Re: [slim] Shoutcast favorites keep breaking
I've had good luck finding streams on Shoutcast I like then googling to find their website, where I can usually find their direct URL, then input that into my favorites manually. No more broken faves for me. Stupid shoutcast Pandora favorites work great - never break, at least in my experience -- even with their free acct. Rhapsody favorites work great too. -- 86atc250r 86atc250r's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15476 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80061 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] iPeng on iPad - How should it look like?
Well, as I've stated before I also don't believe that the most easy to understand UI is always the best one because given a lack of space or complexity you want to display at a time it means deep menus, lots of dialogs and generally a slower use. Which is inefficient and annoying for long-term users. iPeng is supposed to be used long term. That said: some of the issues mentioned here _will_ go away on iPad. There is no need to swipe between subpages, there's enough space for controls to show up a playlist or a list of players/music sources. There's also enough space to permanently show basic player controls so there is no need for a NowPlaying screen. A lot of things will be easier because instead of grouping functions in different screens you can group them in different areas of the screen. That said: the first incarnation of iPeng will not go much further than doing that plus making appropriate views for iPad. Long term, however, I believe there are even much better things you can do with that UI because iPad has the potential to show DIFFERENT elements that are RELATED simultaneously. The most obvious one of these is probably a current playlist to which you can drag an item from the library but there's even more to this then that. I believe it will take some time until the full potential of the iPad get's exploited and I'm not only speaking about iPeng here. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74581 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] iPeng on iPad - How should it look like?
dizzysnakepilot;558337 Wrote: > easy to use for a novice I disagree with that. I don't think the GUI should be dummied down. The benefit of the iPad is the bigger screen so although more information can be put onto it simultaneously, at a certain point it becomes too cluttered if too much is seen at once. On the other hand, I don't know if it is possible to have a "settings" panel where the user can choose which panels and modes are visible at any one time, then each user can customize to their own preferences. Bottom line, I vote for an interface which works for anyone who reads the manual rather than for someone who has never used it before. And this is not a video game, it is a controller. Once the song is picked, hopefully the new user will "get it" anyway, so it becomes a non-issue. -- mortslim mortslim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11039 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74581 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Thanks for the reply. I couldn't find it again searching Shoutcast. I've had it with them anyway, that's ridiculous. However it was very easy to search by bitrate there. Found it searching Radiotime and am once again basking in 320 bliss. We'll see how long it lasts. No 'Internet Radio' search on Ipeng and was too lazy to get out of the easy chair.

Re: [slim] iPeng on iPad - How should it look like?
I'd like the interface to be less mode oriented, that is, having to keep track of which screen I am in to perform an operation. This might look like a single main screen, rather than the 4 or more main screens in the iPod version. The multiple screens works ok once you internalize their relationship by swipes, but i like to give the controller to a guest and say 'put anything on', which then means I have to stand there and say, 'hit the blue pentagon for this' and 'swipe this way for that function' I think an interface that is easy to use for a novice might also be more convenient for power users as well.

Re: [slim] Shoutcast favorites keep breaking
Unfortunately, this is one of the stupid silly things that will always keep Internet Radio out of the main stream. Stations themselves change their stream URL's and/or stream aggregators like ShoutCast change their URL for that stream (usually more often than the station itself). All on a whim, no reason nor logic. Imagine how soon people would stop listening to the radio's in their cars if there local stations moved around the dial every couple of weeks? You will just have to keep changing these in your Favorites. Go to Internet Radio > Search > Avro and replace your current station URL. -- toby10 toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80061 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
