Useful information at the 'Squeezeplug wiki'
(http://www.squeezeplug.eu/wiki/index.php/SqueezePlug) - and in
particular this section on 'configuring Squeezeplug'
(http://www.squeezeplug.eu/wiki/index.php/SqueezePlug#Configure_SqueezePlug).

>From the command prompt, enter the command -setup- and go from there.
You don't need to donate to proceed - at least not with the image I've
used. (I will probably donate next time I see the prompt, because I
think Squeezeplug is pretty good.)

PS Mnyb is right, there's a better place to post for information on
Squeezeplug...there are Squeezeplug threads in the 3rd Party Hardware
forum...

[slim] problem with logging into squeezebox

2014-06-06 Thread 2ee4

Hi all,

I am in the process of setting up squeezebox on my raspberry pi, have
downloaded latest version and installed on sd card, gone through
everything and have logged in with required Login and password all
good.
But then I am asked to make a donation to Squeezebox( more than willing
to do so) but then will I be sent a code to proceed further in
installation this does not seem clear.
this is where I am at at the moment
login root
password nosoup4u
then donation request
root@squeezeplug:~# ( What do I enter here? )

Your help greatly appreciated thankyou 

Mick

Re: [slim] SB1 wireless problem with Ubiquiti UniFi AP

2014-06-06 Thread Emperor Wu

OP again.
I think the poor thing is dying.  I switched it to a wired connection
and completed setup.  It was able to allocate an IP address from my DHCP
server and connect to my LMS, ending with the "Setup is complete! Press
the right button to use your Squeezebox".  I press the right button, and
the display goes off and doesn't come back on.

:(

[slim] SB1 wireless problem with Ubiquiti UniFi AP

2014-06-06 Thread Emperor Wu

I'm a long time Squeezebox user and have both the Squeeezebox 1 and
Squeezebox 2.  I recently switched off my dying Linksys WRT-54G access
point and replaced it with a Ubiquiti UniFi AP.  This AP supports a
number of protocols but I set up a wireless network with name
"Switcheroo" and WEP 64-bit security.  My Squeezebox 2 sees the network
fine and connects, but the SB1 does not.  When I get to the "Choose your
wireless network (SSID):" screen when I scroll down, rather than seeing
"real" network names I see things like:

zézézézézézézézézézézézézézézézé

or 

DéDéDéDéDéDéDéDéDéDéDéDéDéDé

I do get the choice to enter my own network name, and I can enter
"Switcheroo" and specify the password, and it goes to "Connecting to
wireless network" and counts down from 20, then fails to find the
network.

Has anyone seen this garbled network name issue before?  Any advice?

Re: [slim] Need recommendations for music subscriber service

2014-06-06 Thread Eric Seaberg

Sorry I'm a little late in seeing this, but I subscribed to SKY.FM
http://www.sky.fm/ along with Pandora.  SKY FM has a great library and
the paid service bumps you up to 256kbps.  The sound is AWESOME.  They
also have mobile apps for streaming on the go.  I'm tempted to cancel my
SiriusXM subscription and use this instead!  There's also a sister
'station' to SKY which is JAZZ RADIO http://www.jazzradio.com/.  When
you pay for SKY you also get JAZZ RADIO, which is also 256kbps.

It works great with LMS to all devices in sync.

yes i think only a "real" player would give you working sync . you may
also experience short lags in controll play pause stop depending on how
the dlna sofware player in the reciever works .

Example a real squeezebox has a alarge buffer about 30 seconds ,but the
playback controll comands bypass that down in the player so your never
bothered when using the player . and the small adjustments needed for
sync is also done down in the player .

Thanks.  One less bit of hardware, cables, digital interfaces, plus
operating system, seems much simpler and neater to me, but I know some
people like having another bit of kit.

I did briefly try syncing (and I have the syncoptions plugin installed),
but I don't think it will work too well.  I've never used it other than
for idle interest, so I'm not too bothered.

Not a bad solution you got there.  I would personally prefer the a
Pi/wandboard solution but this may be useful/simple way to use other
devices that cannot run squeezelite or similar but do play streams.   I
think you can try to sync using timing settings on the server somewhere.
It's not that easy and it won't be as good as a typical setup.

Re: [slim] How to determine the language of a song or album name ?

2014-06-06 Thread lrossouw

You also look at the info on musicbrainz.  It gives you the album
language. 

E.g.
http://musicbrainz.org/release/988fed07-10b4-4153-bbf9-d0d6576fa174

Have no idea what that album is.  Randomly chosen.
