Hi there,
Is there an easy way to clear the playlist from the remote. It's pretty
easy to do so from the web interface, but often when I start the SB2, it
still has an old playlist in there.
What button do you press to clear all songs from the current playlist
so one can start from scratch?
Che
What I usually do is just browse to what I want to hear and hit
"Play", that effectively clears the old list and creates a new one
with what I just picked.
There's another way, which from distant memory is hold "add" while
"Now Playing" is showing. But just starting a new one with "Play"
seems

I believe MultiTask computing are expecting another shipment next week

Anyone know how to start the slimserver as a server and not have to

You can just run slim.exe (in the 'server' subdirectory) from the

I am really surprised that the SB2 doesn't have a simple button on the

I think if you had a universal remote, you could program a macro to do it.
I think the consensus is that, when you power on, it will be paused.
If at that point you just ignore the current playlist and go find what
you're looking to hear, and press 'Play' that's all you have to do.

Andrew, for this to work you need to enter a "," in the "Multiple
Items In Tags" field under "Behavior" in "Sever Settings" I would not
recommend using a "," though as it is a common character in tags. I
use a bullet "•" myself. Some peolpe have mentioned using "+" and the
description in SlimServer

Until it will not go back any more. Then scroll to the now playing and
press the + button and it will clear the current play list. I'm pretty
sure you have to use the back arrow and not the now playing button for
this to work.
