I've been having a few problems since switching over to 6.0 on my WinXP server
(although it's been largely painless).

First, I can't really quantify it, but it seems like the Squeezebox display is
displaying the info for the next song a good 2-3 seconds before the previous
song is finished playing. I'm not sure, but this might have been happening
with the 5.4 version as well.


This has, unfortunately, always been the case with Squeezbox1. The display changes as soon as we start streaming the next song to the box. The 2-3 second delta represents the size of the input buffer of the box. This may not be a great consolation, but this is fixed for Squeezebox2.

Second, when starting up a new playlist, it often (but not always) skips the
first song and throws this error:
Use of uninitialized value in numeric gt (>) at /PerlApp/Slim/Player/Source.pm
line 1642.
Use of uninitialized value in subtraction (-) at /PerlApp/Slim/Player/Source.pm
line 1644.
Use of uninitialized value in numeric gt (>) at /PerlApp/Slim/Player/Source.pm
line 1654.
I've seen this one across all of the 6.0 betas so far.


Hmm...this seems to be happening because we don't seem to have size information for the track. Are you playing a local playlist or a browsed selection (album, artist, genre)? Does it happen consistently for all selections?

Third, just since I switched to 6.0b3 (using the Fishbone skin), the iTunes
playlists are coming up with an "itunesplaylist:" prefix even though I
specifically have no prefix or suffix in the settings. They also have "%20"
anywhere a space is present in the playlist name. I've tried setting the
prefix to something and then changing it back, but it seems to ignore the
setting entirely. This was not the case in b2.


It was the result of a late performance checkin and will be fixed in the next nightly. Thanks for the report.
