[slim] Fast Forward Problem

Dear all, I am running a Qnap TS101 and wirelessly feeding my squeezebox (ver 6.3.1)with audio. Everything is fine but I cannot get it to fast forward or rewind by holding the appropriate button down as per the manual. Is this a prob with wireless or a bug? any suggestions would be welcome. --

Re: [slim] Fast Forward Problem

Yes, .WMA is transcoded on 6.3.1, not native. So unfortunately you won't be able to fast-forward .WMA. However I believe .WMA (lossy) was added to SlimServer 6.5.0 and later. .WMA lossless is always transcoded though. Transcoded means the server is changing it to something else the SB can

The slashes go the other way on Windows. Why? For arcane reasons, DOS used / as an option separator. (Like dir /w I think worked.) So the / was taken when DOS3.0 came out so they use backslashes for directory separators. -- snarlydwarf
