Timechange on Raspberry pi

[dzasa]

ON raspberry pi 2, jessie version event Time is not fired because "A:" time change is sent to SDTERR instead of STDOUT so changing code like below, makes it better :)

onError: function(error) {
        if(this.options.debug) {
            console.log('stderr: ' + error);
        }

        data = error.toString();

        if(data.indexOf('A:') > -1) {
            var timeStart, timeEnd, time;

            if(data.indexOf(' V:') !== -1) {
                timeStart = data.indexOf(' V:') + 3;
                timeEnd = data.indexOf(' A-V:');
            } else {
                timeStart = data.indexOf('A:') + 2;
                timeEnd = data.indexOf(' (');
            }

            time = data.substring(timeStart, timeEnd).trim();

            this.emit('timechange', time)
        }
    }

Any update on that? I'm having the same issue on Raspberry pi2! That's the only way you can check if the player is still working on a file in case you don't get other event and no sound is playing, so that would be great to have it working :)

I'll look at it when I have some free time :) Wasn't a priority since I'm only using this to play radio streams on RPi (no need for timechange event) :)

No worries :)
