Re: [slim] SB far too expensive?

I think part of the question relates to peoples perception that the SqueezeBox range has more to do with computers that audio hardware. Probably because you need a computer of some description and the core users are from a computing background. When you compare the price of a SB3 (for example) to

I am an XM subscriber. Recently it seems that XM and Sirius have combines since I now receive all the Sirius channels in my car. My question: Is this also true on the internet? Will I now be able to get Sirius-XM on the Squeezenetwork? If not, then why not? Confused. -- lreinstein -

[slim] Better artwork caching

I'm running my SqueezeCenter on a *low power NAS* (QNAP TS-109) and I have noticed one possibility about how to increase SqueezeCenters performance. Currently Artwork thumbnails are cached in one small size only, so SqueezeCenters has two files - original and downscaled copy. The problems is tha

Hi alltogether, thanks for the Howto. I figured this out by myself. My Slimserver 7.3.2 on Ubuntu works fine and the stream.mp3 is reachable via a winamp applikation from within the same WLAN subnet as the Nokia E71. I tried to connect to a manually added Station via the Internet Radio Applika

Hi, my Duet can sync just fine between the receiver and the controller. But as soon as I add an MP3 based player (like my Computer using iTunes) the hardware players stop. Syncing between other MP3 streams works (e.g. iTunes and Noxon) but the receiver won't play as soon as an MP3 stream is invol
