No problem, it has been a good distraction during a stressful time, purely a mental exercise for me!
Yeah it's not 100% on the view changing even with Confluence unfortunately (although I'd say about 95% of the time) - if you check the log, the call is always made, but I think it depends on where it is on the screen drawing cycle as to whether it gets respected (and it has to be called after all the nodes are added to the list). Also, if you have previously visited an artist, it stubbornly remembers the old visit setting it seems...
Although, with T! and other skins, it may also be them using other IDs for the views, in which case it won't work. If you can work out the IDs and let me know I can probably put appropriate testing code in...there's usually a ViewsFileMode.xml or similar to look in (this is the ones plugns can use as far as I can tell). I can have it trigger any view ID in there.
The album info is retrieved via the CLI (so telnet basically) - I think that's about as fast as anything, really, very little overhead there - and LMS doesn't use MySQL anymore, rather sqlite I think - either way talking to it directly is frowned upon and would complicate setup quite a bit. But each album needs a separate call (the list is done in one call, but to get the cover URLs etc, I need a call per album). I may do a paginated thing at some point, but I kinda like having them all there so I can 'sms' to a random number and choose from there...agreed, though, it takes a while - I will add a message/warning about that in the next version
(PS it's pathetic but you can +1 the reputation button if you feel so inclined
[RELEASE][ALPHA] XSqueeze - Squeezebox control in XBMC, local playback w. Squeezeplay - bossanova808 - 2012-05-14 15:08
Ok Internet radio is working in Chooser now. Just years, apps and favorites to go if I can keep up the motivation...
And then I think I will be pretty much done with my plans... Unless a nice python slimproto or headless squeezeplay comes along, both of which would allow new things...

0.5.2 pushed with support in Chooser for Years, Favourites, Radios and Apps (although very few apps will stream to a software player unfortunately).

I just wanted to thank you for your work on this, and to let you know it does have (normally pretty silent) users

Telnet on the qNap is enabled.

No immediate ideas - can you pastebin a debug log of a basic session?
What about in the chooser (hit info on your remote).
Actually, it might be some sort of foreign characters in paths issues I have read about - what are all the paths etc involved?

(I've fixed the audio output chooser bug mentioned somewhere above too, so now is a good time to get any bug reports in before I push out a new version!)
...and just by the by on my new build, XSqueeze is seriously fast.....thinks it's the gigabet ethernet and faster CPU....

Now that's just showing off
Very nice

Pushed out 0.5.3 with the fix for choosing audio outputs...
