Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] How large a music collection is too large for TinySC?
This really is an apples / oranges comparison, but one which logitech have brought upon the product. I use an ipod hate itunes. It's a portable device. My Squeexbox Players are intended for quality, no high quality home listening as priority one, then remaining players for convenience sharing a central database of music. They have always been a little 'techie' to set up. A long time ago I gave up on wireless connection for example for serious listening... just inherent problems with wi-fi not specifically squeezebox. I would like a Touch. When I can find one... at a sensible price! For wired ethernet listening and ability to stream hi-res tracks without probs. It'll be a plug in replacement for a Classic. So by comparison to an ipod it is for me a completely differnt beast. Logitech could do much better at really making clear what this device is for.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Squeezebox Touch Review
Its most likely was resizing a very large image file, this can take a large amount of memory. To see more detail for a specific task you go to: settings-advanced-logging This is a list of all the different tasks. For each you can choose a level of logging that goes into the file. By default they are all set to info which gives general info about what is happening, such as that message about starting the artwork scan. There are other levels that give more info. You can try setting it to warning and see what happens. Debug gives the most info, but it can make a big file. The fun part is figuring out which task to set to a higher level. I'm not in front of my Touch right now so I can't tell you exactly which to choose. See if there is something like image resizer, if not I'm sure there is a generic squeezeboxserver one. There also might be a scanner one as well. With one of these you can probably track things down.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Brightness Logic
After learning about the Factory Test - Ambient Light Sensor, I've taken a look there, but for me I've seen the values stay at 0 when it's dark in the room. No high numbers. However the problem seems to have also disappeared. Only once now (in fact the first time) did it happen so that I turned the room lights off, and the Touch display remained bright. So I went to see what the sensor values were, they were reading at 0, but then the Touch suddenly turned dim. This was no gradual change like it normally does, but rather a flip-of-a-switch kind of changing to very dim. I have not seen that behaviour since. But also, my Touch seems to be very obedient in relation to the ambient light level now. My own speculation is that maybe the sensors don't get initialized properly or the reading fails somehow, and going to the Factory Test / Ambient Light Sensor initializes them properly so that the Touch works correctly after that. Only this doesn't match what anyone else is observing, at least from what I read here. I should note that I tend to turn off the power from the device if I don't need it, so it goes through frequent hard resets. The reason why I do want it on at night time is to have the go-to-sleep and also the alarm functionality.

[SlimDevices: Touch] Music collection scanning question - can scanning be disabled?
Hi everybody, I will get my SB Touch later today. I got scared reading about problems with external USB drives and large music collections. Many people reported problems with long scans that never finish because of server running out of memory, crashing/ending with some cryptic messages. I have all my files organized in folders by artist's/band's/albums names. I prefer to access my music just by browsing the music folder. I do not use tags inside the files and I do not need album artwork on that tiny screen. Can I disable tags and artwork scanning in some advanced options section?

Crutchfield must have labeled it incorrectly. I got the email too. I'll be ordering it in a few days. Hopefully their inventory will hold out. :) Yeah, asking them might have been a good idea, but then again I was just posting a fact. It seems to have been an anomaly. -- mdaudioguy mdaudioguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=25699 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79288 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

[SlimDevices: Touch] Screen Burn In?
Is there any possibility of screen burn in with the touch? I've been running my touch constantly for around 3-6 hours a day some days and it has just occurred to me that this might be an issue. I don't particularly want the function controls burnt into the screen, nor the date when using a date/time screen saver when the touch is off. -D -- drewe181 http://www.studionika.com.au drewe181's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8129 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79340 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
[SlimDevices: Touch] Scrambled Track Order in Playlists
Lately, my SB Touch has been exhibiting an odd problem relating to how both albums and tracks are added to the current playlist. Adding an album in SB Server 7.5 results in a scrambled track order, and single tracks added to an existing playlist are added randomly, not at the end of the playlist. This also happens when using iPeng. I also have a SB Classic which I run off the same server that has not developed this issue. Tracks in added albums appear in the correct order, and added tracks are placed at the end. This is a Touch-only issue. I've checked the settings for the Touch in the server, and everything appears correct, i.e. nothing is set to operate randomly. Any thoughts regarding this problem? -- Subarctic Audiophile Main System: SB Touch, Cambridge Audio DacMagic, Magnepan 1.6 speakers, NAD c272 power amp, Monolithic Sound PA-1 preamp, Channel Islands headphone amp.
