Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Connecting radio to android phone
I took a closer look at the back of the radio and noticed the audio jack was a line in instead of a headphone jack. That would certainly work, I was just hoping for a more graceful solution using the phones hotspot. realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96052 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] SqueezeBox Radio - Dented box $119.99
You guys are right, that one link did mention a remote, I just didn't see it. Anyway, the radios arrived today and I have no idea why there were advertised as "dented box". Both radios were brand spanking new. The boxes were not dented and the the round plastic sticker that seals the box was still sealed. Inside, both radios were in mint condition. The plastic wrap and all packaging was unopened. I saw no difference between these radios and the other new ones I'd bought. I think I got a very good deal and am very pleased. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86544 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Can I save 'my music' (random) as a Pre-Set
Steve, I'm running the WHS version of the SBS so I'm no sure if you are seeing the same thing I am. Is there a link in your settings that says Web Interface - Advanced Settings"? If so, click that and it will launch your web browser to a page that will let you modify settings via a web interface. Then, click in the upper left hand corner of that page where it says "Squeezebox Server" and it will load the web UI we are referring to. Let us know what you find. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86597 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Some advice please
I feel your pain, I was experiencing connectivity problems for a while after upgrading my routers firmware. I would suggest trying everything mentioned so far and, if that all fails, get a cheap $20 router and try that. I've discovered that not all manufactures are always 100% compatible with all devices. My Sony PS3 refuses to connect to my Belkin N+ router so I finally had to get a wireless game adapter to get it online. Good luck and let us know the outcome please. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86388 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] SB radio drops synch and stops playing

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] SB radio drops synch and stops playing
I think I've figured it out. My router is a Belkin N+ (F5D8235-4 v1000) and last week I upgraded the firmware from 1.01.26 to 1.01.28. The reason I upgraded is the router only shows clients connected via LAN and doesn't show clients connected via WLAN. I thought the new firmware might fix this but it didn't. After remembering I'd upgraded the firmware, I pulled out my Hawking wireless extender I bought to provide better reception in the garage. I stopped using it because any change made to the router and I had to run the setup on the device all over again, it was just a pain. I setup the extender and connected the two radios to it. They both have been playing rock solid for over an hour now without dropping. It's odd how the firmware change on the router would affect only these devices. It's late now, but tomorrow I'll upgrade back to SBS 7.5.3 and hopefully the radios will play all night like they have been for the last hour+. I'll post back with the results, but I feel fairly confident the router is the issue. I'll know more tomorrow night. Thanks for all the suggestions and help offered thus far. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86122 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] SB radio drops synch and stops playing
Thanks Gary. I rolled the server back to 7.5.2 tonight before I read your post and thought that fixed it as I finally got half an hour of solid music without having one of the radios drop. But, just as I thought it was fixed, one of the radios stopped playing *sigh*. I rolled back to 7.5.1 the same thing. My touch and boom are connected via wifi like the radios, but they never experience the problem. I had the first radio setup using a static IP before I restored the router to factory defaults. I think next test is to use the RJ45 port on one of the radios and if the issue goes away I'll try another router. I'm just at a complete lost right now not knowing if the problem is software or hardware. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86122 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] SB radio drops synch and stops playing
The new radio arrived today. Just plugged it in and set it up on the network. Synched it with my other radio, touch and boom. On the SECOND song, the new radio stopped playing music but remained connected to the network. It almost has to have something to do with the radio firmware because the two radios have the same problem.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] SB radio drops synch and stops playing
I'm not running any processor intense plugins. As a matter of fact, shortly before I bought the slim devices I replaced the system hard drive in my media smart server and it screams now. My CPU utilization is usually around 10-13% when I'm accessing the SB library. I am running My Movies 4 pre-release which uses SQL, but since I recently rebuilt the server I haven't had a chance to reload all my titles so the library has less than 50 titles. Tonight, I uninstalled the SqueezeBox Server add-in and re-installed it hoping for the best, but that didn't do any good. It will be interesting to see how the new radio that will be here tomorrow behaves. I'll post back once I know something. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86122 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] SB radio drops synch and stops playing
I thought you had solved my problem usch when you mentioned the behavior occurs after a scan of your music library. A few days ago I enabled the "Auto Rescan" third party plug-in so I thought that perhaps it was kicking off and causing the radio to drop. However, I disabled the plug-in and the problem still exists. I ordered a red SB radio from Amazon last night that will be here tomorrow to see if suffers the same problem. I'd like to know if it's the radio itself, or something with my network/server setup. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86122 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

[SlimDevices: Radio] SB radio drops synch and stops playing
I have a SB Touch, Boom and Radio. All 3 are only a few months old. I always play all three synched together connected to a local Squeezebox server running on a HP EX485 home server. Recently, the radio will drop from the synch stream and just stop playing. It is still connected to the network because I can use SqueezePad to turn it off and back on. When it comes back on it rejoins the synch stream and starts playing again. However, this happens every 3 or 4th song and it is really getting annoying. I've reset the radio to factory default settings and then installed the update but the problem persists. I've verified I don't have an IP conflict but am running out of ideas.
