7.5 still works that way, with IR and SB3:- 1A. press numeric in menu - jump to that option number (i.e. '3' in home menu jumps to 3 of 9 - Internet Radio, in my case) 1B. press numeric in list - jump to that letter (i.e. '3' cycles through D,E,F) 2. press and hold numeric - replace playlist with preset 3. press,hold and keep holding numeric - set preset to current menu selection (presumably only if it is a playable item).
Option 3 doesn't seem to work well, i.e. the press part of P,H&K moves you in the menu and therefore you don't save the item you originally selected!! Never used on previous releases, so not sure if this is a new problem, but it exists in 7.4.1 and 7.5. However, if you point the IR at the SB Radio then the top functionality is gone and you only have preset functionality. Personally I never used presets with SB3 or Boom but can see the value (especially with Radio), I think having to use the physical buttons on Radio and Boom to set the preset would be fine (and overcomes the above difficulty). Leaving presets as is on SB3 is okay by me, assuming those that use it will know and raise the problem I have mentioned. Therefore having the following options for SqueezePlay would enable IR users to choose to have consistent operation between SB3 and Radio/Touch. I don't think option 1 need be 'ported' back to SB3. Option (1) "numerics = preset" Default Press Numeric = Jump to Preset Press and Hold Numeric = Set Preset Option (2) "numerics = navigate" Press Numeric = Navigate (context specific) Press and Hold Numeric = Jump to Preset if available. Press, Hold and Keep Holding = Set preset Configuring each numeric separately doesn't seem correct but would fit with the 7.5 'shortcuts' beta option. I'll raise this as an enhancement and see what Tom makes of it (and carve out from https://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14990 which I raised yesterday). -- DigitalMitch 2 * SB3, 1 * Boom, 2 * SBR, 1 * Radio controlled by IR, SBC and iPeng on iPhone 7.4 running on WHS on HP MediaSmart (EX470) http://www.last.fm/user/digimich ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DigitalMitch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15999 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=70500 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
