Thanks for the update. I couldn't get it to start, no matter how many reboots. Then again, I have a fresh system that I just reformatted so it couldn't be anything that was left from an old uninstall or something. At any rate, I was able to get the 6.3 maintenance release to work - I just don't know if it is officially supported. *shrugs* -- EnochLight EnochLight's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3392 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=24014 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

jodrell, If you upgrade / downgrade to / from 6.5 to any other version - it is worth deleting your database slimserversql.db file entirely before doing the upgrade / downgrade.

I had a similar issue. I deleted the .pref file and reinstalled 6.2.1 which still works. It did cause some strange issues with my SB2 though, and I had to reflash the firmware to get things really back to normal. It's a pain though, because as soon as you delete the .pref fiile, you obviously lose favourites and any other customisations. -- markcaines markcaines's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1605 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21141 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

for problems playing files, go into server settings-debugging. check d_source, click change click the link at the end of the text at the top to open a browser window for the log. try playing the file. The log will show how the server is trying to play the file, whether it is native playback (command: -) or some combination of flac/lame, etc. It will also show any errors when reading the file contents. feel free to post sections of that log here if it doesn't seem clear to you. -kdf ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

I have also taken the step of disconnecting SB2 and then restarting slimserver to see if there may be some confusion over which one is the SB1. SB1 display was acting like it is playing something.
