Re: [slim] bye squeeze, hello ipod

2008-07-13 Thread boslim

I relocated recently, temporarily separating myself from my vinyl and CD
collection while setting up a new business.  My Squeezeboxes and
Transporter kept me sane by providing an unending stream of music,
news, new music and even background sounds, all with superb sound
quality. I let my Pandora and Rhapsody services guide me to new artists
and new albums, enjoying the meeting an old friend I never knew
feeling of connecting with an artist introduced by the squeezebox.   I
tapped into my FLAC files, re-listening to albums whose originals were
1500 miles away.  I never felt deprived of my music and  enjoyed it
through my best stereo rig, or through a pair of advent AV570 powered
speakers in the kitchen while I cooked or even through a ridiculously
cheap super T amp powering spherical sattelite speakers while I shaved.
I laughed at comedy podcasts I had downloaded, enjoyed public radio
programs on the internet radio and fell asleep here in the U.S. while
listening to a jazz radio station in Paris.

I'm sure the iPod users enjoy their music as is.  Good for them.  I
want more.  More sound quality, more musical and information choices
and more of a CONNECTION to the world of sounds that waits to be
discovered.

Nothing beats the Squeezebox for that. Nothing even comes close.  

I just gave a trio of Squeezeboxes to a great friend who has an
incredibly expensive stereo system and an amazing collection of music. 
I was trying to find a cool gift for a man who has everything.  He,
his wife and his kids think the Squeezeboxes are the coolest gift they
have ever received.  Mission
accomplished.

sorry for the long post

[slim] time zone and squeezebox

2008-03-29 Thread boslim

I just moved from wyoming (Mountain Standard Time) to Ohio (Eastern
Standard Time).  I have a transporter and a squeezebox. I have changed
the time and time zone on my computer, the one on which the
squeezecenter runs. (Windows xp pro)

My alarm time set up doesn't work correctly.  If I set it to 5 am to
wake me,
it wakes me at 7am, as if I was in the mountain time zone.

I can't find a setting to fix this.

Any ideas?

Huge fan of the squeezebox, my main source of music

I thought I was using the squeezecenter for the alarms, but I will
change the squeezenetwork pages.  Thanks.
