Thanks, I did find a post or two that indicated it is possible to do a
factory reset then bit with an SD or USB stick with an appropriately
named script that will enable ssh, before the touch boots. Can anyone
confirm our fill in the blanks on this? One such post was by John
Swenson, but it
Please be very cautious when separating the case. After removing the
stand w/ a 5/64 hex and the two #0 phillips screws, the case will start
to separate from the bottom, but the top section may resist. In my
case, when I pulled a bit to hard and the top section came free, the two
halves
Yes, thanks indeed!
I will order the part and also attempt this repair. Looks like the
Vishay part with the correct pinout is Vishay TSOP 32238. Here's the
'data sheet' (http://www.vishay.com/docs/82489/tsop322.pdf).

I have opened my Touch and measured the signals on the IR module.
Results:
- the VCC is AWFUL, terrible ripple at high frequency. Maybe because
the wifi antenna is just next to the IR module?
- the IR out reacts correctly when the remote is sending, even at
I also have a Touch with failed IR sensing. If you complete a

Thanks,
I'm hoping to open the remote to troubleshoot it, without breaking it.
There are no screws that I've found and I can't figure out hoe to
separate the two halves without risk of breakage.

Ok, I managed to get it open by inserting the edge of a sharp knife into
the gap and twisting. there are 3 clips per side. Unfortunately that
was the good news. pcb trace is broken where the LED/flasher attaches.
Thought is was a loose/bad solder joint at first but unfortunately that

Found my SB Touch remote to be unresponsive. No signs of physical
damage and new batteries doesn't revive it. My SB2 remote works to
control the touch, so it appears the remote is dead. I'd like to open
it up to see if it's an obvious fix, but can't figure out how to open it
up. Anyone been

The Touch does support IR blaster through the headphone jack just like
the SB3. With the current firmware it's not as capable since it does not
support raw mode in the IR blaster plugin. If you already have the
correct information for your amp and use it with the SB3 IR

I'm not an expert on IR Blaster, I've tested it to make sure it works
but that is as far as I've gotten. If my understanding is correct raw
mode is very low level information on how the IR beam is modulated. But

Just got the Touch presets configured: Settings - Advanced - Beta
Features - Shortcuts Only six presets available; I mapped press-hold
numeral keys 1 - 6 to presets 1 - 6, which are the same as my Favorites

A long time Squeezebox user, from the release of the Squeezebox 2 on, I

Currently running LMS locally on a Vortexbox.
In reference to the SB2/3, the Touch seems to be less than optimal in

Thanks, didn't know about swipes or the press hold of the back arrow.
Definitely helps, tho still not as fast as with a SB2/3 - it's loads
better than hitting the back button repeatedly to power off or just to
get home. Shame that I had to ask on the forums, though; ideally the
