[SlimDevices: Radio] on poweron resume last station

2011-01-06 Thread Symbiot

Hi

Is it possible for the SBradio to start @ the last station it's been
playing..

So like a normal radio.. I turn it on, and it starts playing.. without
me having to click on 'now playing' and 'Play' to start the last
station I listened to?

I am not one of the experts on these forums. As an idea though, perhaps
since you are in a small apartment, you may be experiencing
interferences with other neighbor's wireless settings. Maybe by
changing your routers settings (channels) could help you or moving your
router's location away from potential interferences.
Just a thought. Good luck.

netstumbler or similar programs to survey the surroundings.

There is an ever better app that also list non wifi things in the same
ranges.
Can not find it right now.

I'm gradually moving to wired as I have 14 neighbors with wifi. 2006 it
was 2 .

So you don't have to do something to get it this way, wifi is simply so
many factors outside ones control .

But I have to stress the piont that squeeboxes relies on your networks
performance and also your skills with said network.

The competition Sons do away with much off it by having their own
networking , but it cost you . And this only twarts setup fubar from
end users outside disturbance would kill the sonos system too.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] zune

2011-01-06 Thread Mod74

I too would love to see some sort of Zune Pass integration. Currently
I'm using the wavinput plug-in to capture and stream, but it's not
super ideal as you need to initiate playback from the PC and you don't
get songnames/coverart.

As far as I can tell the server needs to be able to read the licences.
At the moment only WMP, WMC or the actual Zune software will open the
files.

2011-01-06 Thread virgiliomi

Is there a reason that you're hard-powering off the radio, rather than
letting it display the clock (soft-power off/leaving it in standby)?

I believe there's an option in SB Server that can have it auto-resume
when powered on, but I believe that only holds for soft-power on/resume
from standby...

With Squeezebox the DRM secret handshakes occur in the player
firmware. That's because the server software is open source, but the
player firmware is closed. Rhapsody, Napster (and Microsoft and Apple,
if it ever came to pass) don't want the secret code out in the open.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Expecting too much?

2011-01-06 Thread jk12

I think I might have discovered what could be causing the radios to sync
but not have sound outputting on some radios. I will control playback
via the radios but also via various android and iOS apps (squeeze
commander, squeezedroid, ipeng, squeezepad).

It seems anytime I use a mobile app or the SB web interface to control
playback I instantly have issues with one or more of the radios. I've
also noticed the app (like squeeze commander v0.9.5.1) says playing
when music is indeed playing, but the playback status icon shows play
instead of pause.

This probably sounds like a bunch of babble, but maybe this will help
someone else having issues with radios not playing sound. It's possible
controllers could be causing the issue. I don't seem to have any issues
when controlling playback via one of the radio's controls. 

PS: I did a wifi analysis some time ago and am on the least congested
channel.

Ahh I see.

From trying XBMC and Muso just now they won't play the Zune files
either, so it kinda looks like I'm (we are) stuck with one of the MS
players and the wavin plug-in for now. Realistically I should just be
grateful I've got that option thanks to bpa et al.

Would be awesome if the Squeeze developers would be able to include the
secret handshake in the firmware, but MS being MS and record companies
being record companies it seems unlikely.

I hope it does appear as an app!  The audio is much better on the app
than it is on radiotime.  I listen to Cities 97 and the audio sounds
tinny, like an internet stream.  The audio on iheartradio sounds
fuller, much like Pandora or Slacker.

[SlimDevices: Radio] BBC On Demand Not Working

BBC on demand abruptly stopped working on Squeezebox Radio using BBC
IPlayer Applet. Error message states: connection reset by remote host
spdr://bbcmsparser?url=a...etc. It has been working without problems
for a year. I REALLY like BBC on Demand and am going through

 While I don't like Apple at all, I fail to imagine they will be
 incapable of fixing this bug in more than a year. 
 
As said previously, it's all about priorities, as long as everyone with
the problem doesn't call Logitech support and complain about it, it's
more important for them to fix the problems which people do call the
support and complain about. 

I do realize that it shouldn't be very hard for Logitech to look in the
community forum and even their own forum to realize that they have a
problem, but apparently they have chosen to more or less ignore the
forums so far. I'm pretty sure it helps if everyone with the problem
call support. The reason is that it do take up their time and the
problem gets more visible to management since it means they have to
increase the support staff to be able to handle all the support calls.
Increasing the support staff means increasing the support costs and
this gets visible to management and makes them prioritize doing
something to solve the problem.

So even if the support staff isn't going to be able to help individual
users, it's going to help if a lot of users call them. I know it's
frustrating and I know it really shouldn't be needed but the history
clearly shows that just complaining in the community forum and their
standard forum doesn't help.

I think we need to realize that Logitech doesn't work the same way as
Slim Devices. Slim Devices was all about interacting with the community
to figure out what's most important while Logitech clearly just
understand the economics. It's hard for them to prove that they would
sell a lot more Radio's with a reliable alarm, so I think we need to
focus on increasing the costs for them if they keep ignore it. The best
(only?) way to do that and make it visible is to ensure their support
costs are increased by taking up the time of their support staff.

Logitech has very competent engineers, so it's not a matter of being
incapable of fixing it, it's a matter of not prioritizing fixing it. If
they prioritized to fix it they would have done it by now.

I wonder if it's soon time for someone in the community to start
implementing a third party Reliable Server Independent Alarm
applet...
The question is just if the people with problems would be satisfied
with a third party solution ?

To get it reliable it would have to be limited to the music that's
available locally on the Radio, completely server independent. So maybe
making it possible to upload a short MP3 with the alarm signal you want
to the Radio and use that always when triggering the alarm. There isn't
much disk space left on the persistent storage on the Radio, so it's
going to be limited but making it possible to choose your own sound
instead of the standard fallback alarm sound might be an improvement.
When you are awake it can offer you the option to switch to playing
music the normal way.

think we would all love a recommended duct tape solution from Logitech,
a duct tape solution is preferred over not having any recommended
solution at all. 

As far as I know, Logitech has not recommended that running a local
server solves the problem, they haven't even admitted that they do have
a problem after the initial bug fixing which you and Marc was involved
in.

As already mentioned, we do have a community recommended duct tape
solution, use a local reliable server. It would just be nice if
Logitech sometimes showed that they care about their customers in
similar way which the community members on this forum does.
