Fixed Radiobrowser - Access Error issue on some models #79

jonnieZG · 2020-12-03T07:47:37Z

Fixed issues:

Station UUIDs used by radiobrowser are translated into shorter strings, to work with some older radios (Subdirectories not accessable since upgrade from 1.0.0 to 1.1.0 release #67 and Yamaha NP-S2000: After switching to the new "uuid", the radio browser no longer works. "Access Error" #74)
Fixed radiobrowser service stations/byuuid/ REST method name

This is already fixed in #77

Not exactly, because this line is changed to fetch the original UUID from the registry - str(id_registry[uid]) instead of just str(uid) :

station_json = request('stations/byuuid/' + str(id_registry[uid]))

What's that for? We can use self.id

No we can't because the Access Error issue was caused by ID size limit to 15 chars in some radios. That's why we have to translate UUID (36 chars) to a fairly unique ID that will fit the limitation. Currently it is 12 chars, because with the prefix "RB_" it comes to exactly 15 chars.

I am using this dictionary in memory to avoid reading fetching the stations all over again from the remote service. While my_stations reads the stations all over again from the file, calculates ID and matches it on the fly, there are usually much more stations returned by the radiobrowser and going there twice just to find a matching UUID would be really slow.

I understand.
Can we split this cache speed improvement off of the functionality fix? Would be nice for testing and traceability.

I am sorry, I am not quite sure what you meant by that. There is no "cache speed improvement" here. Just keeping the ID-UUID dictionary of the last search response. How else would you be able to find the original station when the radio returns an ID that is nothing but a digest value that you calculated from the original station UUID?

The id_registry is absolutely necessary for this fix to work.

ycast/__init__.py

milaq · 2020-12-03T12:58:53Z

Thanks for your work 👍 I've annotated a few things for you.

The main fix is the shortening of the ID. Am I getting this right?

Exactly. Tested and working on my ancient V477.

Hello

I tested version 1.1.1 with my Yamaha NP-S2000.

The following result:

Operation directly on the Yamaha NP-S2000:
seems to be OK. I haven't seen any errors so far.

Operation via the “NP controller” APP does not work.
When selecting a station, the error appears on the Yamaha: "unable to play" (app: Android and IOS)
Example: Radiobrowser-> Country-> Germany-> Classic Radio-> Error "unable to play"

If I use the search function on the iPad (IOS), all listed stations can be played.
Search: "WDR" -> "WDR 1Live - DJ Session" -> OK, station is played back

I'm not a Phyton programmer, who can help? Suspect missing code in the APP part (Translate UUID into shorter strings)

Thank you for the great work so far.

Regards K. Hagena - Germany

jonnieZG · 2020-12-04T07:36:08Z

@milaq this might be an off-topic question, but why the additional_info parameter in method get_station_by_id? Since station_tracking is currently hard-coded to False, it fetches the url from the service twice.

File server.py:
station = get_station_by_id(stationid, additional_info=(not station_tracking))

I don-t have the NP Controller, but AV Controller, which are two branches of the same Yamaha app for different radio models. While browsing and playing on my RX-V477 works fine now, I noticed that on "AV Controller" app when browsing through categories list gets stuck somewhere after 1970's. I guess that might be an encoding problem that I'll look into. But definitely that's a different issue.

- Corrected logging levels for some entries - Added oyaml into setup.py

Version back to milaq's 1.1.0

since the upgrade to the RB uuid-API i had problems with my "old" RX-V777 using RB, tested with the lastest commits. In the past time we already had the 15 char problem with some old receivers. I tried just jonnieZG's code with my receiver and RB does work now!

I don't know why my changes are not merged into the main project, but I use it anyways since it works great, and I am not bothering with that. I will keep improving my version as I see fit and you are welcome to use it.

yphyph01 · 2021-01-28T08:40:52Z

Any news about this fix? Is it merge @milaq @jonnieZG
I've got the same error on my RX-V677 and expecting this fix ;-)
Thank you for your work

mppod · 2021-02-27T14:53:59Z

I can confirm this fixes the radio browser access error on Yamaha RX-A2010 (#77 does not) - the list of countries does not load fully though (stuck at Loading ...) - the same for other submenus under Radiobrowser->xxx->...

SpeedyGoneZales · 2021-04-10T08:01:12Z

Hello @milaq,
would there be any chance to merge this pull request?
My receiver, Marantz M-CR610, is affected, too.

Thanks.

onkelbeh · 2021-06-19T19:20:17Z

Can confirm this made it work again, have three RX-V679, and a RX-V481D.

I would really like to try the JonnieZG version of Ycast to my rx-v577

Please help

Hi,
I don't know if this is the right way to do it, but my method for testing each fork. Unfortunately none of them solved my problem.

cd /home/pi/tutorial-env/lib/python3.9/site-packages
svn --force export https://github.com/jonnieZG/YCast.git/trunk/ycast

To adapt to your directory tree.

zofman · 2021-09-06T13:31:19Z

Problem is still there..
"Failed to get Net-usb list" is the error i get when i try to browse with my computerapp ( Home remote)
"access error"on the display of the rx-v577
I can access the first category but the next category gives the error.
Hope Milaq or one of you finds a way to make the radiobrowser accessable
In the Netherlands the FM frequencies are getting removed form the air in favour of DAB+
and cableproviders no longer provide analogue FM.
So internetradio is the best option. preferably through my yamaha receiver.

After testing several builds that of jonnieZG suits me best.
To facilitate installation:
pip3 install --upgrade --force-reinstall git+https://github.com/jonnieZG/YCast
My suggestion would be to put "My Stations" before "Radiobrowser" like yay6.
Merci beaucoup!

I think there is something else going on in my network because the symptoms stay the same.

I can not estimate how good your knowledge in routing Linux ... DNS.. etc... I am happy to help over a remote session if I can.

But i'm do not Programming in Python.. But, have also a Yamaha Setup Running Fine. Mine is a Network/receiver 2.0

zofman · 2021-09-09T15:41:16Z

Thank you for you offer,
But its not worth the effort.
I manually put the stations in mystations.yml
And start saving money for a DAB receiver

Essoloani · 2021-09-09T15:55:34Z

When I got interested in YCast I didn't know anything about raspberry and even less about linux. Today I am happy with what I learned at my age.
Vtuner sent a wrong message on Hi-Tech and YCast is a great response.

Thank you both guys, milaq and jonnieZG.
Thanks to you, my old Yamaha RX-V473 can play radio again without greedy vtuner service. Also Radiobrowser seems to be much faster than vtuner.
On the milaq version ‘My Stations’ worked fine, but Radiobrowser was returning Access Error after entering category.
That problem was resolved thanks to jonnieZG effort :) On his fork, Radiobrowser work just fine on my RX-V473.
