Hi, About a month or so, I upgraded from SlimServer 6.5.4 to the official SqueezeCenter 7.0.
The update went fine and no apparent problems. Starting my SqueezeBox also went well and the firmware got updated. But the SB does really not respond well to remote commands from the IR controller. It is VERY slow - like 5 seconds for each press of a button. Furthermore I noticed occational freezings during start of the SB (not often but about 1-3 times a week). Well, about 5 days ago I decided to upgrade to the newest beta. Upgrade also went well, but I had a lot of problems getting the SB to update the FW. Pressing "brightness" didn't work - either no response from the SB or total freeze. Reading a few suggestions here I then set the SB to automatically update the FW - this helped. BUT using the beta versions didn't help on the slow IR Remote problems and the SB got a lot more unstable. Often freezing and today I didn't succeed in getting it to work. It boots fine and then displays "Now Playing" - it then freezes and I can't do anything. Restarted a few times with no change (both using wireless and ethernet). Well, I've not uninstalled SC and reinstalled SlimServer 6.5.4 - after the "downgrade" starting the SB again it apparently downgraded the firmware to 81 and everything is running as it should - eg. no freezes yet and a very responsive IR Remote :-) It would be great if anybody has some suggestions of what to do as I really liked the SC7 interface and functionality :-) I'm running this on a Windows 2008 64bit server - firewall has been changed appropriately (during the tests it was even disabled).
