[slim] Best practices: SqueezeCenter (flac) to iPod

2008-06-30 Thread Klaus

Hello

I'm just curious if there is a more comfortable way to get the music
from SC to the iPod. I have about 60k flac song's on my SC. So I just
want to add some CD's from this collection to my iPod. Currently the
way I do is, I log on to the shared drive, where the music resides.
Copy all tracks I want to add to my local drive. Use frontAh to convert
the music to mp3. Add the music to mp3 and sync it to my ipod. 

I'm asking myself is there not a nicer way to do this. What I'm
imagining is on the webinterface choosing download as mp3-zip or
whatever, then just click the file and all flac's from the cd or
playlist are transcoded on the server and downloaded as zip-file. so at
least the music has only to be added to itunes and especially the
complete family can have access to the webinterface for downloading
music (don't like to give to many permissions to the shared drive, as
the collection is a many-weeks work ;-)

thanks for any hint's, ideas, etc
klaus

Re: [slim] Audioengine A2 or A5?

2008-06-30 Thread bossanova808

Have you tried them further away?  I noticed a substantial difference
moving them to about a foot away - the bass port is at the rear and I
really think they want a bit of room.  That said they were close to a
wall AND on the floor so I don't know whether it was the height or the
wall distance that made the really big difference!

[slim] Remote keys not responding properly in 'browse music folder'

2008-06-30 Thread epn

If someone helps me I will gladly say thank you and have a drink in your
honor. Also, I will toast your longevity.

When I browse in my Music Folder the remote keys don't match up
properly with letters.  If I hit key "4" the display jumps to the first
folder beginning with "G".  That is as expected.  However, if I hit key
"6" it jumps to "L" instead of "M".  "7" also jumps to "L" instead of
"P".  Keys 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9 all work as expected.  Only 6 & 7 do not
work.
And this is only in Browse Music Folder.  In Genre (for example) key
"7" jumps to "Pop".  As expected.  In any browse mode other than Music
Folder the keys are assigned as I expect.  
Can someone point me to a fix?

[slim] No sound through SqueezeCenter...

2008-06-30 Thread pipetman

I just upgraded from Slimserver to SqueezeCenter and also put my music
on a NAS. I have an old laptop doing server duties, running the SC
software. So far so good - streaming music to my SB3 works just fine.
But when I try to play music through SC on my PC (opening the web
interface), there's no sound. I also tried VLC and put in the
server/stream.mp3 url and it shows, that it's playing something, but
again no sound (from mp3 or flac). I didn't have this problem before
with my Slimserver setup, so where do I start troubleshooting???

Thanks

Re: [slim] Thread/Forum Read Marking Type

2008-06-30 Thread davep

Mike,
this is actually something I had wanted for some time, as someone whose
normal method of browsing the forums is to click on "New Posts" but who
can sometimes get interrupted in a session and lose the tagging of
unread new posts of genuine interest before the next session.

However when I did New Posts this morning I got 397 items shown which
includes dozens of ones I will never want to read (NAS configuration
anyone?) and lots that I can't read (German, French, etc).  As it is
this is not my ideal solution - a 10 day buffer seems way to much for
me.

What I would like is the ability to "wipe the slate clean" at any point
and mark all posts as read so that next time I can start with genuine
new posts and take it from there.  

Is this possible?

Re: [slim] lot's of backgroud noise like tape hiss

2008-06-30 Thread bpa

The code for mov123 is online and can be read easily and IIRC there is
no processing of audio data except through QuickTime library calls. 
That said, mov123 seem to use an older supported but not preferred
library interface and perhaps that is where the error is creeping in
and why existing applications have no problem.

The only way to prove/disprove whether Quicktime is the issue would be
to install older versions of Quicktime library and see if the problem
is in all of them or not.  

Alternatively save the output from mov123 (i.e. no SC involved) of an
audio fragment which demonstrates the hiss and compare the binary file
to the mov123 output from a system where no hiss is heard.

This is user forum - if you want Logitech to examine this issue - log a
bug and describe the bug and how using faad is a workaround and so
identifies mov123 as source of problem.

Well please excuse my ignorance here but simply pushing this to
Quicktime is sort of easy. I doubt it is a quicktime problem. These
files play well in quicktime and/or iTunes and in fact any other app
here that uses quicktime. Except for SC/mov123. I rather suspect this
to be an issue with SC or how SC uses mov123.

As I have reported in another thread a couple of times already the
default configuration coming with SC still makes use of big endian even
though you must not do this on an Intel based platform. No one seems to
care about this either. This may or may not be related, but it gives
you some sort of clue as to how Slim Devices seems to handle the Mac
platform. 

I personally wouldn't be so arrogant (no offense) to simply push the
problem elsewhere. Something is wrong - out of the box for paying
customers - and that should be investigated.

If the next update is not going to fix this problem and I will have to
resort to the "faad hack", I am going to carry that little box back to
Logitech so they can keep it. I bought support for AAC on Mac and it's
not working.

Sorry, I don't mean you. I just hope someone from Logitech is reading
this.

All mov123 does is call QuickTime libraries to decode so the problem is
in QuickTime.  

Variations of this problem have been reported from time to time on
Windows platform but it seems to only affect a small number of systems.

Since we upgraded the forum servers last week, we have now decided to
change the forum read marking method to a database method driven by
username activity.

This means that read/unread forums and threads markings will now be
based on your _actual_ forum use over the last 10 days. Threads older
than 10 days will be marked as read automatically.

We're so 21st century now!

That did it. faad was not in SC's path. Copied it over to SC's
Bin/darwin directory and now it's working.

And you know what? It's working perfectly. No hiss, perfect quality.

So my files are all right and this has got to be a bug in mov123 or
whatever.

Strange that no one else has noticed this yet?

Was the application called faad or faad2 ?  If it is called faad2 then

Ok so I tried the fadd stuff. Put it into custom-convert.conf as you
said and restarted the server. Now everything in the file type section
of the web inerface is greyed out. See attached screeshot.

I also tried commenting out everything related in the convert.conf,
just to make sure, but I get similar results.

While I've only had WHS for about 3 months, I completely agree. The
auto backup is wonderful and completely painless. Having the capability
to run SqueezeCenter on the WHS server at no additional cost is a great
bonus. I got the HP Media Center, so my main drive is a 500G. Thus, I
have not had the file transfer problem.

Just use a large primary drive and this problem should be solved.

Re: [slim] Horrific setup experience - need help

2008-06-30 Thread doggieflyer

Keep in mind I'm trying to create an all-wired network.  All the
squeezeboxes are wired to the same Ethernet router.  Some of the
receivers insist on connecting via wireless even though I wish them not
to.  I've unplugged the wireless outright and then the controller fails
to connect to the boxes.

I expect the receivers to be able to connect to the Ethernet LAN on the
same network, and the controller to connect in bridged fashion to the
receivers without using the wireless.  Unfortunately it's not working,
which is why I'm having to deal with this dual DHCP mess.

Hi,
Do the Controller and the iTouch both support the weather forecast and
condition plug ins and do they show on the screens?
I just watched the YouTube video on the controller and it looks really
good.  I have no idea how the iTouch would work but it does have more
uses which is nice.
Thanks,

No offence, but what exactly do you expect Logitech to be able to do
about it ?

DHCP was invented to simply networking for the average user. The
discovery mechanism that the SBs use (and which only works on a single
subnet) was designed to make things easier for the average user. They
provide a fallback mechanism (of entering the server's address
manually) for those unusual cases where there are more than one subnet.

>From my understanding of the DHCP protocol there isn't likely to be a
foolproof way of detecting that more than one DHCP server is active.
And even if there was the best the SB could was was say "help" and
leave the user to sort out the mess.

A network with more than one DHCP server fighting over the same address
space is broken and I don't see how Logitech can fix that*.


* I guess they could make a change to the server discovery mechanism
that the SBs and SBC use, but it is hard to see a sensible change to
make. It currently uses broadcasts, if you wanted to make it work
without fail across subnets and firewalls then I guess you'd have to
make SBR, SB, SBC and SC all go out onto the web to a SlimDevices
server and register their presence with each other there.

Even then it is hard to see how you would make it work, as it would be
a nightmare to determine which collection of SBR, SB, SBC and SC came
from which network. Even if you got that side it it to work there is no
guarantee they would be able to talk to each other on such a network
even once they had discovered each other.

The only other way would be to dump TCP, DHCP et al and take the
propriety route. I think it is pretty clear that would lose them more
current users than it would gain them.

[slim] A funny (?) thing about playlists not updating

2008-06-30 Thread okvaal

Hi.
Using Media Center 12 and SqueezeCenter 7.0.1, I'm facing the following
problem: On MC12 I've created several playlists, of which I'm editing
one, ie. I'm moving titles from that one into other playlists. All
playlists are then exported to C:/User/Music. At this point I'm working
in MC12. Then I go to SqueezeCenter and click Settings/Rescan Playlists.
Still, when opening the corresponding playlists in SC, the files which I
had just moved, still appear in the SC playlist. 
I've tried deleting the playlist from C:/User/Music and then exporting
it again, but still nothing happens. Any ideas? Or did I succeed in
explaining my problem at all?

cheers,
ole k

Re: [slim] Horrific setup experience - need help

2008-06-30 Thread doggieflyer

Good info everyone.  Fortunately I do understand all you're saying.  

Putting on my generic user hat, Logitech needs to simplify network
handling because most users won't know DHCP from ABC.  I'd have no clue
that I was running two DHCP servers if I didn't have a bit of networking
experience in my day job.

I imagine my setup is not unusual.  I have a DSL router supplied by
Verizon.  It provides DHCP by default.  You connect your computers to
the router and they automatically gain a dynamic IP and connect to the
internet, usually behind a default firewall built into the router. 
Most users will change nothing.  I added on a wireless router when I
got a wireless laptop.  Plug it in and it all works together.

Given this scenario, consumers aren't going to know the merits of
disabling DHCP on the wireless router.  They go buy Squeezeboxes, get
frustrated and return them.

Yes, and its easy with the usual DHCP daemons that come with all the
usual Linux distros.

I do a lot of wireless networking stuff for my day job. WiFi, bluetooth,
zigbee, etc. And I've developed a complete flaming reaction to boxes
that setup themselves as 192.168.1.1 and turn on DHCP. I've had
different boxes from different vendors do it so often it makes me mad as
hell and I'll not going to take it any more.

This is also a prime reason I run my subnet on 172.16.4.*
so that when I see a 192.168.*.*, I know its some fascist box trying to
ruin my day.

I run DHCP on everything. Not only is it the default, but I really
dislike having to run to boxes and manage their IP settings.

But, and this is key, and where Phil and I actually agree in spirit,
I run DHCP on two linux servers (backing each other up, failover, etc.)
where I assign fixed IP addresses to every MAC address in my house. and
I run a bind/dns, so each IP address gets a nice fixed fully qualified name.

What this does is let me manage all the assignment of IP addresses in
one place, while allowing the boxes to all use DHCP

When I get a new box, I plug it in, and it gets DHCP. When a buddy
brings a laptop, they get DHCP. Yet all my boxes, (SqueezeBoxen,
Transporter, Receiver, Controller, laptops, music server, even the WiFi
access point) get fixed addresses.

I'll be stronger than Phil. You really *must* have only one DHCP server
on your network (altho having them provide failover is good) and you
*must* be on the same subnet.

Fix that, and I expect you will have a much nicer experience

Thanks for all the responses and ideas.  One that a couple of you hit on
I will definitely try.

The wired and wireless routers I think both are providing DHCP.  I can
tell because the IP range on the wired is 192.168.0.x while those
connecting to the wireless show 192.168.2.x.  I will try to disable
DHCP on the wireless and see if that helps.

Several times I did unplug wireless outright so the system would act in
bridge mode.  I still had lots of connection problems.  Hopefully after
updating the controller and fixing DHCP I can progress.

On the controller note, I went to my old home this morning and
connected my wired and wireless routers to my FIOS connection.  After a
few failed attempts I was able to get the controller to update and
reset.  I can see that the upgrade took.  I've not gotten any further
with the connection problems yet, but anyway...

After the controller updated, when I go to the update option it still
says that another update is available.  I don't have the wording in
front of me but it basically says that I can "upgrade to version ?". 
Whenever I try, it fails.

It thinks there is a newer software version but it doesn't know what

2008-06-30 Thread nunovi

Same for me here. I can understand that the incentive from Logitech to
build such an app is quite low but I would be willing to pay for a good
software squeezebox implementation. Softsqueeze is still too unreliable
on the connectivity part.

Re: [slim] iPod Touch vs Duet Controller

2008-06-30 Thread PRGeno

I had both, and both are far from perfect in their use as a controller.

I returned the Controller because it's screen is not good outdoors, and
is no match for the iPhone/Touch screen.  You also get far more for your
money, more than just a controller for your $299, with the iPhone/Touch
as well.

The iPhone/Touch and iPeng has it's issues too.  Most of them are due
to the shortcomings of Safari, which hopefully gets corrected with the
2.0/3G software release July 11th.

It's fully expected that both will have software improvements over
time.  But the poor screen performance of the Controller was a show
stopper for me.

Re: [slim] iPod Touch vs Duet Controller

2008-06-30 Thread adamslim

I have both (and a Nokia 770 and an Asus Eee - all get used as
Squeezebox controllers occasionally!).

If funds are tight and you fancy getting a mobile wifi browser, get an
iPod Touch.  It gives most of the use of the Controller, and is the
best wifi mobile browser out there.  Lovely product.

However, if you just want a remote control for your music, the
Controller is better.  The scrolling is better (although the iPeng is
good), the keys are useful and it's more intuitive.  Put it in the
hands of a friend and it takes 10 seconds to explain how it works
(mainly the difference between play and add); then they're choosing
music and thinking about buying one themselves!

Neither works 100%.  Wifi has issues, and such things are never going
to be bug-free.  I still like to have my old IR remote within reach, in
case the phone goes and I need to turn it down without having to wait
for a wifi handshake!  The Controller is better in this respect, but
still not perfect.

I consider them complementary products - no reason not to get both, IMO
:)

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter & Windows Home Server

2008-06-30 Thread redgum

I think that while using a small system drive is appropriate for many
server systems, WHS thinks different. 

The general recommendation for WHS is to use the largest drive as the
system drive. This is because WHS partitions off a system drive and
then uses the physical drive as a 'landing zone'.

Depending on how keen you are to persevere with WHS you should try
re-installing WHS on the largest physical drive.

I've been using WHS for almost a year and, after some initial teething
problems with getting consistent playback from Slimserver, I have been
very impressed. The great backup system has already saved me once and I
find the whole thing just chugs away with minimal maintenance
day-in-day-out.

Which is why I'd like to be able to configure the SB to point it to a
SC server using a FQDN, rather than a quad.dotted.ip.address.

I don't have any answers, but I share your frustration - and have
shelved the Duet hoping that in around 6 months time the BS will have
been sorted.  Hell, I still cannot update firmware on the Controller

Have you ensured that only one of the routers is a live DHCP server and
that the devices aren't otherwise in conflict?

NB The Receiver is fine without a wi-fi AP, they establish an ad-hoc
link with the controller if necessary.

2008-06-30 Thread Michael Herger
> Anyway... SqueezeNetwork 7.0.1 and OSX Server 10.4.x is go!

Just in case you realise 7.0.1 doesn't scan your full collection: there was an 
issue in 7.0.1 which caused the scan to fail on _some_ systems (mainly largish 
collections). In this case you should get 7.0.2. If not: enjoy your music 
instead of caring about yet another update :-)
