Hi, I just received my new Duet and now I have a lot of questions as many things are new.
- Is there a way to set the static IP address of the controller/receiver without resetting the controller and/or the receiver? If I do it as advised (turning off the DHCP server) the controller gets a 169.x.x.x address. - I massively used the keyword search and the song scanner plugins. I have installed them on my SC7 but they only show up on my old SBs. I found RetroBrowser but if I use this I don't have the benefits of the new controller. And it's sluggish. Do the developers of the plugins think about making them available on the Controller, too? - I use a small script that displays the phone number on the SBs' display. It uses the CLI show command. First, the show command returns a response line on SBs for that command. The Controller does not, it waits forever. And the behaviour on the Controller is conpletely different: It only shows a small window. The duration parameter is ignored, it only shows the message for 1 or 2 seconds. The screensaver does not interrupt if a message is displayed. And is there a way to display it in large letters like the background getting dark with white letter (like updating, etc)? - There is a hole at the top of the Controller. It seems as if I could plug something in there. But I cannot hear anything. What is that hole for? And it has a speaker. It comes to my mind that this would be the basis for a squeezebox in the controller, hmmm... Anybody heard of such? The user's guide does not talk about that hole. - Is it possible that I saw an IR sender next to that hole? And now for the problems that I have with the Duet: - The battery in the controller is empty after about 45-60 min. The web site says something about several hours and with all saving modes multiple days. What are your experiences? - After about 1.5 hours of listening the receiver sound becomes really bad. The sound becomes some sort of "metallic" and distorted. I think that the received also becomes quite warm. I now had this for 3 times. (I have the Duet since yesterday.) Does anybody have an idea what I can do? - The Controller often "reboots" without doing anything. Lots of questions. And I thank you for your answers! -slutz -- slutz ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slutz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11171 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45382 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
