Your solution is great. I hadn't seen your Edit, and only recall the "But, perhaps...". Thx.

That's not a bug per se - it's intentional. There is no way I'm going to support the multitude of track formats the web UI supports. However, I guess I could check if TRACKNUM is in the format, and use, otherwise don't. Currently disc number is not used, so probably need to support that too (again by checking if its used).

Just wondering if this has been implemented yet. I thought it was in the 0.1.0 but it isn't working for me.

It is in 0.1.0, and I've just confirmed it is working.

OK. How should I test it? I only have "title" selected and I see a track number.

I now see that track numbers do not appear in the "Now playing" screen and the "Queue" but they do appear in the "Browsing" screen. Is that intentional?

That's what I'm testing with. When Server Settings / Interface / Title Format is set to just TITLE - then when adding a LMS track to the queue, no track number is shown.

I'm running Material 0.1.0 against a couple of SB Classics that have their volume controls fixed at 100% in LMS.

(I control the volume via my stereo using the IRBlaster plugin that issues Volume up/down infrared to stereo when LMS receives Volume up/down commands)

Under Material this works fine in the Manage Players dialog screen. The volume bar sits at 100%, but I can still volume up/down and the commands go through to LMS (and therefore IR blaster)

On the Volume Pop-over (?) dialog screen, the volume bar sits at 100%, I an do a volume down and it goes through to LMS, but the volume ups don't appear to work. Maybe there's slightly different volume up handling code in there than your Manage Player dialog, but it's as if the Volume Up is not being issued if volume is at 100%.

Is it possible to change these so it's the same as volume handling on Manager Players?

Thanks.

I was looking in the "Browsing" screen. Would you still expect to see track numbers there? I see now that they aren't shown in the Queue.

Yes, I would. They are the track numbers of the album.

Sorry, what? (Its late at night here - so perhaps I'm being a bit thick...) Material shows the volume as 100%, but you want it to then also do a volume up? That makes no sense. I see that there is a bug in the manager players dialog, where it is checking the wrong setting - so sending the volume up where it should not.

Basically, if I'm understanding correct - you want volume up to be send even if volume is 100% Do ANY other controllers allow this? This seems like an invalid scenario.

[Edit] I've now fixed the bug in the manage players dialog (for the next release). But, this is the opposite of what you want. I can change it so that volume is sent past 100%, but not sure this is really a valid scenario.

Yep - does sound a bit mixed up, but when a Classic's volume is set fixed at 100% you normally control the volume via the stereo it's plugged into. If you send the Classic which has it's volume fixed at 100% a volume up or down command the actual volume from the Classic doesn't change, but we can intercept the LMS command to trigger an external infrared command via the IR Blaster plugin to change the stereo volume.

The default Logitech player web-interface always sends a Volume-up command even when the Classic volume is set at 100% - but the web display always shows the volume bar full to 100%.

So, as per your Edit - I need a volume up command to be issued, even when we're at 100%. Probably don't want to change the % that is displayed (it will probably return to 100% anyway next time you retrieve the current volume from the player - it does this if I turn the volume down via Material, the displayed volume % will drop, but after 0.5 seconds it will return to being displayed as 100% as I assume it gets refreshed/retrieve from the player's current volume setting.)

Thanks.

Thanks!

Just adding my name to the list of folks who appreciate all the work you have done on this. It looks great, and I eagerly await updates, THANKS!

See the "getexternalvolumeinfo" CLI command.
Essentially what this means is that even though some players have a volume fixed to 100%, incremental volume commands still work on them
You won't know that's player's real volume in this case.

It might be a MAI issue. I do have some code there trying to figure out
whether the controller application can handle web links or not. This
might be failing here. I'll look into this.
