Maybe I'm missing something in your example, but pressing the power button on the SB Radio doesn't necessarily start playing music. At least it doesn't for me. Have you tried it (sometime when it wouldn't wake someone)? If it does start music playing then you can change that via some settings, the specifics of which I don't recall right now. I often encounter the two examples you give. I just turn on the Radio, go to the Alarm settings (I know where the Alarm button is by feel now, but you could also go through the Settings > Alarm menus), and either check the alarm time, change the alarm time, or disable the alarm for the relevant day. -- aubuti aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72924 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Thanks for the comments bpa. 1. I'm sure when I tried to use the live streams on BBCiPlayer it didn't play - perhaps the SB Radio can't play the format and the LinkStation NAS with 7.3.3 can't decode it either. Or maybe it was a problem with my broadband connection (my ISP has just implemented traffic shaping in a sledgehammer manner). 2. Yes I wondered about that, but unfortunately the BBC App doesn't show up under my Plugins settings, possibly because it's 7.3.3 not 7.4.x? Is there a Logitech repository URL I can use (like I did to see your BBCiPlayerExtra app) or will I have to wait for 7.4? (7.4 is not currently available on LS stock firmware - see various discussions on 3rd Party Hardware forum) I heard on the news today that BBC have announced some iPlayer "net TV" standardisation (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8426104.stm) so maybe this will trickle down to radio content too. I suppose what I'd expect from the BBC is a definitive list of format(s) and the same content on all of them. That said I assume this is a learning period for them too to try and work out what formats become most common etc. It's great that there are knowledgable people on the forums to fill in the gaps for us! -- Simon300 Simon300's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=30835 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71706 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Squeezebox Server on QNAP
Curiouser and curiouser If I go through Settings>Advanced>Networking>Remote Libraries on the SB Radio and manually enter the IP addres sof my SB server, the radio says it can't connect to the server. However, I *can* use the web interface on my PC to view the radio as one of my available players. Stranger still, if I then select some music through the web UI and hit play, sure enough the radio fires up and plays the song, even though it is telling me it can't connect to the server and I can't see anthing through the My Music library because oit can't connect.

Yes, I have Twonky running also, and it works fine. Your SSOTS should default to port 9099, and your Squeezebox Server installation should default to port 9001 when it diagnoses that Twonky is running on 9000. This is how it is supposed to work.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Headphone Volume Too Low
Hello All: New owner here of the Squeezebox Radio and first time post. I really love the product so far, except for one nit. The volume that comes out of the headphone jack is very, very low and requires alot of adjustments. I planned on using my Sennheiser RS-130 wireless headphones with the radio and was not pleased with the low volume coming through the headphone jack. I had to play around with raising the volume high on the radio and then adjust the wireless headphone volume as well to get a "decent" sound. I searched the forum here and see other posts about amplified speakers being used through the headphone jack etc., but wanted to ask if there is any adjustments, plug-ins, software updates or work arounds for the low volume coming through the headphone jack?

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Headphone Volume Too Low
Sounds like the usual "more than one volume in the chain" problem. If you're using something with its own volume control, you should set the radio to full volume, and use that device's volume control. Why? Supposed you set the Radio to 50% volume... now you have capped the max volume of the other device... Since I like the water hose analogy... The city provides water on a nice 1" pipe. You decide you want a shutoff valve in the middle to adjust the flow, and you set it to 50% open. Now, when you take a shower, the faucet in the shower, turned up all the way, gives you less flow. But if you go back and open your valve 100% of the way, your shower faucet now has more pressure, and at half-open, it is able to provide the same flow as before when the new valve was 50% open... and at 100% open, it's got much better pressure. -- snarlydwarf snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72948 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Thanks for the replies so far. Basicaly my radio can't see the server, so the switch library function doesn't work as the radio doesn't see any libraries. The oddity is that the server knows the radio is trying to connect and I can make the radio play music by cueing it up through the web UI. I have no idea whether this is a hardware or software issue.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Significantly more stable alarm applet
Ok, I've spent all too much time over the past few days analyzing, testing, and debugging the AlarmSnooze applet. I now have a significantly more stable applet that I'm running on a Radio with firmware version 7.4.1-r7915. I originally started with Ben's baseline version of AlarmSnoozeApplet.lua which was checked into SVN last Friday the 18th and made my modifications from there... There are still some minor problems remaining (most of which are systemic in nature and cannot, in my view, be fixed in a vacuum in the applet), but the core backup alarm functionality is much more deterministic now. I won't go into all the gory details unless people are interested (Ben??? :) ), but suffice it to say that it took many hours to understand the underlying system behavior because of the interaction between many separate layers of functionality in the context of alarms. This modified applet is also heavily instrumented, so the events that contribute to any alarm malfunctions will be clear and available in the system log for post-mortem analysis. The specific remaining problems that I'm cognizant of are as follows: 1) When a new alarm notification is sent by the server (web interface) while an existing alarm is actually playing out at the radio (including during local snooze) then the new alarm will not have a local backup timer associated with it 2) The backup alarm audio gain (volume) is fixed, and not configurable, as is the snooze time (9 minutes). Both of these characteristics are still as they were in the previous version of the applet. 3) The backup alarm audio gain (volume) is sometimes moved during server reconnection events (when network conditions are dicey) The benefits, as seen in my testing: If you set a one shot or repeating alarm now, or even multiple one shot alarms (as long as you don't set any while the Radio is actually in the middle of having had one go off) I expect you'll be much better protected when/if your server connection goes away. The backup timer protection for the next upcoming alarm (though not necessarily those coming after it) has been greatly enhanced. Also greatly enhanced is the likelihood that the backup on-board alarm audio will actually play when the backup timer fires off. The Squeezebox development team will still be needed to help clean up the remaining issues (presuming they are interested in starting with my modified applet to begin with, that is). The remaining issues appear to be systemic, as I mentioned, and relate to flow control between different entities in the system (server, SqueezeOS, and applet communication). I have worked around some of the systemic problems by making changes in the applet, but there's only so much that can be done exclusively in AlarmSnooze itself... To the Logitech team there: I still need information on licensing and distribution constraints to determine if it's ok to distribute this modified applet for testing by those who want to give it a try. Do you guys want to have a look at it in advance to examine and possibly run through a QA ringer? I'm also willing to talk about the specific issues that remain if you guys are interested... I believe I now have a firm understanding of what the remaining problems are and can share suggestions toward resolving them (not to be presumptuous). If and when Logitech approves the distribution of this modified applet for a group of interested Radio users to test, testers must understand that I have only been debugging this applet for 3 days now (albeit probably 30 hours in total by now). I've also only tested it in my environment, so it has had nothing near a real good shakeout yet. The optimal scenario would be that the Logitech guys have at it first, as I think it will provide them a good foundation for resolving the balance of alarm issues remaining. Ben, Michael, et al... Please advise how you'd like to proceed...
