That suggest you have not specified the server address correctly, or the

No, you can't do that.

However, two things that might help.

1. Press and hold the button until the light flashes red slowly, and
release it before it begins flashing red quickly. This puts the SBR in
config mode and enables Net-UDAP to discover it and retrieve the current
settings.

2. udap_shell should have a command history - press cursor up to scroll
back through previous commands. Perhaps this doesn't work on Windows?

Before tossing my classic out in favor of the touch I would like to try
how the user interface is.

This has already been asked, the answer is not yet. When the Radio is

then they will also release an more up to date version of SqueezePlay
which will then provide a simulation of how the Touch will look.

I use wake on lan ( WOL ) Boom has the amazing ability to actually send
a WOL packet to the server 10 minutes before the alarm.
My WOL setup is so that my server boots up on wol signal so the server
can be off all night it will wake up in time to sound the alarm, the 10
min marginal is probably because we Linux users face a scheduled fsck
disc check every 50th boot or something.

I use random song mix for wakeup , it's always exciting what would it

Fyi Boom also sends wol when you press the power button .

Not sure if I should post this here or on the Duet forum.   have been
using a SB2 for years, and just picked up a Duet as a store demo from a

barely readable, even though the brightness control is on max.

Any idea what the problem could be? Do the batteries ever go bad, even
when showing a full charge.

[slim] Squeezebox wifi

2009-09-07 Thread bentley-farm

Hi all
I've been looking at a squeezebox duet setup as a multiroom solution.
I'm down to either the squeezebox or another well known wireless system
(not sure if were meant to mention names on here)
My question is to do with the wireless network side of things. I'm
planning on doing a wired setup to each room from a central network hub.
Do the duet boxes allow the wireless network to be used for normal data
ie act as a repeater for laptops etc, or are they only usable by other
squeezeboxes?

Thanks in advance
Rob

Re: [slim] Squeezebox wifi

2009-09-07 Thread pski

SB devices including the Duet (Controller/Receiver) are just one more IP
device on the wireless network. 

Other traffic and uses are only affected if there are bandwidth issues.

Re: [slim] more buffering/wireless issues

2009-09-07 Thread pablolie

Shredder;455818 Wrote: 
 I know this has been covered many times and I have read those posts. I
 still have questions.
 
 I am using a 20 month old Linksys wrt 100 wireless router, wireless
 G.My music is on a very fast Thecus n5200 Pro with tons of free space.
 
 The router is in the same room as my transporter, which is in the
 basement. The connection  is great. I have never had a drop. Under
 playing settings, it says the wireless strength is 97 %.
 
 My SB3 is 2 floors up. For the past 2 years, I have not had any
 significant buffering/drop issues. Maybe every 3-4 weeks, there would be
 an issue. I would reboot the SB3 or the router or my NAS and all would
 be fine.
 
 For the last 10 days, however, it has been non-stop drops. I can't get
 it to stop even by constant rebooting. I have increased the buffer and
 that has helped a little, but has not fixed the problem.The wireless
 strength is  usually around 33%, but sometimes dips to 19%. My wife's
 laptop (connected to wireless) has also been dropping.
 
 Anyway, do I need a new router, perhaps one with wirless N? Or, should
 I try something else first.
 
 Thanks in advacne for the help.

Supposedly wireless N is even more likely to have issues resulting from
site interference (mostly other people's old wireless networks).

How is the signal strength throughout the house? In my experience, the
SB can operate with relatively low signal quality (30%-ish) and still
play FLACs, but then they become quite allergic to interference. My
Kitchen Squeezebox will stop playing when I turn on the microwave.
However it affects no other SB in the house. Also, if you have the other
SB synchronized to the box affected by the interference, it'll hurt all
of them, so my theory is that it is a good idea to synch to the one with
a stronger and more stable signal.

Wireless can be tricky. The WRT100 doesn't seem to offer the option to
connect stronger antennas to it (I resent that with new Linksys models
with the fancy housing), which is one way to try to address this.

Again, check for interference - microwave or anything that acts like an
antenna- close to one of your boxes.

[slim] Living in UK - buying Transporter from the US

2009-09-07 Thread Ray70

I live in the UK and I'm considering buying a used Transporter from the
US. The spec for the TP states that the power input is100-240v, 50-60Hz
AC. I'm pretty sure this means it will work on both US and UK power
supplies, but could anyone confirm this? Thanks!

I had a similar problem, described in the thread at

In my case it made a difference if I set a value for
lan_network_address, even though I was (successfully!) using dhcp and
that value should have been ignored!

Its not very scientific, but maybe try setting dummy values for any of
the settings which still contain the factory default value.

Re: [slim] Original Slim Devices Squeezebox: wireless-g?

2009-09-07 Thread aubuti

Yes, they are the same except for the logo on the faceplate. However,
the Slim Devices branded SB3s were produced in both wifi and wired-only
versions (the wifi model also does wired ethernet). So if you need to
have wifi you should verify that the one you are looking at is a wifi
model. Offhand I am not sure how you would verify it's wifi-capable
without trying to set it up, because the antennas are internal and the
label on the bottom doesn't say anything about wireless.

 Isn't that a headphone output, which presumably includes a headphone

 the A5s to the line level RCA analog outputs using a Y-connector. That
 is definitely true for the SB2 and SB3.

Yeah, I meant to say the A5's input (mini-plug) not output.
The RCA L/R Y to mini-plug adapter cable.

A very silly question:  I usually love my tracks form the last.fm web
interface, but I know you are supposed to be able to love from the SB3
remote (and web interface?) but can't seem to find it.

I think I'm using just the standard last.fm plugin that comes with
SqueezeCentre.

Re: [slim] Tweet this album/song option?

2009-09-07 Thread MeSue

Thanks for the URL of the loved tracks RSS. 

Love this track is in the track info menu (press right from now
playing on the current track) in 7.3 or the context menu (+ button) in
7.4. In the WebUI, I think it's in the track info menu that you get when
you click a song title. 

One nice side effect of the new context menu is that it seems to make
it a little harder to do accidental loves. Before, if you just hit right
arrow twice it would love the track. Now you'd have to hit + and then
right arrow.

Looking forward to seeing what your script offers!

 linux based SFF MythTV solution?  How much $$$ are we talking?
 
 I'm sure the MythTV forums have countless threads on this topic and I
 have lots of reading to do if I decide to go this route.  I'd like to be
 able to run SC and Squeezeplay, the MythTV frontend and backend, play
 AVCHD files  blu-ray movies and attach it directly to my TV/stereo. 
 Would an atom processor (e.g. msi wind=$300) cut it?

I've been looking at the ASRock Ion 330BD.  Atom based, with blu-ray
drive small pc.  Thinking about getting this for the lounge.  It gets
good reviews on HD playback, has HDMI out (and optical audio).  Handles
1080.  The only setback is that it isn't 100% on flash based (i.e.
youtube) HD content, because the flash players aren't (yet?) using GPU
hardware.

 Anyway you can have Music-IP if you want to but it takes serious
 wizardry to set up Logitech simply *must* do a system similar to appple

 Also a lot the very nice stuff erland has done for community via his
 excellent plugins is a *must be standard* but in a simplified form,
 especially no non standard tag hacking required.
 
 And the very weak playlist creation it still not possible to edit and
 build playlist without a chosen player to build it on. You cant even
 save changes to playlist with the controller you have to scroll trough
 every letter and save it again
 The interfaces available are crude, a really nice playlist editor of
 some kind is also a *must do now* .
 
 
 

Amen on all these points.  Compatibility with Erland's plug-ins (or a
suitable replacement in the core software) in particular is a must
have before I consider any upgrade.

Do you have plugins installed? One of Erland's (Custom Browse,
probably) replaces the track info menu, and then you have to go another
level deep by scrolling down to Show standard song info and then push
right. There is a toggle for this in the plugin settings IIRC.
