This is going to get a little technical, also I don't have my
Radio/Touch on hand so it's from memory.

Touch and Radio are small Linux systems and the Squeezeplay is the
player running on the Touch. The logging is generated by Squeezeplay and
logged into a file within the Touch/radio system
To access the log file you need to remotely login (i.e. over network)
into Touch/Radio - this is known as "ssh'ing.  The command line process
on a Linux system is called a shell (i.e. sh) - so ssh is "*s*ecure
*sh*ell access" 

The following assume Community build firmware in Touch/Radio.

1. Enable SSH login on the Radio, using the interface on the Radio:
SETTINGS -> ADVANCED -> REMOTE LOGIN -> ENABLE SSH

2. Find the Radio's IP address. Either in
SQUEEZEBOX SERVER -> SETTINGS -> INFORMATION
or in the Radio user interface
SETTINGS -> ADVANCED -> DIAGNOSTICS

3. To remote login you need to run an application such as "ssh" on Linux
system.  Alternative is PuTTY which is availabwel for other system such
as Windows.

Login with username root and password 1234.  
With ssh it will be something like  "ssh root@<ipaddress>" and then
reply 1234
with PuTTY - you need to select "ssh" and the <ipaddress> in the
configuration dialogue.

To enable logging in the Touch I think the menu is 
SETTINGS -> ADVANCED -> LOGGING
Like LMS, there are many modules - I think an "audio" one woudl be place
to start. Change setting to DEBUG.

Now logging will go to a log file on the Touch called
*/var/log/messages*.  
To examine the file - from the command prompt in putty/ssh session use
the command 
CAT /VAR/LOG/MESSAGES

Look at result to see if an error message has been logged amongts all
the "normal" messages.

Usually when tracking a bug, after running a test , the messages file is
copied to a host system to save and later analyse.
