I've modified my code to check for radio.net appearing in the URL of the favorite. If it matches, the skill plays that favorite via the playlist-menu construct (and apparently the plugin) rather than directly by URL. Note that playing favorites this way will be noticeably slower than if the URL can be played directly. It's a shame that the ID returned when you do ["favorites", "items", 0, 300, 'search:reggae', 'want_url:1'] cannot be used to then -play -the favorite. I have to remove the 'search' parameter and loop through the hierarchy with ["favorites", "items", 0, 300] until I get a match. The results of doing it that way include an ID which actually is playable. I also do not understand why the IDs need to be ephemeral instead of just constant. Strange LMS behaviour but it is what it is. Anyway, it's live so enjoy! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ philchillbill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=68920 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111951 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
