Re: [slim] How do I stop scanner.exe from running?
Mike, the only thing I would point the bone at is the Rescan Timer that you have already checked is off. I am not aware of anything else that would kick off a scan. You don't have some sort of garbage collect program that would clear SB cache that runs auto magically? If the SB server loses it's data base it will rebuild (kickoff a scan). What type of scan is kicked off? The web control Server Settings/Information tab should indicate whether it is a full scan or just a look for new and changed music, but if it is just a look for new and changed music it shouldn't take long. All I can suggest is to email support or try 7.5.1 (or even 7.6.0) and see if it goes away. Pretty lame advice, but I can't think of anything else. -- Wirrunna A camel is a racehorse designed by a committee.

[slim] Receiver stuck in 'Red light flashing slowly' state
Hi all, I've run out of options... :( For the past few days i've been successfully running a squeezebox setup consisting of the Squeezeserver (Freenas), 2 x Receivers, 1 x Squeezebox Boom and a Squeezebox Duet. **This has been working perfectly.**. This morning I awake to find that one of my receivers is not working and instead is just displaying a slow flashing red light. I've tried to remedy this in various ways as follows: 1) Reset by holding down the button on the front (for up to a minute). No change. 2) Disconnecting power for 1 minute then reconnet. - No change. 3) Try connecting to my laptop via ethernet cross over cable - no network lights appear on port. 4) Restart Squeezeserver - no change 5) Restart Wireless router - no change 6) Move my receiver to another room in case it was getting interference from another device. (Even plugging it in right next to the working receiver hasn't helped). I noted the router does not give out an IP Address to this device. Does anyone have any ideas what else I could try? Has it died? (Hope not... just spent 4 months waiting for a replacement remote).

Yikes, I'm sure I paired my wires differently. I'll re-terminate my ends properly at my shorter run length and report back. If fails and I decide to attach a coupler to shorter run to switch from router, is a keystone jack preferable to a coupler? Is there loss introduced in either of these connections? In other words if putting a coupler in between router-switch and signal is making it to switch but still isn't being relayed to the longer distance from switch to shack, might it be relayed sufficiently if switch was instead fed a single uncoupled 100 foot cable from router? -- leif leif's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38372 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79140 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Help me get 500 ft away from router
Does it matter what color order I use inside of ehternet jacket as long as they match up on either end? The reason I ask if cable can be spliced first of all if my cable get's cut accidentally I don't want to have to replace my 400 foot cable if it can be repaired. Placing a coupler between my router and my $35 dollar Bestbuy switch should be ok since it's under 100 feet on that side right? This will allow me to try one more time to span the entire length without a switch since I found a new route that's at least 30 foot shorter than the 400 foot one that failed. I'll cut the extra slack off, measure it and let you guys know by how much shorter my new cable is and if it works. If it fails I'll be able to cut off a length from the cable just long enough to span distance from switch and shack and I'll place a coupler on the shorter side of the cable of the ethernet cable that goes into my router since it will then need about an extra 20 foot of ethernet cable attached to it to accomidate the extra length the switch needs. Or will adding a coupler between my router and switch even though it's under 100 feet weaken the signal the switch get's and lesson the signal strength the switch will be able to shoot out to shack? If this is the case then perhaps I shouldn't use a coupler between the 100 foot run between router and switch and instead discard the shorter length of the two cables from my cut I make of my 400 feet cable and instead install a new cable to switch from router that is 20 feet longer to acomidate the extra length needed for the switch. -- leif leif's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38372 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79140 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

You can splice it together by putting plugs on the ends to be joined and plug them into a coupler. However, I would try to avoid that.

We are pleased to announce the release of VortexBox 1.3. Continuing with our goal to make VortexBox the universal server for any media player we have added full DLNA support to VortexBox. DLNA is the future of media sharing and many players such as PS3, Windows 7 Media Player, and Samsung televisions support DLNA. Now all you players SqueezeBox, Sonos, and DLNA can all use the same media. We have also added Bliss to the VortexBox web GUI. Bliss can find cover art for even the most obscure albums.

Re: [slim] Is My Squeezebox V3 fried?
In answering a previous question, there is no logo or anything when I plug it back in. So if it is the Wi-Fi card, is it as easy as opening up the device and finding it and maybe taking it out and putting it back in? -- thekidct thekidct's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5002 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79392 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] How do I stop scanner.exe from running?
Wirrunna, Thanks for your interest and help. I am currently running 7.5.0, but this has been going on for at least a year. It wasn't until last week I took the time to find out what was hammering my hard drive. On both PCs, it's scanner.exe. I am not running Music IP or any plugins. (I've been using Squeeze for about 6 years.) I haven't noticed any particular pattern; the thing just takes off and runs. I notice it running maybe once a week, but it may run more often. I don't think it's a "scanner" virus because I just rebuilt my laptop from scratch (format c:) about a month ago. I'm surprised I'm the only one seeing this, since both of my PCs are affected.

You can recover data from external USB HDD (corrupted, damaged, formatted) easily with the use of professional mac data recovery software. For better and safe recovery you need to choose professional recovery software which recover data with maintaining data integrity, means you get data as it was before without any destruction. http://www.datarecoverymac.co.uk -- lucy lucy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38544 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=63033 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
