Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Radio and BBC
It seems to vary - for example, in last two weeks, it was the 9am programmes on Monday and Tuesday. I hadn't checked again until today when I noticed the 10am programme was missing, 10:45 programme available, but then the 11am and 12noon programmes also not listed. Seems the listing is full of omissions. -- castalla 1 Touch - cheap unbranded optical cable - old Sony Microsystem - Aqustics Q10 speakers - 2 duff ears - purrfekt! castalla's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15624 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90989 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Alarm suddenly works wrong
Go to your account on mysqueezebox.com. Click on the Players tab. Choose the name of your Player. Click on the General tab and look toward the bottom of the page to make sure that the correct time zone is set. My guess is that the time zone is probably set for one that is an hour earlier. Just fix that and you will be fine. Or you can do it on the radio itself. Go to Settings scroll down to choose Advanced. Then scroll down to Timezone, and scroll up or down until you can choose the correct one for your location. -- mpower9 mpower9's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33930 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90999 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Alarm and timekeeping behaviour
Here is the basic alarm set up for one person. You can set the alarm to go off at the same time each day or at different times on different days of the week or not at all. The alarms are registered with your mysqueezebox.com website account. You can choose what happens when the alarm goes off depending on how you use your radio. I use mine mainly for listen to streaming radio from the internet using the mysqueezebox.com server. Other people like to listen to their own music collections using the Squeezebox Server on their own computer system. You can choose the source of the alarm sound depending on what you like. I have mine set to Vermont Public Radio, there are also a variety of alarm type sounds available from mysqueesbox.com. You can also set the volume of the alarm sound. When it is time for the alarm to sound, if there is power to the radio the alarm will go off. If your radio has a connection to the server where your choice of sound is, the sound that you have ordered will play. If there is no connection to the server, dreadful Logitech disco music will play. (In the bad old days it would play at full volume and launch you straight out of bed. Users prevailed on the developers to tone it down and now it plays at whatever volume you set for your alarm. There are threads here that tell you how to hack the radio to replace the disco music with a more congenial sound if you find that it goes off to frequently for your taste.) If you purchase the radio battery pack, the "no connection to the server" scenario will play out whether or not you have power at the time of the alarm as long as you had contact with the server at some point in the previous 24 hours so that it tells the radio to set the alarm for that day. To summarize: If you want a bullet proof alarm, buy the radio and the battery pack as well. There have been many complaints over the years about the reliability of the alarm, but my experience as a regular user is that it is now quite reliable in terms of playing some sound to get you out of bed. But whether it is the precise sound you want depends on the reliability of your connection to whichever server you choose for the alarm sound. (Most of the times that my alarm has failed to sound turned out to be the result of user error so be careful when setting it. This is not such a problem if you have a regular schedule, but if you set it each night for a different time the following day sometimes inattention at a late hour leads to mistakes.) I hope this long winded explanation is helpful and does not discourage you from buying the radio. I bought mine as an impulse buy when my 25 year old clock radio started to become unreliable and I have never regretted it. I love it and now have the Touch as well. These gadgets are best used by people who have some patience with tech objects, because there is a learning curve but it is worth it. So many stations so little time! And if you get stuck, the folks on this forum are incredibly helpful. -- mpower9 mpower9's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33930 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90993 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

[SlimDevices: Radio] Alarm and timekeeping behaviour
I'm thinking about getting an SBR. It's primary responsibility would be to get me out of bed in the morning. Audio would be an important but secondary responsibility. I'd like to understand how it manages alarms and time keeping, especially in the advent of a power outage.

A friend has asked me to check this out. With the Touch, it's possible to get the Live and Listen Again features using the BBC app/plugin when connected to mysb.com. There's no need for a local server. Is this the same behaviour using the Logitech Radio?
