After several nights, it works perfectly. I've been off this week, so it
actually has been sitting off about 24 hours - between when I go to bed
one night and the same time the next night.

Thanks, Peter!

My SB3 is the most expensive part of my stereo. So I'm not going to brag
about it.
And my SBB as well...Is it wrong that my alarm clock is worth more than
most of my stereo components? I need to work on that.

Peter,

I just noticed that your repository (using SC 7.3.1) shows version
7a26...does this include the fix you placed in the 7a20 version you
referred to?

Edit: NM - I should refresh and read newer posts before I reply to
myself!

Thanks,
Andrew

Great. FYI, the latest production release of SaverSwitcher now has the
stack-trimming logic, so 
you don't need to use my testing version/repo.

Re: [slim] Boom Restart with SuperDateTime?

2008-12-08 Thread peterw

Andrew, if you want to give it a try, I just posted a lightly tested
version of SaverSwitcher with code that keeps the client mode stack
more trim as it changes savers -- version 7a19. I'd love to hear if
this makes a difference for you. It's in my TESTING area:

Is that the only weird log message you see???

Two thoughts:

1) SaverSwitcher does handle/wrap IR events, and Boom button presses
are treated by SC7 as IR events, but I don't think that's the problem
here. If you don't use a remote with numbered buttons, you might as
well set the SaverSwitcher button control to disabled to minimize the
likelihood that it's SS' IR code.

2) There's likely a "mode stack" problem. See comments #22 and
following on
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35650&page=3. With your
setup, the client's mode stack is growing by 4 items every minute, and
even though SDT is very efficient, there's likely to be some lag when
you power on as the mode stack is torn down. The mode stack would be
almost 4000 items long after that 4:40-22:00 stretch. Last year I tried
modifying SaverSwitcher so that it would do some mode stack cleanup as
it ran, but hit some nasty problems (my fault, I'm sure:
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35650&page=4), and so I
abandoned that route. I've learned a bit more about SC7's screensaver
code, and there've been some important changes since 7.0.1 (and
improvements in SaverSwitcher), so maybe I should revisit that
approach.

I only use SDT--not Saverswitcher--and I have not had anything like that
happening running 7.3 under Windows Home Server.

[slim] Boom Restart with SuperDateTime?

2008-12-04 Thread androidtopp

This may not be the right place to post, but I'll give it a shot. Ever
since I installed SuperDateTime and SaverSwitcher (for use on my Boom)
I am getting odd power-on behavior.

I usually flip the Boom on at night to listen to something as I'm
falling asleep. So it's now roughly 10pm, and the Boom has been off and
unused since it woke me up this morning at about 4:40am. When I press
power, I get a quick flash (a second or two) of a little
SlimDevices/Logitech logo, and then the screen goes dark for a few
seconds. Then it turns itself off and goes back to displaying the
standard clock. If I press power again, it boots right up, no problems,
ready to go. If I turn it off and turn it back on, there are no issues.

So, it seems like after a certain amount of time, the first time I try
to turn on the Boom, it chokes on something and shuts back off.
Subsequent attempts within whatever this timeout window is work fine -
no automatic power off. Also of note, every time I see this power off
behavior, I get the following entry in my server.log:

[08-12-03 22:28:15.6543] Slim::Hardware::IR::executeButton (1088)
Error: Subroutine for irCode: [voldown_front.hold] mode: [] does not
exist!

I am running SC 7.2.1 on Server 2003 x86, and the active plugins that
seem to have triggered the issue are SuperDateTime in combination with
SaverSwitcher. I get 10 seconds of weather followed by 20 seconds of
clock. Not sure if this is relevant, but it feels like the problem is
related to one or both of these plugins.

Has anyone seen this issue before with these plugins? It's not a big
deal...just annoying.

Thanks,
Andrew
