Please start material as follows:
http://SERVER:9000/material/desktop?debug=json
This will cause the messages sent to LMS, and responses received to be logged to the console tab in your browser's developer tools. Please do the following:
Your console should now have the REQ and RESP messages used to ask for and receive the track listing. Please post those here. Thanks.
Here is what asked for, hope it helps.

You can see that only has 6 tracks. So, not much Material can do here. It asks for the track listing, and LMS returns only 6 tracks.
As for the queue oddities. The problem here is that Material currently has no debug here. I've just added some, but you would need to install the code from git - which means manually copying the files. Another solution would be to look at the network tab in your browser's developer tools. So:
["status",0,500,"tags:cdegltuysAKNRS"]
(desktop browsers) or ["status",0,500,"tags:cdegltuysAKNS"]
(mobile browsers). For this request, click on the 'Response' tab on the right - and paste here
Chrome: On the left will be requests under 'Name', find 'jsonrpc.js' Click on this and you should see details on the right. Keep liking these until you see the status/tags display as detailed in Firefox above. Paste the whole response here.I've already realized the two missing tracks in the JSON response from LMS. I just wonder why the Default skin sees eight tracks, though. I assume it's not requesting this information in JSON format? Still it's kind of strange. LMS' music library seems to be OK, just the JSON string LMS returns is lacking information.
Are you aware of any way to fix this? Doing a "Rescan Media Library" via LMS' "Basic Settings" did not help me here (not even when chosing "Clear library and rescan everything"). What did help is to temporarily remove such albums from the music directory, do a re-scan (to have them removed from the LMS library), re-add the albums and do re-scan again. This helped for the one album for which I've just tested this.
I will try temporarily clear the media library (e.g. by giving LMS a dummy path as media folder) and proceed as described above. (Of course, not before I helped to collect all relevant information on this issue.)
Here is the network response when playing the album for which I've sent the prvious JSON string (it also contains just those six tracks):

OK, that is odd. LMS states there are 8 tracks, but only returns 6? Whilst this could be an issue with Material, its looking very much like an LMS issue to me. Have you tried with other control points - e.g. iPeng, Orange Squeeze, SqueezeCtrl, Squeezer? AFAIK these use JSONRPC too (but some, e.g. iPeng/SqueezCtrl, send control messages via Cometd) . Not 100% sure what the default web UI uses.
What version of LMS are you using?
The only other controller I have tried so far is Squeezer. It also gives me the correct information (8 tracks), but it connects to LMS via the telnet port (9090), therefore I guess it does not retrieve the album information via a JSON response.
I am running LMS on a Synology DS415play. However, I am not using the 7.9.1 image provided by Synology but I've downloaded a 7.9.2 image from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/lmsupdate/files/DSM6.x/
This is what LMS tells me:
Logitech Media Server Version: 7.9.2 - 0023.1559540205 @ Wed Jun 5 14:51:56 CEST 2019

Can you use curl from a commandline? If so, try:
curl 'http://SERVER:9000/jsonrpc.js' --data '{"id":1,"method":"slim.request","params":["aa:aa:93:0a:1b:fa",["status",0.100]]}'
Replace SERVER
with your LMS's hostname/IP. Does this return details for 8 tracks?
Here's what curl gave me (it's eight tracks):
{
"id": 1,
"method": "slim.request",
"params": [
"aa:aa:93:0a:1b:fa",
[

}
]
}
}
And here's what I see with Material Skin (same screenshot as above):
That's! great! What that means is something in the tags:
parameter is causing LMS to filter out items. So, I'm assuming the following will only give 6 tracks:
curl 'http://SERVER:9000/jsonrpc.js' --data '{"id":1,"method":"slim.request","params":["aa:aa:93:0a:1b:fa",["status",0.100,"tags:cdegltuysAKNRS"]]}'
...as this is the command Material is using. Please check the above still works (as in still returns incorrect amount). Then, please do the command but remove a letter from tags:
until all 8 tracks are returned.
Hmm. Not sure what you would have expected.
Here is what I got for
curl 'http://192.168.1.100:9002/jsonrpc.js' --data '{"id":1,"method":"slim.request","params":["aa:aa:93:0a:1b:fa",["status",0.100,"tags:cdegltuysAKNRS"]]}'
It contains the first track only:
{
"params": [
"aa:aa:93:0a:1b:fa",
[
"status",
0.1,
"tags:cdegltuysAKNRS"
]
],
"result": {
"rescan": "1",
"player_name": "Kitchen",
"player_connected": 1,
"player_ip": "192.168.1.100:42407",
"power": 1,
"signalstrength": 0,
"mode": "play",
"time": 79.0941779441833,
"rate": 1,
"duration": 252.081,
"can_seek": 1,
"mixer volume": 40,
"playlist repeat": 0,
"playlist shuffle": 0,
"playlist mode": "off",
"seq_no": 0,
"playlist_cur_index": "5",
"playlist_timestamp": 1560681206.88821,

"digital_volume_control": 1,

{
"playlist index": 0.1,
"title": "Make It",
"id": 164189
}
]
},
"id": 1,
"method": "slim.request"
}
And it does not change, no matter how many letters I remove from tags
.
D'oh!!! I made an error in the previous example 0.100
should have been 0,100
- this is the range of tracks to return (0 to 100). So, can you try:
curl 'http://SERVER:9000/jsonrpc.js' --data '{"id":1,"method":"slim.request","params":["aa:aa:93:0a:1b:fa",["status",0,100,"tags:cdegltuysAKNRS"]]}'
Please check the above still works (as in still returns incorrect amount). Then, please do the command but remove a letter from tags:
until all 8 tracks are returned.
OK, here we go.
For the sake of readability I've attached a zip-File containing four JSON files named after the tags
I've used to create these responses.
While with tags:cdegltuysAKNRS
and tags:cdegltuysAKNR
there were only six tracks present in the response, with tags:cdegltuysAKN
all eight tracks were present. I've then tried tags:cdegltuysAKNS
which also resulted in the correct list of eight tracks.
Thanks for that. So, its the R
which is supposed to return a track;s rating. Not sure why that's causing tracks to not appear. Pretty sure this is also the reason for the browse error too.
Are any of these songs rated? Have a rating tag? Do you use TrackStat?
I am not aware of having rated any of the songs in my library. How/where would I do that and how/where can I check if I have maybe rated them by accident?
I am also not aware of any rating tags in the files themselves. I actually don't see any significant differences in the ID3 metadata between the two tracks not displayed and the other six tracks. And as I wrote earlier, for another album also having this issue, I succeeded to make previosuly not displayed tracks visible again by temporarily removing them from and re-adding them to the LMS library. This indicates it has nothing to do with the metadata in the file itself but with whatever metadata/information stored in LMS' library.
And I've just verified I don't have the TrackStat plugin installed. Do you suspect any other LMS plugin to mess things up? Would it help to give you a list of LMS plugins I have installed?
Sorry, I really have no idea about other plugins - I'm actually pretty new to LMS!
Anyhow, for 0.8.2 I've updated the code to only use R
if TrackStat is installed - the rating would only be displayed if this was installed, so there is no need to fetch if not.
However, using R
in the tags:
section should not cause any filtering. the tags:
section indicates which info a controller would like to know about, not what it should filter on. I'm guessing that LMS has some sort of error when accessing ratings for these files (for whatever reason), causing them not to be added to the respective lists. This is an LMS issue. It's not seen in other controllers, as I'd imagine they are not requesting this info. I suggest you raise an issue on LMS's github issue tracker.
But as for Material, I think this issue is now resolved - so I'm closing. I'll release 0.8.2 soon.
I am using v0.8.1 and realized for certain albums in the album view of the "Browse" area not all tracks are displayed (see the following screenshot where tracks 3 and 5 are not listed):
Using the "Default" skin and browsing to the very same album all tracks are being listed:
In addition, when playing such an album via the Material skin also the queue will not show these missing tracks:
Again, when switching to the "Default" Skin all tracks can be seen in the queue:
When the queue in Material Skin reaches the position of a not displayed track the actual missing track is being played, but the skin shows a wrong title (in the screenshot below track 3 is actually being played, but it is shown as track 4): In addition, the progress bar and time info at the very bottom are not displayed at all for this track while it is being played:
When the playlist advances to the actual song 4 the queue suddenly displays the following:
When the playlist reaches the position of the 7th track it looks as follows (Note that "Don't stop the music" already added some new tracks):
This is the queue that is being displayed by "Default" skin:
When hitting the refresh button of the browser, I get the following (which is also wrong):
Here's the correct information given ny "Default" skin:
