Playlists not working in CVS?

Actually that's not how it works, it uses Timers instead of the
Scheduler. So, there isn't any time specifically allocated to the
animation and the only parameters that might help would be reducing the
$tcpReadMax, $tcpWriteMax, and possibly the $tcpConnectMax. What is
happening is that the HTTP connections are using most of the time between
UDP read requests, which results in the Timers being skipped.

I searched all the modules to see what used timers and I came up with
Animation, ScreenSaver, SoftPause, and scanning directories. I think that
I'm of the mind that Timers are a bit more important than HTTP
communication, so another thing that could be done is to move the call to
checkTimers to right after the UDP communications loop. Or it could be
moved to between the TCP read loop and the TCP write loop.

Robert (gr0tus)

The way it works is that various bits of code call functions in the
Animation.pm module which schedule callbacks in the future to update
the display using the scheduler.
If the scheduler doesn't get to run its tasks often enough the
animation gets all jumpy. The scheduler gets its chance to run its
if (SliMP3::Scheduler::run_tasks($schedulerTimeSlice)) {
at 272 in server.pl.
Does this help?
-dean

I haven't looked too much at the animation, how does it work? What modules
are involved, and where do the calls happen? I'll try to figure it out once
I get home and have washed my mountain of dishes, but some pointers would
help.

Ok, so what should I tweak to give the animation more time when doing HTTP

streaming?

This probably belongs on the setup_advanced page, just added today.

The tweakiness is built in. That's why I used variables instead of
hard-coded values. If someone familiar with how the server setup web page
could add the following to it then they could be tweaked while running.
$tcpReadMax - max number of TCP client sockets read per main loop
$tcpWriteMax - max number of TCP client sockets written per main loop
$tcpConnectMax - max number of connections accepted
$tcpChunkSize - bytes written to TCP client socket per pass
$schedulerTimeSlice - max time allowed in scheduler loop

Yep! That seemed to fix it... the interface is awfully slow now though... is
that as a result of the stuff preventing the player from starving? has
anyone else noticed that?

That's what it appears to be. I wonder if Robert could tweak it to

I've fixed a few things that prevented playlist from working at all.
Please throw all your playlists against the latest CVS version and
let me know if they work.

Hi Swannie,

Not sure if I missed an e-mail on this or something, but playlists seem to be
broken. I'm on the latest CVS as of today (Tuesday). Anytime I go into a
playlist to view it's contents, it just says "Empty". I get no error
messages on the console or anything. I can play individual mp3's just fine.
Let me know what other info I van give you to help...
/mnt/mp3/Rock/Boston - Boston/Boston - Boston - 01 - More Than A Feeling.mp3
/mnt/mp3/Rock/Boston - Boston/Boston - Boston - 02 - Peace Of Mind.mp3
/mnt/mp3/Rock/Boston - Boston/Boston - Boston - 07 - Something About You.mp3
/mnt/mp3/Rock/Bruce Hornsby/Hornsby and the Range, Bruce - That's Just Way It
Is.mp3
I even tried using the status.m3u d/led from the web interface to make sure
it wasn't something with the formating of my other play lists or something,
but no dice.

Haven't looked at this, but it's probably related to the changes that
sean made to the scanner. Sean?

As a side note, I looked at the d/led status.m3u file and
noticed that it's sometimes adding an extra / to the filename. Here's what
/mnt/mp3/Rock/38 Special/38 Special - Caught Up In You.mp3
/mnt/mp3//Rock/38 Special/Special 38 - Hold On Loosely.mp3
Notice the extra / added after /mnt/mp3 in the second one.

Hm. Wierd. Can you file a bug?

Also: I sent out an e-mail a while ago regarding playing shoutcast streams,
and that they're broke with the new progress bar. Did anyone get a chance to
look at that? I can resend the e-mail if necessary.

I think I fixed one a while back. Is it still broken?

/mnt/mp3/Rock/Boston - Boston/Boston - Boston - 02 - Peace Of Mind.mp3
/mnt/mp3/Rock/Boston - Boston/Boston - Boston - 07 - Something About You.mp3

CVS?</title></head><body>
<div>Hi Swannie,</div>
<div><br></div>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>Not sure if I missed an e-mail on this or
something, but playlists seem to be </blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>broken.  I'm on the latest CVS as of
today (Tuesday).  Anytime I go into a <br>
playlist to view it's contents, it just says "Empty". 
I get no error <br>
messages on the console or anything.  I can play individual mp3's
just fine.  <br>
Let me know what other info I van give you to help...  <br>
<br>
Here's what part of my playlists looks like:<br>
/mnt/mp3/Rock/Boston - Boston/Boston - Boston - 01 - More Than A
Feeling.mp3<br>
/mnt/mp3/Rock/Boston - Boston/Boston - Boston - 02 - Peace Of
Mind.mp3<br>
/mnt/mp3/Rock/Boston - Boston/Boston - Boston - 07 - Something About
You.mp3<br>
/mnt/mp3/Rock/Bruce Hornsby/Hornsby and the Range, Bruce - That's Just
Way It <br>
Is.mp3<br>
<br>
I even tried using the status.m3u d/led from the web interface to make
sure <br>
it wasn't something with the formating of my other play lists or
something, <br>
but no dice.  </blockquote>

<div>Haven't looked at this, but it's probably related to the changes
that sean made to the scanner.  Sean?</div>
<div><br></div>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>As a side note, I looked at the d/led
status.m3u file and <br>
noticed that it's sometimes adding an extra / to the filename. 
Here's what <br>
mine looks like:<br>
<br>
/mnt/mp3/Rock/38 Special/38 Special - Caught Up In You.mp3<br>
/mnt/mp3//Rock/38 Special/Special 38 - Hold On Loosely.mp3<br>
<br>
Notice the extra / added after /mnt/mp3 in the second one.

Hm.  Wierd.  Can you file a bug?<br>
</div>
<blockquote type="cite" cite><br>
Also: I sent out an e-mail a while ago regarding playing shoutcast
streams, <br>
and that they're broke with the new progress bar.  Did anyone get
a chance to <br>
look at that?  I can resend the e-mail if necessary.</blockquote>

<div>I think I fixed one a while back.  Is it still broken?</div>
