In this situation the NP screen shows what has been played before switching the Radio to standby and doesn't show any progress indicator. This morning I made another observation: after switching music from Radio1 to Radio2 using SwitchPlayer plugin I went to the kitchen where Radio2 is placed but it didn't play and the digital clock was shown. Now I changed volume without switching it on(!) and it played the correct track. The screen still showed the clock. It played only for 10 seconds or so before it muted again. Another small twist of the volume knob let it play for another short period and so on. Since usually both Radios are affected and since there's the workaround to switch to MYSB and back after which they are working fine at least for the whole day, I doubt it's the hardware. But it's not impossible of course. I can replace one of them by another Radio that I usually run on battery so it's really off if not used and therefore not involved in this mystery.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Strange connection issues between Radio and LMS
Now it gets even more strange. The issue occurred again last week, but this time only RADIO2 was affected. As usually when the issue occurs the now playing screen doesn't show the currently played track but displays old information and no progress indication. After roughly 10 minutes the audio muted as usual in this situation. But this time I didn't switch to MYSB and back to work around, but simply changed the volume a point or two using the Radio's knob. And the music was back for another 10 or 11 minutes before it muted again. I repeated this game a few times and the music played always for about 10 or 11 minutes before it muted. I cannot see any hint in the log files, but maybe somebody else can? On the Radio, debug logging was enabled for audio.output, applet.NowPlaying and applet.Playback.

Thanks for your effort so far, bpa! The LMS log is shorter because Radio stopped audio output before - either during the 3rd or 4th track.

The audio output of the Radio stopped. As mentioned, the "Now playing" screen doesn't work at all in those situations. After turning the Radio on from stand-by mode and selecting an album to play, it shows correct information only for a second or two and then it displays the information of what has been played before switching the Radio off (to stand-by) and it doesn't display progress although the music is playing for ~10-15 minutes. reinholdk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36070 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107435 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Strange connection issues between Radio and LMS
It happened again this morning and here is the server.log with debug messages for slimproto and the Radio's /var/log/messages file. There are 3 players involved (I modified the mac addresses in the files accordingly): TOUCH1 (wired), RADIO1 (wireless) and RADIO2 (wireless). The LMS server pc that was woken up by a scheduled task at ~05:45 has IP address of 192.168.2.100, the players have *.104, *.105 and *.106. RADIO1 is the one that I've switched on in the morning at ~05:56 and selected a local music album to play (the new Roger Waters album, btw). The music stopped playing either before the 4th track started at ~06:07 or shortly after. I marked some events in the server log (using a # prefix). If I interpret the messages correctly then the server was still sending data to the Radio (which was also shown in LMS WebUi) and even the Radio's messages file seem to indicate that data was received.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Strange connection issues between Radio and LMS
Thanks for the hints. I know that there are many factors influencing WiFi connectivity. Wiring these two Radios temporarily would mean to run cables of ~10 meters over the floor. I'd rather want to avoid this. :) And I don't like to invest in powerlan adapters, since this setup worked over years - yes, I know, the neighborhood could have changed. And to answer your questions: yes I've checked interferences with neighborhood signals and it's still ok-ish and my access points use fixed control channels for 2.4ghz. But what makes me think that it's not a typical WiFi issue are the following points when the problem occurs: - I've checked WiFi signal strength on the Radio and on LMS WebUI and it was at least 60% - I can switch the Radio to MYSB and back to LMS without problems (which obviously involves network operations) and then the issue is gone - the music plays 10-15 minutes without re-buffering before it stops - after I've selected and started the local music, the now playing screen shows correct track and cover information only for a second or two and then it shows no progress indication and track and cover information from before switching it to standby mode - LMS WebUI shows correct track and progress is in sync with the music playing on the Radio reinholdk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36070 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107435 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Strange connection issues between Radio and LMS
It has happened again - with LMS 7.9.1. Still don't think it's a WiFi issue. DHCP server is configured to always provide the same pinned ip addresses for the SB devices and LMS server PC (in fact, for all devices that are regularly in the network). And it usually (always?) happens for both Radios. And switching the Radio to MYSB and back to LMS clears the issue. So the network seems to be ok. Now I have enabled debug logging for slimproto.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Strange connection issues between Radio and LMS
I've got two Radios on WiFi that both have occasional connection issues with LMS on a Win10 PC. Don't know when it started, maybe some time after updating LMS to 7.9.0? The symptoms are: - the local music I've selected to play is playing for maybe 10 or 15 mins and then stops - the now playing screen shows the artist/album/artwork from the previous playlist - the now playing screen doesn't indicate that anything is playing (no progress, no play symbol) There are two workarounds that fix this behavior: - rebooting the Radio, or - switching to MYSB and then back to LMS from the Radio's menu It doesn't seem to be a WiFi/network issue. If the problem occurs, then: - from the Radio's Settings/Advanced/Diagnosis/ServerInformation screen both MYSB and LMS connections are shown as OK for all ports - from the LMS WebUI the correct playlist for the player is shown and it shows progress - WiFi signal is more than 60% Unfortunately I couldn't find any pattern for the occurances. For some days all works fine and then for some days the problem appears. I typically find this problem in the morning after switching the Radio on, but it seems to occur also during the day, even with radio stations (according to family members). Maybe it occurs when the server PC is woken up from energy saving mode? During the night WiFi is switched off and the LMS server PC is sleeping in energy saving mode and the Radio is in standby (displaying the clock). But in the morning when I turn the Radio on, WiFi is already on and the LMS PC is usually up and running (woken up by the Windows scheduler; in cases when the PC is sleeping, the Radio wakes it up promptly). I do it this way since years. BTW, LMS runs as a Windows service and the music is stored on a local drive. Here's the server log. Maybe the "errorNeedsClient" message is relevant here?

For me it seems that you are trying too much things at a time. You said the Radio is connected to the network by cable now. That's fine. So keep it like that until you succeed in connecting it with LMS. But first, try connecting the Radio to mysqueezebox.com from the Radio's menu and try playing some internet radio station.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Radio seems to be getting loose connection of power plug
My 4-5 year old SBRadio seems to be getting a loose connection of the power plug. It happened two or three times during the last weeks that I've heard the Radio playing a sound (as if it has booted up? - not sure) while it should be in standby. It then displays that it's on battery while the power plug is still connected as always. The power diagnosis does also display that it's running on battery. Pulling the plug and re-plugging it doesn't help. Same with another plug of a different radio. After several tries I always managed to connect it again. Today I detected that I need to move the plug a bit to the left and right while re-plugging it. It seems it's getting a loose connection. Anybody else experienced this? This made me a bit nervous today and I immediately ordered another radio (UE) that I'll add to my other radio and touch that I already have as spares - of course after switching it from UE to SB firmware. I don't want to imagine that I need to live without these nice devices. ;) reinholdk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36070 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101160 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] ASUS RT-N66U = Squeezebox Radio
You have to make the files on the router's drive available to other devices in the network. There should be settings of a SMB server on the router's configuration pages that allow to do this. If you've configured this, try to access the files from the device where your Squeezebox server (Logitech Media Server) runs. Then add the network path to the router files in the basic settings tab of your Squeezebox server's Web interface and start a rescan. reinholdk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36070 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96758 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Can two SBRadios sound differently?
Finally I did another comparison, this time both Radios plugged in. Other conditions as before: same firmware, same LMS settings ('smart gain', 'both channels'), side-by-side comparison with positions swapped, sync'd playing, volume level manually set to the same number, both on wifi and both equipped with battery. Again, a freeware SPL meter app - this time, Logitech's UE SPL on iPod touch ;-) - did not measure a difference between the two. But again, I could clearly hear a difference, both when playing syncd at the same time, but also evident when one was muted and switched back on. So my conclusion is that my new Radio with HW revision 7 doesn't sound as good as the older one with revision 4. :-( reinholdk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36070 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96609 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

[SlimDevices: Radio] Can two SBRadios sound differently?
When comparing my old SBRadio with my new one I got the impression that they sound slightly differently. I did a side-by-side comparison, playing them sync'd with both set to the same volume manually. Both run the same firmware version, of course, and both were connected via wifi with my LMS. The old one seems to sound a bit louder and thus more dominant and clearer. If I set both volumes to 60, for example, I have to reduce that of the old one to nearly 50 to get the impression that both are playing at the same volume. I also switched the player positions to make sure that this has no influence. From the Settings menu I found that the hardware revision of the old one is '4' while the new one is '7'. Don't know what Logitech changed, but I wouldn't expect that one could hear a difference between different versions. Is this just my imagination (or my ears) or is this reality, and if it's the latter, why? reinholdk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36070 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96609 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] SB Radio: spontaneous resume after standby (after upgrade to FW 7.5.3-r9283)
Guess I'm experiencing the same problem as the OP. Since two weeks or so I'm trying to find the root cause of occasional wake ups of the PC running Squeezebox server. I only could see that in the Win7 PC's event log an unknown source is causing the wake up always a few seconds after falling asleep. Up to now, I suspected other devices in the network. But the begining of these problems could correlate with upgrading the server and the radio to 7.5.3. But in my case it doesn't happen every day. On some days, the server PC is sleeping as expected and only wakes up after deliberately switching on the radio from standby. But on some days the server PC is waking up every half an hour (the configured time for going into standby mode) without anybody listening to the radio. Unfortunately I couldn't see the radio showing its home screen for a short time as described by the OP.
