Re: [slim] SB3 display not working with 7.4
G. I *PRAYED* this wouldn't happen to me, and sure enough it did. Even worse, I have no display on 2 Booms and 2 SB3's. I've tried the 'clean cache' method described above and it's not made a difference. Is there *anything* else that can be tried short of trashing my settings?

Re: [slim] SB3 display not working with 7.4
If this is of any use to anyone else or the SB devs, I managed to sort this out by individually resetting the prefs of each player (and then manually restoring the settings of each!) All of my players use SaverSwitcher and SuperDateTime - not sure if either of these could have had anything to do with it?? -- twynne 2 x Booms, 2 x SB3, 1 x Duet, 1 x SB Radio twynne's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1326 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69148 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] SB3 display not working with 7.4
I suffered a scrambled display on the Classic until it managed to perform a factory reset. Had to do a clean install of Squeezebox Server first (I chose 7.4.1 in an attempt to fix the other problem i.e. failure to scan music folders). -- onlineman onlineman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33327 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69148 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] SB3 display not working with 7.4
Could you go to Settings/Player in the web UI and hit the Reset player settings or similar button at the bottom? ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

It was the same to my new sb3 at fryday.

OK i am running now 7.4 on my laptop for testing and my eeebox runs still the 7.33 so i can use it. The duet and the other SB3 run independant my normal 7.3 server. Lets say so. I am shure now to cancel me christmass wish for the touch and radio. The Sonos basic set seems to me a deal to give a try. the best SB was until now SB3 because from 6 m distance you can still read the display. Was more better to invest in a new SB3 than a SB receiver, because of the good display.

Re: [slim] SB3 display not working with 7.4
I reset the SB3 to factory defaults and checked the brightness. The player works fine with the exception that there is a display only when the SB3 has been unplugged and is starting up. As soon as it connects to my network the display turns off. I have discovered that the display shows for a brief moment when I press the play or pause buttons but then immediately goes out again. -- daverich4 daverich4's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16539 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69148 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] SB3 display not working with 7.4
I have seen similar behaviour - since going to 7.4, two of my SB2s have suddenly shown no display (but audio still working OK) on mysqueezebox.com. Now I know it's maybe not just me I will investigate further - check the brightness, reset the player. -- mooblie Martin at *_'HeadSpin_HD' (http://www.headspin.plus.com)_* now on -*Blu-ray-* mooblie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15378 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69148 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] SB3 display not working with 7.4
Ii had the same problem. The only fix was to remove all traces of the Slim software from my Mac (running snow leopard) and then reinstalling the nightly beta build of 7.4.1. Both of my SB3's now work fine. It's drastic, but it did fix it.

Re: [slim] SB3 display not working with 7.4
I am running Squeezebox on an old Macbook and had the same problem on one of my 2 SB3's. One was just displaying fine, the other connected and then went dark. Tried all settings, brightness and other obvious steps but to no avail. I then decided to delete all preference files and to clean the cache folder through the new Squeezebox server preference pane. I obviously had to start from scratch by setting up my favorites again and all the settings but now my 2 SB3's work flawlessly and display everything. Drastic but for me it worked.

Re: [slim] SB3 display not working with 7.4
This is not a 7.4 only problem I've had similar issues before somewhere down the line in 7.3 beta . The solution was not as clever as it could have been, blow away either the entire cache folder, if that does not work a completely clean install . Btwd eleting the cache folder does remove all settings and forces the sbs to do a full rescan, so if one does this and sbs is a little unresponsive, it's just scanning. I has to be pointed out that ss/sc/sbs do not migrate gracefully every time . A remove of the old stuff and a full install may be required from time to time. Edit: In general when ss/sc/sbs is acting very weird this has often been the thing thats helped in the end. This is often true for Linux versions . How similar the OSX is to a real Linux ?

Urs Thanks for the tip. Hoping to not have to start from scratch I followed your suggestion and went to the Server preference pane but only cleaned up the cache folder NOT the preference files. Back in business and still have my favorites other settings.

If I unplug the SB3 and plug it back in the display shows the normal startup steps but right after the display says that it is connecting to my network the display turns off. As part of the 7.4 install I did upgrade the firmware on my SB3. I did a search and didn't find anyone else having this problem so can someone give me a hand? Thanks. Is it trying to connect to the wireless network still, or does this happen when it tries to connect to myqueezebox.com?
