Yes it is the microserver has slots for 4 internal drives and one could
cram one extra in the 5,25 bay too .

But anyway the server may be slow scanning and slow to use while
scanning , but it should not really be completely bogged down during
normal use ?

Also notice that using music folder is no longer possible while
scanning (it works normally after the scan is finished ).
cue sheets does not work in music folder browsing either fyi.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] RCA Output while in standby

2012-12-07 Thread giantpopples

I was talking about the 2 analog out..
I will test with another pair of cables to see if there is a problem
with it, I don't see how I could have a ground loop.

I hope its is not the sensitivity of the amp ! Since it is a pretty
straight forward amp, there's not much tweaking and no possible update..

Thanks for your advices !

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] RCA Output while in standby

2012-12-07 Thread giantpopples

I tried some things : first it was an electrical problem with the amp,
even with the SBT not powered I could trigger the amp just by touching
the RCA or by plugging it in the electrical powered off SBT..
Now it works but when I plug the SBT, the amp stays on standby until 
Free your music is displayed on the SBT and it powers on, so it
detects something !

That should probably means that my amp is too sensitive :-( Is there a
way I could reduce the noise from the SBT ? As you can see I am a real
beginner in electronics.

 Could you please comfirm this is your setup.
 You have LMS running on a Macbook Pro, your music files are located on a
 NAS, you access the NAS over your home network, and your Mac Mini has
 nothing to do with Squeezebox or LMS.
 
 I think if you had the music files on an external hard drive plugged
 into the Macbook Pro, the performance would be faster.  Is there any way
 you could test this.  This test would the eleminate the posibility of
 slow network access between LMS and the music files as the cause of the
 problem.
 
 Please don't tell Neo we are trying to help you :-)

agree. I suspect it is the files across the network that is slowing
scanning and browsing down.  To answer some prior questions:

1. Vortexbox is a complete operating system based on fedora linux.
Installing it would wipe out the OS on your PC. So that's probably not
what you want. It is good on a dedicated media PC.  But running LMS on
any decently powerful computer (i.e., NOT a low powered NAS) with
attached USB drive should be just fine (Mac, PC, linux based, etc.)
2. I can scan 70,000 files on both my Vortexbox Appliance (small PC
running VB) or my Win7 laptop with files attached via USB 2.0 external
HD and in both cases the clear and rescan full scan takes about an hour.

[SlimDevices: Touch] Play List Options

2012-12-07 Thread johnreid

I have made a play list in LMS but it is in two pages. I would like to
add to it, but am unable to add anything to the first page. All of my
additions go to the bottom of the second page and I can organize them
there and only there. I apparently cannot move additions to the play
list from the second page to the first page. Is there a way around this
problem?

You may be able to get the playlist on one page by playing with the
Items Per Page setting.

[SlimDevices: Touch] Future Squeezeboxes added to network requiring user account at mysqueezebox.com

2012-12-07 Thread klezmer41

I have a Boom and a Touch, and the Boom connected just fine. The Touch
is brand new, and I had a hell of a time connecting it. I'm using WEP
and found out that the authentication couldn't be shared, it needed to
be open authentication or no authentication. Ironically, shared is
less-secure. Go figure.

Anyway during setup, I was required to put in my user/pass for
mysqueezebox.com.

What will happen to the Squeezeboxes if this website is shut down, and
also if it's shut down will I be unable to add new Squeezeboxes to the
network?

If you use music folder instead of artist ,album ,genre then acess
over network would slow down browsing as you actually are browsing the
folders and files and are not using the scanned database.
