Bugzilla – Bug 17493
cannot access playlist information when using stream.mp3 client
Last modified: 2011-08-26 09:32:21 UTC
Created attachment 7419 [details] screenshot OSX With Settings -> Interface -> Additional Playlist Buttons enabled, and with the web GUI displaying information for my Chumby, I cannot access information about my playlists, either per-playlist or for songs within a playlist. See #17492 for what it should look like.
could you please post the server.log file from around the time when this happens?
There's nothing logged. I should have mentioned that, though. I'll get the hang of this one day.
Works for me: http://gyazo.com/53080cd2956eb8367ede934684f10375.png Could you please give me step-by-step instructions what you'd be clicking to get there? And could you please try with the latest r33212 or later? Thanks!
Same with r33214. Here's what I do: Home -> Playlists. Hover over a playlist. Click the "M" (More) icon. Or: Home -> Playlists -> Open a playlist. Hover over a song. Click "M". It's all Erland's fault. He showed me how to get the Additional Playlist Buttons back again.
Thanks. Now I can see some odd behaviour. I would not get an empty frame, but an empty menu. http://gyazo.com/80a14676e379ba2945dbf3ec222ab7fd.png Is your screenshot accurate?
You cropped the player info in that .png -- that is what I see when SBS is talking to a real player: enhancement 17491. I braced myself and tried IE as well. Here's XP/Opera: http://www.xenopsyche.com/ip/tmp/np1.jpg And XP/IE8: http://www.xenopsyche.com/ip/tmp/np2.jpg Does that tell you anything useful? (apart from IE sucks)
Ian - I'm not sure why I'm seeing something else. Alan - I think this issue is one more of those occurences where XMLBrowser wouldn't return any element at all, not even an "Empty list" item. Unfortunately in this case the HTML template fails rendering. Most other browse items (Albums, artists, genres...) have at least a favorites item in that menu. The UX imho is slightly broken with it too, but it doesn't fail to show a valid menu. But for the playlists, that menu item is missing too. In PlaylistInfo it's set to menuMode = 1 only. It would be easy to add another handler in the plugin menu though. What do you think?
Ian - please tell me how accessing the playlist in this case is different from bug 17491. I do indeed see that latter. But I do so following your instructions in this bug here...
If SBS is talking to a real player, I get an empty menu, breadcrumbs OK, just no useful information, as described in 17491. If SBS is talking to a stream.mp3 client, I get an empty frame (or an error if I'm using IE). That's the problem here. I'm doing exactly the same sequence of mouse movements/clicks in both cases, but getting different results depending on whether the player is real or stream.mp3. Michael, you're working very hard again today. Thank you.
Oh, the stream.mp3 issue - I see it for all information menus actually.
The root cause is an invalid URI being constructed in various places: clixmlbrowser/clicmd= ... Should probably be clixmlbrowser/?clicmd= ...
