Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Can two Squeezebox Touches coexist on one network?

I have a bunch of 'em. Typically four are permanently synchronised and
the rest play independent streams.

for the rDac it gives the following for supported sample rates:

USB
32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz

Optical
44.1kHz, 48kHz

Coaxial
44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz, 176.4kHz, 192kHz

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] 24/96 Perfromance Issue ( Solution!)

2010-05-04 Thread SteveEast

rotho;543088 Wrote: 
 Hi John,
 
 I have made more tests this evening and here are the successive values
 of the CPU usage of the perl slimserver.pl process :
 
 1) When using the HDD :
 1.1) With a 24/96 file :
 32%/46%/43%/45%/52%/30%/42%/51%/47%/44%/32%/51%/36%/35%/57%/31%/37%/48%/24%/54%/38%/31%/56%/32%/37%/50%/27%/48%/38%/30%/...
 And so on... The server process does never go under 20% and the Touch
 is constantly rebuffering
 
 1.2) With a 16/44.1 file :
 29%/50%/56%/28%/2%/2%/1%/1%/1%/1%/2%/2%/1%/...
 
 2) When using the USB stick :
 2.1) With a 24/96 file :
 17%/12%/5%/4%/5%/4%/4%/...
 And no rebuffering problem ...
 
 2.2) With a 16/44.1 file :
 23%/4%/2%/1%/2%/1%/...
 
 A little precision : for tests 1.1) and 2.1), I was always starting
 from scratch (Touch unplugged, USB device unplugged), and then I waited
 until the re-analysis of the files on the USB device was completed.
 Tests 1.2) and 2.2) were done immediately after tests 1.1) and 2.1),
 without turning off the Touch.
 
 Do you think that the problem could come from the great number of files
 on the HDD ? If you think it would be useful, I could make a test where
 I erase the contents of the HDD (I have a complete backup on its HFS
 formatted twin), and try the HDD with only the same couple of files as
 on the USB stick. What do you think ?
 
 Anyway, thank you very much for your time.

What file-system and block size are you using on the HDD? I see that
the twin is HFS formatted, but you don't explicitly say the one you
used is HFS. I think this is probably more relevant than the number of
files. Same questions for the USB stick.

Steve.

 I haven't ordered from logitech, only gotten a warranty part once (which

 from amazon (not a private seller, actually amazon) and got 3 day

 took 3 days. I've never gotten overnight shipping, even when I pay for
 it.

Wow, my experience is the exact opposite. I buy a lot of stuff from
Amazon, both direct and from their sellers. I almost always get a
shipping notice the same day, sometimes in just a couple of hours. I do
have Amazon Prime which gives me free 2 day shipping, but I don't know
whether that makes the delay before shipping any shorter.

 I think the Amazon Prime might play a factor.  I have similar experience
 to Fred with Amazon.  Ridiculously slow at getting the product out of
 the warehouse.  I actually considered getting a Prime account except my
 experience with normal orders was horrible.  A friend has a Prime
 account and loves it, but I do not want to Pay just to get the same
 service I get for free elsewhere.

Getting free 2 day shipping easily covers the Prime membership for me.
I also like that I can upgrade to 1 day shipping for $3.99. Last week I
ordered a 32GB SDHC card on Monday morning with 1 day shipping and it
arrived Tuesday lunchtime.

Yup, I see exactly the same thing. I'm running my Touch without a
network connection. Both the onscreen and the remote power buttons are
ignored. I haven't tried it while playing music but at any other time
there's no change to the screen that's being displayed. 

Can't test any more, the Touch is packed away for its trip to the

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Help Buying 2.5 External Drive

2010-04-13 Thread SteveEast

I've just been trying a couple of older WD Passport drives - a 160GB and
a 60GB. I did manage to get the 160GB to connect, scan and play music -
once. But after I rebooted the Touch the drive then went into what
looked like a continuous power up/down cycle - no matter what I did.
The 60 never worked at all.

I've also tried a couple of small (1GB, 2GB) USB memory sticks and they
work fine.

I think you have to look at all P1 bugs targeted for 7.5.0 since the

I assume you can swap SD cards but I don't know the mechanism. Each SD
card would probably replace the previous one in terms of database
content. SDHC cards go up to 32GB at the moment I believe, so you can
get a decent amount of high-quality MP3 on one. Or you could use a 1TB
Passport USB portable disk if you want to get serious!

Dunno about a battery Touch. Spotting market opportunities has never
