Touch units appear to be working OK for a few days now. The remaining
issue is getting into mysqueezebox.com. Michael is baffled and will look
more next week. When logging into my ATT router which I have done
countless times where do I find the channel it is using ?

Now I have some questions

1. What  programs would tell me what neighbors are using and what
channel ?

2. How do I tell what channel my router is using ?

3. Currently I have AT&T DSL service w a Motorola NVG510 router. If I
were to look for a new router is there a site I can use to compare how
powerful other ones might be.

Still OK now just want to be smarter. Thanks again

Michael I apologize for being a PIA. I continue to have problems logging
in to mysqueezebox.com. I have tried numerous times to reset my password
and the system says that they have sent an email to me but it never
comes. Can you help ? Thanks.

I also have problems getting my 2 Touch units connected to a Win 10 PC
via wifi to connect reliably. Everything used to work fine and in all of
the attempts to fix things I am sure I goofed something up. I have done
pc router shutdowns and resets. I have done numerous factory resets on
the units themselves. Sometimes a unit will connect to my network but
not my computer. Awhile ago I got the unit furthest away from the router
to "play" It played for a bit and then cut out. Everything worked fine
for years but I fear I screwed it up.

What can I do ?

Shut down my PC running LMS and my router for wifi and pulled the power
from one Touch. I let everything sit for better than 30 minutes.
Restarted router and did a reset. Went and reconnected power to the
Touch unit that had been disconnected. Success it worked. I turned on
the stereo and heard music. A short while later I went to the unit which
power I had not disconnected and I was able to get to normal screens.
Did not turn on that stereo but it appears OK. 

My guess is leaving the router off for a long period of time was the
solution and not the router reset - I had previously done that. At any
rate it appears that I have this great system back and running ! Yipee
!

I thank all of you for your thoughts, suggestions etc. You are the best

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Running LMS on Touch

2015-11-30 Thread dasmueller

I do not think there is anything definitive on this topic. There are
just too many variables within any given library. 

I ran my Touch that way for about a year. My attached drive probably had
in the neighborhood of 20K tracks at that point. Nothing but problems
and any time the Touch was powered off it had to rescan the entire
library. Nothing but headaches. Attaching the HDD w the library to a PC
running LMS just works and works well. I would never go back to the way
you are trying to use it.

(Robert Cray Band, Robert Cray Band, The) This still looks like a
tagging issue. Check the Artist and Album/Artist tags and compare them
to the albums that show how you want them to. Alternately copy the
Artist tag from the albums that show how you want them to and paste into
the ones showing "incorrectly"

If you were to give more info on your setup someone might be able to
help resolve your issue.

Did you change anything at all before the problem started ?

You speak of having problems listening to your music which to me sounds
like your local music library and not internet radio. That being the
case it sounds like a wi-fi issue or something similar.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Goodbye!

2014-02-01 Thread dasmueller

Sorry your Squeezebox experience was less than what you wanted it to be.
Hopefully Sonos will provide what you want. The desire to appear to be
tech savvy or requiring it to use something is a unique mindset from my
perspective, although I am sure there are those to whom that does hold
an attraction.

I think that Logitech developed a system that has great capabilities.
The greater the capabilities the greater the complexity and the room for
problems to arise. I would guess that I use less of the capabilities
than many-few plugins etc. I for one enjoy working through some of the
issues that have arisen with my use. Those I might add were due to
external hardware-routers rather than the Touches I own themselves. Many
others might not feel that way and I understand that. 

Logitech dropped the Squeezebox line and promoted their new UE line
which may resolve some of the frustrations for some people. From my
perspective they went too far in the other direction from the original
Squeezebox concept. Perhaps a stripped down and vigorously tested
version of SBS/LMS might have made many folks happy.

Who knows. I still love the ones I have !

The Diagnostics Tab I was referring to is found on LMS on your computer.
I used to run my Touch w the HDD directly attached but switched to a

I assume you are using an external HHD directly attached to the USB port
of the Touch to play local music files stored on the HDD  ?  What I
would try is to press in the tiny pin on the back of the Touch which
will then bring up a screen telling you Factory Settings have been
restored. Then go through the setup process. Hope this helps. In the
long run you would probably be much happier w setting up a network and
having your HDD attached to a PC much more stable that way.

it was a real pain to add files. Others have commented that it can be
done w/o issues but I am a luddite. If you want to/insist on running w
the HDD attached to the Touch you might try downgrading to SBS 7.5.3. It
can be found here-

[SlimDevices: Touch] I am baffled

2012-10-10 Thread dasmueller

I have 2 Squeezebox Touches connected via wifi to a PC on the 2nd floor
w LMS 7.7.1-r33750. One Touch is on the 1st floor and one in the
basement. Yesterday I was having trouble getting the Touch on the 1st
floor to play local music or internet radio. The one in the basement w
the wireless signal passing through floors and a concrete wall was fine.
I turned off LMS,PC, modem and router and rebooted several times w no
success.  Did several factoryt resets. After several rounds of all this
I finally got the 1st floor machine to play.  At various points in this
process the LMS control panel information showed no players recognized,
then 1 player recognized. Somehow I finally got it to show 2 players
recognized. The odd thing is that the player in the basement farthest
from the PC and router shows a signal strength of 43% and the player on
the 1st floor closer to the PC and router shows no signal strength. Any
ideas as to what is going on/what I need to fix ?

The other thing I noticed yesterday was when trying to scroll through
artists several times the scrolling on the 1st floor player zoomed
through letters like it was on steroids. I have never seen this behavior
before.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] SB Touch "music folder" access very slow

2012-09-01 Thread dasmueller

If you correctly tag your files life will be so much better. As garym
suggested try using mp3tag to batch correct your current tags.  Prior to
doing so make a copy/backup and keep that just in case. Your library is
fairly small compared to many of the other forum users so it may not be
too painful.  You might want to try a small portion of your library as a
test. Point LMS at it w your current tags and then after correction
point LMS at the corrected files/folders and note the change in
performance.

At any rate, good luck, and glad you posted over here.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Squeebox Touch: tagging wav & flac files; conversion of wav to flac; rip CDs to flac

2012-05-28 Thread dasmueller

You will find that most people here are advocates of FLAC as a file
format. It is lossless and takes up less space on your drive. Wav does
not have good support for tagging.
The two software applications people prefer for ripping are Eac and
Dbpoweramp.  Eac is free, Dbpoweramp is not free. I use Eac and it works
fine. I have not used Dbpoweramp but there are many advocates. I believe
it may have more features than Eac. I would suggest looking at both and
deciding from there.

OP wants to use the Touch and Tiny LMS not with a server. When I got my
1st Touch that is how I used it. I had approx 18K files mostly FLAC
along w some Mp3s. Approx. 1/3 had embedded artwork as well as a
cover.jpg file in the album folder. I used a Toshiba Canvio 2.0 1TB HDD
and SBS 7.5.3. It worked. The only reason I changed to using a network
was ease of adding new files. It of course now scans much faster.  I
have since updated to LMS 7.7.1 and it works fine.

http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?82070-Touch-with-USB-drive-mastering-TinySB
- this is an extensive thread he might look at for help. 

I again say that having an artist folder is not necessary if all albums
are tagged the same in the artist field they will show up together when
doing a search by artist. Having an artist folder is adding another
layer for the scan to go through.

Can you see the missing albums using the web interface of LMS on your
laptop ?  If so, check the tags of the ones that do not appear versus
the ones that do appear on the Touch.  What version of LMS are you

As John Swenson stated you should haver one album per folder. There is
no need to have all Grateful Dead albums in one folder, this just adds
another layer for Tiny LMS to work through. As long as the artist
tagging you use is identical for each album they will all show up under
the same name when navigating to what you want to listen to.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] USB HDD with SB Touch

2012-04-17 Thread dasmueller

Use of a HDD without its own power supply directly to the Touch is not
recommended. From what I recall the issue was the amount of power it
might draw would cause the Touch to not function. That being said when I
1st got mine in 2010 I used a Toshiba Canvio 2.0 drive which does not
have a power adapter and it worked fine.  The only reason I switched to
having a network w the HDD w my music attached to my PC was increased
functionality and ease of use. If you remove a drive that is directly
attached to the Touch and then reattach it rescans the entire library
which is a PIA. There is no reliable list of what model wo its own power
adapterworks and which does not because there are too many variables
that may be encountered.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] New SBT Owner - Trouble with playlist

2012-03-23 Thread dasmueller

It sounds as if you have your HDD connected directly to the Touch ? LMS
is installed on the HDD ? If so, turning off the Touch and restarting
it will cause it to rescan your music library.

You mention it is connected via wi-fi to your home network. Given that
you have a home network it will all function more easily and you will
have more options as well if you attach your HDD to your computer and
install LMS on that. In this situation you would open the control
panel, in the status window there are buttons for rescanning.

Let us know your progress and welcome to the forum !

To clear the cache you go to the Advanced tab on The LMS Control Panel.
It is down near the bottom. From my experience it will then rescan your
entire library as well.

Not so, I did not mean to imply that it will not work, just that it is

It is a wonderful unit and I hope you enjoy many hours of listening with

then bought a router and set up a simple network w the drive now

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Tiny/Logitech server - router? Why?

2012-02-08 Thread dasmueller

I am trying to understand this but am not sure I am getting it. You have
a network setup that you choose to shutdown for periods of time, perhaps
to save electricity ?  You have your HDD w music files attached to the
Touch itself and want to use it wo turning on your router/network.I am
at a bit of a loss because when I was running w the drive attached
directly to the Touch I did not have a network/router.

What steps are you following on the Touch to access your library?

What version of the server SBS?LMS are you running ?

If you can provide more info perhaps someone here will be able to
figure out your issue.

You might do a search for local music service stopped here as there are
threads relating to it.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Western Digital Exteral Hard-Drive Compatability

2012-02-08 Thread dasmueller

You might look at this
link-http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/USB_Compatibility
Some of what is listed works, some do not.  People making these drives
are constantly coming out w new models which makes it difficult to
develop a list of what works and keep it up to date. I would recommend
you get your drive locally and check on exchange policy in case you
have issues.

I used a Toshiba Canvio 2.0 1TB drive this way for about nine months. I
was running SBS 7.5.3. It had approx 18K FLAC files on it at the time.
Approx 1/2 of these had imbedded artwork max size 150 x 150. I switched
to wifi because adding files was a pain in that each time I added files
I disconnected the drive and then had to do a complete rescan. If you
go the route you speak of leave the Touch powered on. Otherwise you are
probably going to do a rescan. Make sure you have a 2nd drive as a
backup for WHEN the primary one dies. 

Another link worth looking
at-http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Squeezebox_Touch_as_a_Home_Music_Server

The one Toby 10 mentioned is a very good source of info as well.

It appears you can determine which file Tiny SBS is crashing on ?  If
so, I would suggest you move that file off that drive and see if you
can complete a full rescan. If that scan works then the file causing
the problem needs to be looked at. Post as much detailed info about it
as possible so folks here can see if something jumps out at them.

I ran Tiny SC w SBS 7.5.3 for about a yr until I decided to get a
router and go wifi. Updated to 7.7.1 a few months back and have had no
issues. Scans are a lot faster and no more issues w reconnecting after
PC restarts like I had w 7.5.3. 7.7.2 I believe is still in the beta
stage so if you decide to update you may want to use 7.7.1.

It is odd that when you run wifi there is no issue. Something in a file
or files that Tiny SC is not liking.

You need to provide details of your setup-operating system etc.  What
are you playing when the system "crashes"-local music files or internet
radio, are you connected to mysqueezebox.com when it crashes, where are
your files stored-locally or on a NAS unit, what version of the
software are you using, do log files show issues thaat can be looked
at?

There are many here who will try to help you, but they need more info
from you to know where to start. Once you get things sorted out stick

[SlimDevices: Touch] Confused and looking for hep

2012-01-05 Thread dasmueller

I have 2 Touchs connected wirelessly w my library connected to my
Windows 7 pc on a portable drive w LMS 7.7.1. Tonight 1 of the 2 would
when navigating to Artist, Album and selecting the 1st track only play
that track as if I was attempting to create a playlist-I get a + in the
upper right corner of the screen. If I were to use the touchscreen and
select the album instead of the next step of going to the tracklist I
get a black screen w an option to play and it appears to play the
entire album when that option is selected. On the other unit if I
navigate to the tracklisting and select the 1st track it appears that
it will play the entire album which is the way both units were behaving
before tonight.I have tried removing power, and factory reset on the 1st
unit and still get the appearance of trying to develop a playlist.
Possibly a setting of some sort but am baffled.  Any ideas would be
appreciated.

Will also post to the official forum.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] WAV or FLAC

2011-12-23 Thread dasmueller

To give you an idea of file size differences between FLAC and WAV, this
morning I checked this as my son asked about it last night. For a
single album Wav was 663 MB, FLAC compression level 5 314 MB. mp3 at
192kps was 90.1 MB. The big advantage of FLAC over WAV is hard drive
usage space and as others have mentioned tag support.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] best cover size for squeezebox touch?

2011-12-19 Thread dasmueller

I seem to recall that when I researching the Touch it was advised to not
have artwork larger than 150 x 150 pixels if running it using Tiny SC.
That is what I did and had no issues such as you describe.

"Please tell me how you got the Touch to "play nicely" with your usb
hard drive.

I have a 500 gig Maxtor, and have not managed to get them to work
properly together yet!"

I am not familiar w this drive but it is recommended that one use a USB
drive w a power adapter rather than self-powered. That being said I used
a Toshiba Canvio 2.0 1TB drive w Tiny SC and had no issues w
approximately 18K Flac files w embedded artwork.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch with USB drive : mastering TinySB

2011-12-05 Thread dasmueller

"Now to try sixteen thousand tracks off a USB drive. Fingers crossed. It
might take all night to scan that."

I used to run my Touch this way w a 1TB Toshiba Canvio portable drive.
It ran fine though updating the database and rescanning was a pain. I
was unaware of the Samba thing and not sure how good I would be at
implementing it anyway. I then got a router and set up a network. Works
like a charm.

I had approx 18K FLAC files w imbedded artwork (150 x 150 pixels or
less)
Scan took about 45min to 1 hr. I was using and still am using SBS
7.5.3. From what I understand the newer versions scan quicker but am
not sure how that might be affected by Tiny SBS.

Keep on enjoying !!
