Make sure that you didn't password protect the webinterface, it's not supported (yet).

I will most certainly next time RE: Squeezebox for Kodi - _Julz_ - 2017-08-18 (2017-08-09, 22:55)marcelveldt Wrote:(2017-08-09, 03:39)_Julz_ Wrote: So, it's been a while but I now ran some tests to set this up for my Wetek Play 2. Hi, it's me again I'm at home again, and took another shot. First of all, the WebIf wasn't password protected. My approache: 1. I wanted to check out if squeezelite is running properbly, so I started a putty session and ran it via terminal: Code: squeezelite -o default:CARD=AMLM8AUDIO -n SqueezeLiteLibreElec -s 192.168.2.222 Then I thought mayby your addon couldn't find squeezelite, even though there was no hint in the log, so: 2. I searched for the location of the squeezelite executable by: Code: ~ # which squeezelite Code: /storage/.kodi/addons/virtual.multimedia-tools/bin/squeezelite Log output still the same. The weird thing though, after starting squeezelite through terminal (point 1) I can control the LMS through your addon The LMS is fine, it works with Windows squeezelite clients directly started via CMD and I tested it from the HTPC in my flat via VPN and your addon. It have something to do with the Wetek/or the addon on it :/ I mean, the only thing I want is to have squeezelite running in the background, and control it by WebIf via smartphone/PC, but I just want to give you some hints to fix that to your addon. edit1: Hmm, just checked the path to the executable in the settings again, actually I didn't could parse in the path above. It's only possible to go Code: .../bin edit2: Okay found the settings.xml made my changes, but no success. Mayby you'll find your time for that, otherwise I have to get in writing own Kodi scripts to launch squeezelite on startup ^^[/color] RE: Squeezebox for Kodi - IAmLostForWords - 2017-08-21 First of all thanks for the add-on. Being new to Kodi, I was glad to realize this exists. Set up of Kodi and the addon was no issue. Kodi running on a pi3, libreElec. I installed the Multimedia Tools add on on have squeezelite running and working with system start. The add on is configured to not automatically start the client, but instead use the provided MAC for pure controlling. Starting music works fine, but unfortunately stopping does not work. Simply does not react to either the Remote (CEC) play controls, nor to the player controls as activated by the context menu, both used via remote and via mouse/keyboard. This is working, if squeezelite is directly controlled / started via the addon. PLEASE IGNORE - After system reboot, everything works as expected and the issue is not reproducible... RE: Squeezebox for Kodi - IAmLostForWords - 2017-08-22 Hi there - another question though: I have two user profiles set up. For whatever reason, when using the non-master account, starting the addon always requires that I enter the master code. I can not find a setting that will change this behaviour. Any idea? Thanks RE: Squeezebox for Kodi - extremeaudio - 2017-08-26 I am unsure how to use this. I have Libreelec running on a Amlogic S905X device. I have installed the addon and the multimedia tools, both of which installed properly. But I cant see any player. I also tried manually selecting the audio device by selecting the first of the 2 default audio devices. No luck. Then I also manually pointed it to the folder in which the squeezelite file resides. What am I missing? RE: Squeezebox for Kodi - kalastob - 2017-09-03 I also had problems getting the plugin to successfully start the 'squeezelight' server when running on a Raspberry Pi 3. Starting it manually worked, but the plugin always failed somehow to start it without any evidence in the log why it failed. Checking the arguments sent to to 'squeezelight' I can see the following in 'resources/lib/main_service.py': Code: line 205: args = [sl_binary, "-s", self.lmsserver.host, "-a", "80", "-C", "1", "-m", The argument "-C 1" is not supported, at least not on the bundled 'squeezelight' for ARM/Raspberry Pi. Removing "-C", "1" from the code enabled the plugin to start 'squeezelight' successfully. I don't know if the flag should work on other platforms, it seems to be present in the git-history all the way from the initial commit. RE: Squeezebox for Kodi - srvduplex - 2017-09-04 hi there, Thank u all for the very good thread, I managed to install and run the plugin in my PI3 /w libreelec 8 and Kodi 17. Now as I managed to start the plugin with audio set to NULL and I can see the player in my LMS, launch music but no sound out of my kodi but it won"t start set to AUTO when set to auto, I run squeezelite in the terminal and I get this error msg : [22:28:22.062902] test_open:277 playback open error: No such file or directory [22:28:22.063310] output_init_common:382 unable to open output device in my kodi config the audio is set to PI: HDMI when I start squeezelite -l i have the following output Output devices: null - Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture) default:CARD=ALSA - bcm2835 ALSA, bcm2835 ALSA - Default Audio Device sysdefault:CARD=ALSA - bcm2835 ALSA, bcm2835 ALSA - Default Audio Device of course I added this to my config.txt #audio param squeezebox dtparam audio=on Thank you for your help on this RE: Squeezebox for Kodi - srvduplex - 2017-09-05 Good morning y'all I managed to choose the audio with this option sysdefault:CARD=ALSA - bcm2835 ALSA, bcm2835 ALSA - Default Audio Device So now I have sound but only when I choose a radio.

RE: Squeezebox for Kodi - nojoe - 2017-09-08 Here on RPi3 + LibreElec 8.1.1 (multimedia-tools addon is installed) internet streams are working fine and stable. Local files stored on my Synology NAS doesn't. For 2-4sec i can see the title in Kodi, all Play buttons are activated on my Android devices with SB Player but then it stops. Without Kodi no problem to play local files! Sharing some logs later! RE: Squeezebox for Kodi - extremeaudio - 2017-11-03 (2017-08-26, 16:55)extremeaudio Wrote: I am unsure how to use this.

I am unsure how to install/ start the service. Or is it incompatible with ARM? RE: Squeezebox for Kodi - numbersix - 2017-11-04 Thanks for writing this, I've been trying it out on Kodi running on top of Ubuntu 16.04 on x64. I am getting audio output, but it's pretty quiet compared to the rest of Kodi's output, is there anything I can do to increase the volume? I have also found that randomly it can start to play multiple versions of the song at once, starting at random points which is incredibly disconcerting. It doesn't always do it though. I can try to grab some console output from Kodi to help figure it out. |
