Re: [slim] Android Controller App
As far as I understand - a WOL packet broadcast from the internet will never even make it as far as the home router. It is very unlikely to make it past the switches at the ISP - but if it did - the home router would not know what to do with it. I don't think NAT and WOL are compatible. -- nptohc nptohc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11719 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86487 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

" Yes Squeezecommander supports password protected SqueezeboxServers but you cannot play an audio stream via it. Subsonic server is free forever but streaming to the android app is only free for 30 days after which time you are expected to stump up a one-time "donation" which can be as little as 5EUR - but it does have the lovely benefit of downloading your playlist to your SD Card so if the connection drops between you and the server (patchy signal etc) the songs that have been downloaded will stay play. -- nptohc nptohc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11719 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86487 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Android Controller App
I did contemplate the idea of trying to get external access to the squeezebox server but for obvious reasons didn't want unauthenticated access to the server so I enabled basic auth security. Unfortunately I was unable to find ANY android app that will connect to stream.mp3 while it has basic auth enabled. So in the end I gave up and installed Subsonic on the server and phone which works wonders and squeezeboxserver and subsonic sit happily together on the same machine. I have however just as an experiment took a squeezebox v3 with me in the car connected to my HTC Desire via Wifi Hotspot (Three UK - unlimited data) and connected to the squeezebox to SqueezeNetwork with general success - I see no reason why it would not be able to connect to the internal server over 3G - but I am hesitant to provide external CLI access to the server as I don't know how hack proof it is. -- nptohc nptohc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11719 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86487 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Android Controller App
Hi, Just to let you know I am the Andrew who has been corresponding via email for the last 2 days. Many thanks for addressing my issues. I have today sent a new email with some bugs - and a video to demonstrate the bug. I am unsure at present whether the bug is an Android App bug or a server bug. However I do know that I am unable to rate any tracks (or at least the android app doesn't show that they have been rated. I will do some more digging via the web interface to see if rating a track does actually rate it.

Re: [slim] Synchronized DB3 suddenly stops.
I have often had this problem - basically ever since 6.5.x The previous version seemed to be a lot better - but the issues I have had so far this year: 1) 1 Squeezebox out of the crowd that are synced up will randomly stop outputting audio (but the device and display indicate it is playing). This will ONLY happen at the start of a new song - I had wondered for a long time if it was a crossfading issue. 2) The squeezeboxes will occasionaly go out of sync (audio wise) and then when a squeezebox finishes playing the song it is on and moves onto the next one - the other squeezebox (which always seems to be the one designated as master) will change to the new song and restart both squeezeboxes off playing the same song again - it's as if the software is attempting to resync the players - however this is NOT reflected in the Web interface which is generally at this point one song behind what is ACTUALLY being played. 3) The latest issues I have been having - when playing just the one squeezebox - it will happily play non-stop for days and then all of a sudden for no apparent reason it suddenly dies and comes up with "Slim Devices" on the screen before going through the whole conneting to network process etc again. At this point the web interface will report that I have no players - and the player will say "connecting to slimserver" but never does. I have to press the power button several times on the remote and go through the "waking up slimserver" messages before it finally reconnects - and of course I then have to start my dynamic playlist all over again. The slimserver has been moved to a new computer (the old one every morning has a message on the screen saying "slim.exe this program has encountered an error and needs to close" etc.. neither of the two computers have ever had any sort of standby feature enabled - as they are often doing other things. Slimserver is now on a dedicated computer - but the computer is on 24/7 - so my dynamic playlists have a chance to play right through (so customers returning don't hear the same music that was on the day before) Thats all for now Andy -- nptohc nptohc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11719 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35479 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
