[slim] Buffalo Linkstation vs. USB HDD for MP3 Storage
I'm not sure this question has an answer but I'm going to ask it anyway. Music playback on my Squeezeboxes keeps stopping for some reason and I'm trying to find and eliminate the cause. The problem is worse when I have 2 Squeezeboxes synchronised. I thought the problem might be wireless contention but I've just eliminated that by connecting the only Squeezebox that is playing...well until it stopped just now...to a hub. I currently use a Buffalo Linkstation on a 100mb switched network for central storage - music, documents, etc. My perception is that is slow and I wonder whether this is the issue. The Linkstation is also accessed by other machines in the network for document updates, back-up and MP3 tag edits so it could possibly be contention on the LAN connection to the Linkstation. SlimServer is running on an IBM T23 laptop (1.1Ghz PIII, 512Mb RAM) which should be more than adequate. The only other things running on there are MusicMagic and AVG (the MP3 and SlimServer directories are excluded from the on-access scanner). I'm wondering storing the MP3s on a USB HDD connected to the laptop via a USB2 PCMCIA card (only USB1 on board) will improve the situation. I guess my question boils down to: which is the more efficient of resources and which is likely to have the greatest throughput - the Buffalo Linkstation or the external PCMCIA/USB2 HDD? As an aside, are there any diagnostics I can switch on in SlimServer so it will log what's going on and, perhaps, help me pinpoint the problem? (I'm running the 6.2.2 nightly from 5th Feb at the moment but I've had the problem for longer than that) Thanks.

[slim] Re: Buffalo Linkstation vs. USB HDD for MP3 Storage
While the Linkstation is a cool peice of kit, it is limited by its relatively slow cpu (233mhz) and 64mb of ram. My Kurobox HG has a faster cpu (266mhz) and 128mb of ram and I can generate these sort of break-ups if I try to get the server to do too many things at once. Slimserver 6.2 does have some diagnostic functions under the Help Section called Server Network Health. Turn on the diagnostics and run your SBs as you normally would and then review the numbers displayed. Couple of other things to check are the ethernet cables, the linkstation may only be conncting at 10mbs, not expected 100mbs, if the cable is a bit dodgy. Also what format of music are you streaming? WAV files can overwhelm a network, whereas Flac is also lossless, but with a smaller network foorptint.

Have you tried using mplayer and/or wmadec directly (on the command line) with the URL your plugin generates for a particular Sirius station? Put aside the internals of the Slimserver code, just see if mplayer/wmadec (not to mention Windows Media Player itself) can play the URL if you run them on the command line. If so, then in theory you should be able to play it directly via the Tune In web page and SB2/SB3 hardware should be able to connect directly to the URL. But without doing the above test you can't really know if the URL itself is wrong or if there's something about the WMA stream that's confusing the WMA decoding code in the SB2/SB3 firmware.

I bought into the community and open source nature of SlimDevices because I like to tweak and modify my setup, but I can also see how someone seeing the SB in a review would not expect to have to touch a damn thing after installation. There is a dilemma here, to be more successful for those people who want to install and leave alone, then it has to be a lot more solid out of the box. No matter how many times you can point to inferior products, that doesn't make this one better. At the same time it still has to appeal to the community that contribute and therefore be fast moving. I personally think the answer is to have much more solid and well-tested releases for more general users, rather than enthusiasts. These would be updated a lot less often and be more rigorously QA'd. The nuts like me who like to live on the bleeding edge can carry our with the nightlies and betas and scratch our heads when it doesn't work. I know it's kind of like this already, but I think the builds for people who don't want to fiddle need to be more robust. The fact that Roku are tied to products like iTunes gives them that. Paul Well put! Having a stable turnkey solution is appealing for the consumer who simply wants to play their encoded music on their stereo. May be not a whole lot of options and features, but easy configuration, setup and operation. At the same time, having the SB and slimserver pieces available for hackers to make code changes or enhancements is appealing to a different group of consumers.

I think the mistake, if any, that SlimDevices makes is that they assign a target fixed version too optimisticly and end up slipping it to future releases. There is no implied guarantee that just because a feature request has been filed that it will ever be added. However, it does improve a bug's chances if it has a rallying point -- a place where a feature can be discussed while preserving the discussion for the next time someone brings it up or becomes interested. Also, the number of open bugs/features really has no bearing on the usefulness of the database. By that argument the internet would long since have been made useless for end users, because there is so much content out there.

Re: [slim] Re: next album button?
Implementation not too hard: if ffwd gets a press/hold, and you are in Album shuffle mode, clear the playlist and go get a new Album different from the current one. Similarly if you are in Year and Genre mode, perhaps? Single press ffwd skips forward to next track, whilst hold-ffwd goes into track fast-forward play for me - I wouldn't want to lose that. It would have to be another key, or make the action configurable. As another thought, can't you press right-arrow to go into song info, navigate to the album name or artist name, and press Add to remove all tracks in the current playlist for the selected item? Music would then continue with the next remaining item in the playlist. It might confuse random play with the number of tracks queued up for future play though?

[slim] Weird problem with various artist tracks
I'm using Slimserver 6.2.1. Yesterday I was listening to some flac files from a Various Artists cd and noticed that Slimserver calls the artist for various artists tracks new (which happens to be the name of the subfolder that the tracks are saved in). So for example, one tracklisting looks like this: 1. Henry Lee - Dick Justice from Various - Anthology of American Folk Music Vol. 1 - Disc 1A (Ballads) by new PlayAdd to playlist 2. Nelstone's Hawaiians - Fatal Flower Garden from Various - Anthology of American Folk Music Vol. 1 - Disc 1A (Ballads) by newPlayAdd to playlist Etc. etc. When I click on new, it brings up several of the Various Artists recordings I've got. None of the tags have new in the artist name, so I can't understand why Slimserver would call the artist for these tracks new. Also, I found that rescanning the library didn't do any good. Any ideas?
