Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Playlist management plug-in?
The playlist manager plug in now allows me to add radio stations (URLs) to my designated categories. Philip, thank you very much for the attention that you gave to this feature. It now makes it very convenient for my needs. -- Ikabob Ikabob Squeezebox Touch w/SBS; SAE Amplifier;Marantz Pre-amp;ESS Heil Speakers(main listening speakers plus various additional speakers).

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Playlist management plug-in?
I don't think that error has got anything to do with the plugin. I tested a bit further, and now realise that my change only works for some stations. It supports Remote Tracks (a radio station that has a single url track attribute), but when some radio stations are played they are Remote Playlists, i.e. a collection of tracks that are remote. For for example, I can play Radio 1 and then add the station to a playlist, but if I play "Radio Paradise" radio station, this doesn't work. I've made a quick fix which stores the first Remote Track within a Remote Playlist. Not sure if I should be iterating through a Remote Playlist to add all Remote Tracks. I'll dosome more testing - if it appears better, I'll push out another version (probably weekend). ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Playlist management plug-in?
However, it was easy to support radio stations for items in playlists, including the Now Playing playlist. Thus, if you play a radio station, you will be able to select "Add To..." from the item in the current playlist, and then add it to another playlist. If this is good enough for you, I'll publish a new version soon. Phil Philip, I am still very interested in the feature for "Playlist Manager" whereby radio stations can be added to a specific playlist. As I indicated, I have several radio station playlists for specific genres ( football games in various fb cities, classical stations, opera stations, talk radio stations, etc.). Every once in a while I happen to come across a new station that I would like to add to a playlist and I can do this by a process whereby I override the playlist and then confirm this override . It is an inconvenient process so it would be much more convenient with the "Playlist Manager" plugin. You had indicated that it might be relatively easy to add this feature. I would appreciate the consideration. Thank you very much.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Playlist management plug-in?
Thank you Phil for the personal attention that you give to my request. The only part of your recent response that I understood was the last paragraph I am sorry but I'm not real swift when it comes to technological terminology.? The last paragraph is what I'm after and ,yes, it sounds perfect for my use.

I bookmarked radio stations into Favorites, and then moved them into a structure, (i.e. you can create a sub-folder called Radio Stations, and then within that a sub-folder for Talk Radio, Classical, Football, etc). Then I copied the .opml content into the .opml file used by the "My Radio Stations" plugin, as this is better than keeping all radio stations in Favorites. I still have some radio stations in Favorites, but only my favorite ones ;-) That I feel is better than holding radio stations in playlists, which are flat in structure. But anyway, I have had a quick look at my plugin, and the SBS code that I could hook into. I've hit a stumbling block with supporting the Add To... context menu when browsing Internet Radio, as this is handled differently to the local music library Browse functions. I may be able to find a workaround to integrate a bit better, but will take a bit more time. However, it was easy to support radio stations for items in playlists, including the Now Playing playlist. Thus, if you play a radio station, you will be able to select "Add To..." from the item in the current playlist, and then add it to another playlist.

To be honest, I've never thought of making it work with radio stations; I access radio stations in a different way so never put them in playlists. It might be a simple fix to add, not sure.
