Hi all not sure whether this is the right place for this question, but after searching the forum I can't find an answer... Is it possible to access a squeezebox library from a remote location over the internet? What I want is to access my home library from another house, using a pc there, then stream the file to the stereo via either another squeezebox device or some other product, or possibly just connect a laptop to a stereo with good old fashioned cables! So for example, if I was visiting my brother and I wanted to play a new track from my library, could I access my own squeezebox library over the internet?

Re: [slim] Announcing SqueezePad - the first dedicated iPad App to controll your SqueezeBoxen !
Aha - your Squeezboxes are synced. And you are looking at the progess-bar of a Squeezebox that is not playing anything (because it is turned off) but still synced. So this explains a) why the progress isn't running continously = because the playback is stopped for this particular Squeezebox b) why the progress still jumps = because the Squeezebox is synced and the server still updates the progress from time to time, anticipating that you might turn on your Squeezebox later on and expect it to show the same state as the running Squeezebox. 60 seconds is the maximum status update interval for a Squeezebox. As the Squeezebox is turned off, the server has no other events that might update the status with a faster rate. There is only the regular 60s 'keep alive' status update (which then abruptly changes the progress because of the synchronization). The only 'proper' way to handle this (avoiding the jumps for turned off and synced Squeezeboxes) is just to have a big 'this Squeezebox is turned off' banner, not rendering cover image, playlist and current state. (Like on a real Squeezebox one only sees the 'off' screensaver just with a clock - so on a real Squeezebox one would not realize as well, that the progress is kept in sync every 60 seconds behind the scenes) Unfortunately this comes at a cost: right now one can start a song even if a Squeezebox is turned off. Interesting case indeed. But I don't think that I can change that behaviour. I guess when you turn one Squeezebox off you should just switch back to your still playing Squeezebox in SqueezePad to see a running progess bar. -- 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=80553 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Ethernet Appears Disconnected Please Check Your Network Connection
As stated previously a single player is located at location 1, while the other two players were 100 klm's away at location 2. The player at location 1 was displaying the same symptoms as the two players at location 2, as described in the first post. The problem with player 1 resolved by changing the server version from 7.5.3 to 7.5.2. 7.6.0 also works with ethernet but there appears to be a volume gain issue.. The two players at location 2 appear to have experienced failure of the wired Ethernet connections simultaneously (meaning between uses). Server versions between 7.5.1 and 7.6.0. and firmware between 131 to 135 have been tested with these two other players and there has been no success with achieving wired Ethernet connection as the 'setup wired Ethernet connection process stalls' with, Ethernet Appears Disconnected Please Check Your Network Connection. Something happened to the 2 players at location 2 that did not affect 3 routers, 4 PC's, several network switches and 3 voip ata connectors plus several network IP cameras that were all connected on the same LAN. To further this mystery the two players at location 2 were separated by around 40 meters of Cat5e cable with several switches, routers and networked devices interspersed throughout this distance. Further evidence that it is not a local infrastructure wired LAN network problem is that the new SB Touch and SB Duet that were installed over the weekend in place of the 2 players at location 2, using the same upstream hardware, have both connected via wired Ethernet without a problem. These 2 problem SB Classics will still connect via wireless. These 2 problem SB Classics have been also tested at location 1 and the issue remains. From testing and process of elimination to date, it appears that wired Ethernet has failed on these 2 SB Classics for reasons unknown, while all other networked devices on the LAN remain unaffected. Resetting by holding 1, +, and brightness on separate occasions while applying power to both the units has been performed many times. It appears these 2 players have become junk unless wireless connections are acceptable. -- smithw smithw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44731 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86169 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Help with modifying convert.conf file
aubuti;618333 Wrote: Huh? The Touch doesn't transcode. But it will play MP3 natively. Since you refer to the MP3s you have, what would you transcode them to? The more common situation is users in limited bandwidth environments having the server transcode from lossless to MP3 (see 'bitrate limiting', which is a per-player setting). I was thinking about it the wrong way and yes, it doesn't make sense. :) But what I need to do is increase the sample rate of radio station streamed MP3s to a minimum of 44.1 kHz sample rate so they don't sound like the Chipmunks when played with Squeezeslave. -- vrette (2) SB Touch, (1) SB3, (1) SBR, Cambridge Audio 840AV2, 340T, DacMagic, BW 683, HSU VFT2-MK3, Logitech Harmony 880, SB Server - Asus E35M1-M PRO, Win 7 64 bit, and a bunch of other stuff... vrette's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15256 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86310 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Yes, that's true. I modified a custom-convert.conf file. I'll try to remember to post when I get home from work.

Moose is a UI. It does however support running squeezeslave or Softsqueeze. What's nice is that you can have Moose run at startup in Windows, with an icon in the task tray, and it can fire off squeezeslave without any command window. -- tcutting tcutting's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17402 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86310 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Yes this is still a 7.6 server problem. Update lying around on some far away server, waiting for some Apple employee finding and 'testing' it.
