Re: [slim] Best of Luck - moving on...

2009-12-22 Thread NoFlyZone

I solved the problem with the screwed up library in Squeezecenter. As I
mentioned, artists would show album titles and albums would show
artists, all in a totally random way. Having a 1000 + library in FLAC
this has been most frustrating as I found it difficult if not impossible
to play s title I wanted to hear and worse yet, others who had desires
for certain artists/albums to play could not. Kind of embarrassing
considering the level of system I have :-/

The problem was with in the path. Although MediaMonkey had no problem
with long filenames Squeezecenter apparently does. In MediaMonkeys
Tools/Auto Organize Files, one could rename file names based upon a
tagging scheme. Very cool. I was able to rename nearly 1000 CD's worth
of song titles with a click of a mouse. Doubting this would work I
deleted then rescanned my library, sat on the couch and witnessed a
perfectly organized library from my Squeezebox 3. Haven't seen that in
over a year! Woo Hoo! 

Thanks for the tips and helpful information from this forum. 

No thanks to Logitech support who refused to even talk about a possible
tagging issue. Business must be good..

It's good to know that other companies as of late (say Nuforce) have
been extremely helpful with problems I've encountered with a product,
even when I was the cause!

Re: [slim] Best of Luck - moving on...

2009-12-21 Thread NoFlyZone

I think I'm moving on as well. I have a Squeezebox 3 and a Transporter.

I've giving up on getting an accurate library to browse and the help I
got from Logitech support was we don't help with tagging issues

I know I can use this forum and have in the past, and have but I still
haven't resolved my albums in the artists and vice versa, music. It's
been extremely frustrating. God only knows how many hours I've spent
retagging..

It all looks perfect in MedaMonkey. 

There's so many great companies out there. Nuforce has been awesome and
they have a music server in their lineup as well. I use an outboard DAC
so the internals aren't so much important - the interface is.
Maybe I'll check out Sonos as well.

Good luck to you

[slim] Missing Albums after scan

2008-11-02 Thread NoFlyZone

I'm frustrated. I'm not a newbie to this service and it's worked
flawlessly for many years (I think). Maybe it's the latest update or me
playing with my tagging but...

In my The Beatles folder I have 9 Beatles's FLAC encoded albums all
in their own little folder. Squeezecenter likes only 3 Beatles albums.
It ignores the rest. I've cleared the library multiple times and still
only likes the 3. I've directed the scan specifically for those albums
and still, they won't show up on my library. I've even cleared the
library and rescanned my backup music drive, a clone, and still no go.
I've looked at the files, there properties, content, permissions (which
I changed to full access), I've played the music on those albums through
Media Monkey, and I've given it a night's rest and a fresh brain. I
would not be surprised if many other albums are missing, unless
Sqeezecenter didn't like the boys much.

So what I'm I missing, besides of course BEATLES ALBUMS?

Thanks Skunk. They showed up in no album and are in the music folder.
Logs are clean or don't show issues with this music.

Now I need to figure out why I have music in no album.

[slim] TP DAC output to preamp options

2008-10-10 Thread NoFlyZone

Currently run TP straight to Nuforce amps via analog through either
balanced or RCA. My question is this. What other jacks can I use to
output using TP DAC to say and Onkyo prepro where I bypass the Onkyo's
inferior DACs. 

Something I've really never understood is when one outputs via either
analog or digital from the TP is this signal after TP DACs or does it
stay in the digital realm for DAC conversion inside the preamp? In my
understanding the only proccessed (dac conversion) from inside TP is
through RCA and balanced jacks. 

Please help clear my cloudy brain on this.

[slim] Transporter Lost output signals HELP!

2008-06-06 Thread NoFlyZone

I've been cruzing along with my Transporter listening to my library and
sounding so good. Been very happy except for a few hiccups regarding
digital outputs - that's another thread later on.

This morning I was listening to internet radio. While in the middle of
a song there was a click then no sound. The meters continue to move but
no output. I tried my music library but still no output. I rebooted but
still no output. I went from balanced to single ended, still no output.
Unplugged unit, replugged - no help. I need help. This looks bad.

Thanks much. I'm breathing a little easier now. I wonder why this
happened - in the middle of streamed music.
