Re: [slim] Time/Date Format in 6.5.2

Well, whether something was changed in the update depends on how exactly it is that you managed to do (with 6.5.1) something that people think you shouldn't have been able to! So lets try focussing on that. First, do you still have the 6.5.1 installation or have you wiped it out? If the

Hi, since 2 days I have three SBs. Yesterday I synchronized two of them. At the beginning everything was fine but after about 15 min I noticed some sort of echo. Thirty minutes later they had a difference of about 1-2 seconds. I paused several times but that did not help. I just tried it

Are you playing individual tracks or internet radio? Internet radio will drift out of sync sooner or later, but slimserver should re-sync at the beginning of each track. Are you running wired or wireless? Wireless can be harder to sync because of interference from other devices, although again,

Re: [slim] Streaming CD Content

Especially if you have multiple SBs, you'll enjoy them a lot more if you rip them to a lossless format and stream them using slimserver. I dare say that for 99.3% of users(*) that is the main point of having a SqueezeBox. And far better than some kludge to get your CD player to stream to the SB.
