Status:
Should be fully working. No known major bugs so far,

Any feedback can be posted in this thread until furter notice,

Hey there - this is FANTASTIC! I'm a long long time squeezebox user, but no real expectations or hopes that someone would do this for N9... To hell with 1.2, this is real progress.

The only feedback beyond that i have is that volume control (rather than just mute) would be great, but i don't know if that is available via the interface method you are using.

The (hardware) volume keysshould act as volume control.

EDIT: It seems to be a problem with the volume keys. I need to look into that.

Yeah, i initially wondered about that, but it didn't when i first tried - the app then went a bit laggy so it was kind of hard to see what was working. I have restarted the app and that is now working. GREAT

There is still some odd behaviour though around the mute button...

* UI says it is muted, but music is playing & has volume -
* unmute and music then mutes and will not return.
* Try to unmute via a touch and after a second it UI reverts to muted...
* Go to Web Interface - volume has been minimised
* Use volume keys to increase volume...

I can reproduce.. not a major obviously, but something to look at

Hey pakarlss
This is really great! Fantastic app-good job! Thank you very much.
In my opinion, there is only one thing missing:
It would be fantastic if there were a possibility to browse for artists and after that, selecting a certain album of this artist. it should then play all songs of this album.

Thanks valimir and PhatApteryx!

@valimir
I'll put your proposal on the todo list for upcoming versions.

Very awesome.

One of the most important things missing on my N9 and now it's here. Thank you so much :D

Only thing I noticed is that when I picked help in the menu I were not able to scroll so could only see the first help page.
No big deal as everything was quite intuitive but might be nice to have it fixed for future users.

Yep, second that!

I plan a solution with the actions listed below:
  • For artist views:
    - Click: Gives a view of the artist's albums.
    - To play the artist: Long press -> Context menu -> Play
  • For album views:
    - Click: Gives a view of the album songs
    - To play the album: Long press -> Context menu -> Play

Would that be ok?

So, the following action should then be possible, right:
After selecting an artist, the list of the artist's albums pops up. Out of this list, one is then able to let the squeezebox play the full album by pressing long on the requested album.
If yes, this would be the perfect solution and exactlly what I'm missing in the first version so far :D. Thanks pakarlss!!
