Edit: It doesn't seem to enjoy my flac files very much (stock speeds) @MusicManiac 1) Check your wifi ap/router. In the worst case it will need about 180 KB/s bandwidth. Make sure the latency between your squeezeserver and touchpad is low otherwise it will take a lot time to buffer. 2) Flac decoding is not CPU intensive which is in the design spec. If you could playback ogg files then its safe to assume the same CPU is powerful enough to decode FLAC files. If you want you can try BFQ I/O scheduler (you need to install govnah and uber kernel from preware). 3) Check the CPU usage with top inside touchpad. You should be expecting more than 30% id (idle) in average when squeezeslave is running. For your reference I installed uber kernel with max frequency set to 1.5G Hz and have turned the cpu frequency governor to preformance (therefore can have a more consistent performance) the CPU usage of squeezeslave measures around 7% when playing back mp3. Therefore I don't think CPU is the bottleneck here when running at 1.2G HZ. -- s7mx1 s7mx1's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=47093 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83362 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

I'm definitely not less concerned about Philips long term commitment to
their music streaming devices, just because they release new hardware
now doesn't mean they plan to support and continuously enhance the

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] new features on iPad: SqueezePad 1.8.0 hits the store!
version 1.8.2 has been released and improves compatibility with server version 7.6.x - SqueezePad crashed on startup when SB-Server 7.6.0 sometimes created a corrupt playlist for a player. Now when the server is into this state, you'll see a message in the playlist window kindly asking you to upgrade your server to version 7.6.1 where Logitech fixed the problem - the album view with server 7.6 now again shows the 'empty' cover for albums without a cover like with previous versions of the server - SqueezePad now (if available) also renders the 'album artist' tag in the now playing area like a Squeezebox Touch and the web interface - improved speed of loading track images in playlist windows when using 7.6 server -- bluegaspode Did you know: *'SqueezePlayer' (www.squeezeplayer.com)* will stream all your music to your Android device.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Squeezeslave: 1.0 released
s7mx1;654856 Wrote: @MusicManiac 1) Check your wifi ap/router. In the worst case it will need about 180 KB/s bandwidth. Make sure the latency between your squeezeserver and touchpad is low otherwise it will take a lot time to buffer. 2) Flac decoding is not CPU intensive which is in the design spec. If you could playback ogg files then its safe to assume the same CPU is powerful enough to decode FLAC files. If you want you can try BFQ I/O scheduler (you need to install govnah and uber kernel from preware). 3) Check the CPU usage with top inside touchpad. You should be expecting more than 30% id (idle) in average when squeezeslave is running. For your reference I installed uber kernel with max frequency set to 1.5G Hz and have turned the cpu frequency governor to preformance (therefore can have a more consistent performance) the CPU usage of squeezeslave measures around 7% when playing back mp3. Therefore I don't think CPU is the bottleneck here when running at 1.2G HZ. Well I've spent more time than my quick evaluation before and it is working good. I think the stutters I was experiencing probably have more to do with cpu usage being taken away from squeezeslave due to multitasking(or hitting a bad webpage) than it topping out. Bandwidth shouldn't be an issue. (unless its the pad itself... or the download throttling applies to streams? don't believe it does...) Checking top and it is inline with what you said it should be. Occasionally it (and pulseaudio) spikes, but nothing unexpected. Stock kernel still. I will need to play with the latency or delay options as switching tracks produces trash every know and then.(have you needed to tweak it?) Anyway good work, thanks again for the port. -- MusicManiac MusicManiac's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36544 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83362 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

The thread posted is for setting up a receiver without the controller (assuming you had a Duet, which isn't the case). As that poster also mentioned, if your new network looks like the old network, it should just work. Did you change your network settings of network name? The server name or settings? There are alternate remote settings which are supposed to work - I think JVC DVD? Someone else may be able to help more there.
