Sorry - lack of detail! I've been providing much more detail in other forums, so my comments are out there somewhere.
To start...configuration: SBS host: ReadyNAS NV+ with maximum RAM & 6TB Clients: Three receivers & one SB Radio Controllers: Two remotes, one Android phone and one Android tablet Browsers: IE8 and Chrome Installation went fine and I followed the procedure to the letter. I even redid the Netgear Firmware, even though I was on the latest release already. The initial scan of the music ran too quickly - seemingly just looking at directories. I reran it and it took longer (though much faster than 7.5.x) and looked credible. However, looking at the web interface, only Random Mix was available under My Music. Nothing else. Interestingly, if I actually opted for a bit of Ramdom Mix, the music was there, complete with album art, etc. So - something wrong there. The biggest problem (and I've seen this back around 7.4 or before) was that the remotes couldn't connect to the SBS at all. They could oddly see the other players in the network (though not reliably - the list would vary), but couldn't connect to SBS. They would try, then offer me a different network or to retry. Nothing ever worked, so I was completely unable to see any music. The same was true via the Android apps. They couldn't get connect or get a list of music. Also - the home menu was oddly lacking in options. I tried Settings / Home Menu to try to set it as I wanted, but no options were available other than Reset to default. That may be because it wasn't connected to the SBS. In any case, after lots of tries, with lots of devices, cache clearing, reinstalls, etc., I put this down as another one of those SBS releases that simply hasn't been properly QA's on enough different configurations. As I say, I've had this before, tried for AGES before giving up. I later managed to get upgraded to 7.5.4, which ran perfectly. Right now, I've dropped back to 7.5.5, which works perfectly. I don't think I'll chance another upgrade for a while and only then when I can see that there aren't so many complaints about the release. -- kkeyte ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kkeyte's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21867 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89012 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
