[slim] Cable Conundrum
Hi all, I have what I suspect is a network cable problem but I'd be very grateful for any hints/tips from the forum (before I give up and resort to wireless, which is a fairly weak signal). Here's what I've tried: I plug my Boom into an ethernet wall socket. The cable from the wall socket runs back to a cable cupboard where it terminates and I've patched it into a Netgear unmanaged switch. When I select wired ethernet on the SB setup it does (seemingly randomly) one of two things - (a) it says the network cable appears to be disconnected; or (b) it gets past that step and fails to find itself an IP. Failing to even detect the network cable made me concerned about the CAT5e cable itself. A cable test came up fine for all 8 pins (my cable tester is just a cheap 'pin' tester, it can't certify the cable for ethernet use). I also tried an 'audio over CAT5' gadget and that worked fine. So I conclude that the copper pairs are all connected but for some reason the cable is not up to scratch - maybe some crosstalk or interference or something I don't understand. Note - there's loads of other stuff in the house hooked up to the same switch and it all works well. I've also tried changing around the ports used on the switch in case of a duff switch port. Finally, the SB connects fine if I move it to the cable cupboard and plug it directly into the switch (although doesn't work so well there as an alarm clock...). My questions are: - Can I force the Boom's network interface to 10Mbps in the hope a slower speed makes the cable usable? - Can I force half duplex or some other clever setting that reduces speed but increases reliability (I'm only using for compressed audio playback)? - Can anyone see anything I'm missing?! Many thanks!

Re: [slim] Need New Wireless Router
I decided trial and error was OK with liberal return policies. Since BJ's is close to my house I picked up a Belkin N router for $50. At 8 a.m. today, it is working well. I also managed to get my Belkin repeater to work (realized in all the setup networking I had to do with the SB, that I needed to point the SB to the repeater and not the router) and am now getting signal strength of 66%! Interestingly enough, although the SB got really low signal strength with the new, fancy lynksis, the 3rd floor pc got moderate reception. With this new Belkin, the SB is doing much better (even before I connected the repeater) but the 3rd floor sucks. I'm hoping that if I replace the wireless adapter up there with an N one, that will fix the problem. I may or may not try the alternate firmware with this little Belkin - it ain't broke, yet. One of the things which I constantly read in reviews is that these devices work for a day - or a week - or maybe a year. A year seems too short, but what's with a day or a week? Maybe I'll stick to playing the piano. -- mewzshn mewzshn's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22808 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57871 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

No open source, no chance to look behind the scenes, and no way to change or even look at the IR-codes manually - highly relevant in a lot of cases. This approach also means that once you bought your Harmony, you aren't likely to get any new features. They are only implemented in new products. 2) This could be ok if everything just worked - after all many companies share this policy - but my Harmony (895) is unstable and I am still having a hard time getting it to consistently send one code instead of two - this applies to codes I taught it myself as well as codes that are in the database. 3) The hardware quality (specifically the buttons) is not impressive to say the least.

I use them mostly for glue logic, for example inverting or delaying a signal, selecting between different clock sources, converting i2s to left justified, IO multiplexing, etc. SLIMP3 has the largest CPLD of any of the products - it is has a DMA controller implemented in the CPLD, in order to offload from its tiny CPU the work of pumping audio data from the ethernet chip to the buffer RAM and then serializing it out to the decoder. The hardware comparison wiki page: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/HardwareComparison shows that the decoder in SLIMP3 was a Micronas MAS3507D, in SB1 a Micronas MAS3539, but that in SB2 and later was software-based. Presumably this is SlimDSP, and I understood this was done in the CPLD so that new codecs could be added. the CPLDs in each o the products are: SLIMP3: xc95144 (DMA controller, SRAM interface, bitstream output to decoder) Squeezebox1: none (relatively fast CPU connected directly to decoder - did not need DMA or glue) Squeezebox2, 3, Boom, Receiver: xc9536xl (clock selection and s/pdif encoding - more features for handling raw PCM properly) Transporter: xc9572xl, similar functions as SB2/3, but a lot more of them eg s/pdif input -- seanadams seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57886 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Also had couple of USB drives and sometimes act up depending on phase of the moon. Lost data and partitions on USB HD. But another USB HD with exactly the same chipset has had no problems. Do a search for Pro-Lofic 3507 USB chipset. Also problems with USB printers. Motherboard chipsets are installed on both. USB is too tempremental to trust data storage. Reason why I used NAS's instead of USB hard drives. I'd be curious to know what kind of hardware you are having these experiences with. Is Pro-Lofic a top drawer semiconductor parts supplier? Maybe not the case with them, but you probably know there is a lot of crap that winds up getting into the marketplace from lower tier suppliers. People buy it based on price - crap is cheaper than reliable stuff - not knowing that the quality may not be what they were expecting. Again, maybe not the case for you, but just asking, because your experience seems quite unusual to me.

Re: [slim] TOSLINK Or Coaxial Cable - SqueezeBox Classic (3) To DACMagic
jbloggs wrote: I was wondering if there was any difference (in quality) between using a coaxial or toslink connection from a SquzzeBox Classic (3) to a DACMagic; and if one is better than the other, could someone please recommend a decent make of cable to use. Thanks. For once it doesn't matter - they are both digital. Save your money for fat speaker cables! Enough said, but if you like reading this kind of stuff: Really, you either get the digital signal or you don't. Maybe, just maybe, if you have a badly wired house (that is the outlets are at different ground potential) and you go plugging your equipment in these different outlets you may succumb to ground loop problems. Then the optical toslink (aka spdiff) cable would be safer. However, someone is sure to point out that the SqueezeBox uses a wall wart and, as such, probably has a floating ground. Coax cables are easier to find and are much cheaper. And, you are more likely to find coax switching boxes in case you run out of coax toslink inputs on your stereo. On the other hand, most stereos I have see only have 1 coax toslink input and several optical toslink input. So it usually is more convenient to hook up everything using the optical cables. I've bought moderately priced and cheap optical cables. The only difference I see is that the cheap cable ends are molded on where as the more expensive ends are built form parts. I guess if you were going to un-plug and plug in your equipment all the time the better cables will survive longer. For me, the cheap ones work fine. ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

That's fairly standard for compilers. Perlapp isn't really a compiler though. It bundles the Perl compiler and the libraries used inside the exe-package and unpacks it all before running. That's why you'll notice that the start up time is slower because of the unpacking. I know the Logitech guys use perlapp for packaging SqueezeCenter, so they could have packed it for you too.
