None of the players was connected to mySB.com, but is interesting that the Radio and SB ended up behaving the most oddly, initially refusing to get music from the configured SBS library. IT does indeed sound like something somewhere covertly reaches out to mySB.com even when the user tries to get keep it all home. And it makes sense this would happen during configuration of a new device, especially since I am an enthusiastic Pandora user and the Radio had to be told by something, somewhere what my Pandora userid and password are... and that information is stored via mySBS.com... So my question is - would Pandora still work if I block the mySB.com addresses? Pandora (and a horrible local radio station my gf likes) are the only things I access outside the SBS music library. Indeed I think those who claimed that this was primarily mySB.com related got "it" faster than I did. I now feel a lack of synchronization and issues in settings between sbs and mysb.com caused this. And yes, a clean, forward-compatible way to protect and restore settings is a must at this point in time. I now have 7 squeezeboxes in the house. And with every new software update or every new box I add I run the risk of obliterating a lot of hard work that went into configuring these. Yes, I *do* backup my stuff. The problem here is I am not given a tool to back up my boxes configuration settings, they sit in an obscure, undocumented system file that lacks the flexibility to cope with incremental changes. It's a binary "status quo cast in stone" or "start from scratch" proposition. -- pablolie ...pablo Server: Shuttle X27D - Ubuntu 8.04LTS - SBS 7.4.1 Sources: SB3 (3), SB Boom (3), Duet (1), Accuphase DP65v CD Amplifier: Accuphase E306v - Creek OBH21/22 Loudspeakers: Ceeroy 3-way tower (tuned) - Audioengine 5/S8 - Acoustic Energy Aego M Headphones: Grado SR-1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74819 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
