Pippin, thanks for sharing your algorithm. Mine's a straighforward linear/proportional model based on the N/100 volume level -- when a player joins a sync group, I note each player's volume. When any volume changes, I calculate the new / original ratio, calculate new volumes for sync peers, and ch

What's the algorithm you use for the proportional changes? I found simple proportional volume change to be a bit problematic for extreme values so here's what iPeng does: 1. Extend volume range beyond 100 to avoid cliping for loud players. So interally it will handle volumes >100 for individual pl

My radio updated and was a bit concerned at first because I couldn't seem to turn it off - at least didn't appear to turn off as in the off state I display the custom clock screen saver. It appears, however, that after the update my applets needed to be re-installed... since the custom clock appl

I am unable to connect to my home server via IP from the radio. I have port 9000 (TCP) and 3483 (TCP and UDP) properly forwarded from my home server, and I can hit the Squeezebox Server web interface via the IP @ 9000. The Squeezebox radio is getting an IP at the remote location and can connect

I think that the bottom line here is that if the device is supposed to support WEP then it needs to. Logitech should be trying to gather data from him in an attempt to get this working. Just because it's an old protocol that is easily hacked doesn't mean that they should only make a 1/2 effort t

Since WEP is beyond useless (false sense of security), I personally would turn off wireless security and deal with it in other ways. Even if you are using WEP, you probably should: * Assume all connections can be snooped * Turn on access based on "MAC address" (forgeable, but keeps random drifte

Yep, there's a heap of issues with alarm reliability and the handling of the MYSB connection. Unfortunately none of them was fixed in the last two months and chances are low that they will be fixed soon. Next software release (7.5) is probably mid/end of January when the Touch is finally released.

Can you let me know if you get WEP working? I can't connect with a 128bit (13 Hex) WEP code. Every other computer in my house connects just fine but not my Squeezebox (the older WEP only wireless model). I wonder if there's a firmware upgrade that lets these older models use WPA? dklingner;4969
