For example, loop://www.mysqueezebox.com/static/sounds/effects/scuba_diver.mp3 stops after 27 seconds on both of my SB1s while the Boom in the same sync group keeps bubbling on. Likewise loop://www.mysqueezebox.com/static/sounds/effects/city.mp3 stops after about 2 minutes on the SB1. I don't believe that the SB1 has a buffer that can hold 2 minutes of audio at all, so it must be fed by the server anyway. I'm only wondering whether the server is supposed to do the looping but fails to do so, or if it just isn't supported. -- usch usch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33389 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72034 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

You should not have any problem like that. Although I did know the sound effects originated from SN/MySB, I did not know they were just a buffer fill & loop. I started one, disconnected the SB3's ethernet, 45 minutes later it was still playing. :) -- toby10 toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72034 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] What has happened sound effects on SB3?
I have no idea why you would have any problems with the sounds. They should play in a loop basically forever as long as you have power. :) -- andyg andyg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72034 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

You should not have any problem like that. Interesting, thanks for this. Whenever I have buffering problems I assumed it was my Internet connection or 7.4. Sometimes I have rebuffering problems or a complete stop after a few minutes of the sound. Do you know why I would experience this with my Boom if the sound is downloading to the buffer and just looping on the player?

All the sound effects/nature sounds fit completely into the player's buffer. After it downloads it once there is no additional network traffic for the audio.

No, they have never been local. (It used to be you actually had to sign onto SN to get them... then it became more transparent in switching, the reorganization of SN->MySB just makes that transparency less, well, transparent.) (The reason for this is not just size, as I recall, it also has to do with the licenses on the sounds and their 'redistribute' clauses.) -- snarlydwarf snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72034 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] What has happened sound effects on SB3?
Speaking of the sound effects, is there a means to get them permanently on the server? They now seem useless if ones Internet is down or am I doing something wrong? Comcast is doing a major equipment upgrade so the Internet is down from about 22:00 to 06:00 everyday and the better half can't go to sleep by Ocean Surf because the Boom can't get to mysb.com. I have some relaxation CDs ripped but all of them have light music along with the natural sounds and the better half has really gotten used to the nice natural sounds only coming from the Squeezebox. Looks like there is no going back now. -- iPhone *iPhone* Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, Vandersteen Speakers: Quatro Mains, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Video: Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1 Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: Second Boom Bathroom: Squeezebox Radio Ford Thunderbird: Duet, Mac Mini Ford Expedition: SB Touch, USB drive iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72034 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] What has happened sound effects on SB3?
I don't find a thread about that: What has happened to the nice sound effect features which have been offered by the SB3 some time ago? I remember things like 'bon fire', 'thunder', 'traffic', 'waves' and so on. May be they have been in the extras-section, I don't remember. Now I can find on SB Server only "Alarm Clock", "Music Source", "Info Browser" and "Podcasts". (Version: 7.4.1 - r28947 ) Have they been eliminated with one of the recent updates?
