I understand the options for this are limited, but at the moment I
cannot find ANY optiosn to confgiure the TinySC scanner. Are there
any?
At the moment it does not seem to be reading tags well at all.

This new radio has changed my style of life. I hardly even watch T.V.
anymore which is saying a lot for a guy like me. I can only imagine
what the next few years is going to bring as far as apps and upgrades.
One thing is for sure, now that I have wi-fi radio I will never go

I'm trying to decide between the Touch and Duet. What are the
fundamental differences I should know about them (aside from the
location of displays) ?
They are almost the same price on Amazon.
I am interested in using Squeezebox primarily to play classical
recordings with maximum fidelity.

Are you saying that aside from price (which is negligible at least at
Amazon) there are features on the Touch that I would not have on the
Duet? Please advise. Thanks.

Unless you really want the fancy handset, the controller, there is no
reason at all not to get the Touch. In other words, the Touch is better
at everything else but the remote/controller.

as a controller. Pe

Well it seems I have v1 of TinySC in my Touch, running the latest stable
7.5 build (http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/TinySC).
It seems v2 of tiny SC will provide the features I need, but i can't
find any reference to it anywhere but on that wiki page. Anyone know?
Does 7.6 include TinySC v2

This is not too surprising if you are just directly connecting the

A SB Touch gives pretty astonishing sound quality when used with good
amplifier and speakers.
Check out the Amazon.com customer review distribution on both products,
and I think you will detect a higher satisfaction rate with the Touch
than the Duet.

I'm having some problems with this. I tried setting what I thought
+1 for the touch.
I have both and do find that the touch is less prone to technical
foibles.
The controller on the duet is nice however as you will read in a few
posts the screen can dim over time and mine is now only readable in
very low light conditions.
