Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] What is the "Spotify Core" logo that's now on my SB Touch screen?

2015-01-03 Thread Ocean56

Correction:  it worked like a charm until I shut down the laptop I use
for my LMS server

NOW it brings up playlists on the Touch, but then messages pop up that
connection was reset by host and tracks say 'stopped'.

NOW what?

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] What works better than Spotify on the SB Touch?

2015-01-03 Thread Ocean56

Well, as I mentioned on my other thread, I DID have the 3rd party
plug-in downloaded, but not installed.

All works like a charm now.

2015-01-03 Thread Ocean56

Ok, I feel stupid.  

Between Googling things and going back to a thread I started TWO YEARS
ago, I figured it out.

I DID download the plugin, but never put in my Spotify username and
password!

I also needed to refresh LMS on the laptop I am using.

Once I did both of those things, it worked like a charm.

[SlimDevices: Touch] Touch disconnects from music source

2015-01-03 Thread Hoch

I have been experiencing an ongoing issue where after a period of idle
time, my touch becomes disconnected from my music library. In order to
reconnect I need to power the touch off and on, wait a couple of music
then using iPeng I have to drag and drop the touch to my music on the
multi player control screen. My Duet remains connected.

I am running Yosemite on my iMac, and run both Squeezeboxes wirelessly.

Yes, i did install it on the LMS on the laptop I use with the
Squeezebox.  So after that, i go to those settings on the touch itself
and finish setup?


No, the setting is in the LMS web UI.

My LMS server on the laptop I use shows that I have Triode's plug-in. 
That DOES mean it's installed, right?

Have you tried the "Triode" Spotify Plugin?  --- Spotify only costs $10
a month and with the Triode Plugin it is fantastic!

Highly unlikely.  No board schematics are published.

[SlimDevices: Touch] How to set up a Touch without a working screen

2015-01-03 Thread mrhcom

Hi, my Touch is only partly alive (see the thread Help - killed my
Touch? No screen or seen !!).
I understand that it might however still function without the screen
("headless") but the difficulty is the initial start-up routine.
With a duet receiver this routine is initiated by pushing the button on
the front and then the controller does the rest.
How can I try this with my half-dead touch? (I have controllers and use
the brilliant Squeeze Commander)
I have heard that it is possible to preload a sd card with a script that
will auto run on power-up to do this - but above my level of competence
Or is there a way to induce something physically 
Happy to try anything to rescue my touch (and learn too).
All help much appreciated.
Michael.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Help - killed my Touch? No screen or seen !!

2015-01-03 Thread mrhcom

Fizbin / johtem thanks for the input.
I was very careful to make sure the adapters I tried were correct.
I actually tried my Classic 3 one first (5v same plug but only 2a) and
when nothing happened I then tried the 2.5a one.
Polarity is correct.
I think the original adapter "dying" might be the cause of the problem.
I have also had a message saying that the touch will work with the
classic 3 adaptor (as long as no usb drive etc attached) - so looks like
the extra ampage is not the issue.

However I don't understand why the red light on the digital optical out
still flashes - seems to suggest that the unit is not 100% dead.
So I'm now trying to find out if there is some way to get the unit to go
through the start-up routine like a duet receiver and then use it
"headless".
I will start a new thread with that question.

If anyone has different info I would really appreciate it.

In most cases it was an adapter with a wrong voltage, 12V for example. 

Is the polarity of the barrel oké? I have a creative adapter with the
(-) on the inside and (+) on the outside.
