That's the thing, isn't it? There are so many different ways to use SBs that one person's use model is different from the next. Anyway, tonight I got TinySBS going on the Touch, and then connected it to mysb.com. As I expected, I don't see any way whatsoever to configure TinySBS from mysb, at le

It's my mistake, I have never tried setting all the audio etc parameters through the standard display / remote. I have always used the WebUI, therefore wrongly assumed with the loss of direct WebUI in TinySC, that it would be surplanted by the MySqueezebox.com Player WebUI. Sorry for the confusi

I'm not clear on your point. Configuration of audio settings, screensaver, etc has always been possible directly on the SB3/Classic, Boom, etc. by using the IR remote or front panel controls. Similarly, they can be set via SBC, or the equivalent on the SB Touch or SB Radio. What you will not have

Surely if Tiny SC is serving SB3 /Boom type players, all the audio settings will have to created, stored and done, the 'dumb 'slim players can't know /do anything? Dave -- DaveWr DaveWr's Profile: http://forums.slimdevice

Also, remember that there's a lot less to configure when there is no web ui, no plugins, and no transcoding. And the player configuration that is available under Settings on regular SBS (crossfade, volume adjustment, screensavers, etc) will be done on the players. That still leaves some important

Thanks for that. Its probably a timing / effort thing. At the present time I suppose the focus is on delivery, not complicating the features. Dave -- DaveWr DaveWr's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?use

I'll choose answer (d): I'm not sure. My understanding from what I read and my fairly limited testing of TinySBS is that the SBT itself is the main means of configuring TinySBS. But to be honest I've never tried configuring TinySBS from mysb.com. I'll give it a try tonight or tomorrow. In the long

I understood you can configure TinySC from MySqueezebox.com. Or can't you fully synchronize the settings? You obviously have to set the Touch basic networking parameters + logon details, then you should be able to use MySB for most of the detail config. Right, wrong or sort of? ;-) Dave --

The SB Touch does not work with SC 7.3. At present it mostly works with 7.4.x, but when the SB Touch is released there will be a new software release (7.5) and that will be the recommended version of SB Touch. If you want to use Touch's built-in server software you will have to use 7.5. -- aubu

Hi, I would like buying touch squeezebox (when it will be out, here in Italy), but i need to know some info. I don't want to update to 7.4 SC because now everything is working with my squeezebox system (boom, duet and classical), so could i use touch sb with 7.3 software? Or should i install 7.4?

Assuming your Touch will have access to the internet via your LAN, then you will be able to configure, and remote control via MySqueezebox.com website. You will have to register at the website first obviously, but then it should be plain sailing. Dave -- DaveWr ---

I'm hoping that someone can advise. At the moment, I plan to use a Touch as a standalone device, i.e. connect it to an external USB drive which will host my music collection, then via SPDIF into my amp. The Touch will be able to see my network, but I don't plan to stream any music over the networ
