[slim] Squeezebox Remote - Please Wait

2009-12-16 Thread jdjespersen

Hi people,

I just bought a Squeezebox Duet, and store my music on a Synology
DS210j NAS box.

Whenever I pick up my remote (after leaving it down for a while) the
diplay says Please Wait for about 60-90 seconds, before I can start
navigating the menus.

Why??

I have tried running Squeezebox Server on a (fast!) PC, and it did not
help any. (I was afraid my Synology was maybe too slow).

I am running on a wide open wireless network, reception is fine on the
remote, around 70-80%.

So I'm wondering why the long wakeup period. Any ideas for tuning
or tweaking my setup? 

Thanks,
jdjespersen

A power saving feature in the remote (controller) is that it will sleep
after a certain amount of time.  This is what is happening.

If it is sleeping too quickly for you or if you rather it didn't sleep
at all, you can change it in the controller settings.

I don't have a controller in front of me so I can't tell you how to
naviate to the change.

Hello!

Yes, the Controller (or SBC for SqueezeBox Controller as it is more
familiarly known on the Forum) does go into suspended mode and usually
takes a while to recover. You can disable this by going to
Settings-Advanced-Factory Test-Power management. Here you can set the
Sleep and Suspend timeout somewhat longer than default. The values are
seconds, so the maximum Suspend timeout is one hour. It's even possible
to disable Suspend altogether. Be aware that the battery will run flat
if you leave the Controller outside of the cradle with Suspend
disabled.

I'd guess most Duet users here have tweaked these settings to get the
Controller into an usable state. What you experienced and described
clearly isn't quite that.

Server performance doesn't affect this behaviour.

I'm sure you'll grow to love the SqueezeBox!

Thanks for your answers, but...  :-)

Whats exactly does the following menu items mean:

Sleep Timeout (values from 10 to 120)
Suspend Timeout (values from 10 to 3600)
Suspend Enabled (true or false)
Wireless Power Save (true or false)

??

Can't seem to find these documented anywhere

Again, thanks..
