I've been using 7.5.3 since it is official, I've been using squeezeboxes for several years. I am quite experienced in computers and software development. I posted some (not all) of the problems I have with 7.5.3 in other threads. I explained that in the first hours using 7.5.3, it was so problematic that I was about to revert immediatly to 7.5.2 I decided to wait, just in case 7.5.3 were not guilty. If you are really interested, all my problems are very probably related to connection problems specific to 7.5.3, problems found by many others, so I don't feel like loosing my time explaining them again.
I was fine with 7.5.2 Other people seem to get rid of 7.5.3 problems when they try 7.5.4 I don't want use 7.5.4, not before it is official, and don't feel like arguing about it. In the end, with the problems I have, and the problems others have (just search forums about 7.5.3 problems), I decided, as far as I am concerned, that 7.5.3 is a failure for me, and I would like to get rid of it as soon as possible. With 7.5.3, I am in the same state of mind than with Touch embedded slimserver. I tried to use it flawlessly for weeks with 2.5" usb drive, sometimes successfully. But after some time, you see it is not reliable for you, you don't feel like keeping explaining what's wrong, and you just decide not to loose time with it, and basta. By the way, I sometimes used embedded slimserver with a 8G USB stick while I had 7.5.2, and that was ok. I just tried with 7.5.3, it doesn't work anymore for me. Same usb stick, same music on it ... tried to erase everything but a few flac files and restart from scratch, no music file found ... And no, I won't try to understand why before I revert to 7.5.2, or get an official 7.5.4 andyg;617520 Wrote: > > Perhaps 2-3 weeks, maybe less. > Yes, just don't take the firmware update. Thanks, I now just have to decide if I wait a few weeks more, or revert to 7.5.2 and handle the "ignore update" thing on mysqueezebox.com I apologize if all this appears as only criticism. I don't mean that. The Touch is a great product, but sometimes, as a customer, you really feel like you have to struggle with it. I really think that serious efforts are needed to release less problematic version of squeezebox server, even if that means dropping some hype or funny functionalities. -- nicolas75 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ nicolas75's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15823 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86269 _______________________________________________ squeezenetwork mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezenetwork
