Re: [slim] SqueezeCenter Interface problems

I am running SqueezeCenter as a service.
We have previously established that the SqueezeCenter Startup Options
utility (7.0) does not properly install a dependency between the
SqueezeCentre service and the SqueezeSql service.
So I guess that when shutting down the computer the OS is stopping the
SqueezeSql service before stopping the SqueezeCenter service, and thus
causing the latter to report the above database disconnect errors.
Am I right? And if so is there a fix?

Re: [slim] Configuring a Squeezebox WITHOUT a remote control
If the issue is not having a remote as opposed to the unit somehow being unable to receive IR signals: If you know anyone who owns a Pronto (any vintage), you could download the Pronto CCF (available somewhere here in the SlimDevices resources and at remotecentral.com) perhaps you could prevail on that person to load the CCF and then you could use that to program codes into a learning remote control. Also - I notice that, in SqueezeCenter settings/players/remote, there's a checkbox labeled jvc_dvd. That would -seem- to indicate that you could get one of those preprogrammed remotes - so long as it had a way to support JVC DVDs (typically you set these remotes to your particular device by first entering setup mode and then entering the code number of your device - which you have to lookup in a booklet that comes with the remote). -- bobkoure bobkoure's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14646 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=44839 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] anyone have SoftSqueeze running across the internet?
I\'ve used SoftSqueeze to listen to music on my Squeezecenter back home across the Internet. The main bottleneck for me was the upload speed on my Internet connection where SqueezeCenter is located, since I can only get like 128 Kbps upload speed reliabily (even if I have 1500 Kbps download speed). In order for this to work I had to lower the quality of streaming to 64Kbps (or 80Kbps by doing some source code tweaking on Squeezecenter), and since the default Squeezecenter interface is \'slow for Internet use\', I use the classic skin interface to browse from the internet.

Re: [slim] Missing SB!
miklorsmith;280835 Wrote: This is the next chapter of my ever-morphing problem trying to set a networked laptop as the controller for a remote Windows server. I was able to get it up and running a while back, but it didn't work when the laptop was off, i.e. using the stock remote. I'm pretty sure the problem is the SB was seeing the laptop as the server instead of the wireless router. I tried going through the networking setup again and now the stock remote works but the laptop doesn't see either of the two players I have. The main XP computer which has the storage attached works, and sees both players. The laptop is working perfectly, is connected to the internet, and sees the networked directories in the main computer. Further, the laptop sees the players when in SqueezeNetwork, just not SqueezeCenter. All in all, the network seems to be configured except for this one crucial problem. Thanks in advance. p.s. I still haven't figured out the other niggles but operational issues take priority. Let me summarize your setup (with some assumptions), to see if I understand your problem correctly: - Main XP system w/ storage, running SqueezeCenter and connected to your home network and the internet. Let's pretend this computer has an IP address of 192.168.1.100. *Is this on 24/7, or at least on whenever you want to listem to music?* - Two Squeezeboxes connected to your home network. Let's pretend these have IP addresses of 192.168.1.101 and 192.168.1.102 (which means they are on the same network segment). - You have a laptop that you would like to use to *-control-* the music you're listening to on the Squeezeboxes. It can connect to the same network as the main XP box and the Squeezeboxes. You don't want this computer to act as a server for music--just a controller. Given this information, here's how I would set up the system: Connect your Squeezeboxes to SqueezeCenter running on the main XP box (IP address 192.168.1.100). Verify they work correctly with the standard IR remote. Open a browser on your laptop and enter the following URL (exactly as shown): http://192.168.1.100:9000 This will open up the SqueezeCenter web ui, served from the main XP system, and will allow you to control both players. *Note:* You do not need to install SqueezeCenter on this system at all. If you're using SqueezeCenter 7 (rather than SlimServer 6.5.x), you won't need to switch to SqueezeNetwork any longer as SC can act as a proxy whenever you wish to access SN services. If this isn't what you wanted (in other words, I misunderstood you), let me know and I'll try to help get you back on track. -= Jim -- JimC well, she wasn't all of that, but she sure was some of that. -- BKlaas' college buddy JimC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9428 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=44916 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Newbie said I dont Get it... is JIve...
There is another thread on the exact topic of the sbc vs nokia etc. just do a search. In the meantime, my two cents... I have both the n770 and the new controller (and I spent a day using an itouch for this purpose). I think the new controller is much better. But to be fair I should qualify that by saying: I'm a gadget guy (which, actually, is why I got the nokia in the first place); I tend to be in the one-device-for-one-function camp rather than in the all-functions-on-one-device camp; I am not very good at watching my pennies (see gadget guy above) and tend to want the new, new thing and don't get too worked up about getting my money's worth. So if you had the budget for just one gadget and you really wanted a hand-held device that could control squeezeboxen AND browse the internet then you should explore the nokia or iphone. If you want a better remote for your squeezeboxen then get the controller. One other thing, I've had the nokia for over a year and neither my kids or my wife ever used it.

Besides, the dac in the Transporter is superiour to your SB3/Benchmark combo, and it has multible inputs, so, think about it. -- Anne Squeezebox 3 Stereovox XV2 Bryston B100-DA SST Martin Logan Aeon I Sennheiser HD580 Precision Anne's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43510 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Apologies if I mention something already covered, but I just didn't get myself to work through 35 pages. Page breaks are an issue, especially when including the tracks. My current solution works in MS Word: - Disable line breaks in the Rows tab of the table properties to keep albums on one page - Use the replace command to replace all boldface font formats with boldface plus keep with next paragraph formats to keep headers with the albums I don't know if these Word features are accessible from mhtml, but it sure was nice to have them included in the output already. I like to have the table listed by Genre, but I don't need to have it mentioned (I only use three). But despite the fact I chose not to have the Genre displayed, I still get it. So I eliminate all instances of Genre, again by the replace command. Finally, I know that it is the tracks that are listed - I delete the line that says Tracks: Cheers -- ElFishi ElFishi's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15528 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41597 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] 24/96
But, if you do any signal processing, say scratch elimination, EQ to clean up, etc. then wider and higher are justified for intermediate steps. Most LPs don't have more than a 80dB signal to noise ratio, so wider doesn't gain much. But its easy to record wider, and you can then do better dithering. I agree with the quoted post and its implications for this thread's originator. Vinyl was not recorded with the specs that are sought, viz. 24/96. Although it was originally recorded to analog, and assuming pristine quality of the master tapes, you are still limited by the fact that the recording equipment at that time (eons ago in tech years) is nowhere near the specs being sought. 24/96 of vinyl without any additional editing or processing would only show up the imperfections of the source material. I assume the original poster is not intending to do any editing or processing. That being the case, not only would nothing be gained by 24/96, it might actually make the original sound worse. -- mortslim mortslim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11039 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43510 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] New Wiki categories
erland;281115 Wrote: 1. The Third-Party SlimServer Plugins entry should probably be named SqueezeCenter instead of SlimServer 2. What about third party skins, third party clients, third party applets for SqueezePlay ? It might be suitable to either name the top level entry Third party software or divide it into several entries. I was thinking of a meta-category called Third-party add-ons (or something similar), with subcategories for SqueezeCenter Plug-in, SqueezeCenter Skins, Squeezebox Controller Applets, and so on. 3. I would like some place to put setup tutorials that explains how to setup different things, specifically I'm thinking of how to accomplish different things with combination of several third party plugins. Basically, I would like to move everything I currently have on my own wiki regarding this to the new Logitech wiki: http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer_Configuration_Examples It might also be a good idea to think about the structure under third party plugins, it would be really useful if it was possible to enter some more information for each plugin not just a link to the developer site. Personally I would like to move the stuff regarding my own plugins that now is stored on my own wiki to the new Logitech wiki: http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer_Plugins This information needs to be easy to find, I suppose it could be put under a new Third party software entry or under the SqueezeCenter entry, but I'm not sure if a new user will be able to find it in either places. We could use a mediawiki template to provide a structure that would encourage developers to provide a full set of information about their app/plug-in/skin/etc. I'm not that familiar with their templates, but I'm thinking that might be a good way to get consistent information. If anyone out there does know mediawiki templates, let me know if you think this could work. 4. A Do It Yourself or Customization projects or some similar section would be interesting in addition to the DIY forum that currently exist. Making explanations about finished DIY projects available on the wiki will make them easier to find than in the current DIY forum where they are hidden among all other DIY stuff. Excellent idea. I think we should definitely add this category. 5. Maybe it would be suitable to have a Developers guide or something similar on the top menu to make it easier to find the developer related stuff which is now found in various places. I was thinking that we might create an entirely separate namespace for the Developer Wiki... that seems--on the surface, anyway--to allow for the end user-oriented wiki not to appear overly complicated, while maintaining the ability to search across the entire wiki (or constrain it to the section you want to search). Mediawiki uses namespaces for separating policy pages/discussion from content pages/discussion. They view it as public viewing and viewing intended for your editing community, which sounds a *lot* like what we want to accomplish; just replace policy with how the SqueezeCenter sausage is made and we're in alignment. -= Jim -- JimC well, she wasn't all of that, but she sure was some of that. -- BKlaas' college buddy JimC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9428 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=44957 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

The index of all the pages is pretty much useless. Not a bad thing to have, but no need for a link at the top level. You might list Pandora, Rhapsody, Slacker and etc. under Services. FAQs? Maybe that's another topic - whether FAQs should be contained and maintained in the Wiki. The current FAQ system is pretty bad. Most or all frequently asked questions will be answered in some depth within the Wiki. Following a short answer to the question, links to additional info in the Wiki could be provided. We are definitely looking to simplify the process of finding valuable info, so using descriptive categories would be a good idea. I was also thinking of importing all of the Owner's Guide / User Guides as non-editable pages in the wiki, putting them under a Documenation or Manuals category. This would be in addition to the PDF versions, so would this be overkill in your estimation? On the question of FAQs, I'm not 100% sure yet. Right now, Logitech's official FAQs are maintained by our Worldwide Customer Support group, so they can be translated, etc. I'd love to have community involvement in developing, improving and maintaining them, but I don't yet know if we can make that happen.

In the old version of SlimServer, I used the My Picks plugin to organize favorites, since that allowed renaming them, etc. This functionality seems included in SqueezeCenter. However, now I can't access real media streams - SqueezeCenter doesn't recognize them as valid playable items. How do I make this happen?

Re: [slim] SBR as wireless bridge?
I've got a MacPro 2.66 Powermac coming. It has no wireless. I currently use a laptop with an external HD to store music on. It connects wirelessly and I use the SB3 to control the music. I had used the SB3 to give Internet access to a Dell running Ubuntu as it did not have a wireless card. It worked fine. It is now out of the picture. So I know the SB3 can host wireless access for a computer through its Ethernet port. So tonight for an experiment I hooked the Mac laptop up to the SB3 to see how it might work. Once I cut the wireless connection on the laptop, the Network system preferences gave me a green light, but said it could not obtain an IP address, and off course the music library running through the laptop would not play. Forgive me on this, but it seems like I can't have it both ways. The laptop can't act as a music server when it is relying on the SB3 for a network connection? I assume when I put the Mac Pro 2.66, acting as the server, I will run into the same problem. Any suggestions? I'm going to try to have the Apple Store install a Extreme Wifi card in the Mac Pro but I've heard there have been a lot of issues on these retrofits as the 2.0 and 2.66 (now end of life) did not come standard with Bluetooth or Airport Wifi. -- Jazz1 Jazz1's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6623 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=44846 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] I am stunned:
I am in a hotel in the boonies in Nebraska. I can listen to any CD in my collection (haven't loaded everything yet but 200+ CD's is a lot of good stuff so far.) My music is in central Georgia. I fed the CD's to two PC's pointed at the same itunes library... put in a cd in and waited (or not) for the CD to eject... now it's in the library. Two PC's are faster than one. Now the CD's are available from anywhere on the planet where a wifi (or wire) connection (to DSL/cable) is available. Tools let me determine how fast the connection really is. The software will compress the lossless music I stored at home on the SqueezeServer to MP3 depending on where I want to play it. On the target end, my laptop can output digital to an external digital converter (or can just pump to headphones or external powered speakers.) Anything anywhere is incredible. Anything anywhere is incredible even without buying hardware (so far I have not On-ed my Duet) but the SqueezeBox being a remote preamp is just what I was looking for.. If you have any questions about this #@@$, the slim folks can help and if they don't, I'll be happy to respond asap.
