Got mine on Saturday.

I second DiSNEYNs' opinion.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Sluggish Interface

Mine seems quite snappy using WiFi.  Probably a bit slower screen
changes than my SB3, but not by much and it doesn't seem sluggish to
me.
Might just be the way the new players operate, dunno.

Speed seems fine to me on wifi. I think the color screen is much better
in many ways than the Boom display. If there's a lag or it's slower, it
not noticeable to me.

 Only me that thinks that the new color Interface/Menu is very very

 I Hope that this only is a minor setback in early firmware and that you
 will be able to fine-tune this to get a fluid feeling in the new color
 interface system. 
 
 I want FLUID moving menus. Not jumpy/choppy movement.
Mine seems fluid at present, although I also see the short delay when
pressing the power/standby button. Does it seem to happen with some
commands/menus in particular (eg, those showing album art, or those
where a long artist list is being generated), or is it all of them? 

How are you navigating the menus, with the knob or with an IR remote
from one of your other SBs? I don't know why it would make a difference,
but thought it would be a good idea to make sure we are talking about
the same thing. I use the knob exclusively -- the screen is so small
that I have to get up close anyway.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Sluggish Interface

2009-10-19 Thread Matt Wise

The LUA SqueezePlay UI work right now is focusing (obviously) on fixing
major bugs... but trust me that performance is always something we're
paying attention to. As Phillip mentioned, a recent update before the
release (r7790) removed some debug code that lead to a huge improvement
in the UI responsiveness and fluidity. 

I would recommend two things... 
a) its possible that a known memory leak in the Now Playing screen
has lead to your slow UI feel... does it go away when you reboot the
unit? If so, when 7.4.1 is released (very very soon), it should solve
the issue.

b) if the issue is present for you on a fresh-bootup, I'd recommend
taking a small movie of the issues your seeing (most modern digital
cameras can do this for you), and opening a bug @
http://bugs.slimdevices.com with the movie attached. Try to keep the
movie small please. 

If the issue is a new one... expect it may take a little while in the
priority list to get to it, but rest assured that as we continue to
develop SqueezePlay-based products the performance, reliability and
general wow-factor will only continue to improve.

a) No the choppyness stays whenever i reboot the unit or not. Just
compare scrolling from a menu to another with Classic/Boom. 

Yes, it's gotten a little bit better with the new 7.5 beta but again. I
want FLUID movment with no choppyness.

b) I will fix a small movie to show the diffrent (i know, some of you
maybe dont think this is a issue, but i always have had products from
Slimdevices that is top-of-the-line and i'm counting on the staff to fix
this minor issue) I understand that right now maybe there are more
importment bugs to fix, but it's good to know that you are working for
that Wow-feealing to come back to this unit, so it will be as good as
the other products?

Movie about the scrolling problem:

I will try to file a bug.

Thanks for listing to your users!
