Description melsbree 2012-03-29 11:52:07 UTC
I have been using a Squeezebox Classic for the last couple of years, and it's terrific. Just the other day the Live Music Archive Application seemed to stop being able to find any artists or other data. I am wondering if others have experienced the same issue and/or have any thoughts as to why I am not getting content from LMA any longer through the Squeezebox

I got the following response from the good folks at the Live Music Archive. If this is indeed the issue, what do I need to do to reconfigure the Squeezebox to locate this changed domain??

Any thoughts/experience with this??? Thanks!

From Live Music Archive:

"We switched our domain from www.archive.org to archive.org. If that application is looking for the www that could explain it."

Could we please fix this simple problem ?
( nudge nudge )
Comment 5 Steve 2012-04-15 13:34:29 UTC
How many votes does it normally take for a bug to be assigned?

They should attend to this as The Live music archive is a really good selling point for the squeezebox.
Comment 6 gwelsb 2012-06-21 13:31:47 UTC
It looks like a simple problem to fix no ?
I agree Live Music Archive is a great selling point for Squeezebox.
Hope something will be done soon.

Thanks.

I noticed this a couple of months ago, but assumed it would be fixed by now.  I tried re-installing the LMA app without success.  Now I am joining the hordes of bereft LMA junkies in their single-minded pursuit of the return of their beloved at-home concert experiences!
Comment 8 slimlogitech 2012-06-23 15:14:57 UTC
Please fix, its been a while and this is a great service for music fans. Thank you.
Comment 9 more.time 2012-07-06 14:31:56 UTC
Does not work. Please give us a glimmer of hope that Logitech cares about the customer base enough to fix this!
Comment 10 tmallin4 2012-07-08 23:51:46 UTC
I agree.  Live Music Archive is broken and returns Empty results on all searches.  No programs can be retrieved.  This app is now useless on my Squeezebox Touch devices.  Please fix!!!
Comment 11 saeyedoc 2012-07-26 12:42:51 UTC
ditto
one of the reasons I bought the Touch was archive.org support, please fix!
Comment 12 Lorraine 2012-07-30 12:22:47 UTC
I bought the Squeezebox as a gift to my Deadhead brother-in-law because of the internat archive. I also just bought it for myself. I did not know this feature wasn't working. When you look at the Logitech Squeezebox site, it advertises that you can use the internet archive on this device. Please fix it before I am ready to do my reviews of the Squeezebox on Amazon, Best Buy, Logitech, and everywhere else I can review this device.
Comment 13 slimlogitech 2012-07-31 17:06:24 UTC
Created a duplicate bug under Product: SB Server - Streaming to Server
since this one is incorrectly listed as logitechsqueezebox.com

Maybe they have just missed it because of this.

Here is the link to new BUG
https://bugs-archive.lyrion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17994

Vote again there and maybe we will see some progress with the major bug.
Comment 14 hugh-stevenson 2012-08-01 09:04:02 UTC
I'm reiterating my desire to see this issue fixed.  It WAS one of the most attractive features of the Squeezebox Radio.  Now it is the most potentially disturbing sign that Logitech is not listening to its customer base.

We need to find other squeezebox users to make them aware of this website.

Any comments from logitech , why not assigned yet 24 votes and it is an advertised function ? not some minor bug .
Comment 18 Tom Land 2012-08-30 20:31:48 UTC
Bummer that Live Music Archive is a listed Ap on Squeezebox Server, and it doesn't play anything.  That can't help the Logitech Squeezebox reputation.
Comment 19 Mikael Nyberg 2012-09-02 02:45:37 UTC
Sugestion .

You still claim Live Music Archive Functionality for the new "UE smart radio" .

Can this be backported to mysqueezebox.com ?

And now confirmed LMA is actually working on "UE smart radio" now can we please backport this to mysqueezebox.com
Comment 21 Nicola Legittimo 2012-09-15 02:12:56 UTC
I can only support this. Please fix it for the existing "non-UE" users!
Comment 22 Mikael Nyberg 2012-10-08 21:34:56 UTC
If you followed this tread onnthe forum .

http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?96265-UE-Smart-Radio-and-Live-Music-Archive-working-but-not-on-Squeezeboxes

We have a temporary workaround . For details read the tread .
(unknown if this is possible in the compiled windows version btw ,try )

In short find the Plugin.pm file for LMA

...../Slim/Plugin/LMA/Plugin.pm

 Change the line :

feed => Slim::Networking::SqueezeNetwork->url( '/api/lma/v1/opml' ),

To

feed => 'http://uesmartradio.com/api/lma/v1/opml',

Stop the server while doing it or restart it after your done .
This edit has to be redone after an upgrade .

Note this workaround does not support the UI on older players like Boom or SB3 ,music plays fine thou .

Web-UI,Touch,Radio,iPeng works as UI and probaly also the controller and SqueezePlay.

If you use vortexbox ,this is implemented in their latest update , no need to do anything .
Comment 23 Mikael Nyberg 2012-10-22 11:08:10 UTC
This is now fixed ?

Works for me now , bug can be closed now , functionality issues can be filed as new separate bugs .

Is Squeeze Network now fixed?  

Or are we considering the "temporary workaround" to change the feed to UE to be a "permanent workaround"? Which does work fine for me, btw.

But I would really prefer a permanent fix that doesn't require me to keep a "custom" plugin config lying around in case I upgrade or reinstall LMS?

M Herger fixed it officially, it works on mysb.com to (tried by Toby10 on the forum ) .

No need to do anything for anyone as the fix is on mysqueezebox.com in both cases .

However Vortexbox may have to reverse it fix.

And if someone changed the Plugin.pm file ,just reverse that change and restart LMS

Excellent!  Good news!

OTOH, I use LMA frequently, and have not had a problem since this bug was reported fixed.  I'm using it on the Squeezebox Radio, but am still on 7.7.2, so maybe the problem was un-fixed in the new release.

Hopefully, someone here with more tech savvy can sort this out for us.
Comment 30 Mikael Nyberg 2014-02-13 04:38:35 UTC
Yes it seems broken for 7.8
Comment 31 Mikael Nyberg 2014-04-24 03:30:36 UTC
And LMA is now fixed again .

LMA breaks at regular basis but is for now up again .

Comment 33 Michael Herger 2014-04-24 06:15:49 UTC
FWIW: the data we're using is no longer updated automatically. There used to be a cron job doing this every x. But as the script takes longer than 24h to finish, and often would fail to do so, it's not been run automatically for a long time. I'm looking into re-enabling it again, even if only in monthly or weekly intervals.
Comment 34 winsall 2014-04-28 22:28:44 UTC
How can this bug be marked resolved when it still doesn't work?  The LMA list is not updated.  Please get the cron job back online even if it is just once or twice a week.  Dealing with whatever causes the update to fail at times might be harder to resolve but it really is frustrating to not be able to access new artists and shows that are uploaded.  Since my Squeezebox server seems to lock up for a myriad of reasons ultimately requiring a reboot of the PC, I am often left with only internet options for music and the Live Music Archive is the best option.  Please fix it...

Comment 36 Mikael Nyberg 2014-04-29 02:47:54 UTC
Is it just the latest updates that is missing ? The plugin seems to actually work for me . Conecting from EU

Maybe it's time for an update ( running the cronjob again ) don't forget the eu server .

The latest addition list seems weird anyway it has dates into the future ? That must be an LMA issues ( are some bands trying to be at the top of that list ).

Wonder how often the cronjob can be enabled safely ? Can the mysteries crashes be that the next one starts before the previus one is finished ?

As it was done 24/4 and 25/4 I think mherger ran this manually and checked in on the job time to time to see if still was running ?
