I am assuming your SB actually works. I've never seen this with my own eyes, but I've heard from others that it is possible. The SB3 I ordered (and returned) was not responsive and very frustrating to use. Now if your SB3 seriously really works without failure, and you feel confident about its per

As far as I know this is a simple reading of the time stamps of the files in the database and the display of these in a sorted by date list. The only change you can make to it is to increase or decrease the number of items which are listed - look at Server Settings | Behavior | New Music Limit. I

Re: [slim] Entering WPA Password via Web Interface

Wasting time with a crazy idea... maybe this wouldn't be an issue if the SB3 firmware searched for a configuration server after a reset. It would also be helpful if the SB3 firmware supported domain names. If when reset the SB3 were to search for a couple pre-defined domain names and/or IP address
