MediaServer has a free sister-skill called LMS-lite that uses exactly the same account-linking and setup process to add all your players to the Alexa app as smart home devices. There have been some changes that you may need to use. Scroll to post 412 for a summary. If you are only using the Touch for plaback then you do not need the Spotify Protocol Handler plugin that is mentioned. You just add the Spotify app on MSB.com and add your credentials, then add the Spotify Plugin in LMS(not Triodes).

I've been working on an app to enable Homey to control Squeezeboxes. As far as I know (from searching the forum) no one else is currently working on this so I thought it would be a good idea to start a topic to track progress and let people know that we should soon be able to call for music throughout our Squeezebox enabled houses
I plan to release something soon that does very basic things, such as allow room specific play / pause and playlist selection (I currently have it doing this at home here). Other functionality will follow incrementally but I'll try and finish up and get something in place quickly even if it only does a little to start with

- Sounds like a nice addition for me, when I get my Homey 3 Squeezebox Radio's and one Receiver still used every day here
- I use the HTTP app for some basic Squeezebox things, but an app would be awesome!
- If you can get this working, I might buy a Squeezebox too
- edited June 2016im curious of the current status, rly looking forward to this.
Edit,
fyi using raspberry pi 3 with touchscreen, with picoreplayer image (free jivelite support)
I can't get the volume up to work? I can get volume down but volume up command seems to set the volume and not increment it. Any ideas?I use the HTTP app for some basic Squeezebox things, but an app would be awesome!
Have you managed to increment volume up by any chance?I've been working on an app to enable Homey to control Squeezeboxes.

Watch this space!- I will put some work into getting *something* up in the next week or so (I got distracted playing with a Honeywell 868MHz doorbell and homey!). I hadn't done volume stuff yet but I will pop that in too. Confident I can make it work - I'm using the CLI / JSON interface to communicate which is (I believe) how the SqueezeServer interface itself communicates with the back end.

and volume down seems to work with:
http://ip_logitech_media_server:9000/status.html?p0=mixer&p1=volume&p2=-5&player=mac_address_player
but strangley volume up only sets the volume to the level of 5 (and doesnt seem to increment it) - Its driving me nuts:
http://ip_logitech_media_server:9000/status.html?p0=mixer&p1=volume&p2=+5&player=mac_address_player- edited June 2016I get the same thing on mine... could be a bug - will let you know if i have any issues with the app or whether I get it working. As a pointer, might be worth trying the BUTTON command with 'volume_up' and 'volume_down' as a workaround? Not as flexible but might get you going if it works...
Scratch that - it's a URL encoding issue. Try substituting '+' for '%2B'. '+' is reserved in the query string.

http://ip_logitech_media_server:9000/status.html?p0=mixer&p1=volume&p2=%2B5&player=mac_address_player- I guess some 1 bailed on this project,
any 1 else able to make a squeeze box app to controle the player? - There's no code at https://github.com/mtudor/HomeySqueezebox, only a readme... I do have a Squeezebox Radio but still some work to do on my Marantz app
- Hi guys, sorry, I've not bailed! I'm still here. Life just got in the way for a bit. I'll get the code I have up next week and that way if anyone else wants to help out there's that option. Otherwise am happy to keep developing based on a requested features first basis!
- Good to hear from u, basicly all im looking for is a way to start (push play) and pauze or standby.
Sometimes life can be challenging or give some surprises, lol.Hi guys, sorry, I've not bailed! I'm still here. Life just got in the way for a bit.

Upload your code somewhere and I'm sure I, or someone else, will help out.- @MarcelKuijper Brilliant. It can do that already
@RobinVanKekem Thanks for the moral support - Great info above removed the dust from my SB controller . Looking forward to a proper app but as an intermediate solution i got playlist url's working & in combination with the Spotify plugin (2.3.9) which can be activated in the SB center. The following URL works as http workflow starting a spotify playlist. http://ip_logitech_media_server:9000/status.html?p0=playlist&p1=play&p2=spotify:user:spotify:playlist:7udrtYN1uLn7KHbObVyOa5&player=MAC ADDRESS PLAYER
The spotify URL are listed in SB center under details however just shortly tested hence not sure how permanent the links are.
Thumbs up!!Hi guys, sorry, I've not bailed! I'm still here. Life just got in the way for a bit. I'll get the code I have up next week and that way if anyone else wants to help out there's that option. Otherwise am happy to keep developing based on a requested features first basis!
I have a Squeezeserver on my Synology NAS (using port 9002). So I like your intention to get this working.
Just some suggestions:
For those who don't own a Synology NAS device, you can easy setup a Squeezeserver with XPEnology (Synology virtual machine). For those who don't own a Squeeze device you can use an Android App called Squeeze Player
The official Logitech support is absolute. For Android devices you can use Squeezer instead for controlling.- Just trying to pull this together into something I can get on the git repo for you guys to try out. IT will be rough and ready but allow you guys to create Flows. But after September 19th I have a lot more free time so should be able to develop further.
- I also have an SqueezeBox/Logitech Media Server (LMS).
I can help in expanding the app and testing.
Really like to connect Homey to my LMS but thought it would be to much time lost starting all over - Thanks @RobinVanKekem, appreciate the support. I really do want to do more on this as the Squeezeboxes are my primary music system and Homey is becoming more and more integrated in my life! Just lack of time this summer. Post Sept 19th I should be much more available.
In the meantime, though, we have a release! I've pushed a working (I hope) version of the app to my GitHub and also submitted it to the App Store for approval (hopefully that will only take a couple of days). For anyone that can't wait, you should be able to download from the GitHub repo and push to your homey using the athom-cli.
Currently you can do the following: Play, Pause, Volume, Play a Playlist (with nifty auto complete). You can target these at a specific device only. Multiple device control and synchronization is not yet implemented (along with a lot of other functionality, lol). Should keep you all going though I hope!
Enjoy and hope it works well for people - feel free to feed back, vote for features etc. etc. - Great work @mtudor ;
I hope to check it out tonight to see if all is fine.
If I find something, could I do Github Pull Requests or are you currently developing on your machine which could collide with my (future) PR's? - Found the repository:
https://github.com/mtudor/HomeySqueezebox - @RobinVanKekem PRs are fine - we use git at work so I'm well versed in dealing with collaboration and merging etc. I will create a develop branch that you can PR against.
Great!@RobinVanKekem PRs are fine - we use git at work so I'm well versed in dealing with collaboration and merging etc. I will create a develop branch that you can PR against.
I have limited knowledge of PR's but I manage.
Hah, no worries, we can work it out.

I have limited knowledge of PR's but I manage.- Already begun on changing the pairing process so you enter your IP address there instead of in app settings
- Did a lot of coding for this.
Hit me up on DM before you start so we can review my code first.

I'm happy to announce Spotty, my next generation Spotify implementation
for Squeezebox. Spotty has no dependency on mysqueezebox.com, nor player
firmware, and supports all types of players. It is using the open-source
librespot library (https://github.com/plietar/librespot) instead of the
soon to be defunct libspotify.
Once you've installed Spotty from the plugins repository, you can safely
un-install all other Spotify related plugins (official plugin, Triode's
3rd party plugin, Spotify Protocol Handler), as well as remove the
Spotify app from your mysqueezebox.com account. Then go to
Settings/Advanced/Spotty and follow the instructions.
On platforms other than Windows you should be able to authorize the
plugin using your mobile or desktop Spotify application. On Windows
unfortunately you'll have to enter username/password (which are NOT
stored in LMS).
Spotty should run on MacOS, Windows (needs MS VC 2015 runtime!), and
many Linux flavors (i686, x86_64, ARM HF & SF). It's known to run
perfectly well on eg. Raspberry Pi 2/3. Unfortunately many NAS devices
using ARMEL CPUs won't be supported (eg. ReadyNAS Duo/NX v2, some of the
cheaper Synology devices). I'm currently running it on a piCorePlayer
setup on Pi3, connected to the aforementioned ReadyNAS Duo v2 - and it's
so much more faster than the NAS alone, it's worth it :-).
Have fun!
