If you ever connect the boom directly to mysqueezebox.com the alarm setting will change too "use current playlist" what ever it was before . I'm not at home now have yet to determine if "sync settings" has to be on for it to happen. And in my case I have alarm scheduled on mysb.com too ,as backup if server blows at the same times. This can also be a factor. It might be a bug report by me very soon. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: SB3 (soon to replaced by a Touch :) It is on preorder) Bedroom/Office: Boom Kitchen: Receiver (soon to be replaced by my SB3 and the SBRto be stuffed in a box in the attic ) I use a Controller various ir-remotes and a Eee-PC with squeezeplay to controll this ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74204 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
