Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Alarm Function Removed After Firmware Update??

2010-06-19 Thread coreyo

It appears that the radio needs to be connected to mysqueezebox.com for
the alarm to even show up. Is this correct? So if I lose my internet
connection overnight, the alarm won't work in the am This alarm
clock seriously needs to be connected to the internet to work???
Seriously??

it needs to be connected to a server (either local or mysb) to set the
alarm.

if your network dies overnight, then you get an annoying sounding
fallback alarm.

it clearly can NOT play network radio if it's not on the net  I
don't know why that would be surprising.  it can not play files stored
on a local server if the server is off.  again, i don't know why that
would be surprising.

You find it surprising that the alarm function doesn't work when I lose
my internet connection? Hell, the $8 job from walmart doesn't need
internet to buzz buzz buzz. When I say it doesn't show up, I mean it
doesn't even give an option for alarm. Its as if the alarm function
doesn't even exist. I'm really not sure where you got that I was trying
to play files here or even network radio. I have been talking about the
alarm the entire time

Geees, read what I said.

the alarm works FINE.  it will make an annoying 'fallback' alarm sound

it will NOT play a radio stream via the net if you do not have net
access.

you can only SET the alarm when you have access to a server, because
the server -and- the radio need the alarm settings.

the -settings- of an alarm are not the same as the ACTIVATION of an
alarm.

I'm not sure what this means. I am using the one that popped up on the
box and the computer. So probably the official one.

thanks for replying
