DNS-325: Error building libmediascan

Hi all, I cloned github's slimserver-vendor branch public/7.8 and tried a buildme.sh on a D-Link DNS-325 after building perl 5.14.4 (also tried 5.18.4) from scratch.

I always get an error on Media::Scan:

I managed to get all other libraries building properly, even start LMS on host:9000, but I can't add music folder... kind of useless! :-)

Any idea?

Thank you very much

Internet radio stopped working, including iPlayer

Have 2 SB3s and SqueezePlayer, all hard wired, running off Windows 7. It has all worked perfectly for months and suddenly the radio wont work at all. It just sits at 0.00 seconds and does nothing. If I go to iPlayer and try a replay by clicking on say Home->BBC iPlayer -> BBC Radio 4 FM then it comes up with the error message

"There was an error loading the remote feed for : (Connect timed out: The requested name is valid, but no data of the requested type was found.)"

As far as I am aware I haven't installed anything or changed anything. Playing CDs works fine.

Any ideas what could have gone wrong? Running Windows 7, installed about 3 months ago. Logitech Media Server Version: 7.7.3 - 1375965195 @ Mon Aug 12 11:14:33 CUT 2013

Hello,

I am running LMS on my QNAP for many years... until now :-(

Seems that upgrading my QNAP TS219+ to the latest firmware stop LMS from working normal. it won't boot up whan the QNAP starts. I don' know where to start. Downgrading the QNAP is no option. Anyone else using his QNAP nas for ruinning LMS, DON'T UPGRADE to 4.1.1 !!!

Tried upgrading LMS to 7.8.1, but no luck

Send all Search Results to Playlist?

$
0
0
I've got a great big collection of classical music tunes in my library. I ran a search in LMS to find any song that has the word "andante" in it, and it returned nearly 800 songs, which is good. It displays them on 7 pages of 100 songs apiece. I'd like to be able to send all those results to the playlist, which I will save.

How can I send them all to the playlist without adding them one at a time?

I have version 7.9 Logitech media sever and the first squeezebox. When I use it to play Audio books with more than 100 tracks, after playing track 10 then it plays track 101 etc. instead of track 11. How can I fix this issue? Thank you

Synch problems

$
0
0
I have a number of SB players & they all synch well together, via wireless.
However, I also have a PiCorePlayer streaming wirelessly to LMS 7.9.0 & I can never get it to synch to the others. It's always a fraction out.
I've read I can make adjustments to it by altering settings:
Player Start Delay (ms)

Player Audio Delay (ms)

Minimum Synchronization Adjustment (ms)

Network Packet Latency (ms)

but it doesn't make a difference. I've also tried adjusting these settings on all other players & leaving the Pi at default settings, but no joy.
It may be relevant that on the Information tab in Server Settings, I can see the wifi signal strength for all the players apart from the Pi, which is blank.

Please can anyone advise how to get it all in synch?

Many thanks

Creating podcast list that automatically update themselves

I use the Podcast app to store my podcasts, and often use Ipeng to listen. everyday I listen to the same news podcasts. Say I select the following podcasts to listen to tonight:

Diane Rehm Show,
Nightly Business Report,
Fresh Air,
Marketplace morning report

How can I create this list so that as the content is updated tomorrow, I can just select a single list to play instead of having to daily select the same podcasts to play?

Server not reachable after IP/Subnet-change

$

Hello,

I have an ubuntu 14.04-server running the LMS 7.7.4~14087066.

Over the years, i switched the LMS-versions and ubuntu-versions, fixed many issues, but this problem is new to me:

I had to change the IP-adresse and subnet from 192.168.1.15 to 192.168.2.15.

Since that, the LMS-server is not reachable, neighter by clients nor by web-browser. But the shell tells me, that the server is acctually running and the logs tell there are no issues whatsoever. All other services running on that ubuntu-machine work without problem, it is just the LMS-service which cannot be reached.

Any ideas where to look for or whats the reason?

Unfortunately, the ubuntu server is command line only, so i cannot use gui-tools there.

regards,
Norfolk

I've just upgraded to:

Logitech Media Server Version: 7.8.1 - 1414138422 @ Fri Oct 31 03:05:20 CUT 2014 on Windows 7

MY SB Touch players are fine but on the Boom the display when off is now blank even though screensaver when off = Date & Time, standby font = full_n and power off brightness = 3

The display does show the time if I press sleep button.

I just want it show the time when off, any ideas?

LMS on Ubuntu Trusty unusable after recent OS update - with fix

$
0
0
I spent the morning on this so I thought I'd like to share it in case it saves someone some time.
After a recent update of Ubuntu Trusty my logitechmediaserver stopped working.
The /var/log/squeezeboxserver/server.log didn't tell me much, despite repeated attempts to restart logitechmediaserver.
Running the binary squeezeboxserver from the command line directly as root did provide some error messages about YAML and XS
To cut a long story short, it seems there is a known bug in a debian perl package and this has found its way onto ubuntu.
As far as i can work out the perl has stopped using its own YAML implementation and would like to simply call a YAML implementation written in c.
However the upgraded perl YAML package does not have a debian dependency to the appropriate YAML implementation. So you end up with a broken YAML.
The fix is to install libyaml-0-2. To be certain this would solve matters I also installed libyaml-libyaml-perl.
Briefly:
sudo apt-get install libyaml-0-2 libyaml-libyaml-perl

Playlists not where LMS says they will be

LMS running on VortexBox.

I'm having a bit of a problem finding the playlists that LMS creates. In LMS's Settings, the location is shown as

Code:

/media/Music/Playlists for Media Server
But that folder is empty. I can see the "Playlists for Media Server" folder in /media/Music, but

Code:

[vortexbox.localdomain Music]# ls "Playlists for Media Server"
[vortexbox.localdomain Music]#

Bit of a puzzle there.

Can the scope of a Search be limited?

It appears that LMS's Search function searches the entire media library. How can the scope of the search be limited to, say, one folder and its subfolders only?

What version of LMS to install?

$

Hi,

When upgrading from 7.7.4 to 7.8/7.9 on a ubuntu 14.04 server, what version should I use when I want a "new" version, but still a reliable, stable one? Usually, I would take a "developer stable" version, which would be newer than an "official release" but not as buggy as a "developer nightly".

What version would that be regarding the Squeezebox?
The 7.8.0 released on 27.3.2014 - or the nightly builds for 7.8.1 or 7.9.0?
Or did I miss some othe version?

Here's the three I am looking at:

2014-03-27:
http://downloads.slimdevices.com/Log..._7.8.0_all.deb

Nightly:
http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nig...138422_all.deb

issues with cover.jpg not showing up

$

Hello,

I run Logitech Media Server Version: 7.7.3 on a headless Debian box, mostly it works very well.

I save a cover.jpg file in each album folder and this works perfectly fine for me.

Except on 2 folders. On these two folders, the cover art does not show up - even though I did "clear library and rescan everything" twice (before the second time I turned off caching of album art under "Settings->Advanced->Performance->Artwork Precaching"

Strange thing is that under "extras->image browser->albums" both artworks show up just fine.

The only odd thing I can think of with this is that with one of the two (maybe the other,not sure) the folder with the artwork was accidentally deleted, then went from the system after rescan, and was then restored from backup. Not sure if album art showed before the restore.

I saw references here and there to clearing the cache, but I don't see any place to do this in the GUI.

Any suggestions?

logitech media server can't connect to network storage

hi,

i've searched some through the forums (and elsewhere), but i can't find an answer so i figured i'd try a new thread.

i have a hard drive connected to my home router; it has my music on it. i've installed lms 7.7.4 on my laptop (windows 8.1). when i go into lms, the default libraries are on c:/. when i try to add the network storage (mapped as z:/), nothing shows up. i've tried adding the unc path name, but that doesn't add anything if i type it in manually (maybe i'm typing it wrong?)

under a previous installation of lms, i could browse to z:/music, but the program gave me some text about not being logged in as an administrator. further, after i added the z:/music folders, they didn't appear to save--i would go back in, and the default c:/documents folders would appear again as the libraries.

how do i get lms to recognize the music on my network drive as a library?

thanks!

Invalid value "-9" for treble

$

I have the original SLIMP3 player.

One of the features of this unit was an adjustable bass/treble.

With the versions of the LMS I've been running these past couple of years, it doesn't adjust the way I'd think it should.

First, after installing a fresh copy of LMS (right now I'm using LogitechMediaServer-7.9.0-1414759442.exe), both bass and treble are set to the maximum (+23), with the sliders all the way right.

I can slide the sliders to zero, which you'd think would be the "flat" response, seeing as the sliders slide from -23 to +23. But if I move either slider into negative territory and then click on "apply," I get 'Invalid value "-9" for treble' where the -9 is any negative value I attempt to use.

I know this is a real old player and I apologize for bringing this up, I'm not asking for a fix or anything, just wondering if anyone has any idea what is going on. I'm beginning to wonder if the slider should be 0...23 instead of -23...23, so maybe for flat response I should be setting bass and treble both to 12?

Or are the +23 values actually flat as far as the player is concerned, and it can really only trim the bass and treble?

It would just be nice to know what my actual player is being told, how it is being told to EQ.

Thanks! And thanks for all the hard work in releasing new versions of LMS. I don't want to sound like I'm griping, I'm not. I know this is an old player.

Squeezebox Hardware - Google TTS ?

$

Hi

Does anyone know? Will Squeezebox hardware like the SB Radio play Google TTS URLs ?

Like: http://translate.google.com/translat...ne+at+the+door

This can be tested in the LMS -> Radio -> Tune In URL

I don't have any actual hardware to test with.

I just tried to send the same URL to SqueezeLite running on my Linux (OpenElec) XBMC PC and it starts to play the URL in the LMS UI, but I don't hear anything.
Yet it plays other URLs like this: http://bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r1.asx radio stream fine.

Although SqueezeLite on my Windows PC plays the Google TTS URLs fine so maybe its a Linux thing.

Was thinking about buying a SB Radio for a Home Automation announcements project.

Many thanks
