Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS on MacOS 10.15 "Catalina"?
What I ended up doing was installing iTunes into Catalina based on the suggestion earlier in the thread. Using the Retroactive app? https://github.com/cormiertyshawn895/Retroactive I still hesitate to rely on it, currently sticking with Mojave on my main computer as I want to continue Aperture. Even if it's only for a few more months... -- Michael ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Michael Thanks Michael, I am obviously aware of the lack of .xml support. I thought I did a good job job of explaining that I was able to use the workarounds to get my entire music library and LMS working great. I just simply had the issue that I was not able to recover playlists, regardless of any of the suggested workarounds. What I ended up doing was installing iTunes into Catalina based on the suggestion earlier in the thread. This 'hack' script, for lack of a better word, allowed my to install iTunes in Catalina. I am now running both the Music app and also iTunes. I have pointed LMS to the 'new' itunes .xml file and everything is working great. Not ideal to have both the Music database file and the itunes xml file, but want to see the results over a short period of time. crazybake's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7472 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111037 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

I tried > your old tip, but it did not work. There is a lot of history to this and I have not read through the old message to remember specific detaisl - so this is off the top of my head. OK the message is a bit mixed up. The following is my understanding. 1. You are using PlayHLS V2. to play HLS streams 2. You have hacked PlayHLS to use ffmpeg to just play EMM stream which have a mime type video/mpeg and suffix mp2. The EMM stream have NOTHING to so with HLS and so new plugin will not help yoru EMM stream as your stream uses a different decoder within ffmpeg. 3. PlayHLS V2 now just handles HLS streams - your EMM stream is NOT HLS probably something like plain http/MPEG-TS and so would need a significant re-write of the PlayHLS plugin to create a new Plugin - not a few lines changed in a config file. Your existing PlayEMM should still work - although the delay of 25 seconds is very strange - I suspect it could be improved with ffmpeg options. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104324 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS Prevent Sleep - macOS Catalina
The Prevent System Standby (v3.0) Plugin (line 27/28) uses the caffeinate with the -i flag (Create an assertion to prevent the system from idle sleeping) By changing the flag to -s (Create an assertion to prevent the system from sleeping. This assertion is valid only when system is running on AC power), the plugin now prevents my system from sleeping. Now that's interesting. Because the last change to that file was almost four years ago - to replace -s with -i: https://github.com/Logitech/slimserver/commit/9f1a3ec8b06bfd10693c186dca2a92c688f84159#diff-22adc3ba966f4a52b31693cb5d299c6a The commit message then said "kIOPMAssertionTypePreventSystemSleep no longer supported". -- Michael ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS Prevent Sleep - macOS Catalina
Found the problem, fixed. The Prevent System Standby (v3.0) Plugin (line 27/28) uses the caffeinate with the -i flag (Create an assertion to prevent the system from idle sleeping) By changing the flag to -s (Create an assertion to prevent the system from sleeping. This assertion is valid only when system is running on AC power), the plugin now prevents my system from sleeping. Michael, can the Prevent System Standby be updated for this? Both the -i and -s command can be run for both assertions with caffeinate -is (you can see both are working with "pmset -g assertions | grep caffeinate" Tony SBTouch ♪ SBRadio ♬ Tony T's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34544 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111304 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Streaming (Audio) from Enigma2 Receiver
Hello Dreambox and Enigma2 users, BPA has reinvented his PlayHLS Plugin. https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?103158-Announce-PlayHLS-Plugin-plugin-to-play-Apple-HLS-m3u8-stream It works even better ! Thats great. MANY THANKS But it broke the capability to play Radio Streams from Enigma2 / Dreambox Receivers for me. I striped the BPA PlayHLS 1.1 Plugin down, to only work for Enigma Streams. Unzip the archive and put it in ../Squeezeboxserver/Server/Plugin folder and restart. Since it is based on Version 1.1, FFMPEG.exe is still needed!
