Re: [slim] Announcing SqueezePad - the first dedicated iPad App to controll your SqueezeBoxen !
SqueezePad and 7.6 if you upgraded to 7.6 and SqueezePad is crashing all the time, then please try to set a new playlist on each player via the web-interface. Seems some bogus data gets send from time to time after the upgrade, though I haven't been able to reproduce this myself. Seems to be the same issue, that also makes iPeng crashing right now. Will investigate and send out an update to Apple, but don't expect anything earlier than two weeks due to Apples long review times (and me first needing to reproduce this issue somehow). Sorry for the inconvenience. @michael: pippin says the playlist_items now sometimes contains a 'null' item.

Ok - one more test: upen the web-interface, then change the volume with SqueezePlayer to its max volume (playing a song not needed). Is the volume bar in the web-interface going to its max value as well? If not, please check that SqueezePlayer is configured correctly: - enter the settings menu (menu button) and check if the port to the server is correct - also check if you need to enter username and password when your server is setup with password protection If SqueezePlayer cannot send the new volume correctly to the server, than some time later the server tells SqueezePlayer it's current volume so any change on the device gets reset. If this is still not your issue, please write a mail to support(at)squeezeplayer.com. I'd provide you with a custom version with some extra logging about what volume events arrive in SqueezePlayer. -- bluegaspode Did you know: *'SqueezePlayer' (www.squeezeplayer.com)* will stream all your music to your Android device.

I don't think so, I think the Bridge is only needed if none of the
other Sonos devices in the network can be connected with a wire. If at
least one of them can be connected with a wire, the Bridge isn't
needed. There is basically a built-in Sonos proprietary wireless
network access point built into all Sonos devices and the one connected
with a wire will act as access point for all the others.
So the purpose of the Bride is just to be able to offer a cheaper
solution for those who aren't interested in wires and don't want to
listen to music in the room where the closest network cable is. In that
case, they will just put a Bridge in that room and it will offer
Internet access to all the Sonos devices in the other rooms.
But I haven't tried it myself, so I might have misunderstood something,
but this is how I've interpreted it when reading on the Sonos forum.

I'd be surprised if the sound quality was different between the two systems (although I suppose the DACs could be quite different, don't know). For me the biggest limitations are that Sonos has a track limit that is much less than my library and it doesn't have the equivalent of your plugins (dynamic playlists, etc.). Those two things alone are a deal breaker for me. -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89047 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

As I've understood, one of the Sonos devices have to be connected with
a wire then the rest will communicate wireless using Sonos proprietary
wireless protocol.
So if you have two Play:3 devices and one is connected with wire it
works. If you want both to be wireless, you need their cheaper Bride
device and connect that to the router to make their proprietary
wireless network to work.
I guess the reason at least one needs to be wired is because they can't
talk standard WiFi with the router since they only understand Sonos
proprietary wireless protocol.
Squeezebox uses standard WiFi and due to this all Squeezeboxes can be
wireless. The disadvantage with Squeezebox which uses standard WiFi is
that it's usually a bit more complex to setup unless you know how to
setup a wireless network.
If someone have compared the audio quality from a Squeezebox and Sonos
device it would be very interesting to hear the result. It feels like
sometimes we just assume that Squeezebox sounds better, but is it
really possible to hear any difference in a real world comparison ?

I have WIN 7 SP1 and until recently I could access the green background Web page by using the URL "HTTP://127.0.0.1:9000" If I type this URL into a browser the green background page appears but I just get a message saying "awaiting htp://127.0.0.1:9000" with the little white circle spinning round.I have the SBS little icon showing in the browser tray which states that the Server is running and am able to open the SBS Control Panel by clicking appropriately on this choice there.

Re: [slim] General Issues / a bit of help please?
Thanks for the clarification. I asked about the info from the Information tab basically to be sure about the same point. You're probably not going to like this answer, but I suggest you either find a way to get 7.5.x or 7.6 running, or you return the Touch. There's a good reason why "SBS 7.5 or later" is mentioned on the "System Requirements" section of the Touch's web page and product box. You may have somehow managed to get the Touch running on 7.3.3, but I strongly suspect the unreliable behavior you're getting with the Touch is exactly because 7.3.3 does not support the Touch (or the Radio, for that matter). Some Touch features may work with 7.3.3, but then at some point in the normal use of the Touch it asks SqueezeCenter to do something that the server doesn't understand, because it's a feature that is unique to the Touch, and therefore 7.3.3 is unaware of it. The way I see it, your main options for running 7.5.x or 7.6 are: 1) figure out how to update the SBS on your NAS. I have run 7.6 on a different LinkStation (Pro v1). It's probably possible to get it running on yours, but it will probably take a bit of work. 2) Run SBS on a different computer, such as your laptop, a re-purposed desktop, a small form factor computer, or even a NAS that has better SBS support, like a Vortexbox. If you like you can still keep the music library on the NAS. 3) Run TinySBS (the Touch's built-in server) on the Touch. The downsides are that you would not be able to use it for the Roku, and you would need to move your music library to a USB drive. On the plus side, you could still run the Roku off the server on the NAS. -- aubuti aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88974 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Uh, wait a minute. A couple posts back you said that the -"Server is only installed on the NAS"-. Now you say the server is installed on the laptop, too. Which is it? Were you possibly running SBS on the laptop, and only getting the files from the NAS (as opposed to connecting to SBS running on the NAS)?

[slim] Sonos3 features of SS 7.6
Hello, I was just reviewing some marketing material about the new Sonos "Play" 3. It appears to have a similiar capability to the Stereo settings of Squeeze Server 7.6 where you can use two wireless devices for a Left and Right Stereo channel. What I found interesting was the price. They have listed 299 for a device and then for 59.00 you can add the wirless network. To me this looks like Sonos is trying to enter somewhat into the market where logitech has been for a while. Now without new boom boxes available from logitech, this may leave an opening for Sonos to sell some product. I know that I might have looked at Sonos a while back if they had something like this S3 back then as an alternative to the boom. -- froth froth's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11878 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89047 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Why recommend someone to get a Squeezebox ?
A poll associated with this post was created, to vote and see the results, please visit http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88915 Question: Why recommend someone to get a Squeezebox ? - Its excellent audio quality - Best price/performance on the market - Excellent hardware/software quality of the whole solution - Great support for online streaming services - Great support for browsing and playing local music - The possiblity to extend it to multiple rooms later on - Its support for third party plugins - The possibility to directly interact with Logitech regarding new features/bugs - This community and forum - I wouldn't recommend a Squeezebox to anyone I recommend Squeezeboxes for price / performance and online services. I've scrobbled over 35K tracks since I stood up my first setup back in March 2009. That's not completely reflective of usage, since I'm not scrobbling internet radio - I use the stream URL a fair amount to listen to Live Music Archive as well a couple radio stations. Occasional hiccups - once or twice a year - mostly having to reconnect Duet Receivers that I haven't used for a few months and are in areas of the house with poor WiFi signal strength. I mostly use 3 Receivers and the Boom,the other Receivers and the Radio are generally used when entertaining. -- JeffHart "You know, I'm all for progress. It's change I object to."

Re: [slim] boom keeps reverting to line in mode during playlists
The only thing that comes to mind is if you switch the Boom between SBS server and MySB.com, each server may have a different setting for Line In. I'd check via the web UI for both, make sure it is set to OFF on both. And again, if you created that MAC address on your own there may be a conflict with another SB player with the same MAC address on MySB.com. Dunno, just thinking of possible culprits. -- toby10 toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89018 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Check the player's screensaver settings in the web interface. If they've changed, just reset them. If they change again, it's probably because of broken SBS integration with mysqueezebox.com.

Does Logitech run any RSS feed that announces release of new software/firmware updates? Many other firms do that so their customers can keep track of the updates. I was only made aware of the newest release (7.6.0) when my SB Boom all of sudden turned itself on and updated its firmware last night. (I didn't even know SB Boom could do that. cool!)

Re: [slim] Is there a Windows application to control a Squeezebox?
I tried Foobar with an UPNP plugin and I use Whitebear server. But the problem was that browsing was too slow for me. Each time I go into Artist or Album I had to wait some time until artists or albums showed up. So I quit with that. And I used more UPNP programs but they all have the same problem. Too much waiting time. I still would like to have a fast program which caches the database like iPeng and Moose do. In the mean time I use Moose. It works now but I don't like the strange interface and all the strange functions which I don't understand yet. I guess a "normal" looking Windows application doesn't exist yet after all these years, and I doubt there will be one during the time Squeezeserver will be alive. Although the server works great for me, controlling the Squeezeboxes the way Logitech has implemented until now it is a dead end street I think. Although the iPhone App is quite ok, but not half as good as iPeng. And for sure there will be many old style users who say that all works perfect and can't be any better. -- Bert003 Bert003's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31132 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86144 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Is there a Windows application to control a Squeezebox?
Hello Bert003, Im inclined to agree with many of your observations - interface appearance can be a quite personal reaction, depending on the type of music you play and how you visualize how your music files are stored. You might like to use Foobar2000 to control your Squeezeboxen as indicated here: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79575 As the majority of my files are of classical music, I find that I use folder organization (composer, work, performers) more intuitive than the usual hierarchy of the default tagging schemes. Using the folder structure library display in Foobar2000 is brilliant for that, and the speed of the whole thing quite a relief.

Re: [slim] OT: Time Machine & USB disks
Clive This is probably obvious, but worth mentioning. It sounds as though this disk is used for occasional backups (plug it in, do a backup, disconnect it), rather than as a permanently connected backup drive. Keep in mind though that Time Machine likes to run frequent incremental backups, so if your daughter completes a backup and then leaves the drive connected, an hour later TM will start another (albeit small) backup. One possibility is that unplugging the drive during a backup might be causing problems. Make sure your daughter checks the little TM icon in the menu bar before disconnecting the drive - if the arrow is going round she should either wait for the backup to finish or cancel it before unplugging. Also make sure that she 'ejects' the drive before physically unplugging it. I'd also echo the advice to use Disk Utility to format the drive as 'Mac OS Extended (Journaled)' - I don't profess to know all the details, but it seems likely that the OS will handle problems on the drive better if it's a native format. -- chill chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89000 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
