Anyway this is another Story.
Reproducing the issue:
2 Computer running SJ V3.04 with the standard Skin and the Networking_v02.dll, properly configured as master / slave. (Master is XP Slave is WIN7, both german)
Sharing the same playlist, after a few seconds after polling or update of the playlist the error:
"Line 1: SyntaxError: line 1: unexpected character '\u0002' "
occurs periodically on the slave.
Changing master/slave configuration from one to the other round will bring the error to the other System which is now the slave. Means for me XP or WIN7 doesn't matter.
Maybe there is a Workaround hiding the message at all.
By running SJ V2.74 on the slave, (Master remains SJ V3.04) you don't see this error, but this older version has too many other issues like playlist is always scrolling up and down.
It would be great if you can keep an eye on that may fix it or may have an idea for a work around to hide the error message at all whithin the playlist.
Background:
I would like to use the slaves on a party to allow the guests to enter their Songs as a whishlist to be played and monitored by the DJ at the master unit.
would be grear to hear from you.

I guess by "that issue" you mean the "unexpected character '\u0002'" bug? Nobody ever explained how to reproduce and I couldn't, so no: never looked into it since October 2013.
Let's face it: last post from SJ_Team was over a year ago. It was fun while it lasted and Silverjuke is still a very usable piece of software (I wonder if it would work on win8 or soon win9...), but the only sign of life is that someone apparently still keeps paying for this server and bandwidth. Not even sure if that is a conscious decision or just a forgotten creditcard quietly being charged.
Cheers,

I think I never tested playlists
But unfortunatly this is beyond simple debugging, and to be honest installing a C-compiler and diving into this is just too much work for me right now. Which for the time being means: sorry, this won't be fixed

with summer almost here I dusted off the old client pc & set it up in the garden this bank holiday weekend for a bbq.
everything seems to work fine with regards the remote control when adding 1 track to my playlist at a time, until I tried to queue up a pre-saved playlist consisting of 100+ songs.....
the playlist works fine if I start it with the master PC but when the client PC mimics the playlist it displays all of the tracks for a brief moment, then reduces down before my eyes to anywhere between 10 - 40 track.
Then with the remaining tracks of the playlist queued up, any interaction via the client causes the master to then reduce down to the same amount of tracks displayed on the client & begins skipping through the playlist for a few seconds of each song in a seemingly random order....
The only way to stop the cycle is to pause the track & delete the playlist.
Any reason a playlist can't be used via the remote control?
Thanks

haha, I'll probably avoid inserting foliage into my speaker jack. I can probably live with just leaving the headphones plugged in & neatly curled up with the sound muted on the pc. At least now I have the remote control feature working & my world is complete.
I've had a look at some of the other mods that you've created over the years, you've made some really great additions to an already fantastic program! I particularly like the "play similar according to last fm" tool. really really great work.
Thanks

There you have one of the nice human friendly improvements of modern software. If there is no speaker connected, you do not have a valid output...
> So I guess I will have to leave a set of head phones plugged in & mute the sound on the client PC unless you can think of a setting that doesn't require speakers for it to work?
I do have a very basic sideways improved out of the box solution for you: put in a 3.5mm non-connected plug. Or an unused spare something-to-3.5mm adapter. Or even a 3.5mm twig from your garden. (All based on the assumption it uses a mechanical switch to detect the headphones and no electrical test.)
> Is there anything that can be changes in playback/devices?
Well, no. Silverjuke seemingly cannot work without output. And the only thing my plugin does is sync two standalone Silverjukes over the network. By muting one, you can pretend it is the remote control for the other...
So I don't (and can't) do anything smart with devices or outputs.

Thanks for replying. following your advise I tried to run my client machine without networking it & got the same errors. after a little bit of experimenting I plugged a set of head phones into the speaker jack and hey presto the problems solved. It seems that I cant use silverjuke without having speakers physically plugged in. So I guess I will have to leave a set of head phones plugged in & mute the sound on the client PC unless you can think of a setting that doesn't require speakers for it to work? Is there anything that can be changes in playback/ devices?
Thanks again

These looks like a normal Silverjuke error, not related to the remote control. It just says your audio output is in use. You should be able to run vanilla Silverjuke on both machines at the same time no problem before starting out using this plugin.
Just for clarity: you are not running teamviewer with this remote plugin at the same time? The plugin is an alternative for remote software like teamviewer, VNC etc. If you use both I can image teamviewer piping audio (at least I guess it can) to the other machine and locking the audio output.

I discovered SJ about a week ago and with the help of team viewer it fitted the bill for what I wanted to do but discovering this mod just makes it perfect!!
Unfortunately though I cant get it to work... Hoping you can offer some advise?
I have SJ 2.74 installed on 2 pc's. One is my main PC with my music library on a seperate drive ( drive E:) this will be my server,
The other i want to behave as the client.
my E: drive is set to share with EVERYONE and when I add the E: drive as the directory on the client it accepts it and fills my library.
I have your network_v02.dll file in both SJ folders on both machines & have left the network settingson the server as the default settings (master).
The client is set as a slave also with the default port, refresh & poll settings & i have entered the server computers name into the server name field.
I then que up some music on the server & start it playing then head to the client, I open SJ on the client and it shows me whats playing on the server
in the playlist but almost immediately I get a continually growing list of messages in the console with the details repeatedly saying
"cannot open default output, playback error 23 & 0ms needed to free 2181k of 2282k (10794 of 12298 blocks)"
Any ideas? I really hope I can get this resolved, I've been searching for this exact setup for years. really appreciate the effort thats goes into this type of stuff.
Thanks
Dan

I don't know what to do. Try this on different systems with different OS.
But allways the same error!
Any solution for that?
Thank you in advanced!
