To get help for problem please always give more info with the request. Softsqueeze is a soft player with only a few inbuilt decoders so it relies on other app for decoding. So problems can be format specific so describe issue in more detail ? 1. How much is the file playing too fast - compare time to play track against proper time to play ? 2. Format of file such as MP3, WMA, AAC, ALAC, Flac etc. 3. Characteristics of audio stream 44.1kHz, 48KHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz ? 16bit or 24 bit ? 1 or 2 channel ? -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87291 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

44.1/16 is v. standard and is played directly by jFlac and have no problems. Have your problem files been compressed by a non standard encoder ? You can test by re-encoding the problem files with standard Flac at a lower bit rate to see if problem goes away. Highly compressed file take longer to decode at startup and could explain your initial stutter - again test with a re-encoded problem file to isolate the issue. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87291 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

I would have thought it would be a reasonable common requirement to play audio from the PC you run SbS on, controlling output from the web interface. I agree that can be confusing for new users, but one fairly obvious reason is that they don't make any money on the software, only on the hardware. A second is that with very scarce development resources, they don't have the time/people to support any of the software players, all of which are either 3rd party contributions or perpetual beta. Third, for a lot of users the idea of SB is to play music _away_ from the computer. Why bundle a player with the server software when (a) many people aren't interested, and (b) it's easy to download separately? The last point also pertains to SB's cross-platform nature. For example, in my case, when I want a software player it's usually on Windows or Maemo (Nokia N800). But my SBS is on debian Linux, so a bundled player probably wouldn't be useful anyway. Vortexbox came with an integral player because it's designed to be a straight-out-of-the-box solution. The VBA people also make their money on hardware, not software, and including squeezeplay in the distro allows them to market the VBA as a player as well as a server. -- aubuti aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87245 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

If you want to you can change the names of the Loose Track albums to 19 - Loose or whatever - you'll still have 4 Adele albums showing but at least they will be uniquely named. I noticed this when I acquired some Mono recordings and I already had the Stereo ones. Another possibility might be to create kind of a double disc CD so that Disc-1 is the lossless and Disc-2 is the lossy (both Disc-1 Disc-2 folders as subfolders of 19) - I think this way you could keep the Album names identical (i.e., 19). --Tom -- Tom Hutcheson Tom Hutcheson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35487 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87155 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Why is it showing double albums on my Touch?
Tom Hutcheson;627732 Wrote: Are some of your Loose Tracks from the albums 19 or 21? What I notice is that the software seems to consider not just the Album title but also the path and the result is the way you're seeing the dupes. If you want to you can change the names of the Loose Track albums to 19 - Loose or whatever - you'll still have 4 Adele albums showing but at least they will be uniquely named. I noticed this when I acquired some Mono recordings and I already had the Stereo ones. Another possibility might be to create kind of a double disc CD so that Disc-1 is the lossless and Disc-2 is the lossy (both Disc-1 Disc-2 folders as subfolders of 19) - I think this way you could keep the Album names identical (i.e., 19). --Tom No...both 19 and 21 albums are in Adele folder where that folder is in Lossless Album. There are no other tracks of the same kind. The 19 and 21 are seperate folders too. This is frustrating!

Re: [slim] Why is it showing double albums on my Touch?
Are ALL tracks showing up in both instances of the albums, or are some tracks showing in one album and the rest in the other? This can happen if your titles are not EXACTLY the same on all tracks (extra trailing space, for example), or if you happen to have DISCNUMBER tags and they are not quite right, or Obvious question - have you done a rescan everything, or just a rescan new/changed? -- tcutting tcutting's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17402 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87155 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] How to create an auto updating playlist?
Have you checked out erland's suite of plugins yet (e.g., Dynamic Playlist, SQL Playlist, etc.)? One example of a playlist I created using his tools is a random play that includes only songs recorded during the period between 1962-1970, excluding holiday songs, and playing songs I've rated highly more frequently. It adds songs to the playlist 10 at a time, so anything recently ripped and scanned is included in the pool. -- GeeJay 2-SB3s, 1-Duet, 1-Touch...and an iPeng convert.

Re: [slim] Finally, the best Controller App arrives at iOS!
Long time lurker, seldom poster. I've been a Squeezebox user since '07, but followed it's development since it was just Slim Devices, limited availability, Squeezebox 3 era. Having seen the takeover by Logitech, I'm glad they haven't killed it off or run it into the ground. IMHO the development of an iOS/Android app is expected, and probably a little overdue. I feel that although the Sonos is technically an inferior product, it's marketted and sold far better. I installed the app on my iPad 2 and gave it a spin. Although it provides fairly basic functionality, if it's as good as the default infra-red remote control that ships the SB's, the vast majority of users have little to complain about. Especially when considering the price. A third party app will need to deliver a superior experience and/or features to stay viable. -- tktran tktran's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19764 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87212 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Need part # for 30-pin connector part inside transporter on front panel pcb
Hi, I've had a problem with a modification to my Transporter where an upgraded transformer came loose in shipping and broke one of the 30 pin connectors on the front PCB behind the display and damaged the ribbon cable. I was able to get new 8 ribbon cables from Molex as part of a sample request, but the connectors I have ordered are the wrong ones and these parts are apparently very hard to locate. I'm pretty sure the pitch is 0.5mm, but this new connector (Molex part # 52559-3052) isn't seating properly in place of the old one. So if anyone can tell me the proper part # for the 30 pin SMD connector on the front PCB (which is also the same one as on the main PCB board) I'd be forever grateful.

Re: [slim] Android Controller App
Using the hardware volume buttons. Server is 7.5.4 on a SheevaPlugs. Both the volume and the volume-display are jumping (well - the display first, but real Squeezbox follows soon). It seems that it starts back at 0 every second try. Using hardware buttons while not on the Now Playing screen? I can confirm I'm seeing odd behaviour there too (eg. not going to 100%, always starting at 0). Will have to investigate. Would you mind filing a bug report? On my HTC Desire I definitely cannot use the album or artist list. Only if I don't have a scrolling speed faster than two albums/seconds. If I I'm sorry, I might have asked already... how large is your library, how many items would be in those lists? As I said this is working fine for me (440 artists, 1233 albums). I can flick through them, jump around, drag it etc. While it's not super smooth, I haven't seen it lock up in several weeks :-/. do it faster it instantly hangs and feels like it is crashed. Not a solution, but interesting none the less: sometimes rotating the device would unlock it... -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Any chance of you looking further into the problem? There's a bug report over at the Sencha Touch forums (http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthread.php?104155-FIXED-131-Android-Scrolling-Issues). We're trying to re-open that bug report as quite obviously it's not fixed. But I don't know how much they (sencha) can do about it. On my HTC Desire S the srolling issue renders the app unusable :( Which scrolling issue btw?

To be a bit more specific, do you have any ideas of what kind of extra
functionality you (or other users) would need in a third party app to
be willing to spend $10 instead of using the free Logitech app ?
