Re: [slim] are Amazon MP3s gapless on SBS?
FWIW, there have been people who have encountered problems with certain tracks downloaded from eMusic. They have then downloaded the tracks from itunes and encountered the exact same error (an error that is not present on the physical cd). Emusic has stated that they do not encode the music themselves, the copy is given to them from the record label. However, I don't know if this is true for all vendors. Some people have reported downloading the same album from emusic and, say, Amie Street or Amazon, and the version from Amie Street/Amazon has a higher bitrate. Go figure. (Most, but not all, of eMusic's tracks are gapless Lame btw) -- floydthecat floydthecat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20988 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73911 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Turning SHN Files into FLAC files
dBpoweramp will convert directly from shorten to flac. It also has a batch converter built in. You can choose folders or individual tracks to convert. -- floydthecat floydthecat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20988 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57008 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Turning SHN Files into FLAC files
I edited my post above to add batch converter directions in case you missed it. If you have a lot to convert, just set it up leave it going overnight. -- floydthecat floydthecat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20988 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57008 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Controller Display Question
I have mine set to never, but my controller behaves a little strangely as well. When I remove it from the cradle and start playing some music then put it down, after about 30 seconds the backlight for the buttons goes off and the screen dims. After about another 30 seconds the screen turns off. If I move the controller the screen comes back on at full brightness, as well as the button backlights, and stays on. Seems to me at least the button lights should turn off to reduce battery consumption. If I leave the controller in the cradle when I start playing music then the screen just stays on from the beginning and never dims/goes dark. I have now playing set as screensaver and, as metioned, dimming set to never. -- floydthecat floydthecat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20988 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=56193 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] SB3 Antenna???
If you can find another router at a good price you can use DD-WRT to turn it into a repeater.
