in a browser. I have a playlist loaded. I can select each track one at a time in the right hand frame, click on the more icon, then click on the file link in the left hand frame, then select save in the pop-up. Each file can be saved to the browser's download directory. Rather than three mouse-clicks for each file, I'm interested in a plugin that will automate the process of downloading all of the files in the playlist. jstraw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17008 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103879 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

As far as i remember that dont download a bunch of was discussed long time ago. current state is : lms is a music streaming server if someone add that feature you may can use it as filesharing software and then the radar is on lms. why dint you wrote your own simple script for that?

I believe most users simply share their music folders using samba/nfs/whatever and access files this way. Thanks for the reply. My interest is in accessing files of my own, that I've favorited and added to a playlist as part of my own workflow. Once I've used LMS to earmark a set of files for use, I need to have copies of those files in another location. I'm doing that one file at a time, as described above. Tanscoding isn't necessary and I've got control over what's in the playlist and they're all local files. I've never used the CLI for LMS.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Is there a plugin that will download all tracks in a playlist through the browser?
Well, tutorials... you're better off searching the forums I guess. The CLI is detailed in LMS, under Help Technical Information Command Line Interface (bottom left of the LMS main screen), the API is probably still mostly correct, but the doc was written at a time the CLI was accessed via telnet. Nowadays the JSON protocol is used, and the way to craft/process a JSON transaction depends very much on the scripting language you're using. (I for one have posted over the years a few simple perl scripts performing JSON queries. Python or JS seem to be a more popular option.) There might be another way of doing this. If you have a saved playlist, could you access the opml (?) file and parse it somehow? 4 SB 3 iPeng (iPhone + iPad) SqueezeLite Squeezebox Server 7.8.1 (Debian 7.5) with plugins: CD Player, WaveInput by bpa IRBlaster by Gwendesign (Felix) Server Power Control by Gordon Harris Smart Mix by Michael Herger PowerSave by Jason Holtzapple Song Info, Song Lyrics by Erland Isaksson WeatherTime by Martin Rehfeld ShairTunes by StuartUSA Local Player, BBC iPlayer, SwitchPlayer by Triode Auto Dim Display, SaverSwitcher, ContextMenu by Peter Watkins. epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103879 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Is there a plugin that will download all tracks in a playlist through the browser?
Thread title speaks for itself. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. AFAICT there's no such plugin. And it wouldn't even make sense, as this should rather be implemented client side: the web server can only send one response, eg. one file. As others mentioned before you'd have to wrap the files into one archive or the like. You'd better have a client side script which grabs the URLs from the server using the status query, then downloads one file after the other. -- Michael ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

its not important for me. I do my stuff everyone can do his stuff I prefer to be an online(r) jackass. And please take your time and read this thread tomorrow again... Thread title speaks for itself. ok and you tellin me i am the assjack? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Didnt i give you enough pointers why *download all tracks in a playlist through the browser?* is a feature that is quite tricky and other (for something like that) protokolls not available on a std. lms setup so a plugin wouldnt make sense ?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Is there a plugin that will download all tracks in a playlist through the browser?
So, to reiterate, the question was whether or not such a plugin exists. If anyone knows of one, I'd be grateful for a pointer to it. jstraw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17008 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103879 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
