Are you sure onlyconnect have a real UE Radio? If yes, that would mean
that msb.com and UESR.com are closely linked.


They are not. They're totally independent.

My guess is that the clever Squeezebox hackers are playing games with
the UE product.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Silent UE radio

2012-09-25 Thread bpa

Time passing can often "fix" some situations especially with networked
systems.

Most common is when data is cached.  Often network program cache data
for x minutes rather than refetch from the network to save time (e.g.
LMS does this for many URLs).  If network data changes then program will
use cached data but it is invalid and so functionality is broken.

Another instance used to be DNS.  If a DNS entry is changed - it can
take time to propagate across the net to secondary DNS server and so
after a DNS change for a while some user may pick up "out of date" IP
address until their local DNS server get the new update.

You can get date-related bugs. For example, I have seen bugs that do not
show for the first 12 days of the month. This is because mm/dd/yy and
dd/mm/yy are both valid until the 13th day :-)

I tend to agree on time passing rarely helping. But one anecdote. A
couple of years ago, out of the blue one of my BOOMs lost connection to
everything, and when reconnected to network (via ethernet) it simply
couldn't talk to my local LMS server or mysb.com. I tried factory
resets, xlinx resets, etc. For about a day I tried everything.  In the
end, I left it plugged in, went away for the weekend, and on my return
it worked perfectly. That was about 2 years ago, and it's been in daily
use since that time with no issues. Odd I agree.

I agree about reboots but that was tried. IME time passing rarely fixes
anything other than overheating, not the culprit in this case. But I am
sure there is a simple explanation.

Thanks for the answer... I thought UE radio was not yet available. But I
now see they are shipping it.

I'm not sure all mysqueezebox.com locations were down at the same time. 
Possible that he was on one server (that was up) and you were on one
that was down.  Anyhow, these things are "computers" so sometimes there
are hiccups and a reboot or time passing can cure all sorts of ills.

which could be a good sign for keeping mysbox.com alive for a longer
period (i.e., the two are closely connected)

I am not sure about this for a couple of reasons.

How long was mysqueezebox down for?

Server info shows and has always shown uesmartradio.com

The support engineer was able to play his UE radio successfully even
when mine was not working.

That's probably what happened.
Are you sure onlyconnect have a real UE Radio? If yes, that would mean
that msb.com and UESR.com are closely linked.

I wonder if this is related to the fact that mysqueezebox.com was down
for maintenance until sometime early today.  Anything that required
mysb.com wouldn't play for me late last night.  All is working now as
mysb.com is back up.

It has started working! I didn't change anything. Turned it on, to
verify the fault one last time before packing. Local music works, live
radio works. Strange indeed.

Hmmm  not a good advert for the UE  given yours is the first
report of one in the wild!

Hope it's just a glitch.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Silent UE radio

2012-09-24 Thread onlyconnect

Hi

I am in touch with support but wondered if you have any ideas?

New UE radio does everything except play!

Have tried with Live Radio, local server, and Last.fm

Taking local server for example, I can select a track and see the album
artwork, but no music is played.

Amplifier/speaker works since it plays a startup tune on power up, and I
hear beeps changing menus.

Network is reported OK by diagnostics.

Have checked firewall issues, even connected by Ethernet direct to
router and setting it as DMZ.

Yes volume is turned up!

I guess possibly a faulty unit but it seems odd that it so nearly
works.
