Subsonic 6.1.beta1 released

EDIT: Due to issues related to the upgrade of the internal HSQLDB I have temporarily removed the beta from the Download page.

Dear friends,

From an API perspective, how is this different? I can just use the 'id' of the entry no matter its source and there won't be any overlap?

There is not change API-wise, it's just that the web app (and SONOS) now also uses the existing bookmark API.

[toolman]

Jusr installed the Subsonic 6.1.beta1 release on a testmachine
On the surface not much has changed.
There's one page more marked Bookmarks.
I did some tests on the searchfunction and this indeed seems to be performing a lot better.
However in the changelog it says: New: Added support for using MySQL, PostgreSQL and MariaDB as database backends.
I know you have to manually edit a file in Subsonic according to the OS on which Subsonic is running, but wouldn't it be a lot easier to create a page In Subsonic to enter the correct parameters according to the OS you are using? Preferably with a kind of check if you entered the correct data.
I think the current method to configure Subsonic to use another database is prone to mistakes and not very user friendly.
Other than that it seems to me that Sindre has done some major overhauling which makes Subsonic much better.

Thank you very much! The upgrade worked like a charm on FreeNAS, I just copied over the files of the standalone.tar.gz into the old folder and restarted the server! Is there any chance some of the themes that are available in madsonic will be imported? I really really love their Madsonic X-MAS Red theme

[kayzlot1]

Fixed Chromecast support and users can choose their video quality again!!!

Thanks Sindre

[guss77]

A. Thanks for the beta release!
B. Where is a good place to discuss issues with the beta?

[Tak-MK]

The re-scanning like the first time after upgrading is killing me, it'll last an entire day
But meh, thanks a lot for the upgrade! ¿Is there any test to know if MySQL/PostgreSQL is better than HSQLDB for Subsonic?

I'm having issues with the artist images (thumbnail and search images) loaded from last.fm while accessing the upgraded Subsonic via a Apache proxy, everything else seems to be rendering fine. When testing locally without the Apache proxy artist images are fine.

Ex.
1) Local access, image link rendering ok
http://192.168.2.198:4040/artistImage.view?id=40388 redirects to
https://lastfm-img2.akamaized.net/i/u/1 ... f0b6d9.png

2) Apache proxy access, image link rendered with error 404
https://mydomain.net/artistImage.view?id=40388 redirects to
https://mydomain.net/i/u/174s/f1cdf1e31 ... f0b6d9.png


Artist images within biography section is rendering fine together with text fetched from last.fm

Is this due to a bug in the beta release (or am I having a proxy issues)?

It's working for me using apache too.

Solved it, it was a incorrect ProxyPassReverse statement.

Then I'm happy, and can just say thanks for the updated release. Looking good so far

After upgrading from a working Subsonic 6.0 to 6.1b, I get a constraint violation in the ALBUM table (due to the ARTIST and NAME not being unique in a record as far as I can tell from the schema). I guess that means I must have two instances of the same album or something like that. I don't know if this is a new restriction enforced in 6.1b (or why 6.0 didn't seem to mind).

I plan on trying to access the database to see if I can find an easy way to determine if any records in the table do, in fact, have the same artist and album name values so I can remove them so I can start Subsonic again.

Code: Select all

The re-scanning like the first time after upgrading is killing me, it'll last an entire day

Same over here. I scan every morning at 8 hour clock and this takes normally about 20 a 25 minutes ( 250.000 songs ). The first scan after the update took almost all day, a daily rescan went from 20 a 25 minutes to 4 hours ????

The first scan after upgrading is a "deep" scan where all ID3 tags are read again. But I'm surprise that the subsequent scans are slower than before. Could be related to the new database version. I assume you're using the default HSQLDB database? Is there anything of interest in subsonic.log? (All database operations taking more than 2 seconds should be logged). Are your files on a network disk?

Thanks

Yup, I'm using HSQLDB, and with 1.5TB music disk... (local disk, no network), and it's taking hours and hours to scan after the first long scan.
And nope, I can't see anything relevant in the log:
