[slim] Problem playing Radio after local music using Logitech Android app
If I use the Android app as a controller and play a local track, I cannot switch to any Radio station unless I stop playback of the local track first. If I use the web GUI or the duet controller I can switch to a Radio station without stopping playback as I would expect. Tried using 7.7.3 and 7.8 . slartibartfast's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35609 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98969 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Thinking of going with SqueezePlug - a couple of (maybe obvious) questions...
Hi Nightfly, Tags are not a problem - the file/folder names are. I always make sure, that the tags are correct - but simplify the file names (Tag: P!nk, Folder: Pink). This can be done quite automatically through tools - I'm using Bulk Rename Utility which has a mode to remove accents. This way I'm able to avoid the mentioned problems for audio files. But I also store movies on the RPi server - and here I don't have tags; so the file names must be correct to allow the server proper identification. Not knowing anything about samba, if I were just to transfer every album with accent marks via USB, and only use samba for transferring generic-ASCII tagged albums, would that solve the problem or not? Say you mount your USB HD to your windows pc as E: and copy all files - looking at E: you will find all names intact. Then you disconnect the HD from the PC and conect it to the pi. Then you mount the samba share of the pi as say V:. Looking at V: you will find the funny names if something is wrong. (Right now I don't remember how the names are shown, if you log into the Pi through putty). So, if you have a sync-script (I use RoboCopy) which syncs the master library to the pi it will work when the HD is again connected through USB, but you will get lots of duplication when it is synced against the share because the folders are not recognized. I don't know if you have something like a master library - maybe the Pi is your master. If you don't sync, you may not have a problem. If you fill through USB, each time you connect the HD to the PC everything will look fine. When you look through the share, names are trashed, but who cares? And I guess yes, you could sync ASCII named files without problems - but this would be a pretty boring manual task. I recommend to play around with little chunks of data first, until the access scenarios you have in mind work. If everything is fine, you can copy all the rest.

Re: [slim] Spotify plugin not appearing
And... it does seem to work with Squeezebox basic player! But, it seems to require that the Squeezebox music server is running. I had thought that Spotify would run through mysqueezebox.com, without the need for the computer that runs music server to be turned on. Does anyone know, is that correct?

Re: [slim] Problem playing Radio after local music using Logitech Android app
They are supposed to bring up some menu instead of clearing the playlist right away when you tap an item so that you can't accidentally delete it. There's a setting in the player settings. But this is just a wild guess, I did not try this out. I would try another App, me thinks only Logitech's might have that issue. Most of them are better-because-native anyway pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98969 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] MOG only working via mysqueezebox.com
Hi all, I've signed up for the trial MOG service to see if it's worth jumping from Spotify. So far I've got it working well on the PC's and my Android devices - and for me I don't use any download data (over Telstra 3g or broadband) whilst listening to MOG which is a big bonus. However, I cannot get my squeezeboxes (Booms and Classic) working properly with MOG. Currently it only works when I sign into mysqueezebox. When signed into LMS I can still connect to MOG and see favourites etc. but it will not play any music. Sometimes it says it cannot find files, sometimes it just sits there. Either way no music via LMS. The squeezeboxes all seem fine otherwise. When I'm connected to LMS I can see/play my own music collection on the server, connect/play spotify and play synchronised music. Any help would be much appreciated!! Many thanks.

Re: [slim] Problem playing Radio after local music using Logitech Android app
Did you only try the Logitech App? This sounds a bit like a problem with the prevent destructive play thing, which is newer than the Logi App. Just a wild guess. pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98969 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

O.K., I downloaded it and tried to install it, to no avail. The new SqueezePlay Beta and SqueezeLite both start up and promptly hang. I tried using regsvr32 to register the DLL, and was told I couldn't, as there was no entry point found. ??? the nightfly's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42075 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98945 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
