OpenMediaVault was an option I evaluated as well as XigmaNAS, but I think they would be poor choices to be used more as a streaming server than as a NAS. Thank for your opinion.

If use it in the app it can be used as a network stream source, but then it says 200 ok and errorcode -1 every second. So it looks this stream.mp3 is not behaving like the progam is expecting. I only get some hackling bad quality sounds from it every now and then. How about the oneliner i'm looking for if I use squeezelite-x as a client for the program.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Oneliner to get currentsong or now playing artist + songtitle on specific player
Not sure it can be done with a one liner, because you first need a path
to or id of the current song, then a second query gets the songinfo.
I haven't coded with PowerShell in a while, but there's the
Invoke-Webrequest method that will allow you to post both queries, then
PS can easily parse the json return objects.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.utility/invoke-webrequest?view=powershell-7.2
The queries are documented here:
http://:9000/html/docs/cli-api.html
Here's how I do it from an RPi in the C language:
(mac is the macId of the player, tags is an optional list of tags
to be returned)
sprintf(query,"{"id":1,"method":"slim.request","params":["%s",["path","?"]]}",mac);
post(host,port,query,decoded,2048);
... (grab the _path result from the returned json into a var named
p) ...
sprintf(query,"{"method":"slim.request","params":["%s",["songinfo",0,99,"url:%s","tags:%s"]]}",mac,p,tags);
post(host,port,query,decoded,2048);
... (grab the name/value pairs from the returned json for album,
artist, etc.)

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Best linux distro to install Logitech Media Server?
Hi all, I am going to repurpouse a 12 years old NAS box (Thecus N4200 with Intel Atom® D510, 4 SATA bay) to be used mainly as a Logitech Media Server setup with various Raspberry Pi (and a couple of Seagate Dockstars) running Squeezelite around the house and office. Since the NAS box is actually a PC upgraded to 4GB RAM, 32GB CF for boot/rootfs, 4x2TB hard drives attached to an hardware RAID controller for data (unused by Thecus firmware, while I will use it instead), I can actually choose whatever linux distro I prefer to run on it. I plan to run the NAS headless (set aside the installation process) so I do not need any window environment. I have nice experience installing, configuring and throubleshooting Ubuntu server, ARCH Linux, some FreeBSD and some Debian. Then comes the hard question: what linux distro would you choose to run LMS and why? Thanx in advance for your opinion folks!

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Oneliner to get currentsong or now playing artist + songtitle on specific player
stream.mp3 is a real player. When you connect to it you will see a new player appear in the list and you can then queue songs to it Paul Webster author of \"now playing\" plugins covering radio france (fip etc), planetradio (bauer - kiss, absolute, scala, jazzfm etc), kcrw, abc australia and cbc/radio-canada and, via the extra \"radio now playing\" plugin lots more - see https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?115201-announce-radio-now-playing-plugin Paul Webster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=105 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115989 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Sounds logical. The program accepts the url (i think), but its shows no info. Does this stream work with "Icy-MetaData: 1" ? How does LMS know which stream to catch in the /stream.mp3? Because I have more than one player in my network.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Replay Gain for Streams
I'm looking for a way to adjust the gain of 1 or 2 of my favourite Shoutcast/Icecast streams that consistently have high loudness levels (around +4dB by ffmpeg EBUR128 filter report). I'm aware of: - global setting (default -5) for streams - applies to all streams unless... - (Replay)gain tags found in streams. Having searched around, including here: https://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SlimServerSupportedTags.html I'm not sure what's the best/right tag to use - there are a few. 1) What is the best/right tag, and how does it appear in the stream (example? HTTP/ICY header?). Which file(s) in LMS define the matching strings ? 2) I could set the gain via the CLI, or perhaps add a param to a favourite, but no option currently exists AFAIK. For now I adjust volume semi-automatically via CLI, but any change of source means volume is wrong without tracking user + source changes which is involved. Any suggestions where to look in the code to set gain not volume? Maybe I could offer a patch and add a CLI command or favourite param ? 3) I looked at using a local Icecast relay to add RG tag. This works in principle (actually not so complicated), and provides a way to update metadata, but so far I can only force song name, not RG tag, after trying several of the tags listed above. I'm not sure (vanilla) Icecast will support it.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Oneliner to get currentsong or now playing artist + songtitle on specific player
Hi michael,
I need a line for a program called radiocaster it can point to an URL or
a txt file to show artist title info in the stream it catches from audio
output (which has no info) or even a networksource.
I found a little more info using this command;
curl -v 'http://192.168.1.29:9000/jsonrpc.js' --data-raw
'{"id":1,"method":"slim.request","params":["08:00:27:6c:e1:a2",["stop"]]}'
It controls my player play/stop. Is there also command to only show the
current song from that player??
But since I don't know any of the parameters I don't know how to proceed
I use squeezelite-x as a client and the material interface.
Greetings,
Henk
NB: Thx for the help on my ID3tag problem the other day.

I need a one line URL to get the now playing song and artist info. What kine of one liner do you need? A URL? A script returning data in a specific format? What's going to execute the one line, and what is consuming it? ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
