Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 7.5.1 r9218
I just wanted to add my experience... after updating, I've had no problems with my Radio functioning. I leave it turned on (standby), connected via WiFi at work. I listen to Sirius and Slacker with it, and have played for hours at a time with no issues. I'm only connecting to MySqueezebox with it. I don't use the alarm, so I can't comment on if that works better/worse, but overall my Radio continues to function normally. -- virgiliomi virgiliomi's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33715 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83172 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Wireless conectivity is almost always something else it can ofcourse happen at the same time as a server or fw upgrade. I was a while convinced the sbs or sc was totally fubar untill i discovered that my neighbours messed with their wifi at the same time. But fw or server upgrade messing with the wifi conectivity thats is very far fetched conjecture, *mysb.com connectivity* however I think is a constant problem these days it varies like the weather but is always there somewhere. -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE rear ch.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 7.5.1 r9218
I remember somewhere on the forum the point being made that the Radio's basic function is to stream audio, and as long as it's doing that, any other functionality (alarm, station artwork, etc) is a bonus and can be discounted. The new firmware update has turned my consistent radio into a consistently intermittent radio now. Streams are constantly dropping after 30+ minutes, and I'm having to reset the radio several times a night just to keep the stream that I've listened to flawlessly with firmware 9009 just to maintain itself. Then it takes 5-10 minutes after reset for the entire home menu structure to appear. To be fair, this last behavior started a week or so before the firmware install. If the Rhapsody fix is indeed the only thing that's changed, then something has to explain why my radio no longer functions basically, or at least consistently. For me, it seems that with every firmware I download, my radio gets progressively crippled, so maybe the firmware install process is where the flaw is. I agree with one other posting on this thread that the new firmware has greatly affected the radio's wireless connectivity, at least to MYSB.com. I hope that the theory putting forth, that the abundance of connections to download the update is stressing the servers and affecting operation, is the answer, and this will turn around in due time. Otherwise, I might as well store it away out in the garage and leave you happy campers alone in your bliss. -- BLatSD BLatSD's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38631 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83172 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Are you using MySqueezebox.com ? I'm always asking myself whether the whole world downloading the new firmware just stresses the servers too much? Then of course everyone gets into trouble after the firmware update - but not because of the firmware but because the connection is not as good as it's used to be. SB Classic uses a different protocol to talk to MySqueezebox.com - it's routed to different servers so cannot be taken as a comparison. -- bluegaspode Big Screen for great Boxes available now at your AppStore: *'Squeezebox + iPad = SqueezePad ' (www.squeezepad.com) *!

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 7.5.1 r9218
If you hold down the "Back" button for ~2-5 seconds it will back you out of the update screen. You will still get update prompts from time to time, but you can back out of those the same way. As noted in the sticky post in this thread, this firmware only fixes problems that came up recently when Rhapsody made some changes to the way they stream music. If you don't use Rhapsody you shouldn't see any change with the update. -- aubuti aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83172 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 7.5.1 r9218
I got a prompt for an update, said "yes" and the update ran. Then I thought I'd test one of the new BBC HD programs and the box froze and ended up going into a reboot, freeze, reboot cycle. I ended up taking the battery out and then plugging it back into the mains at which point it settled down. Hopefully it won't freeze overnight as I need the alarm in the morning.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 7.5.1 r9218
My radio got the update last night when I powered it on (I power off my radio every morning, not to save power but give me much less headache). Everything went OK. The alarm went off this morning with default sound. Hit snooze and saw the "Unable to connect to network" message. The WIFI icon was blue. Tried to reconnect few times but not successful. Go back to my fix it all solution -- power off the radio and turn it back on. Everything become normal again, hopefully for at least 24 hours. -- ply3908 ply3908's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38634 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83172 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] 7.5.1 r9218
Thought I would share my little adventure with this update... 1. Downloaded/Installed update, which restarted the radio. 2. Home menu loaded with only 3 items "Now Playing", "My Music", and "Settings". Waited 2-3 minutes, the other options slowly appeared. 3. Pressed play button, began playing previously queued stream. That & wireless icon verifies internet connectivity is OK. 4. Chose "Favorites" on home menu, a little busy "swirly" appeared to the right of the menu text. Virtually locked up the radio, held power button & restarted. 5. Again, same 3 items appeared on home menu. Waited, nothing. Ended out restarting another 4 times before the other items slowly appeared. 6. Chose "My Apps", the little busy swirly appeared again, and again locked up the radio. Restarted, 3 menu items, restarted again. 7. Went to MyApps menu, finally displays contents. Chose RadioTime app and alphabetically pecked a search for a radio station. "Searching" with circular graphic remained onscreen indefinitely. Had to restart. 8. Went to Settings/Advance and re-downloaded/re-installed update. Dead tired, ended up dozing off in the middle of the update. 9. Awoke, 3 items on home menu. Feared that my radio had become an overgrown nightlight. 10. Unplugged, removed battery, reinstalled battery, and restarted. 11. Favorites, Apps, all seem OK now. Will give my bedtime radio another run at it tonight. Not to beat a dead horse, but funny how Rhapsody can have a problem and a week later a firmware update is released. What about some of the other MySB.com bugs that have been plauging the radio for so long now? -- BLatSD BLatSD's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38631 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83172 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
