Uninstall the previous one you installed from me.

The 0.1 version on code.google.com is signed with debug certs. The 0.2 version on the Market is signed with real certs.

$ adb uninstall com.danga.squeezer

excellent, thanks Brad, that sorted it.

Looks pretty good, nice and solid. Play/pause works well, volume up and down too.

Would be nice to change the vol icons to something more obvious? :)

oh, and the slider at the bottom doesn't seem to do anything, yet.

one wee bug: when switching players to a player that is off, the app doesn't notice, and thinks it's still playing.

good stuff, thanks.

cool, good to hear!  I actually hit that same problem today and had to ask an Android friend how to fix it.  He told me the same thing, "just uninstall it!"

Done.

Working on that now.

Hey! Great work so far, the included features works fine for me (0.3).
Although it won't connect if I add :9000 to the server IP (when I only
type the IP, it connects fine).

How do you plan to go about the artist/album/song/etc browser. I've
been using iPeng on my iPod Touch for a long time, I think they cache
the entire database on the device for faster browsing of large
archives.

It wants the CLI port, not the HTTP port.

When you only type the IP, it assumes the default CLI port of 9090.

 

When you type :9000 it connects to HTTP and does who-knows-what.  I wonder if I can detect that and then do an HTTP request to learn the CLI port and fix the user's mistake.  Hmm..... but doesn't look like the HTTP web interface exposes the port number anywhere that I can find.

Yeah, I plan to do that.

Hi Brad,

Fantastic work so far!

I installed v0.3 and it looks great.

Had the same problems as Magnus, as I did not know about the CLI port.
I even had a crashing dead-loop when I tried adding "http://" in front
of the host IP address. After a re-install I figured out to remove the
port 9000 specier and now it works like a charm ;-)

I also tried running the connection through a ssh tunnel from the
internet and it work fine too, I just didn't get any album arts for
some reason.

Keep up the good work, and just let me know if I can help out by some
specific testing or similar.

Cheers,
-Michael

Good bug report!  I'll fix that, and add a check to make sure the IP[:port] is well-formed and show an error message (or silently fix it).

Album art is only over the HTTP port, which it learns by asking the server when Squeezer first connects to the CLI port.

So you'd need another HTTP tunnel on e.g. port 9000.

Just keep reporting any bugs or usability issues.

If you have the Android SDK installed and get a crash, don't touch your phone and go plug-in the USB cable and run "adb logcat" on your desktop and send me the Java backtrace you find.  Or just tell me how to reproduce, which is just as good.
