Hab nochmal die dazu passende Webabfrage rausgekramt.

Damit man das auch nutzen kann.

Hi,

I'm talking to myself here (the best way to get some consensus )

I noticed some inconsistencies, bizarre behaviour.
A concrete example is the "text display"
This thing seems to work only once, not twice, but ... it seems to depend on the mode which it is in !

That problem seems to be (at least partially) solved.
I issue a "menu_collapse" before each "display text".
Maybe not very elegant, but it works. I'd prefer to be able to explicitely select modes, but don't know how (yet).

Also, the procedure to play a single MP3 file seems to have slightly changed with FW 1.67 (credit Taxus). One has to first enable the "extra menu" on the MusicPal, and there is an option "server" (not the media server !, just server, and fill-in the related menu, with computer name, share name, user name & password). From the MP, navigate to the server option, select one of those MP3 or WMA files which you have previously copied there, play it, save it to the fav. From then, it can be selected from the HomeServer just as any other MP fav.

The clock is still not working. Rhâ
Any hint ?

Hoi
Schon gesehen? Es gibt ein App dafür: 23.02.2010
Ampache on the iPhone – in the app store now.

Status: Glücklicher Besitzer eines HS und eines Musicpals mit installiertem Palmod und MPD.
Über Telnet kann ich über "mpc add songname.mp3" einzelne Titel zu einer Playliste zusammenfügen und dann per "mpc save durchsage1" abspeichern.
Zum verwenden der Playliste als Durchsage, müsste ich "mpc clear" und "mpc load durchsage1" eingeben und dann mit "mpc play" abspielen.
Das mit der Playliste hat für mich den Vorteil, dass ich z.B. einen Gong und dann die eigentliche Durchsage zusammenhängen kann wie ich möchte.

Mein Problem ist: Wie sende ich vom HS aus ein Telegramm dass z.B. "mpc play" ausführt? 7

Ich hab nen ganz alten Baustein den ich mal ne ganze Zeit erfolgreich genutzt hab. Da der aber nicht so "perfekt" ist wie er soll nutz ich den im Moment nicht. Ich hab aber bereits ein Konzept wie ich auch die Kommunikation mit mehreren MPD's die ihre Lieder von einer "ampache" Installtion bekommen. Wird aber sicher noch ein paar Wochen dauern bis ich damit anfange, da da noch ein "paar" ganz andere Dinge vorher kommen

Hallo zuerst, an alle Forenmitglieder und Mitleser!
Bis jetzt zähle ich mich auch zu den Mitlesern und Nutznießern dieses super Forums.
Bisher konnte ich alle Informationen die ich benötigte mit der Suchfunktion und durch mitverfolgen der Beiträge erhalten.

Jetzt steh ich allerdings auf dem Schlauch:
Status: Glücklicher Besitzer eines HS und eines Musicpals mit installiertem Palmod und MPD.
Über Telnet kann ich über "mpc add songname.mp3" einzelne Titel zu einer Playliste zusammenfügen und dann per "mpc save durchsage1" abspeichern.
Zum verwenden der Playliste als Durchsage, müsste ich "mpc clear" und "mpc load durchsage1" eingeben und dann mit "mpc play" abspielen.
Das mit der Playliste hat für mich den Vorteil, dass ich z.B. einen Gong und dann die eigentliche Durchsage zusammenhängen kann wie ich möchte.

Mein Problem ist: Wie sende ich vom HS aus ein Telegramm dass z.B. "mpc play" ausführt?

Herzlichen Dank, Wolfgang

Hi
das "palmod" ist zwar schlecht dokumentiert (meiner Meinung nach) - aber wenn man man Google´t findet man dass der "mpd"-Addon ein mächtiges tool ist.
Damit kann man auch nur einen Song abspielen - ohne einen Loop zu haben. Ist ganz gut zu gebrauchen um eine "Durchsage" zu gestalten.
Dazu muss man allerdings die Ansagen vorher irgendwo abspeichern (USB / Netzwerk:Samba) - in die mpd-Datenbank aufnehmen (mpc update) dann Playliste leeren (mpc clear) und song aufnehmen (mpc add "songname") - im zweifelsfall mit "mpc search any <suchstring>" suchen und dann mit "mpc play" abspielen.

Hi Jonofe,

Yes, you have to analyse the html source. You have to find the source for the form. Here the example to show the clock

Thank you for the hint.

I think it should be sufficient to define an URL to an MP3 file as favourite and than call this favourite.

OK, I'll try it

About the paradox between the samples mentionned here, it is definitely related to the FirmWare version. I've 1.67 (BETA)

As mentionned before, I noticed some inconsistencies, bizarre behaviour.
A concrete example is the "text display"
This thing seems to work only once, not twice, but ... it seems to depend on the mode which it is in !
So, if the clock is displayed and I issue the "display text" command, it works.
A second "display text" command will not work, unless .... I switch to another mode, ie, hit the FAV button.
So, I'm close to the end, if I could know how to remotely switch between modes.

Any hint ?

Here is my status:
the following is working fine: favorits (radio), volume, brightness (all modes)
clock doesn't work anymore (although it was working fine before)
the following doesn't work well: display text
to be done: stream a MP3 file

[jonofe]

How did you get that ? Maybe playing with the language parameter and looking in the source code of the management page ? If so, I should have thought about that.

Yes, you have to analyse the html source. You have to find the source for the form. Here the example to show the clock

<form method="post" action="[COLOR=Red][B]/admin/cgi-bin/admin.cgi?f=show_clock&amp;n=../show_clock.html[/B][/COLOR]">
<div class="apply_button">
<input class="button" type="submit" value="[COLOR=Lime][B]Uhrzeit anzeigen[/B][/COLOR]" name="[B][COLOR=Blue]apply[/COLOR][/B]" />
</div>
</form>

Now you can see the POST URL (marked in red), but you have to replace the &amp; by an &.
And you can find out the name (blue) and the value (green) of the data to post. (replace each space by an +)
With that, you should be able to control the musicpal web-interface functions by HTTP-POST calls.

I'm the only one having Firmware: 1.67 (BETA) ?

I'm using the same FW.

PS: If I want to play MP3 files, is it sufficient to copy the files somewhere on a remote web server like the example

or is it mandatory to have a streaming application available on that remote web server ?

I think it should be sufficient to define an URL to an MP3 file as favourite and than call this favourite.

[Warichet]

Hi Jonofe,

Thank you for all those infos, appreciated !

in French it should be apply=Afficher+horloge

How did you get that ? Maybe playing with the language parameter and looking in the source code of the management page ? If so, I should have thought about that.

you should try the template from taxus

Well, things are going weird.
I re-tried the original syntax from Taxus, and it works fine, for all states. The clock display doesn't work anymore.
The behaviour is irrational, I've the impression it is based on a previous state or command execution, but no clue as to which one.

I'm the only one having Firmware: 1.67 (BETA) ?

Beispiel: http://nas01.goeran.local/music/like...hesunshine.mp3

[jonofe]

I managed to get the clock display working .... after setting the MusicPal language to ... german (I'm unable to find the keywords for french).

in French it should be apply=Afficher+horloge


Concerning brightness you should try the template from taxus and change the POST URL and the last enty as follows. Please replace the "x" with the brightness you want to set.

brightness clock:
POST /admin/cgi-bin/admin.cgi?f=display_brightness_clock&n=../display_brightness_clock.html
brightness=x

bightness activity
POST /admin/cgi-bin/admin.cgi?f=display_brightness_active&n=../display_brightness_active.html
brightness=x

brightness sleep timer
POST /admin/cgi-bin/admin.cgi?f=display_brightness_sleep_timer&n=../display_brightness_sleep_timer.html
brightness=x

brightness standby mode
POST /admin/cgi-bin/admin.cgi?f=display_brightness_sleeping&n=../display_brightness_sleeping.html
brightness=x


hope it works ...

[Warichet]

Yes you are right it should Be 22

Well, after some testing, it must be 21 (22 doesn't work)
It beats me!

I managed to get the clock display working .... after setting the MusicPal language to ... german (I'm unable to find the keywords for french).
The example from Taxus must be entered exactly as shown.

Still trying to change the brightness and display some text ........

[NilsS]

Yes you are right it should Be 22

[Warichet]

Hi Nils,

Use a base64encode Baustein in GLE and encode
usernamE:Password to base64 and put it
Authorization: base64encodedUserPass

Pfiou, completely missed this problematic.
Thank you very much for the tip.

About the length, did you notice it's written 21, I count 22 characters
If it was an index, I could assume it is starting from 0, but here ? shouldn't it be an absolute value for the length ?

[NilsS]

1) about Authorization, I guess it is: username space password in clear text ?, no special characters ?
Authorization: <Username> <Password>

Use a base64encode Baustein in GLE and encode
usernamE:Password to base64 and put it

Authorization: base64encodedUserPass

[Warichet]

I've read and understood Jonofe's arguments about http_get and http_post.
I've read and understood Taxus's samples.

Well, no, I failed to look into the sample for the clock (I wasn't interested in the clock)
I guess the answer is there, it clearly mentions the HTTP_POST

Nevertheless, it brings yet some other questions
1) about Authorization, I guess it is: username space password in clear text ?, no special characters ?
Authorization: <Username> <Password>
2) about Length, how can I compute the length ? starting from where ?

Thank you

[Bodo]

... Under -"Web-Seiten/IP-Geräten", I can't see any place where I could specify the method either http_get or http_post.

Hi Warichet

If your "Message" is sent within the URL it is GET.

Example:

http://www.ip.com/script?v=100&r=200
