Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Radio Now Playing plugin
The reflex has to find the unique string that identifies the station.
It is supposed to the the ${cap} pseudo field.
But there are a few hacks and tricks behind the scenes that I have put
in over the last couple of years that might work.
So dont worry - Ill work out a way to do it.

OK, I can check the streams I have added, and if there will be some problem I can change the regex :) Only the albumart (image) I don't know how to fix, it is still the same. I think it should change, at least based on the code I've seen (coverfields: asset).

I posted quite a bit about this problem last year, and so I thought I'd take another try at it. The Chromecast Bridge is a very useful pluggin for myself and Audiophile Buddies What we are trying to do is just display the Album Art on our TVs while the Chrome-cast is synced to another Raspberry Pi Player. The main problem we are having is when using Qobuz and when playing a Hi-Res Track, it will cause a number of problems, sometimes causing the track to stop playing entirely. This is with the Chromecast synced to the Raspberry Pi. The Rpi is the master and the Chromecast is the Slave.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Radio Now Playing plugin
Were your changes to add the extra stations and no modifications of the pre-existing ones? I just tried the 4 stations in my initial list and they all worked fine - each showing different data that seemed to match what was being broadcast. Can you give an example of what you see that is wrong?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Looking for someone willing to update Inguz EQ/DRC settings page
JonSqueeze wrote: > Thank you Apesbrain for your help and patience! Glad it worked out. IIRC, you are trying to EQ headphones; you might find it easier to use another "real-time" equalizer program to get your headphones sounding the way you want, then duplicate those settings in Inguz. This should be less frustrating and faster than dealing with the "delayed reaction" of Inguz settings changes. One issue you may run into is that Inguz EQ center frequencies are not easily changeable. Use the default center frequencies, then save your settings as a preset. Open the folder on your server: %PROGRAMDATA%\INGUZEQ\SETTINGS. You'll find a settings file there that corresponds to the name of your preset. By editing this file, you should be able to change the center frequencies. Remember to restart the Logitech Media Server/SqueezeSvr service after any changes. This BAT file will initiate a service restart: Code: @echo off net stop squeezesvc timeout /t 5 net start squeezesvc Just put a shortcut to it on your desktop.

My mistake Paul. I should have said Alexa and/or Google. My Home Assistant implementation is quite recent and I'm still trying to figure out if this offers an easier/more secure/more robust/more cost effective option for voice control, or not. I have Amazon Prime and a couple of Echos but also lots of Google Android devices so all options open.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: LMS Controls - Google Home / Google Assistant Voice Control of LMS Players
Has anyone made any further progress here? I have Touch and RasPi pCorePlayers throughout my home and now got RasPi Home Assistant up and running. I would like to have Alexa voice control of my LMS over and above basic on/off volume up/down i.e. selection and playing of favourites, music folders and/or specific song tracks from my collection. I'd pay for Nabu Casa HA icloud integration if that would do it but I haven't found much evidence of this to date. Having had fingers burnt in the past, I'm reluctant to open up ports on my router and I'm getting a bit old to set up all the LMS Controls from first principles, hence my interest in Nabu Casa. If anyone else shares these goals and has made any progress I would very much welcome tips and suggestions Thanks in advance Chip ChipMonk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40072 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109273 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Radio Now Playing plugin
For those who kept the beta repo configured ... there is a new build available that adds a couple of stations and now allows the user to configure which of the available broadcaster groups are handled. If people have station groups that they listen to but they do not present song info in LMS ... but they do get more information when using the web site or app of the broadcaster then let me know and I'll see if I can add it in. That is how these extra stations appeared.
