Basic questions - which LMS is most current for RN312?

$
0
0
I have two SB Radios - faithful beasts and I applaud the community here for their dedication.

I use a Readynas RN312 with these two radios and until now this has served my needs by:
a) Playing spotify
b) Playing radio
c) Playing podcasts

CUrrent version of the LMS on the Readynas is: 7.9.0 - TRUNK @ UNKNOWN
Current version of software on the radios is 7.7.3r16676

The radios were in storage during some building work and now that is over I'm trying to get things up and running again. All is fine apart from podcasts which all fetch an uptodate list of the podcasts but all fail to load with a 'Connection timed out' error.

If I connect to mysqueezebox.com, some of the podcasts load but several fail with a 403 forbidden error.

My questions:
1) Any software I should be updating here? I know there is 7.9.1 (unsupported) and tried uploading the debian x86 package to the Readynas. It seemed to install (successful message) but the same version of the LMS (7.9.0) is on the NAS.
2) What's going on with my podcasts?

Grateful for any help. Apologies for wafer-thin knowledge of how these things really work. But so reluctant to try another solution to my audio needs here as I love these two radios.

would it be possible to protect setup part of LMS via PIN or password?

TBH: I have no idea whether this is still supposed to work... I think
all it did was remove the links from the web UI. But nothing on device.

With Radio/Touch you should be able to bring up a context menu on those
menu items allowing you to move or hide it.

CLI command for adding current track to playlist

$
0
0
Hi.

What's the correct CLI command to add the currently playing track to a playlist named "Review Later" (if that's possible)? Over time I've tried several commands but the tracks never show up in the playlist.


Oh, and an extra bonus would be: if for some reason I have accidentally deleted my playlist "Review Later" LMS should recreate it before adding the current track (unless it does so anyway). But as I said, I never got this far.

Thank you - many times.

Perl 5.28, general dpkg update woes, and a new problem with Trackstat?

There are, but x86_64 only.

I try to avoid "exotic" platforms, as they're just ballast for 99+% of
the users. And as you noticed yourself, i386 is becoming exotic. I
usually wait a while after a new Perl has shown up to see what platforms
people are asking for support for it.

I'd recommend you post this to a TrackStat related thread.

How are videos streamed (Why are my MKV not playable)?

$

I use minidlna on a raspberry to stream my MKV videos to my TV. I also use LMS for streaming audio to my squeezeboxes. I thought about doing the video also with LMS but the videos are not playable on my TV. They are displayed as folders and files, though. I was wondering which part of LMS is doing the streaming, since minidlna works fine with all my files.

Administrator Privileges

Hi
I am running Logitech Media Server Version 7.9.2/r1555406898.
On previous versions, I have been able to run it as administrator and the red warning disappeared from the top of the Logitech Media Server control panel, but this version does not seem to allow a right click "run as administrator" from the start menu.
I am running Windows 10 64 bit, auto updated by Microsoft.
Is this a known issue or does the red warning stay put, in this version, whether its in administrator mode or not?
The version is working as expected in all other respects.
Many thanks

Can not validate mysqueezebox.com account error from LMS

$

Hi All,

Firstly thank you for keeping LMS alive :D

I have been using LMS on my server(s) for years without a problem then recently I am no longer able to connect to mysqueezebox.com either directly from the squeezebox radio, or when I try in LMS.
LMS gives me the following error: "An unexpected error has occurred while validating your mysqueezebox.com account. Please make sure your network connectivity is working fine".

Now I have just replaced my ASUS router for a newer model, but this problem was present before the upgrade with the radios giving me the red connectivity icon when steaming from an app.
On the diagnostics tab everything is "OK" and I can browser to mysqueezebox (and log in) on the same computer.

Any ideas please? PC is running Windows Server Standard 2019.

Thank You

LMS not showing SDT screensaver and has constant asterisk on screen

$

To all,

I recently began having this problem on my 2 SB2s after I installed the latest version of SDT; it was loaded via the repository. I have uninstalled/reinstalled SDT with no change. I manually placed SDT instead of using the repository but that did not help either. I checked both devices to see that they are set to use SDT and not Date/Time or none. Another bit of information is that before the problem started my first SB2 would not start but gave the message that I should contact MSB.com to reset the MAC address. I was able to get into MSB.com just fine and it showed that both devices were detected. When I left the MSB.com site the SB2 started up but had the problem with SDT and the asterisk; and both SB2s still have the problem..

Suggestions would be appreciated,

Richard

Issue with logitechmediaserver_7.9.2~1559133196_amd64.deb?

$

I just updated to logitechmediaserver_7.9.2~1559133196_amd64.deb on my Ubuntu LMS server and now cannot connect to LMS.

I'm wondering if there is an issue with the update. I know fairly recently a .pm file was checked in which would not compile and this totally broke LMS for me. I had to manually update the .pm and restart.

Where can I see if there are any perl compilation errors on a Ubuntu install? There's nothing immediately obvious in server.log. Journalctl says something has gone wrong when the service restarts.

Is there a stable version of 7.9.2? I'm only aware of the nightly builds. Or is it possible to download earlier nightly builds and reinstall?

Lost connection to LMS, think port 9000 is blocked

Hi all,

So last night all of a sudden I lost connection to both the LMS web UI and all players lost contact to LMS. Interestingly I can connect to mysqueezebox so can get deezer etc., but nothing local. Restarted LMS service, restarted router and server, but nothing changed.

I can ping my server no problem and access the music folders via a Samba server. However, when I opened a telnet link to the 9000 port from my laptop I get

Connecting To 192.168.0.8...Could not open connection to the host, on port 9000: Connect failed

I've checked the LMS log and it seems to start fine, but then all connections time out (see below)

I'm pretty confused. It seems like the port is blocked to out-going traffic.

I'm running LMS 7.9.1 on Ubuntu 17.10 server. SBs are Touch, Receiver and 2 radios, all using wifi.

I'm no Linux wiz so if you could include commands to use if asking me to do stuff, that'd be great.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance,

How can I shuffle the play queue this way?

$
0
0
Hello,

I have a music selection and playback workflow that I developed with several other players. It's fairly simple, but I can't figure out exactly how to do it with LMS. Let me describe that workflow:

1. Find albums, one by one, and add them to the play queue. I can do this with LMS.
2. Shuffle the songs in the play queue so they are in a random-ish order and then leave them in that same order. I know how to turn on shuffle mode, but it doesn't act the way I expect. It seems to reshuffle any time tracks are added. Which I don't want it to do because...
3. Hours later, I add another album or two.
4. Shuffle only the remaining tracks, including the newly added files.

What keeps happening to me is, when I add a track or an album, LMS re-shuffles the play queue and then songs that have already played are shuffled back into the mix. Also, the order that was there before is gone. I sometimes like to insert a track or two into a random mix. With shuffle mode turned on, I don't seem to be able to do this.

What I'd really like to find is a way to just shuffle the tracks in the play queue *once* and not keep reshuffling them. Ideally I would be able to only shuffle the remaining tracks so I don't get repeats of tracks I already heard from this play queue.

Are there a combination of plugins that might let me do this? Or any other clever techniques I could use to emulate this?

Thanks,

Brian.

I'm getting this new, odd message when trying to play some new files. I've never named a location for Playlists Folder while performing an LMS scan before. i do have the "Use iTunes" box checked (whatever that does). I've rescanned a couple times without success. I added a "dummy" playlist folder location but that just resulted in my being prompted to name and save a playlist, which is something I'm not gonna do!

I keep getting kicked off Shairtunes

I'm running picoreplayer 3.5 on a raspberry pi 3.

I am running the app Shairtunes2 by Phillipe within LMS.

It is always available to connect to, and I am able to connect to it, but after a minute or so after connecting from my iphone it just drops out and I'm no longer connected.

It's worth noting that picoreplayer has its own ios integration called Shairport-sync, which I don't have enabled as when it is through LMS I'm able to view and control it through jivelite, but not when its through picoreplayer.

Anyone come across this?

How do you uninstall a plugin without the web UI (Linux)?

No, you'd have to add it to the startup parameters (sometimes defined in
something like /etc/defaults/logitechmediaserver or the like, or the
startup script itself).

LMS Running/Not Running

$

I hope the following mystery can be easily solved. I have three Rasp3B+'s each running the same version of pCP and they are configured identically, including having "Set Autostart" of LMS to yes. They have been operating beautifully for awhile but then one unit did not autostart LMS and I was unable to restart it inline or by rebooting. I ended up having to reinstall pCP on the SD card to restore LMS function.

Now a second unit has exhibited the same problem. Initially the main page will say Squeezelite and LMS are running, but when the LMS page is activated it says LMS is not running and the main page then confirms this. Restart of LMS and reboot of Raspi are to no avail.

Any clues on how to fix this without reinstalling pCP?
Thanks!
