[slim] Squeezebox integration with Duet

2008-04-07 Thread hotmachiato

Hi,

I just talked to customer support about the ability of managing
existing Squeezebox 3's with the Duet remote control and to my surprise
he said it does work :-)

So, anyone can report on their experiences with this type of setup?

Carl

Excellent, I am so glad to hear that and it is a testament to a great
development team at SlimDevices, ahem - Logitech.

[slim] Concern with NV + Slimserver 6.5

2006-12-16 Thread hotmachiato

I have a 2TB NV with 1GB of RAM and am experiencing a lot of drop-outs
and stutter when using the web interface to control my slim devices (1)
original Slimp3 and (1) Sqeezebox. I need to be able to control the 
slim devices via the WEB as well as play music on my computers because
I use a combination of Macs/XP/Vista/FC5 to play/manage my music.

I notice the drop-outs mostly on the Slimp3 box, but the Squeeze box is
not unaffected either. I use Moose on my Windows boxen, but on the
others I use the web-interface. As soon as I start using it, the slim
devices start dropping out music.

I am concerned because I am thinking of investing on a Transporter for
my media room and I smply cannot tolerate the drop outs. I am also
going to convert all my vinyl albums (+1200) and put them on the server
as well, and if things don't scale to +25k songs, I will have to look at
a different solution. Questions:

1. Is the Slimp3 cache simply not large enough?
2. Would the Transporter together with a Squeezebox (1 and 2) put more
strain on the already taxed server
3. I will only run FLAC on the Transporter.

I would liek to start some healthy discussions aroudn the topics
mentioned above. 

Thankx,

Carl

Here is my config:

Squeezebox (firmware 40)
Slimp3(firmware 2.3)

Infrant NV (1GB RAM) 2TB of storage
Firmware v301c1-p6 (latest)
Slimserver 6.5.1-10479

Slimserver config:
Library stats (off)
Webserver forking (on)

Music (all ripped from my own CD's)
Encoding: FLAC AND MP3 (225kbps VBR)
Artists (570) 
Albums (1311)
Songs (13022) mp3 (13000) flac

[slim] Re: Now Playing in Win MediaPlayer 10 doesn't work

2006-05-26 Thread hotmachiato

I decided to try shoutcast streams and what I got to work was extracting
the URL from the .pls file, e.g.

http://209.9.233.3:5110
out of :

[playlist]
numberofentries=1
File1=http://209.9.233.3:5110
Title1=(#1 - 10/1000) 1dot4.fm - Fusion Jazz
Length1=-1
Version=2

WMP11 will play the stream and show the right title.

http://radioio.sc.llnwd.net:8610 did not work at all in WMP 11, although
it worked fine in iTunes.

[slim] Now Playing in Win MediaPlayer 10 doesn't work

2006-05-25 Thread hotmachiato

When using WinMP10 referinc the slimserver stream:

http:your server/stream.mp3

I can't see any of the tag info, i.e. no Album, Artist or Track. All I
see is Song:stream and Playing 'stream'': XYZ Kbits/sec. I suspect
it is WinMP10, but would like to get that confirmed. 

When I play to the same music source file locally from my computer, the
proper tag info is displayed. There is something that slimserver does
when it streams the data that is different than the tagged info
embedded in an mp3.file.
