Re: [slim] UE Boombox
musicom wrote: Keep in mind that Bluetooth is a lossy transmission method, so you throw all semblance of quality out the door when you use it. Sonos and Squeezebox uses lossless transmission protocols over wi fi and are bit accurate up to the limits of the DAC in the SB or Sonos device which can be 24/96 for Squeezebox and 14/44.1 for Sonos. Sorry, but Bluetooth is NOT a lossy transport medium.

That makefile has been depreciated for a while now. The current windows squeezeslave binary supports ASIO, Direct Sound, WASAPI and WDMKS. However, I just successfully built an asio only version using the deprecated/makefile.mingw32-asio-display makefile. I believe -mno-cygwin has been removed from the gcc4 binary recently. I'm still running a cygwin version listed on the wiki. Try changing the default compiler to v3 using /usr/bin/set-gcc-default-3.sh and rebuilding everything. make -f deprecated/makefile.mingw32-asio-display realclean make -f deprecated/makefile.mingw32-asio-display I can put the asio only binary on googlecode if you'd like. ralphy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3484 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93607 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Squeezebox v3 screen black but s/pdif port lit up
My Squeezebox v3 has stopped working. The display is black, but there is light coming from the s/pdif port. I removed the wireless card and re-seated it, I carried out a restart holding the 1 button down prior to powering it up as suggested in these forums and it still isn't working.

Re: [slim] Squeezebox v3 screen black but s/pdif port lit up
The display has probably died. Happened to me, and seems moderately common. AFAIK, there's no repair available, or even possible. However, if only the display is dead, you can communicate with it using a utility called net-UDAP that has a thread here on the forum. Using net-UDAP, you can configure the network connections and then you're able to control the player from SBS/LMS or various remote control apps. Essentially, you now have a receiver. The configuration is command line intensive, and you need to know basic networking parameters like ip address, dhcp, dns, wpa etc. Wired is easier than wireless, but wireless can be done. You can check in on the net-UDAP thread for help and more info. mikeh49's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=48620 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97155 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Did you try powering up without the wireless card ?

Re: [slim] Sonos vs squeezebox for whole house audio
musicom wrote: We have 5 rooms in 2 zones using Squeezebox 3 (SB3), Duets or Touch devices as the signal source. Some rooms have Home theatre as the main activity, with a Squeezebox source for some 2 channel audio listening, another has a high end stereo system while others have just a SB3 and a 2 channel power amp or stereo receiver to power separate speakers in the room. While none of my amps are small (120 watts/ch in computer bedroom) you can choose a small amp suitable for background listening now and later upgrade to a more powerful amp later. All are controlled by either Squeezebox IR remotes, SB Controllers, iPod touch with ipeng, web interface on computers or Android tablets. Are you worried about the discontinued service down the road.

My plan is to wire my Duet, and a couple of spare duet receivers to individual amps hooked to zone speakers, 5-6 zones in total. My amps will be the inexpensive $25 amps that were quoted earlier in the thread loop. Space is a premium and my closet is small and although I like to think I'm an audiophile, I'm an imposter who likes nice music. Probably going to purchase a Touch soon to put this by my bedroom and one in the living room so people can see what is being played. The other 3 will just be the duet network receiver tucked away in the closet where I can just control it with smartphone or ipad and more for just background music. benybrady's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39813 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97106 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
