Indeed I used it for about two months now and it only failed a few times completely. There were about a dozen semi-fails though where the alarm only played for a few minutes or even a few seconds when it should play 45 minutes. For really important alarms, I use the alarm function in my mobile phone which never fails.
In a nutshell: the design of the software is severely spoiled and chances are low that this well change in the next two months or so. Therefore it only works reliable under perfect conditions. If you live in the USA, have a static IP address (or at least no forced reconnects by the ISP) or want to use a local Squeezebox server which runs 24h/days a week, you might be happy with the alarm function. If you live in Europe and want to use the Radio via MYSB, you won't. -- 0xdeadbeef ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 0xdeadbeef's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2287 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73164 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
