Re: [slim] Problem with itunes playlists

2008-07-26 Thread njanda

I've just stumbled into what I think is a very similar, if not the same,
problem.
I have a just built a SlimNAS that I have Squeezecenter 7 running on
and all my music files copied over from my wifes PC so we can leave the
SlimNAS 'ON' and access all the songs with our Sqeezeboxes. 
Trouble is the goal was to turn OFF the wifes PC and leave the SlimNAS
turned ON, (45w), but we loose access to our Itunes Playlists because
they are stored on her PC, which is now turned OFF. 
We're wanting to use her PC to load songs and create playlists so we'll
still be using itunes on it but I hadn't thought I'd loose access to the
playlists. 

Anyone got any ideas about how to make itunes store its playlists on a
remote drive/machine/NAS ??

Re: [slim] Bad experience upgrading to SC7 (pops and cracks and pause)

2008-07-26 Thread gian

although I was warned not to fix things that ain't broke, I moved to SC7
for SS6.5.4 because my Ubuntu 6.10 did not support a new printer and had
to go for 8.04.

Well, now I have the same problem pops, cracks and pauses.

Since I have a high end stereo chain I almost fainted hearing these
cracks fearing for my tweeters. Had to jump out of the bathtub to save
them!

Has this issue been fixed or should I revert to 6.5.4 right away?!

Also, my playlist are no more usable with SC7.
Has the format changed?

I suffered from pauses and very slow response times when I upgraded,
eventually solved by using a MacBook Pro as a server instead of my old
PowerMac, but even so it still pauses about 5 seconds into tracks
occasionally. Do you have any faster hardware you could try the server
on? As well as being a file size issue, it could also be a processing
one.

Hi Gian,

I chose to downgrade to 6.5.4 (actually I'm now on 6.3.1). Slimdevices
support offered to issue an RMA so that I return them the device, but I
think I'll just wait a few months until either Qnap offer a native
install on the ts201 or Slimdevices release a new version that happens
to work (sometimes things get fixed unintentionally). Pretty
disappointed with the experience but that's life.

Regards, Vincent.

I've found the same problem on a Netgear N wireless router, the working

happened a lot more since upgrading to 7.1.

I have disabled the power mgmt settings and will see if it fixes it.

Re: [slim] Problem with itunes playlists

2008-07-26 Thread Siduhe

This issue has come up quite a few times and I believe the solution
which some people use is to make a copy of the active itunes.xml file
on the remote NAS or external drive, and point Squeezecenter to that. 
This is because itunes doesn't appear to support storing playlists on a
remote drive. Should give you your playlists back (assuming all the
paths are set up correctly).

However, the problem with using a copy of the itunes.xml file is that
as soon as you change or update something in itunes, you need to make a
fresh copy of the file.  It's possible to automatically create a copy
using something like Robocopy (in Windows).

Re: [slim] MusicIP Rocks!

2008-07-26 Thread technojunkie

I've been happily using MusicIp for a few months now but I'm still
trying to come to grips with the way the software creates a playlist. I
understand that, when using MusicIp with SqueezeCenter, it is the
settings within SqueezeCenter that dictates the outcome of the mix.
However, whatever song I base the mix on, a different song from the
same artist/album is repeated several times within the mix. In many
cases, songs from the same artists/albums are repeated within the mix
which greatly retricts the variety of the mix.

I had understood the MusicIp selects songs that are
sonically/acoustically similar to the seed song but, if that were the
case, why am I getting songs in mixes by the same artist/album that are
sonically/acoustically nothing like the seed song ?

No, please look at bumpydog's post again. It suggests something
completely different: (1) making play behave exactly like
press-and-hold-+ , and (2) -not- having a separate party mode at all,
but making (1) the standard behavior. Removing one function to
implement a duplication of an existing function doesn't make sense to
me, so I was looking for a little more explanation.

OTOH, your idea of a party mode makes a lot of sense to me.

[slim] .aspx?

There are a number of podcasts that I would like to hear via SB3, but
they are in .aspx.

If I access them via iTunes on my computer there isn't any problem.

However, if I enter the identical address into my SB Favourites
(podcasts) page, and then try to access them via the SB3, I get an
error message stating that it isn't a valid .xml file.

Strangely, I get the descriptive details contained in each podcast, but
cannot access the actual audio podcast.

Any ideas?

If I recall correctly it used to be easy to do this with the standard

it's easy to do this with Erland's Dynamic Playlist plugin, which is
what I use in place of Random Mix now. 

As an alternative, you could also get what you're looking for by
selecting Music Library  Genres  [choose genre]  All albums and then
turn on shuffle play. Shuffle play is far less efficient than random
play, but it's the same idea.

I started out a few years ago (well, ten or so) not wanting to throw
away the PSs on some gear I was discarding. So I started a box. About
five years ago it grew into an exchange - my neighbors (I live in a

something they come rummage through my crates... so I may be
overstating the ease of finding a non-switching PS.

That's not how I interpreted the OP, but perhaps I'm reading it wrong. 
I think Party Mode should not be the default, but rather a mode you
can select.  When I posted my enhancement request, I did suggest that
the Play button have an alternative use while in this mode (perhaps as
Add Next, as opposed to pressing and holding the + key), as opposed
to being totally inoperable.

[slim] Problem: Ethernet appears disconnected.

2008-07-26 Thread jma

My SB3 has been working great since I installed it in January.  Two
nights ago, however, the following appeared on the screen:

Problem: Ethernet appears disconnected.
Please check your network connection.

It has always been setup with the wired connection only (its location
does not have good wireless coverage).  I have verified the network
connection works with my laptop.  I have also tried the SB with another
cable at a different LAN port (another known working one).  I have tried
resetting to factory defaults, but I get the same message when I try to
go through the network setup.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Re: [slim] Multiple Albums?

2008-07-26 Thread WilCox

I have the same problem as the OP.  Albums that were fine a year ago
have started separating themselves.  This all happened when migrating
from SlimServer to SqueezeCenter.  I have been slowly trying to put
things back together with mixed success.  None of the options within
SqueezeCenter seem to solve problem, so it seems manual intervention
with tags is required. With 1300+ albums, it's a task that will take
some time.

[slim] dropouts with hardwired Duet

2008-07-26 Thread jds

I got a Duet about 4 months ago to replace my dying Roku. I have had
dropouts and lousy connections for the first 30-60 seconds of any
selection (but not after that) since day one. 

My music is all stored on a ReadyNAS NV+.  I am running in hybrid
mode -- the Duet is hardwired to the network via Ethernet. When I first
started using it, I had to run SqueezeCenter on my desktop, and the
problems began.  Since then I have upgraded the NAS firmware to the
latest version, which allowed me to run SqueezeCenter directly on the
NAS.  Same problem.  I messed with the SqueezeCenter settings -- same
problem.  Tried using wireless mode -- same problem. RMA'ed my Duet and
had it replaced under warranty -- same problem.

To be as specific as possible, when starting any song, album, or
playlist, the music starts after several seconds, then stops (and the
bright white indicator dims), then comes back after 5-20 seconds (and
the indicator brightens).  This repeats several times, then the rest of
the selection plays  without problem, unless I fast forward to the next
song, in which case it returns for the first minute of playback.

Most of my music is AAC format, ripped @ 256 OR 320kbps. On the few
tracks I have ripped at lower bitrates, the players seems to work just
fine. Internet radio plays without problems, so I suspect it is a
either a server-side issue or a buffering problem.

The NAS was perfectly capable of streaming at these bitrates to my
Roku, so I don't think it is a problem with the Infrant.

Has anyone else seen something like this?

[slim] Problem with installing Squeezecenter - should be easy...??

2008-07-26 Thread cronshd

Hi 

Can you help with this situation?

History:

1. Have had Squeezebox with SlimServer installed and running under
Windows XP, connected via wireless network to a Server box. That has
worked fine - apart from the odd hiccup for 6 months.

2. I decided to install the 'latest and greatest' version -
Squeezecenter (SC) - and this is where it started to go wrong


Symptoms

1. SC does not recognise my Squeezebox.see the following screen

SCREEN1.DOC

2. If I then change URL to the following:

http://server:9000/

then I get the old Slim Server interface


3. And SlimServer works fine for a while (I can do most things ok) -
until I get this screen - 

SCREEN2.DOC

and clicking on OK gives 'Page not found' for the SlimServer player. I
can Refresh and it comes back - for a while..then just repeats
that problem.


---

So - clearly SlimServer (old version) can find the Server - and the
music ok. The questions are:

1. Why doesn't Squeezecenter find the Squeezebox?

2. Why does SlimServer reappear?

3. What do I need to do to get this working ok (either the old version
of SlimServer or the new Squeezecenter...)?

Things I have done:

I have installed the latest firmware to the Squeezebox - by holding
down the Brightness button.

I have rebooted the Squeezebox several times - been through the Set up
several times.

Thanks, David

[slim] Browsing music folder: SB3 doesn't show tracks in some dirs

2008-07-26 Thread pipetman

I've started ripping my CD collection to flac a while ago and have
gathered a fair amount of files by now. I have them all neatly
organized in folders, so I select my music on the SB via browsing the
music folder (and not via tags, as album, artist etc). 

Much to my dismay, I have noticed, that in many cases the SB doesn't
display tracks within a directory. Usually, by pressing the right arrow
on the SB remote, I can move down the directory tree and finally end up
at the track level. In the cases above, I get stuck at the parent
directory level and instead of tracks, the SB displays TITLE: (and
then the directory title). I have checked the path length and it is
always below 255 characters (so that shouldn't be an issue). What's
causing this? How can I fix this?

Thanks. - p

Re: [slim] dropouts with hardwired Duet

2008-07-26 Thread bpa

There have been a number of different problems with sikialr symptoms
when playing AAC.

Unlike Roku which can play AAC files natives - AAC files must be
transcoded with the SC Server into Flac or MP3 and the Flac/MP3 is then
played by the SBR. SO your problem is not the NAS but more likely to be
the transcoding process.

The problems that can arise from the transcoding vary from the utility
errors, server overload or network problems (Flac requires 1500kbps) . 


First - describe your system OS, SC version, PC type, network etc. 

Second - do MP3 files play OK ? If they play OK then the problem is not
the Duet hardware but most likely transcoding or network related.

If MP3 files play OK - can you play Flac files OK ?

Unfortunately, after much examination, I found that there was never an
error on my part. Although some albums has a Disc 1 designation, and
some did not.. that did not explain the multiple albums with the same
Disc number designation.

However, changing the setting to combine multiple disc albums has
gotten rid of my problem, where tag fixing did not.

Re: [slim] dropouts with hardwired Duet

First, thanks for trying to help.

I just ripped a CD using MP3 instead of AAC -- still having the same
problem.

I am ripping using a PC, but the whole point of setting up
SqueezeCenter on the NAS is that the connection does not rely on
anything but the Duet and the NAS being powered up to work.

As part of my own troubleshooting, I moved the Duet around on my
network so that there was only a single Netgear router between Infrant
and Duet -- no improvement.

 I am ripping using a PC, but the whole point of setting up
 SqueezeCenter on the NAS is that the connection does not rely on

Ideally when using a NAS you should play formats that are native to SBR
- which are MP3, Flac, WMA and OGG.

Playing AAC files will only work if the NAS is capable of transcoding
AAC files in realtime.  I think the NAS CPU may not have enough CPU to
decode AAC and then re-encode into Flac/MP3 in realtime. Other Netgear
NAS users may comment about AAC files.

However, if MP3 files also have the same problem then it look like a
network issue.

Can you play MP3 or WMA internet streams without problems ?

I'm really hoping for a solution here, or at least some form of update.

Re: [slim] dropouts with hardwired Duet

I don't think it is a processor power issue, because once the
intermittency issue subsides after the first minute or so, it works
just fine for a long time -- hours if I have Random Mix going.

I have 200 Gigs of music encoded in AAC. It played back fine on the
Roku (until the hardware started falling apart). I definitely did NOT
understand that the Squeezebox could not play this common format
natively when I got it.  The reviews I saw all looked like this:

blockquoteThe DRM issue notwithstanding, the Squeezebox's file
compatibility is otherwise stellar: MP3, AAC, WMA, WAV, AIFF, FLAC,
Apple Lossless, WMA Lossless, and Ogg Vorbis files can all be streamed
without issue. In other words, if your music files are free of DRM
restrictions, there's a good chance the Squeezebox will play
them./blockquote

http://reviews.cnet.com/digital-media-receivers/logitech-squeezebox-duet/4505-6739_7-32815168.html

I noticed that if I pull the Ethernet cable out while the Duet is
playing it takes a long time to empty the cache and lose playback. If I
had to guess, I'd say the player is starting playback with less than a
full cache, which runs out causing the dropouts. If there was some way
to tell it to fill the cache before beginning, all would be well... 

bpa, your help is greatly appreciated.

But I found I still needed iTunes for certain things (can't remember

iTunes. I don't use it to manage my PC library (which is mostly FLAC
anyway); I *only* use it to transfer (transcoded mp3) files to my iPod,
and to manage playlists on it. (I have sync disabled on my iPod, as I
don't really want a (direct) copy of its contents on my hard drive.
Well, the full picture's more complicated, but you don't need to hear

I think that MediaMonkey can be used to transfer files to iPods; but
last time I looked it didn't offer anything extra that made me want to
switch to it (though I do use it for other things).

Re: [slim] dropouts with hardwired Duet

2008-07-26 Thread bpa

 
 I don't think it is a processor power issue, because once the
 intermittency issue subsides after the first minute or so, it works
 just fine for a long time -- hours if I have Random Mix going.
 
IIRC The ReadyNAS processor is a custom processor which does not not
floating point support so decode AAC and re-encode into Flac is going
to be hard work for it. But I don't have a ReadyNAS and other user
should add their real life experience as to whether it adds any
significant delays.

Regarding AAC support - unlike a Roku which just gets data from a file
server.  Squeezebox playback depends on a SqueezeCenter for music and
display so whether AAC support is in SC or SBR is irrelevant as you
need both an SC and a player (i.e. SBR) to play music.  
The issue of native formats is really only significant when using
Squeezenetwork and AAC is only used in very few streams and so it is
not significant in terms of sites that cannot be played.

Back to your problem - you should try Server  Network Health under
Help and see if the Network test and perf monitoring can point to a
problem area.

[slim] Network Help- Duet

2008-07-26 Thread jh901

My Linksys router has performed well with the Controller, my 2
Receivers, and SC (which sits on my NAS) for the first month or so. 
Sometime over the past 3 or 4 days I began having response time
problems with the controller or connecting to SC on my computer.

The music streams fine, but moving to the next track in a playlist or
pausing, for example, takes about 15 seconds using either the
controller or SC.  And tonight, I'm having major problems.  Can't
connect to my NAS, music is cutting off and the light on my bedroom
receiver is turning blue.

Reset your SB.i.e. Disconnect the power cord. Hold down the Add/+ button

Re: [slim] Embarassing Audition

2008-07-26 Thread danniboi

HAHAHAAA I also have to talk to the Cxo's from time to time and have
gone with the phantom demo trick before. Too funny. When I say
audition, I really meant to speak in audio-dork speak. It was over at
my bosses place, he has silly gear (his speakers cost more than my
first car) not that my system is anything to sneeze at his makes mine
look like a bookshelf system from costco. It was frustrating to finally
get my duet, play with it for a few dyas and then be able to reproduce
it over at his listening room. Even more frustrating that when I
brought it back to my place, I plugged it in let it connect and
eveything worked great... I didn't feel too stupid.

Well, that was Friday. Saturday is here and I am hosed again. Here's
what I know...

I can get to Rhapsody, I can search, I can see playlists, I can see
channels...

When I try to play anything off of Rhapsody... no dice. It just sits
there, actually says its getting the track info, and then it just sits
there.

I have tried everything including Factory Reset, switiching music
sources, trying my neighbors wireless network UGH!

I have had my duet for about three weeks and when it's working its the
best thing since sliced bread, and now I am addicted to it,  and I'm
too lazy to get off my ass to change CD's.

It looks from reading further on the forums tonight that there is some
sort of problem with Rhapsody and SB, hope it gets solved soon as it is
making me grumpy.

Re: [slim] MusicIP 7.1 automatic re-scans

2008-07-26 Thread Harry G

I have been testing MIP with about 2000 tracks to see if it made sense
to use with my very large library. 

I've been very happy with its functionality but when I tried to add a
few more CDs I got similar results to those of tfish. Even though I
could mix these newer tracks with MIP's own GUI and they showed up in
Spicefly's web Gui, I can't get them to mix in SC. 

In my case, MIP appears to stop the rescan completely after 70 to 80
tracks. When I finally tried a complete SC rescan, I get the following
results. Note that it stops everything such that I now have no access
to my artwork as the rescan stops before it even gets to the artwork
rescan. I have now tried this several times and get consistent results
each time.

Can someone please give me some direction?

My experience of the MiP GUI with large volumes of tracks is that it
isn't particularly stable, irrespective of platform. Whilst I'm not
aware of any issues archiving tags with the current releases of MiP, I
recommend you break your library down into more manageable chunks for
the archiving operations - see the wiki entry for an example of how you
can break it down.  If you've currently got one .m3lib file covering the
whole shooting match and it was generated in MiP GUI under Windows, make
as many copies of it as you create sub-folders to move parts of your
library to, then move a copy of the .m3lib into the root folder of the
portion of the library you want to work on and have MiP GUI refresh
songs using that m3lib (ie double click on the .m3lib file and select
refresh from within MiP GUI.  it'll eliminate the tracks it doesn't
find from that copy of the m3lib.  Once that'd done archive the
analysis.  There are no RG compatibility issues.

As a parting comment, whether or not you choose to archive the tags,
you should have a backup of your library.
