Re: [slim] Running SC on $100 Linux Wall Wart
I've been interested in a NAS for my Transporter and Squeezebox/Duet environment for quite awhile (two different audio systems) to reduce the footprint and complexity of managing files and making things a bit simpler. However it appears that previous NAS boxes were simply too slow and costly. The Shivaplug appears to fit the bill on both performance and cost. Do you feel that this platform will do the job? And, for a Linux newbie, will it be reasonably simple to install Squeezecenter and get it running properly? I'm game but concerned at this point. I'd thought about using a headless PC for this but that's a more costly solution and probably overkill and not nearly as "green" a solution. -- sjschaff sjschaff's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20566 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60617 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] squeeze box V3 not fully turning on
my squeeze box v3 has stopped working suddenly and now all it does is it turn on the display, show the logitech splash image, scroll over to the squeeze box splash image then it goes blank. a few seconds later it does it all over again in an endless loop. i have tried doing a hard reset of holding the + key on the remote while plugging in the squeeze box and it just very briefly shows the logitech image before it goes blank, then again a few seconds later it does what it was doing before, never getting past the squeeze box image. i know its responding to the remote because as soon as i press the + key it goes blank then restarts again. any help on getting it working again would be appreciated -- n0cfed n0cfed's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29584 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62359 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Weird Windows Vista question: Duplicated Music folder
Okay, so I don't know exactly when this started, I just noticed it today when trying to clean out my computer. About 2 weeks ago, I transferred all of my MP3s from one computer to my current one. I just noticed that now I have TWO Music Folders. They have the exact same directory listings, exact same contents, and whatever action is taken on folder appears to also happen to the other folder. So if I delete a file on one folder, it deletes in the other one. If you look at my C:\Users\(myname)\ , you'll see two Music folders. I have NO idea how this happened, but the only adverse effect of this seems to be that the amount of space my music takes up on my computer is duplicated. **Update: I remembered that my Tivo recordings folder is in here, too, which accounts for a lot of the data. Still doesn't explain the duplication, though! You can ignore this last paragraph!**I don't know that this is related at all, but the size of both folders appears to be extremely large...it's 43.0 GB for 2,753 files, almost all of which are standard size MP3 files. A spot check of my many sub-folders shows them all to be about the expected size (about 50-75 MB per album), so I can't tell at this point where all the extra data is hiding.*** I'm hoping someone can help to shed some light on this???

They'll improve a bit but after all the SqueezePlay menus have less capabilities and rendering performance than iPeng's native ones. On sorting: iPeng relies on the server side sorting, too, in 1.1. The reason is, that the server often has information for sorting that the client simply doesn't get through the limited interface - for example artistsort or albumsort tags. Plus it takes quite a lot of time to sort. So as long as the server doesn't support a sort order, iPeng will usually not do that, too. But I'll check whether this applies in this case, could you file a ticket? Also, I would like to hear other opinions since I'm a bit reluctant to add too many options.

Re: [slim] BBC WMA Radio streams cause my SB3 to reboot
Just doing some testing this morning. The problem has appeared again, so I'm taking advantage of it! - Direct vs proxied streaming makes no difference, the problem remains. - My Boom can play the Radio 4 stream without issue, but the SB3 keeps rebooting. - I can play the same stream on Softsqueeze 3.9b1 (transcoded to MP3) - I sync'd the Boom with the SB3 and it seemed to work, although the controls on the SC UI and the Boom UI become very slow. I think that might have been SC transcoding to MP3 for Softsqueeze though (seems very CPU intensive). So, dunno if this tells us anything, except that its probably somehthing particular to the SB3. Later, if I can get the problem to re-occur I'll try MCs idea of using specific URLs from the ASX list, and see if that makes a difference. -- chris.mason chris.mason's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3323 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60988 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
