Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Placement of AppGalery-menu on SBC
The Home menu should really just contain items which you access on daily basis and App Gallery isn't one of these things. While this is true, we have to expose it clearly to the user. If it was hidden somewhere deep in some settings menu, most users probably would never discover what possibilities they had. We want the user to discover new apps. This allows us to have a clean main menu to start with and let the user add what he likes only (instead of the flood of services we used to have there). It is possible to hide it by configuring the Home menu to not show it but then it gets completely hidden as there isn't any way to enabled it under My Apps or Setting. Might be worth a bug report/enhancement request. Would you mind?... Thanks! ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta

If App Gallery is permanently on the Home menu, and it always has the full list of all apps, then a user may visit the list a couple of times, but then not revisit again, and maybe even work out how to disable it, and thus never find new apps in the future. ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
[SlimDevices: Beta] Squeezeplay beta update
The Squeezeplay beta has not been updated on the download site since June 23rd 2009. Is there a more current version on the Software development system which includes fixes for some of the more irritating bugs, e.g. https://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=10237 which is said to have been fixed? If yes, could this be posted for download and testing please?

But it's not permanent, is it? At least with r7485 the user can go to Settings Home Menu and select/de-select App Gallery. However, if App Gallery is removed from the SBC home menu then it doesn't seem to appear under Settings or anywhere else. In other words, the user has to restore it to the Home Menu in order to regain access to App Gallery. I can see the logic of having App Gallery default to being on the Home Menu, to increase user awareness of the possibilities. Afterward the user can remove it from the home menu, although I think it would be better if removing it from the home menu would shift it to the Settings menu, rather than disappearing it completely. -- aubuti aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67740 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta

[SlimDevices: Beta] 7.4 Desktop Squeezeplay builds with Radio/Touch/new Controller UI now available
With the public announcement of the impending release of Squeezebox Radio and Squeezebox Touch, we've now made Squeezeplay Desktop binaries available. http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.4 the links near the bottom for OS X and Windows Squeezeplay are what you want. *Note*: unfortunately we are not successfully building linux binaries at this time. These builds contain all of the work that's gone into the upcoming 7.4/Squeezebox Radio release, as well as a great deal of work for the 8.0/Squeezebox Touch release. This includes UI skins for Radio, Touch, as well as the 7.4 Controller reskin effort. Desktop Squeezeplay is a nice way to test drive the look-and-feel of the software UI before purchase, as well a nice testing platform for 3rd party applet/plugin development. When you launch the app it will default to the Touch's 3' UI. IMO, this is the best UI for desktop use currently. However, to change to the Radio UI: Settings-Screen-Select Skin-QVGA Landscape Skin similarly, you can change to Controller UI by: Settings-Screen-Select Skin-QVGA Portrait Skin after changing the skin, you will likely want to change the wallpaper because it will still have a Touch-resolution wallpaper as its background to select a correctly sized wallpaper: Settings-Screen-Wallpaper and select a wallpaper of your liking. cheers, #!/ben -- bklaas Logitech Developer: Squeezeplay/SqueezeOS/SqueezeboxController/SqueezeCenter Community Developer: Nokia770Skin http://www.last.fm/user/bklaas/ 'KHAAAN!'

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Placement of AppGalery-menu on SBC
I kind of like the idea of having some kind of indication when there is a new or upgraded application. The only problem is how to detect that something is new ? I was thinking not so much automatically removing something when it has been viewed, but when it has either been installed, or the user has selected an ignore option. i.e. right-arrow into an item and be offered actions: More Info - description about the plugin Install - Put the item into My Apps, Home Menu, etc. Ignore - indicate that you are not interested in the app, maybe move the item into an Ignored category, so they can still be accessed later if desired. In addition, if an app has been ignored and a newer (major) version is available, it could be restored to the App Gallery original category. The App Gallery menu could change to App Gallery - New! when there are new/changed apps available. I agree with pippin that My Apps/App Gallery would be best, it makes the applications as noticeable as the current solution but without cluttering the home menu. Combined with the new apps indication that would make sure no one misses them. That would be okay, although I can understand why App Gallery is separate from My Apps initially. Could be a little confusing at first - user hasn't got any apps, so why look in My Apps? Personally, if it were to go that way, I'd change My Apps to Apps, and then include App Gallery within Apps. I'd personally prefer App Gallery to be in Settings, and keep My Apps for installed apps only. The first thing I do when I get new software or consumer products is to go through Settings to see what is available, and Settings/installable extras should be in one place. ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta

You should check both tabs as the applications tab doesn't show all processes. ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] 7.4 Desktop Squeezeplay builds with Radio/Touch/new Controller UI now available
Same problem here on XP Pro. I installed it over the old SqueezePlay and it ran just fine, except that I couldn't get into My Apps (with an Invalid player ID message) and when I tried to switch to mysqueezebox.com it crashed. On test.sn.com I don't see the player, so I figured it somehow needed to be registered on SN first. Couldn't see anything in settings that would let me do that. So I completely uninstalled, then re-installed. Now, same as everyone else, it does nothing. Never runs. Nothing in Windows Task Manager. -- JJZolx Jim JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67760 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta

Kevin, try installing it again to a different folder and running that version. Something must be missing. A dll maybe? If you compare the two installation folders you may be able to tell what it is. -- JJZolx Jim JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67760 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] 7.4 Desktop Squeezeplay builds with Radio/Touch/new Controller UI now available
Using Process Explorer, I see squeezeplay blip, then die. I was using squeezeplay 7.3r5922 for some time. I uninstalled that. Also deleted C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\SqueezePlay just in case. Then installed 7.4. No window. Uninstalled and reinstalled just in case. Still no window. Just the aforementioned blip. Nothing that I can find in event viewer either. -- tosa68 tosa68's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29443 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67760 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta

Two files are missing in a fresh install. /mime/core.dll /socket/core.dll copying these from the older install location makes it work. Looks like the project file must have lost these along the way. -k ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta

No window at all? cheers, #!/ben Hi ben, I'm on Windows XP Pro SP3 32 bit. I originally deleted the (June build) old Squeezeplay, and installed today's build clean. When I tried to run it, I got nothing at all. No windows, no apparent activity. I have been out for the last couple of hours...and have seen the latest posts. I re-installed the old Squeezeplay, tried it out and it runs. I then installed the new Squeezeplay (todays) and started it up. It runs, but can't connect to my music library. It tells me to make sure my computer is turned on and connected to my local network, and that Squeezebox Server is running. I even have it plugged in:-) When I try to enter my account details, it just sits there after I enter the password...does not move when I select Done. cheers, kesey. -- kesey kesey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10786 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67760 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
