[SlimDevices: Touch] Stream won't play: rtsp://129.65.35.106:8000/stream.sdp
Hi all, Trying to play this radio station stream from a local radio station- but they warn on their site that not all players can play the stream as it's AAC/MP4, presumably better fidelity. The three options they give is a QuickTime QTL stream, a RealPlayer RAM stream and the above. No luck so far in getting any of them to work. Is there a workaround that would allow me to get this station or is an AAC/MP4 stream something that Logitech is going to have to implement at the website? Thanks for any help!

I'm not at home, so just from memory, simply plugging the ethernet cable into your TOUCH is not enough to switch it over to ethernet. Try doing a factory reset on the TOUCH (a little button on the back just above where the powercord goes in). After the factory reset, plugin the eithernet cable to the TOUCH. Do NOT enter your wifi password on the TOUCH (we don't want it connecting to WIFI, only the ethernet). -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85697 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

based on what you said, you have a single ROUTER attached to your modem, and the router is handing out IP addresses via DHCP. This is ok. (I do prefer to setup all my nonportable items with a fixed IP address, but we can save that for later if needed).

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Any Hardware/Memory Diagnostics available?
I'm still being plagued by this issue. It happened again last night when I attempted to change from one favorite to another. The slimserver process was running at 80% again, so it is definitely some kind of hang. I need to determine if it is a hardware problem or a bug in the latest Touch server. I'm thinking hardware since no one else seems to be reporting this issue. It may be related or not, but I also had an issue where the clock was off by 5 minutes over 10 days. I went away on a business trip and when I returned I was surprised that the internal clock could be that inaccurate. 30 seconds a day seems like an awful lot. Perhaps this causes a problem with the OS? I'm just guessing at this point until I can find better tools to troubleshoot the issue. -- steve781 steve781's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42824 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85484 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Numptie Appeal for Help Please
Just wanted to second Toby10's comment, so forgive me if you already know this. Most routers 'out of the box' dynamically allocate IPs to devices as they attach. But that isn't the way it has to be. In your router's setup pages you'll have a way to allocate each device an IP. That is REALLY important on a squeezebox-equipped network and doing it will solve SOOO many potential issues down the road. The main problem happens when you reboot a conected device or the router, or the router's 'lease' to the device runs out (they usually only have a set time) and the router re-allocates a new IP to the device. Suddenly the squeezebox can't find the squeeze server, or the internet, or etc etc. Have a read of your router's config pages and learn how to allocate all your connected devices their own, fixed IP. Don't get confused with a fixed IP at your ISP - this is a fixed IP on your own network. Hope that makes sense!

My internet service is ADSL, said to offer up to 20 Mbps ( by the telephone/internet service provider but not by me!). This is where it may start to get a little more complicated :-). Perhaps I did not explain myself very well previously - I USED to get the IP Address conflict message but I haven't had it for a while. I did for a brief period try to replace my 'G' type modem router with a cheap 'N' type router, using the 'G' type in place functioning only as a switch. My simple logic was that it might give me a bit more speed and a few more wired ports but I could never get it to function consistantly so I went back to square one - the IP Address problem may well have been related to this brief trial.

I have a simple home wired and wireless network and the iPhones connect to that,, what else is there? Regarding the Command Prompt, again this may be where it starts getting complicated. My Vaio MM PC is running Win7 Home Prem. but the other 3 (workstation, laptop and netbook are all running Win XP (fully updated with Service Packs etc.). The workstation is a wired connection only, the laptop is both wired and wireless and the netbook is wireless only.

(nothing other than a series of dots) Command Prompt also lists 4 Tunnel Adapters, (3 ISATAP and 1 Teredo Tunneling), none of which means anything to me but may, hopefully, mean something to you :-) Hopefully you can stick with me for a bit longer.

I have an option in dbpoweramp to do it either way on ripping. And compilation tag would only be present (and =1) on a true compiliation. So if I have a 3 disk grateful dead album, it is NOT a compilation. -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85791 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Do you have a SINGLE router? How does the internet get to your house? Cable? DSL. And do you have, for example, cable modem feeding a SINGLE router. If you are getting IP conflicts, it may be because you have more than one router on your network handing out IP addresses. -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85697 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Newbie with Questions for the Experts
I've noticed that the SB Touch can be a bit fussy with the WIFI signal. My signal was dropping to abot 30-40% and playback was getting interupted (no other devices using WIFI). I set up another router in the same room as the Touch, configured as an access point and wired into the main router. My signal is now at the 70% mark and playback is flawless :-) -- alexlark alexlark's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44276 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83244 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
