[slim] changing server IP on squeezebox remotely

2006-10-11 Thread bglad
that there might be a way to do this by sending a UDP packet - but that page refers to a SLIMP3. Does that protocol still apply to newer squeezebox 2/3 devices? (I have access to a PC on the same subnet as the squeezebox, from which i could send such a packet.) any tips much apprd... thanks ben -- bglad

how about an enhancement to turn off the display a minute after you've set the sleep function? from that state, hitting any key should reactivate the display -- bglad bglad's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com

Dell 400MHz PII, 384 MB ram, fedora core 4, slim 6.2 16000 songs and 3 squeezeboxes - rescanning takes half a day and web pages are slow but usable, otherwise works fine and handles aac conversions and alienbbc happily -- bglad

fits one thing concerns me whatever the architecture - rescanning for new music flogs the server... they'll want a 24/7 music service and to frequently add the latest cds - is there any way to lessen the load of rescans? thanks again ben -- bglad

@stuart - what format should we ask for? i've felt the pain of mplayer real, but how should they be streaming? does mp3 work for this? @radish - so we need a single xml feed listing all podcasts ( 'listen again' shows) ? -- bglad
