Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Okay to always have the screen on?
My Touch is a couple of years old now and I leave it on 24/7. The display still works fine. When idle, my Touch shows the clock and weather forecast from the SDT plugin. On the positive side, the Touch has an environment light sensor that adjusts the display brightness according to the available ambient light (automatic brightness control). So at night it is quite dark and that will prolong the displays life for sure. The automatic brightness control is configurable in the Touch. You can adjust the minimum and maximum brightness settings.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Experiencing Squeezebox Touch + EDO + Dac
How about decoding files Would you say that it's better to do that on the comp/serv. rather than in the touch? From my experience I get the feeling the sq seems better when decoded in the touch which runs contrary to what you hear ppl saying? what's your opinion? bubusia's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59020 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98082 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Experiencing Squeezebox Touch + EDO + Dac
Recent measurements elesewhere suggest that it is better to do it on the Touch, although the general consensus is the opposite to lower the load on the Touch processor. Frankly, if you have a fast NAS/server PC, a fast Ethernet connection and a good router you won't hear any difference...to use 24/192 is an overkill anyway and a waste of space and money. But hey, that's just my personal opinion...

I could be wrong, but as far as I remember you can only adjust the minimum in the automatic mode. If I'm not wrong this was the reason that I've switched to the manual mode, where a fixed brightness is used. I dimmed it quite a bit accepting the disadvantage that it can be hardly seen during a sunny day. But I hope that it will live longer with this setting. reinholdk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36070 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98104 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

But if you really want different firmware, you just connect your TOUCH to a PC running an older version of LMS/SbS and the firmware will be automatically downgraded to match. Again, I don't think this is your problem.

reinholdk wrote: I could be wrong, but as far as I remember you can only adjust the minimum in the automatic mode. True. But there is a way around that. First install the Patch Installer (through the applet installer). Next install the Reduce Screensaver Brightness patch (though the patch installer). This patch allows you to set both maximum and minimum brightness. I also use this patch to have a brighter screen when the Touch is playing in a low light environment. Works great.

So you've touched the touch screen to cycle through the various now playing screens correct?

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Need service or repair documentation
If you used a credit card to buy it, and that cc offers buyers protection (most do), you actually have a 3 year warranty (some restrictions apply). Absent a repair option the cc will either buy you a replacement or refund the entire purchase price. toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98102 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
