Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] 32 vs 64 bit Windows 7 OS
As your server are dedicated to squeezebox use there will be no benefit. The performance as such are the same for 32 or 64 bit code. 64 bit gives you the option to address more memory and that can give you more performance if your program can exploit it; However squeezebox server does not. If you look in the taskmanager I will guess that windows + antivirus + squeezebox server does not use more than 900 MB. But since it is a dedicated server you could look into: - stopping unneeded services - uninstall Flash and other not needed programs On my server I have 35 processes running.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] 32 vs 64 bit Windows 7 OS
I learned a bit (pun intended)! The laptop shows 3 GB RAM available - not the 4GB installed, which I understand is due to 32-bit OS. I know a few who run LMS from Synology NAS with 1GB RAM and 1.8 Ghz processors with excellent results. I understand the Synology does not run Windows 7, as well. I have stopped all other services and removed any programs not needed, such as Flash, etc. I have the 64-bit version of Windows 7, but I think I will listen for a while and see if re-installing Windows 7 to 64-bit is worth the time. It is not only the re-install of the OS, but also that of the other programs such as LMS, dbPoweramp, the back-up software, Norton, etc. It appears improvement if any would be very incremental. -- flyfish2002 flyfish2002's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=52817 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92960 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

[SlimDevices: Touch] Plugins on the Tiny SBS?
Hi, I've been reading about all the plugins available for the Touch. However, all the advices/installation hints given there seem to relate to the PC based Media Server. Can anyone pls help me understand if plugins (all? none?) work on the Tiny Server as well, and how one would install them there.

If you can have more than one device on your connection, i,e, you can use a switch, then you could do this. What I'd so is set your computer's MAC address to be the same as that of the Touch (which needs to be disconnected), plug in the computer and go through the authentication process. Then disconnect the computer (reset its MAC address while it is disconnected), and plug in the Touch instead. The Touch should be able to use the authenticated connection. Then you should be able to plug your computer back in and re-authenticate. At this point you'll have two MAC addresses on the same port though, which is why it's important that they allow you to use multiple devices via a switch. If they don't then that's when you'd need to consider a router to give you your own 'local' LAN with only one connection to the campus LAN. -- paulster Receiver stuck at blue LED state after reboot?

The onboard server cannot run plugins, but the Touch itself can run what are called applets, at this point there aren't very many applets.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] At my wit's end!
With Windows there is a thing called internet connection sharing which does exactly what you want. You tell it to share your computer's wired connection over a wifi connection. It creates a new wireless LAN that the Touch may be able to connect to. The problem is that it might be an ad hoc connection and the Touch may not be able to connect to that. For sure you can do it with a hardwired connection, get a simple USB to ethernet adapter (small and cheap) and set the sharing to that new ethernet port, this has a very good probability of working. I'm pretty sure a Mac has a similar way to share its internet connection, but I'm not a Mac person so I can't tell you exactly what to do. Find the ethernet properties window and see if there is a way to share. If this works right you should be able to connect the Touch to the LMS on the laptop and play music without a connection to the campus network. If you want to get internet radio or MySB.com you would first connect to the internet with your laptop's browser, give password etc, then the internet should be available over the sharing connection.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] New SBT owner saying Hi with a question...
You are not using the phono input ? ( don't it's different ). Is the SBT much louder than the old cyrys CDP ? Try to use lower volume on the volume on the Touch 50-70 percent as experiment ? What I'm getting at is if you are overdriving the input. i have no clue about the cyrys design and whats suposed to be maximum input voltage. SBT is not very hot, but it is not unknown to overdrive it is usually some cultish tube designs that have this problem not well enginered stuff, so a low level possibility.
