I'm sorry to hear that. I haven't used AllQuiet in ages, so I'm not
totally surprised. The infrared remote stuff is only designed to work
with older, non-Jive players: Boom, Classic, SB 1/2/3, Transporter,
probably also SliMP3 -- but the CLI command should work everywhere. 

Another option should be KidsPlay, using a macro like *ALL: power 0*,
which you could also tie to the button on a Receiver or a preset button
on Boom or Radio.

Lots of references to Radio Paradise streams in that log, but that's to
be expected, if you were trying to reload them. The log begins with a
reboot at 12:39 pm on March 28.

I don't know enough to say if the errors in the log tell us anything
useful.

2022-03-29 Thread Redrum


@RobbH

Thanks for the thoughts, I'll give them some consideration. BTW, my log
file is attached to an earlier post. Im not a great log file
interpreter. :o

My LMS is running fine, I just cannot queue radio stations, no big deal.
I also don't mind rebuilding a test system on a pi3B+ that I have laying
around.  I am going to basically build a new system to see if I can
replicate what I did to get me to this point.

Its not time wasted

I hope to get back to investigating the issues that you and i witnessed
with multiple stations in the queue. I don't think it's exclusive to
Radio Now Playing. I found that regular streams, RP streams, and RNP
streams all behaved differently.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] I broke LMS, How did I do it?, Can I fix without reinstalling?

2022-03-29 Thread RobbH


This reminds me of the issues I encountered at some point, which I
mentioned in the Radio Now Playing thread, but it's not exactly the
same. In my case, rebooting the Pi fixed the problem. That was on a Pi
running the Raspberry Pi OS, not pCP.

I wish I had some constructive ideas for you. As it is, all I can do is
pass along some random thoughts and things I might try, without any good
reason.

In the current server log, do you find any references to the RP streams
at times when they should not be in the queue?

Rather than trying to reload the RP streams, can you put some local
files in the queue, let them play through, and after play ends, reboot
the pCP?

Before you resort to rebuilding the system from scratch, it might be
interesting to try re-installing LMS as an upgrade or downgrade and see
if that makes any difference.

That's all pretty much irrational experimentation, just in case
something should happen to work. Things I would try in the absence of
any good ideas. I hope you find something that helps!

Hey Robb; 

Thanks, I couldn't find anything using samba pointed to where my LMS
data is (3rd partition on SD on Pi). I searched for "server" and "log"
via windows. Maybe someone else knows where they are stored on a pCP and
what they are called, or maybe I'll poke around the pCP help site.
Otherwise, I am just going to go ahead and build the test system ground
up

Well, I am the self proclaimed "king of the run on sentence" I never met
a comma I couldn't place  :o

I apologize, I did the best I could, but a multistep process created the
situation. I'll also stop using "broke", let's call it "altered" (in
case I offended anyone)

Can you reproduce this with _any_ radio stream, or is this specific to 
RP streams?

Yes, Once altered, I cannot add more than one of any radio stream to the
queue.

And by wiping the queue your LMS would be working again, right? 
Nope, permanently altered, which is what I restarted/reinstalled plugin,
etc. I see no recovery other than reinstalling LMS...which is why I
asked.

I don't see where you "broke LMS". You hit some corner case which causes

unexpected behaviour in an unexpected use case. But LMS would still 
mostly work perfectly fine, right?


I love LMS :) But once "altered" LMS works fine, except this one (seldom
used) use case (add multiple streams to the queue). This is why I am not
asking for anyone to spend time on it. But, I did create an
unrecoverable situation as a user, and I thought that might be worth
chasing down.

So I'll ask again... what does not work (besides queuing up RP 
stations)? Why don't you clear the playlist, which you said did work?

queuing up more than one of ANY stations. My altered LMS will allow the
queue to work fine with music files, but will only add one radio stream.
Trying to add more adds the empty objects (see first post).

To be 100% clear, I just discovered having multiple radio stations in
the queue as a pseudo preset list. But @RobbH and I saw some abnormal
operations with multiple radio streams in the queue (now playing
timing/song info got out of wack). It was discussed on material and
Radio Now Playing threads. I was trying to precisely recreate those
abnormality (to report them) and I inadvertently created "altered". 

FINALLY, I SUGGEST UNLESS ANYONE KNOWS AN \"AH-HA\" WE TABLE THIS. I'LL
BUILD A NEW SYSTEM ON ANOTHER PI AND SEE IF I CAN RECREATE THE ALTERING
PROCESS AND CAPTURE THE LOGS. THAT MIGHT BE MEANINGFUL.

Hi Michael, I explained in the first post, but here's an "executive

Oh well... this posting is almost as long as the first one...


-I added all four genre FLAC regular RP streams to the queue
successfully. I was switching between them by selecting "play" from
their position in the queue. I noticed an abnormality ("now playing"
info froze while music played on). I cleared the queue. I attemped to
add all four stations again, but only one adds, the others don't add
(standard UI), add as just an blank image (material), or add as a blank
image with "loading" (squeeze control). These "blank items" cannot be
"removed" I need to clear the queue.-


Can you reproduce this with _any_ radio stream, or is this specific to 
RP streams?


And by wiping the queue your LMS would be working again, right? I don't 
see where you "broke LMS". You hit some corner case which causes

I am not asking for anyone to figure out what happened for me. I am not
asking for anyone to work on it. I was just looking for a way out that
isn't reinstall LMS (e.g delete the file "bugskeptinhere.opml").


So I'll ask again... what does not work (besides queuing up RP

There are allot of abnormal things happen with multiple streams in the
queue that doesn't happen with music library files and I was trying to
track them down and quantify them, then this happened. :( Not the end of
the world as LMS still works normally, just not in this respect.

I will hunt down more logs (thanks RobbH). I will also do this - I have
a spare pi that I'll install pCP and LMS on, configure like my current
system, and see if I can break that one too (and of course get the logs
before I do a restart)

Are older logs available? I don't know if piCorePlayer handles logs
differently, but many Linux distros keep zipped versions of older logs
for some time.

Here's what I find in the log folder on RaspberryPiOS:

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Consolidating calls to the JSON-RPC API

(https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?109273-Announce-LMS-Controls-Google-Home-Google-Assistant-Voice-Control-of-LMS-Players),

Logitech Squeezebox integration'

shuffle and sleep status on the player, or settings for mixer plugins
like DSTM. This allows me for example to use voice control to start a
SugarCube mix, but to check first that it is actually enabled on the
player in question. 

At the moment, I'm doing this through 3 calls to the JSON-RPC API in one
script, one a compound query to get the player status, and then a couple
more to get the settings for a couple of mixer plugins, using the
"playerpref " call.

Am I doing this right? It strikes me as potentially a bit inefficient -

I'm a bit late to this, and realise you have a solution that works for

(https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/media_player.group/) out of
all your chosen media players, which means they can all be acted on as a

If you are lucky there will be a clue in the LMS server.log

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] I broke LMS, How did I do it?, Can I fix without reinstalling?

2022-03-29 Thread Redrum


LMS 8.2 on a pCP 7

Nothing like doing some testing track down an issue, only to break
something else :)

Member @RobbH and I both noticed some album art/information and timing
issues when adding multiple internet radio streams to the queue, then
selecting them to play, as a pseudo set of presents. So I started
methodically testing to try to create a clear way to replicate, and
perhaps some clues along the way...Then I broke it. :(

Here's what I did. I added each of the four genre radio paradise FLAC
(non interactive) to the queue. They loaded fine. When I started
selecting each to play, I noticed that it would "freeze" now playing
info (song/art does not change). That was the original issue I was
tracing.

But then new problem came after I did allot of play this try that (to
chase the artwork freeze), then I cleared the queue, and tried to re-add
the four stations to try again. I couldn't (see below). Other internet
radio streams do not work as well. LMS UI doesn't let you, Material
creates a null graphic that the menu doesn't work, so you can't delete.
Squeeze control is also shown.

Note that adding my music files works fine.

So, stop/start LMS, reboot pCP, uninstall/Reinstall RP plugin - nothing
works. Perhaps there is a magic file in cache that I can delete?

Sorry for breaking it :o
Jim
