Re: [slim] Rebuffering is ruining the Squeezebox experience
My experience of the SB3 is that rebuffering over wi-fi appears to be a stragely random act. One day the system will be working fine, the next I'll have issues, especially on radio, and even on FLAC files played from my HDD. Therefore, I do not believe 100% that it's an SB3 issue, but something to do with interference from elsewhere, which is not regular, but intermittent. Programmes like Netstumbler tell you which router channel you and your neighbours are on, but it doesn't show the level of interference from non-wi-fi sources such as cordless phones or microwave ovens. FYI inSSIDer has a companion, but chargeable app that shows you the level of interference in your environment that is not down to your router. In my own case, I installed Solwise 85mbps homeplug Ethernet adapters. On my ring main I get on average 68-72mbps speeds. The SB3 runs perfectly when wired (famous last words). I would prefer wi-fi, but there just seem to be too many variables to ensure perfect operation. My environment is not all within my control though, which is why I am reluctant to just blame the wireless SB3 and its ever changing s/w. On a different note, what is the need for daily changes to the SC os? Even I know enough about s/w to recognise that constant change almost guarantees instability for the user. -- Squeezemeister Squeezemeister's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31430 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65719 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Rebuffering is ruining the Squeezebox experience
Also note that plenty of things interfere with WiFi signals, such as microwaves ovens, and cell phones. Depending on your router, they may have conflicting (or closely conflicting) signals.

I'm using Windows XP professional. The BelCanto USB link is a driverless device and seems to successfully bypass KMixer with other applications.

Buffer underun doesn't recover itself..., and may (just possibly) be related to this issue. 6) It is quite possible that nothing is wrong with the presently released hardware and software in respect of streaming performance under network congestion conditions, but there is also inconclusive evidence to the contrary, which makes it worth investigating.

[slim] Pandora One ?
Upgraded to Pandora One which is 192kbps and I am curious if SC is streaming at that bit rate now becuase SC indicates only 128kbps. If I use the web or the new Pandora One App the songs are streamed at 192kbps. Is there a way to enable the higher bit rate via SC?

Re: [slim] Unable to play media from subscription service due to inability to authenticate
I'm having the same issue with authenticating to the service. The demo does indeed play on the Squeezebox by using the following URL: http://demo:d...@live.str3am.com:2530/demo However, using my actual login credentials in the format below results in a HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized message on the Squeezebox: http://username:passw...@live.str3am.com:2530/secure The username has an '@' in the middle of it. The '@' in the middle of the username (u...@domain.net) may mess with the correct syntax for HTTP authentication. I did try to substitute a '%40' for the @' (escape code for @), thinking this may remedy this issue, but the result was another error message '401 Authentication Required. Not sure how the syntax should go in a case like this.

In hindsight that is about the only thing that makes sense, given one player could succeed and the other not. But I was assuming you had used DHCP, so I didn't go there.

Re: [slim] Rebuffering is ruining the Squeezebox experience
Are you sure you are using the least occupied WLAN channel? Check with Netstumbler how many of your neighbors are trying to use the same channel as you. If any other channel is less occupied, move there. Or switch on automatic channel selection, if your router supports it. I got hold of Netstumbler and saw 8 other Access points within range, on variouis channels. Channel 13 seemed to offer best S/N, so I went with it. Didn't solve problem. I then moved SqueezeBox three feet, signal strength went up from 20% to 60%, and it played FLAC for 3 hours without a glitch. !!! Unfortunately, there's no way it can stay in that position normally. So I've ordered a couple of Homeplugs.

[slim] Rhapsody and Pandora periodically unvailable
I have a transporter,boom and squeezebox. Periodically for no reason that I can tell, I will periodically get the message with Rhapsody that this player does not support Rhapsody. A Squeezebox2or higher is required. At the same time if I try and use Pandora I will get a message You must be a subscriber to use Pandora from this device. I will get the message on all player. Nothing I do seems to make a difference, but over times hours to days the messages will go away and I can use both services. It always happens with both services at the same time. I can access my personal library without problem This have happened over mutiple versions of Squeezecenter. I can access Rhapsody and Pandora directly on my computer during these times.

[slim] Controller: Sort order in Artist category differs from sort order in Albums category
When browsing Albums, I get the desired sort order Artist, Year, Album. However, when browsing Artists, the selected Artist's albums are not sorted by year. I have set the Controller setting Settings-Advanced-Album sort order correctly, however this setting does not seem to affect how the albums are sorted when browsing artists. I believe this might be a bug in the latest 7.3 and 7.4, because I recall that this was done correctly in some older release. When the album sort order is set to sort by Artist, Year, Album then Artists' albums should also be sorted by Year, Album when browsing Artists. This seems to be broken unless there is a Artist sort order settings in the SBC that I have overlooked... My ignorance or a bug?

No, the sort order doesn't apply once you're into the artist's list of albums.

Even trying to include this as a skin in the main code branch to squeezebox, but I'll need some heavy testing before I do that. Let me know if you can help me test.
