Re: [slim] broken remote? here have a new squeezebox
I've been impressed with the continued developments in the Squeeze line and software since aquisition by Logitech. I had a Logitech portable speaker unit for iPod (mine's rockboxed) that had a bad aux input jack. When I called Logitech about it, after the CSR was satisfied that I had properly troubleshot the problem, they just sent me a new unit. The ipod dock on the old one still works, so I have a mostly functional second unit now. Hope it's all working out well for you, Sean. -- bephillips More than 40,797 songs on 3,200 albums by 2,273 artists. Mostly flac, some mp3 and aac.

Harmony remotes start at around $40 and are fully SB compatible (you program them from an online database which includes all the required codes). -- radish radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58863 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Ahh, chuck it in this direction! However, I would keep it and get the codes for the player here: http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload.php?action=file&file_id=1004 Buy a cheep compatible all-for-one remote, build or buy a programming cable and read as much as you can about the JP1 project here: http://www.hifi-remote.com/jp1/index.shtml If you're not up for all that, I suspect you can do the same for more money if you buy a harmony remote, but I'm not sure (if you need a working remote to learn from - maybe, maybe not). ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Are you complaining? :-) You may want to put it on eBay...with a clear disclaimer about the problem you were having with it. -- Mark Lanctot Current: SB2, Transporter, Boom (PQP3 - late beta), SBC (early beta) Stored: Boom (PQP1 - early beta) Sold: SB3, Duet Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58863 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
