Mrs Jamesg should never need to worry about which server the Radio is connected to. That's the whole idea. She can play Internet radio and music services no matter what the Radio is connected to, without even knowing what that is. To play from My Music she has to confirm the switch to the local PC server (if it's running). Better to only prompt to switch when it becomes necessary than to have the Radio jump automatically, which would disrupt the playback of any music stream that might be playing. -- JJZolx Jim JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72722 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

[SlimDevices: Radio] Simple questions not answered in docs / websites
After reading some forum posts, scouring a pile of websites, hunting for SVN servers with client (appliance) code, and even looking at the docs, I still don't know the answers to some very basic questions: * ISTR from the one time I've seen an internet radio appliance used (a Revo Pico, I think -- Reciva-based), the UI for browsing stations involved navigating a shallow hierarchy of categories using a combined knob + button. Is the SB UI for selecting stations the same? Is it easy to search for stations by entering a text search term? Does the text search feature actually work well? * Plugins run on the SBS host -- right? * Apps run on the appliance, and don't depend on SBS -- right? * Is there any common UI provided by all apps? May an app (also) provide a custom UI? Is there a mix of web and appliance UI involved here? Specifically, if I install, for example, the AccuRadio app, do a bunch of new stations show up in the Big Tree of Radio Stations that the appliance lets me choose from? Or do I have to learn a different user interface for each app? * Would it be feasible, technically and legally, for another company or other organisation to set up in competition with mysqueezebox.com? Do Logitech make this easy or difficult? SBS and mysqueezebox.com provide non-identical functionality -- right? * If I want access to a fairly comprehensive set of radio stations (say, similar to the list that Reciva offers), do I have to install a whole bunch of apps? Do I have to jump through lots of web registration hoops to do that? How does this compare to the situation with Reciva-based radio appliances? How much of a pain have you found this to be? * Ogg Vorbis and WMA support does not require SBS -- right? * AAC support requires SBS -- right? * Is flash supported? Is SBS required for this? * Is RealAudio supported? Is SBS required for this? * Roughly what proportion of internet radio stations require AAC, RealAudio or flash? To be honest, this is mostly out of curiosity by now: I suspect that the fact that the Sales FAQ link I found was broken was the last straw for me. Well, that and the fact that the main thing I was looking for to distinguish this from Reciva-based radios was hardware that won't turn into a brick if the company goes out of business or behaves badly / incompetently -- but it seems it doesn't do much better on that score than the Reciva-based radios. ISTM that companies that sell appliances -- especially those based on open-source -- have missed out on a trick by not publishing a short primer for geeks. Geeks do some of your word-of-mouth marketing for you, people, and we really, honestly, don't want to read reams of confused mass-market marketing spam in order to find out pretty much all. Write the answers to the questions above in a text file (it'll occupy oh, maybe a whole side of A4 paper when printed out), title it something suitably scary, and put it on your website. Even just commit at top level of SBS SVN if you can't bear to put it anywhere else.

It connects there at the moment for RadioTime, too, I think, but it hasn't always been that way, and it certainly doesn't -need- to be that way. It's just a bit easier to centralize things I think.

Thanks for your helpful answers. I don't know why you believe that. Perhaps the lack of clear documentation had something to do with it? The odds of a multihundredbillion dollar company vanishing overnight is pretty slim, though. Is that so. I'd suggest you buy a Radio and try it. I just did. But it was a Reciva radio. If you want to be cheap, use an SB emulator like SoftSqueeze or SqueezePlay (though they are both -emulators- and not -exactly- the same as a hardware player, they are good enough to get the gist of things) and even try SBS on a machine.

I use an Access Point to get onto my network. After looking in the diagnostics information, although my devices use DHCP to get an (appropriate) IP address from my router, the SqueezeServer thinks they are at the hard-coded IP address of the wireless Access Point! Ugh. Never had this problem with ANY other networking software. Anyone have an idea of how to fix this??? Or what setting in my Access Point could be causing this?

Companies routinely go out of business. Studies have shown that company size is very weakly correlated with likelihood of going out of business (de Guilmi, C; Gallegati, M.; 2004, Physica A, Vol 334, pp.267-273). Companies routinely exploit lock-in in various ways not to the advantage of customers. The costs to customers may be non-obvious opportunity costs. I have no experience with Reciva, perhaps you can enlighten us with a side by side comparison of Reciva vs SB players? Maybe I'll jump ship based on your keen salesmanship abilities? :) Sorry, buying, not selling. -- dial dial's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35062 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72771 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Am I being naive?
I think fiddly doesn't begin to do justice to this device. I'd describe it as a geek's wet dream and an average consumer's horror show. I wish I'd spent an hour on this forum before buying a SBR. Maybe in a couple of year's this device will be ready for prime time, but for now appears to be a cool toy that can do a lot of different things for a wide range of user needs, for people who who don't mind temperamental technology. Unfortunately it can't do the basics simply and reliably. -- rsaskew rsaskew's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72722 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
