Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Rolling back firmware - howto
Well I am stuck with this damn 7.5, try as I may I cannot go back to previous version. My first attempt to fix the 7.5 problem was to reinstall 7.5 - big mistake. I cannot go back with the rewind button and power on. I have reinstalled server 7.4.2 but no way can I get my radio to prompt me to install the 7.4 firmware, it just carries on working with 7.5.

I cant believe it - my radio has upgraded itself to 7.5 without my permission! I turned the radio off last night, and when I turned it on this morning, the radio went silent after about half an hour. It was only then that I noticed the version had gone up.

If they were not completely incompetent they would have released a fix by now. Ergo, sad to say, your optimism is unfounded. I personally have no confidence that we will ever have stable radios. The whole architecture seems flawed, primarily because the operation of these devices is dependent on a single website.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Rolling back firmware - howto
I know this may be a bit of a pain, but if you aren't running SB Server, past the link below in your browser and download the 7.4.2 version. If you've already got SB Server running 7.5.0, uninstall SB Server before doing this install. http://downloads.slimdevices.com/SqueezeboxServer_v7.4.2/ Assuming you're running Windows, for example, select the Windows Executable file. This will load version 7.4.2 of the SB Server on your computer. Then when you turn on your radio, it will eventually prompt you to download and install Software version 7.4.2 on your radio. You may need to attempt to connect to the server for it to prompt you. Once you do that, you'll be all set. This worked like a charm for me. Every now and then I get an upgrade screen on my radio telling me to upgrade to 7.5.0, but I hit one of my preset buttons and it goes away. -- diannabill diannabill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38082 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77742 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Either way I guess I'll keep the SBR and not return it to Best Buy, I hope I'm not sorry... I do have another glitch though. Occasionally when I pushbutton it on from the sleep mode it will back go back off (to sleep) after a few seconds. After the second push it will stay on. I'm not going to try to fix this one though as it's not that annoying. Editorial comment: I would have a hard time recommending this radio to someone else. This is the first time I have used a SB product and the hassle to make it work IMO is unacceptable. The product appears to still be in beta judging from my (and many others on this forum) experience.

What is amazing is that when I have the old firmware in place, the radio plays on and on. When it somehow restarts and installs the firmware without asking, which it does seem to be doing occasionally, I can instantly tell because the music stops on a regular basis.

Thank you for this tip! This has me now back to a time when I was happier with my Squeezebox. The only new feature of the last update I liked was that the alarm came directly out of the Squeezebox instead of the speakers I have plugged into it. This way, I don't have to worry about the volume setting on the speakers and have hope that they're loud enough in the morning.
