Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] announce: ShairTunes2W - Airtunes on LMS (forked version with Windows support)

2022-12-14 Thread fredgoodman


I took a chance and updated the OS to Ventura, macos 13.1.  
Shairtunes2w is still working for me, with LMS 8.3.1, in native M1
architecture.  

What I don't dare doing however, is even trying to open the preferences
in the Shairtunes plugin.  Somehow i got the preferences set right in
all my flailing about. But previously in my flailing, I got into a deep
dark hole accessing the preferences, and I'm leaving well enough alone
for now.

Wow!  LMS 8.4 also works for me, but oddly it emulates x86 architecture
on my M1 machine.

I'm grateful for what you have done.  It looks like a heroic effort to
me.

Shairtunes *is already* working with M1, but only with LMS 8.2.x and
perl5.18.   

It's possible that the needed mods are on the LMS side, to make LMS
8.3.x work with M1 and whatever versions of perl ship with the current
macos (apparently 5.18 and 5.30).

2022-12-13 Thread fredgoodman


It seems that when LMS is upgraded to version 8.3.x  on macos,  it also
used perl5.34  (and/or possibly a custom version of perl from the LMS
team)


Code:

Logitech Media Server Version: 8.3.1 - 1670824772 @ Mon Dec 12 07:19:58 CET 
2022
  Hostname: Fredericks-Mac-Mini.local

  Audio::Scan: 1.06
  IO::Socket::SSL: 2.072
  Database Version: DBD::SQLite 1.58 (sqlite 3.22.0)
  Total Players Recognized: 2



According to an earlier post here by Philippe, his shairtunes2w  does
not work with perl5.34.

Forcing use of perl5.18, as suggested in this thread by Pazzazu worked
for me on my intel mac, but it did not work for me on my M1 mac -- LMS
simply wouldn't start when forced to use perl5.18.

Executive summary:  there seems to be a conflict between expectations
for versions of perl in LMS 8.3.x on macos and in shairtunes2w vs.
1.0.x.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] announce: ShairTunes2W - Airtunes on LMS (forked version with Windows support)

2022-12-13 Thread fredgoodman


I tried today's new version 1.0.15.   I got the same result, same error
messages in the log file.  I did set the helper file to arm64 in the
preferences (for macos M1).

Moreover, I have somehow once again got into the situation where the
preferences are no longer accessible through the web interface; trying
to access them gives the html error message:  

404 Not Found:
plugins/Extensions/settings/plugins/ShairTunes2W/settings/basic.html


Moreover,  I cannot correct this by uninstalling the plugin through the
plugins manager AND manually removing 

/Users/fgoodman/Library/Application\
Support/Squeezebox/plugin/shairtunes.prefs .

If I re-install shairtunes through the plugins manager, I just get back
to the "404 not found" message.

The last time I was here, the only escape I found was  to do a clean
install of LMS from scratch.   Evidently, when things go south, you are
leaving behind some piece of information somewhere which prevents trying
again with a clean slate.

I got myself into a slightly deeper impasse with this.  Out of
curiosity, I set the processor type to x86.  Now I can't even access the
preferences to set it back to M1.  Removing the plugin and re-installing
it (from the plugins manager page) does not help.  There must be a
configuration file left behind when the plugin is removed by the plugins
manager, and of course I don't know where to find it.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] announce: ShairTunes2W - Airtunes on LMS (forked version with Windows support)

2016-12-05 Thread fredgoodman

I previously commented that sharitunes2W works on my os x installation
of LMS, after some initial glitches which are unimportant.

Now what I find is that I can redirect output from several apps on iOS
on my iPhone to my squeezebox player ("Transporter").

Also I can redirect output from iTunes on my laptop to "Transporter" via
an airplay menu that is available in the iTunes application.

However, this does not work:  in the os x systems preferences, it is
possible to choose "Transporter"  of type "Airplay" as the output device
for system sound.  However, when I start some video, e.g. inside my web
browser "Safari",  I get no sound output via LMS.I can provide the
LMS log if desired.

Of course, this is not terribly important to me, but it would be nice to
be able to view music videos on my mac laptop and have the sound play
through LMS.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] announce: ShairTunes2W - Airtunes on LMS (forked version with Windows support)

2016-11-28 Thread fredgoodman

I tried to install both (but not together of course)  airtunes2 and
airtunes2W plugins on  LMS 7.9.0 on os x 10.7.5.  Neither seemed to
work.  In particular the LMS server log contains the line: 
avahi-publish-player not in path  (for both versions of the plugin.)

Do I have to install avahi separately?  OS X  already has bonjour built
in, but the plugins probably don't know where to find it. If so, how do
I do that?  There was no avahi-daemon running nor a file
/etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf on my system.

Thanks.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] iPeng support thread

2013-04-26 Thread fredgoodman

I have the latest iPeng on iphone 5 with latest iOS.I had to install
a new router in my house.  After that, iPeng doesn't find my players. 
It no longer automatically finds my LMS server either, but it gives me
the chance to enter it in the settings.   Playing from the server to the
players using the web interface works fine; i.e. the players and LMS
communicate correctly.I tried reinstalling iPeng, but that didn't
help.  I am not using myqueezebox, just a local server.  Is there a way
to tell iPeng about the players?

By the way,  the logitech squeezebox app also doesn't find players or
the server after installing the new router.

Yes, the iphone is on wifi.  Running a network scanner from the iPhone
(inet or fing)  finds the computer running LMS as well as both players.

I wonder how ipeng identifies players as players?  Does it use
information from LMS?

By the way, after reinstalling iPeng, and entering the server address in
settings,  iPeng seems to be just spinning it's wheels loading the music
database.
It's been quite some time, maybe an hour, and iPeng still says it's
loading the database.

Thanks for the suggestion to try to connect from the iPhone to the LMS
web server; that didn't work either, and that tipped me off to the
problem.  The anti-virus/anti-vandal software on the computer with the
LMS server had blocked the (new) ip address of my iPhone, as a result of
the iPhone scanning the network.  I removed the block and now iPeng is
back in business.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] IR blaster -- volume buttons on server webpage?

2010-06-03 Thread fredgoodman

Yes, that does work, thanks.

In fact, it works better than volume +/-  using the logitech remote and
IR blaster, because on the web interface, one can click quickly several
times in quick succession to change volume by several steps.

On the original device remote, a single quick press of volume up/down
gives one step change in volume,  while a sustained press gives several
steps in quick succession, after a brief pause. I suppose this is the
usual behavior for control of volume by remotes.

It would be nice if the plugin author could also emulate this behavior.
I don't know if this was the intention, but in any case, I don't get
this (desirable) behavior.

Nevertheless, it is remarkable that the plugin works as well as it
does.  Thanks to the author!

[SlimDevices: Plugins] IR blaster -- volume buttons on server webpage?

2010-05-31 Thread fredgoodman

Would it be possible for the developer of IR blaster to put buttons on
the Squeezebox Server webpage to control volume via whatever mechanism
is defined through the IR blaster settings?
In case the main server webpage is off limits to plugin developers,
would it be possible to have another little floating window with volume
up/down buttons?

When volume up/down is enabled in IR blaster, the volume setting of the
player itself is fixed, and there is no volume control from the Server
webpage.   In this case, I would like to have volume up/down buttons on
the Server webpage which would be functionally equivalent to  the volume
up/down buttons on the remote control, and which would result in sending
volume up/down signals to the preamp or amp.

Thanks.
