I found the pinch option shortly after posting. As I don't have an iPhone 5 there's a compromise for me. When you tap the screen the track time bar appears at the bottom. It would be cool if the text at the top would appear/disappear same time as the time bar - that would help when artwork is maximised.

Well for a start the Sony has a relatively poor 320x480 screen, that is FIVE times less pixels than the iPod touch screen. The Touch (and the iPhone 5) has what is probably the best quality screen on any mobile device at the moment (better than the iPad 3 even). The Sony is over TWICE as thick as the iPod touch and weighs slightly more. The Sony is made of plastic, the iPod is somewhat better built. The iPod has a pretty good camera, including flash. The Sony, not so much. The iPod's CPU is over twice the speed of the Sony's. The battery life on the iPod is the same as the Sony, despite the far better screen and CPU. The Sony is indeed a bargain, but there -are- reasons it is much cheaper than the iPod (beyond purely Apple's higher profit margins). When it comes down to it the iPod touch isn't really competing with the Sony. People who want a 32GB MP3 player/Internet device are mostly going to go and consider the iPod touch first, it is going to occur to very few "normal" people to go and buy an £80 Android phone and stick 32GB of microSD in it, most people wouldn't even know that is possible. Don't be mislead by the relative speed of you old iPod touch to the Sony, the current iPod touch is much faster that even the 4th gen one. andynormancx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17417 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96877 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Moving on...
Well to each his / her own to say the least. I for one will not move to anything if it does not support a good base for syncs. In my house we use syncronization lots and a phone with music player is not going to get me there without some other technology supporting it. I have 5 rooms in my house with slim / logi products and control them with iPeng and browser clients. Not long ago my child came to me and asked if she could have a boom for her bedroom or something else tied into our music system. She had amplified speakers that she plugged into her cell phone which for a time she thought was the best. I did a bit of relocation of items and gave her one of my booms which she loves but agreed that when she upgrades her phone to a iPhone I will get her iPeng with playback and she can then go back to her amped speakers. This way she gets the best for her which is her own libary of music to take with her and access to over 16,000+ tracks in our music library. And yes, she will even be able to sync with iPeng if she wants. froth's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11878 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96877 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

One of the Controllers was from the beta program so I think it's probably not supposed to work now. The other one was always frustrating (dropped signal, slow scrolling, badly executed UI) so I don't really miss them! Orange Squeeze on the Nexus 7 tablet provides the best experience but lacks some higher level features (e.g sync), but as I only use very infrequently (e.g sync) this doesn't trouble me and If i need one I open the free Logitech app instead. It's taken me by surprise just how clunky, heavy and overlarge iPads seem after using a 7" tablet for only a short while.

The connections between them make. It's baffling. That's a shame. When I drop mine into its dock the screen brightens and it makes a small beep to indicate it has made a connection and is charging. I presume yours don't? Sounds like some wiring has come adrift internally that links the charging connections on the base with the battery. Odd that it should happen on both units, not heard of that before. I have heard of Controllers where the base charging contacts do not properly contact those on the Controller itself, as I am sure you have too as you say the connections are OK. I am sure you will have pursued the "bit of paper stuffed down the back" fix or the "get them to send you a new base" fix. Mine has been a pretty robust unit given all the abuse heaped on it by the family. Food covered hands have been the biggest hazard, along with red wine (my fault), blu-tack (my youngest thought it would be better wall mounted) and guinea pig wee (don't ask). I bought a spare battery but have not needed it yet and, luckily, somebody told me early on to set the screen saver to "off" as the screen darkens over time if used to display pretty patterns, the news, a clock or whatever. Just before they announced SB was to be discontinued Superfi were selling Controllers off at £60. A bargain compared to the RRP so I bought one as a backup.

Re: [slim] Windows Media Player !! problem
+1 on what Aubuti says. You should control your tags not the software. One tool I used when 1st setting up my library was to use Squeezeplay on my PC. I could look at things such as an album showing 2x or a genre tag I had not assigned. I found many issues there which I fixed to make my library appear more correctly and how I wanted it to. It's an ongoing process because we being human are imperfect. dasmueller's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38035 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96860 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Moving on...
Yes, I mean it's a lovely touch screen fixed in place by the wires to the amp/speakers which seems inconvenient/unnecessary when you've got use to controlling all elements of your music systems via a phone/handheld. Obviously a different case than a Boom or a Radio which are combined player/controllers and tend to be nearfield (i.e. radio by bed)... mind you, I still often use the phone or a tablet to control the radio two feet from my head as the UIs are much better thought out than the Logitech ones, and the tablet screen especially, easier to see.

When it comes to tags, and especially genres, pedantic is in the eye of the beholder. My advice is not to let WMP, or any other software, select your genres for you. Ignore whatever prefab lists of genres that WMP, Winamp, iTunes, and the rest of them have. *You* take control of the genres, and classify things things the way you want and tag them that way with mp3tag. If you've changed the tags in mp3tag and WMP refuses to recognize the changes, that's another reason to dump WMP. aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96860 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Music-Playback now on ANDROID! SqueezePlayer released to the market ...
It's both the player and the server who have to support it. The server generates replay gain values which then have to be used by the player. I can only speak for iPeng but I believe it will be similar for SqueezePlayer: there are two ways to control volume on a phone player: you can modify the actual audio data (that's what the Squeezebox does and where the replay gain values usually come in) and you can change the devices' system volume. Now, the problem is, that what you want to do on a phone is to use the system volume. There are three reasons: 1. When in a dock, some docks them can use analog volume control so you gain some quality. Some phones also might do the actual volume control in the analog domain. 2. The system volume has hard-wired control through buttons and the phone UI. You can't turn that off (at least on iOS), so if you do not use it, you end up using TWO volume controls that multiply in effect and you effectively lost capabilities as remote volume control 3. Doing your own volume leveling in the digital domain will increase the CPU load and power consumption. There are ways to get around it, but it's work. pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87364 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

A lot of expensive high-tech stuff there. Your 52 years have obviously been more lucrative than mine. I think you are a bit mean to the controller - it was quite cool in its day and would have been "bleeding edge tech" if it had come out a year or so earlier. However it was launched just after the first iPhone and iPod Touch so was very quickly outshone by them when used with iPeng. Its biggest problem was not its looks but its reliability - which was a disaster to begin with. Ours is still ugly, and the wheel is impossible if text searching, but it is now reliable and fine when picking music if no text entry is required. It is still used more than my iPod Touch with iPeng in our house simply because the iPod Touch has usually been snaffled by some kid and is nowhere to be found. The Controller, because it has no other use, can always be found in its dock. I will use my phone as a controller, but my wife has had the app on hers for about a year now and I often find her with the phone in one hand and the Controller in the other.

In fact in terms of "features" (plug-ins etc) the competition are not even half-way there, and likely never will be as most, like AirPlay and Sonos, are closed proprietary protocols. Unfortunately not enough people are sophisticated, like wot you am and I is, and aren't prepared to invest the time and effort into a SB system in order to get the best out of it. Most people just want to choose music and press the play button. Still, as long as the LMS server is running on my NAS and my two Receivers hold out then I will stick with it for my static streamers. They made a few mistakes though, the Duet being the biggest one as it was such a bast@ard to set up and was buggy as hell until about the fifth firmware upgrade. Set up properly using net-UDAP mine have been super-reliable for over three years now, but I could easily have binned them in anger lots of times before that.

Yes, the RG is in the tags (to be used or not by player). dbpa can add
after the fact ("convert" to RG DSP), or foobar2000 has an excellent RG
utility for adding ALBUM and TRACK RG info to the tags.

Re: [slim] Moving on...
Well I'm 52. :-) I've had iPhones for a few years now, and also have a Google Nexus 7. My wife (whose phone I borrow as and when) has an HTC desire and son an iPod. We use iPeng on the Apple devices (although the latest update has confused us and is very flaky on my 3GS) and Orange Squeeze/Logitech App on the Androids. They all work supremely well as controllers (really knock the spots off *all* the Logitech hardware devices in terms of usability and ui design) and the iDevices work well as players (with disparate docking stations). My favourite is the Google Nexus with Orange Squeeze, as the now playing screen looks so good, the app is so straightforward and fast and the Nexus 7 a useful all round device for having around the house (perfect screen size for aging eyes, fits in cargo pant pockets). I run one server and have multiple wireless repeaters so the wireless signal stretches over a couple of acres (to garage, workshop, barby area and pond). Having looked at the iPhone I suspect that the (expensive) iPhone series is past its sell by date. With the Nexus 7 Google finally managed to get their Android OS to iOS standard (and in many ways I now prefer it). So for me, it'll be Android phone and tablets as controllers and to a smaller degree as players from now on. and when I've finally finished off my house and re-bought some Naim audio stuff I'll resurrect the Squeezebox Plus. Still like the Radio, Boom and Classic though but no time for the Duet (and certainly not the hideous Controller) and the Touch is just a bit of a white elephant (makes a nice clock though).

Even with todays plethora of offerings, the competition isn't quite there yet. Some such as Naim, Linn and the big high-fi names are much more expensive, mainstream high-fi is not there yet as far as features and quality, Sonos is still "low-res", etc. Squeezebox have (had) its foot solidly planted in the music/tech/high-fi communities - people where using Touches as sources in major $$$ systems and *everyone* agreed that they where that good - or one would at least, as the saying goes in high-fi, "have to spend major $$$ to achieve better". The Boom/Radio where, for many, nice system-completing additions for streaming to the toilet and such places. As I said I dont think any other brand had such a good standing.

There will always be a place for a static streamer but SB has more competition these days from Apple AirPlay and DLNA as well as Sonos. Also, if you want to pay too much money, there are plenty of "hi-fi" streamers out there. Some, like Linn, even offer multi-room sync. In that environment you can the Squeezebox market share gradually being eaten into. You also forget that in most modern homes there is more than one smartphone. My wife has one and my daughter is angling for one. My eldest son would love one but he would spend every hour of the day playing games on it. I already have to hide the iPod Touch!

She wanted an iPhone, because all her friends have them, but decided it was too expensive and went with the "poor man's iPhone" as she calls it.

[slim] Moving on...
Just got a glimpse of the future, and it is phone shaped. I have been a bit late to the smartphone market. I have an old 2nd generation iPod Touch but it was a bit sluggish with apps so did not really go far down that route. My cell phone contract came up for renewal and I needed to economise so ditched my 3 year old Nokia and expensive contract and bought the cheapest Android ICS phone I could find on a £10.50 "sim only" monthly tariff which has twice the "minutes" of my old contract, unlimited texts and 500MB data for 2/3 of the monthly cost of my old contract. The phone is a Sony Xperia Tipo which cost £80 + £10 for a 32GB microSD card bringing the total cost to around a 1/3 that of a new 32GB iPod Touch and only 2/3 of a 16GB Nano! In the face of the competition how Apple can justify those prices beats me. The screen of the Tipo is quite small but is very slick. Apps are noticeably quicker to respond than my old iPod and although a bit fiddly I am getting used to typing - landscape mode helps. But wow! how things have moved on... The phone side is so much more capable than the Nokia, with all my e-mail and texts in one place, all my contacts stored in the Google cloud (and backed up of course) and a shared calendar with my wife (life saver!). This gives me all the old PDA functions with knobs on - and automatically synced between phone and PC. On the apps side my requirement is for a mainly audio stuff so I have already installed Spotify, Squeeze Player, Squeeze Commander, official Squeezebox app, Last.fm, PodTrapper, BBC iPlayer and TrackID - not to mention converting about 70% of my music to 120kbps VBA MP3 and dropping it onto the SD card which only half fills it, leaving room for photos and video. I even have access to my full music collection on my NAS from anywhere with a mobile or wi-fi signal using a handy Synology app. Installed a few games to play while I listen to the music too. And of course there is the maps and GPS and I have added a compass app (which has come in handy already!). ..oh and there is a camera of course. The crunch bit for Logitech is that with the Squeezebox app and Squeeze Player I now have a free Squeezebox - and if I bought a bluetooth speaker it would not be much different from a SB Radio. I am beginning to understand now how Logitech might have felt it was not worth making any more SB hardware if you can effectively get it all for free on your phone. In fact I am surprised they even bothered with the UE Radio. The one thing this does not do, of course, is hi-fi quality reproduction and reliable multi-room synch. There is still a place for a SB Touch / Receiver type device - which is where, unfortunately, Sonos are now going to take over. Ho hum.
