Re: [slim] Volume goes up & down without stopping Squeezebox Classic
When I am tired - not really thinking clearly... I have all this equipment and never did a basic test. The so-called 'bad' remote works fine with all my other Squeezebox units and the other remotes in the house cause the same weird behavior with flying volume only with my bedroom Classic. So it is not a remote problem but how the bedroom Classic reacts with any and all of my remote controls. Great... sflen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32702 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106784 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Video streaming recorder for video-on-demand services?
Hey guys :), Finally Netflix released an offline-mode! :cool: Love it, because really makes my many travels with airplane and train more enjoyable, where the internet connection is either weak or not existing. Really long waited for that. However, unfortunately I had to discover, that this offline mode is not available for every content. For instance it's not provided for the new season of 'The Big Band Theorie' what I'm currently watching to and would like to take with me on my 15 hours travel next week. Someone knows why it is like that and if I can calculate with more content in the future? Or would be even better if someone knows a solution? Thanks for any help!

Re: [slim] Volume goes up & down without stopping Squeezebox Classic
That sounds like a faulty IR sensor on the Classic itself then. I imagine in the Bedroom you want to use the remote rather than iPeng. You mentioned you had other Classics - perhaps swap its location with another that works OK where you don't need to control with a remote ? *Vortexbox LMS 7.9 music on QNAP TS419p via NFS* iThingys/iPeng/Tablets *Living Room* - SB3 -> Onkyo TS606 - > Celestion Ditton F20s - Zone 2 -> Sony TA FE 320 -> Sennheiser RS 130 & B&W P7 *Office* - RPi -> Sony TA FE320 -> Celestion F10s / SB3 -> Onkyo CRN 755 -> Wharfedale Modus Cubes *Dining Room* -> SB Boom *Kitchen* -> UE Radio (upgraded to SB Radio) *Bedroom (Bedside)* - SB Touch -> Topping TP21 -> AKG Headphones *Bedroom (TV)* - Amazon Fire TV (SB Player) -> Topping TP20 -> Wharfedale Modus Cubes d6jg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106784 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

I think what I've observed is a lot of folks that have not lived in the trenches of digital audio streaming... the trials and tribulations of ripping CDs, tagging and organizing your music files, seeking cover art and struggling to get and keep it all working. Many Roon AWW believers seem new to this biz... Perhaps they've ripped a few CDs, but more likely they're downloading their music, given little thought to tagging and organizing files and likely using Tidal. For them, Roon makes it so easy to plug and play and has opened a whole new world. Ah, it's good to be a dinosaur.

Thank you for your response! This has been a wild 36 hours. Not only do I have run-away volume but the same goes for the up & down arrow - songs in a playlist go by in a blur. The on/off button does not work either. Nothing slows down enough to do a proper reset of this Classic (the "+" technique). I will keep trying. Luckily iPeng functions and controls this Classic. Feeling grateful to Pippin, the least I could do was to purchase the latest update to iPeng. It is great to have split view on my iPad! As I have 2 factory remotes in the Bedroom, I will use, as replacements, my iPad Pro and ancient iPad Touch where iPeng does just fine. If using these devices with my Classic gets too tedious, I will switch my Bedroom Classic with another Classic that is not used as much. I also called Logitech support and put in my request for them to remake the Touch or Classic again. They replied that they have many requests for this. Just annoying but in the end - I'll live... sflen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32702 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106784 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
