Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Simple setup - Loud burst before fade in
Sorry don't agree, the original poster had the simplest of all worlds: A Radio, an internet connection, MySB.Com. Versions were as what Logitech / MySB presented him with. Somebody in QA should know firmwares / dates. Now if you want to explore different approaches of other posters that's fine, but it ain't the simplest, and it doesn't necessarily have any causal scope related to OP's problem, and his subsequent product return. Whilst latest nightlies might be exciting, they are not what normal customers would use unless really recommended. I doubt Logitech support would generally recommend.

IMO you need to replicate with 7.4.1 but then upgrade to the nightly to see if it fixes the issue. It has been stated elsewhere that 7.4.2 will be released soon and so it is not unreasonable to get the OP to upgrade if that fixes the issue.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Simple setup - Loud burst before fade in
So if you don't like my approach, do it yourself, ask logitech support, create a bugzilla, wait for god whatever. They will ask you the very same questions (which instead of arguing one who still sees the problem and didn't return the radio already could answer) and one step ahead I'm sure there will ask if you can temporarly try 7.4.x if that solves your problem. I wanted to spend my time in helping to reproduce the problem to make a proper bugzilla - was just before reinstalling 7.4.1 - but instead you make me argue here if I should help OP or jmpage (who has a similar environment like mine).

Yes, create a copy of default.map and restart the server (editing .map files always seems to require a restart). That will give you a dropdown list to chose between your customized mapping and the standard. Since this is on the Player>Remote page you can even have different mappings for different players. Note, however, that a custom map file overrides everything, including possible future updates to default.map and remappings done by plugins. If you want to enable these, delete or comment out everything except your own customizations.

The fixed volume function has some more quirks (for example, on my SB1s it seems to apply to the digital output only) so I don't use it anyway. Instead I just disabled the volup/voldown buttons on the IR remote. This way I could still change the volume using the settings menu if I had to, and it gives me two spare buttons, one of which I am now using for mute. This is how my map file looks: Code: # Fixed_Volume.map [common] voldown= muting voldown.repeat = dead volup = dead volup.repeat = dead -- usch usch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33389 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74383 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

It's not super user-friendly, but you can pretty much do that with KidsPlay, following the recipes included with it. The only significant limitation is from Squeezebox Server -- all players use the same Genre selection for Random Mix. So if somebody in the bedroom started a Jazz mix and then somebody in the family room started a Childrens' mix, when the first set of Jazz songs finished, the bedroom would probably start playing kids' music.
