Please run the following from a terminal window:

/Library/PreferencePanes/Squeezebox.prefPane/Contents/server/slimserver.pl

What would that tell you?

The Log folder actually might be the problem: we've seen cases where
that folder wasn't writable to the LMS user, thus LMS fails to start. If
that's the case for you, you can give this script a try:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/bpx32ytk7y...sions.zip?dl=0

Download, extract, run. It'll ask for admin permissions, as it'll have
to change permissions on some folders.

At the top there's a drop down with logging categories. Pick the scanner

New and changed scan deleted items

$

I have always wondered why every time I do a "new and changed scan" I see 3 tracks deleted. I just checked the scanner log and see that 3 playlists are deleted during the scan then immediately rescanned and added. Does that seem right?

LMS internal "software updates" function - how to make it pick up 7.9.2?

Reading the Dockerfile
(https://hub.docker.com/r/justifiably...ver/dockerfile),
there's a line which says:

"# Pass in LMSDEB to override. Using a nightly release, can be updated
in place without rebuilding image.
ARG
LMSDEB=http://downloads.slimdevices.com/LogitechMediaServer_v7.9.1/logitechmediaserver_7.9.1_all.deb"

So I must assume you'd define the LMSDEB variable in the command line
launching the image.

Just search for those files on your Mac, and replace them. Again: go to

The log file indeed suggests the Perl modules were missing. Alas: we do
ship them for this platform. That should just work.

A new version of Logitech Media Server is available. (Click here) then page can't dis

This is the 1st time this happen. I all ways click on the "A new version of Logitech Media Server is available. (Click here)" and it says to then use this command:

sudo dpkg -i /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/cache/updates/logitechmediaserver_7.9.2~1559745322_amd64.deb

I did that and now I get This site can’t be reached when I got to port 9000.

Using Ubuntu Linux 18.04.2 server.

I don't remember this every happening before.

Even rebooted my server and it still don't work.

Keep on refreshing after I try things and still can't be reached.

Do a service logitechmediaserver status and got back this:

If I do service logitechmediaserver start it just comes right back with no errors but still can't go to port 9000.

Any way to fix this?

Albums not showing up

$
0
0
Hi,

This is my first post on this forum. Hope this thread is in the right category.

The following is the case - I have a few Nina Simone albums. All are HDTracks downloads. All albums are in the same library folder, on my Synology NAS with LMS 7.9.2, and in the same Nina Simone folder (see pic below).
And all albums are handled the same, by renaming all tracks to the same format and running them all through "MusicBrainz Picard", so that they have the correct tags.
But, with Nina Simone only the "Baltimore" album shows up and "Pastel Blues" doesn't (see pic below). In recent years I even had some Nina Simone CD rips, in the same folder, but these don't show up as well.
For now, it only happens with this artist.

Has anybody any clues / tips / solution ?

Thank in advance.

Are you setting the time through the web or player UI? Could you try the
other option? Is your LMS set to use 24h but you're using am/pm or
something?

Cover art not displaying consistently either in LMS or iPeng app

$
0
0
Hi, I'm using a SOtM SMS-200 network player running Squeezelite to stream my music files (mainly FLAC, some mp3) stored on my NAS and using iPeng app on an iPad as the control interface. As my music library approaches 5000 albums I am finding that album cover art is not always displaying, either within LMS web or iPeng. Reading advice on these forums I have done a 'clear and re-scan' within LMS but this does not help.

Most of my cover art is sized at 800 x 800 pixels and is imbedded in FLAC or mp3 files, and where possible I save the image as Folder.jpg in the root folder. I am pretty careful with tagging and folder structure. In the LMS help files I see reference to "pre-caching" of artwork and resizing options. I have chosen to resize artwork on the local server, but this does not seem to help.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Todays LMS Nightly not starting on Windows 10

@michael

I've just downloaded todays LMS Nightly, LogitechMediaServer-7.9.2-1561089896.exe, and it refuses to start correctly on Windows 10. Can't get LMS to display in any browser & Control Panel is extremely slow to start - when it does start LMS is shown as running but it isn't possible stop it. I only have an old April version of LMS available to try but when I installed over todays version it functioned immediately. Everything was fine on the previous nightly, just todays install is causing a problem.

Is it possible to download the previous nightly from somewhere so I can can get back up and running with something that I know works correctly?

Relevant part of server log from LogitechMediaServer-7.9.2-1561089896.exe install and attempt to start...
