Re: [slim] What's the Connection? Community and Logitech
The ongoing 7.6 fiasco set me thinking. Just what is the connection between this Forum and Logitech? Just seems that some posters here seem to have 'insider' knowledge, and certainly the Logitech support staff often direct queries here. Ok, here's my attempt of a reply: These forums were built when SlimDevices was an independent company. It was the main communication channel between SD and its clients. Some of us would probably remember the times when all of this was still run on mailing lists, and there were heated debates whether a web based solution would be better to communicate with the community... Years after Logitech acquired SD, they wanted to move everything over to the official forums.logitech.com site, as a single point of contact. We were able to convince them that this was a poor plan, because a.) some community members are extremely helpful and more knowledgeable than any hired support agent would ever be, b.) the official forum software is lacking in features, c.) there was no way they could handle the traffic of this forum, let alone import the history, d.) this was much more than a support channel. It's a community. A lot of the postings aren't support requests, but discussions among community members. Thus it was decided that forums.slimdevices.com would stay as the community forums, with no official logitech representatives, while over at logitech.com support would be monitoring reports. As some might have learned, even support accepts the community as more knowledgeable and often refers clients over here... -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] MonkeySqueeze
@Echo No need to change your present config. You can install Squeezebox Server on the PC and run it at the same time as the version on your NAS. When you wish to listen to music using MediaMonkey, run MM and the PC version of Squeezebox Server and direct any Squeezebox devices to connect to the PC server. Just make sure that the music library names in each server are different. Also as indicated in the user guide the PC version of Squeezebox server does not have to be linked to a library folder just an empty folder. No need to wait for the library to load into the server. Remember the original configuration remains the same and not changed in any way. Hope you find this information helpful.

If one planned to get the Harmony 1000, it would maybe be smart to wait for the lower priced Revue. If you planned to get the Harmony 900 because you need RF, the situation is also a bit different because currently the 900 feels pretty expensive and even more so if you can get a Revue with Wifi remote for $99 Maybe the Revue price drop could affect Harmony prices, but I don't think so. When you read why they are dropping the Revue price you realize it's because it's a new market and they want to establish the product, this isn't they case for the Harmony remotes, they are already in an established market and they have both fairly cheap and more expensive models. Well, the Revue also has two hard button remote options: The Mini Controller $129 and the Keyboard $99. http://www.logitech.com/en-us/smartTV/accessories They should lower the price of these accessories given that the Revue has the same price or lower price than its accessories. I'm always reluctant to get the first generation of any gadget because subsequent generations usually have more functionality, have the bugs worked out and are less expensive. That's the reason I did not jump at the Revue in the first place. I considered it as a possible IR Universal Remote, but at $249 it was out of the question.

The official Logitech App won't work with SqueezePlayer. Here the encrypted Spotify streams are sent directly to a Squeezebox, SqueezePlayer cannot handle those encrypted streams. The plugin from triode should work though. It sends FLAC to the player which SqueezePlayer is able to decode. Are you sure you used the correct Spotify menu (i.e. deinstalled the Logitech App). On a 7.5 server the Spotify menu from triode can be found under 'Radios' (if I'm not mistaken).

Why is it that SBS doesnt install with all the plugins disabled? Its really frustrating to have to abort the scanning process to remove iTunes, MusicIP and about 15 other clutter plugins! Wouldnt it be better to have a simple initial installation and give it a clear run of a full scan with just the data you want in the database.

Re: [slim] SBS Why so much baggage as default?
MusicIP is loaded but not enabled by default. And the iTunes plugin won't do anything unless you have an iTunes library and SBS finds that library in an expected location. I think the philosophy is to make many of the features offered by plugins available by default rather than requiring new users to figure out how to enable them. It's expected that the built-in plugins are well tested enough to not cause problems with scanning or other server operation. But I'm like you.

Hehe... interesting you mention this (and it doesn't only apply to IR
remotes): I still often grab the good old Controller to quickly skip a
track or change the volume, as firing up iPeng/SqueezePad/Controller
app
takes too long...
That's when I use the Harmony remote, the Controller is to far away
since I need to have it in the dock for it to have battery when I need
it and the Controller dock is not standing in the middle of my living
room table. The Harmony on the other hand is placed on the living room
table. The Harmony needs to go into its charge station with a few weeks
interval, but its battery consumption is no where near the Controller.
Besides this, the Controller isn't able to switch output on my Sherwood
amplifier and doesn't understand that it should change the volume on the
Sherwood amplifier and not on the Squeezebox Touch.
And on top of this, even if the Controller was able to solve the above,
it won't enter my living room table as their is only place for one
remote there and the Controller is never going to be able to control
all my other IR based devices in a user friendly way, too few hard
buttons on it to make that possible.
I could think of mixing:
- A simple Harmony for simple duties
- An iPhone/iPad app with a IR blaster system for more complex
operations
The problem is just that any non geeky IR blaster system I've seen so
far has been more expensive than the a Harmony remote which can solve
all the needs.
Maybe the $99 Revue with included IR-blasters could be an option, if
Logitech would sell it outside US.

I quote:
The company now plans to *improve its remote control* and set-top-box
product line and establish itself in the business to business market.
*Logitech also plans to improve its digital music offerings* and focus
on peripherals for tablet devices like the Apple iPad.
I wonder what this means, doesn't sound too bad :-)
Not sure if it's just something the article author has made up, but it
sounded like it was something coming from a reliable source.
Of course, digital music doesn't have to mean Squeezebox.

Re: [slim] Logitech CEO Steps down
Logitech built its success on -peripherals-. With the old CEO back in charge I would expect a return to that rather than throwing considerably more money into either the Revue or Squeezebox, both of which require a fair amount of dedicated marketing. They also require a sizable shift in consumers' perception of Logitech itself, and that doesn't happen quickly. Expect more iPod/iPad docks and speakers. Acquiring someone like Audioengine would make 10x as much sense for them as continuing Squeezebox development. With a little luck, maybe they'll sell off the Squeezebox product line. Few of the positive predictions for Logitech Squeezebox ever came to pass. The economies of scale and Logitech's buying and manufacturing prowess never really brought down pricing. The development and QA teams were greatly expanded for a while, but they burned up all of their energy shoving new products out the door. -- JJZolx JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89129 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Rhapsody no longer plays on Squeezebox Classic
I can confirm that the bug is somehow related to the wireless bridge settings. Even though I was NOT and never have used the wireless bridging option, when I connected an ethernet cable and explicitly disabled wifi bridging, it solved the problem. I had the same symptoms that others have reported. I have a Squeezebox Classic, and when the problem started, I was running Squeezebox Server 7.4. (Not sure what firmware version I had.) A couple weeks ago, Rhapsody stopped working. All other apps worked fine. In Rhapsody, I could browse/search for albums/tracks, make a selection, it would say it was buffering, then act like it was playing, but no sound. I tried switching from Squeezebox Server to mysqueezebox.com, but it didn't help. I upgraded to the latest version of Squeezebox Server - v 7.6 - r32854. Reading the release notes from 7.5, and seeing there was fix for Rhapsody, I was hopeful that this would fix the problem. After the server upgrade, my Squeezebox automatically updated to firmware version 137. I tried Rhapsody - no dice. Same exact symptoms: I could connect and browse, but no music! After reading this forum, I decided to try plugging in an ethernet cable and disabling wireless bridging. Now here's the thing: I have never used wireless bridging. I have only connected my Squeezebox to my LAN wirelessly. I did not have an ethernet cable plugged in. By definition, wireless bridging is all about bridging a wireless connection with a wired one. To use it, you have to have a wired ethernet connection to some other device! Not having an ethernet cable plugged in, I did not think the comments about wireless bridging would be relevant to my setup. But I didn't know what else to try, so... I plugged in the ethernet cable, connected it to my router, held down the left arrow to re-do the network setup, chose No on the wireless bridge option, and after going through the rest of the setup, Rhapsody worked! I immediately disconnected the ethernet cable, and Rhapsody continues to work with no problems. So if you are only using wireless, don't worry: you don't need to keep the cable connected permanently. You just have to plug it in long enough to re-do the networking setup. Hokie, thank you so much for the tip. I will add a comment to the bug you logged. Mcoste and IceFusion, thanks for your posts. I wouldn't have expected the wifi bridging to be the problem in my case since I wasn't using it, but your posts saying that you needed to connect an ethernet cable to disable bridging convinced me to try it. -- William Szostak William Szostak's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11160 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88878 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
