Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Radio refuses to display screensavers
Hi there Unfortunately we had to change the protocol about how SB Radio gets the time and date from the server for 7.5. An SB Radio running 7.5.x cannot get the time from a server running 7.4.x or the other way round. You either need to make sure SB Radio and the server use compatible versions or you could set the time and date by hand. Also screensavers displaying the time will not start when the time isn't set at all to prevent them from displaying a completely wrong date and time.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Radio refuses to display screensavers
Hello Felix, thank you for the clarification. I have installed SB server version 7.4.2 (latest version from yesterday) and firmware 7.4.2-r8401 on the Radio. The problem is not fixed, however. Time/date are still off. Could you give me a clue on how I can verify that the Radio tries to get the time from the server? What message should I be able to find the /var/log/messages? Is this the correct place to look? To set the time/date by hand: you mean by executing 'date' over an SSH connection?

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Can't connect my SB Radio wireless
Out of the box I couldn't connect via WEP - no matter how many times I entered the 128bit password.. So I connected via ethernet (ie RJ45 cable) and it immediately did a firmware upgrade. After that it still wouldn't connect to WEP 128, but once I changed the setting on my wireless router to Automatic rather than Shared - hey presto it worked and I've had no problems since Whether the Firmware upgrade made a difference I don't know - it may just have been that one setting on my router that was the issue? -- stevedresden stevedresden's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36189 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73739 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Radio refuses to display screensavers
Hi Lieven When you say 'time is still off' do you mean just by some hours (like a timezone issue) or not set at all (i.e. somewhere at 01/01/1970)? I don't think there is a message in /var/log/messages regarding getting time from the server. At least I don't see one in my log. Does the time get set when you connect to mysb.com? I just factory reset my SB Radio and after setting it up again the time gets set ok from mysb.com. And yes, you could use 'date' to set date and time by hand over ssh.

MSB = MySqueezeBox, SBS = SqueezeBoxServer, however, running a later version of SBS will update your firmware and therefore increase your performance on MSB.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Want to make an applet or screen saver ?
Are there any people out there with an Radio that's thinking it would be nice to customize it a bit ? Want to make your first applet but don't know where to start ? Are you good at graphical design/drawing but know nothing about programming and like to contribute ? I'm personally really bad at graphical design and would appreciate help from someone with graphical skills to make that really cool applet/screen saver/visualizer. Have you never done any development and don't plan to start but have this really great idea for a screen saver you would like to see on the Radio ? Or maybe how you would like the Now Playing screen or some other screen to be changed ? Share your idea and let someone else do the development. If there are some interest I was thinking it might be possible to give people some pointers and introductions where to start. I don't want to spend time doing it in case there aren't any serious interest but since Logitech now has changed the licensing for Squeezeplay it's a bit easier. It's now possible to copy and customize any applet more or less exactly as you like. So, anyone interested or anyone has some ideas ?

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] SB Radio on MSB? Everything okay these days?
To clarify; I do not, and will not, have a SBS. I run my current SqueezeBox Boom entirely on MSB - I have never even installed SBS and would have no media content for it either. I use my SB entirely for online radio and Napster service... Therefore I have no concern with SBS. However, I have read many comments on here regarding some issues with Radio's connecting to MSB (In addition to other issues). My question concerns whether these issues have been resolved. Therefore, I am wondering whether the SB Radio is now working correctly with MSB as intended, fixing the issues previous encountered by the early adopters and those at Christmas? EDIT: I apologise if it appears I am asking the same question again, it is simply that I believe my original question may not have clearly represented what I was requested...

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] SB Radio on MSB? Everything okay these days?
- I couldn't read complains about an unreliable MySB.com in the last two weeks. This was after Logitech announced to route all UK users to their american server. I'm not using MySB.com so I can just judge by the 'noise' of the forum - alarm reliability has been much improved in the (still Beta) 7.4.2 firmware version. This one is currently considered Release Candidate so it won't take long until it is pushed to MySB.com users. - some users had problems with their presets (not working in the morning due to disconnection to MySB.com). According to the bug-report this has been fixed too in 7.4.2. So if you wan't to be on the very safe side just wait about I'd say two weeks until 7.4.2 is ready. -- bluegaspode 1x SB-Controller+Receiver (Duet), 1xSB-Boom. 1xSB-Radio Server (7.4.1) running on SheevaPlug (Ubuntu) with attached Western Digital MyBook Essential.
