Re: [slim] 02 Joggler 50 quid again
I know it's an old, old thread - but for anybody using a joggler: I've installed Linux Mint and it's a very pleasant experience. http://joggler.exotica.org.uk/mint/ Easier to set up than Ubuntu - although lots in the image files that can be uninstalled if you just want a tiny LMS server.

Re: [slim] 02 Joggler 50 quid again
I love my Joggler and you're right Mint works very well. However if you want the joggler to be a dedicated part of your squeezebox universe I'd actually suggest roobarbs SqueezeplayOS to be a better option, its based on Ubuntu 10.04 but without a desktop environment, squeezeplay is the native GUI. It includes loads of useful extras, MPlayer so you can use Play WMA and Play AAC and other plugins to support those file types, Shairport for Apple Airplay support, LMS and some other nice stuff. You can even install a modified version of Triodes EDO app and with a suitable DAC get 24/192 working Obviously you can all this stuff to Mint easily enough but IMO this is better for the job. All just my opinion and it's easy to try all the options by swopping USB sticks (although SqueezeplayOS can be installed on the internal memory as well which is cool) I personally don't use the Jogglers wifi which is actually a USB device installed internally so boot mine from a USB stick installed internally for a neater look and to have the USB port free. Anyway I rambled on there much more than I meant to, as you can tell I rather like the joggler. :-) Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD jimbobvfr400's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56857 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78759 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] 02 Joggler 50 quid again
OK then, So I was waiting for an Android-based tablet to use as a remote for my SqueezeBoxen, but now that the Joggler is back down to £50, I am sorely tempted; I just need some advice: Bearing in mind that I have no experience of installing any flavour of linux, how easy is it to get the Joggler into a state where it can run SqueezePlay? Once up and running, can the Joggler be used solely as a remote for the SqueezeBoxen that I already have (which is what I want), or does it just become another player attached to the network? With Ubuntu and SqueezePlay installed, would I have to reinstall the original OS and drivers to be able to use the hardware as a Joggler again, or is it possible to jump back and forth between SqueezePlay and Joggler functionality? Although very cheap for a touchscreen remote, I am just trying to decide if a more expensive future Android product would be much neater and nicer to use with SqueezePlay as an app that sits on it rather than having to install a whole new OS to get partial functionality.

Re: [slim] 02 Joggler 50 quid again
I must say, £50 for a large touch screen Squeezebox is very tempting. Few quick Q's... I see in the video on Youtube that the user is using the scroll bar to navigate through the album lists etc. Could be very fiddly, can you swipe like you can with the touch? What's the sound like and what audio out's does it have? Just 3.5mm headphone? When using headphones or amp/speakers does it sound ok? I know next to nothing about Linux, would it be possible to get it to boot straight to Squeezeplay to use it as a dedicated remote/player? -- autopilot Cheers, auto. *lounge:* squeezebox 3, squeezebox controller, cambridge audio 640a, mission 701's *kitchen:* squeezebox touch, trends ta-10.1, kef cresta 1's. *bedroom:* squeezebox boom *bathroom/garden:* squeezebox radio *car:* ipod classic 80gb *portable:* iphone 3gs 32gb (+ipeng) autopilot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1763 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78759 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

The sounds not brilliant but it makes a great bedside alarm clock, considering another for the kitchen! -- dave77 Boom - Controller - Touch - Joggler(SqueezePlay) - SBS 7.5 on Acer Revo R3610 Win7 dave77's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=26269 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78759 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
