[slim] Start on one Squeezebox; continue on another
Hello all. I'm thinking about taking the Squeezebox plunge, but I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer too. If I have multiple SB units, can I use one to start listening to Pandora, then go to a different room, turn on another SB unit and have that pick up the same Pandora feed? Does this work with MP3s stored on my computer? To do this do I have to do anything on a computer, or can I just do this from the units themselves? I know multiple units can play the same thing, but I didn't know if they all had to be on and start playing them at the same time. thanks! -- gjb gjb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81468 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Start on one Squeezebox; continue on another
very cool. But it makes me think of a couple follow up questions. So, using the SB Boom in the bedroom I turn on Pandora, or start playing an MP3. I go to the kitchen and turn on the SB Radio and sync to what the Boom is playing. Can the SB Radio then be used to change the song on both units, or is it just going to play whatever is happening on the Boom in the other room? One more question - I start the SB Boom in the bedroom and turn on Pandora. From the Boom can I turn on the SB Radio in the other room and have it start playing Pandora, or do I need to physically go to the SB Radio and turn it on and sync it? If that doesn't work, can I turn on and start playing units from the computer or iPeng iPhone app?

Yes, the Radio, being one of the new generation of Squeezeboxes, can be used to control what's playing on both units. In fact, the Radio can be used to control what's playing on the Boom while something else (or nothing, for that matter) is playing on the Radio itself..

The Boom, being of the old generation, cannot control other players, except for those that are already synced to it.

Re: [slim] Occasional long pauses during playback - mysqld.exe culprit?
I've been having the same problem intermittently. I'm running SB Server on a Vortexbox Appliance (Fedora Linux) with Custom Browse and Custom Scan activated. I have about 2500 CD's loaded already but I'm very much still in add mode. I believe the problem is that rescans are triggered by new additions and I probably don't have the proper override settings to avoid them. Custom Scan seems to disable the generic scan settings. I need to learn more about Custom Scan to find out if such an override is possible. I'm not sure that it is. What I've found works best for me is to avoid ripping CD's for at least an hour prior to a listening session. I also run overnight clear library and rescan everything about once a week. The problem still appears occasionally but far less frequently. It is annoying and I would prefer greater control over rescans. P.S.

Re: [slim] Start on one Squeezebox; continue on another
Synced players acts as one player so changes can be made on any of them . As described all the new players with the color display (controller,touch,radio,squeezeplay) can control any player on the same server, besides themselves, icluding all old models too . There is also a cool plugin called other players where you can grab the playlist from another player or send the playlist to another player with out syncing, I use it sometimes. -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE for the rear ch.

Re: [slim] Which NAS?
wildgoose;570335 Wrote: I have a Netgear ReadyNas DUO and I find the performance of SC to be quite disappointing. It can play music, but a lot of operations are just slow. My 8 year old PC (Pentium4 2.2ghz system) runs SC really fast and I would be very happy if the NAS can perform at this level. I don't have a large music collection, about 30G of flacs/mp3s. Reading this thread, I am curious about the performance of the Synology and the small form factor PCs such as fit-pc and vortexbox comparing to the ReadyNas Duo. Amazon is currently selling the fit-pc (older model?) for $199. I am wondering whether it's an adequate system to run SC. I am really intrigued by the 6 watt power usage (my computer in OFF mode consumes 6 watts!). How does the fit-pc, synology, and vortex compare with the a standard P4-2.26 system (single-core, no HT)? I originally got the ReadyNAS Duo and quickly switched to a ReadyNAS Pro (Amazon.com took back the Duo no questions asked). Squeezebox Server went from sucking on the Duo to being awesome on the Pro. The Pro is way more expensive than other options that might be just as good, but as has been pointed out on these forums before, you just don't hear anyone complaining about running Squeezebox Server on their ReadyNAS Pro, which has to be worth something. -- mps mps's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36351 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80747 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Can you even produce M3U playlists with iTunes?

Sorry, I have no experience with iTunes, so I can't help you with any of that. However, if you can get a working m3u, you can just copy it into your sbs playlists folder.

Re: [slim] I see vortexbox in a vm as a good solution
Inspired by this thread I thought I'd give Vortexbox a spin as a guest OS under Ubuntu 10.04, using VmWare's free VMplayer. This was way easier than trying out the distro on bare metal, which I have done once before. I was highly impressed by how complete and functional Vortexbox is these days. Yummy, in fact :-) Since my host is a laptop, I don't have a reason to want keep a Virtual Vortexbox running on such a machine, but I did use it to rip a new CD into my collection which it did efficiently and correctly. Overall, if I were to switch to Vortexbox in a dedicated machine as a storage appliance, I think I'd still install it on bare metal, but as a test environment VMware/Virtualbox has considerable merit. Furthermore, I have enjoyed getting reacquainted with Vortexbox, which I may not have bothered to do had it entailed dedicating a machine to it just for testing purposes.
