Re: [slim] Love My Squeezebox! What's The Equivalent For Video?
Hands down, the best video solution is a TViX (www.dvico.com). It does for video what the Squeezebox does for audio. They are still working on new and better hardware, so at this point, it reminds me a lot of the original Squeezebox with the crappy VFD (before it went bitmapped). The box aint that pretty either. Of all of the video solutions out there, the reason the TViX stands out is that it plays ripped DVDs (in single file .ISO or multi file IFO/VOBs) as if they were actual DVDs (menus and all). The TViX also makes a lame attempt at playing mp3/flac/ogg files, but it really shines with DVDs and video. They all play high def and newer models will also play h.264 files, but it chokes on high bandwidth HD files encoded as VC1 or h.264 (ie Blue Ray or HDDVD). No problems with mpeg2 (over the air high def is fine). I own 5 Squeezeboxen and 2 TViX players (a 5000 and a 4100).

Re: [slim] SlimServer not restarting
You need to set Leopards firewall to access the SlimServer. I had this problem also when I first upgraded, and it took some time to figure out. I was using version 7.0 beta but it has some interface issues, so I had to back track to version 6.5.4. In Leopards firewall you need to set it up to access the System Preference Pane for the SlimServer and Perl access. To do this you need to go to System Preferences then Security and select Firewall, click on Set access for specific services and applications then click the plus sign to add an application, browse to your SlimServer preference pane and allow incoming connections. That should fix your problem. If your familiar with the command line run netstat -an to see if the SlimServer is running. -- wb52 wb52's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13730 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40750 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Love My Squeezebox! What's The Equivalent For Video?
I would put forth in the current environment there will never be anything equivalent in the video world due to the differences in digital video, opposite digital audio. Companies like Apple and Slim/Logitech piggy backed on the success of the whole digital audio ecosystem, which grew out of an environment that no longer exists. The biggest problem I see is the lack of anything remotely similar to the ubiquity of MP3, and now that the content producers are intent on DRM, it will be a long time (maybe never) that you can buy movies in a decent format like Divx/Xvid or H.264/mkv. Instead they will shoehorn you into some proprietary junk, that will likely only play with extensive trans coding or some constant checking with their server. So we're stuck with the tower of babel, both incoming (file format) and outgoing (HDMI 1.3 and beyond). I think the issue comes down to where you're getting your video and how you want to play it, and what your server is. If you want to play anything you need a beefy CPU on either end (client or server), from what I've seen the best on the client would be some sort of hacked PC (xbmc, hacked appletv) but you're talking a great amount of prep time with the chance of bricking the device. On the back end there are a number of servers each with their own set of drawbacks, generally ranging from freedom/anonymity on one end to the ability to play protected media/corporate tracking on the other. More common are UPnP devices which have custom chip sets (usually Sigma Designs) which can trans code on the server end if you run their PC software. I have the buffalo LinkTheater DVD player, and for what I use it for, streaming Divx/xvid/Mpeg 2/4 it works pretty well, but most other things it sucks. What I like is I can stream from my NAS and all the video is done on the device which means I don't need a real server. But without transcoding it will never play my Sony SD 550 movies or any newer codecs, which I can live with for now. My feeling is Asian companies will take the lead on this as they're less worried about DRM, and don't have to deal with media companies coming after them, like American companies do. Most of the units mentioned in this thread are Asian units rebranded for a small US distribution company. So there won't be a quirky Slim type start-ups coming down the pike more like TVIX (check out the TVIX forums to see what I'm talking about http://forum.tvixbox.com/ ).

[slim] Display format when browsing music folder
I don't know when this changed (presumably at some release of SqueezeCenter 7.0), but I've recently noticed that when browsing the music folder, the Squeezebox display now shows the full pathname rather than just the last part of it. (For example, whereas before it might have just displayed "The Wall", it now displays "\\musicserver\e-drive\FLAC.N-Z\Pink Floyd\The Wall". This is actually not very useful. My typical (only?) use for Browse Music Folder is to find a new album I've just added to the library so I can add it to the SqueezeCenter database without needing to do a rescan. Now that the complete pathname is shown, even at the smallest font size the album name drops off the right hand end of the display, so you have to wait a second or two at each entry for the display to start scrolling before you know whether you've arrived at the right place. (At my default font setting - large - you don't even get to see the artist name before it scrolls!) Is there a setting somewhere in SqueezeCenter that reverts to just showing the last element of the pathname?

Re: [slim] Maxbitrate?
chesebert, This could be a Transporter buffering problem which is exacerbated by the additional small delays inherent when using wifi. The fact that you can get continuous subsequent audio - means that although your wifi may be marginal - it is OK. When a track is being played - the Transporter buffer is initially filled up and then when full "play" is initiated. It looks like the Transporter waits just a little bit too long (when using marginal wifi) before asking for the first top up of the buffer. This might because you are using Flac 24bit/96KHz files which require high datarates. I think you should log this as a bug. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40674 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
