From the error it looks like it doesn't like the name for some reason. You might want to try renaming the speakers in the Bluetooth Preferences. Just right click on it.

Actually upon closer look:

update: adding to newKnownSpeakers for id: ID-ACBC3270262E value: (u'Apple TV', u'connected')
update: JBL Flip 2 (00-1d-df-6f-c0-05:output) - Connected: 0
update: adding to newKnownSpeakers for id: ID-00-1d-df-6f-c0-05:output value: (u'JBL Flip 2', u'disconnected')
Update failed. Check to see if Airfoil is functioning c

It's probably the id. None of the others include '-'. Not sure if you can do anything about that or not though.

I tried as you suggested and changed the name from JBP Flip 2 to JBL. The name in Airfoil was not updated, still JBL FLip 2, even after restart, and the error in Indigo Airfoil is still the same.

If I try to output speaker list to Indigo log with bluetooth speaker connected I get the following:

Code: Select all

  Airfoil                         No speakers available

If I do the same with the bluetooth speaker disconnected I get

Code: Select all

  Airfoil                         Current Speaker List:
    Speaker: Krithe AirPort Express ID: 28CFE981147F
    Speaker: mini ID: A82066124310
    Speaker: Apple TV ID: ACBC3270262E
    Speaker: Computer ID: com.rogueamoeba.airfoil.LocalSpeaker

Conclusion is that it might be related to the ID as you say and that the Airfoil plugin either doesn't handle such IDs or doesn't handle bluetooth speakers.

The current Airfoil plugin works with everything available in Airfoil 4.x. We're going to introduce a new Airfoil Pro plugin with Indigo 7 that will have several improvements, including full Airfoil 5 compatibility. It's pretty much a rewrite.

[jay (support)]

We're testing a fix for the bluetooth problem in Airfoil 5 and the current Airfoil plugin. I'll post more when we finish testing.

On day 2 of my Trial, I had Airfoil 5.01 installed. it seems to work nicely with the Indigo software.

On day 4 of my testing, I went ahead, and purchased the Indigo software PRO.

Airfoil did an upgrade to 5.02, and I can not longer get Airfoil to work with Indigo. Airfoil alone still works fine.

The log in Indigo states this:

update: airfoil.isrunning() is returning false. Check to see if Airfoil is functioning correctly and that there is only a single copy of the application on your hard drive.
Airfoil Error update: airfoil.isrunning() is returning false. Check to see if Airfoil is functioning correctly and that there is only a single copy of the application on your hard drive.

I uninstalled every folder of Airfoil on my system. I even tried installing Airfoil version 4.92.

Same results. Please let me know how to resolve this.

Thanks!

I'll try and have a play today; I haven't had chance yet.

Are you positive when you downloaded the new Airfoil app, you replaced the old one with the new one? It seems quite coincidental that the problem happened right after you upgraded Airfoil. I just confirmed that it's working with 5.0.2 on my system. Did you happen to add any bluetooth speakers?

Hi,

Yes - Last night,
(in this order)

uninstalled Airfoi
uninstalled Indigo
re-installed Airfoil
re-installed Indigo
Tried the demo database with Airfoil, no luck
connected back with my Database, no luck
Airfoil works fine
Indigo has no airfoil variables
Ingigo cannot see any airfoil speakers
Indigo cannot see any airfoil applications

Please see attached PNG file for visual confirmation that these items work , and exist in Airfoil...

I am no MAC expert, and not sure what else to try.

Thanks for the help

I'm having a similar problem with Airfoil 5.0.2 and 1.1.11 of the plugin. I only have the computer and airplay speakers setup. Searched the drive and no other copies of Airfoil running. Adding a screen shot showing version of Airfoil. I'm not sure if this just happened with the 10.11.4 update or when Airfoil was updated. I looked at my logs before the update this morning and saw this message:

I know. I shouldn't have updated OS X so fast......

Jay -

A million apologies!

When I checked for multiple copies of Airfoil, and deleted them from where they appeared to have been installed in \downloads,

and after searching several times on THIS MAC, it found only the one version.

Well, while poking around , I found a hidden folder library\applications or \application support, that I would find almost a dozen copies that did not show in the previous searched. Deleted them all...

Problem Solved...

Interestingly, after deleting all copies, and reinstalling , somehow my application remained, which tells me , that somewhere, some remnants of Airfoil configuration was still left behind... The Mac is a bit if a mystery to me in some regards, but after 5+ years of not reinstalling windows, I can't complain at all...

for all non mac experts like myself, and to possibly avoid additional support requests on this, it may be helpful to post a wiki on how to search for all Airfoil copies in the airfoil forum..

Thanks for trying to help me through it

This problem is completely unrelated to the other problem. The Python library that the plugin uses to talk to Airfoil is failing for some reason. I'll update and see if I can reproduce the error.

I just updated and everything is working for me.

-43 is a Mac OS X error code that means file not found. I wonder if there's something wrong/odd with your Airfoil installation - basically, it's trying to match a process to the application path, but it thinks the application file doesn't exist. So something is definitely wrong. You might want to try to run disk utility and repair anything it finds that's wrong with the disk.

A quick note for my own Airfoil problems. I also found that the Airfoil install was putting a copy of the application in ~/Library/Application Support. I deleted the entire folder ( ~/Library/Application Support/Airfoil) and all my issues went away.
