[slim] Squeezeplay prevents screen sleep
Hi, I'm using Squeezeplay on OSX (10.6), and I've noticed that it prevents the screen of my iMac to sleep. Normally my screen goes to sleep after 10 min, but with Squeezeplay, it keeps on all the time. Also, when I force my screen off (Lock Screen), after 10 sec the screen pops on again due to Squeezeplay. I tried the Screen settings in Squeezeplay, but without success. I assume this is because Squeezeplay wants to keep the system awake. I'm trying to limit the power consumption of all my electronic toys, and putting a screen off is definitely one of the things to do here. So it would be great if this behaviour of Squeezeplay could be changed. cakes -- cakes Server : Squeezecentre 7.5.3 on iMac / OSX10.6.6.

Re: [slim] 7.53 not recreating my.cnf
The tables I setup for SBS were INNODB / latin1 as that seemed to be what the built in MySQL in SBS was using, and, at the time I was aiming at just making it work. Now, I'm reading about MySQL performance. It looks like SBS is not at all a transactional system, and, as such, INNODB is going to be slower (transactional safety) than ISAM. Does that make sense? Is there any reason I can't just switch? I realize that SQL is supposedly platform neutral, but that's only if you don't use any extensions. I've no idea if MySQL INNODB has extensions that ISAM doesn't. Any idea?

[slim] MusicIP data on ramdisk
You can set the MusicIP service to read/write the mip datafile wherever, just by modifying mmm.ini. ...But there -doesn't- seem to be a way to set the MusicIP app to use a data file in a non-standard place. Not something you'd care about if you just use the service, but if you -do- use the app there's a lot to be said for having them both access the same data file. I've noticed that clicking on the data file brings up the app. In general, when you click on a data file in Windows, it just invokes the associated app with the full path to whatever you clicked on as the first parameter. So there -is- a way to move the data file and have the app access it in a non-standard place. You can just change the shortcut that links to the app. Right click on it, pick 'properties' and append a path to your new/moved data file in the 'target' field. So, for example, I changed my 'target' from -C:\Program Files\MusicIP\MusicIP Mixer\MusicMagicMixer.exe- to -C:\Program Files\MusicIP\MusicIP Mixer\MusicMagicMixer.exe R:\MusicIP Mixer\default.m3lib- Apologies if you already know this stuff.

I always have to restart my laptop for it to reconnect or I have to reconfigure my SB every time.

Re: [slim] Boom playing commercials on Pandora
No, SB users do not get ad-free Pandora with a free account. Pandora reportedly starting putting ads on their free streams quite some time ago, around the time they introduced the 40 hours/month limit. I forget when, but it was at least a year ago. If you upgrade to Pandora One you won't get ads or monthly limits, but you will only get 128kbps to your SB, as the 192kbps Pandora One streams only go to Pandora's web-based players. -- aubuti aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85248 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] SqueezePad or iPeng?
michael123;606896 Wrote: thanks! Which features are unique to iPeng? It doesn't have a lot of really unique features in itself, OK, a few: server rescan, manual WOL, Lyrics screen saver, playlist screen saver, some additional search features, relative volume synchronization, show all tracks of an artist,... OK maybe not so few after all. What it does differently than SqueezePad is that there is a lot of stuff that is hard-coded into iPeng to allow faster access than through the deep menu structure of the SqueezePlay interface SqueezePad is using. One example is player management. In iPeng you can control all of your players in one place (through a drop-down menu), change their powerstate and volume and you can change synchronization settings. In SqueezePlay you have to do this through settings menus. Another example is Search: iPeng has a search entry field on the main screen where you can enter a search text and get immediate results, in SqueezePad you need to go through the menu to get to search. This gives SqueezePad a somewhat cleaner interface (all the functionality in iPeng has to go somewhere), granted. Speed differences are mainly due to two aspects: 1. iPeng uses much bigger artwork, for stuff like a cover wall. This puts additional load on the server to generate these images the first time 2. iPeng shows more information in library menus (Albums, Tracks), the more complex queries to get that information can indeed be slower. In this case it's true that iPeng trades performance for functionality. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote and *New: iPeng for iPad*, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84957 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

There's a manual override for the MAC (iPeng detects is automatically but you can also enter your own one). You can even set two for both of your servers if you like, just add the storage server manually in the settings. iPeng will think it is a Squeezebox Server but that doesn't really matter if you don't care about a few unsuccessful contact requests on port 9000 :) You usually don't need to specify an IP address unless your server is behind a router and if it is, you can specify that in iPeng, too :) -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote and *New: iPeng for iPad*, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84957 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Video version of Squeezebox?
Hello all, I am new to the community as I just purchased a Squeezebox Touch and I love it. So much so I am desperately looking for a video version of what it does to stream to my hdtv. Obviously Apple TV does this but I am not interested in that as I understand that it cannot play mp4 files that were user created which is a deal breaker for me. Having something that can connect to the net and stream netflix seems like a natural necessity at this point but for me I am more interested in converting my entire SD-DVD collection to mp4 for lower bandwidth and to rid myself of the space the DVDs currently take up. Anyone else out there have something similarly setup to this?

Re: [slim] SqueezePad or iPeng?
For the records: When Pippin talks of 'manual WOL' it just means you have to manually press a button. Automatic WOL (i.e. sending out a WOL to a configured target on a regular basis) exists in SqueezePad as well. As often said SqueezePad focusses on keeping stuff that you need everyday easy and intuitive. Things that one only needs once a month or less are left in their original menus. And lets face it: both depend on the SqueezeBox server which limits what both can do most. This just leaves some small areas like multiple screensavers or how to render the synchronization state. So its not just single users that write me stuff like this after fiddling with ipeng and its interface for a long time, I tried squeeze pad and was immediately hooked. Very clear, very fast, a joy to use. Yes ipeng has more features, but to control your squeezes squeezepad is more than enough. which underlines this is a good philosophy. In the end it's up to the user but personally I would never trade feature count against my joy to actually use the stuff ;) -- bluegaspode Big Screen for great Boxes available now at your AppStore: *'Squeezebox + iPad = SqueezePad ' (www.squeezepad.com)* - -now featuring streaming to iPad!- Want to see a Weather Forecast on your Radio/Touch/Controller ? = why not try my 'Weather Forecast Applet' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73827) Want to use the Headphones with your Controller ? = why not try my 'Headphone Switcher Applet' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67139) Setup: 1x SB-Controller+Receiver (Duet), 1xSB-Boom. 2xSB-Radio Server (7.5.x) running on SheevaPlug (Ubuntu) with attached Western Digital MyBook Essential. bluegaspode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31651 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84957 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
