Realistically two months which will put us at the end of May for 1.2 Playback is a development effort. iPhone does not support audio streaming so you have to do that yourself and integrate it with the local playback. iPhone 3.0 offers some promising new things, fist of all video (not audio) streaming, now you can actually use the video facility for audio, too, so that could be an option.

Paying for rollout of those to existing customers is something I probably can not handle (and don't want to: investing a lot of work to add features for people who did already purchase a product is one thing, me _paying_ for them to get additional features is something else) so the ability to add those codecs as an option adds to the chances... -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55514 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Unfortunately squeezeslave doesn't support mono files in any format. Only 16bit 44.1KHz stereo streams, everything else needs to be transcoded on SC. Or as you have done, convert the file before added it to the library. Not sure but SC might be able to convert mono streams to stereo using sox on the fly.

Good to hear! :-) > So my last question (I promise!)... is there any security risk or danger > using an open DNS rather than Comcast? I don't want to be exposing > myself to anything/one nasty! There shouldn't be...OpenDNS has been around a while and uses their service as a business while your Internet provider views DNS servers as a waste of money - something they have to provide and reluctantly do. OpenDNS is at least as secure as your ISP's DNS, probably more so - if it's compromised, OpenDNS's future as a business is in serious jeopardy. That's the core of their business. The only security threat posed by the DNS system as far as I'm aware of is "DNS poisoning", where the bad guys redirect DNS lookups to sites they control. DNS converts IP addresses (not very human friendly) to website addresses (much more human friendly). So when you type: www.google.com into your browser, your computer asks the DNS server "I'm looking for www.google.com, what's it's IP address?" The DNS server responds: 208.67.217.231 So then your computer asks your router to send a request to 208.67.217.231 and Google serves you up a web page. If the bad guys manage to compromise the DNS server by poisoning it, your request of www.google.com could resolve to 4.2.2.1, controlled by the bad guys! (Don't worry, 4.2.2.1 is actually a DNS server out there so it's harmless!) Tip: you can enter an IP address directly into your browser, but it's unsafe to do so. You never know where you'll end up. You can actually type 208.67.217.231 into your browser directly, Google should come up. Your computer isn't doing any DNS lookup if you do this and will serve up the website a tiny bit faster as a result, but remembering those numbers is harder than www.google.com, isn't it? However only do this if you're absolutely sure that the IP and website address match. The only downside I can see to using OpenDNS is that it's outside of your ISP's network and is subject to a bit more lag time and Internet congestion. Your ISP's DNS servers, located inside their own network, should be physically close to you with good connections in between and they would be fast if your ISP didn't try to cram as many users as possible onto as few servers as possible. -- Mark Lanctot Current: SB2, Transporter, Boom (PQP3 - late beta), SBC (early beta) Stored: Boom (PQP1 - early beta) Sold: SB3, Duet Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=61709 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] iPod Genius similar to MusicIP
It’s actually "Power Searches" (you need an activated key for this, i.e. the paid-for MIP — well worth the money, btw). When using the GUI, you’d input something like ?GENRE CONTAINS \"TRANCE\" && BPM >= 140 && BPM < 150[/B] OR [B]?SEVENTIES && GENRE CONTAINS \"ROCK\" && ALBUMTYPE = \"LIVE\" into the Search field (the "?" at the beginning denotes a "power search"). Be aware my examples use extra keywords and fields I have set up in the MIP library. When using the http API, these can be used like filters. See also 'MIP http protocol' (http://www.musicip.com/mixer/httpprotocol.jsp). the first of above could (for instance) be encoded for the API as Code: http://localhost:10002/api/mix?filter=?genre%20contains%20%22trance%22%20&&%20bpm%20%3E=%20140%20&&%20bpm%20%3C%20150 in order to get a "Trance Mix". -- Moonbase Moonbase: 'The Problem Solver' (http://www.kaufen-ist-toll.de/moonbase) Moonbase's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21594 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=52410 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Bring it on :) This is a very good point, indeed! I would absolutely prefer buying FLAC files from music stores, but this doesn't seem to catch on very well. I guess it's just too much fuzz for tech support to teach customers to convert their newly bought digital music into a format that is compatible with their digital music player (into mp3 that is). So, I'll gladly start buying mp3HD:s if they start showing up. Converting to FLAC would be no problem for me. Anything that helps bring us lossless music purchases is a good thing, no matter how silly the suggested idea of carrying a 10+ MB/min lossy sounding file in your mp3 player is.

Actually this is provided to you automatically. Just like the DHCP server in your router, your ISP has a DHCP server as well that hands out public IP addresses - you will find your modem has a public IP address on its Internet side and you can find out what your public IP address is at www.whatismyip.com Included in the DHCP communication are also the addresses of two DNS servers. Your modem can pick this up and you may find these addresses get automatically added there or in your router. To test which servers are faster, ping them. > Thanks again for all the help!

First off, if possible, connect wired - wired is always preferred to wireless. Second, why are you in b/g mode? Do you have "b" devices? This may be reducing your wireless network bandwidth. If you don't need to support "b" devices, switch to "g" only. If still having problems, suggest you check for wireless interference... may want to try changing your wifi channel.

Starting with MusicIP mix or just letting Sugarcube do the mixing, listening and exploring my collection has never been easier. 90% of the time the mix stays on track, but sometimes it can drift into a whole new genre/tempo quickly, but every Squeezecenter interface supports MusicIp so its easy to get back on track. Also sometimes the fingerprinting can flag whole collections/albums as similar, so you make a mix and its basically all the songs in the album shuffled. I thought it was a low bit rate thing, but it extends into some CDs I ripped myself at high bit rates so I don't know what it is. The biggest danger/downside is MusicIP going under which to casual observer seems to be a real possibility. Their forums are dead and development has slowed to a crawl. Also a lot of the newer features are only available on the Windows gui which is unfortunate. But even if they went under the software would still work, I hope. So one strong vote for MusicIP.
