[SlimDevices: Touch] adding receiver to my existing touch
sorry for this noob question but i couldnt find the answer despite searching. i already have a touch running on a wireless network, with SC on my pc, and i want to add a receiver to a different room but dont particularly want to pay the high price for a controller that goes with the duet. I also dont have a smartphone so dont want to control the new receiver that way, and as my pc is in a bedroom i dont really control the touch that way either 1. what i want to do is use the touch to control the new receiver, probably by syncing it up. i guess this is possible and when i first plug in the new receiver it will recognise the network? 2. i use the basic IR remote to control the touch. does this mean that if I want to control the receiver in a different room i have to point the IR remote in the direction of the touch or will the receiver itself recognise it as well? i realise that the receiver doesnt have a display so it wont be fully interactive when using the IR remote - but will it respond to basic volume commands or skip forward, back a track in a playlist that has already been set up via the touch? thanks -- tusken tusken's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39322 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81076 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

[SlimDevices: Touch] SB Touch feels sluggish at times
So I had the squeezebox for a few days. While the touch screen and larger display is very cool and a nice step up from the classic squeezebox that I also own, the device does not seem to be quite at the same level in terms of feature robustness as the classic squeezebox. The device feels a bit sluggish in many places. It feels more like a computer rather than a dedicated audio device. My SB network is fully wired, no wireless, running off of a gigabit HP switch. My SC is running on a ReadyNas with 1G of memory. Here are my thoughts and findings in no particular order. 1) In synchronized mode (Touch plus the Classic), volume adjustment can responds very slowly. This is the case despite the volume setting being non-synchronized between the two devices. When I first tested synchronized mode, one of the room's volume is too loud (SB Classic), so used the volume button on the remote to lower it. For the first 5 seconds or so, the volume adjustment on the Classic responded very very slowly (this never happens in standalone mode). After maybe 10 second, the respond time is normal again. 2) The next song starts to play when the count down timer is at -2 or -1. This happens with both Pandora or my own music library. On the classic this is dead accurate. How did this get past QA? ;) 3) The device responds very slowly in some situations. Switching from Pandora to a song on my SC occasionally is VERY VERY slow. Sometimes it seems to be in the order of 10 seconds or so before the song will actually start to play (not every time..) After I navigate to my song (.flac), and press play, the display switch back to the current song display, still showing the Pandora information (why not clear it since this is confusing), and then silent. After what seems like an eternity, the song will eventually start to play. Similar delay is observed when I press repeat. Sometimes the display will update showing the repeat info only after 4-5 seconds! 4) Again related to switching from Pandora to my music library. When I go to browse music folder, sometimes the device would just fail to connect to my SC and ask me to try again. I never experienced this type of delay and sluggishness when I am using the SB Classic. Not sure if this is due to the use of synchronized mode (the other SB is OFF). 5) I really think there ought to be a 'reboot/restart' option in the menu (or perhaps just a shutdown). Maybe it will clear out some of the sluggishness (like my smartphone). 6) I really like the new screen and be able to see the album art of whatever song Pandora is playing. The touch feature is useful, but I would've preferred a LARGER screen over a smaller one with touch capability. In this day and age with the ipad and what have you, the touch's screen just feels small, especially if you are at any distance from it. The default play info screen also doesn't make good use of the screen real estate. Why are there static title bar at the top/bottom of the screen taking up precious screen space? How about one where the album art enlarges to take up the entire left side, and the rest of the stuff (info, timer, etc) stays on the right? The controls such as stop, next, etc, can pop up on demand when the user touches the device. There's no point for these things to clutter up the screen. 7) In case anyone is curious, the capacitive touch screen is not the same kind as the one used on iphone/ipad. It actually bends slightly when pressed, like my garmin gps. The response is fine, but just isn't as glass like as the ipad/iphone's touch screen. 8) The Touch is more angeled upward compare to the SB Classic. I wish it was the same. I had to put some business cards behind the touch to have the screen be more vertical. This is more of a personal preference I guess, as I have the Touch on top of my speaker, rather than the stand where the TV sits at a lower position. Anyone know what OS the Classic SB uses? I know the Touch uses Linux as I've logged in and replaced the default fonts with Android fonts to support Chinese. The sluggishness feels like a slow computer or inadequate memory, like running Windows on an underpowered PC. Not the kind of response you get from a dedicated audio device. My WDTV Live never responds this slowly. Ok, to be fair, most of the time, the interaction is fine and feels snappy. But for a few operations that does matter a lot, like play music, it can be extremely slow and annoying. (With a crying baby wanting to hear her favorite music, I really don't have the patience to explain to her or my wife why the SB is not playing the music 10 seconds after I pressed play. ;) -- wildgoose wildgoose's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23501 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81089 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] SB Touch feels sluggish at times
I've had Duets for almost two years, and added in a pair of Touches recently to replace two of the Duet receivers, but continue to use my Duet remotes with them. I run the SBS on my main computer which is a pretty powerful Xeon quad core, and the response of the touches has always been pretty darn fast. Certainly as fast as the Duet receivers have been. I have everything ethernet wired and only use the wireless for the Duet controllers. Last weekend I tried running the Touch with it's own internal server in conjunction with a separately powered USB drive. Under that configuration I most certainly noticed the slow response you are talking about. Far slower than I was used to running the server on my computer. -- strindl strindl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39162 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81089 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

The small CPU and minimal amount of RAM in the Touch can never compare to a Xeon Quad Core running SBS. The OP was not talking about using TinySC, but using an NAS with SBS running local. But again, I would compare that to just being barely better then actually running TinySC on the Touch. YMMV. Again my opinion, but its time for the OP to have a dedicated Music Server that is NOT an NAS. -- iPhone *iPhone* Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, Vandersteen Speakers: Quatro Mains, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Video: Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1 Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: Second Boom Bathroom: Squeezebox Radio Ford Thunderbird: Duet, Mac Mini Ford Expedition: SB Touch, USB drive iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81089 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] 24/192
mortslim;568179 Wrote: As can be seen from the webpage of the manufacturer of the DAC in the squeezebox, the ability to output at any given sample rate is HARDWARE dependent. http://www.akm.com/prod-dac.asp So you cant just do some linux programming to change a chip that maxes out at 96kHz to get a higher sample rate. The chip is hardware limited in its sample rate and no after market programming will change that. You cant make a silk purse out of a sows ear. Wrong. The Touch uses an AK4420 which is 192 capable. 192 support can indeed be added via a firmware change to the ALSA driver, as JS has explained before. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] New Touch can't connect to network

Can't the Squeezebox work in a WEP network with a proper 10-digit password? I don't want to get my identity stolen... Unfortunately, your 10-digit WEP password is no more secure than having no password at all. Anyone seriously interested in stealing your identity could do so in less than 60 seconds. I'm only mentioning this in case you think you are currently secure - you aren't. 128 bit WEP is better, but WPA-2 is best. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...

[SlimDevices: Touch] Using Squeezebox as standalone w/o network
Hello all, I just got a SB Touch a few days ago. The setup was pretty straightforward, however, I have some newbie questions: - the data entry using the remote control was ok, but there's no button to select Enter. For example, after keying the SB Touch's hostname, I cannot move to the Done button. Instead, I need to touch the Done button onscreen. - I plugged in a SD card with music and pictures, started the SB server, and the scan of the media completed without any issues. However, when I navigate to Home Screen, then Music, it keeps asking me to Try again or Switch Library. How do I start the TinySBS server which allows me to play music as standalone? Thanks for your help. -- passivity passivity's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39755 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81101 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
