[slim] Battery not loading on Squeezebox Controller
Hi there, my new Duet was fine until the Battery went low. So i put it into the loading cradle and the battery symbol on the controller loops from left to right, saying to me "i'm loading". After loading about 16 hours i took it from the cradle, and got the old message: battery low. I took off the battery for several minutes and it was cold, so i think there is no loading power. I did several tries, but no success. (Controller works fine in the cradle, and battery continues looping) Is there any trick i can do ? Firmware is 7.1 r2704 from yesterday's nigtly 7.2 version btw this is a RMA exchange from my first Duet, where the Receiver was broken :( -- Controllator Controllator's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11096 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49967 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] mms stream: SB3 vs squeezeslave
Squeezeslave, Softsqueeze and SB1 have no native WMA and so WMA has to be transcoded into Flac, WAV or MP3 by SC before being sent to Squeezeslave. Since Squeezeslave has no "native" capability - SC treats wma streams (both http & mms) for Squeezeslave as if "native" is disabled. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49963 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Great to hear everything is working now. Was disabling/modifying the firewall the solution to the problem (good to know)? I believe that the problem you are facing with is due to the fact that squeezecenter actually stores two references to the album in the database. The same thing occurs when you specify multiple artists by using the ';' as seperator char. I'll see if I can create a fix for it. I need to build a query that could combine the different artist results for a single album but must admit my SQL knowledge is not quiet the level required here ;-) If anyone is able to help me out by a really intelligent SQL query, I would be most happy. Otherwise i have to create a workaround in the code processing the current results which would not benefit the performance I'm afraid. Anyway. Issues is on my to do list.

It's "Default.map", and it's in the "IR" directory. If you install ContextMenu (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=47886), including configuring a button mapping for it, you'll get a Mute button that way. For instance, on my system I hold the Right Arrow button to get ContextMenu, and can then scroll to Mute Button and press the Right Arrow again. More steps than holding a single button, but it gives me more flexibility for invoking other functions. And it's easier to remember, especially on my "universal" remotes that don't have all the standard Slim Devices buttons. If you only want Mute, you can use the ContextMenu web UI to disable all other buttons. Mute would then be 1) invoke ContextMenu (e.g., hold Right Arrow) 2) press Right Arrow briefly (to select Mute) If you use Mute more than any other ContextMenu option, you can use ContextMenu's "smart" ordering so that Mute will always be the first item suggested by ContextMenu -- or rely on the fact that ContextMenu defaults to the last option invoked if it's set for alphabetical prdering of options. -Peter -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ free plugins: http://www.tux.org/~peterw/#slim AllQuiet BlankSaver FuzzyTime PlayLog PowerCenter/BottleRocket SaverSwitcher SettingsManager SleepFade StatusFirst SyncOptions VolumeLock peterw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2107 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=14921 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Problem with itunes playlists
...for iTunes to make separate playlist files. I didn't know it did that. I guess on the Mac it just keeps them in its native Library file, which is gibberish if opened in a text editor. As you describe, the XML file opens with descriptions of the playlists that reference the included tracks by number. And if I find the entry for the track number, it has the correct path statement. I can play the track if I navigate to it in SqueezeCenter via artist name or album name; it's just that the playlist shows up empty. But I've just noticed that the list of playlists in SqueezeCenter isn't right. I've changed the name of one playlist in iTunes, but even though since then I've run "Clear Library and Rescan Everything" more than once, the old name keeps showing up in SqueezeCenter.

I think wifi in general is a bit of a nightmare. At work we had big problems with wifi IP phones (Cisco 7920). Even if the phones just require a mere 100 kbps bandwidth we got choppy audio and lost connections. To make it work at a reasonable level we ended up with no more than 16 AP's, and that's in a 300 sq meter 3 storey building, running on three different channels to avoid overlap between AP's. We also had situations where we had no signal just 2 meters from an AP. At home, all my Sqeezeboxen are wired.

When I connect to the other (and better router) I get good music quality even though my signal strength never gets over 70% (with the cheap close router I can get 90% from time to time but that's rare). I've also done testing at another friend's house. He had a Duet which he was having issues with. We replaced some network hardware and it worked better, though not perfect.

Re: [slim] Dont Buy!!!!! (merged to remove cross-posting)
How about trying this: 1) Load squeezecenter on one of your laptops. Be sure to emulate the same sort of setup you have on your current server on your laptop - e.g. if your music is stored on a separate server or NAS, have the laptop get the music from the same place. 2) Plug it into the router and see if the problem still occurs. It probably will. 3) Now take the router and the laptop to where the SB is and see if the problem still occurs. 4) If the problem still occurs in that configuration, hardwire the router the SB and see if the problem still occurs. 5) Once you have it debugged on the laptop, copy the same fixes to the normal server and see if that fixes the problem.

Re: [slim] Problem with itunes playlists
Glad I searched for other instances of this problem...I recently migrated to a new laptop as my primary Mac. Since the hard disk is smaller than the one on my old iMac, I transferred my iTunes library to an external disk. (I also transferred the actual Library files, not just the music, to make sure I could use the disk with both computers during the transition.) Now I'm set up on the new computer. iTunes finds my library and playlists with no problem. The SqueezeCenter, told to use iTunes and that the files are on the external disk, has found all my songs, albums, playlists, etc. And it can find the songs by album or artist, and play them. But while it lists all my playlists, they all show up as empty when I try to play them. I've rescanned the whole library and also just rescanned the playlists a couple of times, but no dice.

[slim] Scanning doe new or updated music--
Hi! Why isn't it possible as an aoption to specify a directory to scan when one one wants to update ones's music database. As it is now we have the options of deleting all and rescan all or look for new or changed music in the full database. Both these options take loads of time if you have a large database. Wouldn't it be possible to add one more option, which which would allow you to just select a specific folder and have that scanned, retrieveing all tags, album covers and MusicIP info? It would be so much simpler and one wouldn't have to wait a couple of hours every time one has added an album!

Re: [slim] Anyone who is a bit bored.
Hi, while "polishing" my music library - and hence my SC installation - i stumbled across this "Use of uninitialized value in right bitshift" error message when scanning. I've narrowed it down to three problem mp3 tracks (creating 74 warning entries!!!). I tried various methods to rewrite/fix/repair the mp3 header using foobar->utils->rebuild-mp3-stream, mp3trim, and a few more. This fixed 2 of the 3 files, one track remains which responsible for 66 lines of log alone (priority "warning" despite the fact scanner.* is set to output only error messages) Did anybody find a working solution to get rid of those messages - or even better to fix the problem (mp3-frame-tags)? thanks!
