If the new mesh router is using WiFi 6, that is the problem.
The older radios in the squeeze family don't do well with it.
Try turning it off in the router settings and see if it helps.

I guess I meant 'step version' of the device, if they do incremental

I don't develop or play with these so I don't keep up with that sort of
thing.
Your device is wonderful as a player.

Is the base ESP32 the same? Just curious, the one I have is weak in the
wifi department ( within 5m of the access point ). It rarely has better
than 80% signal strength according to LMS.

PLEASE Read carefully and correct me if I made a mistake.
So, to remove your LMS installation from your ReadyNas
I'm not going to remove my LMS just to find out, but it should go
something like this:
In the ReadyNas UI make sure that SSH is turned on, green ( System =>
Settings )
In your favorite ssh client ( putty is mine )  open a connection to the
readynas IP. The user name is root The password is the same as the admin
web uses.
You have two choices once you are logged in:
1. remove the logitechmediaserver , which will remove the program but
leave your preferences, configuration files.
2. purge the logitechmediaserver, which will remove the program and all
configuration files. Not your library.

so as root type-  sudo apt-get remove logitechmediaserverto remove
the program, but leave the configuration files
or as root type-  sudo apt-get purge logitechmediaserver   to remove
the program and all associated configuration files
when it's done Ctrl-D or type exit to log off the command line.

To re-install the LMS I would just upload the package from the ReadyNas
web page , Apps tab =>upload.

I'm not an expert, just looking stuff up on the net. The ReadyNas runs
linux, but it is customized and minimized. Not the same as a 'distro'
version of Linux. 
Some folks are quite comfortable poking around, but I prefer to keep
things running so I don't fool around with the command line stuff any
more than I have to.
LMS will be the exception since the integration with the ReadyNas Web
gui is old and not supported. The command line is the only way to remove
the package ( that I know of ).

On the ReadyNas apps tab do you have the Logitech Squeeze server?
If so turn it off and uninstall it from there.
Then install the logitechmediaserver_8.2.1~1628312519_amd64.deb from the
apps tab.
You won't see the Logitech app anymore but you can install newer
versions through the upload function.

Worked for me anyway.

Re: [slim] Squeezebox server platform choice. Readynas?

2019-01-29 Thread mark wollschlager


LMS runs pretty well on my Netgear readynas 516.
I just upgraded to a 7.9.2 nightly the other day.
It uses one of the LMS debian packages along with a readynas add-in
available from a readynas forum user.
The add-on has not been updated for a while, but seems to work ok with
the new releases.

Sounds like my much loved Smart Mix...R.I.P.
I would very much like something like this that was not tied to an
external source.
My library is big and diverse enough to do this.

Re: [slim] From PC to NAS

2018-11-03 Thread mark wollschlager


I have been running LMS on Netgear Readynas for close to 10 years.
It originally was fully supported but since Readynas OS6, support ( much
like LMS today ) has been more community based.
It works and the debian packages of LMS are the correct version, but a
'shim package' put together by a readynas community developer is
required to make it work. There has not been any updates on that for a
while, but it works with 7.9.1 just fine.
There are many ways to run LMS, and if you need a nas for some reason,
they serve as a server/storage platform that does not require much
effort to run.

 For those of you who are living together with a spouse or kids, I'd like
 to understand a bit better how you would like to use local music

 future. 
 
 Do you have a need to let each family member browse their library
 individually ?
No, 1 library
 If so, where are the music files stored ? On a central computer/NAS, on
 a computer/NAS per family member or on the portable device of each
 family member ?
ReadyNas for all
 If you have individual libraries, do you also have a need for shared
 libraries which is common for multiple family members ?
No
 Do you have a need to keep track of playlists for each family member ?
No
 Do you have a need to keep track of favorites for each family member ?
No
 Do you have a need to keep track of ratings and playback statistics for
 each family member ?
No
 Does each family member have individual players which only one of the
 family members mostly use ?
 If so, should all players be controllable by everyone or do you want
 access to certain players to be restricted ? In that case why ?
Yes , 5 players available to all, room based.
 Does each family member have their individual remote control/smartphone
 to control the players or do you also have remote controls which you
 share between different family members ?
4 controllers for 2 people
 If you have a remote control which you share between multiple family
 members, is it a IR-remote, smartphone, tablet or computer ?
2 Duet controllers, 2 android tablets with Logitech Squeezebox
controller
 How would your dream system work to work as good as possible for usage
 of local music on Squeezeboxes and portable devices in your family ?
The only change I would make, today, would be to have multiple Random
Play selection lists. Not playlists, or genre limited play.

Re: [slim] FCC reveals Logitech Squeezebox Radio

2009-08-24 Thread mark wollschlager

I brought up a new squeezebox receiver on my network last night using an
already configured controller. 
I was amazed at how easy it was. 
Plugged in the receiver, waited less than a minute.
Checked the player list on the controller, there it was.
Highlighted and selected the new player ( receiver ). 
After a few seconds the light on the receiver changed red to blinking
red to green to blinking white( loading new firmware).
After about 3 minutes the receiver was ready for a new name and I could
stream to it. 
I use dhcp and it got the WPA2 passphrase info from the controller.
The initial setup of the Duet  passphrase was a little pain with the
controller, but this was pain free.
I expect to have a boom delivered today or tomorrow and I will try to
setup that with the Controller too.
Hopefully its just as easy.

Mark.

Re: [slim] Squeezebox - what speakers should I use?

2009-08-23 Thread mark wollschlager

After reading a bunch of glowing reviews, I ordered Audioengine 5
speakers for use with a Duet receiver in my living room.
http://www.audioengineusa.com/a5_home.php, a compact setup.
In another room I fed the output of the receiver into the aux input of
a Boston microcd player ( sort of a Bose wave knockoff ).
That works great for my wife.
I feed another into my family room receiver.
Very flexible.

Re: [slim] My personal thoughts on Squeezebox concept.

2009-07-02 Thread mark wollschlager

My two duets works great out of the box, every firmware for the last 7
months.
Receivers are in two different parts of the house.
The latest firmware has improved the reported signal strength.
My wife, who is not a gadget person, loves hers. 
She listens to Internet Radio, and browses the library without using a
manual or asking me for help.
I run it off of a Netgear NV+, no problems ( except self inflicted ).
If I could justify a Transporter it would free up a Duet for the shop (
or perhaps a SB3) :-).
Just my dumb luck, I guess.
