Yea if I go to Album then scroll right I can see track Numbers, just not when a song is playing!

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Tracks wont progress
andyt32 wrote: Yeh playing tracks from music folders works fine, but I thought before, when i selected the first track from the 'New Music' menu on the touch it would progress to the next track whatever folder it was in, maybe I imagined it though. You weren't imagining it - the older ones did. The new Media Server doesn't play individual tracks sequentially unless they are in a folder. It will stop after one song, and if you hit advance, it just starts playing the same track again. I discovered that after I updated the server on my Touch. A simple solution is to place all the files (and folders) into a new folder. cwon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=52118 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96778 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
[SlimDevices: Touch] Squeezebox touch downsampling ?
Hi, I'm new in the forum and with a new squeezebox touch (only 2 days of the new magic toy ;)). But... The first disappointment. I think! When I go to the characteristics of my flac files, i note that the bitrate are downsampling to 705 kbs. It is possible change that?

It should concentrated on - whether the USB input of the dac is compatible with EDO - what, if any, special procedure is required for compatibility - Is a USB2 hub required, and if so, from which sampling rate - up to what frequency is the USB input working - what quircks exist, if any One could arguably add some statements about whether users prefered the USB to the SPDIF input (this includes a degree of subjectivity) The google doc spreadsheet meets most of the above points Thanks for organising this - I've added a link the the spreadsheet to the first post in this thread.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Squeezebox touch downsampling ?
A 44.1/16 wave file has a bit rate of 1,411kbps. FLAC, of course, losslessly compresses that, usually reducing the file size to 40-60% of the original. So the bit rate you are quoting is par for the course and there is nothing at all to worry about. (The actual FLAC bitrate will vary throughout the file.)

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Squeezebox touch downsampling ?
Search the forum. The 705 is an artificial number reported by Lms. The touch does full 24/96 flac files with no down sampling or compression. garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97411 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Squeezebox touch downsampling ?
Yeas the reported number for downsampling is a bug it 24/192 is downsampled to 24/96 by SoX and this is totally transparent you can't hear that . Bug howso ? Apparently they never wrote any software routine to fetch the actual avarage rate done by transcoding so they use a place holder with the typical rate of 16/44.1 FLAC . IMO this placeholder could be just transcoded and we would not have this question every 14 days for the last 8 years :) Michael, Andy ? If you are interested there are old treads about how to set up the logs so that you can fetch the choosen transcoders and parameters for the stream Coax or optical ,depends on the equipment ,try both , I'm partial to coax if it works good ,optical have galvanic isolation if that is needed it's going to be the prefered solution . Noise and ground loops can be bigger problem than the digital interface but if you don't have such issues coax is good. For very good coax cable look at http://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/digital-audio/index.htm Don't be fooled by audio quest or Kimber or any other silly brand , you can get cables that cost 100 times more that actually performs worse .
