Sorry, I was out of town for a few days. I created the playercorefactory.xml, and I'm still getting errors. Log:

http://pastebin.com/PS47BinW

Code:

08:45:42 T:3888 M:2339180544   DEBUG: CPlayerSelectionRule::GetPlayers: considering rule: streams
08:45:42 T:3888 M:2339180544   DEBUG: CPlayerSelectionRule::GetPlayers: matches rule: streams

if you have placed the correct stuff in playercorefactory.xml and placed playercorefactory.xml in the right place the log should contain something like the above for a rule called 'subsonic' (assuming that's what you called it in playercorefactory.xml) rather than 'streams'

my guess is you've not put it in the right directory or called it the wrong name or the contents are not correct as your xbmc appears not to be checking for the subsonic rule.

can you post your playercorefactory.xml file and tell me what directory you have put it in?

thanks,

I'm an idiot, I put it in

C:\Users\aaron\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\

instead of

C:\Users\aaron\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\

It's working now that I put it in the right place. Thanks!

One odd thing I noticed, if I go to the status page of Subsonic it shows three concurrent downloads of the file I'm playing. Everything works correctly, but I thought that was strange.

excellent! glad you got it working ok

i might try and automate adding that rule if it doesn't exist

One odd thing I noticed, if I go to the status page of Subsonic it shows three concurrent downloads of the file I'm playing. Everything works correctly, but I thought that was strange.

i think xbmc starts to get the file at least twice - once to work out the mime type and then to a second time to actually download the file.

someone who knows more about xbmc internals might have more of an idea.

thanks,

This is a great add-on. I'm going to be setting up a new XBMC box for a friend, and having my entire music library built right in (and always up to date) without needing any storage is going to blow him away.

[t0mm0]

Just set up my friends system to access my server at home, plays fine except playlists, i'm getting an error:

http://pastebin.com/wR2E4kwr

just pushed out 0.2.1 to the repo which should fix the problem. it was a silly mistake :o

i love subsonic - it's a great way to share music collections and also i never have to sync music to my android phone - it's like magic that you can play anything from your entire collection wherever you are!

if you have any feature suggestions feel free to let me know and i'll see what i can do.

Awesome, great to see this plugin developing nicely.

I get this in my error log when clicking the Music icon:

oooops, this particular error is caused by a silly cut and paste mistake but i don't think it would cause the rest of the errors.

to be sure could you make a small change to [addon_dir]/plugin.audio.subsonic/resources/lib/Subsonic/Addon.py

just change the line second from bottom from

Code:

addon = xbmcaddon.Addon(id='plugin.video.subsonic')

to

Code:

addon = xbmcaddon.Addon(id='plugin.audio.subsonic')

i assume that will still fail though.

can you please post a debug log? (do a search and replace on your password before posting if it is sensitive)

thanks,

I tried installing the plug-in and it says "script failed" every time I try to run it. Strangely enough the repository zip file I downloaded says version 1.0.3 but when I install the plugin from the Zip file and select Subsonic from the plug-in menu to install the plugin it says version 0.2.1 which I presume is the incorrect xbox version.

How do I go about installing the correct version, or is there a mistake with incorrect zip files stored on Github?

Sounds like you have the right versions. 1.0.3 is the repo installer version. 0.2.1 is the latest version of the addon.

Post a debug log ifyou are still having trouble.

Will do, could my firewall be blocking the script from running correctly, I have a subsonic server running on the same machine and I tried entering both my Subsonic IP address and URL in the plugin settings.

no way of telling without a debug log.....

if it's on the same machine why not use localhost:port as the address?

Thanks for your work on this Add-on!

I just installed your add-on last night for the first time. I was able to get past a previous "script failed" error by making the changes mentioned in post 37. Demo now works fine but with my server address & credentials, I get: "Subsonic Error. Error reading response from server". I tried entering the ip of my server, hostname as well as xxx.subsonic.org and got the same error.
I am able to access the subsonic server from a browser on both my Mac and PC.

It's my first time pasting a log fromXBMC. Let me know if I missed anything or if you need more info.

I am running Dharma (latest release) on ATV2.
The Subsonic server is 4.0.1, running on an Intel Mac Mini. This is NOT the latest version of Subsonic. (Could this be the cause?). The most recent Subsomic (4.3?) causes a Java error and won't run for me.

Did you make the change mentioned in the post just before yours -#37? That fixed the script error for me.

I'll give it a try - cheers

thanks for the detailed bug report - it's hard trying to debug something when you can't see it

you are correct - the problem is the version of subsonic (i should really try and return a better error message). 4.3.1 is required due to api changes.

well actually i am only using features of the api up to 4.2 so if you can run that one you could try changing line 30 of [addon_dir]/resources/lib/Subsonic/Subsonic.py

from

Code:

self.api_version = '1.5.0'

to

Code:

self.api_version = '1.4.0'

it would be possible to support older versions but would mean rewriting a fair amount of the plugin. i may actually do that at some point as it's a bit of a mess and could do with a tidy up. not promising anything any time soon though i'm afraid

i assume you've tried asking on the subsonic forums about the java problem?

sorry about that
