Thanks. I'll give it a try making sure I'm wearing my electromagnetic

I briefly requested this before, but I'd really like (the option) of
browsing by larger images. In fact, so large that it probably won't
make sense to have them this large permanently, but rather some quick
way of enlarging them (such as the mouseover-thing in the Now Playing

This is about the only thing I can think of that a computer based
interface could (but doesn't) do *so* much better than all the other

Maybe the confusion is caused by the fact that the PLM-entry has been

SBC controlling Receiver playing of local library. Rebooting the SBC
helps, but it seems to quickly reappear. Try playing an album w. several
tracks. Then do a mixture of: track changes, ffw, volume changes,
insert/delete from playlist. Do it from the SBC as well as from SBS
while the SBC is on the Now Playing screen (so should update
accordingly).

Dont have more exact steps atm, but this always triggers the bug for
me.

[SlimDevices: Beta] Now Playing very slow on jive_7.4.0_r7713

2009-09-23 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

Since a while ago I've had problems controlling the volume with the
SBC. Basically its just extremely slow to the point of being useless. 

Upon closer investigation it turns out the problem is only present when
on the Now Playing screen. It works fine other places. It also turns out
that, according to 'top', jive uses almost all the cpu power when in NP.


The behaviour seems to temporarily return to normal upon reboot.

Is this known? Any more info required?

But I presume in this case that the technical implications are limited

As I said in the previous post the proposal is inspired by the Touch

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Proposal: swap "Now Playing" and "Music" on SBC

2009-09-16 Thread bhaagensen

I don't agree with that bug-report. I don't think its a good idea to
have a general user-configuration system. Perhaps some corner could be
addressed that way, but not in general. I can't really argue my case,
but it's related to:

-the fact that the simplistic basic/advanced/expert-user model is known
to have many weaknesses. E.g. even expert users over time grow tired of
tracking configurations.
-it becomes more difficult to add any intelligence (as it must account
for all user-behaviours)
-such systems inevitably adds complexity to the code-base and can be
hard to maintain in a consistent manner.  

Anyway, perhaps I'll do a separate bug report.

Mnyb;458829 Wrote:

Could perhaps work. I have my reservations though. Mostly just because
of the, albeit rather trivial, added complexity. How does one choose a
good ordering? What does the wife/family-members say when things aren't
where they used to be? Its benign I know, but I don't know if the yield
is worth it.

Yes, but the menu is fully included in the button functionality since
the only place the menu can be used is from the home-menu, from which
the button does exactly the same. I don't know about the symbol though.
I don't think the total learning threshold would be bad though. Its not
only about "how to find the button" in the first place. Its also a
balance between things such as insentiment, frequency, necessity etc.
Take the iPod touch. It only has a single button with a square on. Its
not at all obvious from the symbol alone that this is the main-menu
button. Still I have not heard any complains about it. 


I should add that my post was inspired by the Touch-interface that has,
not a hard button, but a dedicated on-screen button and no Now Playing
menu.

[SlimDevices: Beta] Proposal: swap "Now Playing" and "Music" on SBC

2009-09-16 Thread bhaagensen

as subj indicates I think this would "Now Playing" the first list item,
and the rationale is:
-Due to the "resistance", the endpoints are easier to hit.
-I assume that for a large part of the users the "Music" entry is a
main entrance to ones library, and therefore very often accessed.
-There is a hard-button shortcut to the "Now Playing" screen.

For similar reasons I also suggest using the end of the root menu list
for something more commonly accessed than Settings. Personally I
suggest, in decreasing order of importance:

-Favorites
-Turn of player

(this could come at almost no cost since they are currently the 2.
respectively 3. last entry anyway).

Makes sense?

[SlimDevices: Beta] Squeezeplay via. SSH tunnels

2009-09-15 Thread bhaagensen

Hi

I know this has been discussed before, but I couldn't find those
threads now, so I'm starting a new one. 

Basically I would really like if (desktop) SqueezePlay could connect to
SqueezeCenter via ssh-tunnels. For Linux (and Mac?) users this is a
fully secure, straight forward way to connect remotely to a ssh-capable
Squeezeboxserver. Windows users can easily do the same by installing the
free ssh-client, Putty. 

I've tried forwarding (tunneling) tcp-ports 9000 and 3483 and
connecting with SqueezePlay. No joy. AFAIR from the old threads the
problem was that SqueezePlay broadcasts discovery packages over
UDP/3483. This can not be forwarded over ssh-tunnels, and Squeezeplay
couldn't do without. 

I also found this old bugreport:
https://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=8800

but it seems a bit unclear what exactly it is about. 

So. Any input on this. Should I file a new (more detailed) bugreport.
Anyone wants it?

Bjørn

In conclusion; it depends on the user (type).

But I'm convinced that having it at the root is *not* a good solution.

The question is where to place it. I think one should include more
context into the considiration. What mechanisms (should) ensure users
discover it in the first place?

a. They enjoy spending their evenings browsing the shiny SBC-menu
structure.
b. They know from (viral) marketing etc, that they can get a
service/functionality, e.g. rhapsody, last.fm, facebook, flickr.

I think b. is the starting correct answer. So one can assume that there
is some incentive to find out *HOW*. The UI-design task is then to make
it fairly obvious how to find it. I think Settings is a good candidate.

-Its completely unnessecary, i.e. doesn't provide any information to
the user.
-Its only purpose is to look nice, but its just to choppy to achieve
this goal. 
-IMO it in fact makes the SBC appear slow/overloaded. There was a bug
some time ago where it was argued that users would think that things
were faster if just the gui elements moved faster and vice versa.  

Just let it disappear the same way it appears. If you want to be really
fancy, make it a fade-out animation. 

On the positive side I'm glad the play/pause-popup is gone. The GUI is
quite attractive now, but I suggest honoring the fact that the graphics
isn't accelerated, so its never gonna look like an iThingy. Just keep it
nice and simple.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Squeezebox Controller (jive) 7.4 Firmware Pushes -- Now Nightly -- **PLEASE READ**

2009-08-20 Thread bhaagensen

So its clear that even the most unstable builds are being downloaded by
even the most unprepared... in lack of a better word. And it is
essentially impossible for a random user to know which stuff works and
which does not among the various firmwares, SqueezeServer (including
plugins etc), Squeezeplay, and SqueezeNetwork-versions. And like it has
been said, people recommend updating all the time, usually because it
either a) includes a fix for the worlds most important problem, or b)
includes some new worlds most important feature. I don't know how big of
a problem it really is, I'm sure Logitech can extract some numbers on
that and take appropriate action.

The present way is perhaps not the best though. Take this thread as an
example. How many will actually read the warning in the first post?
Remember the nighlies gets linked to directly from forums all over the
world...

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Squeezebox Controller (jive) 7.4 Firmware Pushes -- Now Nightly -- **PLEASE READ**

2009-08-19 Thread bhaagensen

That's all very well. IMO its useful for the testers if we can follow
the source-code changes at some high level. I tried getting logs from
svn.slimdevices.com, but wasn't successful. Nor could I find anything
useful at lists.slimdevices.com. So what is the correct way of following
the source code development these days? 

Alternatively a changelog could accompany the nightly builds, but I
suppose it shouldn't be necessary if one know where to look?

Some of the plugins used to reside in the "Extra"-section of the
controller. I'm specifically thinking of Other players and Lyrics, but
there might be others.

Is there any way of using them with the new firmware, or do they need

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] controller r7804 update - failed

2009-08-15 Thread bhaagensen

I couldn't get the controller to pick up the new firmware. Nor did
copying it to /mnt/mmc work. I ended up connecting to squeezenetwork
which downgraded the controller to 7.3.something. The upgrade then
worked upon reconnection to the local server (not sure if it was picked
up locally, /mnt/mmc, or from the net). 

Anyway its looking good so far. For instance entering text (with the
scrolling method) seems easier. The new middle click behaviour is really
nice! 

The few gripes I have so far are:

-No improvement in browsing for those of use with large-ish libraries. 

-Still just too difficult to enter eg. search strings.
-The new applications/my applications are confusing. No consistency
with the web-interface, duplication of functionality etc.

[SlimDevices: Beta] Jive version for SBS 7.4

2009-08-09 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

due to the recent announcements I decided to upgrade to 7.4 (r28110).
Its working OK, except from the Controller which is very flaky. I
noticed that the jive firmware version is 7.4-5580 which dates back to
May 1st.

Are there any more recent builds or when can they expect to arrive?

[SlimDevices: Beta] Bug: jive_7.4_r5226 browser state inconsistency

2009-04-26 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

could someone verify that this is a bug. To reproduce:

0. Use standard playlist settings. I.e. basically default. 

1. Use said firmware version and set the "Now Playing" screensaver.

2. Browse to somewhere in the artist/album hierarchy with a listing of
more than one album, and start playing by pressing Play on any album.

3. Wait for the screensaver to kick in.

4. Press the middle button. (You should now be in the "Now Playing"
playlist.)

5. Press back once. (or maybe its twice. you should stop when you're
back at the screen where you where before the screensaver kicked in)

6. Now scroll to some other album (recall pt. 3) and press middle
button. 

7. Nothing happens for me at this point, while the correct thing is to
enter the album listing I clicked on.

This is an exact sequence. There are other ways to reproduce also. The
point is that the browser state seems to get messed up if I from the
Now Playing screensaver press the middle button, and then the back
button again.

I think the bug came up approximately when the persistent browser state
was implemented.

Hi,

1. Move an entire album, organised by directory, to somewhere else in
the SC-library path.

2. Rescan by looking for new and changed music.

For me this results in the album being split into individual tracks

add it again everything works.

I strongly agree with the other posters that some extended effort
should be put into getting all systems more robust, reliable and
polished. If it means reallocating developers and spending a few
release cycles without new features then so be it. 

>

I follow some of the Norweigan and Danish audio-forums more or less
closely. And there are frequent posts dealing with Squeezebox,
primarily Duet, problems. I know people don't post success-stories that
often. And I do not have any kind of quantitative measures on the nature
of these posts, so while I am convinced that the following is true, it
is admittedly speculative. 

I thing that the relatively large number of negative posts
significantly contributes to creating a negative image of the products.
I'd say that on the forums that I follow (which are the main forums in
DK/NO), it is (still) accepted as true, that e.g. Sonos (but also other
streamers) just works, and Squeezebox is for the nerds and hackers who
are willing to spend time fixing things. 

I know this is not news, and that SD has been able to maintain its
market position up to now. But I think the marked is very different
today and things must improve in order to keep up.

I am a huge fan of the Squeeze* products and often post if I see wrong
(negative) information and try to help out as best I can. But in far
too many cases the problems seems recurring and/or caused by seemingly
"well-known" bugs.

A class of problems are controller connectivity issues. I always leave
my server on and never experience issues. But many do not and also
report lots of problems. My server or network occasionally crashes, and
most of the time everything comes up fine again. But sometimes I
experience strange reconnectivity-issues. The behaviour in such cases
appears rather random and appears not very well handled by SC/Squeeze.
To me this is one of several examples that indicate that the problems
people are having are very real.

I guess the main point is that unexpected/weird/wrong things happen all
the time, and SC must handle such scenarios (better). User initiated
debugging/adjustements, even small and trivial ones, etc. may alleviate
the problems, but that's just good enough for most. 

People expect and want it to work as reliably as other devices that
they percieve as having the same complexity. E.g. if their PS3 can
connect flawlessly, the Squeeze* should. Or if streaming to device X on
the LAN works flawlessly, so should the Squeeze*. And so on.

Anyway, you might or might not have better data on this than I do.
These where just some thoughts.

That's not the point. The problem is that depending on the original

I see no reason not to improve SC in this area for those that do not
feel like doing it manually or do not have the knowledge or time
(personally I do some photography and spend enough time as it is in
raw-editors and the Gimp etc.). 

I do think that if done it should be optional. Especially for those who
use external means of providing high-quality artwork should not be
subject to SC potentially messing up their art.

Edit: But really, the improvement part is far ahead. More realistically
I would like to see improvements in the way SC presents whatever quality
art the user provides cf. my previous post.

I think it depends on how its done. If one can live with the

This means only extending the image manipulation functionality in SC and

That's a problem and it won't be perfect. But it should be possible to

2009-03-29 Thread bhaagensen

I forgot to mention another quirk.

Currently eg. the album view includes all text in even very long
artist/album titles. This creates huge blank areas. In such cases the
text should be elliptisised (is that what it is called) and the full
text shown on mouse-hover.

These are small things, but the idea is that instead of "starting from
scratch" with a new interface the present once should be polished and
optimised.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] More colours to the Default skin good/bad ?

2009-03-29 Thread bhaagensen

I don't think the default skin looks bad overall. But I've been meaning
to file an enhancement request for a while, and this seems like a good
opportunity to air it. 

Of course the interface could look better. How? I propose to let one
particular feature bring the bling/liveliness to the interface. Namely
the way *covers* are displayed. They already bring color and variation
to the interface and are an integrated part of it. But there is some
room for optimising their visual presentation in SC.

I suggest to let SC do some image manipulation when scanning covers.
This should be one or more of:

-Add small dropshadow (Other possiblilties could be to add some other
kind of frame/border. Eg. last.fm frames covers in jewel-cases.)
-Normalise colors
-Add reflection to the image.
-Preferably give all images the same aspect-ratio and size (more
below).

I once tried to add a small dropshadow and it *really* improves the
overall look of the interface. Unfortunately I forgot to grab a
screenshot... I reverted because it needs to be done more cleverly, ie
dropshadow does not look nice on the Controller full-screen display, or
on the popup appearing when hovering the cover in the now playing
section of the SC-interface.

I'm convinced that this would be a very nice way of improving the look.
Its a subtle change, but the effect is very noticeable. Currently there
are a few visual problems with the covers which in some cases makes the
interface look home-made:

- As SC uses no standardised location to source covers from there is
potential for deviations in quality, colors, size, aspect-ratio etc.
This looks bad.
- Sometimes covers have white, or some other kind of border. Again
bad.
- In general the varying image quality is a problem. 

What do you think. Worth filing a request?

B.

Squeezeplay is not packaged for Linux. You need to install from svn.

There are lots of people who can't get the Duet working at all, or just
bearly, due to various networking issues. Some have been waiting for a
fix ever since the Duet was introduced.

There are lots of people with low powered NAS-boxes that are eagerly
awaiting various SqueezeCenter optimsations so their systems becomes
usable.

There are lots of people with (insert your favorite problem here) which
in some or other way makes it impossible for them to use their
Duet/SB/Boom.

Those where all problems in stable production-quality products.
SqueezePlay was released just recently and clearly marked as
BETA-software. Even so there are Linux-users eagerly awaiting a
packaged version of SqueezePlay so they don't have to compile from
source code. 

I'm sure they are working on your problem too, but realise that others
have issues with production-versions that prevents them from using the
product they paid for.

Yes that makes sense. I agree that the artwork should be as large as

[SlimDevices: Beta] Fullscreen artwork should have a small border

2008-11-13 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

the new fullscreen artwork stuff is nice and probably a nice welcome as
per earlier forum requests. 

However I'd like to see a few pixels border added. The screen now
appears ill proportioned as if the cover image has been shoehorned into
the available space. I think the reason for this is that it is wider
than the rounded status/track info box which to me defines the
available space; no real content should be wider than that. I've
attached a screenshot and I think the width should be the same as the
width of said box.

[SlimDevices: Beta] Bug playing asx playlist (RadioTime).

2008-11-07 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

Playing "DR P1" (local Danish channel) via RadioTime does not work. I
get a "no items in playlist" message. 

http://opml.radiotime.com/StationPlaylist.axd?stationId=24860&Formats=mp3,wma,real&username=bhaagensen

It's kind of strange because the direct link

http://www.dr.dk/netradio/Metafiler/asx/dr_p1_128.asx

works fine.

Also I don't know whether this bug is related, which is the reason I
did not file a new bug yet.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] 7.3 controller firmware on its way to 7.3 SC users

2008-10-15 Thread bhaagensen

For the impatient, such as myself the volume can be controlled by
logging into the SBC and issuing:

amixer sset Speaker 80%

where 80% is ... well 80% volume, or something. Of course other values
work:) This is for the internal hi-fi full-range speaker. I didn't try
for the headphone-amp-output, but I think this should work:

amixer sset Headphone 80%

If you knew all this just disregard; it probably ain't that useful yet
as it still is quite unstable for me. But MAN, IT IS WICKEDLY
COOL!!!!!!

Controller updates are (also) pulled from the Internet. What you are
seeing is expected. If you want to avoid it either downgrade to stable,
or disable automatic update checking. 7.1 will be released "soon" I
expect. But the dates are not strict. Usually they just release
whenever they are ready.

[SlimDevices: Beta] Cannot update SBC from r2649

2008-07-06 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

My SBC seem to be stuck at jive-7.1r2649. I can't downgrade, nor update
from the net or SD card. Pressing the middle button on either of these
choices only triggers the sound effect, but nothing else happens.

I tried resetting both using menu and through key combination. This did
not reset the firmware version which in fact remained at r2649. Nor did
it solve the upgrade problem above. 

So I'd appreciate help on how I can solve this problem.

Regards Bjorn

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] 7.1 - New JS code for Default skin - SqueezeJS

2008-06-13 Thread bhaagensen

Hello (especially mherger),

there was a discussion earlier in this thread about remembering the
size of the lhs/rhs thru page reloads. AFAIR the required changes where
not trivial nor high-priority.

But what about changing the default so that the lhs is allocated
maximum/most width upon initial loading? I can not at all argue why,
but I'm pretty convinced that the majority would prefer this to the
current equal-width default.

If it is an easy change, why not give it a try in the nightly builds
and see what reaction you get? 

Or do other already want to object?

Regards Bjorn

[SlimDevices: Beta] Now playing info issue in SC7.1

2008-06-03 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

Artist/Album info is periodically missing in the player control part of
the webui (see screenshot). Clicking on any control, such as
next,prev,volup,voldown, the info reappears but then disappears shortly
after; perhaps on the next update.

SC7.1 version is below, but the problem was already occurring in the
debian nightly before the current one which was 20418. It can not
recall seeing it in 20396

No it doesn't, at least not within a minute or two. Track changes makes
the update happen though. To reproduce I just play a track, keep the web
interface open while changing volume on the Controller. No updating in
the webinterface.

I should say that this is using Firefox-rc1 (default Ubuntu 8.04).
Other information updates correctly, in particular the progress bar.

[SlimDevices: Beta] Volume not synching between SC7.1 and SBC

2008-06-01 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

The visual indicators for volume does not synch properly between the
SBC and SC. The synch seems to happen on track changes. Apart from the
general inconvenience this could be a real issue for those running
direct to amp.

I was able to trig an upwards jump in volume once, so even though it
doesn't happen every time, it doesn't seem like the code guarantees
that this never can occur. 

Always happens for me, so it's easily reproduced.

[SlimDevices: Beta] Language related bug in jive-7.0.1r2223

2008-04-14 Thread bhaagensen

When danish language is selected I've noticed the following odd
behavior.

1. When english is the current language, and danish is being selected
the spinning thingy does not stop or go away by itself. Pressing back
seems to work, and the language is being changed to danish.

2. When booting with danish set as langauge, sometimes the boot process
seems to get stuck sometime after the startup sound is played when the
screen is showing "free your music". I've had to reset a couple of
times. Other times it seems to come along after waiting some time.
Below is an excerpt from the log in such a case. Note the timestamps
after "Registering setuplanguage".

Is this a bug?

Where are you trying to access it ? The SVN repository structure changed
recently. See the dev forum.

... but then again the first builds of SC7 with the new interface
weren't exactly plug'n play.

That said, the stability of unstable trunk builds can vary across
projects and companies, and historically the unstable SC builds have
been very polished for long period of times. So I can see why that
can lead people into expecting unstable to work.

If one follows unstables on a daily basis, at some point,
perhaps after months or even years, things will most likely break
bigtime, e.g. when the major changes are commited.

Therefore I think it is highly recomendable to follow dev- and
commit-mailinglists when using trunks.

Anyway, just my 2c. 

In peace,

B.

Did you try to shut down the router, factory reset the SBC and reboot
the SBC ? Did this offer you the option of configuring a static ip ?
If not this probably means that the menu for configuring a static ip
is only shown after the router has been discovered. 

Here's an idea which may of may not work in this scenario. The idea is
to let the SBC discover the router but shut down the router before the
SBC manages to obtain an ip via the router's dhcp-server, thus fooling
it to think that there is no dhcp server on the network and
consequently give you the option of configuring a static ip.

So you could try this. Figure out which address range the dhcp server
on your router allocates from. Most likely something like 192.168.*.*
or 10.0.*.*. Factory reset the SBC and reboot. Now you should let the
SBC discover your router, but shut down the router before it gets an
ip. You'll probably have to guess when this is. Or do it while the SBC
show the "Obtaining ip" popup. Just try a few times with different
shutdown times. Now hopefully you should hit the right time, and the
SBC should tell you that it could not obtain an ip and give you the
option of configuring a static ip. Give it an ip in the range NOT used
by the dhcp-server as per above. Turn your router back on and either
continue booting the SBC, or reboot it.

OK, its a bit of a long story, but it should work if the
implementation is fairly standard.

Are you an expert in user interfaca design? Or do you know that this is
something a significant number of users want. Going by the confidence
in your statements you really should have better arguments than the "I

Oohh? I really don't understand why that is happening. So this is
really mostly blind guesswork, but you could try

DISPLAY=localhost java -Dserver=localhost -Dskins=headless -jar
SoftSqueeze.jar

or

java -Ddisplay=localhost -Dserver=localhost -Dskins=headless -jar
SoftSqueeze.jar

Another option is to add startup command to the init-scripts so that it
is started automatically on boot.

Just to verify, are you sure you are giving the

just copy the entire contents of
$SQUEEZECENTER/HTML/EN/html/softsqueeze/ (or get the jar-files from
cache) to somewhere you'd like to run softsqueeze from, and start with
the usual cli-line, i.e. 'java -Dserver=192.168.1.5 -Dskins=headless
-jar SoftSqueeze.jar'

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] SqueezeCenter hogs CPU in Firefox 3

2008-02-05 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

thanks for you replies, but I've verified the issue on a fresh profile
with no plugins/extensions/themes. I forgot to say that included
disabling the DOM inspector plugin. It doesn't help.

I might try to roll back to eariler builds of Firefox 3, and see if
there is some point at which it works.

But out of interest are anybody else running FF3 on Linux without
problems?

(It works fine in FF 2)

[SlimDevices: Beta] SqueezeCenter hogs CPU in Firefox 3

2008-02-04 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

I realise FF3 might not yet be supported, but seeing it's probably not
that far away (guessing) I thought I'd try my luck here.

Basically the issue is that SqueezeCenter hogs all CPU. It's most
prevalent when something is playing in the right frame, but the general
performance is also worse then before. Funny thing is that according to
top X is the one taking the CPU hit. So maybe its a Firefox issue. On
the other hand I've not seem the same problems with other webpages...

I tried on a fresh FF profile to no avail. Sorry about the sparse info,
but I don't know where to look. I've been running on the nightly debian
builds, but unfortunately I cannot remember when it started. I'd guess
its been going on for a week+. Tried installing the web-developer
extension, but I don't  how to use it so...

Sysinfo (Problem verified on two machines with):
Ubuntu 7.10
SqueezeCenter version: 7.0 - 17118 - Debian - DA - utf8
Firefox 3.0b3pre

Any hints?

Bjørn

[SlimDevices: Beta] Improving browse with "show artist with album"?

2008-01-16 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

When browsing albums with "show artist with album" enabled, the
formatting on various artist albums is not optimal since all artists
are shown, so it can generate a lot of whitespace. I would suggest
truncating in that view since the detailed info can be seen in album
details.

This can also be a problem with e.g. classical music which often have
long artist/title string. 

The problem is pretty much independent of whether one browse by large,
small or no artwork; though certain choices might make the issue more
visible.

[SlimDevices: Beta] Live Music Archive problems

2008-01-16 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

I'm having some problems with the Live Music Archive plugin. 

1. Is the search functionality broken? Try a few searches from the
webpage and the problem (if existing) will be obvious.

2. The now playing information does not update correctly. No title is
shown in the current track info, and in the playlist the raw URL stream
is shown. This is playing back

Hovedmenu > Live Music Archive  > Artists  > Calexico  > 2006 -
Calexico  > 2006-12-02 - Rialto Theatre  

Oops! SqueezeCenter Version: 7.0 - 16329 - Debian - DA - iso-8859-1

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Updated New Default skin

One good thing about the current scheme is that it provides a fairly
consistent look across slimdevices.com, forums.slimdevices,
wiki.slimdevices, and localhost:9000. In my deep unconscious mind there
is a little voice saying "ah, this looks like a very professional

That's what it is! It's been bugging me all they long, and then the
good old HP-48GX popped into my mind. Sorry if this is irrelevant to
the tread, but the intention is to serve the purpose of illustrating
that the current scheme is slightly nerdy (in lack of a better word).
It is not exactly Mac-, web 2.0-, brushed aluminium-, shiny-ish, but
rather a bit "heavy".

Of course all of the above is my personal opinion...

[SlimDevices: Beta] Feat. req: "Channel"-art

2007-11-01 Thread bhaagensen

Hi,

Is it possible to add art, e.g. logos to radio station? I guess it is,
because the antenna thing is already there. But could an interface be
exposed to the user? If not I think it would be a nice addition to the
graphical improvements in SC7, and I imagine also on that Jive thing.

Should/could I file an enhancement request in the bugtracking system.
