Re: [slim] Broken Remote for SB classic.

2010-06-26 Thread plympton

When you called Logitech, did you ask for a replacement part, or did you
say your remote had broken?  I called and just said my remote had
broken, and they sent me a replacement for free as a one time
courtesy.  I didn't argue with him - I'd have happily bought it, but I
hear (from you and others) that you can't.  Weird.

He needed some number that's on the bottom of Logitech SB's, and not
present on Slim SB's (it's a short text+numbers combo) - without that,
they can't do it, I think.

Re: [slim] iPeng on iPad - How should it look like?

2010-06-26 Thread foolio

How will we be notified when the app is available?  If it's a universal
app we'll find out on our iPad that an update is ready but I thought I
read earlier in the thread that it might not be universal.

Will this thread be updated or is there some other thread to subscribe
to?

Re: [slim] DSBridge - A simpler way to stream Spotify

Amazing. DSBridge works again, changed to the older flash player,
voila!!

I can confirm that by removing the latest Flash version and
reinstalling version 10,0,45,2 my install of DSBridge works again. This
appears to only be an issue for XP users.

Thank you. Still interested in how you found out about this problem. 

For a long time I have tried to make my Squeezebox server load, but
without luck.
I dont want to hijack this thread, but there seems to be a lot of

Sorry avta - missed your question in your last post, As ever the answer
is Google' as in I googled 'Dsbridge' and on the first page the last
site was the one for the link I posted.

I cann't take any credit as obviously other people had worked this out
before - I just passed on the link. Still I guess that's what these
communties are for. Glad it solved your problem too.

[slim] MusicIP Broke?

2010-06-26 Thread Stessull

I have been using MusicIP on my Mac OSX 5 for a year now with no
problems, now all of a sudden MusicIP will not read any songs in my
directory and if I ask it to sync with ITunes it goes through the
motions but still shows that there are no songs in the library. I
rather foolishly cleared the library and asked it to scan again and now
MusicIP thinks I have a library of 0 songs whereas there should be
showing around 14,000. Help anyone?

You may run into issues with tagging. WAV files don't have a standard
tagging approach for metadata. I'm afraid you'll scan these into SbS or
the tinySB in a touch and end up with lots of files called track 1,
track 2, etc.  I hope I'm wrong.

Re: [slim] Transferring itunes library to USB storage?

2010-06-26 Thread aubuti

Glad to hear you got that sorted out. You should really consider
converting the files to FLAC instead of WAV. FLAC is lossless, so it's
the same sound quality as WAV and Apple Lossless, but (a) it takes up
only 30-50% of the disk space as WAV, (b) it takes up only 30-50% of
the network bandwidth as WAV, and (c) it has good support for tagging,
whereas there is no standard for tagging in WAV.

You can convert from Apple Lossless (including transferring the tag
info) with dBpoweramp Batch Converter and other software. You can
convert from wav to FLAC with a lot of software, but the problem there
is you have already lost the tag info (other than what is revealed by
the file and folder names).

The only downside is that you can't play FLAC on iTunes, but you can
keep your Apple Lossless for that.

If you own a Win Mobile device just test the software :-)

And than give some comment. It is necessary your Win Mobile Phone have

The XDA Developers give you a good guide how to flash an old phone to
the modern use. But for SlimControl the pda Software you do not need
it.

Download and try it. After registration you get full access.
Here in Forums there are longer threads about the PDA Controler
SlimControl. I have A Duet and 2 Classics, But i like the SlimControl
more.
But for the most Users If they have Android or IPhone or WinMobile they
all like this Mobile Phone Remotes and Controlers more than Logitech
remotes.

Ditto.  I asked how to get ahold of a transporter remote.  They said

[slim] tweak Sync settings per *STREAM*?

2010-06-26 Thread plympton

I have a problematical stream driving me nuts with sync problems - I'm
sure the bug will get fixed eventually, but would like to do something
about it now.  It's 100ms off (SB3 needs a 100ms delay vs. Touch)  For
all music (streams, Pandora, MP3's), it's in sync.  For a single
stream, it's 100ms off.  It's just enough to drive me bonkers, and my
WAF has gone WAY down!

Anyone know of a hack where I can throw in code like:

If (now_playing == problem stream.m3u)
SB3_Kitchen_Player_Audio_Delay = 100ms;
else
SB3_Kitchen_Player_Audio_Delay = 0ms;
endif

??

I don't care if I have to hard-code it, honestly, since it's pretty
obscure.

Thanks!
-Dan
