Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

node-red-contrib-twonky

This collection can be used to read media on a Twonky server and control playback of various devices compatible with DLNA/UPNP.

General Concept

A "Server" is the Twonky server itself which not only contains media for playback, but a list of all devices on the network that could be discovered. A "Renderer" is a playback device and can handle video,audio, or both.

  • Discover of playback devices is a function of Twonky itself. This collection only pulls in the items Twonky already knows about.

Quick Start

  1. Install the package using [Manage palette] on the hamburger icon at top right.
  2. Again using the hamburger icon, select [Import] then [Examples]. Expand the [node-red-contrib-twonky] entry. Select [Buiild queue from container] and click [Import].
  3. Click [Deploy].
  4. There will now be a demonstration flow on your palette showing basics of polling and controlling a system. Note that all Twonky servers use unique IDs so the example will not work until your own server is configured.

Feel free to tag the author shown below in the official Node-RED forums or email if any help is needed. If sending email, be sure to include "node-red-contrib-twonky" in the subject to ensure the spam filters don't block it.

Release Notes

WARNING: Due to some structural backend changes, many list and control nodes may need to be manually updated to get them to work with this version. Most likely the type and topic will need to be reselected.

1.2.0

NEW FEATURES

  • Added new UI functionality to accommodate media searches of the server.
  • Added ability to show item count on the palette for the list node.
  • A bookmark used as an incoming message topic can now be the friendly name, such as "Living Room TV".
  • Added option to automatically clear palette status messages after a short while.
  • Added ability to show search result count on the palette.
  • The "Renderer" topic type available in selectors has been split into two distinct types for clarity: "Audio renderer" and "Video renderer". There is no functional difference.
  • Changes to the main bookmark list now show immediately in other dialogs without having to close and reopen them.

FIXES

  • Fixed manual bookmark entry functionality.
  • Small graphical changes.

1.1.0

NEW FEATURES

  • The UI and collection have been vastly overhauled for simplicity.
  • Compatibility with Node-RED 4.x confirmed.

KNOWN ISSUES

  • The option to clear palette status messages shows in the UI but is not functional at this time.

Additional Resources

Basic contextual help is available in Node-RED itself. Links to official Twonky API documents can be found there as well.

The following devices and platforms are used in testing:

  • Twonky Media Server 8.5.2
  • Yamaha Aventage RX-A2070 receiver (renderer testing)
  • LG OLED TV (renderer testing)

Note: Due to time constraints, testing is not possible with all potential function attribute combinations. Results vary greatly by device type.
