[slim] Range Extenders Compatibility?
I'm trying to add a Squeezeboom to my folks setup in an old condo.The router/ap is at one end of the condo and give reliable wireless for the back half. Walls are thick and I'd rather not run cat5 down the long hallway. The circuits are multiple which I believe rules out the powerline networking. So, I'm trying to gather information about range extenders. Searching the forums gives some hints that people have had trouble getting squeezeboxes to work with range extenders, but it's not conclusive. My folks have a d-link router but d-link no longer makes a range extender that I can see. So I'm considering a setup with a LINKSYS WRE54G Wireless-G Range Extender and replacing the router with a LINKSYS WRT54GL (flash with tomato firmware perhaps?)

[slim] Powering up Bose Lifestyle Series 3 by the SqueezeBox 3 (for alarm, and sleepmode)???
Hi there, lots of years I was using a little 2.1 Harman/Kardon system, always powered on. Therefore alarm and sleep mode where working perfectly. Few weeks ago I switched to a Bose Lifestyle Series 3. Unfortunately it has a non IR Remote Control which I think makes it impossible to use IRman. It's sad that I can't use the alarm mode because there is no way to power the Bose up. And no real way to use the sleep mode because the Bose won't power down. Even if I would decide to let it powered up... which I really don't focus to do, there is still the problem of the volume level...

[slim] Why do I need the SqueezeCenter server to play my MP3 files?
Maybe a stupid question, but important for me. Even my cheapest MP3 player is capable to create a listing of all items and tags. The squeezebox Duet needs a 30-60Mb server pack to achieve this. This prevents me from using a cheap NAS for file storage. I think this really is a major drawback. What I would like: use the Squeezecenter software to configure playlists and album info files. Store these on the NAS, make the Squeezebox connect to the NAS to retrieve these info, just like my simple cheap MP3 player can do. Why would this be difficult to achieve? Al alternative would be to extend the Squeezenetwork server to support this feature. So, just store the metadata on this server and retrieve the files from the NAS. This is even more important if you want to store the files in a lossless format. Hiring server space would be quite expensive and cumbersome, due to limited download speeds. -- RudolfJan RudolfJan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20874 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54504 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Favorite Pluggins?
My must have's are most of Erland's plugins. The ones I use are Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Dynamic Playlists, SQL Playlists, and Trackstat. With Custom Scan and Trackstat I can do things like filtering my MusicIP mixes based on ratings and play stats. For instance, my default filter in MIP is for songs rated 3 and higher that have not been played in a month. With Custom Browse I can do a sort of simulated Multi-Library Based on a tag in the comments. One example is I have tagged all my husband's favorite music with a special tag in the comments, and set up a menu in Custom Browse which only shows those songs. Since our music is all mixed together this works better than the Multi-library plugin for us. It can do a lot more, like you can browse by years or decades, or ratings, or a subset of genres, or never played songs, and so on. It's all very customizable so you aren't restricted to the menus that SC provides. Dynamic Playlists and SQL playlists lets you make never-ending playlists based on stats and tag info. For example, Rock Favorites pulls a random mix of songs rated 4 or 5 from only my rock genres. Dynamic Playlists can also make static playlists play dynamically. So for example, you could have a static playlist of several hundred workout songs, but when you queue it up as a dynamic playlist it will randomize it every time. It also adds a limited number of songs to start and keeps adding one new song at a time so you don't have to bog down the server by loading a massive playlist and trying to shuffle it. Erland's plugins do have a bit of a learning curve to figure out how they all work together, but they have enhanced my listening so much! I'd suggest setting aside a full day to figure them out, if you do try them though. -- MeSue Sue http://www.last.fm/user/MeSue MeSue's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=985 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54470 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Lazy Search install problem.
When you extract the ZIP file you should get a single LazySearch2 folder - eg drag it to the desktop. Move that folder into your plugins folder. On Windows I think that means you have to move it into C:\Program Files\SqueezeCenter\Server\Plugins. Then, restart SqueezeCenter (or reboot your computer).

Re: [slim] Why do I need the SqueezeCenter server to play my MP3 files?
It's a design approach. In order to provide the most functionality and flexibility with relatively low cost/power players the heavy lifting is performed by the server (everything from drawing the screen to scanning the library to searching, etc). This brings many, many advantages over the alternatives (plugins, for one) and is the way it's always been for SD products. In terms of running on a NAS, there are plenty of NAS units which can run SC (see the 3rd party hardware forum) - but I've never seen what I'd call a cheap NAS - they're all wildly overpriced for what they actually are (IMHO). -- radish radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54504 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] General setup inquiery
Hello, I'm a bit new to the party, but there are some things I'd like to ask the Slim community, to try to get a better idea about a possible setup. I'm wondering about the interference of several Receivers in a server cabinet- does anybody have any experience related to this? We've got a fairly large house, which is very minimalistic in decoration; we chose to have as little as possible in each room. Speakers, and associated wires and devices were one thing that we wanted to avoid. There are in total 13 rooms (bedrooms, kitchen, living room, office 1, office 2, hallways, bathroom 1, bathroom 2, ...). Half of these rooms are already kitted out with cabling for speakers in the ceiling (Artsound), and each room has at least one RCA connection. (I figured redundant cabling to be cheaper than putting in a new ceiling every now and then). All cabling comes together in a technical room - where amplifiers are stocked, network is patched, domotics for lighting is controlled, etc. So that's all good ... I was wondering - as the cable is already in place - would it be a good solution to put several Receivers in the technical space? All amplifiers that are now connected to the existing speakers are already stored there (3 amps, each 2 stereo speakers) - and the Slim Receiver output could just be connected to these amps immediately. With the Controller - or similar devices in the future - it should be feasible to control every zone - unless there is interference of course, from the wireless signals ... Does anybody here have any experience what happens if you put two or more Receivers next to each other - do you get interference? Another question - more related to the specific setup I'm trying to get at - I want to save a trip to the technical room each time I'd like to listen to sound, to power on the amplifier for that zone. Is there a way the Receiver can somehow, I don't know - give a signal? In essence, this signal can be a kind of vcommand or similar, as to integrate with the domotics (Vantage) that we are running ... I'm just wondering about all this, before I'd do purchase, I'd be interested for all this to become a little clearer ... Thank you in advance, your advice is much appreciated! greetings, Frank -- criticalmess criticalmess's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20877 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54511 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Maybe I don't fully understand your setup, but if your networking (router and/or switch) is also based in the technical space, you can just connect the receivers using Ethernet.

Maybe Radish can comment on whether they were ever both in use at the same time. As for turning the amps on/off, the Duet Receivers don't have a headphone output, but the SB3 (squeezebox classic) does. IR blasting via the headphone output can be used to send signals to the amps for powering on, if the amp has such an input. I think some other amps auto sense the RCA signal to control power, but it doesn't sound like yours do. If that were the case perhaps one SB3 and one cheaper SB Receiver could be hooked to each amp, so the SB3 could turn it on when needed. -- Skunk http://www.last.fm/user/TheSkunk/ Skunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2685 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54511 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Hi, thanks for the reply, and apologies for the time it has taken me to respond. I'll come clean and admit that I held something back in my original post because I am doing something very non-standard. I actually use the genre field to store my own personalised ratings flags, including star ratings (asterisks) and mood information (a custom letter within brackets). The reason I did this originally is that I wanted portability for my ratings, i.e I wanted it stored within the MP3 tags rather than be tied to the application. The genre field was something I never used, so it seemed ideal for what I wanted to do. That is, until I moved over to SqueezeCenter... The standard search you mentioned doesn't search the genre field, whereas winamp does. For searches from the remote, it does not allow you (as far as I know) to enter symbols such as asterisk or brackets. I'm considering exporting all these tags and re-importing them into another unused tag that is searchable in SqueezeCenter, as I don't currently see any easy option. -- indypants indypants's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11608 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53777 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Lazy Search install problem.
If you've stopped SqueezeCenter then by deleting the contents of this I believe you'll clear your database (but your music files won't be affected), so you'll have to rescan, and your SqueezeCenter and player preferences may need to be reset, so that may be a little drastic. If you wanted to start by trying just deleting the contents of the plugin-data.yaml and the prefs/plugin/lazysearch2.prefs file as well then you'll not lose anything as that data is rebuilt when you restart the server. If you're unsure then I would recommend moving the contents of that folder somewhere else instead of just deleting it - that way you could always move it back again.

Re: [slim] Why do I need the SqueezeCenter server to play my MP3 files?
Home data are getting bigger and bigger. Everything: music, photos, films etc start being stored on hard disks at home. As the price of HD diminishes, no-one feels the need anymore to rip to a CD or DVD their data. So, having a server is becoming a necessity for most households: they need to store, organize, stream and backup their numerous files. Even if my listening device (duet) wouldn't oblige me to have a server software, in fact, I would need one all the same. Even my iPod obliges me to have a server software: iTunes. :) And even Microsoft released a Home Server software lately (WHS) ;) -- Themis SB3 - North Star dac 192 - Denon 3808 - Sonus Faber Grand Piano Domus Themis's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14700 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54504 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Hi All, Having a number of problems with my Duet controller recently, I noticed that I was getting the BIOD problems as many have experienced and outlined in the sticky. Given that I upgraded to v7.2.1 of SC but have had more problems since: - Can't upgrade to latest version of SBC firmware (r3191) - Unstable on both SC SN - Slow response - Controller freezing and rebooting e.g. if I go into browse an artist from my library then it will freeze and cause the controller to restart - Losing connection to SBR/Music source Hazarding a guess then I would say its to with the firmware being out of sync with 7.2.1, what do others think ?

Thanks. Depends on whether you want to use only the external drive to store all your music, or you want to use it in addition to another folder to store your music. If it's all to be on the external drive, then go to Settings Basic Settings and change the Music Folder. Either type it in or browse to the root folder where you have music stored on the external. On the other hand, if you want to use more than one location for your music then you'll need to use at least one Windows shortcut. If you can find your current music folder, create a shortcut there which points to the external drive. What I recommend, though, is to use an empty Music Folder (create one somewhere) and then place shortcuts in that otherwise empty folder that point to each of the music locations. This way it's a little easier to manage and you don't lose a shortcut in some huge folder full of files and other folders. You want to avoid circular references when using these shortcuts, so losing a shortcut in your Music Folder can be a pain and cause unexplained scanning issues. -- JJZolx Jim JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54534 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
