Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Lms 7.7 rc4
RC4: Install over RC3 (running as a service)... 1) Install hangs indefinitely at "Uninstalling"... THIS NEEDS FIXING 2) killing the uninstall process allows install to proceed - although the registering services step takes several minutes and then appears to crash - then it reappears with an "install successful" dialogue box 3) Immediately post-install the server service is not running. 4) opening the control panel and starting from there (NOTE: "Don't start automatically" is checked!- doh!) does start the service BUT now a FULL SCAN has started - WHY? The library has not changed.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Lms 7.7 rc2
The RC2 install is borked on Win 7 - exactly as Bill Burns described. See attached screenshots after 30 mins... If you kill the uninstall process in Task Manager, it then completes OK. The problems appear to be related to squeezetray.exe... The initial scan (post-install) appears to complete OK but... New Music is empty... and a new/changed scan immediately kicks off... After that all seems OK. Music scanned fine, all present and correct - except for a new intolerance (well, a warning message in scanner.log) for rating tags containing decimal points (e.g. "3.5"). +---+ |Filename: CropperCapture[2].jpg| |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=12533| +---+ -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Default artticle list in SBS/LMS?
Band names and album titles need to be treated differently. No one on the planet files bands starting with "The" under "T"... there are simply far too many of them for this to be a good idea. However, there are very few bands and relatively few albums that start with "A". Thus there is little reason to ignore the article "A". According to my analysis of my library (3000 albums) less than 1% of albums start with "a" or "the". I have 2 artists that start with "a" and over 300 that start with "the"... -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

IME it has more USEFUL features than the majority of competing products. I know you will claim they are "geeky" but MIP and INGUZ integration will keep me using SBS in preference to any vanilla DLNA solution.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] What's happening with LMS?
The point is that the ratio of win vs nix amongst the installed user base of SBS is NOT going to be similar to that within the general population of all computer users. FAR MORE SBS users will have *nix-based (NAS or PC) boxes than will non SBS users. So the sample IS skewed and the extrapolation fails. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

Your analysis makes no sense. The Market is skewed towards people who have been brainwashed into believing that using a NAS to run server software (including SBS) is a good idea. Therefore it should be no surprise that the ratio is 1.6:1 regardless of the Total installed base ratio of Windows:*nix "computers".

Mostly because I object to the idea that I already have "Mark Knopfler" and "Emmylou Harris" defined as artists (individually) on other tracks/albums and I don't want to be forced to synthesise a new hybrid "albumartist" (e.g. "Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris"). I understand for sure why other folks might want to do this / be happy to do this... but I don't because it messes (slightly) with my artist count stats... and also there is no absolute sense in which the tag can be deemed "correct"; "Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris" could just as well be "Emmylou Harris & Mark Knopfler" - it's an arbitrary choice - and I hate those.

OK so can we agree that the logically "correct" behaviour for albums with multiple ARTIST tags and no AA and which are not VA Comps is... everything as it is now, except that the album should appear under each ARTIST in album browse (as it already does in artist browse). However, because this would create multiple entries per album in this view it is not going to happen - so instead it should take the FIRST named artist as the sort/location point.

OK - I see now. I only have a max of 3 artists - and my "3" is odd because all artists names start with "C"... Looking at the album browse use-case again, I'm not sure it matters exactly where the album appears in the alpha sort sequence. If you are consciously looking for a particular album title, wouldn't you KNOW the artists? If you are purely working visually, does it matter what exact sequence the covers appear in? However, back to the physical world for a moment... if you had the CD, where would you file the 1 copy of it? I'm not suggesting we should be bound by the limitations of the physical world... but it is an interesting question, especially for classical music...

I'm not sure I follow. Even though I don't use this view (I only ever "browse" via Artist) I think I'm still happy because: I can still find/see the album in that browse mode - it hasn't disappeared. IN my example it is sorted under K - which makes some sense. IF was under H that would be fine too - If it was under BOTH H & K that would also be fine. So in summary: 1) The album is visible 2) it appears in a logical place 3) is it perfect - no, but good enough for me 4) Am I going to add AA tags to my albums - NO! 5) Should we move on to other bugs? - probably... that conflated hyperlink bug is NASTY, as is the apparently missing "No Album" -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

Sorry, perhaps I forgot to add a "knowing" smiley face... What I meant it was that it is obviously sad that Logitech is not clued-up. Being "big" is no excuse for not understanding what your most loyal and vocal customers are saying (even if you choose to ignore them) these days... Believe me I do know how (most) big corporations work! The good thing about being part of such a large corp is potential economis of scale, potential access to a global marketing, distribution and support network, potential leverage across product lines, access to very good patent lawyers (I could go on...) The bad thing is that the execs and marketeers mostly have NO CLUE what is going on and make crazy decisions that infuriate existing customers and baffle, mislead or frustrate new customers...

I don't want to take this off-topic, but really I (also a "musician") like to differentiate between "performances" - by the same performer. I'm occasionally interested in who wrote a song but I'm usually much more interested in the performer... and then in the spcific performance. Unfortunately SBS has no built-in method for supporting "performance" (and the Composer fucntionality is indeed broken in 7.6 but I'm sure it can/will be fixed if enough people vote for a bug).

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Lms?
Aha - very interesting. So the solution to your problem is to run everything from the PC (Touch, receiver and Radio) - either wired or via wi-fi - and use 7.6. That will get you the fastest possible scanning / full rescans & UI performance, and get rid of your artwork problems. That only leaves you (and me!) with the "multiple track artists not showing" problem for which there is a bug and hopefully a fix...soon? -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

OK - it wasn't clear you had a proper PC :-) The "only one artist even on duets" bug is a UI bug not a scanner bug - it does need fixing and I'm sure it will get fixed at some point, but it isn't really a "showstopper". It does annoy me too. Not sure what the "artwork bug" is - all of mine is fine. I haven't seen the random disappearing trayicon problem for a while - doesn't seem to affect my Win7 setup as much as it did under XP - again it is mildly annoying but hardly a showstopper - there's nothing you can't do even without that icon visible... Not sure what the albumartist vs artist problem is (but then I only use albumartist in very specific and rare circumstances so I better not comment on that). -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Lms?
To be honest, if I had 240k files I would DEFINITELY be investing in a proper PC to run SBS. That is a massive collection. My humble Win7 and XP PC's can scan 40k files+artwork and MusicIP mix status in 37 minutes on SBS 7.6. 240k of files would take maybe 4 hours on my setup I wouldn't even dream of using the Touch internal server or a NAS of any spec for that size of library. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

It really doesn't matter if 7.6 gets shelved. I've been running it (happily) for over a year and will continue to run it. It makes NO difference what its official release status is - it works.
