That way, you can play any song you want in the order you want. Personally, I love the convenience of Rhapsody. When I'm on vacation or simply out and about, it gives me access to virtually my entire library. The only negative is that the sound quality is not nearly as good as I get with my locally stored, lossless files.

[SlimDevices: Radio] A question about the battery pack ...
I'm considering purchasing the optional battery pack when it becomes available. I probably won't use it very often, as the radio will be sitting on a night stand in my guest bedroom most of the time. It would be nice, however, to take the radio out to the backyard ever once in a while.

As far as addressing your question about which room my players are in, I currently have a Boom in the master bedroom on my nightstand. The other players are in my family room, game room and home theater. The Radio (which should arrive today :)) will be going in the guest bedroom. Assuming I like the Radio as much as I think I will, I'll probably buy a second one for my kitchen. This would be another scenario where adjustable dimming would come in handy.

[SlimDevices: Radio] How do I get the Radio to connect to mysb.com?
I just set up my Radio today and everything went smoothly. After plugging it in and configuring my network settings, the Radio found my local Squeezebox Server and connected to it. I tested it with both local music and with internet based sources such as Rhapsody, and everything worked flawlessly. Next, I turned off my server to see what would happen. I assumed if no server was found, the Radio would automatically ask me for my mysb.com login information and connect to it. Unfortunately, this was not the case. No matter what I did, it kept trying to connect to my local server. I even tried rebooting the Radio, but I still kept getting the same message, "Can't Connect to Library". The only options it gave me were "Try again" and "Switch Library". Obviously, there is something I'm missing.

[SlimDevices: Radio] For those of you thinking about returning your Radio ...
My suggestion is to be patient. Yes, the Radio is quite buggy at the moment. There is no denying it. Nevertheless, I have faith that Logitech will eventually fix all these issues. I remember when the controller first came out. That thing was riddled with bugs. There were times when I wanted to throw it as hard as I could at a brick wall. Fast forward to the present, and the controller has evolved into a pretty rock solid piece of hardware. I am confident that the same thing will ultimately happen with the Radio. -- gweempose 2 Squeezebox Receivers 1 Squeezebox Classic 1 Squeezebox Boom 1 Squeezebox Radio 3 Squeezebox Controllers gweempose's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9579 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69719 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Slim Devices has a great track record when it comes to supporting their products and going out of their way to make their customers happy. For proof, look no further than these forums.

This would give you plenty of bandwidth, and it should work well for you since you are the only one in your area using the 5 Ghz band. I realize it's not as convenient as having a 5 Ghz radio built into the Squeezebox itself, but it's a reasonable kluge given the circumstances. -- gweempose 2 Squeezebox Receivers 1 Squeezebox Classic 1 Squeezebox Boom 1 Squeezebox Radio 3 Squeezebox Controllers 1 iPod touch w/ iPeng gweempose's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9579 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71064 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

[SlimDevices: Radio] Is there any solution to the disappearing preset bug?
I recently got my wife a Radio to use in the bathroom. To make it easier for her, I set the presets to her favorite Sirius channels and one local channel. This morning, my wife came downstairs and wanted to know where all her presets went. A quick search of this forum revealed that this is a known issue that is affecting many users. Has anyone come up with a solution?

[SlimDevices: Radio] How well does the Radio work with just mysqueezebox.com?
A friend of mine was over at my house the other day and really liked my radios. I have three of them, and they all have been pretty much rock solid. That being said, I have a PC with Squeezebox Server running 24/7. I remember when the Radio first came out, there were major bugs when using it exclusively with mysqueezebox.com. Have they worked out all the kinks, or are there still issues?

[SlimDevices: Radio] SB Radio will only work off battery, not A/C ...
I recently purchased a new SB Radio, so I decided to move the battery from one of my older Radios to the new one. Upon doing so, I discovered that the older Radio will not power up without the battery in it. It is dead as a door nail ... absolutely nada. I'm worried that the battery being in there for so long may have somehow have caused this. Is there any reason why I shouldn't use this battery in the new Radio? Also, is there anything I can do to fix the older Radio? 4 Squeezebox Radios 2 Squeezebox Receivers 1 Squeezebox Boom 1 Squeezebox Classic 2 iPads w/ iPeng 2 Samsung Galaxy S5s w/ Squeeze Commander gweempose's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9579 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102532 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

[SlimDevices: Radio] Apps dissapear after connecting to MSB.com ...
I recently purchased a used red SB Radio, and it is acting very strange. When I first turned it on, it indicated that the Radio was registered to a different MSB.com account. I changed it to my account, and everything appeared to to be working. I run LMS 7.8.1 on my local network, and the new Radio easily connected to it. Now here is where it got weird. When I went to try out Rhapsody, the Radio automatically disconnected from LMS and connected to MSB.com. When I switched back to LMS, all of my apps were gone, and even the "My Apps" folder is gone. The only way I have figured out to get them to return is to reboot the Radio. This only temporarily fixes the problem, though, and they once again disappear when the unit connects to MSB.com. I'm very confused. None of my other Radios exhibit this behavior. Once they are connected to LMS, they never connect to MSB.com unless I tell them to. All of the information about my apps and accounts is relayed to them via LMS. Is there something I am missing? Why is the new Radio acting differently than my other Radios? 4 Squeezebox Radios 2 Squeezebox Receivers 1 Squeezebox Boom 1 Squeezebox Classic 2 iPads w/ iPeng 2 Samsung Galaxy S5s w/ Squeeze Commander gweempose's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9579 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102533 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Is there anything else I need to do other than entering my MSB.com information during setup? I assumed this would register it on my account and remove it from the other account. I tried a factory reset, and that didn't seem to help. I also tried restarting LMS to no avail. This is very frustrating. i don't understand why it is forcing a MSB.com connection whenever I use apps such as Rhapsody or Pandora. None of my other Radios do this.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Apps dissapear after connecting to MSB.com ...
Okay, so here's an update. For the time being, the "My Apps" folder has reappeared on the home screen. I seem to be able to access my apps through it without it going to MSB.com. I cannot, however, create shortcust to the apps on the home screen. On my other Radios, I simply highlight the app and then press the "+" key. This would then bring up a menu allowing me to add the app to the home screen. When I press the "+" button on this new Radio, it does nothing. I even tried installing some new apps and then having it create the shortcut for me. The shortcuts are nowhere to be found.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Grace digital
I just purchased a Mondo to replace a Boom in my bathroom. My wife likes to listen to Howard Stern, so it was all about her being able to easily stream SiriusXM while she gets ready in the morning. In my opinion, the Mondo is inferior to the Radio in almost every way. It's larger, uglier, doesn't sound as good, and just seems to have inferior build quality. It also can't be controlled from a phone or computer, and you can't customize the home screen. I kind of hate it. That being said, you plug it in, set it up, and it just plain works. As long as they continue to support it, the Mondo is certainly a viable option for someone looking for a reasonably priced, all-in-one solution for streaming SiriusXM. 4 squeezebox radios 2 squeezebox receivers 1 squeezebox boom 1 squeezebox classic 1 samsung galaxy tab pro w/ squeeze commander 2 samsung galaxy s6s w/ squeeze commander 4 ipads w/ ipeng gweempose's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9579 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104565 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
[SlimDevices: Radio] Is anybody else sticking with Squeezebox solely because of the Radios?
I'll be honest, if it wasn't for the SB Radio, I would have jumped ship and switched to Sonos a long time ago. Unfortunately, Sonos does not offer a comparable product. Everyone in my family has a SB Radio on their nightstand. We love these little boxes and would hate to give them up. I think Sonos is really missing an opportunity by not offering something similar. 4 squeezebox radios 2 squeezebox receivers 1 squeezebox boom 1 squeezebox classic 1 samsung galaxy tab pro w/ squeeze commander 2 samsung galaxy s6s w/ squeeze commander 4 ipads w/ ipeng gweempose's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9579 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106041 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
