Madsonic 5.x XBMC Plugin

http://xbmc.org/


Contribution: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=99513 developed by t0mm0

0.5.2:
  • Update for Build 5060
  • Update Json Lib
0.5.1:
  • Update for Build 3800: add last played songs, new added songs

0.5.0:
  • browser by folder or artist
  • browse and play all your music/videos
  • browse starred artists, albums, songs
  • play at full quality (original files) or transcode to the bitrate of your choice in settings (full quality currently require DVDPlayer)
  • search for artist, album and songs
  • view hot, tip, newest, top rated, most played,recently played and random albums
  • generate random playlists by range of years and/or genre
  • play playlists from madsonic server
don't forget to set up your server info in the plugin settings.
by default it points at the demo server (http://demo.subsonic.org) so you can try it out of the box.

you might get better results if you force using DVDPlayer.
if you don't already have a playercorefactory.xml in your userdata directory then make a file and add the following in it.

Code: Select all

<playercorefactory>
    <rules action="prepend">
        <rule name="madsonic" filename=".*/rest/(stream|download).view.*" player="dvdplayer"/>
    </rules>
</playercorefactory>
if you already have one, just insert the line:

Code: Select all

<rule name="madsonic" filename=".*/rest/(stream|download).view.*" player="dvdplayer"/>
directly after the <rules> tag.

see http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HO ... a_playback for more info on playercorefactory.xml

I have a beginner question about this plug-in, will it work on a 64 bit WIndows 7 install. I have some google TV's setup around the house and accessing the videos can be done but it is difficult to locate what I'm looking for.

Any help or recommendations on how to set this up and get it working would be extremely helpful.

Right now I have a DLNA renderer setup on the Google TV's and they recognize the Madsonic DLNA server but Madsonic deiivery gives me one long list of over 75,000 files...very difficult.

I can also see Windows Media player but that has drawbacks that make it a very poor option.

Thank you in advance.

Mark

Realy strange thing has hapened. I dont see any arist names in xbmc anymore. I only see album/vinyl name and thats it. if I go to that folder then I only see track name. when I start the song then I can see arist/dj name. this is really annoying because I have about 420gb music in my computer. PS I use Index folder to play my track, because in the years I have come up whit my own solution to sort my music.

brilliant and works well, can I ask for a few tweaks using it for video by the way? when in any of the icon or fanart views what file is it looking for for the images or does it even look for images?

my folder structure is

Show
S01
Showname - Sxxexx - Episode Title

and every folder and subfolder has

banner.jpg
fanart.jpg
folder.jpg
poster.jpg

but no images show up?

and also can we have an option to show the history section of madsonic please, so then we can see each individual episode thats been added new

I was going to use Raspbmc and the plex addon but think this is a much better way as its a lot lighter in size and function

Has anyone tried installing it on the iOS version? I get a 'script failed' error which I didn't get when trying it with XBMC on Android.
This error does come when I try other subsonic plugins too...I haven't tried other random plugins to see if they get that too.

Plus last.fm scrobbling isn't working.
