Leia DS - a DS application running on Nokia N800/810
Moderator: Staff
New version 0.3-4 available
I just released a new version 0.3-4 where the Internet Radio stuff is (hopefully) fixed. Please try it out and drop me a short note if it isn't working for you.
As always, you'll find the new version here:

Crashes :-(
I just installed an Akurate DS and got it working with the Linn GUI. Seeing how poor the Linn GUI is, I installed the latest Leia (Dec 19) on both my Vista laptop and my Nokia 810 (running the latest OS2008, updated today).
On both installations, Leia finds both my DiskStation and my AVA RS3 NAS devices, but while I can navigate into the DiskStation folders (which hold my MP3 files), when I try to navigate into my RS3 folders (which hold my FLAC files), Leia crashes. On the Nokia 810 it just vanishes, on Vista it displays a VC++ error message before going away.
Also on both installations, it crashes in the same way if I select Tools/Info... from the menu.
Any ideas for fixing the problem, or am I stuck with the Linn GUI on my laptop?

Re: New version 0.3-4 available
Unfortunately I uploaded an interim version instead of the final version, I just fixed that by uploading the correct version. So please reinstall version 0.3-4, if you already have installed it.sommerfee wrote:I just released a new version 0.3-4 where the Internet Radio stuff is (hopefully) fixed.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Re: Crashes :-(
Hi dlorde,
Thanks for your bug report. What Media Server software are you using on your AVA RS3 NAS, Twonky or something different?
Could you please send me the log files (or post them here, they shouldn't be long, just a few lines) of both crashes? This would be very kind and would help me a lot spotting the error.

If Leia DS crashes (or disappears on the Nokia) it should have left a log file behind. On the Nokia you'll find the log file in your Documents folder, on Windows you'll find it in your personal folder (usually "My Documents" or something like this). The log file is named leiads-xxx.log where xxx is a timestamp when Leia DS was started.dlorde wrote:On both installations, Leia finds both my DiskStation and my AVA RS3 NAS devices, but while I can navigate into the DiskStation folders (which hold my MP3 files), when I try to navigate into my RS3 folders (which hold my FLAC files), Leia crashes.

The AVA RS3 is running all sorts - Twonky, Squeeze Centre, FireFly, RealTek HD... When Leia displays it, it shows as:
<ServerName>:1:Windows Media Connect
The laptop has a bunch of Leia log files in the Documents directory, but they're all empty.
On the N810, one log file has this:
That's all there is...

On the N810, one log file has this:

Hi dlorde,
Thanks for the log file.
As I see from the log Leia DS has problems understanding the responses coming from this media server.
Unfortunately I cannot test Leia DS against it simply because I do not have a PC running XP or Vista. So I need your help fixing this, I'll send you an PM because of this additionally.
Axel
Thanks for the log file.
This response seems to come from the Windows Media Player of Windows Vista. See also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Media_Connectdlorde wrote:When Leia displays it, it shows as:

OK, I'm happy to help. The AVA RS3 is running Windows Home Server, not Vista. Looks like it's running Windows Media Connect as well as the other media servers I mentioned. WHS is not uncommon for NAS's, so it's worth sorting out..
I'm happy to help. I'm going to see if WMC can be disabled without affecting the other server software...

I just build a new release 0.3-6. Excerpt from the changelog:
* Swedish translation added (thanks to Johan Millert)
* The list of Media Servers is sorted alphabetically now
* While saving a playlist an info about persistency will be shown now
* Bugfix: The volume bar will be set immediately after mute toggling
Since this release also contains a UPnP stack where I have rewritten some core code (as preparation for Cara firmware and other enhancements) and changed some of the internal TCP/IP timeouts I didn't put this thing into the stable directory (yet) but into the testing one instead:
http://leiads.sommerfee.f-m.fm/testing/
If you have problems with this version please send me a note (and downgrade to the lastest stable version 0.3-5).
Happy Easter,
Axel

Leia DS not-yet-0.4 released
Since Linn has just released the Cara Beta 1 firmware here comes the corresponding Leia DS release:
Leia DS not-yet-0.4 can be found in the directory http://leiads.sommerfee.f-m.fm/experimental/
It should work with Auskerry, Bute and Cara devices.
Unfortunately this version is not complete yet, the adaption of playlist loading, saving and shuffling is not done yet so this functionality is missing here. :( But beside this the new version should work as fine as the latest stable release 0.3-6.
Since this version offers less functionality than 0.3-6 there is no use in updating except you want to play around with the new Cara firmware.
Happy beta testing,
Axel

time handling
I'm using the Leia DS for some months and it's very useful - thanks!
But it would be more useful if there's any time handling. Especially seeing the total time when loading any album and the ongoing time during playing would be very useful.
Thanks again for your effort!

Re: time handling
Hi maxbreak,
(Don't know about Asset UPnP, will check this and report.)
Axel
Unfortunately neither Twonky4 nor Media Tomb offers this information to Control Points. So Leia DS can't display it :(maxbreak wrote:Especially seeing the total time when loading any album
(Don't know about Asset UPnP, will check this and report.)
That's on top of my wish list, too. Once the "Cara" adaptions are finished (and version 0.4 is released) I will spend my time for things like these.and the ongoing time during playing would be very useful.

LeiaDS 0.4-2 released
The Cara adaption is finished now, and therefore I just uploaded a new "unstable" version 0.4-2:
http://leiads.sommerfee.f-m.fm/unstable/
Beside the Cara stuff I revised the Auskerry & Bute stuff as well, making it (hopefully) faster and even more reliable as it already was.
Furthermore I added a "Repeat Mode" for Auskerry & Bute, but (as opposite to the "Repeat Mode" offered by Cara) it only works if Leia DS is running when the end of the playlist will be reached, so Leia DS can restart the playlist again.
Happy testing,
Axel

Leia DS 0.4-3
Just updated Leia DS to version 0.4-3:
http://leiads.sommerfee.f-m.fm/unstable/
Please note that the Linux and Windows version needs GTK+ 2.12 as minimum requirement now (while previous versions of Leia DS did run with GTK+ 2.10 as well).

Re: French version off leiads
Hi Jean-Marie,
When you unpack the archive file leiads_0.4-4.tar.gz you'll find a file called intl.c in the directory "src" which contains all the texts in different languages (currently: English, German and Swedish).
Just replace the English texts with French ones, and add yourself to the "translator_credits" on top of the file and send me the file back. (My e-mail address is axel.sommerfeldt@f-m.fm.)
Please note that you don't have to translate the GPL licence (maked with /* LICENCE */ in intl.c) for yourself, translations can be found here:

Axel

french translation of Leiads
OK Axel,
I'm going to do that very soon. ( in a couple of day or so )
Just a question.
I noticed that there is a new topic in the "Leiads" menu called "library" with "go back" and "refresh"
I'm not sure that I understand theses features.
Could you explain what matter with this ?
Thanks
Jean-Marie
