Squeezeplayer: Crash when Internet radio is playing

[PaulWebster]

Seen crashes when Internet radio is playing - suspicion is that this is because there is no Album information present.

[elParaguayo]

I've had some issues with the screen too. Will take a look.

Can you post the error message here too. Thanks.

[elParaguayo]

Thank you. I'll fix this when I get the chance.

[elParaguayo]

Have a look at this branch and see if it works for you: https://github.com/elParaguayo/RPi-InfoScreen-Kivy/compare/squeeze_bugfixes

[PaulWebster]

Looks like there is still a problem

[elParaguayo]

That's weird. The error is showing text: root.cur_track["album"] but the updated code (in the squeeze_bugfixes branch) has text: root.album_name.

Have you definitely pulled down the right branch?

[PaulWebster]

You are right - and very strange.
I included the output from "git branch" at the top of my previous post to show that it was the selected one. I just checked the .kv file and saw that the album definition did not have the change as above - so I deleted it all and started from scratch with a clone of just that branch. I could then see the commented out line and the replacement.
It now loads up OK.

It does have some issues though - for example
[ERROR ] [Image ] Error reading file /sq_volume.png
[ERROR ] [Image ] Error reading file /sq_next.png
[ERROR ] [Image ] Error reading file /sq_stop.png
[ERROR ] [Image ] Error reading file /sq_play.png
[ERROR ] [Image ] Error reading file /sq_previous.png

which means that the icons for controlling the player do not display. Should they have a /icons in front of them?

Also had this when a track was playing
[ERROR ] [Loader ] Failed to load image http://www.mysqueezebox.com/public/imageproxy?h=50&u=plugins%2FTuneIn%2Fhtml%2Fimages%2Ficon.png&w=50

and the volume slider was not representing what the volume was really set to.
When I changed the volume using a mobile phone app the volume jumped up and then went back down to 0 on the Kivy application.

[elParaguayo]

I do apologise. This is proving quite painful, isn't it?!

I've seen the image error before, will fix that.

The volume one is interesting, let me check that. I've recently upgraded my server and had seen my volume at nil too. I wonder if they changed the protocol slightly.

Pretty sure I know what the image issue is too. I think I need to change the default method for non-local media.

I'll open these as separate issues.

[elParaguayo]

Closing this thread as the original issue has been fixed.
