[Announce] Radio Paradise Lossless Streaming (Plugin v2)

Track change would grab a new set of track information, and a new audio
segment. It therefore is in synch again. But I guess that at the next
track it would miss the update again?

Background: RP isn't really track based. But I'd get an audio segment
(flac file) covering several tracks, plus metadata. As from a player's
point of view it's playing a single track of a given length (often 15-20
minutes), the plugin has to take care of updating metadata. It's working
quite nicely for me and many just setting a timer for the length of a
track. But for whatever reason this does not work for your. Maybe I'll
add some fallback mechanism, triggering an update every x seconds
anyway. That's unfortunate, but if I can't get it to work otherwise...

Please uninstall the Spotify plugin. But that's likely unrelated.

Then head over to Settings/Advanced/Logging, scroll down to
plugin.radioparadise and set it to DEBUG.

I think Jackisadore has the same or similar issue with OSX. I also wonder how many people just have not noticed if they have issue or not.

I was wondering: My log is flooded with getMetadataFor 5 or 6 times per second. Is this by design? Maybe Jive clients ignore requests if the frequency is to high or a buffer overflows..

Also noticed if the Jive clients are in sync and I stop RP playback the log is quiet. If they are out of sync and I stop RP playback the logs keeps showing getMetadataFor (maybe every 5 sec)

....... I also wonder how many people just have not noticed if they have issue or not.

Ok, I just tested again in order to make sure.

The artwork is changing fine on my system and I see no problem.
I had Radio Paradise playing on my Duet, and the artwork changed almost simultaneously on iPeng, Orange Squeeze, the duet receiver and on a connected RPi with pCP3.22 and Jivelite.
LMS is located on another RPi (pCP3.22).

Seems to me that users of LMS on pCP don't see the the issue but I have no idea why.

I am running LMS via my Synology NAS and it is working fine for me.

I would only get these often if I were using the web UI (which is
polling continously). Some mobile apps might be doing the same (eg.
Logitech's own :-)).

If you want to track down the problem, then you should try to eliminate
any unrelated clients, players, controllers.

There are various different statements being logged from that method.
Would be interesting to know which ones you see.

Getmetadatafor (150). It’s flooding the log without any webclient open only jive clients like touch jivelite controller.
