I've had my SB Radio for a few days now and am still not entirely happy with the Alarm clock behaviour. In truth, this mostly relates to the switching between my local SBServer and mySqueezebox.com. I find this whole concept pretty un-intuitive. I think the main problem I have is that the radio does not automatically switch over to MSB.com if the local server is unavailable.
I host SBServer on my NAS (ReadyNas Duo) but the tree-hugger in me is not quite comfortbale with running this 24x7. Maybe that will change once I get a quieter fan and it doesn't sound like I'm powering a hairdryer 24x7. - Last thing at night I may be listening to music or internet radio streamed from my local SBS on the NAS. - However, when the alarm goes off in the morning, the NAS is powered off - so the radio displays a "cannot connect" error and reverts to the default looped music. - Ideally I would like the alarm to stream internet radio via MSB.com. However, unless I remember to manually switch over every night, this seems to be impossible. - I would have thought that this was even more relevant to people who host their SBServer on a PC as this is even less likely to be always on. I read somewhere that the latest software is apparently much more seemless in terms of integration between SBServer and MSB.com. Fortunately, I'm a newbie. I can't imagine how things could be any LESS seemless. Perhaps I'll get used to it. Anyone got any suggestions ?
