Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch Won't Play SD Card

2011-11-13 Thread Mnyb

Make sure that you start the internal server on the Touch and that it
scans the files (have patience it is slow) and then use the music menus
like artist and album when it's finished .

Note that the "music folder" option is blocked while it's still
scanning try album ,

Also let the the new Touch upgrade itself they are delivered with very
ancient firmware (I'll be surprised if it worked).
I'll get new 7.7 fw from mysqueezebox.com when you register it.

Which server version do you have ? to function with Touch it should be
>7.5 or better, but the internal servers seems to work better >7.6

I intended to try with my 8GB card but guess what the card reader in my
pc an my OS could not mount it :) it works trough my camera thou .

I actually would be very surprised if an hardware error actually
disabled SD card or USB drive access.

Have you seen this wiki , maybe slightly outdated but the only good
instructions on using Touch as server .
Note that it will actually be a small server system and that you
actually connect the player to the server on the same machine just like
you connect and external squeezebox . It is not very well suited for
temporary playback even if it works it even runs samba so you acess the
drive over the network.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch Won't Play SD Card

2011-11-13 Thread Andy T

Logitech apparently changed their mind and sent me return authorization
paperwork last week. Next question is how long its going to take for me
to get the replacement.

Mnyb-I'm using a XP computer to rip CDs to flac files on a big USB hard
drive connected to that computer and copy those files to SD cards. My SB
Classic connects to that computer to play music at home.

The physical lock on the cards is not switched on. I've not
deliberately done anything to make them un-writeable.

I think the cards are formatted FAT32. My computer doesn't ask me
anything when I pop a new card in.

I've tried 16 & 32 GB SDHC cards. The 16 GB card had 6 song files on
it. So it was a long way from being full.

The 32 GB cards were written long before the Touch showed up. I made
them for use in my HP Windows Mobile pda running a program called
Pocket Player. Works great as a personal player and plugged into my
car's audio system. Bought a Touch in part because I thought I might
want to take it and a card or 2 to someone else's home to play my music
there sometime. The point is to use the cards that have a primary use in
something else in the Touch also. I've already got primary and backup
1.5 TB USB hard drives full of flac files. I don't want to buy and fill
a smal hard drive with files to use just if I get asked to supply
music.

My Touch didn't work with a USB flash drive either. So I doubt a hard
drive would have worked.

I don't know what SSH or ls-la are.

The Touch did read the jpg cover art files off my cards. Just not the
flac files.

Gary- As I wrote above, the purpose of the SD cards is to use in my
personal player. A small USB drive would decrease the portability of
the player. And I don't want to make up a small USB drive just in case
I want to take the Touch somewhere.

I'll post again once I've had a chance to shake down the new Touch. I
wonder if Logitech will check it out before sending it to me.

Andy

i.e. "To remove the ID3v2 in Mp3tag, highlight the files and then do

they'll be removed. "

Now that's pretty easy once you know how.

Mp3tag will not write ID2 tags to Flac files. If there are ID3 already
present then it will leave them alone, but it never creates them or
saves data to them. The only application that I've seen write ID3 tags
to Flac files is EAC. Make sure you untick the option in EAC to write
ID3 tags when you rip a CD and encode with Flac.

As amcluesent says above, removing the ID3 tags is awkward, but it does
work. Either cut & paste, or cut & undo.

If the analog outs of the Touch are connected to any amp (obviously via
RCA cables), then the Touch internal DAC will be involved.

If the digital out of the Touch is connected to an amplifier that has
its own DAC (via either a 75 ohm coax or a Toslink cable), then the
Touch internal DAC will be bypassed and the amp's DAC will do the
converting.

Create a free www.TuneIn.com account, enter your local zip code in

[SlimDevices: Touch] Country disappeared?

2011-11-13 Thread Zlipknot

After the latest software update (7.7.0 r9550), I lost all internet
stations from my country (Denmark). When I go into the menu for
"Internet Radio->Local Stations" I am now apparently living in
Ireland(?) and there seems to be nowhere to switch country?!? The
account I am using is registered correctly at mysqueezebox.com. Is this
kinda screwed up or am I missing something? Hope someone can help as
this little thing is sooo frustrating to work with.

As you can hear, I find this REALLY annoying as we have quite a few
good local stations (I don't mind the Irish but ... I really like the
local radio!). Even moreso after I gave up on the tiny squeezebox
server thing due to all the problems with USB standards and
insufficient power on the frigging touch USB port. Apparently it was a
surprise that people would connect small USB harddrives...so in effect
the latest update bricked the touch for me.

S...I hope for one of you all-knowing guys here to help me out a
bit as I am very close to throwing this stupid thing that could be so
f*** great out the window and surrender to Apple. Am I the only one?

cheers, and already now thanks for the help guys!

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Instructions for connecting USB DAC to Touch

2011-11-13 Thread n0rb3rt

Successfully connected SB touch to Outlaw R2150 USB.  Works 90% of the
time and sounds great.  But occasionally the sound degrades into a
strange sort of tinny, robotic distorted version.  Sometimes it fixes
itself after a minute but sometimes requires a full reboot (unplug) to
fix.

Is this the same thing as the clicks and pops others have described? 
Or am I dealing with something different?

Haven't tried changing buffer settings or other tweaking yet.

you cut all tags and then paste them back .

provided you have set mp3tag to not write id3v tags to flac files .

mark a bunch of files cut and paste , it is awkvard a menu of some sort
