RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - nick w - 2014-04-13
Bossanova,
Is there an easy way to force the script to use set details than variables from the settings xml?
Thanks
N
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - nickr - 2014-04-14
Just edit the script.
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-14
I can't really follow all those audio settings like that to be honest.
E.g. is passthrough on or off?
<passthrough default="true">false</passthrough>
<passthroughdevice default="true">ALSA:hdmi:CARD=HDMI,DEV=0</passthroughdevice>
And yeah, as nickr said - in default.py it's easy to find the bit where it calls the subprocess to start the external player. Just hack a line in there with whatever string you want.
But it's not that, there's plenty of people using that mechanism fine. You still haven't mentioned what delays you are using etc. If you can get xbmc to release the device, then (assuming you transposed the command line arguments correctly) - the player will start.
But might as well yes do a full debug log again too
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - nick w - 2014-04-14
Bossanova and NickR.
I think i owe you both a beer.
I saw your post about passthrough and realised i hadnt changed it to true...
Tried that and it didnt work.
So i copied Bossanovas audio out details...
Changed to my card details and it worked... But i had odd noises when navigating the menu so i changed:
<streamsilence default="true">0</streamsilence>
TO
<streamsilence default="true">1</streamsilence>
And now i am up and running. Looking at now rolling out to the 5 xbmc installs in the house!
Thanks chaps, thanks so much! brill plugin Bossanova!
<audiooutput>
<ac3passthrough default="true">true</ac3passthrough>
<ac3transcode default="true">false</ac3transcode>
<audiodevice default="true">ALSA:hdmi:CARD=HDMI,DEV=0</audiodevice>
<channels default="true">1</channels>
<config default="true">2</config>
<dtshdpassthrough default="true">false</dtshdpassthrough>
<dtspassthrough default="true">false</dtspassthrough>
<eac3passthrough default="true">false</eac3passthrough>
<guisoundmode default="true">1</guisoundmode>
<normalizelevels>false</normalizelevels>
<passthrough default="true">false</passthrough>
<passthroughdevice default="true">ALSA:hdmi:CARD=HDMI,DEV=0</passthroughdevice>

RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - nick w - 2014-04-14
RIGHT
I have it now working.
But the sacrifice is gui sounds...
StreamSilence needs to be 0 otherwise the app doesnt work
<streamsilence default="true">0</streamsilence>
Changing it to
<streamsilence default="true">1</streamsilence>
Gives me GUI navigational sounds but the plugin fails to connect to a player....
Is there a way to get GUI sounds to work with the plugin?
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - nickr - 2014-04-14
Wouldn't have a clue. I hate GUI sounds and the first thing I ever do on an xbmc install is switch it off!

Haha
I am now heading that way. Using Yatse it has a small noise when navigating.
Thanks for your help Nick...
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-15
Well, that was epic. Glad you got there.
Gui sounds are always a bugger, as is stream silence - and they're really not necessary for most. That's why it's in the wiki to turn all that sh*t off.
Anyway, happy squeezing...

Hi guys, i have read all of yours posts, i tried everything you tried and i have always the same problem on my pi, both on raspbmc and openelec: "couldn't connect to player". I don't understand. On my pc with openelec gotham nightly build it works but not on my pi. I precise i don't use the two xbmcs at the same time.
Here is my config:
pi with raspbmc gotham release
philips tv
onkyo hdmi receiver.
My LMS is on a PC on my local network, and i use Ipeng on Ipad in my kitchen
Here is my log

Thanks for your help.

Have you checked your guisettings.XML.. Look at my settings above. GUI sounds much be turned off. It sounds like the same issue as I had.
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-16
The problem on the Pi is usually the lack of also and/or the sound driver thingies (see wiki) - I retired my Pi a while ago, just too wimpy, so I am not that up on the current state of things.
Your log is not a debug log, as well.
Have you tried running squeezelite from the command line to see what you get? Should be your first port of call really.
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - xpress92 - 2014-04-16
I use the plug XBMC log uploader. Where can i find it the full debug log?
And no I don't test the command line. I'm going to do that immediatly... After finding the command line into the post.:-)
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-16
See the xbmc wiki about debug logs, and for squeezelite command line: http://code.google.com/p/squeezelite/
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - xpress92 - 2014-04-16
Ok. Sorry for the log, i don't read the wiki in integrality, but now, i know How to find the full log. For the command line, I've used this one "./squeezelite-l" for listing output device, but I have "no such file or directory" in return. I'm sorry, I'm a newby in Linux. Do I switch between directories before typing the command line?
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-17
Honestly, if you're not sure how to 'cd' etc, you're going to want to master the very basics first:
http://linuxcommand.org/learning_the_shell.php
Once you can run squeezelite -l we can get this going...
