Ahh, thanks Paul, I didn't realise that setting (to show date) was there.

Just a thought, would it be possible to append the date to the track title rather than the album title - that way MAI would still recover the album review?...

[staresy]

Interesting, is/should that be displayed via material skin somewhere?

I was just listening to JG and for the Charlie Rouse track above all that was displayed was title, album, artist. No date info....

[staresy]

Yes, me too, except I don't see year, where is that displayed?...

[staresy]

Thanks for looking Paul. Their web page is still reporting that they have problems so maybe they are running in disaster recovery mode, with limited functionality.

Let's see it it resolves over the coming days.

[staresy]

Yes, and it seems that there is only one coding format available (128kbps CBR), also the volume level seems much higher.

It seems to be creaking back to life slowly, it must have been quite a serious outage at their end.

Another thing I notice the meta data seems to return...

[staresy]

Ah, OK, will sit tight for a while and see it it returns, thanks for looking.

[Edit] Normal service now resumed, sometimes the best advice is to do nothing, obviously a problem at their end....

Paul,
I quite often listen to The Jazz Groove via your RNP plugin. Yesterday they had some issue and the feed wasn't working (no audio/intermittent audio). The audio is back today but there is no album art/meta data.

Could you take a look to see if something has changed. BTW this...

Thanks Greg,
That's fixed it, thanks for your quick help as usual....

Hi Greg,
Did you ever get a chance to look into this?

Hi Greg,
I have a found a minor issue when using the Visual Statistics plugin with material skin via Squeezelite-X, detalis here:

https://forums.slimdevices.com/forum...13#post1626113

It seems to be SLX related, I wonder if you could take a look?

Thanks

[staresy]

Thanks to you (and your friend) for testing and confirming. I'll post a note on the Squeezelite-X thread referring back to this post and see if Greg can shed any light on it....

[staresy]

I've noticed that sometimes the visual statistics plugin won't display stats, instead it shows a red X next to the stat to be displayed.




This only seems to happen when running with material skin via squeezelite-X. Using material skin via a web browser, VS works fine....

A minor observation, I notice that (for example on classic FM), the track artwork is displayed, but after a while it times out and drops back to the station artwork (in this case a picture of the presenter). Is there anyway of holding the album artwork for the duration of the track or is that beyond...

[staresy]

Is there anyway to access/control this plugin via material skin?

[staresy]

Stuart, even better news, whatever you've tinkered with, it now works, including the station logos. Good work....

[staresy]

Ok, rolled back to the standard version. The radio channels now play OK and display a now playing logo (ie. not the radio mast). However, as you suspected, in the radio channel list no station logo is displayed, just a blank CD logo.

I'm sure it used to display the station logos on the...
