Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Setting up an Additional Radio
The first thing I'd do with a used Radio is a factory reset: https://support.logitech.com/en_us/article/13945 Next, I'd reapply the latest firmware.

Then, you can get Radio firmware here: http://update-origin.slimdevices.com/update/firmware/7.9.2/baby_7.7.3_r16676.bin Download it to your Squeezebox "\server\firmware" folder and reboot everything. Radio should detect new firmware or you can manually update it via menus. Once everything is confirmed to work as expected, you can apply applets if you want. There is no "easy" way to copy settings from one Radio to another. It's possible I'd guess if you SSH into the first Radio, copy the right configuration files, and apply them via SSH to the second unit, but I'd not call this easy and I don't know what files to copy.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Shifting volume balance on sync'd Radio pair
I have two Radios in my living room that are sync'd (volume also) as a L/R pair. They are wired to my router. Often I notice that the soundfield seems to drift between them, as if one suddenly is of a lower volume than the other. After a few seconds/minutes, it self-corrects. Sometimes this shift seems to impart a different tonal character/equalization. When this happens, if I restart the track things go back to normal but this seems to have no bearing on whether the phenomenon happens again. This is a casual listening area so it's not particularly bothersome; I'm just curious about what would cause this behavior. Any ideas are welcome, thanks. P.S. I live in an urban area with many neighboring wireless networks, but my Radios are wired so I'd think that wouldn't be a factor. Could I be wrong about that?

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] use squeezebox as a speaker for my pc with wlan?
If you haven't already done so, you need to: 1. Install Logitech Media Server (LMS) on your PC 2. Point LMS at your existing music library folder and let it scan the contents 3. Turn on any of your Squeezebox players and select My Music (or Internet Radio or whatever). If you want to have music playing on your PC in sync with your Squeezeboxes, then install SqueezePlay on the PC and setup a sync group. All installers can be found here: http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.7 If you want your Squeezebox players to play back something else from your PC, you may have success with the WaveInput plugin. Yes, there are wireless cable solutions that operate over the wireless phone frequencies (Aperion Audio makes one), but what is the point when Squeezebox already was designed for this?

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Does anyone know if the Squeezebox WiFi radio can be used with 802.11n ?
You probably won't need to change anything to have your Radio work. My N router came out of the box set for compatibility with both N and G devices like Squeezebox. If not, it's an easy setting to adjust in the router management console. -- Apesbrain Apesbrain's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=738 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91461 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Squeezebox Radio Turns itself on

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Default Album Art image
The default image is probably hard-coded in the Radio software and not particularly easy for a novice (like you and me) to change. If your Radio is stuck on the wrong artwork you can unplug it from the wall, wait a minute, and plug it back in to reboot it. That's what I've done when this happens and it typically clears the situation. Alternatively, just press and hold the Power button until the Radio restarts. After you reboot make sure you are running the latest firmware: Home Settings Advanced Software Update. -- Apesbrain Apesbrain's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=738 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83508 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
[SlimDevices: Radio] Sometimes it just plain works...
After tracking delivery of my new White Radio and accessory pack from Logitech all day yesterday, it finally arrived and it is so cute! I took it out of the box, plugged in the battery and it started right up. It took seconds to get on my network and download a firmware update. After a reboot it prompted me to login to mysqueezebox.com and my favorites were there. Have been listening to My Music, Rhapsody and local radio ever since with total joy. The freedom of battery power completely changes the device, IMHO. Thank you Logitech for a great product and a great offer!

[SlimDevices: Radio] How to change behavior of power button?
Is there a way to change what pushing the power button does _when_on_MySB.com_? Currently it refreshes the display to show the logo of the last radio station but it does not start playing unless I push the play button or press one of the presets. I'd like it to start playing the last station again when power is pushed.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Radio WIFI range is worse than Boom
I don't mean to pile on, but my Radio reception is about the same as OP. In the same room as the router (802.11g/WEP 128) it works fine. If I move it a few rooms over, it won't connect. In the same spot my wireless laptop has no problem. I am running the current firmware. There's nothing remarkable in the Diagnostics screen except that the Battery Temperature reports over 2047'C! Can you tell me what values you are interested in?

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] How to Switch from SBS to MySB?
Ideally this source switching would be done automatically and transparently in the background. This distinction between MySB and SBS is unnecessary and holds back adoption of the device by non-tech users, e.g. my SO. Logic should be built into the Radio (and other SB devices) that says if what I request to play is available on the internet, get it there; if it requires the server, start it up and connect; if it doesn't require the server, let it shut down. Fortunately, I subscribe to Rhapsody which means I can pretty much just leave the Radio attached to MySB and play anything. Unfortunately, many of the things I play are already on my server in a higher quality format. -- Apesbrain Apesbrain's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=738 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71481 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

[SlimDevices: Radio] How to Switch from SBS to MySB?
If I've just listened to my local server and now have switched to Rhapsody, does the Radio know the server is no longer needed and let it shut down? Or, how do I manually switch Radio source from server to network?

[SlimDevices: Radio] Does Radio Support WOL to Server?
Configured my new Radio today for MySqueezebox, but I'm not sure how to get it to switch over to my local server. When I select My Music from the home menu it gives me a message about downloading and installing SBS. There doesn't seem to be any way to get past this message. The server PC is in standby and I'm used to my SB3 sending a WOL packet when I turn it on. I haven't figured out how to get the Radio to do the same thing. Is the Radio not capable of waking up the server? -- Apesbrain Apesbrain's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=738 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71452 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
