If you use the HSTouch Shuffle action, the plug-in will also send the request to the player.

btw, it seems that if you do the "hs.speak" action, even though you have nothing playing (but you do have a full playlist) that once its done speaking it will try and play it (i believe it is even very short, but you will notice)
bad part about this is, when i listen to spotify on my iphone at work, when somebody rings the doorbell at home my music stops here.. (because spotify was in the playlist at home, you can only stream 1 client at a time)

Have you tried setting the player's speak volume device to 0? If set to 0 it should not speak it on that player. Another option if you don't use the speak via the SB plug-in is to disable it. Is this player typically turned OFF when it tries to speak or ON and paused? I will try to reproduce it.

Well the player is suppose to speak. It does speak correctly when the music is playing for instance, it stops the music then speaks, then start what was playing again.
When there is no music playing but there is still a playlist present it will speak (so yes, turned on and paused) then for a short duration (talking here in less then a second maybe) i can hear the speakers pop a sound. When using spotify that second is enough to trigger spotify to cancel streaming on wherever i am
In the other thread i referred to http://www.domoticaforum.eu/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=3768 which had a script which does something similar, but this one starrt playing the old playlist after a "speak" or "wav" file, which is a bad thing. It does however use a "silent" wav file for knowing when the sound is done. Perhaps he had the same issue.
Just thinking out loud here, you know more then me

Can I have a little tiny bit more information about the way TTS and wavein work?
Do you have to be running a speaker client on a windows box to use the wavein?
My sqeezeserver is running on a linux box, (vortexbox 1.5)
TTS seems to work, so I'm guessing what it does is use a speech proxy to intercept it, then play it on the sqeezeboxes and then return the players to whatever state they were in right after?
I'm trying to figure out why wave in would be better, and how to make it work with a linux box as my sqeeezeserverJoe (zimmer62)

The TTS option uses the TTS Windows APIs to convert the text to a sound saving it to a file on the HS2 server and then streaming it to the SB server/players via the HTTP server embedded in HS2.
The wavein option redirects the audio on the SB server to the player(s). It samples any audio (again from a sound card on the SB server) to players not just a HS2 speaker client playing on the SB server to that this audio stream. For wavein to work, you need a HS2 speaker client to run on the computer where you run wavein to sample to audio output and redirect it to SB players. In your case and since I believe there is no HS2 speaker client for Linux, the TTS is your option (except of course if you run the hs2 speaker client on a windows and connect the audio out to the audio in of the sound card on the Linux SB server).

PHP Code:syncgroups ?
The "syncgroups" query returns a comma separated list of sync groups members (IDs and names).
Examples:
Request: "syncgroups ?<LF>"
Response: "syncgroups sync_members:04:20:00:12:23:45,04:20:00:12:34:56 sync_member_names:Living%20Room,Kitchen<LF>"
instead it would be something like this.
PHP Code:Public Function PlayerQueryCLICommand(ByVal playerName As String, ByVal
command As String, timeout as integer) As String

I updated the Beta version (2.0.0.11) in the first dialog that includes two APIs to query the SqueezeBox Server (for a specific player or the server). It returns the reply send by the server and can for example be used to query the syncgroups. See below
Code:str = hspi.PlayerQueryCLICommand("SqueezeboxTV", "sleep ?") hs.WriteLog("SB Music", "Player CLI Command: " & str) str = hspi.ServerQueryCLICommand("syncgroups ?") hs.WriteLog("SB Music", "Server CLI Command: " & str)

Settings on Server plug-in?
I just installed .12 of v2 beta. Went very smoothly and the integration w HSTouch looks to be excellent. Fantastic job!
One detail seems to be missing. I do not see how to update the IP address of HS in the SB Server plug-in. There is no link to Settings next to the plug-in entry. Is that deliberate, an oversight, or am I just missing something obvious?Mike____________________________________________________________ __________________
