It (and iPengHD and SqueezePad) are the best dollar-for-dollar
investment I've made in my squeezebox ecosystem. 

edit: and purchase ipeng playback and your iphone is now another SB
Player (that can sync with other players, do gapless, etc.).   A $4.99
squeezebox!

Thanks for the info!  I downloaded iPeng yesterday and wow! what a
difference; much better than the rudimentary Squeezebox app.

Full ack except for the button thing. You've got more buttons on the
main screen than iPeng and with the exception of the +/- ones I don't
believe any of your buttons are bigger.
It's just that - as you already said - if you spend 3/4th of the screen
estate for other things than actual menu content you can use that to
calm down the appearance a lot :)

pippin already answered that. We do have different UI philosophies - I
try to keep more space around menu items and buttons which makes the UI
look cleaner and it also doesn't have as much buttons around on the main
screen which often do confuse some users (or are hard to hit, when they
are small). Also I stick to the menu philosophy of the Squeezeboxes,
which makes it easier for people to switch between devices, as they
don't have to remember different paths in the menus ... stuff like that


But I want to repeat: "it boils down to personal preference" and
typically me and pippin do have very different opinions about that and
used to start arguing a lot about what is better.
As you can see in the AppStore comments both Apps have a huge fanbase
among it's users, so both of us must be doing something right :)

Well, they are different Apps
Have a look at http://penguinlovesmusic.com to learn more about iPeng or
the screen shots on the App Store.

The two Apps do more or less the same but have a different UI
philosophy. SqueezePad tries to stick closely to the known Logitech UI
while iPeng tries to do things more iPad-like, showing big cover art
while browsing, flattening out some menu structures, showing more
content at a time and more details in some menus, stuff like that.

It's really boils down to personal preferences...

On both the SqueezePad app and the Logitech Controller app for iPad the
Power button does not work properly.  On the SqueezePad app, when it
streams music the screen on the device (Radio or Duet) is blank /
black..  Some other quirky issues not album art and channels no updating
on the iPad app for the Logitech Controller app..

What is the difference between ipeng and SqueezePad?  I use my
Squeezebox products to stream Sirius XM radio and sometimes Pandora

Rest assured. I'm facing problems too. Since I downloaded iOS6 I have a
lot of troubles in accessing the player commands. Sometimes the screen
freezes. On the other hand, my iPad1 and my wife's iPhone 3gs are both
runnuning on iOS 5.1.1 and still working well. I truly hope Logitech to
be aware of these problems and prepaing an app update.

I only wrote a Blog post on my homepage about iOS6 and SqueezePad yet. 
Actually it's only a very short one: no known problems with SqueezePad
and iOS6.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] iPad iOS 6 issues with SqueezePlay and Logitech Controller

2012-09-25 Thread dixie44

Yesterday I started having problems with the iPhone and iPad Squeezebox
Controller app.  I downloaded ios6 on 9/16 and only yesterday (9/24) did
I start having problems.  And yesterday I could not access my
squeezebox.com account on my iMac.  Apparently the server was down but
this morning I was able to access my account online.  I had to do a
reset (2 receiver), but I could only "see" one player on my iPhone and
iPad.

The Logitech App seems to have some problems with iOS 6 from what you
can read here.

I didn't hear anything negative about SqueezePad, yet so I believe it
works, somebody would have written something.
iPeng definitely works except for a glitch with the time zome in setting
alarms (they are _shown_ correctly, though) and a problem when following
JavaScript links in the built-in Browser but that seems to be rarely
used by anybody but myself, at least nobody reported it, yet.

Side question. How are you running squeezeplay on iPad?  Do you mean
squeezepad.

[SlimDevices: Radio] iPad iOS 6 issues with SqueezePlay and Logitech Controller

2012-09-25 Thread jmiller284

Not sure where I need to post this but since upgrading to iOS 6 on my
iPad I can no longer use my Logitech Controller app nor the SqueezePlay
app to control my Squeezebox Duet and Squeezebox Radio.  Are others
having the same issues?
