Nuffin, except I get the 'egg timer' for about a second - bloody
computers, I 'ate 'em!! ;-) . I didn't get any desktop shortcut option
so going via 'Start' is the only option.

Go to START, start the cropper program. Then in your "tray" you should
see a white square box with a + inside. So now cropper is ready to run.
go to any page you want to make a screen shot from. then in your "tray"
click on the white box with +. This should put a somewhat transparent

I've always run my Touch in wireless mode due to the configuration of my

My setup contains:

The home central does not run wi-fi, the zyxel does.
Excellent tip about turning off DHCP on the wireless server and let the
home central take care of that. I'm no network expert, so I didn't know
that was easy to achieve, or even possible. I will try that tonight
when I get home.

There are some guys deactivating the screen in the audiophile section.
Seems to be done by hardware modification, but there may be a way to do
it with software. Although if you are using a controler you can just
put the touch in a cupboard or similar as you would not need line of

Go to the thread or to the soundcheck site. You have to install his
software mods and then activate the one that disables the screen. You
can activate this one without activating any of the other mods. The
screen disable is also reversible.

Thank you very much!! This morning I noticed that both Squeezeboxes
updated their firmware to 1.33. Prior to this that sync setting had
disappeared. It is now back! My gosh, what influence you have!!
I very much appreciate your reply and assistance.

So if switching from WLAN to LAN makes the DAC not sound bad, your
advice is to nevertheless ignore that and go and spend more money on a
better DAC regardless?
You're such a do-gooder, man.
Yes, you can change the name by editing the samba configuration file.

Assumption. You are using Internet Explorer and it is displaying only

It is likely to be a caching issue.
You can play around with IE if you want but the issue is likely to be
completely fixed if youinstall Firefox and use that to connect to the

You were close, I had to change the name in the /etc/hostname file and
reboot. I'm now on the net with "SqueezeboxTouch2". Thanks for pointing
