Re: [slim] feature request: file vs track calculator
One thought is couldn't the scanner report unscanable files after a full scan ? The report should be so a human can read them. file blabla.flac with url mnt\music\... etc is not committed to db check your file/tag. But i can see complications as SC is guessing tags on filenames and folder when no valid tag is found, so some files IS in the DB but probably has flawed tags etc. So this feature should have a limited scoope if requested. The criteria for weeding out a bad file could get complicated. But if limited to only files that is not included in track count then I'm positive to idea. It wont solve all problems but it seems not to complicated to do (says an complete amateur with out any perl skills ;-) ). -- Mnyb Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49429 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

complicated to do (says an complete amateur with out any perl skills
;-) ).
without writing code:
extract all file-url's from the db
(ie, 'select url from tracks where audio')
use Find::File and get all files from filesystem
compare the two. Not hard if you store one of the lists as a hash
based
on filename (ie, if ($exists($db{$filename}))
The only really annoying trick is the unescaping special characters,
but that isn't really a problem in perl.

Copy everything to external drives - 4 x 500Gb external drives would only cost around £200; 1GB drives might be a bit more pricey. 2. Backup to tape - LTO3 is 400GB/tape; this options is more costly than using external hard drives. The NTFS permissions were set to prevent operator error trashing the library! You're probably better of making everything read-only, including files, and changing permissions explicitly when you want to change anything; I don't imagine you change your library all that often - I certainly don't.

[slim] How do I split up a collection in Windows
I'm on a Vista PC. My hdd is partitioned into C and D drives. Drive C is full so I want to split the music between C and D drives. I've read that I can point SqueezeCenter to search in multiple folders/disks by creating subfolders/linking, so that the SC will searching C will find the link to D, and also include searching for music there. Someone also suggests splitting the collection alphabetically for example a-m n-z. In SqueezeCenter I can sort by artist, by album, genres etc. In Windows, however, when I try to sort, the files are presorted into a-f, g-l, m-r, etc. In addition there are music files, textfiles, and imagefiles, and therefore the sorting will get mixed up. For example Neil Young will be be found under N, while the album Live at Massey Hall will be found under the letter L. If I drag all of Neil Young into the subfolder N-Z, I wonder where the Live at Massey Hall album will end up? Does anyone know if this confuses Squeeze Center, or whether this does not present any problem to SC? How do I split the collection under Windows? What are the actual steps?

I've read that I can point SqueezeCenter to search in multiple folders/disks by creating subfolders/linking, so that the SC will searching C will find the link to D, and also include searching for music there. Someone also suggests splitting the collection alphabetically for example a-m n-z. In SqueezeCenter I can sort by artist, by album, genres etc. In Windows, however, when I try to sort, the files are presorted into a-f, g-l, m-r, etc. In addition there are music files, textfiles, and imagefiles, and therefore the sorting will get mixed up. For example Neil Young will be be found under N, while the album Live at Massey Hall will be found under the letter L. If I drag all of Neil Young into the subfolder N-Z, I wonder where the Live at Massey Hall album will end up? Does anyone know if this confuses Squeeze Center, or whether this does not present any problem to SC? How do I split the collection under Windows? What are the actual steps?

Re: [slim] How do I split up a collection in Windows
lets say you have a directory on C: called music...and then directories under that for each artist/album.. so you have c:\Music\The Beatles\Abbey Road\ c:\Music\The Beatles\The White Album\ c:\Music\Neil Young\On The Beach\ c:\Music\Neil Young\Harvest\ That's the way most people do it. Now you want to move (say) just the Harvest album to D: Create a folder d:\Music (or whatever - doesn't matter what it is called) move c:\Music\Neil Young\Harvest\(all files) to d:\Music\Neil Young\Harvest\ in the folder c:\music, put a (Windows) shortcut to d:\music set your Squeezecentre Music Folder to C:\Music Clear and rescan everything Done! You can split artists across drives without a problem, but you might find it easier to manage things if you go for a logical split...artsist a-L on one drive or whatever. SC uses the tags in the files to organise your music - you do have everything tagged properly, don't you?. If not, stop now and sort that out first! -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...SB3+Stontronics PSU - Altmann JISCO/UPCI - TACT RCS 2.2X with Good Vibrations S/W - MF X-DAC V3/X-PSU/X-10 buffer (Audiocomm full mods)- Linn 5103 - Linn Aktiv 5.1 system (6x LK140's, ESPEK/TRIKAN/KATAN/SEIZMIK 10.5), Townsend Supertweeters, Kimber Chord cables Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49494 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] How do I split up a collection in Windows
Thanks Phil, Well, perhaps Vista is too sophisticated, or I'm too new to it, because when I explore the C: drive it shows the files as C:/Music and then it just lists them by song number - artist - song - album.filetype. I had EAC autotag them accordingly when I ripped them as flac files based on recommendations. It seemed as good as any other way of tagging them at the time. I haven't used any external tagging program, or processed the files after ripping. So when I sort the files in Windows by name, they are sorted by all number 01's first, 02's next etc. If I try to sort them differently they end up as A-F as stated earlier. So I guess I must have tagged them in a very non-helpful way then. I understood this tagging to be useful since it would list songs in order by album. Any further clarification appreciated. -- dbrotzen dbrotzen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16218 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49494 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Include Server Power Off function in SC
Yikes ! it was just an idea... ? thank you for your opinion. Maybe i should have done in the form of a poll ? Another solution would to resurect the plugin and make it work in 7.1-7.3 and SBC. The existing plugin just works in SB3 menu you need ir or retrobrowser to use it, i use the ir emulator in SBC to turn my server of from the living room. I was just thinking about the poor sods that have their dedicated server in the garage the attic etc. My current situation is such that i can manage without it, I just like it. If it still was a plugin it could easily be disabled. Or if included as a plugin in the standard release, it could be made disabled per default ? Anyone who wants it have to turn it on.

[slim] Features of Sansa Connect that Squeezebox Duet Should Have
I just upgraded from a Sansa Connect (which I used primarily for Launchcast Plus internet radio) to a Squeezebox Duet, and I love it. However, there are some things that were a little easier with the Sansa I believe SlimDevices/Logitech could adopt for the Squeezebox Duet (some of these things aren't on the Sansa either, but I would like to see them on the Squeezebox anyway): - It is too easy to overshoot with the scroll wheel, IMO, and there's a weird lag between when the wheel starts to turn and the selection bar moves up or down. - Scrolling with the wheel during playback should make the playlist menu appear, or if there is no playlist playing; then the Favorites menu should appear. - I would love it if I could get my customized Launchcast Plus station on the Squeezebox. If Yahoo! and Rhapsody could hook up, maybe there's hope for us Squeezebox owners? - Rhapsody channels should have descriptions appear automatically after a delay. For example, a truncated description could appear in a notification bar at the bottom of the screen and clicking the center button would pull the description full screen. - A quick shortcut to add to favorites (double click the + key, for example). - Instant playlists: Make a mix based on current artist/track. - Make mixes of streams that can be added to favorites. - Lists of Rhapsody channels should include sample album art and artists with each channel without extra menu navigation. - Make it clearer in settings which are for the controller and which are for the receiver. - The layout of squeezenetwork should be customizable. Browsing Rhapsody, for example, requires a lot of scrolling to the bottom half of the page. - Hide unwanted items from appearing in controller for faster navigation. I can already anticipate that some will view one or more of these suggestions as a change for the worse, so in those cases, making the change an option would be best, I feel.

Re: [slim] Title Format Comment not working correctly for MusicIP playlist in web UI
OK, I see your point. I would like to propose, obviously, that this be changed. :) I would prefer that it display everywhere as it does on the right side of the screen and on the hardware, with just the information defined in the Title Format. However, I can see that for people that have their Title Formats with only Track Names and no album or artist information, that change would be annoying for them (though they'd only have to go in to the Title Format and add the additional information - the upgrade script could even do that automatically). Ah well, I guess I'll just ignore it - I don't use the web UI very often anyways. -- jbmccune jbmccune's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15254 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49469 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

You can try changing line 53 in version 1 to be the same as is RC4. Line 53 (v1.0) looks like: ConnectString3 = ;Port=9092;Database=slimserver;UID=slimserver;Password=slimserver;Option=3 Change the Password=slimserver to Password= so you effectively leave the password blank.

I can understand if one waits for the release version of 7.1 before finalizing a new plugin -- Mnyb Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49497 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Using TCP with the Controller
Hi - I want a duet to use my squeezecenter server from a remote location. This is working fine by opening ports 9000 and 3483 in my router, but I don't like having open ports like this. Basically I always access my network through SSH. Unfortunately, it seems that the controller is using UDP to access the server and of course, as SSH cannot tunnel UDP, this does not work . I'm surprised because I thought that now the slim protocol was TCP-based (since version 5 or something like that). I've checked my configuration with SoftSqueeze which implements the TCP version, and everything is running fine, I'm able to access my home server using a SSH tunnel with PUTTY on the client.(I don't use the built-in SSH in SoftSqueeze because my SSH server @ home is not running on the same machine than the squeezecenter server and doing additional port forwarding on my SSH server + gatewayports is not convenient). Any idea how to force the controller to use the TCP version of the protocol ? Thanks PS : I'd like to avoid doing the complicated UDP-TCP-UDP bridge to mascarade UDP forwarding on the client, so this is not my preferred option -- philippe_44 philippe_44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17261 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49505 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

I believe the Server Power Off plugin was Windows only. Remember that anything in SqueezeCenter has to be cross-platform.

Re: [slim] 7.0.1 would crash 30-50 seconds after start
Yes Phil, that was my post as well. First with 7.0 and now with 7.0.1, I cannot run the server. I tried to search for similar problems described in the forum. While some come close to mine, no solution seems to be working. Then I tried to downgrade to 6.5.4. Well, it starts fine now but it cannot see all the music in my iTunes library. (I run iTunes 7.6.2 (9)). All music files are on the local drive of the machine where the server is running. This has been a heck of a frustrating experience. One day, SlimServer tells me that there is a new version and prompts me to install it. I do so (version 7) and it wont start any more. I downgrade to what worked before and can't find the music anymore. In the meantime I am staring at $1,000 worth of squeezeboxes around the house that sit dark and useless. It's quite frustrating. -- lgreco lgreco's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17147 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49493 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Disappointment on Slim Devices On-line Store.
1) On 2 June, I placed my third order in Slimdevice On-line Store 2) Since Duet was in back-order, I received an email saying that I need to wait about 3 weeks. 3) I replied Slim Device an email saying that I wish to keep my order and wait. 4) On 20 June, I received an email saying my order was confirmed. (Since the status of Duet in On-line Store was no longer back-order, so I think they will ship my order soon) 5) I wait until 29 June, no email on shipping details (like the Tracking code) of my order. So I sent Slim Devices an email. 6) An incident in Slim Devices was created on my order and I received an email on 30 June saying that there is some problem on my billing address. 7) On the same day I sent them an email asking on the details of the problem, cause the information on two orders I placed before were just the same with the new one (same credit card, same billing shipping address). In addition, I tell them I wish to keep my order. 8) NO RESPONSE FROM SLIM DEVICES SINCE THEN. I kept on update the incident on DAILY basis and asking for update. MY 2 CENTS Stop using that support system for customer to check their order, this kind of system may be good for technical support, but not order tracking. Hire some customer service staff to answer the phone. Details of My Incident Re: Slim Devices Order Confirmation (1213981236-591) Discussion Thread *** Customer (Ronald Ng)06/29/2008 07:58 PM My order number is 1213981236-591 May I know when my order will be shipped. I ordered Squeezebox Duet + extra receiver in early June. Since Duet was out 0f stock, I received an email saying that I need to wait until late June. In 21 Jun, I received the attached email, I thought duet in-stock again and my order would be shipped soon. But 10 days were gone, I neither received the package nor received the tracking code for shipment. From your online store, I know that there is no need to back-order duet. May I know that status of my order? Have it been shipped. The reason why I order from on-line store and pay for delivery cost is because duet was not available in Hong Kong when I place my on-line order in early June. But Duet was available in store in Hong Kong last week. I can get it easily in Hong Kong now, with a cheaper price tag and without the expensive shipping cost. Hope you understand my disappointment on my order. *** Response (Matt P.) 06/30/2008 01:59 PM Hi Ronald, First of all let me apologize for the delay.There was a problem with the billing address on your order so it had not shipped. You sghould have received an email about this but I am guessing you never did.Would you like me to ship this order or would prefer to purchase a unit in Hong Kong and save on shipping? If so let me know and I will cancel this order and the associated charegs. Once again I apologize for the delay just le me know how to proceed. Regards, Matt Parry Logiotech SMBU Inside Sales (650)210-9400 X 5720 *** Customer (Ronald Ng)06/30/2008 06:59 PM I wish to keep the order and please ship it to me AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Cause I just check the store in Hong Kong yesterday, it is out of stock again. May I know what is the problem of my billing address? It is the third order I placed in Slimdevice, the billing address, shipping address and credit card number were the same for all orders. (My recent order in April this year (Invoice Number: 1207193750-470)) I never have a problem on my billing address before and I don't think it is the problem. *** Customer (Ronald Ng)07/01/2008 05:09 PM Any update? *** Customer (Ronald Ng)07/02/2008 09:44 AM Any update? x 2 *** Customer (Ronald Ng)07/02/2008 04:15 PM NO RESPONSE FOR 3 DAYS??

Re: [slim] Using TCP with the Controller
I saw this using ethereal when I was trying to analyze what was going wrong. You might be very right that it is just used for discovery, the problem is that I even cannot pass this stage because once I did enter the IP address of my PuTTY client as the squeezecenter ID, the first thing the controller does is probing it using UDP and as it does not work, it will not go beyond -- philippe_44 philippe_44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17261 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49505 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Using TCP with the Controller
As radish says you shouldn't need UDP. It will try to discover servers using UDP, but if you define the server manually in the music source menu, you should be fine without. Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
