Announce: Material Skin

[cpd73]

TRACKNUM - TITLE from ALBUM by ARTIST GENRE in YEAR RL_RATING_STARS_APPENDED

Material does not use those settings, hence they are not shown.

Then there must be some other reason Material is displaying the meta data I want(Perhaps under Material Interface display technical info

No need.

The "curl" command I posted is the raw request that Material sends - you can type that into a terminal (replace "01:02:03:04:05:06" with the real ID/MAC of your player). The "tags:cdegiloqrstuyAABIKNSTR" parameter tells LMS what meta-data to return. "R" here is for ratings - but, in my case, LMS does not return any.

If you care to look, "http://SERVER:9000/Default/html/docs/cli-api.html" details the API, and the "songinfo" section details the "tag" parameters.

When using Material with TrackStat my ratings do get set. I can see them in "Song information". Its just that, for me, LMS is not returning the ratings in the status messages. This must be a setup issue on my side, as they worked before - and still do for you. I'm just not sure where to look.

[Edit] Material, for me, shows the blank rating stars - which allows me to set a rating. It just never shows the actual values.

I'm a total numpty! I was running LMS with "--nostatistics" !!!! Removing that flag makes everything work OK. And displayed ratings change when track changes.

I hope it's okay to post a thank-you to CDrummond here. I have been using Squeezeboxes for years and just found the Material Skin and love it! That's all. Thanks mate

Sometimes a long press on the DSTM symbol doesn't bring up the DSTM selection screen. It seems to go to the next option which is repeat off. It seems to happen after cycling through the repeat options to reach DSTM, but not every time.

Edit If you long press the symbol immediately after cycling through the options it works. If you leave a gap of say 10 seconds it always fails to open the DSTM settings.

Material is a really great tool which I use each and every day! Thank you cpd73
However as I always use it, I have two questions...
1- Is it possible to see an history of what I listened to?
2- Is it possible not to see a pop up menu (image, information, display) when I click too clickly on the album image in order to increase or decrease the sound level...?
In any case I am very happy with Material skin as it is!
Thanks again!

What Was That Tune plugin shows history of what's been played, appears under "Apps".

I don't see that, have you tried clearing the cache?

Edit. I do see it in the "Album" section of MAI on my PC but not on my phone.
