Exactly the same problem here on my slug with mt-daapd-1696 with opera bowser on wii and firefox bowser on my linux.
I use FlashDAAP v0.3
But this time the flash 7 display something on the wii 🙂

Also, I have some artists with special characters like åäö é and ü. What to do with those?

This is not mentioned at all on the Firefly XML trac wiki.

No idea, trying a few things.

http://slug:3689/databases/1/items?meta=dmap.itemid,daap.songalbum,dmap.itemname&output=xml&query='daap.songartist:Björk'

returns no items.

But it works in “playlist.html” so let’s look in the source for that?

o umlaut is hex C3B6 in the database so the query is ‘daap.songartist:Bj%C3%B6rk’

the SQL used was

bash-3.2# sqlite3 /opt/var/mt-daapd/songs3.db

SQLite version 3.4.1

Enter ".help" for instructions

sqlite> select distinct(hex(distinct(artist))) from songs where artist like 'Bj%';

sqlite> .quit

OK, that is the utf-8 encoding.

Perhaps I’ll just have to find myself a nice big utf-8 table and translate against?

OK a few bugs you might want to know about.

Can get more than one song playing at the same time by clicking and playing songs in quick succession.
Clicking a compliation album will display all tracks regardless of the artist selected
Certain songs won’t show buffer status or progress while playing.
Ocasionally navigation stops working. e.g. selecting different artists wont change the album displayed

Otherwise the basic functionality works well and Röyksopp causes no trouble for me.

Well done. Keep it up!

The above only lists Latin encoding. for a UTF-8 list see this one

Flash has a function “escape” that converts the foreign characters into utf8. The problem is that the single quotation mark must be preceeded with a backslash. I’m writing a small routine that takes care of that at the moment, calling it “fireescape” 🙂

OK. Here we go again:

Right-click etc…

Good night! (1.14 am)
