Logitec Media Server plugin for Volumio

thank you @chourmovs_vs : I had the same issue (actually, the file sqeezebox was missing after I installed the package).

Your instructions to manually install solved the problem.

Hopefully someone will fix the package install

Hope it will be approved because my knowledge in git stuff is not at the level for the moment, but I work hard…

Thanks in advance for your hard work. :cowboy_hat_face:

if people here could test plugin manual install and give me a feedback

Procedure:
edit wget is broken look here:
https://community.volumio.com/t/logitec-media-server-plugin-for-volumio/6801/141?u=chourmovs_vs

Advantage over simple manual install proposed by Wheaten

  • every simlink and property of file/folder addressed
  • activable/de-activable
  • persistent service
  • cleanly uninstallable
  • local player plugin within LMS working to play directly to your hardware (thx to " usermod -aG audio squeezeboxserver")

Thank you by advance

this is not for x86?

Seems the download is incorrect. The filesize , < 1kb

I’m so sorry Wheaten it’s my mistake :roll_eyes: the option -O of wget must be capital letter
I correct the initial post

Edit :
Ok forget about it, wget seems broken, please find the plugin as attachment
transfer it via filezilla in /home/volumio

then in terminal ssh

volumio plugin install dstmmix.zip
rm dstmmix.zip

dstmmix.zip (206.0 KB)

Edit 2 :
Ok i’m sorry, in fact it seems to work only if i’m in my plugin git tree, and not from /home/volumio
strange I still need to understand why, but you can try by your side we never know…

and to answer to your initial question, it should be multiarch :slightly_smiling_face:

testing, not sure if you can run “volumio install” on a zip file, as it keep erroring out. Just unzipped the file and installation is running.

Besides the funny name, it’s working on my Dell Wyse 3040 (x86/64). :smile:

unzipped than volumio plugin install dstmmix
see attach

dstmmix stand for Don’t Stop The Music Mix, the second stage of the rocket :hugs:
Need to find a better name ^^

Zlaja5 looks machine or console related, maybe wait or try again

edit : try my procedure below, no ftp client needed

testing, not sure if you can run “volumio install” on a zip file, as it keep erroring out. Just unzipped the file and installation is running.*

Ok finally find an old manual plugin install procedure, and indeed you were right, unzip is necessary

So here it is:
ssh to volumio with a terminal

rm dstmmix*.* 
wget -O dstmmix.zip http://dl.rexnvs.com/dl/dstmmix.zip
mkdir ./dstmmix
miniunzip dstmmix.zip -d ./dstmmix
cd ./dstmmix
volumio plugin install
cd..
rm -Rf dstmmix
rm dstmmix.zip

yep that looks familiar and I know where you borrowed it :smile:

However the zip file is damaged. Tried 2 times. Original is 320kB, this one is only 127kB.

hahaha got it
Why things are always so complicated ???
you have to copy raw link https://github.com/chourmovs/volumio-plugins-sources/blob/master/dstmmix/dstmmix.zip?raw=true
(Don’t ask me why) and it works here

I edited the previous post
Thx my friend, nice collaboration ^^

Edit : I add also the command “rm dstmmix*.*” at the start of the sequence to be sure to unzip the right file in case of several attempt

Yep, it’s working now. :+1:
Please add as last command

rm dstmmix.zip

done thank you

Hello advanced users friends

For my plugin project, I will need to cross compile sources to provide different binaries on a maximum of machines with different architectures and thus propose multi-arch plugin
The sources of “Bliss analyser” by cdrummond are intended to be compiled by RUST and the cross compilation can be complicated if you don’t own the target machine.

To help me
Install dependencies
apt install -y clang libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev libavfilter-dev libavdevice-dev pkg-config

Install rust on your volumio
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

download sources
wget https://github.com/CDrummond/bliss-analyser/archive/refs/tags/0.2.1.zip

Unzip it
miniunzip 0.2.1.zip

Place in the good folder
cd bliss-analyser-0.2.1

Compile
source "$HOME/.cargo/env"
cargo build --release

Send me a message or put a link (gdrive,wetransfer…etc) to send me the binary and tell me your architecture, you’ll find the file to send in /target/release/ folder under the name of “bliss-analyser”

Thanks in advance

Shouldn’t you not just deal with this in the install.sh script, of your plugin?

I thought about it but the process of installing rust and compile source is somewhat heavier and longer than average plugin installation work, especially on low CPU machine
Another way for me could be to deal with rust builtin target cross compilation but it’s more risky in term of quality and I have to master the tool a way more than I do today

Just mentioning it, If people decide to have LMS on a low CPU, the price is waiting for the compile.
Otherwise you’ll have a lot of work keep everything up to date. Architecture will be reasonable stable but rev’s. won’t.
