Ok there are two settings music folder and playlist folder in music you
put ripped albums (in one folder per album ) in playlist you put the
playlist suggest not using the whole computer organise things in neat
folders .

I THINK so, yes.  But I just thought of something else I noticed.

what is the fileformat did you tag the files properly . Did you place
the files within the path specified in the basic settings (you have a
setting for music folder )

Even if the tagging is not correct you should find them by browse via
"music folder" in LMS

[SlimDevices: Touch] SBT is not picking up CDs I just ripped onto my hard drive

2015-03-26 Thread Ocean56

I just ripped 5 CDs onto my 1TB Western Digital hard drive.

I then opened SBS on the laptop I use strictly for that purpose.

SBS added the CDs successfully to the folder on the HD that I use for
the music that I rip.

I then turned on the SBT to play one of the just-ripped discs.  It
wasn't listed in the new-music list, although a lot of OTHER music was
listed, some from being added quite awhile ago.

So I re-scanned for music in SBS.  I did a software update on the SBT. 
I also re-booted both the laptop and the SBT (by pulling the plug on the
SBT).

I went into SBS settings and looked at the library.  The CDs I ripped
are in it and in my folder on my hard drive.

The SBT will NOT find them when I search, either by album or by artist.

What's my next step?  Thanks as always!

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] SB Touch screen malfunction

2015-03-26 Thread Fizbin

A bad power supply would more likely cause the unit to not get enough
power, but it doesn't hurt to try another one. Just make sure you match
the specs exactly.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Spotify or Google music?

2015-03-26 Thread stefcon1

Thanks Seb, i'll have a look but i suspect that will be a bit convoluted
for me. I'm looking for a simple solution and if i can't find one then i
will probably go back to Spotify, which just works with the Touch.

Yeah garym, think we were at cross purposes. If i were to take my TOUCH
out of my set up, then i would indeed get a DAC and bypass the one in
the PC but it would be a simple and fairly cheap piece of kit. The one
in the Touch is more than adequate otherwise.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Spotify or Google music?

2015-03-26 Thread srasher

There is another option. Forum user hechtus wrote a plugin for direct
Google Music integration into LMS, contains a lot of near-perfectly
working access functions to a Google Music account. There is one
limitation, it only works "out-of-the-box" on Linux based systems (I
personally got it to run with minimum effort on an Odroid U3 ARM based
mini-computer running Ubuntu), Windows seems to be quite problematic.
Not sure if someone managed to install it there properly. About MacOS I
didn't follow.

Here is the related forums thread which made me aware of this plugin
(not sure if also an "official" thread started by the plugin author
exists):
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?99482-Stream-google-play-music/page2&highlight=googlemusic+plugin

Here is the project's GitHub site with installation instructions:
https://github.com/hechtus/squeezebox-googlemusic

As I said, it is just a completely alternative option to the "Google
Music over DLNA" approach (which I never got to work properly), just in
case ;-)

Cheers,
Seb
