[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Tomato router - optimisations for Touch?
Hi guys, I was reading some of Soundcheck's blog on network settings for the Touch and was thinking about QoS and such, as my router is running Tomato. I'm not au fait at fiddling with the Tomato settings and was wondering if any Tomato experts could help suggest any settings that may help with streaming? -- alec_cat alec_cat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=48527 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89481 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Logitech offer: 50% off any one item
Got an email from Logitech today that gives a discount code for 50% off any one item bought through their website (in the USA at least). Good until August 15. Time to set up that garage system. Gonna get a Touch for ~$150. BTW, the Transporter SE at ~$1300 list, would be only ~$650... Sheesh, maybe I should get one of those.

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Touch: Upsampling with sox?
What format is the file? Are you running an external SBS or are you plugging in a USB drive to the Touch? Dou you get that message from the Touch or from the server? The Touch can definately play 88.2 files, and nothing in either Soundcheck's nor Dynaudiorules mods changes anything related to sample rate. I'm having a hard time figuring out how you would get that message. The file might be corrupt and give the wrong sample rate, but that should get caught by the server and converted to a supported sample rate (IF running an external SBS). The only other possibility I can think of is if you have SOX setup to change the sample rate to something the Touch doesn't support. I would check the server log and the Touch log to see if there are any errors reported when trying to play this file. The server log is listed in the server web interface somewhere under the advanced setup menu. On the Touch you need to SSH into the Touch (use PuTTY on windows) and cd /var/log less messages When done type q then exit to get out.

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] New Squeezebox Touch Mod
With help from dynaudiorules I manage to solve hanging problem. Be aware of pasting empty spaces inside of file. If you paste empty row in the end of file, be prepare to do factory default. Btw nice improvment in soundstage and fluidness. My setup for SPDIF is 51. -- ezzy ezzy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=48804 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89359 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Transporter: No skip/fwd with 7.6.1?
After upgrading to 7.6.1 - r33004 (on unbuntu), the skip/fwd [>>] function on my transporter does not seem to work properly anymore. It just restarts the running song. Everything else, including back/rew [<<], is still fully functional. I tried my harmony, the original remote, front button and SqueezeCommander with the same result. The skip/next still works on my Boom, though! Any hint, what the problem could be? -- Meridion 1739 Alben mit 21427 Titel von 1671 Interpreten.

I think I have managed to find the USB process id (305 on my Touch), although I haven't had the chance yet to do much listening. I am also using a HRT (the new II+). With Soundcheck's mods applied, I find the results better than any dac I have tried via spdif, so I would love to be able to have a stable 24 bit capability. Please do keep us posted on your progress with this. -- john4456 john4456's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23008 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89359 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
