Re: [slim] iPeng on iPad - How should it look like?

They will send you a free sample if you want to check them out. Once in a while they do a major sale on the sleeves. So I just stocked up in the past.

Re: [slim] Announce: New Squeezeslave 0.9 Release available on sourceforge
Hi, Sound stutters with squeezeslave. I downloaded the last version on the svn and compiled it without problem. I have a eeepc 702 with hda-intel sound chip. The stuttering is not very important, but enough to be quite anoying. I'm using mandriva linux with xfce. It uses pulseaudio. Without any option, squeeslave uses a lot of cpu (around 60%), wich is a lot even on my very slow cpu. So I tried the different devices. squeezeslave -L Output devices: 0: HDA Intel: ALC662 rev1 Analog (hw:0,0) 1: front 2: surround40 3: surround51 4: surround71 5: pulse 6: dmix * 7: default 8: /dev/dsp and the best so far is 0. With that device set, it uses only 4% to 9% of cpu. Using dmix causes a crash at startup and pulse makes no difference with default. Squeezeslave is not the only one player to stutter on my pc. VLC has the same problem, but totem gives a perfect sound. Anyway, I have all my stats on squeezeboxserver and I like this program, so i'd rather use squeezeslave. I've googled a lot and didn't found a solution. Some help would be gratefully appreciated ! -- Antoniop Antoniop's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=63966 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Can you still purchase IR remotes?
Web161- As Catbus indicates, Touch remote is fairly similar to SB3 remote, and should work fine (a few differences... most notably the Brightness button which I believe may be required for firmware update if you don't have configured for auto). Boom remote is less $, and supports basic functions on SB3. Older players are also supposed to support JVC IR codes as well. -- tcutting tcutting's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17402 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80485 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Editing FLAC files
sox has a silence option for removing silence (digital zero or below a certain specified threshold value) from files. It will not molest FLAC tags. http://sox.sourceforge.net/sox.html -- Daverz Daverz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80486 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Can you still purchase IR remotes?
Sorry everyone I sounded too melodramatic earlier. I've since calmed down. I guess I'm not as comfortable with change as I should be. I still get a lot of enjoyment from the Slim hardware. I guess I'm just getting cranky in my old age. The 10-minute wait on the support line was something I never experienced in the days of Slim. You always got a person right away. I miss that.

Re: [slim] Can you still purchase IR remotes?
While the old IR remotes are no longer for sale, there may still be some stock. For some time, my old SB3 remote (the ovalish one) was behaving erratically (sometimes button presses just didn't do anything) and, on the advice of someone else on this forum, I contacted support. They wouldn't sell me one, but they sent me one for free. If you really need a new remote because yours is broken, there may still be some left for you. -- eq72521 eq72521's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1512 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80485 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

I'm not exactly certain when they stopped selling them, but the newest ones can't be more than a few months old. If you asked politely you could probably find someone in these forums willing to sell you an SB2/3/Classic remote. A lot of people here have bought numerous SB2/3/Classics over the years and have remotes lying around that they've never used. -- JJZolx Jim JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80485 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Where are your CDs?
Goodsounds;56 Wrote: I don't see it as a moral or enforcement issue but rather a practical one. Under the current state of play, the creation of new recorded music is not a financially viable activity. That's why so many fewer new recordings are being produced these days. The recorded music business will continue to wilt, and perhaps die, unless the problem is solved. It would be great if everyone who likes recorded music would obtain what they want through normal commercial channels and avoid facilitating others not doing likewise. Don't assume the solution is someone else's concern. So you are suggesting that CDs should not be passed on? My CDs would become landfill as soon as have ripped them then. As someone who hates waste I am much less happy with this solution than I am with passing them on! I cannot agree with your sentiments about the dwindling amount of recorded music. There's absolutely massess around, and more every second of every day.. hardly any produced on that wasteful and inefficient medium ultimately destined for landfill, the CD though. Maybe you're just not looking in the right place. Phil. I've always wondered why someone with a responsible IT job in the banking sector used their real name on forums such as these. -- ModelCitizen Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known Last.fm/user/ModelCitizen ModelCitizen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=446 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80369 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
