Re: [slim] PDA controller solution
Hi Apologies for the delay in responding. I tried version 1.30 and can confirm that the same problem occurs for every track that is protected (i.e. where a licence is needed). When slimcontrol starts caching my library, it stops reading the folder contents as soon as it comes across a protected track. However if the track is in a subfolder, the program continues to read to the end of all folders w/o problem. I spent a few hours yesterday to get a licence for all my copy protected tracks, and/or remove the protection. I haven't yet had a chance to delete and recreate the cache, but I guess this time it'll work fine. It would be great however if slimcontrol could add protected music to the library when reading folder content, even if it can't play it. Cheers and thanks again for this brilliant software !

Re: [slim] PDA controller solution
Hello I have been using slimcontrol 1.00 for over a week now on a HD2, and I think it is truely brilliant. My previous HD was a bit slow (maybe the cache was on the SD card, I can't remember), but now the fact that I can browse my music library makes it a brilliant tool. I just have one question which I couldnt find anywhere in the manual and on forums - apologies if this was brought up and discussed before. When browsing with my HD2, for some folders the tracks subfolders are only displayed partially, for example only until the letter E. The rest is not visible. Is there a track limit per folder that slimcontrol can handle ? I tried deleting the slimcontrol cache and restarting the software. I also deleted the music library on the squeezebox server and let it rescan the whole library without success, to ensure that the contents of the affected folders are visible via squeezebox server.

Re: [slim] PDA controller solution
Hallo Locuth What you said made me think, so I moved the last folders that slimcontrol could read out of the directory. After some back and forth, it turns out the reason slimcontrol was stopping to read was because of this track name (don't judge me, I like the song :) : GaryBarlow_-_OpenRoad_-_8_-_OpenRoad.wma When I move this track out of the folder the whole folder is read to the end as normal. Now I don't know slimcontrol had problems because the track is wma, or because of the underscores in the filename, or because it was a protected file. When I changed the track name to GaryBarlow - OpenRoad.wma it failed again. I still have the original file, please let me know if you need any info further than what I have posted below : Codec: Windows Media Audio 9 Duration: 4:21.999 Bitrate: 128.016 kbps File Size: 4,522,597 WM Version: 9.00.00.3250 Seekable: Yes Stridable: No Broadcast: No Protected: Yes Trusted: Yes Contains: Audio Many thanks for pointing me in the right direction ! -- sbirsen sbirsen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=30689 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62486 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
