It should work with radio streams to, when you are listening to radio trough your local server AND syncs then the server is in reality only using one stream from the web station and proxies it to your multiple players.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Sync is very slightly off.
There is a bit of misinformation here. Sync does work with mySB.com but only for music services, such as Pandora, Rhapsody, Napster, etc. That is, services that deliver discrete tracks, one after another, rather than a continuous stream. For radio stations it will not work usefully. It will actually keep them exactly the same time apart :-). This is because each SB connects independently to the stream source, but it turns out not to be at exactly the same time. mySB has no way of working out what the difference in time might be. Sometimes a useful technique can be to keep restarting the station until the two players start up sufficiently in sync. It is also the case that sync can be not quite so tight with mySB but that depends upon many factors. Often it is as good as a local SbS (except for radio). -- awy awy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7480 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68954 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Radio randomly disconnects from router
The music drops out or the wifi signal drops out (as indicated by signal strength indicator on lower right)? I had some loss-of-wifi-signal issues with my Apple Airport Extreme router. It would show 3 bars for a while but would then lose the signal entirely and wouldn't get it back even if I unplugged the radio and moved it right next to the router. I think there is definitely some firmware issues there that need to be cleaned up. The radio should be able to recover much better from a lost-signal type situation. Anyway - There was definitely an underlying signal strength issue in my case. I ended up buying an Airport Express, and enabling WDS (which was amazingly undocumented with the latest hardware - I had to hold down control keys to find hidden menu items. Shame on Apple) and my Radio has been rock-solid ever since... -J -- jay_cee_in_da_house jay_cee_in_da_house's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1830 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=70247 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
[SlimDevices: Radio] Lost Subscription Stream
I updated to Squeezebox Server 7.4.1 yesterday and then updated the firmware on my Squeezebox Radio. The radio appeared to work OK after, but when I tried to return to a radio station after logging into the server, I got a message that there was a problem and that I should reset factory defaults. I did this, and almost everything works fine (except, of course, that I had to redo all of my settings). What doesn't work is that I have a premium subscription to RadioIO, and have the app installed on the radio. Since the update, I am no longer able to access the premium streams. I can find them in the menu, but when I select a station I get the RadioIO tagline on the top of the screen and the RadioIO logo in the center of the screen, but no sound. I tried uninstalling the RadioIO app from mySqueezebox.com and reinstalling with no effect. I removed my RadioIO account, uninstalled the app from mysqueezebox.com, confirmed that it was not present on the radio, and then reinstalled from msb.com and reenabled my account. Nothing I've done has enabled me to access the premium streams again. Does anyone have any ideas? Could this be a bug introduced with 7.4.1?

[SlimDevices: Radio] preset and favorite bugs w/server 7.4.1
Ok, So I have Squeezebox Radio and have setup www.mysqueezebox.com and the Squeezebox Server 7.4.1. The radio itself says its release 7.4.1 r7915. The hardware version is 5. What I find is that when I switch from Internet Radio to podcasts from the server the favorites change and/or are erased. I actually suspect they just change based on whether the radio thinks it's connected to the Internet Radio (and then it uses squeezebox.com to save the favorites) or the SqueezeboxServer (and then it uses those favorites). Also switching between the Internet Radio stations and the podcasts from the server seems to delete all of the Preset button settings. The presets don't switch, they are deleted. How inconvenient. I found an advanced setting on the web interface to the Server for squeezebox.com called mysqueezebox.com Integration. Supposedly this would control synchronization between mysqueezebox.com and the local server. But the settings appear to have no effect on the favorites or presets. So as far as I can tell, the presets and settings are broken if you use both Internet Radio and Squeezebox server. Carl PS: I want to also note that there are just two many control panels for this device: - the front of the actual radio - my squeezebox.com - my squeezebox.com remote control - the squeezebox server control panel - the squeezebox server web advanced settings control panel - the squeezebox server web remote control And determining what should be used to do what? Well, who knows?

In the SF Bay Area, the East Bay commute routes (in any direction) consistently rank near the top of the Worst Commutes lists the newspapers periodically prepare.
