 enough.
 
Right now there is not such a feature I'm afraid.

 O.k., I purchased SqueezePlayer and Orange Squeeze now to try on my

 synchronize the Player on the phone with SoftSqueeze on my laptop OR

 same sync group one always got out of sync. 
 
 Is this a known problem? Can it be avoided somehow?

Hi wus, 
I wrote an article about synchronization on my blog:

Unfortunately in the Android world it heavily depends on the device
whether sync works or not :(

Re: [slim] Need help getting my (original) Squeezebox working on Mac

2012-12-10 Thread toby10

Should work fine.

Log into your MySqueezeBox.com account see if players show up.  Sure
your login info is correct on your players and LMS server?  You had this
working before but is now not working on a Mac?  Or you purchased the
player used and may already be connected to a different MySB account?

2012-12-10 Thread bpa

Stutter is generally caused either by CPU or Network. Assuming CPU load
on the server has been checked and found to be low.
Could it be a network problem ?  Perhaps when LMS downsamples direct to
Touch it plays as Flac but when using JRiver/Whitebear it is sent as PCM
?

Thanks to everyone who took the time to try to help.  My initial query
was in this thread since AndrewFG started it off describing his
experiments in higher resolutions.  I suppose I'll have to wait for
newer versions of Whitebear.  It's a great app, just not yet ready for
the highest resolution files.  In any case, perhaps this thread can
stand as a reference for people who have had the same issue.  I have no
doubt the smart people working on the issue will get it all sorted out
eventually.  Thanks again.

[slim] Sending tracks from iTunes to Squeezebox (mac only, uses applescript)

2012-12-10 Thread fredgoodman

I have long wanted to play tracks directly from iTunes to squeezebox,
using the command line interface. (The reason I want to do this is that
I can actually find my music in iTunes, because it has an adequate
search facility.) 

I have an applescript to do this, based on previous applescripts by A.
Schroeder and B. Mohr; for these previous scripts see
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showth..._from_-iTunes/. 

To save the script, paste the code into the applescript editor and then
save as a script in the location of your choice. You can run it from the
applescript editor or from iTunes, as indicated below.

**To use, select some tracks in iTunes, and then run the script. You
will be asked whether to play the tracks or append the list of tracks to
the current LMS playlist.

**The script can be placed in ~/Library/iTunes/Scripts and run from the
script menu in iTunes. 

**The script allows paths with any unicode characters.

**You can specify the player to be used, using the player id, which is
the MAC hardware address of the player. If you don't specify a player,
the first player on the LMS list of players will be used.

The script starts here:

-- by Alex Schroeder, kensan...@gmail.com
-- March 2008
-- by Brad Mohr, bmohr (AT) seanet (DOT) com
-- 22 January 2003
-- This script is absolutely free and may be used by anyone for any
purpose.

-- Known Limitations:
-- Currently only supports a single Squeezebox.
-- Very little error checking

-- edit these properties to match your setup.
property squeezecenter_host : localhost -- URL or IP address of the
SlimServer
property squeezecenter_port : 9090 -- server port number for the
command line interface, default is 9090
property player_id :   -- MAC address of desired player; leave blank
to use default or only player

Re: [slim] Control SlimServer _from_ iTunes

2012-12-10 Thread fredgoodman

I made a new variant on the script that I previously posted.  The new
versions allows arbitrary unicode in paths (so it's good for tracks with
titles containing accented characters, etc.).

I posted the new script to a new thread,

Re: [slim] iPeng, your iPhone Squeezebox Remote, gets even better with version 2.0!

2012-12-10 Thread pippin

No, not in iPeng Party. Well, you can, but then you'd need the full
iPeng to do so.

I am pretty sure it's not the iPhone but has something to do with your
network. Either your server doesn't accept UDP broadcasts or doesn't
reply to them properly. Something like that. My personal guess is that
the reason is that your server's address is the same as your gateway
address. You are not useing a VPN or something, right?

No idea as to why the Squeezeboxes get it right, though, they should do
the same thing.

If you can open the server's web site in Safari, you should be fine in
iPeng with the manual configuration, too.

You said you get an empty dropdown box when you tap the no player
found message in iPeng Party? Not even Music Sources in there?

I setup the network -- there's no NAT or anything on the inside.  The
gateway is the same as my Linux box because they're the same physical
machine.

I can touch Your player was not found, which opens a box that says No
Server Found and a drop down for Music Source which does nothing.

Yes. But if the gateway is the same as the server then for a client
sending a UDP broadcast, the return answer looks like it's coming from
the router and will also not really be distinguishable from the
broadcast itself so I'm not sure that this will not confuse the
discovery.

I don't know what the reason is. Usually the server discovery is pretty
much rock solid as long as UDP broadcast works and the broadcast can
reach the server.

It shouldn't.  All of my devices seem to be able to discover the server
fine (SB3 and Boom) and there are no routers between my Wi-Fi access
point and the Squeezebox server.

 I have no idea why server discovery would not work if that is the case

No idea why it's not working.  It'd be nice if I could at least specify

Well, they say that, but then they are not allowed to do it that way. So
they hide it a bit.
It works as bluegaspode writes: there's a report a problem link for
that in the confirmation mail you'll get.

If it doesn't work with the manual configuration either, mail me.
There's a link for that under Help in the App.
Also contains some diagnostics to help me see what's going on.
