SO... I turn on my SB Radio this morning and get a notice about a software update! My Radio is using MySqueezebox (it's at work, and I'm not installing SBS on my computer)... Anyone know what bugs this software update fixes before I go applying it? :) -- virgiliomi

[SlimDevices: Radio] But I *want* the external speakers for alarm!

2010-11-09 Thread rleibman
OK... I read through some of the postings here and it seems that *by design* the alarm will use the internal speaker for output, I guess people using headphones at night want to make sure they wake up in the morning. But I don't use headphones, I use powered speakers, and I really like my music

Never mind... just missed the announcement at the top of the forum. It's too bad that Rhapsody is the only thing changed in the new version... unless there are other changes that just haven't been detailed. -- virgiliomi

Another solution would be to buy a Boom (it has stereo) or use an SB3, Receiver, or Touch with the powered speakers. Also I am not saying it can't be done using SSH, somebody on the Forum can probably make that happen if its possible. PS Most of us on the Forum have two ears also. -- iPhone

I don't want to buy yet another device, I love the format of the radio to have at my bedside, I like the snooze button, the well thought out interface, etc. It really is close to the perfect device I want, except for the speaker, which I really don't like how it sounds (I hope I've made that

I updated my Radio this morning. Upon rebooting it reconnected to my network and server right away, all of my applets and patches on the Radio remained installed, presets were what they were supposed to be, etc. Basically no hassles here. Upgrade to the Touch was similarly smooth. -- aubuti

I got a prompt for an update, said yes and the update ran. Then I thought I'd test one of the new BBC HD programs and the box froze and ended up going into a reboot, freeze, reboot cycle. I ended up taking the battery out and then plugging it back into the mains at which point it settled down.

Thanks! Since you were able to retreive the url to the artwork file, can you offer any insight into how this happens? For example: 1. RadioTime station is selected on radio. 2. Radio contacts RadioTime which does a lookup for the station. 3. It then sends the user's radio two bits of
