Yes "natural sounds" etc is from mysqueezebox.com directly , so you would get another couple of % reliable by not fetching the alarm sound over the net.
That would probably get rid of many cases of backup sound. Radio WOL the server 5 minutes before the alarm , but many windows systems has a bug where windows actually goes to sleep rather quickly after a while if woken from the lan if "nothing happens" I think regardless of some settings. People have overcome this behavior but I don't know how . I don't have this problem. The whole alarm thing is inherited from the old SB2/SB3 etc these players are very very slim and do not even have a clock . So the whole thing had to run from the server just like everything else on these players. Soo here the origin of the serverbased alarm handling. Date and time screensaver is in fact plugin actually so the origin can be some entusiastic 3'rd party developer ? So they just got the new players to use the same mechanism. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE rear ch.
