Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] ROON/ROCK to SBT via USB
Yes, control from ROON works well.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] ROON/ROCK to SBT via USB
Thanks for your reply. What you describe is how I have it connected now. For some reason, I don't have the same screen control I have with SBT connected to LMS. Since both devices sit next to each other I thought I just connect via USB and control everything from the ROON interface. I suspect you're are correct, USB cannot be used for input. paltomare's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2062 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108503 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] IR sensor ALMOST dead - any cure?
Glad I found this thread. My Touch stopped responding to IR input a year or so ago. I assumed it was a dead IR receiver but thought I'd give a new power supply a try after reading this thread. Just hooked it up to a new IFI iPower and it worked like a charm. I admit I had my doubts but I'm very happy to have remote control back.

[SlimDevices: Touch] Simple Operation Advice
Need some advice for setting up a Touch for very basic operation. I bought one for my mom to stream one or two radio stations, and listen to her music which I have put on an SD card. I currently have the radio stations as favorites on MySB.com which play on startup via a harmony remote macro. Is there a way to have the option to play her local music from the main Touch screen without having to switch libraries? Would it work to have .pls files for the streaming stations stored on the SD card as playlist files along with the music files so she is not switching libraries. Ideally, the option to choose from a favorite station and her music from the same home screen is what I am trying to achieve.

Just placed an order today at 11:53a PST and got both discounts. I had gone as far as placing one in my cart yesterday at work then decided to wait to see if my brother wanted one. By the time I got home the offer expired. When I came back to work today, the discount price must have been cached in my browser somehow so I placed the order and it went through, I called them and confirmed it went through. If it worked for me it might work for others! They wouldn't offer me a credit for the full price pre-orderd one I bought though and said the offer expired on 4/13. I still feel it's a rotten thing to do those who pre-ordered.

[SlimDevices: Touch] A Touch a Buffalo and a Nano
Been using my faithful SB1-original version at home for many years now waitng for the Touch to come along. I have three questions hopefully someone can answer. First, can the Touch play and display songs directly from an Ipod (mass storage mode) connected to the Touch's USB port? I suspect the answer is yes but have not seen this discussed yet. Second, can the Touch play and display songs from a NAS (Buffalo drive) connected through a switch to its ethernet port without running SC on a PC? The advantage to this is that I could burn songs to the Buffalo and mirror the Buffalo with a PC but not need the PC to play the songs. Third, will we still need to manually switch between SC and SN or will the Touch handle playing internet streams and local music more seamlessly.
