Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Playing cue files with LMS
OK, let's see if I can sum up what were the problems I had, which I hadn't and which were solved. 1) Problem playing large wav or flac files. This was my greatest concern, because I could open the file and see the tracks inside with LMS, but couldn't play them. Problem solved. 2) Problem using cue to play anything. After being allowed to play large wav files, I compromised that I could live without the cues, even I still would like to be able to use them. Problem not solved. 3) Problems with single wav or flac track files. Never had any, they were the only files that always played fine. I put a Playlist folder in my c:, as was adviced. Still use the c:\Musica as my sole folder for audio. For me it keeps things simple, in one place and easy to find. That \Musica folder has subfolders organized alphabetically by artist or other categories, which then hold the proper albums. Some albums have their own sufolders. But I have no problem getting to them, either with LMS or Jivelite on PCP. In practical terms, once I get to the album and open it, I can play the tracks straight away in the absolute majority of them. Now, if anyone tells me that a different organization will allow me to use cue files, I may try it. But default Windows folders with Users >,,, I prefer not to use. They put too many things there that would be confusing when using Jivelite-PCP I'm not interested in LMS to open any video folder or subfolder, so I deleted them from LMS media folders. carlmart's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110871 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Playing cue files with LMS
To all of you, thank you for trying to help, and please excuse my impatience or plain ignorance, or my impatience due to plain ignorance. The task of this project was to have a very good audio managing system, that I could control in my listening room with plain remote controls (no cell phones or tablets). It was very important that this system could play all type of files, and LMS/PCP does. When I get to install my Linux server system I will come back to this forum to get LMS to work with the Linux server. Perhaps we can get the cue files to work. In the meantime, a big thanks again! carlmart's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110871 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Playing cue files with LMS
In spite of my confusion and efforts to understand the logic of how these things work, I must say I am very pleased that most of the problems I had have been solved. So here goes a big thanks for what you already helped me achieve. Perhaps I may get or not to use the cue file as I was used to with VLC, but there seems to be a working alternative to that, which is clicking in All musics, which starts playing the whole album. Now another question about LMS, and Jivelite too: is there a control button to advance to the following track and go back to the track before? Apparently not, just asking. carlmart's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110871 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Now, THIS seems very important.
For two reasons:
1) There might be someone that can adapt this to LMS on Windows.
2) In my final system I will have to install LMS on the server computer,
which will be running on Linux. So the cue controls might be back. Am I
right?

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Playing cue files with LMS
OK. I implemented the language change. It seems a move in the right direction, even if not complete yet. What did change is that now I can play the large wav files, which I couldn't before. A great thing. The cue command refuses to work. Says: empty. The other thing that changed is that the names of tracks inside the WAV file do not show. Of course that is less of problem than not playing the file at all. The cue file refuses to work, and when trying to use to play separate tracks the message you get is: Error: no items found on playlist. Separate tracks continue to play as they did before.

Yes, I'm a new LMS user, and certainly not used to work with Linux and its interface with LMS or Windows. I think I provided some hints when I downloaded the file that was sent for me to download, and I clearly specified that the cue file included didn't work on my LMS setup. This might be quite similar.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Playing cue files with LMS
Yes, the program is playing audio, and quite well. That's why I keep insisting on this matter. The only things that do not work, for some reason I can't yet understand, are the cue commands and the large wav files. The large files should be opened by the cue command to play the tracks. So I do not have access to those tracks as things are now. The cue command should also command the play of separate tracks, independent ones, and it does not do that. Those tracks are the ones I can play now by clicking directly on them. So it's two problems, which I think I explained: 1) The cue command, which should work with separate wav tracks and to play the tracks inside a large wav file 2) The large wav files with tracks inside them, which LMS or PCP refuses to play. Do those logs show why this is happening? Why that connection between LMS and player is not working for that? carlmart's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110871 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

The wave file playing doesn't prove much, as I have a lot of albums with separate wav tracks and a cue file. With LMS the files play fine, but the cue file controls nothing and does nothing. When the wave file is large and contains the tracks that the cue file should separate, LMS refuse to play the wave. I can't see how the wav file can be bad, as I have a lots of them, and this happened with several with LMS, not just this file. I did test that.
