 compatible receiver on the network, you can route the output from any
 app to that. Please tell me if that is wrong! 

IMHO that is right.

 I am running LMS 7.8 on a QNAP TS-869L, and am very unfamiliar with
 Linux. Would it be possible for someone to write a step by step on how
 to install this plug-in which could be followed even by utter Linux
 noobs like me?

I can try to write a step by step howto and I managed to get the plugin 
running on my linux system with LMS, but this is a normal linux and no 
Qnap with limmited possebilities of available packages, e.g. You have to 
install some aditional perl modules for example to get the shairtunes 
plugin running, I don't know if it is possible to install these perl 
modules via a packaging system or cpan. Also the avahi configuration has 
to be modified, no plan if this can be done on the Qnaps without side 
effects to the rest of the system.

 at the first hurdle. When I try and add the repo linked to by StuartUSA
 in post 17 of this thread to LMS, I get the following error message:
 
 Bad repository
 http://raw2.github.com/StuartUSA/shairport_plugin/master/public.xml -
 Redirection limit exceeded - can anyone help me with that?

I had the same error and for that reason I've installed the plugin 
manualy. This can be done by coping the downloaded and unpacked plugin 
directory in to /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/Plugins. Then the file 
permissions has to be corected and after that the plugin can be enabled 
via the LMS web interface.

 If I can get to the point where the plug-in is installed, I understand
 that I then need to compile the helper app, on Linux. To do that, I
 need to SSH into the Qnap box linux interface and then simply type the
 commands as shown at the bottom of
 https://github.com/StuartUSA/shairport_plugin. Please tell me if this is
 wrong.

If no of the pre-compiled binaries are running on your Qnap, you are not 
wrong and you really have to compile the shairtunes_helper binary. And 
that ist the next problem with the Qnaps..., you need an environment to 
compile binaries, no plan if the packages needed for this environment 
can be installed or how I can get such an environment.

As said, I can try to write a step to step howto for the installation on 
a normal linux system, but to know how the plugin can be installed on a 
Qnap I need to have ssh access and root priveleges to such an device and 
also then installation can be different depending on the system 
architecture

You could use the pre-compiled binaries available from the 'squeezelite
page' (https://code.google.com/p/squeezelite/)

When I was trying the precompiled packages the last time they where not 
compiled with support for mp3 and flac for licence reasons, because 
there is no way to compile them on Mac OS with support for this 
formats or whatever :-(. Thats why I'd like to try to compile 
squeezelite for myself, but it is hart to find all needed libs for 
Mac OS :-(.

Maybe another possebility would be to use the precompiled package and 
let the server recode a stream with a not supported format into a format 
which squeezelite is able to play, but at the moment I don't know if 
this is possible...

Have you ssh access to your nas? You should run the binary in a terminal if

Or you copy the file to the same location, where the plugin stores the file 
(please copy the original file before) and you try to use the file directly

 Spotify with the Triode plugin seemed like the best solution, however
 spotifyd will not run.

I think there is no version of spotifyd for you cpu architecture. The file 
command on the spotify binary for the Mac tells the following:

spotifyd: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
spotifyd (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
spotifyd (for architecture i386):   Mach-O executable i386

 Since this device is ppc and not arm or i386 I'm thinking this is the
 end of the road.  Am I right?  

Yes, if there are really no PPC binaries for the plugin...

But there is also the official spotify plugin from Logitech. It is not that 
comfortable like the plugin from Triode, but maybe it works with your 
hardware...

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Smart Mix plugin

[Christian Schoepplein]

Hi,

I'm running the latest version of the SmartMix plugin (1.7) with LMS 
7.9, music sources for the plugin are Spotify and Deezer, no local 
content.

Everything is working fine so far, but if I start a new mix based 
on the song currently playing, the playback is ok for 20 or 30 tracks 
(the number differs) and then it is stopping. If I switch to the next 
song in the playlist which was created by SmartMix, everything is fine 
again for the next few songs..., until the next stop occures :-(.

Is this a wanted behaviour or should the SmartMix pluging take care for 
playing music till the playback is stopped manualy?

If it is not a wanted behaviour, what could be the reason? I can't find 
anything in the server logs, have increased the loglevel for the plugin 
now...

You do not need to download the plugin. Just open the settings page of 
LMS, go to the plugin section and mark the plugin to be installed. 
Alsoyouhave to enable the spottify plugin on mysb.com and enter your

So,no need to do anything by hand, everything is working via the LMS

notfind my LMS any more. Even if I specify the server by hand in the

responding also the URL I configured for the server in iPeng is fine:

http://192.168.1.2:9000

In the webinterface of LMS everything is OK, players are shown, music 
can be played, e.g.

I'm not sure if the problem is sitting in front of the computer or is

I wanted to check this during the evening, but there is another problem 
now. The following is in the logfile and I can't call the settings for 
the pluging anymore:

[16-07-30 02:19:29.5415] Slim::Control::Request::execute (1888) Error:

/usr/share/perl5/Slim/Plugin/DontStopTheMusic/Plugin.pm line 100.

Also I've found entries like this:

} at

 line 100.


The first error occured after updating to 
logitechmediaserver_7.9.0~1469802843_amd64.deb this evening, the second 
error was with logitechmediaserver_7.9.0~1469605610_all.deb (yes, I am 
using the full 64 bit version now). With the older LMS version the 
settings menu for DSTM was displayed.

My system is Debian Wheezy 64 bit with the latest patches, perl version 
is 5.14. I can provide more infos if needed, just let me know. Also I 
can update to a newer Debian or perl version if this will help.

Ciao & thx,

I've also tried the LastMix plugin and it is cool to have this new

work!

But for what reason ever I only get a playlist with 25 songs and then 
music stops.

I am using logitechmediaserver 7.9.0~1469605610 and I am subscribed to 
Spotify and Deezer.

Has anyone an idea what causes this behaviour? What info do you need to

Have you tried the installation of any of these spotify connect web 
plugins during the last months. I've tried and all those plugins 
require a spotify api key for developpers, but spotify does not longer 
offer such a key.

Also all those plugins are based on libspotify, a libary which is not 
developped and maintained any longer.

I use the spotify app on my iOS device and stream music to my 
squeezeboxes via AirPlay. For Android some kind of UPMP plugin 
/extension might work. Why not using that kind of setup?

Developing a spotify connect web pluging currently makes no sense.
Nobody knows what will happen when libspotify can't be used any 
more...

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: WaveInput for Linux

[Christian Schoepplein]

Hi,

will the WaveInput for Linux plugin work with pulseaudio, especialy with 
virtual pulseaudio sound cards?

I am using LMS in a lxc container environment where no sound card is 
present and I'd like to stream the output of a program, e.g. mplayer, 
via a virtual sound device to my squeezeboxes.

I haave no idea, if the WaveInput plugin can be used for such a setup, 
would be great, if it is possible. If not, any other idea is very 
appreciated :-).

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Squeeze-Controller [windows, linux, osx] Alpha, Testers Wanted

[Christian Schoepplein]

Hi,

I've also tried Squeeze-Controller on my Mac now, but the app can not connect 
to my local LMS... I'm not sure, if it is related to the app or to the fact 
that I am using the Mac with the integrated VoiceOver screen reader.

I can enter the ip address of my LMS, but I'm not sure, if I also have to enter 
http:// in front of it.


As port I entered 9000, is this correct and the default? If it is the default, 
maybe this entry could be already present in the textfield.

After that I tried to activate the save button either via keyboard or trackpad, 
but nothing changed. This might be related to VoiceOver which maybe does not 
fully support the interface of the Squeeze-Controller app.

Would it be a big thing to make sure that all things in the GUI of the app can 
also be done via keyboard? That would help blind people who are using a screen 
reading software a lot. Also I've found a few buttons which are not labeled and 
the screen reader is not telling me the function of these buttons. Labeling all 
buttons with theire recoresponding meaning would also be very cool for that 
reason.


Ciao and thanks a lot,

I have no idea what caused the writing error in the first line of the

files and directories are looking good.

In which file is the username and password for the Spotify protocoll 
handler stored?

I had the same issues also some times in the past. For what reason ever 
I had also to enter my spotify password in the settings page of the 
spotify handler after a reboot of my LMS, but during the last weeks a 
reboot caused no problems. I'll take a look, if the problem still

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty v1.1.0

[Christian Schoepplein]

When transfering a playlist with 210 songs only the first 199 songs 
showed up in LMS, all those 199 songs can be played. When I open the 
same playlist via iPeng and the Spotty plugin in LMS also only the 
first 199 songs are displayed.

Is this a limiting problem caused by Spotify?

I do not think that my problem is related to our proxy, because the 
other services (IckStream, Deezer via mysb.com, Tunein) are working 
fine. I have also configured our proxy in LMS but that did not help. 
Also calling the binary in a shell with the http_proxy variable exported 
was not successfull :-(.

Is there a possebility to get more debug output in the logs for Spotty 
or would it help to increase the output for other logsetting in LMS?

BTW.: I've tried to configure Spotty with a clean install and also 
copied the /var/lib/squeezeboxserver from another working installation 
to my laptop, but both witout success, auth was always failling :-(.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] For the brave only: the Spotty Spotify implementation

The problem might be related to our network, we use a http proxy, but 
also with the http proxy set it does not work.

Has anyone an idea how to debug the problem further or whats going wrong 
with the authentication?

BTW.: Other music services configured in LMS are working without a 
problem, Deezer via mysb.com or Ickstrream, Tunein, e.g. I could switch 
back to the older spotify plugin with librespot, but it ofcourse would 
be nicer to use spotty :-).

[SlimDevices: Plugins] SqueezeLite ans pulseaudio

[Christian Schoepplein]

Hi,

is it possible to use SqueezeLite on systems where pulseaudio is used as 
the default output system for sound?

I am running Debian 9 and I am not able to get SqueezeLite to output any 
sound, no matter which device I select for output. Maybe the fact, that 
I have to use a screen reader software on the system (I am blind and 
this is the only way for me to work with the computer), is also related 
to my problems, because the screen reader is ofcourse also using the 
soundsystem.

I've tryed the official packages of SqueezeLite which are included in 
Debian 9, version is 1.8.4, but also a self compiled version of the 
current SqueezeLite release did not work.


Has anyone an idea what I could try to get SqueezeLite with a localy 
installed LMS up and running?

Thats more then enough for me ATM, because I'd like to use SqueezeLite 
at work to listen to spotify or deezer and they do not change 
samplingrate very ofthen I think :-).

Yes, would be cool, because the pulseaudio crap is the default on more

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] For the brave only: the Spotty Spotify implementation

[Christian Schoepplein]

Hi,

today I was at last changing my setup to also use the new Spotty plugin. 
Everything is working fine so far, LMS 7.9.1 on a Debian 8.8 system 
running virtualized in a Qemu/KVM. Really cool, A big thanks to you, 
Michael, for all your work!

But one thing is not longer possible which was possible before with the 
old SBH plugin. I very ofthen add songs to 
Spotify playlists by opening the regarding context menu in iPeng on the 
screen for the song currently playing. But with Spotty the menu entry to 
add a song to a Spotify playlist seems to be gone :-(. Is this an issue 
of Spotty, LMS or iPeng?

Also there is a button to star and to love the song which is currently 
playing. I was always wondering what these buttons do or if they do 
anything at all..., because I was never able to see any change in 
Spotify or LMS after pressing these buttons in the past with the old 
handler and also with Spotty. Does "star" mean that the track is added 
to the playlist with stared songs on Spotify? If yes, it would be nice 
to get this button working again :-).

Ciao and again a big THANK YOU to keep Spotify with LMS alive!

Works perfect so far, damn cool :-). I'll have a look for 429 errors during the

Yes. I am using Deezer with a Hifi account via Ickstream and I get the music in

- You can search and listen to artists, albums or playlists.
- Playlists, which were created by Deezer, can be played
- Deezer Picks can be played
- Deezers Flow can be played, but for me only 20 songs are in the 
  playlist generated by the Flow-feature, so it eseems like this feature 
  is broken somehow :-(

I am using Spottify with the spotty plugin for LMS to search for new 
music or browse genres, artists or playlists. Only for favourite 
artists or albums, where I like to listen mor ofthen or longer and 
ofcourse in a better quality of music, I am using Deezers hifi abo with 
Ickstream. Unfortunatly the features of Ickstream for Deezer are very 
limited to search for new music, if this would get better, I'd use it 
more ofthen. I am still using spotify, because I started with it and I 
have all my playlists, artists, e.g. there. I use Deezer only because of 
the hifi quality of the music, which really sounds much better via 
my hifi system (Acccuphase amp, speakers from B and the Logitech 
Transporter, cables from HMS) then the songs from Spotify. And it is not 
even me, which is hearing the better sound quality, also friends can 
hear it and we have tested it in blind tests...

Hi,

I can not longer follow artists via Spotify when using Spotty in SB mode. This 
was possible in the past, do not know when it worked the last time...

Is this a known issue?

Then there are IMHO no reasons to use Tidal via IckStream...

I was not aware of that the official Tidal plugin is able to stream music in 
flac quality. Very cool!

Would it be possible to have this for the official Deezer plugin too?

Yes, AFAIK the music quality. With IckStream you can stream the music as flac, 
via mysb.com only in lower mp3 (or whatever) quality.

I don't know the Tidal plugin very much, but I think the mysb.com plugin has 
more features implemented (following artists, browsing genres, managing 
playlists, e.g.), but if you like to have the music in a higher quality I'd use 
Tidal via IckStream.

I was in contact with the Auralic support and they said that they are 
using the OpenHome protocol and not UPNP/DLNA itself :-(.

>the UPnP Bridge settings page.

I did and I was not able to find any hint for the ProtocolInfo or 
whatever in the xml files I got while I was scanning my network for the 
Aries G2.

I can see the OpenHome renderer and I was able to download some XML 
files which I can post if it helps, but for me they do not contain 
relevant infos to let me integrate the player into LMS :-(.

Any further iedeas would be great.

I thought about a solution where squeezelite sends its output via pulse 
audio dlna to the Aries, maybe that could work.

A plugin that acts as a bridge between LMS and OpenHome devices might be 
another solution, but my programming skills are not good enough to do 
this myself :-(.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: UPnPBridge = integrate UPnP/DLNA players with LMS (squeeze2upnp)

Hej,

do I have any chance to get a player working with the upnpbridge, if the
player is not detected by squeeze2upnp? I've got an Auralic Aries G2 and I
would like to use this device with LMS ansd squeeze2upnp. It seems that
some users have been able to get an Auralic Aries Mini work with LMS, but
I can find nothing related to the Aries G2. I am even not aware of the
cababilities of the Aries G2, maybe it is not able to work as a renderer
which is necessary to work with squeeze2upnp, if I understood correctly...

Any idea how to get the device working with the upnpbridge or how to find
out if it is possible or not are highly welcome :-).

Cheers,

Hej,

I am thinking about buying a player from Auralic. Because this players arenÄt 
able to work as a native squeezebox I have to include them into my system via 
the UPnPBridge plugin I think.

Has anyone done this before? Has anyone experince with the players and will 
they work with UPnPBridge?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] ANNOUNCE: AirPlay Bridge = integrate AirPlay devices with LMS (squeeze2raop)

[Christian Schoepplein]

Hi,

I am still trying to use my new Aries G2 player from Auralic with LMS. The UPNP 
bridge did not work so another solution would be to use the player via airplay.

The following setup is working so far with all limitations given by airplay:

- I have installed SqueezeLite on my Mac Book, the player shows up in LMS
- Also I have installed AirFoul on my Mac Book. With AirFoul you can stream any 
sound from an app on the Mac Book to a device which is able to act as a airplay 
receiver.

The disatvantage with this setup is that the Mac Book has to be running if I 
want to use the Auralic player with LMS. So my question is if it would be 
possible to build a rao2squeeze bridge for LMS? Have you ever thought about 
that?

Cheers,

  Schoepp

You mean when using the Connect feature or using LMS and iPeng? I do not 
use Spotify Connect and I do not like to use it as long I can use iPeng 
to controll LMS and all its features and plugins this way :-).

I am not sure if I explained the problem correctly..., so another try 
:-).

If I am searching for an artist and open the view where all Albums, 
Singles and so on for this artist are shown, I get also the possebility 
to play the "Top tracks" of the artist. This item can't be played via 
the context menu of iPeng. Clicking on "Top-Tracks" will open the 
playlist and all titles are shown instead. This was different in the 
past, there was the possebility to open a context menu via iPeng when 
activating the "Top-Tracks" item. Now I wonder why the possebility to 
open a context menu for the "Top-Tracks" item is gone and if it is 
possible to bring it back maybe :-.

This does not work every time. If I tap on the first item in the 
playlist and select "Play all items" sometimes the full playlist is 
played, but very ofthen only the first track is selected.

Another reason why it would be nice to have a context menu is that it 
takes one step less to play the top tracks of an artist :-).

Slartibartfast explained the problem in his last mail also and sent a 
picture, maybe this makes it more clear what I mean. The context menus 
are present for other items but not for the top tracks :-(.

This does not work in all situations. Sometimes the whole playlist is played,

Full ACK, I also think it is related to the player and its strange

It seems like the player is to slow for getting the information that

Yes, it happens only if I skip tracks back and for manualy. If I play a 
playlist without interacting manualy everything is fine.

When starting a playlist the first track is played. If I skip manualy to the 
second track it is not played. Skipping to the third track would start playing 
the song. Skipping to the fourth track causes again no output. It seems that 
only every second track causes problems.

When no sound is played I can see in iPeng that pause is enabled, but at the 
same time I can see that the time how long the track is played is rising. Very 
strange :-).

If if send a AirPlay stream via my iPhone directly to the player I do not have 
those problems.

Enabling encryption does not help. It makes things more random I think, because 
now not only every second track is not played, but sometimes it works, 
sometimes not. But it does not solve the issue :-(.

Can I do something else to solve the problem or to provide more infos to you 
regarding the issue?

OK, the crash seems to be related to the count of players which are turned on. 
And they are VoiceOver related.

When iPeng is the only player the app can be started with VoiceOver turned on.

If my Transporter is also turned on, I can see the screen of iPeng for a very 
short time and then I am back on the home screen on my iPhone. When VoiceOver 
is turned of, it is no problem to start and use iPeng with more then one 
player. Strange... :-).

Another issue I have since two betas is that iPeng wants to have a username and 
password every time I use the app in my home network. the setup of my LMS has 
not changed since months, only some plugins have been actualized. Also the 
configuration of my network didn't change. And in earlier betas of iPeng I was 
not asked for a username and password...

BTW.: I do not have to fill something into the fields for username and 
password, just pressing the cancel button closes the dialog and iPeng is 
working fine then. After some minutes the same dialog is popping up again. I 
can send a screenshot if it helps to explain things more clearly.

Hm, i didn�t get any crash reports, yet (might be delayed).
This is today�s beta, right?


Yes, its the latest beta which you have released yesterday.

When I start the app I can see (hear with VoiceOver) the screen of the 
currently playing title in iPeng for a short time, then the screen 
closes and I am back on my iPhones home screen.


I will do more tests this evening, because this morning it worked. I 
started iPeng with no other player turned on, so iPeng was the only 
player. This causes no crash. I'll test later when more players are 
turned on...

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: UPnPBridge = integrate UPnP/DLNA players with LMS (squeeze2upnp)

[Christian Schoepplein]

Hi,

with the newest version of the upnp bridge and the newest beta firmware 
of my player from Auralic the device is recognized by the upnp bridge 
plugin and I can see a section for the device in the upnpbridge.xml 
file.

But what ever I am trying, the player, and also other players which were 
visible before, do not show up as players in LMS. I have also a TX-NR509 
from Onkyo and this player was visible before, but now it isn't..., even 
if I remove all other players from the upnpbridge.xml file.

Has anyone an idea whats going on there?

Cheers and thanks,

I saw logs where the bridge was crashing, selecting the static binary 
fixed those crashes.

But however, something strange is going on with the plugin.

I've tryed to regenerate the upnpbridge.xml file to be sure to have a 
clean file to start from and ahve all found players in it, but whatever 
I am trying, the file is not generated. Nothing in the logs why...

After that I deinstalled the plugin, restarted the server, removed the 
xml file and installed the plugin again. Same situation..., the xml file 
is not generated.

I have no idea what is going on there, but I think trying to get my 
player working should be the second step after the problems from above 
are clear.

What in detail do I have todo to generate a new upnpbridge.mxl file? 
Just clicking the generate button does not work, no matter if autosave 
is activated or not.

Sorry for asking such a stupid question, but it is really not working on 
my system :-(.

Thanks,

Yes, I know, but there is nothing in the logs.

I set all kind of loging for the players in LMS to debug, but only my
normal Transporter shows up and nothing about the Auralic. for the upnp
bridge debuging is enabled, but also nothing in the logs.

Please can you tell me what entries in the upnpbridge.xml file are needed
to get propper debug loging?

Thanks,

A quick check gave me the following forums / boards which are not synced to any

Thanks for this address. I know all this lists and IIRC I was subscribed to

Does anyone have similar problems? Can someone take a look pleas and maybe fix

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Deezer mixes

[Christian Schoepplein]

Hi,

with the Deezer app on my smartphone or the Sonos app it is possible to start 
mixes e.g. for artists. I can’t find this nice feature in the Deezer plugin for 
LMS. Did I miss something or is it just not implemented or can it be 
implemented somehow?

BTW.: Its really sad that no flac streaming is possible with Deezer :-(. Would 
be really nice if this changes somewhen in future….

IMHO yes, if your hardware (streamer and / or DAC) is licenced to play MQA
content. The touch is not such a device and also it is not able to unpack
MQA files.

In general IMHO MQA is crap. Just read on WikiPedia or other internet

A first quick test after the update to 1.3 looks great! I used the skin 
with Safari on my Mac and I was able to do everything without a 
problem. Will test more during the next days and report back or on 
Github if I have issues.

Thanks for making the skin also useable with a screen reader! It might 
not be fully accessible anywhere, but 1.3 is 100% better then the 
version before :-)!

[SlimDevices: Plugins] DSD player and LMS 8.0.0

[Christian Schoepplein]

Unfortunatly the DSD player plugin is not compartible with LMS 8.0.0. 
Because the plugin is from Triode I wonder if and how this could be 
fixed. IMHO the plugin should also work with the 8.0.0 version of LMS.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Material Skin

[Christian Schoepplein]

Hi,

I am blind and I am using LMS since years via iPeng, which was no 
problem till iOS 13 has ben released :-(.


I have a screen reading software activated on my iOS devices which is 
called VoiceOver and which is included on every Apple device. That 
software is reading out the screen content and lets me use apps, 
websites, e.g. if they are developed with having accessibility isues in 
mind.


Since iOS 13 I am not longer able to switch between players because 
something has been changed by Apple in the way how menus are displayed. 
I already have contacted Pippin and he has taken a look, but 
unfortunatly he can't fix the problem without big workarounds in iPeng, 
so there no quick solution either by Apple or Pipin is possible :-(.


My next idea was to use the new material skin either via my iOS devices 
or a computer, but unfortunatly this is also not possible without bigger 
accessibility issues :-(. It seems that the skin could be useable with 
Firefox or Crome on a Windows 10 system, but with the Safari browser on 
my Mac Book I have very big problems.


I am seeing many unlabeled grafics and buttons without an alternative 
text description which could be fixed very easy IMHO and which could 
improve accessibility a lot because it would be clear to me, which 
function is behind a button.


Can this things fixed please so I can give it another try and see how 
good I can use the skin with my different devices?


BTW.: If you like to see and get a feeling how I am working with my 
computer or my iOS devices, you can either activate VoiceOver in the 
settings of your iPhone, iPad or Mac computer, or you can install the 
free screen reading software NVDA for Windows which can be downloaded 
from . Just test the material skin with VoiceOver 
or NVDA enabled and you will see what feedback I get..., or what not :-).


It would be really great to improve accessibility of the material skin 
and make it also useable for screen reader users, because it can become 
a good alternative to the different apps for LMS and make LMS more 
accessible in general.


If I can support somehow and test something, just let me know.

Cheers and thanks a lot for your support,

Currently I am using the Classic skin. Its more or less accessible, but
some plugins are causing problems which might not be related to the skin
itself, but to the fact that the templates for the html output for these
plugins are not working very well with my screen reading software.
Alltough the Classic skin still works and Michael said it will also work
in future releases of LMS it would be great to have the Material skin as
accessible as possible.
