Sneak peek at itunes based subsonic web UI

[Frank2808]

Hey sorry it took me so long. Below is the error details:

Webpage error details

It looks like a bug when explicitly setting the url.
Can you open the file subsonic-bootstrap.js and change line which currently says:

Code: Select all

Ext.hide();

and change it to say:

Code: Select all

Ext.MessageBox.hide();

Let me know if that gets you further.

[Frank2808]

Thanks for your help. I did as you said now I get the box asking for the subsonic url.. I put the url in and I get a blank screen. No error... just blank

[mattgoldspink]

Hmm... Is the server accessible over the internet? If so could you PM the address and I'll take a look. I don't need an account to do this. If it's not available could you hit:

http://192.168.2.9/music/rest/ping.view ... xt&v=1.2.0

and then do view source, what do you see?

I'm assuming it doesn't work on a Windows server? I tried running it but I just get a blank page (???)

[mattgoldspink]

It will work on any server, but it will only work in Firefox 3.6+, Chrome, Safari and (possibly) IE9 (Assuming IE9 has webworkers)

Works just fine for me on WHS.

I have a couple of feature requests if your taking them...

1.)Add an option to expand or collapse all the folder trees.

2.) Add a shuffle/random option

3.) Add a view where you can see the album art once per album and then a list of all the songs on that album. this view exists in current iTunes (2nd view option) and in my opinion is the cleanest look.

[mattgoldspink]

Glad you got it working and thanks for the suggestions. I've added them all to the issue tracker here: http://code.google.com/p/subtunes/issues/list

At the moment I'm working hard on getting an iPad version done. I've got most of the UI work done for it (I'm hoping iPhone/Android won't be much work once the iPad version is done). To be honest I can't give an ETA on how long it'll take but hoping to have something decent by the end of November for people to play with. Watch this space...

And to whet the appetite here's a first screen shot:

Will hopefully have something working by the end of next week that I can release

@mattgoldspink

Looking forward to a stable release with the features implemented for running via Apache on different ports than Subsonic itself. For now, my subsonic runs on port 80 just to make it easy for me to hit my domain name without having to specify the port.

[explodingzebras]

http://localhost:4040/subtunes

gives me:

HTTP ERROR: 404

NOT_FOUND

RequestURI=/subtunes

Powered by Jetty://


http://localhost/subtunes/
get's me a prompt for a URL for subsonic and I've tried http://localhost:4040 but get blank screen

Ubuntu 10.0.4, Firefox 3.6.13

@Tanner Williamson

If you're happy to run on Apache then you can use mod_proxy for this: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_proxy.html. I'll put some docs together for it this week, but in the meantime you can try it for yourself from the link. If you want to do this on another webserver (not apache then let me know and I'll see if I can dig up the relevant info).

@explodingzebras

Can you try hitting http://localhost:4040/subtunes/ (note the last slash). You will initially get the subsonic regular login, but once you're logged into that hit the above url and see if that works.

[explodingzebras]

no change unfortunately, it'd be nice if Subtunes was easier to install.

[mattgoldspink]

Sorry you're having trouble. I plan to make it easier in the future.

If your able to make your server publicly accessible could your PM the details, I don't need an account on your server to take a look.

[explodingzebras]

I'm testing Subtunes with subsonic on my laptop, only my server with subsonic is accessible from the outside, which i don't wish to change atm. It's ok, i don't mind waiting for an easily installable version
