Server would crash on resizing artwork on a PPC Mac. It meant that I
couldn't upgrade beyond v7.5.6 because every time I tried to play music
on my Touch, the server crashed.

It doesn't now - and the changing library size reported by others
doesn't seem to be an issue for me - so I'm happy. :-)

I've tried 7.6.1r33004 on a PPC Mac running OS X 10.5.8.

I can play anything on my Squeezebox Classic (i.e. with a VFD that
doesn't display artwork). However as soon as I do anything that tries
to display (or possibly resize) artwork in the web interface or on my
Duet's Controller, the server crashes. Starting it from the terminal
shows the following in the log when playing a file and then trying to
display the artwork:

Other than not this stopping me from using the web interface Touch or

Does anyone know how to prevent artwork from being displayed other than
by deleting it all? I can't see a setting in the web interface.

Wonderful! 

Another feature I'd love to see is the player piano approach of
scanning sheet music that is converted to an audio file and played
immediately. Plus of course the reverse feature of printing sheet music
from any audio file being played.

Plus a rechargeable battery pack for use outdoors or in the bathroom.

Re: [slim] Connecting SB3 directly to old mac mini

2009-12-20 Thread testmatch

Andrew B.;497400 Wrote: 
 
 
 I have an old Mac mini that I thought I would use to run the server
 software and connect to the hard disk. It is a pre-Intel one so I had a
 bit of a runaround trying to get an old version of Squeezecenter that
 would run on it - I now have 7.3.4 and the server side seems fine. 
 

I know this isn't the main thrust of your question, but I run the beta
of 7.5 on one of the first batch of minis - a 1.42GHz PPC macine with
1GB of RAM and it's fine - much faster on 7.5 than on 7.3. That is on OS
X 10.5 - upgraded several times from the original 10.3 (I think) that
came on it. So it's certainly possible to use it on such a relatively
elderly, low-powered, machine.

Re: [slim] Logitech should hire Pippin! Those having difficulty w/Controller should get iPeng.

ajkidle;493429 Wrote: 
 There are many reasons it might not be a good idea for Logitech to
 formally hire Pippin (namely, Pippin may not be interested.)  However, I
 believe Logitech would be well served by formally sponsoring and
 branding the iPeng app.  To a new customer, I think it looks sloppy that
 the app is (1) not free and (2) not associated with Logitech in any
 way.
 

How would you treat the developers of the other applications for
controlling Squeezeboxes on the iPhone, Android and various other
platforms. There's no Logitech-branded control application for the
increasingly popular Android phones, but there are at least four free
applications and at least one paid (the stunningly-good Squeeze
Commander) that provide some of the same facilities and sometimes more.
There's also Moose for Windows users - an application I love and use all
the time. 

In other words (and this is a serious question), why single out the
developer of one application when I suspect very few of us have tried
all of them, and so aren't in a position to judge between them?

 Does anyone else have the latest 7.5 and MusicIP running? Are your

I can answer yes to the first two questions above, as they're fine
for me on today's nightly of 7.5 with MusicIP V1.8. As to the final
question, the only thing that comes to mind is to try a rescan in case
MusicIp wasn't running the last time your library was scanned. Other
than that, I'm afraid I can't think of anything.

Sorry - I meant another rescan. I have sometimes found MuscIP to claim
to complete a scan but not to show the mixable status icon. That was
most noticeable when I added new music to the library. A second rescan
has always sorted that out for me. Mind you, it hasn't happened to me
since moving to 7.5.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] SqueezeCommander 0.9 for Android

2009-11-14 Thread testmatch

Hi,

Having tried the three free applications on the Android Market, I
thought I'd try SqueezeCommander for 24 hours and decide if I wanted to
keep it or get the purchase refunded. Within 30 minutes of playing with
it I was hooked, and decided to keep it. It's a seriously impressive
application and runs wonderfully on my HTC Magic with Android 1.6. 

It takes a little while to get used to, but it's so fast and powerful
that I felt I had to express my delight.

One thing that I'd like to see implemented is the option to have an
icon in the notification area to quickly return to the application when
it's running in the background. The free Squeezer has that, and is the
only feature of the others that I miss so far.

With at least three free and two paid-for applications available for
Android phones (and other devices), I think that means we Android 
Squeezebox users have the widest choice of any operating system!

Someone should do a comparative review of the options available to us.
I might have a go at that unless someone beats me to it in the next few
weeks.

John
