I have a SB Touch that connects to a QNAP TS-412 NAS through one of two LMSes. I have one LMS on the NAS that is very iffy as of late and another one on a Mac laptop, which is a little less iffy, but not good. Both LMSes are the latest version of 7.7 and I control the player through a iPad 2 using iPeng or Logitech's own app and it plays through a fairly hefty sound system. The NAS has probably a couple of terabytes of music on it.
The player is on all the time, but most of the time when I want to access it neither app can find the player. It doesn't matter whether which of the LMSes I'm using. Sometimes I can control it directly on the player and fuss around a while to get it going-- changing libraries, disconnecting and reconnecting and just fiddling. It takes a good 20 minutes if I'm lucky, then I'm usually good to go with the iPad... except that it occasionally loses the connection to the player and then it comes back. I've tried connecting the player via the Ethernet using a power line adapter and through an 801.n wireless network using an Apple Airport Xtreme where the router is no more than 10 feet away. Sometimes one way works better than the other, but not consistently. iPeng just kind of hangs during all the fussing then tells me that "your player cannot be found" or switches to the iPad itself; the Logitech controller app does give me some error about network connectivity that might be due to congestion, etc. It worked flawlessly until I got the NAS but I can't see why that should make a difference. I should still be able see the player, shouldn't I? Any suggestions? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bosconermal's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35269 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95315 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
