well, if you can handle uncompressed over your wireless setup, or have it wired,
then SB1 will be less intense as far as CPU since it only uncompresses without
having to compress back

What will that do? Will it just cause the SB2 to behave as it did when
I first took it out of the box?
For a long time now I've had problems with the web interface and
Firefox. It would repeatedly hang, being unable to load new pages.
I've now managed to track the cause of this problem down - I had
pipelining enabled in Firefox. I turned off pipelining
(network.http.pipelining), restarted Firefo
OK, so how do I turn off pipelining?

From 6.0 onwards it has been possible to set the smoothness of scrolling text
on a graphics player, SBG or SB2
[player web page - display: set shorter Scroll Rate & and smaller Scroll Pixels]
As of 6.1, setting this to quite slow values including moving one pixel at a time should have minimal p
I also believe that native formats like FLAC on the SB2 allow for fast
forwarding and rewinding while non native formats that need trans
coding do not. That is a HUGE advantage to me.

Unless you have the players synced. Then they will both get the lowest
common denominator. In this case it would be WAV.

It's worth noting that pipelining is disabled by default in Firefox and
Mozilla as it can cause problems with some web servers. As it's a
hidden pref in Firefox, it won't be on unless you deliberately turned
it on. SlimServer is the fi

And you have to mount it manually, this is not done automatically.
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
should do the job.

Yes at present the display data continues to be sent to the player even if brightness is 0 - its simply that the player doesn't
display it.
Perhaps you could raise a bug to record it as an enhancement request (though I am not sure of the simplet way of dealing with it at
present.)

That's an interesting comment. Both formats are lossless, and by

After recently buying an SB2, I moved the old SB1 and tried to run it

It would find the wireless network, find the server, say it was

I just downloaded the latest beta version of SlimServer to be able to

of the various "Browse..." menu items has changed.
