I am on 3.2.3. But I am using analogue audio out into an amp rather than hdmi audio. I haven't actually checked hdmi out on that setup in a while.

But it sounds like this is kinda common with OE - and the solution is to hardcode your EDID apparently:

....I'd go check how to do that over at OE.

Logitech Media Server is designed and released by Logitech (They bought it from Slimdevices who called it slimserver then squeezeserver). It is designed to serve music up to Logitech (formerly Slim Devices) squeezebox hardware. However the protocol is open and the source of the server is open, so there are software implementations of the squeezebox hardware. One software implementation is squeezeslave, one is squeezelite.

Squeezeboxes (hardware or software) are controllable over a network, or in the hardware case by a IR remote control. They can be synchronised so that all (or some) play in time.

Xsqueeze allows you to do two things: (1) control other squeezeboxes in your house over the XBMC interface, and (2) make your XBMC machine emulate a squeezebox by using either squeezelite or squeezslave as a software squeezebox. This is of course controllable by function (1), the same as the other squeezeboxes in your house.

Unless your wifi boxes identified above implement the squeeze protocol, they are useless with this ecosystem.

Hey nickr

Ok let my make sure I a reading this correctly, squeezslave and squeezelite will not work on my system unless I am using it as a controller or as an item being controlled by another squeezebox .
Now can i stream music from my ATV to a network music player without xsqeeze

nickr · 2013-11-07, 02:53

squeezeslave and squeezelite play back on the system they are installed on.

In XBMC gotham you shuold be able to play to any DLNA device (context|play using.)

I got frodo , i think i may be out of luck

Start a new thread and tell us what exactly you are trying to achieve.

Hi,

at first my positive feedback. Your plugin is great. I am using it with my Intel NUC (i3)and it plays everything (squeezelite). HD Audio 96/24 or DTS is no problem. Perfect!!!

Now the negative....
I use it with squeezelite as a player. The NUC is connected via HDMI over a Denon receiver. If I use XSqueeze it plays everything (see comment above). But if I exit the player I hear no sound for video. Under settings the connection for passtrue is deselected for the HDMI interface I use with the denon. Only the not used second hdmi output is showing. A rebot and selecting the hdmi 0 resolve the problem until I start the XSqueeze again.

It looks like the hdmi output one is blocked with XSqueeze. I configure additional options in the plugin to use hdmi 1. I start squeezelite from ssh with -l to take a look with interface are available (hdmi:CARD=PCH,DEV=0) and put this string with -o in the additional options for squeezelite. (-o hdmi:CARD=PCH,DEV=0).

I use openelec latest version (3.2.3)

Do I something wrong? Thanks for your help.

Edit: Read the thread and see that other people having the same problem. So I am not to stupid...:-) (or not alone...:-)

**bossanova808** · 2013-11-22, 12:47

You should have also read the solution apparently is to hardcode your EDID (apparently). See post immediately above yours

Mr. Floppy · 2013-11-22, 12:59

Hi,

I see that with hardcode the EDID. But is there a how-to to do it? Any idea?

**bossanova808** · 2013-11-22, 13:17

Best to ask at the OE forums I think.

Great addon. Sorry if this has been asked before;

Mine seems to be up and playing fine, but I have an issue with the controls, I can't see them Tongue

. If I hold the keyboard arrow key (right or left) down or hold the remote direction I get flashes of the 'shuffle' and repeat icons and can select them using enter / ok. But that's it, the rest seem to be hidden / not visible. I don't know if its a skin issue, I'm running frodo 12.2 / aeon nox 4.0 on win 7 (haswell nuc). Everything else seems to work fine and I can control through apps like iPeng etc just not on the HTPC its self. Has anyone else had this problem or should I start digging up / posting logs?

Hello,

I am triying to get XSqueeze 1.0.3 running on my Pi B with OpenElec 3.2.3. LMS is running on my Synology NAS. Installed it as described, put the Icon under the Music Menu, configured the settings. I had to change the http Port to 9002. I checked that in the LMS settings, CLI Port is also OK. IP is my NAS. LMS server runs with all other Players fine. But it doesn't start. By klicking on the XSqueeze Icon I get a message thet the connection is being started. Then a second message box appears: can't connect to player.

Where could be the problem?

Thanks for your help!

haifischjunge · 2013-11-28, 23:11

is there a way to have squeezelite always running in the background to have a active target in the squeezebox server?

**bossanova808** · 2013-11-29, 03:59

@Platypus2 - does it happen with Confluence? I haven't see that here.

@DB1234 - need logs.

@haifischjunge - not related to XSqueeze. Just install squeezelite as a service on your machine, basically.
