Re: [slim] HELP!!! Music scan terminated unexpectedly (Directory Scan)

2010-05-25 Thread rickoleum

I tried brucegrr's suggestion and disabled MSE.  The scan worked fine
with MSE disabled.

Thanks for the tip.  

Rick

Re: [slim] HELP!!! Music scan terminated unexpectedly (Directory Scan)

2010-05-24 Thread rickoleum

I don't have a solution, but a simlar thing happened to me and I'm not
quite sure why.  

Here is the readout of the Music Scan Details on the Information Page


Directory Scan   (20748  of  20748)   Complete  00:26:36
Playlist Scan   (9  of  9)   Complete  00:00:07
Merge Various Artists   (1  of  1528)   Complete  00:00:17
Copland Conducts Copland
Music scan terminated unexpectedly (Merge Various Artists)
Total Time: 00:27:00 (Monday, May 24, 2010 / 12:15 AM)

I would attach the scanner log file but it is huge and seems to be too
big to post.

Any thoughts / suggestions would be appreciated.

[slim] SqueezeCenter slow; drops out; Time to return my duet?

2008-04-27 Thread rickoleum

I recently installed Squeezecenter 7.0 (to go with my new duet).  

Previously I had been running slimserver 6.5.4 with my Squeezebox and
the whole system worked perfectly w/ no issues and minimal fuss.   

Immediately after installation, I noticed that the response time for
Squeezecenter was very slow; Squeezecenter froze and hung up; songs cut
in and out; the duet seemed to lose its connection; the duet would
report that the player couldn't find the squeezecenter.  (This happened
with both my new receiver and my old squeezebox.)

I uninstalled Squeezecenter, reinstalled 6.5.4 and my old Squeezebox
worked once again like a charm.  

I have read through a number of posts involving folks with similar
issues (I am running slimserver on windows xp, wired ethernet
connection, relatively new belkin router).  What I took from the posts
is that there doesn't appear to be any clear fix.  The various
suggestions are either beyond my modest computer abilities or look like
they'll take too much time.  

I'm nearing the end of the 30-day return period for the duet and I have
concluded that I will just have to send the duet back.  This is
disappointing because I am a huge fan of the squeezebox and was looking
forward to being able to use (and my wife using) the small controller. 


Am I missing something?  

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

[slim] mp3 files corrupted?

2006-06-04 Thread rickoleum

Before I even got my SB3, I had ripped a bunch of files to mp3 in
itunes.  (I know there are better formats/better ripping progams, but
that's what I did.)

The songs played fine on itunes.  

I moved them to the computer that I am using for the SB server and
initially they played fine on sb3.  Now all of a sudden they won't play
at all on itunes or on sb3. (they cause the sb3 to crash.)

When I try to play them in windows media player (WMP), I get a message
saying 

the file you are attempting to play has an extension that does not
match the file format.  Playing the file may result in unexpected
behavior.

Do you want the Player to play the file?

When I click yes on that WMP can't play the file because WMP may not
support the file type or support the codec that was used to compress
the file.  

Any ideas?  (other than rerip the cd's in a better format . . . )

Thanks.

Rick
