[SlimDevices: Touch] Alarm display

2017-06-17 Thread Phil Meyer
Alarm handling is the single most annoying thing about the Touch. I wondered if there were any alternative Alarm Addons, or if a patch would be possible. Alarm comes on when it is meant to, plays music at the right configured volume. The problem: 1. I have it set up to play random music.

Is there anyway of disabling shuffle permanently as im never one to use it? Not that I'm aware of. I use the StatusFirst plugin, which means that the first click will report what the current setting is, so that accidental clicks don't cause a change.

Radio meets EC1275, as does Controller. Touch appears to with its default settings (showing the clock screen when off; with screen dark when off it does not). None of the IP3K players meet the new EU standards. I thought I had read that Touch was consuming too much, but that more could be done

I believe you're mistaken. Squeezebox Server 7.6 is still in beta. On the Touch I was told that a software update was available and would I like to download it? That sounds non beta to me, but if it is I stand corrected. I think you are confusing SBS Software updates with Player Firmware

Touch is actually controlling a Boom player, which has an alarm set for 7am each morning (to start the local news downstairs, not as an alarm clock). What should be displayed on Player A if Player A is controlling Player B: - If an alarm occurs on Player A? - If an alarm occurs on Player B?

This is something I do quite frequently on SB3. eg. I play random songs, something comes on that takes my fancy, and I browse to the artist to play another album by that artist, or perhaps bring up a MusicIP mix using the artist as a seed. The context menu on Touch/Radio for a song allows

My personal feeling is that hold-touch on an artist should always open the context menu independent on where you are standing, even if you are standing on an artist item inside a context menu. Totally agree. And only ever bring up the context menu with a long-touch action, never single press.

You shut it down by pulling the plug, its designed for that. I'm not so sure about that. The power cable is right next to the USB socket, which is kind of awkward at best. I find inserting/extracting a USB stick quite awkward (especially as I tend to do unintended actions on the touch screen
