WPA key is defined as a limited subset of 7-bit ASCII, so that's already covered. Any valid WPA key can be entered on the Radio. The character set for SSID is however not defined, it's actually just spec'ced as bytes, so the text representation is up to the implementation. Adding the entire 8-bit ASCII set to the text entry control would slow down everyone else's entry speed significantly just to cater to an edge case. I'll ask again - why would you want to set your SSID to something that looks like a CRC error? It doesn't provide any additional security so I just don't see the point. Having said that, it would probably work if you stopped hiding the SSID as wellwhich is another pointless non security-enhancing measure that people seem to think is a good idea. -- radish 'HELP ME RAISE MONEY FOR CHILDREN'S CANCER RESEARCH!'

You should have the option to add a radio station as a favorite. However, if your radio is connected to mysqueezebox.com, this doesn't work due to a bug.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Ship date?
I just got mine - very impressive! It's much smaller than I thought - but I'm used to a huge internet radio that I had picked up for $50 three years ago. The red colour isn't as nice as I thought it would be, although perhaps I can pretend it's Italian. At least it's different to black. The sound quality is fine for kitchen listening. I'd say the UI is a little on the complex side, but is full of nice features. In particular the 1-5 preset buttons which just let you just push a button and listen to radio without having to think. Very nice how you can put a 'shuffle' option on the main screen too (although 'song mix' is a bit obscure for the iPod generation) Often i'm cooking or something and i just want it to play some music and not have to think about it and the radio meets that. I also appreciated how it found 'local' radio stations when I was setting it up. One tiny bug is that the BBC app is called RADIO_PROVIDERS_BBC when you add it to the home page.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Setting the alarm for 06xx
FYI, this has been fixed in r7847, and it will be included in the 7.4.1 release (likely before the end of October). 12h formatted time works to set the alarm until then as a workaround. It amounted to a one line fix, but not in a particularly obvious place. cheers, #!/ben -- bklaas Logitech Developer: Squeezeplay/SqueezeOS/SqueezeboxController/SqueezeCenter Community Developer: Nokia770Skin http://www.last.fm/user/bklaas/ 'KHAAAN!'

[SlimDevices: Radio] Home button on Radio unresponsive
I'm very happy with my new red radio, it's beautiful and the sound is amazing, but i'm having issues with the squeezeplay software. I'd say the Home button should ALWAYS take you directly to the home screen (excepts maybe when in a context menu), but it seems to respond only when i'm only one level away from the home screen (when hitting back would do the trick also). What's more, as it didn't respond, i hit the home button a few times more (asking for it, i know) and then it didn't respond to any keypress or scroll action any more, but was still playing music. Then maybe 20 seconds later i get a spontaneous reboot, and to my surprise, when it came back up, a message about recovering from a system error and if it was OK to send diagnostics to Logitech. Well of course! Automated bug/crash reports, that's a good step forward i think. -- ghan http://last.fm/user/ghan64 ghan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19733 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69682 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
[SlimDevices: Radio] How do I get the Radio to connect to mysb.com?
I just set up my Radio today and everything went smoothly. After plugging it in and configuring my network settings, the Radio found my local Squeezebox Server and connected to it. I tested it with both local music and with internet based sources such as Rhapsody, and everything worked flawlessly. Next, I turned off my server to see what would happen. I assumed if no server was found, the Radio would automatically ask me for my mysb.com login information and connect to it. Unfortunately, this was not the case. No matter what I did, it kept trying to connect to my local server. I even tried rebooting the Radio, but I still kept getting the same message, Can't Connect to Library. The only options it gave me were Try again and Switch Library. Obviously, there is something I'm missing.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] First impressions.... not impressed
I am testing the Radio and Boom side by side at the moment. It's immediately obvious that the Boom display reacts much faster to user inputs. There is no lag on Boom at all, while there is noticeable lag on the Radio. Most offending is the power off button. Sound gets cut quickly, but display sticks around for like one second. -- unclemat unclemat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33372 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69446 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] First impressions.... not impressed
I really do like the SBRadio. I think it is very solid compared to other similar radios. It has a nice cool look to it and the sound quality is very good. The functionality is very good and the speed is fine; I do not expect it to behave exactly like the SBBoom...it's a miniature. I call it my Baby Boom and it does things that a radio should do in its place...mine is in the kitchen. My Boom is next to my bed and serves me well there. So, I think that Logitech did a very good job in designing the Baby Boom. As a matter of fact I am thrilled with all the Logitech products that I have. I have never listened to so much variety of music;listened to many football games that are not locally broadcast; listened to interesting talk shows. -- Ikabob Ikabob's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32088 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69446 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] First impressions.... not impressed
Well, I admit I see benefits of the multi line screen and some changes in the interface (like press the dial to play). But the amount of bugs in the unit is pretty annoying. Another bug - selecting an item on a random mix playlist (song mix) causes the cursor to jump to whatever relative (wrt to the beginning) position after the list is refreshed. One would expect it stay at the selected song. Meeting a date certainly trumps quality at Logitech. I see it my company and hate it with passion. I am almost there to decide to send it back. -- unclemat unclemat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33372 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69446 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
