Force Squeezeplay to start on 'Home' screen.

Post by offbeatdave »

Hopefully this has a simple answer which I've missed - whenever I launch Squeezeplay on either of my Jogglers, it always defaults to the Now Playing screen and the last item played. Is there a way to make it default to the Home menu on launch (e.g. by editing a configuration file somewhere)?

Thanks!

I've not got a Joggler nearby to test this, but I think that option is under the configuration options in the SqueezePlay interface. Sorry, I don't know exactly where at the moment, but I'm pretty sure I've seen it.

Thanks for the suggestion. I think I've looked through all the menu options, but I will have another look. My better half says that I can't find anything unless it sets off a firework display so I'll look carefully!

Well, having had a good poke around all the menu options, I can't seem to find anything that configures Squeezeplay to start on the Home screen instead of the 'Now playing' screen so I presume it'll be in a lua file somewhere. Any thoughts/suggestions where to poke around next?

I think you're right - just had a look and couldn't find what I thought was there either. I think you're down to poking around in the config files!

Might have to give up on this - it's saving whatever is playing as a playlist (generally in squeezeserver/prefs folder) but I can't seem to stop it doing it!

Do you have a server plugin installed that saves your playlist?
I don't know if there are any plugins that do this (a cool feature if you request it, not so cool if you don't) but if there's nothing in the player menu items, I'd poke around the server options.
