You mean the backlight? It's only a problem when the room is dark and
the display bright, right? If so, the solution is to lower the
brightness of the display. It's under Settings in the Radio's menu.

Yes i mean the backlight

I'm surprised because I have not seen this phenomenon the first day ...

The problem is especially visible at night but also visible in daylight
...

Accustomed logitech product, I am disappointed with the LCD which is
not good

The display on the Radio is fine. You simply need to set it to automatic
brightness control (which is the default setting) and adjust the minimum
brightness to your liking. The Radio has a light sensor and will adjust
the LCD brightness according to the ambient light. The default minimum
brightness setting might be a bit too bright at night.

Have you adjusted the Brightness settings to be very low output when the
light sensor kicks in?
Radio  Settings  Brightness, set to AUTO and set Minimum Brightness

[SlimDevices: Radio] For how long does Logitech guarantee to maintain mysqueezebox.com

It would be interesting to know because, if they ever shut it down, our
SBRs will apparently be virtually useless.
Please tell me I'm mistaken.

That's actually a very good question.  I'd like to know the answer to
this as well.  Perhaps a third party would write some kind of

SB players can work until the player breaks. Mysb.com not needed. You
will always be able to play your own music, Internet radio where you
can enter the URL (ie most of them) and any services where someone
provides a 3rd party plugin (eg spotify).

LMS on your computer will work even if Logitech ceases to exist. It
doesn't require a connection to mysb.com for many of its functions.

For the how long question: not at all  they can shut it down tonight. 
But that is equally true of Sonos and its software for access to things

Ok, I guess this is where I need educating.  What is LMS and how does
it work (i.e. is it easy to use)?  

Also, I'm guessing if the squeezebox server went down, I could not just
up and take the radio on vacation and expect to pull all my saved
stations, even with LMS, right?

Thanks so much for your help!

LMS is Logitech Media Server. It's software that runs on your computer
or NAS (network attached storage) for serving audio to Squeezeboxes.
The biggest difference from mysb.com is that LMS allows you to play
your own music, provided it is on a hard disk available somewhere on
your home network. It also allows you to listen to internet radio
without mysb.com.

And yes, if you take the Radio and go on vacation, but leave the
computer with LMS behind, you won't have access to the stations you
saved on LMS. (Actually you may be able to connect to the LMS computer
remotely over the internet, but that topic is a little too advanced for
this discussion.)

Thanks again.  That's pretty much what I thought.  And, if mysb.com
goes down for good, it's nice to know there's a solution for local
listening.  

Plus, I like this forum because everyone KNOWS solutions would be posed
if/when I forget, should this happen.
