[slim] Should crossfading work with synchronised players?
I have a Squeezebox 2 and 3. Neither crossfades when they are synchronised but both do when they are not. Does synchronising 2 players remove the ability to crossfade? Thanks. (It didn't use to work with SoftSqueeze and a Squeezebox synchronised either but I thought that was a limitation of SoftSqueeze) Kevin ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Now I know that I can stop trying to fix it! I'm surprised it had so few votes - only 1. I can only assume people either aren't synchronising or don't crossfade. I added my vote as well although I don't expect one more will make much difference. It doesn't occur to me to search the bugs when I have a problem I generally assume it's me! I'll make a point of doing so in future. Kevin ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

In article <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Michaelwagner wrote: > Well, synchronization has been a feature since early in the development > of the Slimserver software. Perhaps it's grand age is why it's 'not well'! I'm listening to two Squeezeboxes perfectly synchronised but Moose is telling me they are playing a different track to what they are actually playing. I then went to the SlimServer web interface which shows the same track playing as Moose and doesn't even have the tracks they are playing in it's current playlist (they are on 'random mode') so it looks like it is SlimServer that has become confused. What's strange is that the audio scrobbler plug-in is logging the correct tracks at lastfm. The only 'fix' seems to be a restart of SlimServer. It's a shame Synchronisation doesn't work as well as it should as that was my primary driver for buying the units.

Don't worry it does occur on 6.2/Windows! I have added my vote - always forget about that, although I wonder if anyone ever looks at the votes?

Re: [slim] Should crossfading work with synchronised players?
anyone know if there is any update on this now that we are at SqueezeCenter v7.0? Crossfade + sync would make life much better.

Re: [slim] Should crossfading work with synchronised players?
The posting I made 2006-01-26, 18:00 is still, I believe, technically correct. Cross-fading synched players requires a different synch method, which in turn requires (or so they said back then) a different network time base. I don't believe I saw network time base in the feature list for 7, and it's a complex addition to the protocol, not something they could just toss in casually. -- Michaelwagner Michaelwagner's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=428 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20369 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Should crossfading work with synchronised players?
I also would appreciate If there is a function that let the SB3 simultaneously make use of crossfade when play more than one player.

Re: [slim] Should crossfading work with synchronised players?
I admit that I have not tested it, but I expect that crossfade will come for free with the gapless-sync that is slated for 7.2. The gapless sync is working well by the way. [And we do look at votes - it is one of the top criteria used when considering bugs for resolution in upcoming releases. But, of course, other things get considered too.] -- awy awy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7480 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20369 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

When did gapless sync come into 7.2? I'm running build 20910 of 7.2 from about two weeks ago and hadn't been paying that close attention when listening (or bothering to read the changelogs) to notice whether it was a short gap or truly gapless. -- aubuti aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20369 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Should crossfading work with synchronised players?
I, too, crave the cross-fade with synched players. It just adds that extra something for parties! In fact, I bought 2 of these blasted things thinking it would FIX the crossfade I was lacking with one using Softsqueeze. Oh well... still love these things, but come on, SlimDevices, give us a decent synched crossfade! -- tgoodman tgoodman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13662 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20369 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
