Displaying cover art for the current song
1. Create new camera device(s) for the room(s) equipped with Squeezebox(es)
2. Configure the new camera device(s):
- IP address: IP address and port of your Squeezebox Server (<ip address>:<port number>)
- Path: music/current/cover.jpg?player=<MAC address> (replace <MAC address> with the MAC address of the player; IP address should work too)
Using the SBS CLI
Luup/Lua skeleton
socket=require('socket')
local client = socket.connect('<IP address of SBS>', 9090)
client:send("<CLI command>\n")
local result=client:receive()
...
For a list of valid <CLI command> navigate to: SBS's Home / Technical Information / Help / Command Line Interface
Some examples for <CLI command>
<duration> does not work for Squeezebox Radio due to Slimdevices bug #15749.
Displaying text
Syntax:
<MAC address of player> display <line1> <line2> <duration>
Example:
client:send("00:04:20:XX:XX:XX display Hello%20World%201 Hello%20World%202 10\n")
'Pressing' a button on the Squeezebox remote
Syntax:
<MAC address of player> button <buttoncode>
Example:
client:send("00:04:20:XX:XX:XX button brightness_toggle\n")
client:send("00:04:20:XX:XX:XX button volume_up\n")
client:send("00:04:20:XX:XX:XX button volume_down\n")
<buttoncode> as defined in Default.map; telnet to your SBS port 9090, type 'subscribe button' (without quotes), press <RETURN>, press the buttons of the remote to get the buttoncodes.
Skipping to the previous/next track
Syntax:
<MAC address of player> playlist index <index|+index|-index|?> <fadeInSecs>
Example:
client:send("00:04:20:XX:XX:XX playlist index -1\n")
client:send("00:04:20:XX:XX:XX playlist index +1\n")
Pause/Unpause playing
Syntax:
<MAC address of player> pause <0|1|> <fadeInSecs> <suppressShowBriefly>
Example:
client:send("00:04:20:XX:XX:XX pause\n")
Changing the volume level
Syntax:
<MAC address of player> mixer volume <0 .. 100|-100 .. +100|?>
Example:
client:send("00:04:20:XX:XX:XX mixer volume +10\n")
client:send("00:04:20:XX:XX:XX mixer volume -10\n")
Sending IR codes (SB2/3 and Transporter)
1. Plug an IR transmitter into the phones jack of your Squeezebox/Transporter.
2. Install IRBlaster.
3. Install the IR remote files for the IR devices you are going to control or use the IR Learning Wizard (part of IRBlaster) to record the codes of your remote.
4. Restart your SBS.
Now you are ready to send IR codes via Lua (adjust SBS_IP_address, SBS_CLI_port, playerid, remote_name, and command_name accordingly):
socket=require('socket')
local SBS_IP_address = '192.168.178.22'
local SBS_CLI_port = 9090
local playerid = '00:04:20:XX:XX:XX'
local remote_name = 'Onkyo_RC-738M' -- as defined in the LIRC configuration file for this remote
local command_name = 'PWR' -- as defined in thr LIRC configuration file for this remote
local client = socket.connect( SBS_IP_address, SBS_CLI_port )
function sendIR( device_MAC, remote, command )
client:send( device_MAC .. ' irblaster ' .. remote .. ' ' .. command )
client:receive()
end
sendIR( playerid, remote_name, command_name )
