RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-24
Yeah it generally works fine on every platform, certainly including ubuntu, OE, windows and OSX.
@David1977 - no 'funny' characters going in your user dir (I can't see any in that path) - but xbmc has issues with things like umlauts in paths traditionally so it's always better to use just traditional ascii chars in usernames etc.

Creating the directory manually did the trick
Thanks for this. *thumbs up*
I installed the XSqueeze plugin on my OE HTPC too (Beta 3.95.6). Works fine..synchronize perfect with my windows machine...but there isn´t any sound out of OE connected via HDMI to my PreAmp. I can see it is synchronized, because they playback the same track within the same progress in seconds.
I followed the wiki and turn off GUI sounds and the "keep audio device alive" function. But still no luck.
I use "squeezeslave" on both machines with no extra arguments. I can´t see, that my amp reacts in any way. So maybe the hdmi is the wrong output? Do I have to select an analog out for this...maybe connect an analog cable like this:

Or is it possible to take the hdmi out?
Here is the logfile from my OE machine with debug log enabled:

Thanks in advance

Tried it with the analog out from my htpc and it didn´t work....fyi
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-24
You will need to specify the output in xsqueeze settings ... See last few pages of this thread for tips (and xsqueeze wiki).
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - DaVu - 2014-04-24
ok....I tried that
This is my aplay -l:
http://sprunge.us/VJSb
This is my aplay -L:
http://sprunge.us/Rifh
In the audio settings from XBMC, the audio is set to "RTL ROTEL AVR on HDMI #2". If I take a look at the aplays, then it should be card=0 device=8. So the command from the wiki should be:
squeezeslave-i64 -o08 -D "serverIP"
Player starts, but with no sound.
Is the command correct?

Disable navigation sounds.

@nickw:
Thanks but....

already done
I looked at the arguments and found, that I can show up a list with available sound devices...
squeezeslave -L:
http://sprunge.us/dOic
So I´m right with the 0,8. Also tried with a "," between the numbers:
squeezeslace -o0,8 -D "serverIP"
still doesn´t work
Re: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - nickr - 2014-04-24
-o 2
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - DaVu - 2014-04-25
Hey....perfect!!!
That works
Thank you very much. Maybe...and please don't get me wrong, maybe I misunderstood something...but the wiki should be updated if bossanova will find the time
I'm not mocking...so please I apollogize if it sounds like it
Nick...got a +1 for it
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-25
Its a wiki. If it needs improving.... Improve it. Kinda the point.
I write a massive add on, spend 75 pages supporting it and nick gets a +1 for three characters!!! That's the indisputable power of brevity I guess!!!
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - DaVu - 2014-04-25
you got a +1 for another point you bring me to...creating the directory manually. Therefore I gave you a + rating and thanked for it!
As I said...I´m not mocking or anything and I appreciate your absolutely hard work on this. So please apologize...I don´t want to offer a negative criticism on you.
I got this complete running and also the hint in the wiki for setting up the synchronization at the LMS server was absolutely perfekt! It works pretty fine here and I can´t heare any delay at this time between the players!
So what can I do, that you don´t get my wrong anymore.
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - nick w - 2014-04-25
And I caused 74 pages questions and issues, and a headache for Bassanova and nick and I don't get anything... Charming
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-26
I was just kidding around
(But not about the wiki - wiki = community knowledge - if you think you can improve the instructions, please do!)
I am planning on restoring some long lost functionality actually - basically, auto discovering of your LMS server, and also a dialogue to choose audio outputs rather than having to work them out manually. I had this before, but only for squeezeslave and when I added squeezelite it was a little complicated so I took it out. But I should really put it back in, it made for much easier configuration.
Sometime soon I will do that - I still have the code for the server IP and slave audio outputs, so that will be easy, just have to re-integrate and write the lite version of the audio outputs code....
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-26
Ok folks here is a version I'd like to get a few people to test before I push it out:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/108804/XBMC/script.xsqueeze.zip
....copy it over your current xsqueeze install in your addons folder. If anything goes wrong, just delete this whole script dir and you can re-install from my repo as per normal.
This is a bigger update - it features two new things as mentioned above:
1. Auto discover your LMS server on your network and grab its IP - hey, it's easier than typing!!
and
2. A chooser in settings listing audio outputs (separate for squeezeslave and squeezelite - just use whichever you need!). This should make the audio output bit a LOT easier.
Basically, install this, then go into settings and re-configure things, using these auto discovers, and let me know if they work or not.
YOU will need to remove your audio output string
Note - I think these should new auto discovery things work ok on Windows, Linux, Pi etc, but probably NOT Mac OSX (becaus xbmc/python/mac osx is a bit sh*t in my experience).
If they *don't* work - FULL DEBUG LOG please!! There's a good chance the audio output discovery stuff may not work on unix the same way as windows (squeezeslave will be ok, lite I am not so sure?)
Even with these new discoverers, you CAN still specify your outputs manually as you were...but don't specify them in both spots of course!!
RE: [RELEASE]XSqueeze - Squeezebox player, music chooser and visualiser for XBMC - bossanova808 - 2014-04-26
(Note I have tried it out on Openelec (not Pi, just normal) and Windows and it's working well.
