Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Please Fix the Controller :(
Part of the problem is that it works great for some people, like me, so reproducing a problematic setup is probably not easy in the quality control lab. I would imagine they'd be interested in why it's not staying connected on your setup, so consider contacting tech support and giving them as many details as possible, which will also be in your own best interest for getting this solved quickly. When I've had troubles with the Controller disconnecting repeatedly it usually proven worthwhile to look into the router config page and see what it's doing. Are IP addresses conflicting when E.g. the Boom or a laptop gets assigned? Does it help if the Controller has a fixed IP? Try a different encryption method. Make sure it's not set to reauthenticate every 7 minutes. See if there is more up-to-date firmware available for it. Etc. Etc. Good luck, and please post about your success or failure. -- Skunk http://www.last.fm/user/TheSkunk/ Skunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2685 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58011 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] r3309 oddity
Well SqueezePlay was able to remember its name, but not before losing the ability to contact SC for a few hours. It eventually fixed itself by sitting in the cradle, with SC on and playing through Boom. I was glad that it was able to fix itself, because in the past this familiar lack of communication w/ SC meant I'd have to downgrade FW. Maybe this issue is unique to me, but the common theme is always that the players are shown and working through SC, but the players disappear when you try selecting them with the Controller (or more accurately, try selecting the music source). The wireless icon remains white the whole time. Nothing will make the players show up except using the Win tray icon to 'Stop SqueezeCenter'. They then magically and instantly show up again, but still fail to connect to SC when restarted. It seems to me something SC is doing is blocking the communication, but I'm open to the fact that it could be my network. Maybe it's Zone Alarm, and just shutting it down isn't enough. I suppose I should try uninstalling it all together, and make sure it doesn't ever happen using the same router but with a .deb SC. Sorry for thinking aloud. One other thing I noticed was that I'm not able to get the loved track feature to stick, but this happens using the Boom's panel too.

Stable beta is an oxymoron. FWIW, my Duet was stuck on connecting to network all weekend and only listed the Receiver by it's mac address instead of by name, and wouldn't let me connect to it, which sounds like your problem. This happened after I upgraded the Controller FW to 3206, and the three or four nightly SC upgrades since then didn't fix the issue. I ended up going back to 7.2.1, where the Controller still refused to talk to the network long enough to downgrade firmware, so I SSH'ed the r3080.bin firmware onto the controller, at which point it worked again.

If it is I would rather get the controller swapped now than wait until the new software comes out and I want to have the functionality available. It's not the hardware, but rather a software problem. You're using beta software, and reverting to the previous release will solve your problem of crackling sounds. The tech support people are probably not equipped to answer beta questions yet, let alone questions about alpha features like playback. For the record, mine crackles as well, especially in the bass. It sounds great when I'm streaming FLAC, but drops out too often to be usable. Local Mp3 files and also files transcoded via bitrate limiting on the player exhibit exactly what you're describing, but only if the recording comes anywhere near clipping. E.g. on My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts original pressing there are no crackles, but on the much hotter mastering of the recent re-release it's very noticable.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Updated New Default skin
Actually getting a song to play next can be pretty tedious with long playlists, even with the DD feature. One thing that would make life easier is some kind of auto scrolling feature, so that once you've dragged to the highest visible point in the playlist it automatically pushes to scroll to the top of the list. As it's implemented now, you have to drop the item, scroll up, and then continue dragging to the top and repeat as necessary. I haven't actually seen this done anywhere, but the behavior I'm imagining is similar to selecting large amounts of text and having it auto scroll to the top/bottom. Apps like Illustrator do it as well if you drag something beyond the bounds of the window, but I haven't seen it on the Web.

I'm getting a 20 pixel page scroll when using the mouse wheel while hovering over anything but the playlist in Opera 9.20 (doesn't occur in Firefox 2.0.0.1.). If the list view of Albums is set in stone, can we have 'Browse Album Art' back, with larger thumbs and columns (sized to fit the fixed frame or with fluid margins)? Art in the playlist does seem a bit redundant, but I usually listen to a single album rather than playlists or random mix, for which it will probably be nice. A toggle like Jim mentioned would be nice. I would prefer to see the genre listed as opposed to the bitrate in status.html. Also, like others I'm not a big fan of the extra click to get to my local music- especially considering that I didn't even register for SN or have any favorites set up- whether the page actually refreshes or not.
