I've tried a few scenarios and all of them had the same result: - alarm set to play radio stream with LMS not available - alarm set to play music track/playlist with LMS not available - alarm set to play music track/playlist with music not available
The default backup alarm (Fa Fa Fa) plays in every instance. However, I noticed two things with this. It look a little while for the backup alarm to launch. Under normal circumstances the alarm is heard when the minute flips over. With the backup, it took about 20-30 seconds for it to come on. More interesting (to me anyway) was the fact that the backup sound came from the Radio's speaker. I have a pair of powered computer speakers plugged into the headphone jack so I can have stereo music. But when Fa Fa Fa played, it was from the device itself. Which lead me to a final test scenario: - alarm set to play, speakers plugged in the headphone jack, power to the speakers turned off, LMS available. Amazingly, the stream came from the Radio's speakers. At this point, I turned off the alarm (at the Radio,) turned on the powered speakers, and turned on the radio. And the sound came from the powered speakers. At least I'll sleep better tonight knowing that if the box where LMS lives crashes, something will still wake me up. -- phred ------------------------------------------------------------------------ phred's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=52602 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93578 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
