The most recent "official" release can always be found at: http://www.slimdevices.com/su_downloads.html You can use the "maintenance" release get small, safe bug fixes added since the last "offical" release at: http://www.slimdevices.com/dev_nightly.html To find out what version you are currenlty running open the web interface (http://localhost:9000) click on "Server Settings" and look at the bottom of the left hand frame. It will show the version and buid numbers. As for installing, I personally always just install over the previous install. I've never had a problem even when moving from one generation to the next (4.x -> 5.x -> 6.x).

You can choose which one to display by selecting it from the drop down list found in "Server Settings -> Interface -> Web Interface" There generally are not versions of skins. As Slimserver changes, the skins get reworked. If the author of a skin does not maintain it, it gets dropped. Any skin that is listed should work. Any new skins that have yet to be included in the Slimserver release can be found in the wiki: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?PluginSkins > Squeezebox > What is the most recent version of the firmware for my Squeezebox? > Where is the firmware version history? > How do I find out what version I have installed? > How do I know which version I should have given my version of > Slimserver? > How do I update to the new version? The current firmware release and version history is always included in the Slimserver release notes. They are always available from: http://www.slimdevices.com/su_changelog.html To find out what version your player currently has install, go to the Web Interface and select "Player Settings" for the plyer in question and look at the bottom of the left frame. As for what version you need, that is determined by what version of Slimserver you have installed. Slimserver knows what firmware version is required, and will prompt to do an automatic update if one is required. All that will be required of you is to confirm the upgrade by pressing and holding down the brightness button to start it. --Tom Malsbury -- malsbury malsbury's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=57 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18057 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

On your local slimserver, click on "Server settings" on the left side of the default skin. Down at the bottom is the version. Second question next, because most people talk to the slimserver through a browser. So if you click on help-> about you are much more likely to get the version of IE or Firefox or Mozilla or whatver browser you are using, and you want the version of the server. The "latest" version changes all the time, the latest stable one is 6.2.1, which is the one that the main SlimDevices page points to. > How do I update to the new version (uninstall first, or just install > over the top of my current?) The answer depends on your OS and level of paranoia. I'm a Linux guy, and I'm pretty (or maybe very) paranoid. So I first make a copy of all the important files, including copying the whole slimserver tree. Then I install the latest one using the OS-specific install packager. And try it. Some number of months later, I clean up unused copies. > How do I get it to run as a service?

You can just use them. On your slimserver:9000 page, go to Server Settings -> interface -> Web Interface and pick one out of the selection list. I don't know how the skins are versioned, someone else can chime in with that answer. > Squeezebox > What is the most recent version of the firmware for my Squeezebox? > Where is the firmware version history? > How do I find out what version I have installed? > How do I know which version I should have given my version of > Slimserver? > How do I update to the new version? Home -> Player Settings at the bottom will have your current setting. If you have more than one SqueezeBox, they may be different. The firmware revision history is included somewhere in the normal distribution, but I haven't had need to look for it in so long I don't remember where. Again, the firmware is bundled with the normal distribution, and the server knows which firmware it matches. It normally is completely automatic, except for holding down your brightness button. -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Fine with me, as I > find browsing by album title to be pretty much useless. I like this idea very much, especially since I agree, browsing by album title is kind of useless as is. That this also fixes browsing by artwork (so that the artwork will then show up sorted by artist, rather than by album name) is another plus. Is there a good tool on Windows that will let me do this? (Heck, I run Cygnus, so even a Unix tool might be OK.) Ideally I'd like to automate this so that the tag would get populated as a post-tagging step based on the values of ARTIST, ALBUM and YEAR. I swear by Tag&Rename, but it doesn't look like it can handle this tag. (I'll send some email to the developer, though, and request it.) Thanks.

Since the SB2 is 'connected' with this wireless router, can I use the SB2 as a bridge between the notebook and the DSL router.

[slim] Re: Lossy vs lossless formats - total newbie question
I am a recent convert as well, and I am starting to re-rip my CDs (I had not yet ripped my entire collection anyway) in FLAC. It's nice at least knowing they are stored lossless. As for the compression setting, don't worry too much. Think of it this way: you could always run a script over your collection later (handy also if FLAC compression is improved) that would re-compress all the music. Since it's lossless, there'd be no problem with doing this as many times as you like! I just use the default (-5), which is fast (and I tested -8, and that didn't shrink the file much). For your tags, I saw some good suggestions here for Windows. I use Linux, and I have written several Python and bash scripts to deal with fixing tags, etc. (for example, one converts my iTunes .m4a files to FLAC, preserving the tags). What I would do is once you get a parallel directory structure with FLACs and MP3s, write a script (I'd use Python) to extract the tags from the corresponding MP3 file and set the tags on the FLAC file. Remember that with FLAC, you need to remove the particular tag first (I use --remove-tag= --set-tag==), or setting it will make a duplicate tag with a the new value (and better not to have old invalid tags in the file). Let me know if you want some example code that will extract or set MP3 or FLAC tags using Python. -Joe Dan Goodinson Wrote: > Cool. Thanks everyone.

It's seriously quick though as it only looks at filenames and folders, not tags. Scanning my collection with Moose over a network takes about 3mins. For slimserver to do a rescan it takes well over 3.5hrs and is pretty unusable during this time.. If you add new music to the server, you should only need to do a Moose rescan to see and use it.. But, as mentioned elsewhere, the whole project is a work in progress, and scanning the database is one of the two big features that still needs implementing (playlist management being the other). -- - Dr Lovegrove http://www.rusticrhino.com/drlovegrove ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] bridging option
Currently I live in a trailer aprox 600 feet from our Nursery office. We have the computer and internet in the office, but not in the trailer. I've managed to get the SB2 (set up in the trailer) to connect wirelessly w/ the office computer and can stream music from that hard drive. This is cool. The question I have is, I have a notebook computer which I'd love to be able use to access the web from the trailer. The dsl and wireless router is located in the office. Since the SB2 is 'connected' with this wireless router, can I use the SB2 as a bridge between the notebook and the DSL router. I've read that the SB2 has a bridging option, but can figure out if this is the same thing or something different. (and I can seem to turn the bridging option on anyway).

[slim] Re: Wishlist: Less clunky (more iTunes-like) GUI
Well I tried out Moose, and it's great for a free program but: 1) The library doesn't deal with tags, and instead simply organizes things by directories (which doesn't work well unless you use a predictable band/album/song hierarchy and the filenames include the song titles); and 2) Unless I'm missing something, there's no way to save a playlist from within Moose. Obviously it's free so I can't complain that it isn't good enough for me, but that's not quite what I was talking about above.

A lot of them have electrical outlets inside, and you can actually use an ethernet powerline adapter to access the device while it is running inside the safe. Granted, it's not going to survive a full-on fire torture test like it would (hopefully) do inside a media safe (not that you couldn't overcook one of those, too), but it's a lot more protection than most people have short of an offsite backup.

Hi Max This should be possible with a 'special' IR file that only consists of one 'on' and 'one' off time (i.e. one bit). However the signal is always modulated with about 38kHz which means on the output you get a couple of pulses. The other problem you get with this approach is that SB and amp can get out of sync since you don't know if it's a 'power on' or a 'power off' IR signal unless you also decode the signal.

It all repends on how long a vision you have for your backup. For a really long term view, you have to periodically put the data into a modern format, and then write it out to whatever looks to be forward looking. Fifteen years ago, I backed up my critical stuff on QIC 40MB tape. Then 1 GB DAT tapes came out, so I used them. Then a few years later, 4GB DAT tapes, then a few years after that DLT. You have to expect that the physical media will deteriorate over time. More importantly, the drives become obsolete. If you have 8 inch floppies, I am not sure that anyone can read them. Even 5-1/4" floppies have been unreadable in my house. Hard disks are probably useful for 3 to 5 years, if the data is valuable, you really have to move to new drives periodically. Its an engineering and budget question, more so than technology. The only reliable long term storage is permanent ink on acid free paper. That can last a thousand years or so.

Remember that modern hard drives are designed to be run all the time. Spinning anything mechanical up and down actually does more damage than leaving it on all the time. Thus a hard drive will be more reliable if left on all the time. As far as storage, I too use an external hard drive encloser and a big hard disk.

I've had numerous people walk into my living room and flip out over the Squeezebox; one guy called it the coolest thing he's seen since the iPod (which is exactly what I said). But then they encounter the web browser interface and they're kind of let down. People are getting used to the iTunes format, and anything that isn't that easy to use is going to be a big stumbling block for the average Joe. I'm assuming Slimdevices wants to sell lots of boxes, not simply corner a small niche market. To do so, they're going to have to come up with a sexier front end. It's what the average user expects these days. Doing this doesn't necessarily mean abandoning the web browser interface, just accommodating the Windows/Mac crowd with something more user friendly. As for the practicability or programming ease of such an approach, I guess I'm ignorant about that. (I've done lots of programming, but it's all number-crunching, not GUI building).

[slim] Re: Lossy vs lossless formats - total newbie question
The biggest advantage of switching to FLAC over MP3 would be the introduction of gapless (no silence) between tracks, which MP3 does not support natively (hardware can work around this to an extent). The difference in audio quality between FLAC and a well encoded MP3 file (done using LAME VBR presets) is actually quite minimal, even on quality systems. Folks that would notice the most would be those that listen at high volumes in dedicated listening mode or with high end gear (really good headphones, etc). While I hear the difference between the two, I could not reliably pick between them at normal listening volumes. -- jmpage2 jmpage2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=17998 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

While I was writing "actually, keyboard or mouse activity" I knew I was going to get called on my brevity, but didn't feel like filling in the rest. It should have included "terminal services logins". Waking up a machine and expecting it to catch the 2 minute window would not be very reliable. Bank tellers don't do anything w/their sysystem, but their admins configure the domain servers or Netware servers/logins and this controls the teller's systems. These types of environments have login scripts, where updates, patches, etc. are run upon terminal service login. User's typically won't remain logged on in such environments, and typically don't have priv's to update their systems. So the login required to do the admin updates are domain or server controlled and privileged. Its all much more complicated than this; I was trying to simplify. -- MrC MrC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=468 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=17891 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Can you search for items in a playlist?
Hi I was wondering if there is a way to, or if there are plans to allow for searching of playlist items in a playlist. I have a playlist of real audio streams that will be approaching 600 items and it would be nice to be able to search by DJ's, dates of shows or more to the point by any string in the items description. The entries look like this. #EXTINF:-1,Jesper Dahlbäck Saturday, May 31, 2003 #EXTINF:-1,Metrologic, 370, Pole, Picadub Thursday, September 25, 2003 #EXTINF:-1,Urbs & Cutex Saturday, September 13, 2003 I'd like to be able to search for "Cutex" or "September 13" and return all matching items in the list. I'm not sure what the implications are for searching playlists since normally(with local files) playlist items would be in your library. Possibly a search playlist option that only searchs playlist items. If anyone has any feedback, suggestion ect.. it would be appreciated. Is it worthy of a feature request?

It is my understanding that there are two different behaviors with Windows and what seems to be collectively called "sleep" here. 1) For automatic shutdown/sleep/hibernate modes, the Windows Power Options controls the behavior. 2) Once the system is asleep, no matter how it got there, there is a 2 minute window to provide direct user input, or input via terminal services to log in. This allows admins to log in, do their thing, and have the system follow (1) above. If no log in occurs (actually, keyboard or mouse activity), the system goes back to the state it was in (sleep/hibernate) irrespective of (1).
