Hi, Does the SliMp3 send WOL commands or is it to primative to do this?

Thanks

Richard

I can't answer that. I don't use any mp3 files, sorry.

The font of knowledge that solved my PRO SC clean-up add-on and gave
the link I referenced above was usbethjim (same monica here and on
Netgear - hadn't realised). Perhaps he, or someone else, knows this
sytem?

 (As you can see from this, the Duet does not handle WoL).

You're not reading correctly the wiki table: the Duet will not use IR
to wake-up. But it will send wol packets when you press buttons on the
Controller, or the fan button on the Receiver.

I have a Duet, I assure you I remember the day this started working :)

(And, I agree with you: for me 2 quick presses to right or power
are very easy when I want to wake the server. And *sometimes* I like to
start the SB3 -or Boom-, left it fail to connect and then press 'left'
to configure locally connection to SN, all without waking the server.)

Re: [slim] Wake On LAN from SB3

2009-06-15 Thread Cape11

I'm coming around to being perfectly happy with the way the SB3 handles
WoL. Gorman: what you desribe is exactly the same as I experience - I
think - perhaps I didn't make it clear.

It means I can be selective in the way I use my hi-fi and perhaps
alternate between SN and SC without any unecessary use of the NAS; the
NAS can be off and saving power for much longer with this way of
working.

I've now programmed my Philips Pronto to 'push' the correct SB3 buttons
as and when required - now all I have to do is wait (im)patiently for
the NAS to start SC (60 S. There might be ways of improving this
operation as well if I give it a little more thought.

Looks like the Duet could do with a bug fix though - but I haven't got
one of those.

[slim] Wake On LAN from SB3

2009-06-10 Thread Cape11

My NAS is a ReadyNAS PRO; it has Wake On LAN capability.

I first assumed that all I'd have to do to turn on the PRO remotely was
to turn on any SB.

But a SB doesn't appear to do this. On first power-up the SB makes its
network connection and then tries to connect to SC, but because the PRO
is off it makes no connection. However, if you wait until the SB has
failed to make the connection to a 'dead' PRO and then press the On/Off
button on the remote controller, the SB display says 'Wake up
SqueezeCenter' (or something like this - definitely with the word Wake
in the line) and the PRO starts up.

That's a perfectly acceptable way of operating - it means that if you
have a SB integrated into a hi-fi system where there are other sound
sources, the PRO doesn't start every time you turn the hi-fi on, but can
be arranged to turn on when you want it.

But is this feature mentioned an any manual anywhere, and have I
understood everything about this 'feature'?

Often one hears the expression It's not a bug, it's a feature. But
this time it's the other way around. It's a known issue, and there are
two related bugs/enhancement requests, although it's not clear that
either are being worked on at present. Nor is it clear that if these are
resolved that they will also resolve the related issue that you
describe. You can vote for these bugs/enhancement requests, and
apparently votes really do matter in setting priorities for
development.

I use this feature in the same way as you describe it, my SB3 is
connected to my AV receiver switched power socket and I do not need the
SC server to be powered on when I watch TV.

You can already press the power button to send a WoL packet when the
SB3 shows the connectin to SC message.

To send a WoL packet when the SB is switched from SN to SC makes sense,
but it should not affect the current behavior when it is powered on.

Re: [slim] Wake On LAN from SB3

2009-06-10 Thread gorman

Strange, what I experience is:

Server on standby, press power on the remote, Waking up server
message, wait, wait, wait, Squeezebox is connected to Squeezecenter but
in off state. Another power press is required to turn it on.

This assuming that the SB was off when the server went to sleep, it
basically comes back the way it was when the server went into standby. I
feel it should turn on anyway.
I would say there are far fewer cases when one would use a Squeezebox
remote just to wake up a server remotely than there are of somebody
turning on a Squeezebox because he wants to use it to listen to some
music.
