--- Comment #68 from Alan Young <[email protected]> 2010-05-25 01:23:14 PDT --- Here is a status report for those monitoring this bug: When 7.5.0 was released there was both new firmware for Squeezebox Radio and new software on mysqueezebox.com. People started reporting that their SB Radios stopped playing and many attributed this to problems to the 7.5.0 firmware. It seems highly likely that the actual cause was a bug introduced in to the mysqueezebox.com software. This bug was fixed on 17 May. Since then, behaviour should have reverted to that of 7.4.2. This is the key message in this comment. In the process of analysing the problems, we uncovered a number of vulnerabilities in the interactions between a player and mysqueezebox.com which could, under some circumstances, cause playback to stop unnecessarily. The SB Radio (and other SP-based players including the SB Touch) is slightly more likely to be affected by these than are older players (Classic, Boom, Duet, etc.) because of small differences in timings used by the firmware. We also uncovered a couple of related bugs in the SP firmware. None of these are changes between 7.4.2 and 7.5.0. Testing is currently under way for changes to both mysqueezebox.com and the firmware used for Radio and Touch to fix the identified bugs and substantially reduce the vulnerabilities. These fixes will be included in 7.5.1 and should represent an enhancement over 7.4.2 in this area. -- JWagner ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JWagner's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37527 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79116 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
