[SlimDevices: Beta] Pandora Stops
Another strange thing I have noticed over the last couple of weeks is Pandora keeps stopping. I will be listening to a radio station and suddenly, it will just stop. I use the Sirius plugin as well and am not seeing the same behavior. The player doesn't lock up or anything. The song ends, the stream stops, and the player goes into the RSS feed (my screensaver). I don't remember this happening in 6.5x, but in 7.01 (latest nightly), it does. Is this normal behavior or something new? I can go back to the radio station and play it again, but after a random number of songs, it stops (similar to the end of an album) -- broth420 ---- broth420's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1676 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43654 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
[SlimDevices: Beta] Nokia 770 Skin Player Selection Issue
I am running the latest nightly beta 7.01 on Ubuntu 7.10 Server 32. I use the Nokia770 skin on a Nokia N800. Mostly it works well, but one thing I have noticed is I can't get the skin to change players. I select a different player (it looks like it highlights it) and then move to a different page, and I am back to the original player. Am I missing something, or is there a problem with this feature? 6.5x does not have the same issue.

[SlimDevices: Beta] 7 won't start on Ubuntu
Repost from Linux/Unix forum I don't know if this is the correct place for this, as I am not sure if it is Ubuntu or 7.0a1 that I am having trouble with, but each time I try to get the beta to install, it seems to install correctly, then says "Starting slimserver audio server" repeatedly (maybe 7-9 times)at the end of the install process. And when I attempt to open up the browser to http://ipaddress:9000, it is a dead link. I can stop and start the server using /etc/init.d/slimserver stop (or start), but still nothing works. What am I missing (again, since most of these problems I have are my own stupid fault) Thanks in advance.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] 7 won't start on Ubuntu
Well, here is the thing. This is happening on clean builds, nothing changed from a default install at all. Only updates. I basically build the system, do the updates, and then follow the wiki to install slimserver. On several different physical systems as well. Just to make sure, I am building a system from scratch right now, and will follow up. I am also going to install slimserver before I even do the updates. -- broth420 broth420's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1676 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38201 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta

I have tried this install on several different machines running 7.4 (both stock cd, and patched), and have not had any luck at all. Have also tried desktop and server, and it made no difference. It installs fine on my windows systems, but ubuntu is feeling left out, and on my home network, Ubuntu can't feel that way :) I am following the wiki instructions, and can get 6.5 to run without a problem at all.

After reading the latest posts on Ubuntu/Debian installs of 7x, I am wondering just how difficult it is going to be to try again to install on Ubuntu 7.04. I looked at the wiki and the instructions must be written for a way smarter linux user than me. The additions seem confusing, but then again, I am not as familar with these processes as some. At any rate, I am hoping someone has easy to follow instructions to get 7x to run in Ubuntu 7.04 server. Would love to test, if I can get it to work without 2 days of problems.
