[slim] Re: Qnap TS-101 Update
Hi, As nobody else is experiencing slow performance using Squeezebox with a remote I can only come to the same conclusion as others have and that is that downloading torrents at the same time as using SlimServer will have a performance impact. Yes the TS-101 can handle multiple operations at once but please keep in mind the specification of the box when trying to push it too hard. I will try downloading a few torrents myself via my box and see how it impacts the SlimServer operation and come back to you. As for assigning drive letters to shares, nobody else has indicated any problems with this so please email me with further information about your setup.

There's very little security, nobody knows about vulnerabilities. It's really not meant to be opened to the world. If you have another computer or (good) router on the player's side you could build some kind of VPN or SSH tunnel to protect your server. Or install a real firewall which can limit access to the server to certain IP addresses.

You're using the mailing list aren't you? :-) I guess this would have sorted out my problem and was the ony way I could have done it as I was not on the same network and without Remote Access (so neither DJanGo or bpa's suggestions would work for me) Still, I don't think that a simple "Restart Server" button on the "Server Settings" home page would go amiss.

In Windows you can go to Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management. Start this and with a right klick on Computer Managment [local] you can connect to another Server and start / stop Services.

[slim] Can't find iTunes music (6.2.1 on WinXP)
Slimserver can't find any of my iTunes music anymore. It used to work fine, but after I did a "clean and re-scan" last night it now shows zero songs. I've tried both specifying the paths and leaving it on auto-find with no success. Attached is a debug log, probably with way too much debug switched on, in which I can't see any sign of Slimserver actually looking for my iTunes music when asked to do so. I'm using iTunes version 6.0.1.3. There's nothing obvious on the bugs database about this and I don't want to simply install the latest Slimerver without a sign that it would have a positive effect. Is there an expert here who could take a glance at the log and tell me if they can see anything obvious going wrong? Apologies in advance if I have posted this in the wrong forum etc, - please point me in the right direction. :-) +---+ |Filename: log.zip | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1101| +---+ -- Rob Meades Rob Meades's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=533 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22431 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Sorry, I should not have mentioned rescanning my music files. It was a Red Herring. No I needed to restart SlimServer to pick up some newly installed plugins. Due to change of physical location I did not have physical access (or even Remote Desktop access) to my SS PC so I opened up the web interface from another PC to restart SS. Hope that's clear.

Re: [slim] Re: How do I stop/start SlimServer from web interface
The reason I want to restart it is because I've just installed your Biography and Album Review plugins. Now _that_ would be a good reason :-) To get them to appear on the SS interface I need to restart the server. You can set the server to recognize plugins without restart (top option in the plugins section). Anyway, I've restarted SS (the hard way!) and I can't see any links to your plugins. I guess this requires another thread in the third party plugins though. Please do so (and answer the following questions over there: check the d_plugins output - do you have the additional modules installed (see my web page)). -- Michael --- Help translate SlimServer by using the StringEditor Plugin (http://www.herger.net/slim/) ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

If you are windows based - stop / start slimserver from the systray app or you could create a script to start / stop the slimserver services.

[slim] Re: How do I stop/start SlimServer from web interface
Funny Michael, The reason I want to restart it is because I've just installed your Biography and Album Review plugins. To get them to appear on the SS interface I need to restart the server. It would have been easiest to do this via the web interface and I was somewhat surprised to see that there didn't appear to be a stop/start function on the web iterface. OK, what I want is a restart function I guess. Once it's restarted the web interface will continue to work (I magine?), won't it? Anyway, I've restarted SS (the hard way!) and I can't see any links to your plugins. I guess this requires another thread in the third party plugins though.

You can't.

Re: [slim] How do I stop/start SlimServer from web interface
I know I'm being really stupid but please would someone humour me and let me know how I can simply stop and start SlimServer from the web interface. I don't want to rescan my music files. IMHO there's currently no way to do so. Would be easy to create a shutdown plugin.

[slim] Mac OS X nightly not 100% universal?
Hi - I've been running various 6.22 nightly builds on my new Intel Mac Mini over the past few weeks. And everything's working great! Thanks so much for getting a universal version out so quickly. One question: it appears that whichever nightly version I use, there is always one process spawned by SS - mDNSResponderPos - that is a PowerPC process (according to activity monitor). Shouldn't this process be Intel also? Although it has a small footprint, this is the only PowerPC process running on my Mac. I'm therefore guessing that it alone is forcing me to use Rosetta - and draining system resources unnecessarily? cheers Chippy -- Chippy Chippy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=247 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22427 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
