Yes, you're right, just tap the Orange Heart.  I was always puzzled by
the three tiny horizontal lines just to the left of the OH, I thought
they brought up a different menu, but I now see that they don't.

Re: [slim] Yet another thread on replacing squeezebox devices

2014-06-14 Thread PasTim

I think I have got as far as I can without input from those more
knowledgeable, and probably wiser, than I.  The state of play now is
that:

- I have cleaned up the logs so that they aren't full of trace callback
errors whenever the player/renderer is restarted
- spare flac/sox programs (usually) aren't left lying around
- there are a few configuration additions from the versions published
here up to now, such that the python program shouldn't have to be
edited
- I've sprinkled a few hopefully helpful comments in the scripts
- I am finishing up some documentation on how to set it up.

However:

1) wavs play fine up to the limit of a single wav (> 3 hours for CD
quality) and then stop - reselecting the playlist on the player/renderer
restarts it

2) flacs play providing there is something has already started playing
when the player/renderer selects the stream URL. However if you pause a
track and restart it, and sometimes when changing tracks, you often have
to reselect the stream URL on the player/renderer.  I suspect the
problem is that when nothing is playing, flac (from the flac or sox
programs) produces no output (unlike for wavs from sox when there is a
constant stream of data) and the stream protocol fails.   I am not quite
sure if there is an absolute upper time limit on the flac stream but
it's > 3 hours at 24/192 provided the music doesn't stop!

So, should I publish on the "3rd Party Software sub-forum" and see what
follows?



LMS 7.9 on VortexBox Midi running Xubuntu 14.04, FLACs 16->24 bit,
44.1->192kbps. Wired Touch + EDO, coax to Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC.

[slim] WiFi on the Radio & Touch and probably the whole range

2014-06-14 Thread cparker

Hi guys

I recently purchased a Netgear EX6100 AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender to
boost my WiFi to the end of the garden.  Previously I had an Edimax
(2.4GHz) but wanted to replace it with the Netgear to push up to AC
speeds while keeping my legacy network devices connected.

Laptop and tablet connected fine @ 2.4GHz & 5GHz.  

However I couldnt get any of the players to connect to anything, this is
despite the Netgear extending both 2.4 & 5GHz WiFi so I thought it would
cover all bases!  I played around with as many settings as I could find
but nothing made any difference, they saw the network (from what I can
tell just 2.4GHz) but the Radio, Touch and Duet/Receiver just would not
connect.  MAC address was added to allow access.

Does anybody else have any players connected to a Netgear EX6100 AC750?

Cheers

I'd use the LMS dlna plugin to select the http stream (from an m3u
playlist containing just the http stream URL) if I could, but it doesn't
seem to have that functionality.  I use minimserver instead.  I'm sure
other servers would do just as well for this very limited functionality
of getting a URL to a renderer.

This setting has been working perfectly for ages but after updating to
the version of 7.8.1 from June 12 I can no longer 'play all tracks'
using Orange Squeeze. Deleting the cache doesn't help this time. I can
play all tracks from the prompt list on the player but not from the app.
Switching between 'play only selected song' and 'play all songs on
album' also seems to have no obvious effect when 'ask before playing' is
set for the defeat destructive play option in LMS. I really should have
learned by now not to update it when it's working.

Alright, now the update installed without any problems and eberything
just works as it's supposed to. Don't know why, maybe having a player
connected made a difference ...

One thing I would like to add though. The level of support Kimmo

Re: [slim] Pre-Announcement: ickStream Music Platform

2014-06-14 Thread erland

When the Community Squeeze project recently ended due to the legal
problems we got some questions from users regarding the scope of
ickStream. 
Due to this we want to share a bit more information about the current
status in the ickStream project.

First of all, we are very sorry to see that the Community Squeeze
project now officially has ended and we would like to thank Triode and
JohnSwenson for trying to find alternative ways to release the software
and hardware they have been working on during the Community Squeeze
project. Hopefully the current situation will just be a small bump on
the road and we are soon going to get the community based hardware
player we all want. From what we have seen so far there shouldn't be any
problem to use ickStream on a community based hardware player using the
Wandboard.

In the ickStream team we have been working on integrating more online
services with the ickStream Music Platform. As you might have seen from
our blog/newsletter we have also started to prioritise Squeezebox
support to secure a way for existing Squeezebox users to access online
streaming services. The beta testers invited to our private beta program
are currently in the process of testing the Squeezebox integration and
the ability to use ickStream from any type Squeezebox player with all
the traditional Squeezebox remote control apps.

On the hardware side we are still focusing on working with hardware
partners to provide hardware supporting ickStream natively. If this
doesn't work out, we will probably eventually design our own hardware,
but since we are still a small team and collaboration with partners
looks promising we want to prioritze our efforts and prefer to let
partners handle the hardware. It's also important to remember that one
of the goals with ickStream Music Platform is to provide an environment
where you in the same system can mix hardware from many different
hardware vendors.

Finally, we are also looking at possibilities to have an open beta
program where early adopters in the Squeezebox community can try some of
the ickStream provided online streaming services, but we can't promise
anything regarding this right now, we just wanted to let you know that
we are investigating it.

Great! Have you tested it with DSD? I'd be interested to know if it
works at both 2.8 and 5.6Mhz rates. I don't have the relevant hardware
