Re: [slim] Radio playlist mystery
OK - I've given up on this as I've discovered how to create an OPML radio playlist inside 'Favorites'. It'll be in the wrong place, of course (not under 'Internet Radio') but at least I can make it hierarchical, which wasn't possible with my old playlist system.

Re: [slim] Radio playlist mystery
Thanks Gary... Your playlist displays in exactly the same way as mine. But yours is a list of URLs, whereas mine also has #EXTINF lines, with station information that used to be displayed when I used the old RadioPlaylist plugin. It seems these lines are now being ignored. Is it possible that the #EXTINF info was read by the plugin, and SBS cannot read it on its own? Does anyone have a radio playlist with #EXTINF information that they would be willing to share?

[slim] Radio playlist mystery
Im having problems with a playlist of Radio stations that I created a few years ago, when it worked perfectly using the RadioPlaylist plugin. Unfortunately the plugin was not updated for later versions of SBS, so I stopped using the playlist. I decided to use it again today, so I imported it into my playlist folder. Now if I go (on a Boom) Music Library>Playlists>Radios Francaises I can scroll up and down a list of 223 blank spaces. If I press play on any of those spaces I get a brief flash of the URL, and then connection! But what I see in the display is not the name I entered in the playlist, its some other steam associated with the station. ( Sometimes station information, sometimes track information.) I can repeat this up and down the list, and those on which I have pressed play still show the same information in the display. Until I switch off and on, then all the stations go blank again! Does anyone have any idea what might be going on, or what settings may be wrong? Ive attached the playlist too in case that helps. Thanks! PS Several other playlists that I used to use with RadioPlaylist show the same behaviour. +---+ |Filename: Radios Francaises.zip| |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=12273| +---+ -- mberger 7.4.1, 2 x SB3, 1 x Boom, 1 x Duet, 1 x Radio mberger's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22535 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89556 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Can't connect to BBC radio from outside UK
Thanks to all for your suggestions. Unfortunately I haven't been able to solve the problem. I tried concentrating on the iPlayer plugin (1.1.7) with AAC and 'prefer WMA' the only selections. Squeezeserver reports connections to the lo-res (48k) feeds and suggests that they play for a few seconds then stop. On the Boom the display reads 'connecting' then 'stopped.' Annoyingly I can even get 'listen again' on the laptop but I haven't brought any headphones with me!! I thought it might be a low bitrate wifi problem but I can connect to US and European stations at up to 128k. I think it might have to stay a mystery as I go back home in three days! -- mberger 7.4.1, 2 x SB3, 1 x Boom mberger's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22535 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79169 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Can't connect to BBC radio from outside UK
Hi - I'm on holiday in Europe using local wifi connections to listen to internet radio via my laptop and Boom. All works well - except I can't get any BBC stations on the Boom using either the native SS 'Internet Radio' links or the iPlayer plugin. I get a message reading 'connecting' then 'stopped.' The streams play fine directly on the laptop using BBC iPlayer, so I guess I must have a server setting wrong somewhere. Has anyone got any ideas? -- mberger 7.4.1, 2 x SB3, 1 x Boom mberger's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22535 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79169 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Rebuffering is ruining the Squeezebox experience
Bryn - in my limited experience if you have a signal strength reading of under 40% you will get some rebuffering. I got round the problem by careful repositioning of the router. A very small movement can cause a big change in strengh depending on the surrounding walls, electrical implements etc. Failing that you could think about ethernet-over-mains. -- mberger mberger's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22535 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65719 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
