Announce: Spicefly SugarCube Version 2.03 – (Automatic MusicIP DJ) for 7.x

[Blisteringblue]

A slightly odd issue but is this a known one?

Sugarcube is working fine, but I tried it for the first time with my boom and receiver sync'd and the seed track plays fine, but when any subsequent tracks play they are not in sync? It is only slight but it is there?

If I stop and start the boom they come back on in sync but are out again when the next track starts?

However if I add a full album and leave that to play through it remains in sync?

Receiver is wired and Boom is Wireless ?

Any ideas?

Does the Dynamic Playlist integration no longer work?
It keeps only repeating the same track over and over again for me.
I'd prefer it because that way I can also introduce single tracks from Spotify et al.

I've posted something regarding this (coupled with another issue) on the sugar cube forums. Will let you know if
I hear anything back. Cheers

How long does it normally take to get your username and password?

I got the email saying thanks for the payment and a link to get the install for v3.02. However nothing in that email shows a username or password. It seems I need version 3.50 or later to work with squeezebox version 7.6.1

I have wanted to try this for years but not done anything about it .

I may be dense most of this seems "obvious" to all that is already using MIP and sugarcube .

So I having a hard time to find step by step instructions on how to make this go .

I have a headless (no gui ) linux server CC4.2 OS (rhel 4.4 sort of) perl 5.8.8 .

what do I need to install and how ? how do I set it up afterwards .

Installing the plugin was no harder than ticking a box in the repo...

But the rest ?? :-/

How do you donate to cparker btw

[Mnyb]

Found how to donate, picked a sum in the middle of the field...

OK install MIP or GenPUID ??

What works on a server without GUI .

Can I install the regular MIP anyway and control it solely trough it's web-UI

[Wirrunna]

Mnyb,
I run the regular MIP and control it through the console. It is essential to start MIP before Squeezebox Server (SB) so that SB can recognize that MIP is running.
MIP has to analyze your music, I "archive" the analysis and MIP writes 2 tags, ANALYSIS and FINGERPRINT.
Lots of good info in the Spicefly site - for example http://spicefly.com/squeezeboxmip/51...ueezebox-.html
