Not a problem I'm having. I've seen something like it occasionally in the past, where changes in state (on vs. standby) on the SB3 or SBR weren't picked up by the Controller, and if I was late turning one unit on, the C. wouldn't offer it as a choice; but I haven't seen this recently.
(I do find that sync'ing the SBR with the SB3 when the latter is off (on standby) results in both playing in sync, but the SB3's display, and the Controller's status, looks like it's still off! Trying to turn the SB3 "on" actually turns it off properly, and breaks the sync. Thank heavens for the Other Players plugin, which lets me turn on the SB3 while connected to the SBR, then tell the SBR to sync with it.) I turn off my SB3 and SBR each night (at the socket), hibernate the PC that's running SC (7.1, official release), and turn off the wireless router. I used to turn off the Controller as well, but found myself always wishing it was already on when I needed it, so now just leave it on (in its cradle). Despite it losing all its SBs and then the whole damn network, when I restart the other bits next day, so far all is well. (Quite why I don't just start the controller as part of starting up everything else, I'm not sure. It just felt like every time I wanted to use it, it was off, and took longer to start up than I was prepared to wait. One problem with the bleeding-edge releases was finding the Controller wanting to update itself almost every day, just when I wanted to use it *now*!) -- Brian -- Brian Ritchie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Brian Ritchie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2319 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50859 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
