Description Alan Young 2009-11-19 22:48:02 UTC
When a player is connected to an SbS instance that does not have the necessary plugins installed and enabled to play a particular service, one can still navigate the menus of that service but cannot play.

There needs to be an auto-switch mechanism so that the player (and its sync-group) are switched to mySB either upon play (best), or (fallback option) upon browse of the service.

Add '_index' parameter to 'playlist playtracks; command so that one can load a list of tracks and start playing at an arbitrary track in a single CLI command.

Fixed bug 15150: My Apps not supported via SbS should switch player to mySB 

Add 'SN' plugin to auto-switch players to SN (mySB) when attempting to play a track that cannot be played by the current server but which can be played by SN. The switch only happens when attempting to play the track, not when it is added to the playlist. The full sync-group will be moved if necessary. As much as possible of the current playlist is copied to SN, not just the one track that initiated the switch. Odd things are likely to happen with mixed local/remote, shuffled playlists.

Install the plugin in TinySC and not on SN itself.
No longer install RhapsodyDirect plugin in TinySC.

Currently has fixed list of SN-supported protocols; needs to get this dynamically.

Might be nice to get track metadata for tracks being hosted by this plugin while they are in the SbS playlist.
