[slim] Slim Running as Odd User
I suspect this is an easy one. I've finally gotten a version of slimserver to run off the shelf (6.5.1), however, it won't play music. It's giving me a permissions error. The music files are owned by slimserver:slimserver as is slimserver.pl. But, ps -ef | grep slim shows the processes running as user 501.

Just guessing here, you're probably on Windows and trying to run it as a service and trying to reach out to a network share of the music, and in the upgrade you lost the authentication information.

Yes, that's true. I signed-up with this forum before I had gmail. I know that hotmail does annoying things, so I've taken to removing previous posts - as I did with this one. That said: 1) Yes, it is linux, FC5 to be exact. 2) I installed the tarball over the rpm, but the rpm installs (I think) additional files like start-up scripts. 3) I've actually posted on this particular issue under three different threads. 4) All that said, I was mostly suprised because this forum has always been very helpful before, despite my e-mail handicap.

The Nokia770 skin uses Ajax for the now playing page, and that skin is only included with SlimServer 6.5 builds. The Nokia does not provide any ajax features where none exist in the skins. The Touch skin, included in 6.2 and 6.5 was used as a baseline for the new Nokia770 but is not optimised for pda displays, does not have even one line of ajax, and is not actively maintained (basic fixes to keep it from being totally useless, when time permits). what aspect of 6.5 is giving you problems? -k I posted the following earlier: Trying to run the latest from last night (6.5) and it wouldn't start as a service.

because the PocketPC platform sucks so bad(*) that it makes Palm look good -- but in switching to it, people spent time going over all the things that they didn't like about PalmOS and hoped PPC would fix, so they don't go back to Palm either. Instead they buy a Blackberry or a Symbian or a Motorola phone, or walk away from the whole PDA mess and carry a moleskin notebook.As a dedicated remote control, something like a PocketPC would have to be stable, fast, and untethered.

They would seem to be a pretty much perfect solution for transferring large files to/from my fileserver. I really don't want to have cables all over the house which is why I opted for wireless. But wireless is painfully slow at transferring large amounts of data :( I could totally do with a backup network that I can plug into (no pun intended) to transfer videos from laptop to server and vice versa. So how do these things work then? If I had an adaptor out where the fileserver is, and an adaptor in the lounge somewhere, do they come with any sort of built-in configuration? Or does it effectively open a straight through channel (like a crossover cable, or something)? Like - I could connect a hub/switch out where my fileserver is, connect it to the power line adaptor in uplink mode? And same in the lounge? Do I actually need hubs/switches (given that I already have a wireless router access point?

That is, 3 wires come into the house, a Neutral (not ground),and 2 other wires that are 180° out of phase. 110-120V to the outlets isdeveloped in half the house between Neutral and one phase, and in theother half of the house between Neutral and the other phase. So youcannot count on the two outlets you chose being in parallel. They maybe on opposite sides of the transformer winding out on the street.I think the same is true in the US, although, frankly, when visitingthe US I don't normally poke my head in other people's electricalentranceways, so I can't be sure. :-)FWIW, Canadian factories are supplied with 600V 3 phase, (which is anice submultiple of a standard transmission voltage) and americanfactories (for some reason I can't figure out) are 440V 3 phase.

Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2005 03:30:57 + (UTC) I have a squeezebox I and am running the new slimserver 6.0b1 software.I'm having a problem with the Handheld skin/interface used on Internet Explorer via a Dell Axim x30 (PocketPC).Basically the browser works (ie you can switch from home to status to playlist, etc.), but when you click on one of the play or add to playlist icons (if you "browse artists" from "home", these are the two icons that form the right two columns), the browser refreshes to the status page but does not start the new selection playing or add it to the playlist. Interestingly if I open the fishbone interface in the handheld browser, the icons work. Any thoughts?I tried rebooting the handheld.

Re: [slim] Linux command-line tagging / ripping (flac) softwarerecommendations
I'm not oppsed to additional work, especially if it reduces errors and can be somewhat scripted. So, your method adds a manual step for naming the files, otherwise using cdparanoia and flac? That's not so bad. I still need to look at jack and compare it to abcde and your method, but would you mind sending along those scripts that you mentioned?

[slim] Song Display Name
Ok, I've upgraded to 6.0. Pre 6.0, I would sometimes come across inconsistencies in artist names, or album names (and vs , or In vs in) and I would fix it by editting the tag and rescanning. My question - now, with 6.0 being DB based, how do I go about fixing inconsistencies like this?

Date: Tue, 15 Mar 2005 19:19:11 -0800 * Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] [050315 19:07]: Sorry if I missed something in this thread, but what's the down side of ogg-pcm on the server?Bandwidth to the SB?I suspect that might be the issue for higher bitrates.(Yes, I'm not an audio engineer.) When you use mp3 or ogg, you have a range of bitrates you can do... when you send pcm, you're sending raw data that is usually an order of magnitude larger.So bandwidth usage is much higher. I have quite a bit to learn.I just got my SB1 and and for some reason I thought my ogg were going to get encoded to mp3 by the server -- I guess I saw the "ogg mp3 * *" entry in convert.conf.But it seems they are sent pcm (correct?) as I don't see lame running. It'll do either, depending on your settings... you can either send pcm or mp3, and with mp3, you can do a range of bitrates. And with all the talk of the better DAC on SB2, does that even come into play if I (someday) use the S/PDIF or optical output? I think the answer is a great big "it depends", but I'm a Linux geek, not an audio geek, so I'll leave this part to someone else.
