Re: [slim] More problems with Vista
I had a similar problem with Zone Alarm on Vista, and fixed it by just uninstalling Zone Alarm. I was running SlimServer perfectly for a few months on Vista with the default Vista firewall. Then (yesterday) I installed the new Vista version of Zone Alarm, and I then couldn't get SlimServer to work. I imagine that it may have been possible to fix it with some jiggling of zones, etc. but I decided just to uninstall Zone Alarm, and SlimServer started working again. -- Hercules Hercules's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8679 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36612 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

JJZolx;214343 Wrote: I can't think why the scanner run from the command line would be any faster than launching it from within SlimServer using the web interface. True. Although for some reason it feels quicker! In my case (about 8000 tracks) a full scan /wipe takes about 15 mins and a rescan about 2 (and yes I did check, it is of course the same from the web interface or the command line). However, if you are doing a rescan from the command line then you have the option of pointing the scanner JUST at the directory you've just added - it will scan just that directory and add the tracks. The time is nothing like proportional, but still well worth having - a quick test just now for a single added album (12 tracks) took 30 seconds to add. -- full wipe and rescan = 15 mins -- full look for changed music = 2 mins -- look for changed music in one album = 0.5 mins All figures strictly for my library/server, of course...

Re: [slim] First Surround 5.1 Webradio !
In association with Zenon-Media and the Fraunhofer Institute of Erlangen, French Broadcaster Radio Classique has launched at NAB 2007 in Las Vegas a streamed surround 5.1 Webradio.

I get this same behavior. The current song ends, but the next one does not play. Wireless signal strength seems fine.

[slim] Upgrade advice - keeping all current settings
I'm currently running 6.3.1, and am going to try 6.5.3 since I've heard several good things about it. I don't actually have all that many problems with 6.3.1, though there are a couple of things that I'd like to see resolved hence going for the newer version. Last time I upgraded (I tried 6.5.1, I think) I was forced to downgrade due to almost all tracks cutting-off a few seconds before the end. I think maybe the problem might have been affected by the hardware; since I've recently gone for SB3 (from SB1) I'm hoping I'll fare a bit better with 6.5.x But I digress. I've always found it a fair bit of hassle to upgrade slimserver what with the various plugins and stuff that I have to upgrade at the same time. This time I'm thinking of soething a bit more drastic... Uninstall 6.3.1, delete the slimserver folder, then install 6.5.3. Problem is this would wipe out all my settings (I guess). Is there a file or 3 that I could save then restore after upgrade to ensure I keep all my settings? Or is that a different/better way to upgrade from 6.3.1 to 6.5.3? Any advice appreciated - many thanks! Dan. EDIT: I just noticed that my sig sstill says 6.5.1. That's incorrect. I upgraded for a very short time, but reverted back again for reasons mentioned above. That probably means that the plugin versions are also incorrect.

Re: [slim] Upgrade advice - keeping all current settings
I think that everything you need is in slimserver.pref, plus the plugins in your Plugins directory. The location of slimserver.pref seems to vary across Windows version. In XP the default is c:\program files\slimserver\server\slimserver.pref. Of course, even when doing an upgrade over top of an existing version it's a good idea to backup this file.

Nice one - thanks dude.

It's more the preferences that I'm concerned about, and looks like you've covered those in your post above :) Anything else I need to be wary of?

[slim] Missing first few seconds of sequential streams
While waiting to see if RadioTime would support my request for On Demand being usable by SlimServer ( http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36829 ) I decided to put one for Car Talk into WikiRadio. However, this then highlights a problem. The link is to a .smil file that contains a number of segments of the show. When played on a PC using whatever it defaulted to (can't remember what it was) ... it worked fine. However, when playing it back through SlimServer (and I guess mplayer) it loses the first few seconds of each segment. My guess is that people tend not to notice this when playing a regular internet stream because once it starts it just keeps running. But when a show is in segments and tend to follow a defined pattern (a new caller starts a new segment and almost always introduce themselves ... and you miss it via Slimserver) then it is more obvious. (running 6.5.3 from release day) I haven't yet checked to see if this is a known problem - but I will search now. I thought that you might like to know that Car Talk is now available on WikiRadio first (they changed their URL syntax a while ago - so that it no longer changes from week to week so is now much more maintainable - i.e. doesn't need to be edited once a week). -- Paul Webster Paul Webster http://www.lastfm.com/user/BondJamesBond Paul Webster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=105 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36841 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

All I know is that uninstalling ZA caused SS to work again following a re-boot. I am glad to find that I am not alone in having this conflict. It suggests that there is a genuine issue between the two and not a problem unique to my setup. If someone works out a way to resolve the conflict then I will happily start using ZA again.

I am looking to use a squeezebox to access music stored on a shared directory on a windows home server based network. The music library was established through itunes and the itunes clients on my PCs can see the networked music but if the squeezebox requires special software on the PC where the music resides this may be an issue. also, most PCs are now running Vista. Can anyone tell me if there are likely to be problems doing this. -- johnfeil johnfeil's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12378 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36853 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

On your server, Windows Explorer, highlight My Computer, right click and select Properties, then the Computer Name tab. -- Wirrunna Wirrunna's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3225 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36762 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Missing first few seconds of sequential streams
... later ... the version I was running is the one that AlienBBC provides - but I did find that there is a more recent version over on mplayerhq - so I am now running 1.0rc1-3.4.2 and am hitting the same problem. I guess this means that I have to report it to mplayer itself - but could someone else confirm the problem first? From Squeezebox (with AlienBBC/mplayer installed) Internet Radio/Wiki Radio/Car Talk/Car Talk play at the end of segment one you should hear the next caller introduce themselves ... I do from PC ... but not from Squeezebox. -- Paul Webster Paul Webster http://www.lastfm.com/user/BondJamesBond Paul Webster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=105 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36841 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
