Don't know, really. I'm not an expert, just pretend to be one in forums... :) After making the plug-in, FreeBSD users would have to know to install the additional repo: http://www.herger.net/slim-plugins/repo.xml to get the 'right' spotty for them, correct? I didn't know that existed until 5 minutes ago... In short, will the experience actually be better than just replacing the spotty binary? As you pointed out in earlier posts, if someone uses FreeBSD it is expected they know how to use it. But, if there is a perfectly good reason, I would be willing to see if this is something I could sustain for all the spotty releases to come.

Okay, didnt think you would want that (a Spotty mention for every non default supported platform in the plug-in list) but thinking about it would probably be 3 or 4 at best and it's clearly an important, much wanted plug-in (100 pages and counting!). mherger wrote: > > > I'll send you a plugin template later today/tomorrow. > I'll wait for it and give it a try.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty v1.1.0
Earlier in this thread, two posters, 'mrMuppet' and 'mnd999', seem to have succeeded in compilling Spotty for FreeBSD. I'm not looking forward to install my own Rust/Cargo environment and clone the Spotty helper application repository to see if I can get a working Spotty. I will if I have to, but maybe 'mrMuppet' or 'mnd999' are willing to share their hard work?? What I find curious: If you look at the latest FreeBSD port of the Logitechmediaserver (7.9.1.g2017.07.11) it explicitely states: - fully support spotty plugin for Spotify support.

"I'm not looking forward to install my own Rust/Cargo environment and clone the Spotty helper application repository to see if I can get a working Spotty" Well, that turned out to be easy. Used a different computer from where LMS is running, to not clutter it up with stuff I probably won't use for anything else than compile Spotty... It compiled the first time, without errors on FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p1. Copied the compiled spotty to: /var/db/logitechmediaserver/cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins/Spotty/Bin > chown slimserv:slimserv spotty > chmod 755 spotty and it worked. Not sure how I can tell what version of spotty this is (no -v option), but I cloned it today. In the 'Advanced' setting of LMS it tells me: -Spotty Helper Application /var/db/logitechmediaserver/cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins/Spotty/Bin/spotty (v0.6.2) - I've attached the compiled spotty for other people to use.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty v1.1.0
For people running LMS on FreeBSD (Or eg. in a jail on FreeNAS), and wanting to use Spotify, Michael Herger's 'Spotty' plugin works with the latest official LMS port for FreeBSD (7.9.1.g2017.07.11) without problems. What does NOT work is the helper application for Spotty. This has to be compiled for FreeBSD. I did that earlier and posted the result in post #950 in this thread. Now it's even easier. There is a plug-in available for just the helper application for FreeBSD (Spotty helper application for FreeBSD 11). Install that together with the "Spotty" plugin and you should be fine. It could be that the Perl5 interface to SSL sockets (IO::Socket::SSL) has to be installed also. I used ports: cd /usr/ports/security/p5-IO-Socket-SSL/ and 'make install clean'. If you want to use pkg: pkg install p5-IO-Socket-SSL. Thank's again to Michael. His work helps very much to keep the Squeezebox a usable device. For people using this, consider a donation to him (see herger.net). It could make a difference while he is struggling to make the 'connect' feature possible...

The 'normal' Spotty helper application won't run on that. You need the 'Spotty helper plug-in for FreeBSD 11' to get this working. But having said that, you seem to be using a really old (3,5 year) FreeNAS version based on FreeBSD 9.2, not sure the helper plug-in will run on that. Probably not. You could update to FreeNAS 11 and if you do, I would also advise to then build the latest LMS from ports (7.9.1.g2017.07.11) as 7.8 is also old. I'm running FreeNAS 11.0-U3, with LMS 7.9.1 in a jail, and Spotty works perfectly fine with that setup.

Maybe set the default according to what is set in de playersettings? If 'Volume control' is set to 'output level is fixed at 100%' make Spotty not sync the volume.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty v1.9.0 - now with experimental Spotify Connect support!
Have been using Spotty for months, but only recently switched to the latest version and started using connect. First off all: really impressed that Michael made this possible to use on the Squeezebox players. I use Spotify every day and am really happy I can still use my aging hardware for this. What I see so far are just minor points, and could be related to something specific to my setup, but wanted to mention them anyway. If I use connect to listen to a playlist (start the music on a Spotify app on Windows) the SB player starts with a delay that can be anything between 2 and 20 seconds, but almost always it is about 10 seconds. That delay stays constant during a song. When the Spotify client is at the end of the song (so, let's say 10 seconds ahead of the SB player), the artwork and songtitle/artist information on the SB player changes to the next song (kinda in sync with the Spotify app). At this point the remaining time display on the SB player usually jumps to 0:00 with the total track time of the new song and stays that way until the next songs starts playing (~ 10s). The current song continous to play to the end on the SB player, without any interruption or artifacts. The time display can also get a bit weird in the intermittent part between when the Spotify app starts the next song and when the SB player does. The total track time seems to be always the correct time of the next song, but the remaining time sometimes indicates 1:31 or 2:00 or something. This always corrects itself when the SB player starts the song. So when you don't look at the SB player, everything is fine, no problems with the music, just the artwork/title/artist/time information is not in sync during the last ~10 seconds. I guess the delay between the Spotify app and the SB player is to be expected. If I look at the traffic graphs on my router, each song starts with a burst of 4/5/6 MByte during a few seconds and then not much, if anything after that. It seems like it's downloading the complete song and then playing it locally? Just guessing here. Using Spotty 1.99.3 with the helper application version 0.81.

I never used this so I tested this as you requested. I still had Spotty 2.1.1 running and first tested with that. Both Connect targets are SB Touch, both were turned on beforehand, not playing anything. Used the Spotify app on my phone to Connect to one touch, played fine, then switched to the other Touch. The first stopped playback (but kept it's position) and the second one started playing from the time when I switched. Did this a couple of times without problems. Upgraded to Spotty 2.1.8. Restarted LMS and both Touch'es. I can still switch between them in the same way, but now every time the Touch I switch TO get's it's volume set to zero. If I turn up the volume it plays normally. I tried this 5 times and the same behaviour. The target touch plays, but with the volume set to zero. So, yes I can switch between players, but have to turn up the volume every time I do that.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 2.8.x - Spotify Connect for your Squeezebox
Most likely not the cause why Spotty isn't working, but does Systemline provide updates? LMS 7.8.0 is now 5 years old. There are some functions (like seeking within a track) that will need a newer LMS version, wouldn't hurt to update, if possible.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.4 - more personalised content
That does happen from time to time. Most Spotty users share the same "Spotify Client ID", and its amount of allowed connections is limited See, for instance: https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?112962-Announce-Spotty-4-4-more-personalised-content=990990=1#post990990 Most likely it has nothing to do with the version you are using.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Radio Paradise plugin 'now playing' info
Still stuck on 'Ray LaMontagne, In My Own Way'. Maybe it has something to do with synced players, cause that doesn't seem to work with the Radio Paradise app? I have 2 synced players (both Touch), whenever I turn on the other from where I made the original Radio Paradise selection it always tells me something like: "can't open https stream for //radioparadise" (don't remember exactly). Of course, that does work, I can navigate there through the menu and it plays perfectly and in sync with the other.

Right now the 'Now Playing' info for the Mellow FLAC regular stream is 'stuck' again for at least a couple of hours. It is stuck on 'Ray LaMontagne, In My Own Way'. As before the other 'Mellow' streams are fine, as are all the main mixes. If I listen to something different and come back to the Mellow FLAC regular stream, I just see the above now playing info, the music itself is correct. https://api.radioparadise.com/api/now_playing?chan=1 gives me the correct song. No update to the above version for either LMS or the Radio Paradise plugin.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Radio Paradise plugin 'now playing' info
Yes, it only happens with Mellow and ONLY with the FLAC regular stream. FLAC interactive and the AAC streams are fine. Currently the 'now playing' info changed to 'Tom McRae, For The Restless', and is stuck at that for some time now, it's not the song that is playing I'll try to get a useful log.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Radio Paradise plugin 'now playing' info
Log file with the Radio Paradise plugin in 'debug' mode is attached. Although I 'edited' it to make it even more clear when I switched streams, I didn't take anything out, this is all that's in the log. It looks like the Mellow mix, regular stream only looks at a (local) cache, while the interactive stream is actively polling. I don't want to complicate things, but maybe it has something to do with this. Like I wrote above, I have 2 synced players (both Touch), whenever I turn on the other from where I made the original Radio Paradise selection it always gives me a message on the display of the touch. Today it did that again, but unlike I wrote it says something like:"Can't open file for.." the rest is off screen and the message almost immediately disappears. Nothing in the log about it. Hope this helps, if you need more info, let me know. +---+ |Filename: radio_paradise_log_20210502.txt | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=34503| +---+ NeverSimple's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36242 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114302 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

{"time":211,"artist":"Nick Drake","title":"River Man","album":"Five

So I went to check the Mellow mix - FLAC regular stream and . It now
shows me Nick Drake Wut? Next song (John Mayall, Sensitive kind:
great song!) did refresh correctly (albeit 15s early). Next song also
refreshed
Don't know what triggered this. I'm sure it has never worked for me, at
least not after upgrading to LMS8. Updates to LMS8 (so reboots) and/or
new player firmware did not change that. Always was stuck on 'Sweet'
from 'Cigarettes After Sex'
So don't know what happened but I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks for
checking it. Love the plugin and use it a lot.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Radio Paradise plugin 'now playing' info
If I play the 'Mellow Mix' > 'FLAC *regular *stream', through the Radio Paradise plugin, the 'now playing' screen never refreshes, the music itself is fine. Mine is stuck on the same info for weeks, maybe months. The 'now playing' info on other 'Mellow Mix' streams (FLAC Interactive and AAC) is fine. On the 'Main' mixes the 'now playing' info is also fine. So, no big deal, I just select the 'Mellow mix - interactive' stream. But still curious, is anyone else seeing this?
