I hope someone can help with this because every time a new firmware comes out I'm tearing my hair out, I did manage to get the last update installed after a fair bit of head scratching and I couldn't find any logical reason that it suddenly started working hence I'm here asking for help. I've searched extensively and everyone seems to suggest it updates automatically with a new server software install. This never happens in my experience. It works on my SB3, if theres ever an update after installing the latest server software it flashes up a prompt to install it by holding brightness. The Radio doesn't do this. The server and both squeezeboxes are not connected to the internet as I only use them to play my own local music files. They're all hardwired rather than wifi and can't be connected to the internet so I can't do the online update.
So my question is how do I force the manual update? I checked in the server/firmware folder and found that the latest software update hadn't put the latest baby.version and baby_7.7.2_r9663.bin in there (which it didn't do last time either, should it not do this?) so I downloaded those 2 files from http://update.slimdevices.com/update/firmware/7.7.2/ and put them in there myself. Since they've been there I've tried going into software update on the Radio and it doesn't seem to do anything other than bring up a menu with 2 options, cancel and help. I tried going through diagnostics then software update which according to one search result should offer a menu that allows an internet update or a local update but I don't get these options on my Radio, I get the same as the other menu, cancel and help. I know I can try the firmware roll back with power and rew but if I do that I'm worried I'll never even get 9557 back on let alone the new one and I'll get stuck on an even older firmware. Currently on baby_7.7.1_r9557.bin firmware and using Windows for the server. Please help me! :) if I knew a way to just set it off installing when new updates came out I'd be happy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ stephentw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20197 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95696 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
