The new feature in the Touch for 100% does not work well with the
DenonAVPControl program because it locks the user out of the volume
settings.  Peters patch set the Touch at 100% but the UI still thought
it was adjusting the volume. We need that feature to control the device
which our plugins will in turn control the amps.

I have a request into Peter to see if he can update the instructions
for the patch for 7.7

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] New Touch User

2011-12-09 Thread bobm

I also don't fully understand the purpose of plugins on the LMS.  Some
make sense such as ‘Itunes Integration’, or ‘data time’ which are
specific to the functionality of the LMS, but what is the purpose of
something like the ‘Amazon CD store’ plugin.  In fact I disabled this
plugin but it still appears in the Touch’s app gallery which seems to
come from mysb.  Why does it even need to appear in the LMS.

I installed the slacker app, which works great, but where was that
actually installed, directly on to my Touch?

Thanks  Bob

The link to "On mysqueezebox.com" should appear at the bottom of your
list of favorites, whether you are looking at the LMS web interface or
the Touch's menu. 

It may be that you have to activate that with a setting in LMS, but I
don't remember for sure. If so, it is probably on the mysqueezebox.com
tab in the LMS Settings page. 

Btw, there is a setting for synchronizing settings between LMS and
mysb.com. I recommend that you do _not_ choose this option, because in
my experience that can lead to unpredictable behavior.

You may find it easier to keep your Favorites only on mysb. The
Favorites list on LMS has an entry "On MySqueezeBox.com", through which
you can access those favorites. It only links to the favorites list,
without switching your SB's connection from LMS to mysb.com. A lot
easier than trying to keep the LMS and mysb favorites lists sync'd.

Adding the Switch to MySB is a great trick, I'd also recommend moving
that to the very top of the Home Menu.

Couple other tricks or giveaways:
-  When you go to Favorites and you don't see "On MySqueezeBox.com",
you are on LMS.  If there is no "On MySqueezeBox.com" then you are
obviously on MySB.com.
-  In the first Favorite on both LMS and MySB, edit the name to begin
with LMS or MySB accordingly

That is a great idea! I know they are trying to get it all to work with
minimal input from the user but I would have prefered more specifics.  

Another thing I did was set the same favorites up in both MySB and

The only way you can differentiate between LMS and mysb,com is to place
the Connect to mysb.com menu option on your Home menu.  If you see that
option then you are connected to LMS - it disappears when connected to
mysb.com.

Thanks. And, yep, I think you're right. It appears that if Pandora is

when Pandora is playing one of he "Genre" stations, the icon is grayed

Ok, this may explain it. This happened in the morning, Touch is off and
LMS is sleeping.  I power up the Touch, it starts to wake up my computer
but it that takes some time.  I went directly to favorites, so the Touch
must have  grabbed them from mySB. It might be nice to have some
indiation in the UI alerting you to which service is connected
currently.

Check the track info, this is probably because the track is from a

Don't switch between them.  :)
Just leave your player connected to your local LMS server.  If your
player is switching away from LMS server by itself (unintentionally)
then something is wrong with your setup.

When you are connected to mysqueezebox.com you will only see Favourites
saved specifically at that location.

When you are using the LMS connection you see Favourites saved locally,
and if you have mysb.com Favourites these will also show as a separate
menu choice in local Favourites.

I am still a bit confused about mysqueexebox vs lms contection from the
Touch and when it changes.   I noticed I lost my favorites that I had
saved, but the reason I did was because the Touch was connected to
mysqueexebox and I did not make this selection.  When I looked at My
Music, it reconnected locally to the LMS and my favorites came back. 
What is the best way to manage this?

[SlimDevices: Touch] Pandora's "thumb-up" icon grayed out on Touch...

2011-12-09 Thread radish112

I infrequently play Pandora tunes via my Touch. Sometimes the
"I-like-this-song" (thumbs up) icon is grayed out, and sometimes it is
not. Even when the icon is grayed out on the Touch it does not appear
to be grayed out on the SB GUI.

Does anyone know why this may be so?

It's not a big deal, but it's a bit of a mystery.

The 'slimpy' file in the main directory is a python file, maybe I
should have 
given it a .py extension, but on Linux that isn't necessary because of
