Music player for Raspberry Pi

piplayer's Issues

Tracks still highlighted after Stop.

Playing track is often left highlighted after Stop command. Maybe only after CD or Refresh command.

Issue monitor request on refresh

When a track is playing, a page refresh should issue a new 'monitor' request to get updates when the track finishes. (server.js - when playingfile is not null, body onload="xmlrequest('monitor')"...

Initialise progress bar on page reload

Send playing file info, position, duration and pause status on socket open. Format information messages in JSON.

Fix search result page display

Line breaks between entries, live link to current directory.

Some track names with non-ASCII chars display as char(FFFD)

It seems that id3v2 sometimes includes non-ASCII characters in TIT2, but not as UTF8. (I suspect Latin-1). These are not valid UTF8, so are read and displayed as invalid (FFFD). Probable fix; read the id3v2 as Latin-1, not UTF8; and don't use the filename if TIT2 value is non-ASCII.

Hide pause and stop buttons when not playing

Align progress bar

Positioning of progress bar under transport links.

Jump to track sometimes not working

When playing, clicking another track on the same album just stops playing, and doesn't start new track.
Workaround: click on Stop, then Refresh, then new track.

Next/Prev buttons

e.g. to skip next in random play mode

Add favicon

Simplest - supply and serve a favicon.ico.

random play all in directory

for single albums (directories) and parent directories (genre, artist)
