Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch in bridge mode for use with a Controller and no access point ?
Thanks a lot for the hints, after a hard working week end I did the job. Conditions are static ip for touch, controller, squeezebox server, ... and encrytion WPA-NONE for the ad-hoc mode. So the controller can only be used when the touch is running. I adopted the interfaces and wpa_supplicant.conf on controller and touch and added some things to the rcS.local on the touch for routes and arp-proxy (helpful were parts of a touch script named bridge in init.d).

[SlimDevices: Touch] Memory Usage
Hi all! After downloading the latest software I noticed that the Memory Usage was at 70% just with the HDD hooked on the USB(Not playing)...is that normal? Is there anyway to see if there is something working in the background? The software seems slower when using the HDD. Songs seem to take longer to play. What do you guys think? Thanks in advance.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Duet + dacmagic or Touch

You need to level the volumes from the SB and CDP first (ideally with a sound pressure level meter) to get a meaningful comparison, even for a rapid test. Yes, I try correct volume leveling (but It was just a rapid test not a full and perfect ABX). It's not the place to debate (a classic debate) about ABX test. I'm not an idiotphile buyer too. There's for me, my wife a noticable difference (for me better and I'm often more objectivist than most audiophile)...just tested for the analog stage. I don't know if dac magic+SB Touch give better result.

I don't say that, I think that globally, I Touch is a little higher priced (in France 50 difference) there's a lot of little improvements : better cpu, embedded server, better dac, touch screen etc. And if you want a remote you can buy a duet remote but also use an Iphone or Android phone. -- enestu enestu's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37825 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79576 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
[SlimDevices: Touch] Windows Media Player song rating visible in Touch
I have spent some time assigning stars rating (1-5) to my songs under WMP 11. Now, when listetning from a PC I find it very useful when I see my song rating in the WMP playlist view. As far as I know Windows Media Player allow you to store a song's rating internally inside an mp3 metadata. Is there any chance that this kind of information would be read and shown by Touch in the now playing view?

Is it possible to let tiny sbs treat the composer as artist? As a classical music lover, I have build a library with a tagging system over the last years that depends heavy on this feature.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Server control: composer as artist
You can connect to it using the CLI on port 9090 (telnet touch 9090). Then send a pref conductorInArtist 1. This should do what you want. You can verify the pref value using pref conductorInArtist ?. -- Michael ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Server control: composer as artist
Yes, by editing via ssh the following file on the Touch : /etc/squeezecenter/prefs/server.prefs you have access to far more user preferences than what the Touch UI (with Tiny SC) gives you. In your case, you have to change the following line: composerInArtists: 0 into : composerInArtists: 1 You can also change the conductorInArtists and bandInArtists parameters. However, after having done these changes, I noticed that there was a bug in the navigation by artist, when the artist is a Composer : you can't access directly to the tracks of an album this way; you have to go into the contextual menu ('+') and choose Play.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Which tags?
On the Touch, go to : Settings - Advanced - Remote Login - Enable SSH Note the address (for example 192.168...) and password (by default 1234) given by the Touch. If you have a Mac, open a Terminal window and type the following command : ssh -l root the_address_given_by_the_touch Then you will be prompted for the password. And now you have remote access to the Touch. On a PC, I don't know how to do it (I've read that you can use a program called putty...). Anyway, on the Mac, here is what I do next : cd /etc/squeezecenter/prefs/ The I use the vi program to edit the server.prefs file : vi server.prefs You then have to locate the composerInArtists line and, in your case, replace the 1 by a 0 and save your modification. On the Touch you will have to wipe out your old database scan and do a full rescan of your music files, so that the composers are no more listed in the Artist menu.

Thanks Michael, set and done via ssh. Any idea when the navigate bug will be fixed? As you said, at the moment you have to choose the context menu at the album level and choose play, but that will play the whole album, starting at track 1. So you have to go into the playlist and choose the track where you want to start. (I've got several 'Albums' like 'Mahler: Symphonies (Haitink)' -- all symphonies form one album.)
