[slim] Re: Remote streaming with Palm/Treo 700p: security questions
I have the 650p treo and use it to access the web interface to control the sb that powers my outdoor speakers. See attached for a handheld skin that I modified for useability/speed of navigation on the treo. Also, I sometimes stream from myip.dyndns.com:9000\stream.mp3 to my treo using pockettunes though not that often. I only use the slimserver based security (username/password, no ip restrictions as my treo ip address always changes) for that streaming as pssh is rather difficult to use. In pockettunes, you can setup a url favorite to username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:9000\stream.mp3. Setup bitrate limiting on your player on slimserver to 64k or 96k. However, you can only stream your harddrive music, not any internet radio streams through your slimserver. For some reason, internet radio does not use bitrate limiting. +---+ |Filename: TreoHandheld.zip | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1800| +---+ -- rme rme's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1551 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28192 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] internet radio buffering question
I am trying to figure out what the use of radio station buffering seconds is in server settings/network/radio station buffering seconds. Does it buffer data to slimserver from the internet to help with internet download latency or buffer seconds onto a squeezebox from the slimserver to help with lan/wireless latency locally? I don't have any problems with lan speed, therefore would like to set it to 1 or 0 if it only buffers between slimserver and sb and avoid station change delays if that is the case. However, would like to take advantage of internet latency buffering if that is what it is really doing.

I have a problem with the volume controls on your skin in that when I select a new volume (say changing from 6 to 7) for the first time, it will transmit and process the change properly. The web browser says sending and then receiving However, when I select a previously selected volume level (say changing back to 6 or from 8 to 7 when previously selected above), the web browser does not transmit the change. It only says redrawing. It seems that in the palm browser it does not force a refresh ande resend of the volume level if it is had prevously been selected. Is there a way to program your skin to more specifically force a refresh everytime something gets selected or touched on a screen, even if it was previously selected?

Also note that this option may leave a few extra bytes in a PADDING block as the exact size of the tags is not known until all files are processed.
