Bugzilla – Bug 16130
TinySC won't play a stored Favorite from music service
Last modified: 2019-01-25 10:11:08 UTC
Save a Slacker or Pandora stream to TinySC > Favorites. Shows as saved, but will not Play. Note: Same saved Music Services saved to Favorites on full SBS or MySB play back fine.
I can confirm this. Also, can't delete a favorite as if I Press and hold the item until the context menu pops up, there is no option to delete (s/b: "At the bottom of the context menu, select Delete Favorite")
As a work-around. First add to a Playlist, then under the playlist options (+), select Add to Favorite
Here's the problem. A music service (i.e. Slacker, Pandora, etc) is being saved in favorites.opml as type="link" when it should be type="audio". If I change <outline URL="slacker://stations/XXXX/XXXX.mp3" icon="plugins/Slacker/html/images/icon.png" text="Tony on Slacker Radio" type="link" /> to: <outline URL="slacker://stations/XXXX/XXXX.mp3" icon="plugins/Slacker/html/images/icon.png" text="Tony on Slacker Radio" type="audio" /> the station will play.
btw, this is on squeezebox server 7.5.1 as well as on TinySC
Ben, This is an old bug, with a very simple fix (I just found the fix today) All that needs to be done for a Music Service is to change type="link" to type="audio" This bug came about with 7.5. https://bugs-archive.lyrion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16130 Tony
Tony - do you see the same issue with the regular SBS 7.5.x?
scratch my last question...
(In reply to comment #7) > scratch my last question... Michael, not sure if this is a related or separate bug, but with 7.5.1 if I navigate to a music service and hit add (+) and select Playy Next (or add to end), and then go to the Playlist and highlight the music service (i.e. Slacker) and press add (+), a blank window pops up (used to be able to select options such as 'remove from playlist).
Ben you mentioned you fixed this issue?
Sorry, I have no recollection at all of this bug. The one comment I put in here is also bizarre, appearing to just be a cut/paste of what was maybe a direct email to me from Tony?

Bug is still there, but different than with 7.5.1 With 7.6.1: If I: 1) navigate to a music steam from Slacker and hit add (+) and select Play Next 2) go to the Playlist and highlight the music stream just added 3) press add (+) 4) Now a window pop's up with the message "Cannot request Non-HTTP-URL" So, no way to just remove the Stream (i.e. a Slacker Station) from the playlist, must clear the playlist. Tony
But note that the original bug was fixed (playing a stored Favorite from music service)
As far as the original basic bug it is still not working. Slacker = does play but no art Pandora = does not play at all (error: unable to play next track, press Play) but it still won't play.
TinySC will not be updated any more.
