I'm unsure the interface may be abused by third party apps etc ,another one is 9090 for cli interface. On my desktop i'm a bit relaxed re the squeezeboxes, so I have created a fw rule to allow all conections from that particular ip adress and I use static ip in my network. ssh and scp is port 22 ? if you use that . if one uses the Touch in standalone mode one would also have to make sure that the fw is open for samba (smb) so that you can transfer files to it. -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] SBT with USB Hard Drive
Dead OS HD in my dedicated server. So I plugged in an iomega Prestige model USB HD that I'd filled with a backup of my music library. Works surprisingly well. Much better than my previous attempt at using a USB drive (WD drive installed in empty USB drive case). I miss a few plugins I had installed in SBS, and yes the Touch is less responsive (reacts more slowly) this way. I think the sound is also slightly harsher (maybe due to addition of USB drive wall wart PS to setup?). But overall I'm pleasantly surprised. I will fix my dedicated server and go back to using it; but I could live with this for a while if needed. -- firedog GIK Acoustics Room Treatments.

Not saying linear supplies are pointless, just saying that the labels "linear" and "switching" don't necessarily denote quality or better sound. Sometimes "linear ps" is thrown around like "any linear PS will be an audible upgrade". -- firedog GIK Acoustics Room Treatments.

[SlimDevices: Touch] Syncronized lyrics with .lrc files
Hello I'm slowly adding some lyrics to my collection as .lrc files in my music folder, since my .mp3 player is able to read them, making a sort of karaoke and scrolling the lyrics together with the song. Now, I was wondering... I have a wonderful squeezebox touch with a big touch screen... Is there a way to make it doing the same thing? What I need is a plugin that just reads the .lrc files (saved in the same folder of the music file, with the same name except for the .lrc extension) and visualize it properly. I don't even need any "lyrics fetching" feature, I just want to read the .lrc I already have. I tried to search through the forum, but I haven't been able to find anything like that. Is there a way to do that? -- BlackTornado BlackTornado's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38063 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88397 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

The question is - how good is the one that comes with the Touch? Mine seems to occasionally 'buzz'. I suspect it's related to the power coming in to my home. After reading about linear power supplies, I bought one. While I can't say for certain that it sounds dramatically better (although I think there is an improvement in quieter backgrounds), I can say that it doesn't 'buzz'.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] rsync on the Touch
Hi again Jean. Yes i know you are running Linux. In fact, I mentioned this sync tool because its a simple way to implement a good reliable synchronization in a win environment, without using a virtual pc in order run Linux. Ive used this program for almost 6 month now, and only once experienced time stamping problems. At this point, it was related to internal clock in the touch, and after performing a factory restore I was up and running again.
