Turned on my Windows 10 PC this morning and LMS is not running properly. But it was working fine yesterday.
In the system tray it says Logitech Media Server Starting, but normally that changes to Running. But today stays on Starting.
PC is running Windows 10.
I then tried upgrading to LMS 7.9 2 but this made no difference.
The Web Control will not open.
When I open the LMS Control Panel and I select Information fab, it just says No Status Information Available.
If I select Diagnostics, I get the following:
LMS Running
Server IP Address: 192.168.0.2
Port 3483 (slimproto): ok
Port 9000 (HTTP):
Port 9090 (CLI): Failed
Alert: LMS is running but cant be contacted on port 9000

Is there any possibility of LMS ever being able to access music files stored on Cloud services such as Dropbox?

I use a lot of (long) playlists and keep adding music to them. Sometimes it happens that I add a track that's already there. Is there a way to search for possible double entries? It would be nice when you would get a notification when you add a track that's already there, like the Spotify does. I have the playlist manager installed.

Hi,
Yesterday, and today, I've found LMS crashing whenever I attempted to browse my library.
I can browse, and play music, from my Squeezebox but not from my PC.
Everything else appears okay, e.g. 'Albums', apart from browsing 'Album Artists', 'All Artist', 'Composers' or 'Genres'.
I've attached log file and Events file but not sure what else may be required to ascertain the problem.
Thanks for any help.
Steve
P.S. It works fine when running LMS in 'Safe Mode'.

I just installed a new instance of LMS on a laptop while away from home. I am missing a random album menu item that used to appear under "my music" and gave a list of randomly chosen albums from which I could choose. Can someone remind me where this might have come from (plugin? modified LMS version?) and how I can get it again. I seem to remember that it was something that Michael Herger created. The LMS version I installed is 7.9.3 - 1579448956 @ Mon Jan 20 04:10:14 CET 2020

The simplest way to get LMS on a Pi is to install either Picoreplayer or Max2Play.
Here are the 'official' guides:
Max2Play -
https://www.max2play.com/en/wiki/starter-guide/
Picoreplayer -
https://www.picoreplayer.org/main_getting_started.shtml
[Official LMS installation software is at
https://mysqueezebox.com/download - includes Windows and MACos versions]
Many unofficial install guides are available via google search - YMMV .
Once a basic working version of LMS is installed (where I recommend leaving your local music library unspecified in the initial setup - this can be done at a later stage) the next step is to install the upnp/dlna bridge plugin for LMS
(See below).

When you're saying "TuneIn Radio", are you talking about the TuneIn app,
or the Internet Radio menu item?

Hello,
I have Logitech Media Server Version : 7.9.2 - 1578996832 and 3 picoreplayers (Modèle platine : SqueezeLite - Type platine : squeezelite - Micrologiciel : v1.8.7-1052)
Wake up alarms are installed with Radio starting @ 7:00 am.
Since some time, the radio channels are replaced by an alarm (Image is a bird corresponding to slim backup alarm )
What is the reason for this annoying situation ?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards

I know this issue comes up a lot- but I swear I've scoured the forum and can't find threads on it...
I recently had to reinstall LMS, which rebuilt my music database from scratch, and I'm having splitting problems that didn't exist before.
9 out of 10 songs will be on one album, the 10th will be on a new identical album. With the exact same name, capitalization and spelling...
The second problem is that I have multiple of the same artists with different capitalization. Which is very frustrating.
A third problem which I understand the cause of is some artists with "The" in their name are showing up as multiple artists:
The Stills
Stills, The
I know the best solution is to "fix" my tags but with many thousands of songs it's a big task...
Is there a way to fix the capitalization splits.. and how do I fix these albums split on seemingly nothing (see attached):

Hi all,
it won`t be long and I´m going cracy - would be great if someone can help me out.
I do have LMS 7.9.1 running on a Synology NAS.
I believe I had the following scenario anytime in the past already running - but not sure.
I can´t figure out how to run following scenario with 2 Touch and one SB player:
Touch A and Touch B should be synchronized and power on/off together.
SB C should be synchronized, but powered on/off individual when needed.
Settings in LMS:
Touch A: Synchronize with Touch B & C -- Power on/off: In Group
Touch B: Synchronize with Touch A & C -- Power on/off: In Gruop
SB C: Synchronize with Touch A & B -- Power on/off: independent
If I am only using Touch A&B all works like expected.
When in addition I power on "SB C" all works like expected -- BUT for whatever reason when I power off "SB C" the Touch A&B also power off - why??
What settings are wrong - or do I have to apply the settings in a special order?
Thanks so much in advance for your support

I am new to this forum and did see a thread about a similar issue but not the answer to it - hence reposting my problem. Spotty no longer works with my LMS. When I select Spotty in LMS or select squeezebox in Spotify the connection does no longer work and I get the error log as below? How can I fix this? I am using LMS 7.9.2 and Spotty is v3.1.3. Thanks for any hints!

Hello there,
For a couple of weeks, maybe more, LMS crashes silently and randomly (but at the rate of roughly once an hour).
The logs aren't very helpful, but you might see soething more. Here they are, before the crash and after I restarted the server:
[20-01-31 18:58:38.5704] Slim::Web::Graphics::__ANON__ (403) Artwork resize for music/7df8b5bb/cover_92x92.jpg failed

As for the setup:
Logitech Media Server Version : 7.9.3 - 1580338236 @ Thu Jan 30 04:07:41 WEST 2020
OS : Windows 10 - FR - cp1252
Usually the only player is Squeeze Player on Android.
Any clue ?

Of course it does. What particular feature are you wondering about?

Create a Custom.pm (Slim::Utils::OS::Custom) module inheriting from
whatever other module you like.

Do not modify existing files, as they'll be overwritten next time you

Creating a minimal Plugin would be more elegant imho.

I have a setup of 3 raspPis all running picoreplayer in my home, pulling from an LMS server (desktop windows 7pc) all controlled by iPeng. I had, when first setting everything up, setup mysqueezebox.com and everything worked beautifully for more than a year. I changed my Tidal subscription from hifi to just premium, and Tidal stopped working. I can still play music from the server, I can still find the tidal songs through the interface, it just doesn't actually output sound and will kind of skip from track to track.
I did some searching and it seemed like and LMS setting of "Direct streaming" vs "Proxied streaming" was the solution for some people, but this hasn't worked for me. I'm curious if this is a Tidal problem because of my lower subscription (and if so, i'll probably switch streaming services) or a setting problem on my side.
The strange part is that it seems like the connection from LMS to Mysqueezebox.com isn't working. I can enter my username and password and it seems to accept it, but then I don't see the devices as "active" through mysqueezebox.com. I've tried the old off/on logout/login with everything to no benefit.
seems like this thread talks about some of the topics, but without the same issue

Select the "Go To/Connect to Server" from Finder's menu. You can then
drag this connection to the "Login Items" in the user's settings to
auto-mount the share.

That's... a lot. How large is your library? What is your memory setting
in Settings/Advanced/Performance?
> Is there any reason why LMS would require so much RAM? ... Does LMS

In the "maximum" memory configuration it would use large buffers to keep
most of the library data in memory. And it takes advantage of more
memory to cache information in many other places. But still, 1.1GB seems
like too much.
