Re: [slim] Favourites: Alien BBC anomilies
But why did the problem not exist with Radio 4 Long Wave? You said it had managed differently. Why the lack of consistency with adjacent presets in Alien BBC? Radio stations often change the specific URLs they use for a station. Most web users do not notice as they just click a listen type button. AlienBBC takes the same approach - it access the web page where the BBC holds the station URLs - parses the web pages and extracts the current station URL. This means if BBC changes the URL for say Radio 4 - your Favorite will stop working but the AlienBBC Radio 4 live will work as it will pick up the latest URL. Unlike the main live URLs The BBC squirrels the Radio 4 LW URL in a hard to parse page and rather then spend a lot of effort developing/testing/maintaining code to handle this one URL - the actual URL is put into the AlienBBC menu. It is a case deciding how best to spend limited development time. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60870 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] General Dissatisfaction
Well, a little progress, and maybe a step back. I am pointing SC to look for tracks in \\computer_name\x\music\ This is so I can copy over playlists generated on the laptop with winamp as this is how it sees the tracks. When I rescan the library, the full albums are showing the tracks at this location, while the partial albums see the tracks at X:\music\ So, the same tracks with a different path. Moreover, clearing and rescanning the library puts different tracks in the partially full albums. There are, at present, no playlists. This begs the question of how this was happening when SC just looked in x:\music, or when the tracks were on a remote drive, so I'll need to rescan to investigate. I couldn't see what version of SC you are using, or what OS+browser?

Re: [slim] You Might Be A Squeeze Geek If...
I have one of those Klipsch iPod speaker systems myself. Side by side, the Klipsch sounds better to my ears too - more bass. The two are a different design - the Klipsch system is ported (the port is in the back) and the Logitech system is sealed. When doing my comparison, I noticed that the Boom is very sensitive to location. I'm not up on speaker design, but I wonder if this is because of the different designs (sealed vs. ported). When I had the Boom sitting away from the wall, it sounded very anemic in the bass area. Once I moved it within 6 inches of the wall, viola, there was bass. My wife even noticed a big difference and thought it was pretty neat to see what a difference it makes. I put my daughter's Boom on top of a book shelf a few inches from the wall. With the volume at a decent level, I can actually feel the bass in the floor. -- maggior Rich - Setup: 2 SB3s, 2 Booms, 1 duet, 1 receiver.

Re: [slim] General Dissatisfaction
Instead of asking the original poster what browser he is using and all that, I agree with a lot of the points he made. I have tried many combinations of PCs, browsers and Windoze versions, and the performance with a large database is mostly quite slow and inconsistent. I do have a large music library and most other GUI software including the ubiquitous iTunes does glide thru the same collection with considerable ease. I can not understand how in this day and age that a database of 20-3 records could suck so much performance. And in regards difficulty to maintain, web interface does have its advantage, but maintaining a music library is not one of them. With GUI base library manager, I can sort, tag, add and delete with instantaneous ease, and I dont have to rescan the whole library after every single change. And after all these years of using Squeeze, I still do not know a one step way of adding or deleting a single album without rescanning. I found a roundabout way of adding a folder via the add radio URL. But what about deleting tracks? I recently found a solution which is to use OrangeCD and bypass the Squeezecenter interface altogether. But it would be very nice if there is an integrated solution. I know many do not agree, but tagging/Library Management and Squeeze Server belong together. The tie in of iTunes/iPod sort of proves that concept. I bought an Airport Express and was this close to moving to that platform altogether. The purchase of the nice sounding Transporter saved me from moving. -- agentsmith System 1: Transporter, Naim 202/200/Hicap/NAPSC, Harbeth Monitor 30 System 2: SB2 connected via TOSLINK to a Meridian F80 agentsmith's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1838 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60755 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] General Dissatisfaction
I really don't see why you guys constantly need to add or remove stuff : I only add new music when I buy a new disc, and never remove anything.

I use foobar2000 when I want to manage my collection, and then it gets updated next time I scan my library, no need to scan it constantly. That being said, I also fail to see how Squeezecenter can perform so poorly : It uses 50% of my Core 2 Duo E4300 @ 2.9Ghz for like 10 seconds before displaying the album list when foobar2000 does it instantly, and it uses about 150MB of RAM where Foobar2000 uses 12MB.

Besides the squeezecenter I have a upnp server running. And I set my system to search for upnp servers. The problem however is that it only pickups the upnp server on a different computer. (not the one on the same server, i want it to pick) The underlying reason why I want to use the upnp server is because Although I have everything Tagged I still want to be able to use my folder structure. Something you can do with Squeezecenter. But the problem with squeezecenter is that when you set it to use the folder structure that it doesn't show you the tags while browsing. It shows filenames. Unless I'm wrong and there is a way to show folder tagged music. I want to be able access the upnp server on the same machine.

Re: [slim] General Dissatisfaction
JJZolx;403122 Wrote: Probably not. SC currently takes into consideration the directory where files are located to determine album membership. There isn't a way. I suffer form the ame problem. I have directories of singles organsided by decades in my main flac based music library and also similarly named directories under an mp3 folder (as I've not been able to get some tracks in the flac format). I'd like the mp3s and flac files for any decade to appear as one album, but it seems impossible. I am perpetually stuck with two 70s singles albums, an mp3 one and a flac one. Annoyingly, Slimcenters insistance in ignoring the album tag and treating any files in distinct directories as different albums has no benefit at all for me (due to the way my collection is organised). :-( BTW.

Do the playlists use different looking paths to the same files that are on the local server? \\computer_name\x\music\... vs. X:\music\... If you create playlists in Winamp on a different computer then the file paths in those lists will be from the perspective of that computer and will differ from the local paths to the same files. SqueezeCenter can't tell that the paths are equivalent and so it creates two entries. The solution is not to remove the playlists, but to modify the paths.

Get rid of all playsists, and it does not seem to matter whether it is pointed at the drive, or at the share, it only sees one copy. Moreover, the duplicate tracks do not represent what is on the playlist, which is the really odd part. A can put a whole album on the playlist and have only a few of the tracks show up as duplicates. Additionally, scan (and clear) the library twice and the duplicates are different each time. Probably not.
