Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Sirius Radio?

2011-06-03 Thread steve781

That's the good news. The bad news is that it will reboot the radio
periodically. Sometimes you can play a Sirius stream for a couple of
hours, other times it will reboot after 20 minutes. The problem has
existed for a while, and is still present in the latest firmware. I'm
not sure why it is not being addressed.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Changing the volume level of the fallback alarm

2011-05-12 Thread steve781

I've heard it mentioned that there is a way to lower the volume level of
the fallback alarm but I can't find the post. 

Currently my alarm volume is set to 20 which is perfect for the
Internet radio streams I want to wake up to. The problem is all too
often the fallback kicks in and its volume level is much louder than
the 20 that the internet streams play at. Is there a way to lower the
fallback level relative to the alarm level? Thanks,

Steve

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Streaming Sirius for 5-20 mins makes the Radio REBOOT

2011-04-14 Thread steve781

Of all the quirks in the SB software, this one is the worst for me. On
both my Radio and Touch I'm unable to play a Sirius stream for much
more than an hour (usually about an hour and ten minutes on my Touch)
before the stream stops and the radio/touch reboots. Based upon the
date on the OP, this has been a long standing problem. Right now I'm on
7.5.2 (due to SBS hangs), but I know the problem also happens at 7.5.3,
I haven't (dared) try 7.5.4 or 7.6 yet.

Does anyone know what the specific issue is? Will Logitech ever fix the
problem? It sure would be nice to play a stream for more than an hour
with incurring a reboot.

Steve

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Radio tower constantly showing

2011-03-31 Thread steve781

It's a mySB.com issue for sure. I gave up a while back and conceded to
having my own server. I bought an eMachine for $350 and use the Server
Power Control add-in to sleep the machine when it doesn't have an
active connection. While it does solve a lot of problems, you really
should be able to count on SB in the Cloud.

Here's one more thing to try to get the artwork. While playing the
stream press Home, Stop (long press pause), select Now Playing, and
then Play. This is only practical if you listen to the same steam for a
long period of time. If you are jumping around it's too much overhead.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Radio tower constantly showing

2011-03-28 Thread steve781

I gave up on mySB.com and now use my own server. I'm not sure what
causes the issue, or why it doesn't happen on all streams, but it
seemed to happen on most of the ones I like. Logitech doesn't seem to
be in a hurry to fix it which added to my motivation.

I'm not sure why rebooting the radio helped. In my case it was pretty
consistent.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Playlist Issue

2011-03-16 Thread steve781

I've run across some very strange behavior with my SB Radio. I created a
playlist using the SB Server Web interface of 12 songs from different
albums. To start the playlist I select it with the wheel, then select
the first song. The album art is displayed as is the play arrow, but
the music does not play.

I've found a work around in using the play button while the playlist
name is selected. This behavior is very differnt from everything else
in the UI. Normally pushing the wheel while displaying a song or radio
station plays that item.

Is this a bug in 7.5.2, or do I just not understand the SqueezeOS UI?
Thanks,

Steve

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Lost Art Work

2011-03-10 Thread steve781

kloach;615032 Wrote: 
 Suddenly my radio doesn't display the artwork for the selected preset
 radio stations, I just get the default radio tower. I tried restoring
 factory settings and installing everything again, didn't help.  I do
 get the artwork when using the squeezebox server but not when using
 squeezbox.com. Any ideas on what I can try. Thanks

I'm new to Squeezebox (12/2010) but this has been a problem for me all
along. I finally gave in and setup a SBS and never looked back. There
is a trick to get the art work but it involves extra key strokes every
time you change the stream. After selecting a stream push Stop, Home,
Now Playing, then Play. It appears to be some kind of timing issue
between the device and mySqueezebox.com. There is a bug logged for it,
if that means anything.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Radio hangs SB Server

2011-02-24 Thread steve781

I downgraded to 7.5.2 and so far the problem is gone. I saw a post over
on the Logitech forums with the same issue and that's what that person
did to resolve it. So apparently there's a bug in 7.5.3 that some users
hit but not others.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Radio hangs SB Server

2011-02-23 Thread steve781

I'm having an issue where my SB Radio (7.5.3 latest) is causing all my
SB servers (Touch and 2 PCs running Win7 x64) to hang. At first I
thought the issue was the TinySB on the Touch, but now I'm having the
same issue with my 2 PCs. Both PCs are wired, and the Radio is wireless
with a 100% signal.

I'll start the SB server and connect the radio (switch library). Within
a few minutes the SB server will start consuming 50% CPU and become
unresponsive to requests. I can restart the server (I actually have to
terminate the process from task manager, or in the case of the Touch,
reboot) but within a few minutes of reconnecting the server will hang.

I've reset the radio to factory defaults and I'll do some more testing
tonight. The radio seems to work fine when connected to
mysqueezebox.com so I don't understand why it is hanging my local
servers. Any thoughts or suggestions?

[SlimDevices: Radio] SB Radio Alarm Questions/Issues

2011-01-18 Thread steve781

I have been using multiple alarms for the last month with pretty good
results. I have alarm 1 set for Mon-Fri 6AM and alarm 2 for Sat/Sun
9AM. I play a stream from Favorites that is a commercial FM station
(KFOG). I'm on the latest firmware and I use mySB as the server.

My problems begin after the alarm is triggered which is a positive. How
should I shut the alarm off? If I use the dial and select turn off
alarm, the alarm will shut off until 6:01 and then it will start
playing the stream again. It seems like turning off the alarm should
disable it until the next day, not the next minute. I've also tried
hitting the power button, but I get the same result. On the other hand,
if I let the alarm play (let's say I like the song), it will shut off at
6:01.

I know it's a nit, but I'm hoping I have configured something wrong and
I can correct this behavior.

[SlimDevices: Radio] AAC Format not found on mySqueezebox.com

2011-01-15 Thread steve781

I have a Squeezebox Duet and Radio. The Duet needs a Squeezebox Server
to play AAC format streams but the Radio plays them natively. When I
search for Internet Radio streams using the SBS it shows all streams,
but when I search MSB it will not display AAC streams even if it is the
Radio doing the search. 

It seems like either all formats should be returned in the search, or,
the search results should vary depending on the capabilities of the
Squeezebox. Right now I have to find the stream using SBS, and
copy/paste the link into Favorites on MSB. Is there any way around
this?
