Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 2.3.0 - Spotify Connect for your Squeezebox

2018-05-18 Thread Michael Herger

*Important note: Spotty in Connect mode currently is broken.* There seem
to be changes on Spotify's end which break librespot/spotty.


v2.3.4 is on its way to you. It should fix the Connect failure 
introduced by Spotify server changes a few days ago.


This is a rather "hot" fix: it has seen little testing, and I haven't 
been able to build for all platforms (yet). In particular the binary for 
armv5 is still missing. While Connect wouldn't work with this one, use 
of Spotty through LMS should still be possible.


Please check what binary is being used in Settings/Advanced/Spotty 
should you encounter Connect issues. Thanks!

I can get the artwork showing for a bit by deleting the cache,
rescanning and restarting the server. iPeng initially shows all artwork
but then after a while most disappears. All artwork is there and is
shown correctly by both SB players and LMS and there is nothing that I
can see in the LMS logs that indicate a problem.

Could this be an iOS issue? I recently moved to 11.3.1 so maybe it's
this that is not playing nicely with iPeng?

Any help appreciated.

Many thanks,

Yea I gave them some money as well.  I think the most important feature
is the rating as their site says Bill uses that to help him decide how
much to play a song.  And along those lines its cool to see the rating
over the currently played song.  Of course song history but I think
you’re looking into that with the ‘what’s the last song’ plugin...  and
at this point I would say the song comments...  I enjoy scrolling
through those...

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Deezer app

2018-05-18 Thread dhallag

I don’t suppose anyone wants to tweak the Deezer app to support FLAC? 
The IckStream app hasn’t been updated in 2 years and the navigation
there versus the Deezer app is really wonky...  not to mention none of
the radio stations nor does artist radio work.  I just thought that
since the Tidal app works with FLAC that the Deezer app would be able to
as well.

I don't think it's worth the trouble, I was merely looking for a way to
improve the playlists Spotify serves me since I cannot get Connect to
work. I rarely use "follow" or"add to library".

Not 100% sure, please ask in the LMS subforum.
This is not something iPeng can influence, it never sees your files and
tags, it’s the server that manages the library and it needs to support
the tags.

It might be that this is somehow possible in LMS 7.9.1 using additional
browse modes, otherwise you‘d need something like CustomScan.

Nope.  Couldn't verify scan time because LMS deleted the older scanner
log entries for some reason (I only deleted artwork* and cache*).   But
I confirmed via WUI the CLEAR/RESCAN finished before I checked iPeng an
hour after the finish of the scanning.

hello from an old SBox user now on RPi running max2play with
LMS/Spotty...
i have a bit more info for you to chew on:

1) i tried to un-check the option   "Don't announce Squeezebox players"
but it will not stick. why wouldn't i want to announce all connect
players?
once when it seemed to stick, the device showed up.
2) "max2play" device is fleeting in appearance. my own android and
windows apps (which uses spotify web api) see it the most. Spotify's own
apps do not; did yesterday.
3) android app, OrangeSqueeze, can always see "max2play" since it is not
using spotify api as far as i know.  it's just a controller for the
SqzLite player inside RPi.
4) at one point, i had two spotify sessions streaming (i only one
premium account, not a family).  one on max2play and another on the
desktop.  how is that possible?

my best guess at this point is Spotify is messing with servers and
updates...
just a week or so ago, suddenly the ProgressTime was being reported as
0.  then after 2 days, it works again.
of course, this wasn't the first time something wacky happens at their
end.

I expected something like that. Strange that Spotify doesn’t provide
these libraries to anybody. They would reach more paying customers and
would have less reverse-engineered libraries accessing their systems.

Thanks for this information and your implication Michael.
The breaking changes comes from the beta part of the API ?


No, from a non-documented part... It's based on reverse-engineering - 
which is always prone to failure in case of protocol changes.

Could it be that the server is just pretty slow creating the artwork? If
you cleared all and it needs to be re-generated this might take a
while.
Of course, the pre-caching is supposed to solve that but are you sure
that had completely run through when you first tried? It can take hours
with a "clear&rescan" on a slow server.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Announcements/Doorbell plugin?

2018-05-18 Thread wuschi

Hi all,

I'm looking for a plugin that can play announcements etc. without
modifying existing playlists etc.
The idea is to playback/overlay the doorbell on my squeezebox devices
and afterwards return to the state they were before.

Do you know of such a plugin? Is it basically possible to overlay an
announcement on squeezebox devices?

Thanks and kind regards,
Thomas

Actually, I don't think it is. Spotify probably gets some kind of
