[PROBLEM] no audio info in 9.2.0

[Tim Curtis]

@Tim Curtis 

For the last week I've been mostly quiet due to family events in MD, VA, and PA (Ah, what we Silverbacks do to see grandkids!).

A quick check tonight on a moOde 9.2.1 player vis a moOde 9.1.5 player

1. both players UPnP renderers set to service type: UPnP-A/V. Using mconnectLite on my iPad as UPnP control point and a local UPnP media server on my NAS. Using a Firefox browser on my Linux laptop. Start playing a track and in the webUI Playback screen click on '...' and choosing Audio info:

     - for the moOde 9.1.5 player I see the Audio information modal with the Track box highlighted and no track info displayed. Clicking the Playback box gets me the usual playback information (Input/output, etc.).

     - for the moOde 9.2.1 player, I get no modal popping up.

2. set both renderers to service type: OpenHome. Using Lumin on my iPad as UPnP control point. Everything else is the same.

     - the results are the same.

Haven't had time to look for any errors being logged. Suggested places to look?

Regards,
Kent

In file /var/www/command/audioinfo.php

Add the following workerLog() line above the switch statement. It will print the contents of the $_GET array to the moode log. This will show the 'cmd' and 'path' values which will allow you to walk the code path, possibly to the place where its blowing up.

Code:

workerLog("DEBUG:\n" . print_r($_GET, true));
switch ($_GET['cmd']) {
.
.
.

If nothing prints to the moode log then the blow up is prolly happening in function audioInfo() in upstream /var/www/js/playerlib.js.

Back to UPnP-A/V service type on the moOde 9.2.0 player and mconnectLite as Control Point. Start a track. With your added line, I get the following in the log (where 10.0.0.2 is my NAS and port 8200 is the miniDLNA service on it)

Code:

20241231 230248 worker: Ready
20241231 230711 DEBUG:
Array
(
   [cmd] => track_info
   [path] => http://10.0.0.2:8200/MediaItems/3173.flac
)

Ok, that would result in this case being executed

Code:

    case 'track_info':
        $sock = getMpdSock();
        sendMpdCmd($sock,'lsinfo "' . $_GET['path'] .'"');
        echo json_encode(parseTrackInfo(readMpdResp($sock)));
        break;

Try the following:

1. Turn on debug logging in System Config

2. Enter MPD lsinfo command on that URL and see if it returns the tracks metadata

Code:

telnet localhost 6600
lsinfo "http://10.0.0.2:8200/MediaItems/3173.flac"

3. If no metadata is returned check the moode log for 

Code:

DEBUG: parseTrackInfo(): Returned null

4. If metadata is returned then the function parseTrackInfo() would need to be instrumented

@Tim Curtis 

For both moOde 9.1.5 and moOde 9.2.1 players:

Metadata is returned by MPD

Code:

rho@m920blue:~ $ telnet localhost 6600

Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

OK

OTOH, in moode.log I see occurrences of

Code:

20250101 133436 DEBUG: enhanceMetadata(): error: currentsong file is NULL

Regards,
Kent

PS - may not be relevant but early on in moode.log I see occurrences of

Code:

20250101 133254 DEBUG: chkVariables(): Excluded key: path
20250101 133255 DEBUG: chkVariables(): Excluded key: path

[Tim Curtis]

Those excludes are ok.
The metadata from lsinfo looks ok.

This entry suggests there is no 'file' tag returned by the mpd currentsong command.
20250101 133436 DEBUG: enhanceMetadata(): error: currentsong file is NULL

While the track is playing try

Code:

telnet localhost 6600
currentsong

Ok, it looks like the lack of a file tag from lsinfo for UPnP paths is causing a blank array[0] element in the output from function parseTrackInfo() in command/audioinfo.php.

That can be fixed.

[Tim Curtis]

Ok, after looking at the code this morning its turns out to be a length index that needed to be bumped in command/audioinfo.php. See commit https://github.com/moode-player/moode/co...8d772c9d18

Pressed for time here but a quick test on this commit on both the moOde 9.1.5 and moOde 9.2.1 players seems to work fine. The audioinfo modal pops up on both and the track info is shown on both. Nice!

Cool.

Btw I tried to setup a quick UPnP config with dlna server on one pi and upnp renderer (OpenHome) on another pi and I could not get either Linn Kazoo or MConnect Lite to discover anything. I was able to Lumin to do it though. It instantly discovered the dlna server and moode upon renderer but its UI is ... challenging.

I find the whole UPnP environment...challenging. On the one hand, it's kind of painless to stream to local UPnP media renderers which might be hiding in our house. Examples: the LG smart TV and the Sonos soundbar. OTOH, it's a PITA to get media control points sorted vis-a-vis the service protocol. I have a stable of control points on my iPad and Pixel phone to deal the mess but I can never remember which knows only one service, which knows only the other, and which is ambidextrous, None has a UI that I particularly like but different strokes for different folks.

Kent.
