Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Logitech don't care about us ! Class Action
I haven't commented here for a long time, but the situation is fairly obvious. Logitech resource commitment to releasing and fixing products is not there. This has been the case for over a year now. Raising support issues is about as much use as raising Bugzilla issues. The commitment to the product line falls way short of requirements for an effective consumer product. It is good that so many people continue to populate this set of forums with issues, answers etc., but it belies the real issue, the product owners (not developers don't care ). Individuals need to make up their own mind about investment in products. I have made my choice. People that have a problem with the product, if in the UK, return under sale of goods act. The product isn't going to be fixed. Slim Devices was great - but the entrepreneurial spirit (still expressed by the few remaining developers, and by the stalwart contributors here) is in the past. Logitech have demonstrated by action their position. You choose your response, but don't moan, that is the way it is.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Simple setup - Loud burst before fade in
Sorry but your test case is nowhere near Jork, you said SB server - he was MySB.com only you said latest nightly - he was on whatever MySB assumed as latest firmware. Simple comparisons do require identical circumstances. The debates in the developers forum are frightening, we are now on maintenance release only, when it is obvious that the multiple conditions that can occur between server (two choices), network ability (local and worldwide) and the Squeeze OS have not completed a worst case system design. It is only an alarm clock ( just remove all but rtc based alarms for now, and get the alarm to chase a source of noise that is available (playlist, radio, local squeek, then check it remains streaming) Currently the approaches are about boiling the ocean! A snooze by the way at its simplest is alarm stopped new alarm set for now + snooze time with same playlist action. Apologies for rant but simplify then grow please for the customers sakes.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] MY Alarm Issue, HELP!
With all due respect, in a device with a relatively sophisticated processor and an OS, it should be simple to ensure whatever external happenings or not, an alarm sounds at the due time. They days of Slim Devices are over with the new Squeeze OS. So reliance on server events either owner's server or centralised MySB.com should be removed wherever possible for fundamental functions such as this. It is not as if there are any steadfast rules to really follow. The Classic and Duet had no alarm function that was intended as a reliable alarm. The Boom came with internal clock, and backup alarm.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Limited settings for Radio under Squeezebox Server?
I thought the issue was thin devices, SB3 Boom, Duet v the fatter Touch and Radio that have significantly more local processor and decision capability. Therefore all the apps that ran in the SB3 world that micro-manipulated the display, can't in the new world, unless they are local LUA applets.
