Re: [slim] What did I do to get all my local FM radio station in favorites?
What I dont understand is why half of all the local FM channels display Artist, Song Title, Favorite name correctly; while the rest of the FM channels do not Are there any differences/similarities between channels that work and those that don't such as service provider (e.g. streamtheworld, liquidcompass, iheart) or format (e.g. WMA, AAC, MP3) ?

The odd thing is, since my last post I scanned one album that was showing double instances and it was fine. I then scanned all the flac files to see if there was a problem with them and they scanned fine. I then scanned all the mp3's and they scanned fine. So I tried the whole library again and belive it or not they scanned fine?? Also I had forgotten to disable my AV so it was running the whole time?? The only other change I made was to point SBS playlists to an empty folder as my playlists were slowing the scans down. So I pointed SBS back to my playlists and bingo the problem re-appeared. I know some if not all of my playlists are out of date as my files have moved so I am running without them at the moment. I will try rebuilding them and add them one at a time to SBS to see if that makes a difference.

Re: [slim] What did I do to get all my local FM radio station in favorites?
BPA, I really appreciate your time and help. Just to be clear the problem in the display is not limited to softsqueeze and other software players. I can see the same kind of mess up in SBS's display as well. Its obvious to me the feed itself includes metadata thats not specifically formatted for Squeezebox products. It looks like they were meant more for the iphone/itunes; as they mention Iphone Akamai and itunes in feed metadata. Here's what these radio stations look like in SBS: [image: http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h283/mkanet/Screenshot-1384.jpg] I'm not sure why it would look correctly for someone else's squeezebox hardware client; but not look correctly in SBS.

Re: [slim] What did I do to get all my local FM radio station in favorites?
I think Radiotime is the culprit. Normally metadata is just displayed without processing. The metadata you show seems to be formatted with id/value pairs expecting it to be processed again. My suspicion about Radiotime is my experience with BBC. I'm not sure if this is still the case but if you play the BBC WMA URL taken from BBC - then no metadata is shown about program info whereas if the BBC WMA URL is sourced from Radiotime - program info is displayed. To test this case where there is a difference in display for the same station, the initiating URL being played needs to be known and the format of the stream that ultimately plays. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84970 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

The way I see it the first point doesn't have to be too complicated - it is basically a two-level grouping: When you define a scenario, you create and assign one or more groups to the scenario and assign each player to exactly one group. I didn't really consider the second point - possibly because I rarely sync players during playback, but I can see how this could cause problems:-) You might also be right that it is overkill - and I don't have the use case for it at the moment either. The main reasons for the idea was: 1) It seemed logical that the app should always know and control the state of all players. 2) Sometimes players are logically connected and should never be unsynced (i.e. our living room and kitchen are not separated by walls so playing different music on those would be quite confusing so they are either both playing the same or one of them is switched off). If you have more players like this it would make sense to be able to keep them synced even when you change group setup. When users switch sync settings they typically do that for a particalur reason (i.e. starting a party, going to the bathroom, going to the garage ...). I only change sync settings if my wife wants to listen to something in the shower and I want to listen to something different in the living room or vice versa:) the rest I control by switching players on or off - but that may be because sync control from the players is so lousy:) Rarely I think this involves using multiple non-overlapping sync-groups at once (and even if: they could be activated with one click more). Probably true! From your scenarios I see an interesting use case though: Until now I only thought about synching a group of players - but not unsyncing. So I need to think a bit more about how users are supposed to get back from scenario 3 to 2. By making sure you don't just activate a group but a complete scenario that covers the sync state of all players;) One solution would be to unsync everyone else that is not in the group? That would probably satisfy my needs. I haven't really thought about what should happen to the playlist when a group is unsynced (partially or completely) - going from my scenario 1 to 2 or 3 to 2. In my case I would probably prefer that the old group playlist was transferred to all players involved, because sometimes the playlist belongs to the bathroom, and sometimes to the rest of the house. BTW: Again, based on my use, no matter how groups are defined and synced, it is important that syncing or unsyncing doesn't change the on/off state of players! -- ThomP ThomP's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15471 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83106 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Net::UDAP - SqueezeBox Receiver configuration tool
All countries of the European Union should now use wireless_region_id 14. There was a time France and Spain didn't free all the channels, and hence needed special settings, but AFAIK this time's over. -- sebp 'Last.fm' (http://www.last.fm/user/sebp) sebp's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11768 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57861 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] playlists empty on move to new pc
interesting, didn't know it had that capability but it makes sense after looking at the file in notepad. Now I think I just have to figure out how to get itunes and SBS to see the album artwork file, although I moved it over I can't even remember if it is an itunes or SBS file, I'll have to take a look at the old PC again before it gets repurposed...but if I remember correctly one of these programs will go on line to get it again anyway... thanks again tom -- tom.jelly sale items added daily to http://www.industrialtoolandmachineworks.com tom.jelly's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12712 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85011 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] I keep getting the popup to update squeezebox
The universal way to disable the popup is to accept the update.

[slim] Anyone thought about AIRPLAY support in Squeezebox Server?
It would be great if I could stream audio from my iPod Touch or iPad to the Squeezebox Server via Airplay. Is Apple making it possible for third parties to build Airplay reception into their devices?

On the Radio, press the back (left arrow) button and hold it for about 2 seconds until it backs out. But the popup will come back.
