So I've set up a Raspberry pi with PiCore, and it boots fine and offers a web page, which I was able to use to configure SqueezeLite to talk to my custom squeeze server. Kudos, this seems like a well-thought-out web interface.
I wasn't shocked to discover SqueezeLite and my server don't agree on the slim protocol - my server was written for version 81 of the squeezebox software, years ago, and of course things have changed. The first obstacle is that squeezelite expects to see a command sent to it from the server every ~30 seconds, or it disconnects. My server doesn't send anything periodically (and the original Classic was fine with that); and it's not obvious what I should send - I could do a hack like sending the volume over and over, but that can't be what's intended. The squeezelite code isn't particularly commented. I can slowly slog through the trial and error of "just keep trying stuff" but I'm hoping I can approach this more cleverly. What I probably need is the ability to contact the author and pester him with questions, but I don't know how. What's my best resource for figuring out what I need to change? My goal is to change only my server. I haven't found (helpful) documentation; does anyone have experience with the slim protocol? If I should be asking somewhere else, where? Any help welcome. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ScottAM's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69412 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110960 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
