Dynamic metadata on BBC Radio 1 & 1Xtra but no other BBC stations

February 28, 2015, 3:57 am

Hi all.

I have noticed that on the iPlayer app playing the new HLS streams that Radio 1 and Radio 1Xtra both have dynamic metadata with information about the track playing, the show, and Newsbeat headlines. None of the other stations do this. Is there any reason why these two are different, and if it works for them, could it be made to work with the other BBC nationals?

It was the same situation with the old Shoutcast AAC streams.

Thanks and regards,
Nick

Batch / Mass rating?

Guess I’m not alone in congratulating Erland for these fantastic plug-ins – much appreciated. My question is simple, hopefully the answer is too! Can I “batch rate” a number of songs, either directly or via a Playlist? I’ve changed how I want to rate songs, so effectively need to “add one” to the majority of my ratings (3-star songs become 4-star etc).

Hope someone can help!

My set-up:
LogiTech MNedia Server 7.7.3 - 1375965195 on a Synology DS213j running DSM4
Softsqueeze via headphones or one of 2 SB Classics and a Boom
ONLY USE THEM VIA WEB INTERFACE – hardly ever touch the remotes.

Hi, since i created a network bridge wlan to lan on my cubietruck (Cubian X) my Squeezelite-armv6hf is not working anymore. It can't find the server on the same machine.
My other devices, Squeezebox, Squezelite on Raspberry, Squeezeplay on Macbook access the server with no trouble.

Hello all,
Just installed ickstream and Tidal service. I am able to play, for example, the genre playlists which I found out are mp3.
I am running LMS Version: 7.7.5 - 1416570306 on Win 7 64 bit. Tidal on web interface on my PC works fine.
When i try to play specific albums that are FLACs LMS just skips over them and I get the following in my log:

Shuffle and Random lock

Has anyone come up with a method of disabling "random" and "shuffle" modes, on the SBT, or at the server end.
We have a teenager in the house that listens to everything she has on shuffle, whereas the humans don't use this facility, so don't expect it to be on, which makes some albums a bit confusing, to say the least. Ideally we'd like to just stop these facilities from being selected, ever!

Fix to BBC Radio Applet Listen Again

Recent changes to BBC Listen Again have broken Triode's BBC Radio Applet.

Attached below is a replacement file for the Applet which works ok for me but I'm outside the UK so perhaps UK users can also test and see if it is a good fix.

1. Download and unzip the file.
2. Make sure you can ssh login into Radio/Touch
3. So you can revert make a backup copy of the Radio/Touch file /usr/share/jive/applets/BBCRadio/BBCRadioApplet.lua
4. Copy the downloaded and unzipped file BBCRadioApplet.lua to Radio/Touch /usr/share/jive/applets/BBCRadio/BBCRadioApplet.lua.
For example using scp from current directory assuming Touch/Radio is 192.168.1.58
scp BBCRadioApplet.lua root@192.168.1.58:/usr/share/jive/applets/BBCRadio/BBCRadioApplet.lua

edit:

New version of Lua file added to cope with latest BBC change.

Last.fm playlist generator?

Hi there,

I just had an idea:
Scrobbling music to last.fm is pretty easy, however, I haven't found any way to actually use the results yet. That's why I'm asking here: is there a way to create "Favourites" Playlists and recommendation Playlists via last.fm and then import and use them with streaming services like Qobuz?
Does this work already,and if not, would someone feel up to making it work? It appears to be available for XBMC/Kodi in some form already, so maybe it'll be possible to port it for Squeezebox?

Playing WMA Lossless files on OSX Squeezebox 7.7.5

interested to know if WMA Lossless files can be played on an OSX installation of LMS v 7.7.5? I saw some posts from 2009 which mention using mplayer which I have installed. This seems to be fine for WMA streaming but not for local files. I can convert to FLAC using DBpoweramp on a Windows PC but end up loosing album artwork on the way. Any guidance on how it might be done (if possible) would be appreciated.

Browsing the settings on my Napster iOS app last week, I noticed that Napster now has an option to stream at 320kbs.

Could we access this through LMS, or is this the sort of API dialogue that has long since gone between Logitech and 3rd party providers?

BBCiPlayer plugin - a guick fix guide

March 11, 2015, 11:20 am
$

The BBCiPlayer plugin is broken for both live and Listen Again (LA) streams.

The damage is due to the work of the BBC's Audio Factory.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The BBCiPlayer plugin is a LMS plugin.

The BBC Radio applet is a separate facility that can be installed directly on only the Touch and Radios
These fixes DO NOT apply to the applet.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FIXING the BBCiPlayer plugin
============================

There are temporary fixes for both live and LA. These are due to the sterling work of bpa & expectingtofly.

They may be broken by the Beeb again at any time!

This method comes with no liabilities on the poster or any of the other contributors!
You break it, you own it!

Both methods require that you are comfortable with manipulating some files located in the plugin directory.
See note a. below for the plugins folder location details.

You can fix both live and LA, or you can fix only one feature - your choice.

You need to ensure that the BBCiPlayer is already installed to make the fixes.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A. Fixing LIVE streams

This method will enable live streams. These now use a technology called HLS.

Full instructions for installing the new PlayHLS plugin are here:
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showth...hlight=PlayHLS

And to correct the addresses (URLs) of the live radio channels, you also have to change the menu.opml file (in the BBCiPlayer folder) to one of the files listed here (remember to change the name of the replacement to menu.opml):
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showth...l=1#post807276


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Fixing LISTEN AGAIN streams

There are two solutions.
One involves a change for the existing technology, called RTMP.
The other is somewhat more experimental and entails changes for the new HLS solution.

The RTMP fix retains the stop-seek-restart features for moving to any part of a radio programme. RTMP streams can access 320 kbps Radio 3 Listen Again
The HLS fix doesn't support seek. HLS streams can only access 128 kbps Radio 3 Listen Again

WARNINGS

!! Choose only one method!
!! Do not mix the fixes!



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RTMP fix: requires ONE replacment file
======================================

1. Download and copy the file: RTMP-BBCXMLParser.pm to the BBCiPlayer plugin folder

2. Rename the existing BBCXMLParser.pm to ORIGINAL-BBCXMLParser.pm

3. Rename RTMP-BBCXMLParser.pm to BBCXMLParser.pm

4. Delete the cache.db file in the /.../squeezeboxserver/cache folder

5. Reboot or Restart LMS


HLS: requires TWO replacement files
===================================

This requires that the PlayHLS plugin is also installed. See A. above before proceeding.

1. Download and copy the file: HLS-BBCXMLParser.pm to the BBCiPlayer plugin folder

2. Rename the existing BBCXMLParser.pm to ORIGINAL-BBCXMLParser.pm

3. Rename HLS-BBCXMLParser.pm to BBCXMLParser.pm

4. Download and copy the file: HLS-iPlayer.pm to the BBCiPlayer plugin folder

5. Rename the existing iPlayer.pm to ORIGINAL-iPlayer.pm

6. Rename HLS-iPlayer.pm to iPlayer.pm

7. Delete the cache.db file in the /.../squeezeboxserver/cache folder

8. Reboot or Restart LMS

-----------------------------------------------------------

Notes:

a. The files you need to change are located in the /.../squeezeboxserver/cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins/BBCiPlayer

On some Windows installations the files are located in /squeezebox/...

You can locate the location of the cache files for your installation via LMS-gui - Settings - Information page

b. If you get lost (!), simply uninstall and reinstall the BBCiPlayer plugin, and start again!

c. If you encounter any errors in the above, please PM me and I'll try to correct the text.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to PasTim for suggestions and corrections to my first attempts to write this guide

This may not be a specific issue with Orange Squeeze but I was not sure where to post this thread - hope here is ok. :)

I have the following:

SBT.

LMS running on laptop.

Galaxy Tab 3 tablet.

BT Home Hub.

***

I have just purchased Orange Squeeze for my tablet and it is a sexy little app.

***

I do have what I think is a problem and I have spent hours trying to sort it to no avail - maybe you can help?

With my laptop off I can access mysqueezebox.com from my SBT via the touchscreen.

I am unable to do perform this function from Orange Squeeze. If I attempt to login to mysqueezebox.com on Orange Squeeze (in the switch server function) I receive a message that "no player is connected to mysqueezebox.com".

I would really like to control radio output from my Orange Squeeze app even when my laptop is off. Try as I might I cannot make this happen.

***

Any help appreciated - even if someone tells me that Orange Squeeze is only designed to work with LMS running on eg laptop/NAS etc.

***

Thank you in advance if you have any ideas/info'.

Hi all,
Squeezelite is not working well now on my linux distro. It used to work very well.
Sometimes it works, but most often not, specially with usb dacs. I have an audioengine W1 for wireless play and a small usb sound card. I've got a sound but it's mostly scratches.
When I go to Pulse audio volume control play tab , the volume display flashes continually and I can't set it.
It's exactly the same problem with Squeezelite and squeezeslave.
The strange thing is that on the same computer, I've got no problems with other music players : VLC or clementine work perflectly.

Any ideas ?


PS : I also posted about my problem on linux/unix, sorry for this

Tidal Lost All Saved Artists, Albums, Everything

Hello all,
I installed ickstream and Tidal and was very happy. I had a fairly large list of artists that I had entered via the desktop app and was pleased to see that they also showed up in LMS/ickstream. BTW I am careful to log out of Tidal whenever I switch between players.

As of two days ago I started getting a "No content available." message when I try to access artists, albums, tracks, etc. What is more disturbing is that when I do a search, it will show me "Artists, Albums, Tracks" as though it had results from the search, but when I click on them they also give the "No content available" message. In other words, I can't play anything on Tidal. :(

I tried reinstalling ickstream, changing/restoring proxy setting (restarting LMS and logging out then back in, between each change) with no joy. I also tried endless search terms for Tidal problems with no results.

This is the repository I used: http://repository.ickstream.com/sque...ry-windows.xml

I am running:
SBT Firmware: 7.7.3-r16676 with EDO
LMS Version: 7.7.5 - 1416570306

Any help greatly appreciated,

WaveInput not working after JRiver installation

Everything had been working just fine with WaveInput until I installed JRiver as a music player on my Dell Vista desktop. Since then I have not been able to get WaveInput to stream into LMS 7.9

I've uninstalled JRiver. I've uninstalled and reinstalled drivers as well as WaveInput. I've tried to go back to a pre-JRiver restore point unsuccessfully, getting an "unidentified" restore problem error message.

To my eyes, everything *looks* okay. I still have Realtek's Stereo Mix driver under "recording". When I launch WaveInput, the minutes:seconds counter looks fine. There just aren't any sounds! (I'm not having any problem streaming audio files directly from my hard drive to my office stereo using my digital RCA cable.)

My assumption is that the installation of JRiver caused some sort of issue with the drivers, but I can't tell what happened.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm at a loss without my favorite third party plugin. Thanks!
