I'm not a particular fan of itunes (too bloated, particularly over the
last few years), but I have to say it doesn't cause me any of the
problems some folks associate with it. I use it strictly for loading up
files on my ipods & iphones. I play music on my computer with

I got myself a Touch earlier this year and it is great but I really,

just to try it out but hated the way it took over my computer and I

meantime. Unfortunatel
H. Odd. I use itunes, and have for 5 or 6 years, for managing my

tracks), and have never seen an artwork file inside a folder. All the

embedded in file). Not to

It does. For some strange reason it still seems to sometimes put files
there. I always blames Windows but now on my MacBook it's the same and
there nothing but iTunes and SBS accesses my music an no, I don't have

My folder structure is very simple to allow slimserver to do things
quickly:
- Artist
- Album
- title.mp3
- folder.jpg
You don't want to know what itunes made out of it and the tags.
slimserver got way confused after a re-scan :)

Hi david,
thanks for your advice! But I just found out that it's much easier than
that!
On QNAP NAS devices SSOTS is used to get SbS up and running. To install
plugins you just have to create a folder named "Plugins" in the Public
directory of your QNAP and unzip the desired plugin (e.g. "Other

It sucks so much that it _can_ mess up artwork if you don't follow a

Hello.
I've had squeezeboxes for many years now and other mobile MP3 players

Most internet radio sources stream at a quality level that is rather
undemanding of bandwidth. I don't know that much about it, but I can't
imagine that prioritizing internet radio as among competing uses is
going to do much.
What problem(s) are you experiencing that you think this will cure?
Not sure if it helps, but fiddling around with logging (Mac OS X server)
I've found the following:

Thanks - in this case it's mainly Capital FM London that I listen to.
Is there any easy way to confirm which port is used? Does this show up
in server logs at all?
As an aside, I don't support there would be any issue with just
prioritising port 80 as it would also cover any browsing I happen t
The port used to fetch Internet radio will be entirely dependant on the
radio stream you are listening to, though most of them are likely to be
port 80.

Hi,
I've upgraded my router this week to a model that happens to support
QoS. In particular it can prioritise by Application (which appears to
be identified by what ports it uses), MAC address, or ethernet port.
I'm wondering if I can define internet radio by what ports are used,
and set this a

If you use the Touch as a server you'll lose a number of formats, too:
AAC, ALAC, maybe WMA as well.
Those formats need to be transcoded to be played on the SB3 which the
server on the Touch can't do.
BTW, there is no difference between the SB3 and Duet functionality in
this respect.

I have a SB Touch in my listening room using a SBS running on a

for other zones. Other than 24/96 is there any other loss of

Currently I have no such plans.
If Windows Phone turns out to be a big success I might change my mind
but in any case this would be quite a big development and one I almost
certainly would not do myself, Windows is too different from iOS, even
if I don't really know the Windows Phone environment.
This looks like a great app. Just wondering, are there any plans to port
this to Windows Phone 7?
I'd really like to be able to use my Windows Phone 7 to type in the
names of artists I want to search in Spotify for on my Squeezebox Duet
and Boom devices...happy to pay good money for it too!
