Re: [slim] music stops when on synced radio starts up
I tried it, but didn't think of it as a new player so alarm was set on the bedroom radio itself. Changed it today so I'll see tomorrow if that fixes it. thanks for all the testing :D SB Radio x2, SB Duet, Squeezelite, SB Player, Squeezer, LMS 8.0.0 on Raspberry Pi 4 (4GB) teebee's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70091 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112429 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] RadioFeeds UK & Ireland, now with station logos
The RadioFeeds UK & Ireland radio directory now includes station logos where available. Not any old logos.. official logos, as provided by the stations themselves, through the use of RadioDNS's "Project Logo". So these will be high-res artwork rather than dodgy JPEG regrabs from Twitter or some other source. Give it a try! Available as a mysqueezebox.com app or Logitech Media Server plugin. *RadioFeeds UK & Ireland..* an up-to-date radio directory for your Squeezebox/Transporter/UE Smart Radio.. available from the mysqueezebox.com App Gallery. Bonus: our RadioFeeds LMS plugin also lists AAC *and the BBC's high-quality HLS streams* on top of what's available in our MSB app. -Now with over 1000 registered users-, it's available for Logitech Media Server (and Squeezebox Server, SqueezeCenter and SlimServer).

Re: [slim] Rescan Music Library - Weekdays only
How about extending the capability of the LMS Alarm so that it becomes a baby "cron". This indeed was an idea we played with some... 10+ years ago :-). I think this could be an interesting plugin. -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Wouldn't a scheduled "scanner.exe" do the job? Or this, yes. It just needs a little more work to figure out all the necessary parameters. -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

All the UI stuff about "modes" with up/down/left/right/scroll are
related to handling the older VFD displays where LMS generated the
bitmaps.
Later addition of OPML based menus with OPMLBased class for plugins -
simplifed menu handling and enabled one menu datastructure to handle
both older displays and newer ones.
Plugins are very flexible - essentially adding code to LMS and so can
modify everything - beside APIs and hooks ("can" routines), a plugin
can sub/super class standard LMS classes and modify behaviour. LMS is
single threaded so a badly behaved plugin can halt LMS or cause bad
audio playback. LMS single threading is handled via AnyEvent (which is
another avenue for adding functionality) but a plugin is not bound to
the single thread as plugins can can create subprocesses via
Proc::Background. Windows only plugins can access Windows API via Win32
module.
With all the above possibilties - I hope you see, it is better to
describe what you want to do rather than ask what APIs are available.
It is very rare for a plugin to need to do something that there isn't
something similar already developed that can serve as a template

Thank you for this overview. I've been using LMS with the Material skin, so all those docs pages were hidden from me. Very helpful.
