Re: [slim] Transporter Problem
And in two years of operation, I have never had to do a reset of any kind. I wonder if it could be firmware related. By that I mean that I run the older SC 7.3.4 and I think firmware 54. Maybe this is a contributing factor. BTW, when I say disconnected from mains each night, I mean that it is shut down via the APC power supply feeding power to it (the Transporter), so I assume that this is the same as unplugged each night.

I had tried this once before, but it requires a wired LAN connection, and I tried that with my Boom and was unable to get it to work. It then took way too long to get it to connect again wireless, so I didn't want to disconnect the Receiver and bring it to the router and fight with it, remembering how long it took to get it working with this 2WIRE router in the first place. Sorry. Both players stay connected most of the time, so it's not that big a deal. The SBR tends to go blue when I want to show it off, but that's about right around here! The weird thing about the Boom is that when it loses its connection to msb.com all I have to do is turn the Controller on, and when it boots up to the menu the Boom reconnects automatically, even if the Controller is set to the SBR at the time. So I just keep it by the bed, and when I wake up in the middle of the night and see all of the the Boom panel lights on instead of just the power light, I just power cycle the Controller and all is good. As well, the Samsung Moment was discontinued by Sprint at least a year ago (at Android 2.1) and most of us are looking forward to replacing them, so you probably don't have much of a user base on this phone, anyway.

Re: [slim] MOG for Squeezebox Announced
fuzzyT;668492 Wrote: Still gathering details. Blog post here: I tried it out last night. I've had Rhapsody for some years, so that's the comparison I have. Main differences: 1. The sound quality is supposed to be better, at 320kbps vs. 192kbps, right? I think it was, but it was subtle enough that I couldn't swear that I'd pass a blind test. Slight win MOG. 2. The MOG Squeezebox UI is painfully bad compared to Rhapsody's. There's no way to do arbitrary browsing through genres (Rhapsody's genre browsing along with its key artists, top tracks, etc., make music discovery really great). Adding stuff to your favorites is only possible on an album (never a track) level, and not even consistently then. 2a. Your favorites/library behaves really weirdly: If you add an entire album to it, when you go in to view individual tracks, you don't see the songs from that album at all. But on the other hand, if you add an individual track from an album and go into the album view, you see its album but clicking on it gives you ALL the songs from that album. There's no way to see all the songs that you've chosen, and just the songs that you've chosen. 3. If you don't need mobile (phone) access, MOG is $5/month versus Rhapsody's $10/month. If you do want that, they're the same price at $10/month. (Rhapsody doesn't have a no-mobile plan.) Upshot for me is that I'm cheap enough to probably go with MOG over Rhapsody for half the price, but if you want to use the mobile capabilities, Rhapsody is much better from a Squeezebox perspective, so I'd recommend that. -- mkozlows mkozlows's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=62 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91465 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Eventghost comes to mind here. Controlling the volume from eventghost is no problem at all, depending on the hardware involved. I for instance have a serial cable between the pc and my Marantz receiver but a million other ways are possible. The only thing needed is the ability for Eventghost to capture the volume-up and volume-down events coming from Squeezepad. This could be achieved in many ways, e.g. Squeezepad sending UDP-packets for each and every event happening in the application. Some other way might be that eventghost listens to the network communication that is going on between Squeezepad anyway.

Re: [slim] MOG for Squeezebox Announced
I have had Spotify since it first came to the US. I love it but don't much care for the antiquated UI. So I signed up for a MOG trial. The UI on the web is much nicer. But using my Touch it is pretty much the same - rather lame. Ease of search is the single most important factor for me. I ran a sound comparison between Spotify and MOG. The song I picked happened to be only 280 kbps on MOG but 320 on Spotify. Using my Touch and my Apogee mini DAC I couldn't pick up a difference with any certainty at all. I could fool myself easily enough. We all can and do that all the time. But once I forced myself to apply my best scientific discipline I had to admit I couldn't tell the difference.

Really, my only complaint about Rhapsody is that the service overall does not support scrobbling, and when played through Squeezebox, Rhapsody channels are not scrobbled. If I do stick with Rhapsody I will likely add a paid subscription to either Last.fm or Slacker Basic to have a better radio option. -- MeSue SUE 1 Duet | 2 Booms | 1 Radio | 1 Touch | 1 SB2 HP MediaSmart EX470 | Logitech Media Server 7.7.1 | iPod Touch iPad w/ iPeng Find me on 'Last.FM' (http://www.last.fm/user/MeSue) | 'Twitter' (http://twitter.com/suechastain) | 'Rhapsody' (http://www.rhapsody.com/members/mesue) MeSue's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=985 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91465 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

This turns out to be the same as MOG's $5 plan -- no mobile, but does work on Squeezebox, apparently -- so given the better UI of Rhapsody, I ended up switching to that at the same price and canceling MOG instead. Good to know! I will factor that into my decision, as I'm still debating which to go with. I like the option to have mobile, but the reality is, I hardly ever use the mobile app, and could probably live without it. -- MeSue SUE 1 Duet | 2 Booms | 1 Radio | 1 Touch | 1 SB2 HP MediaSmart EX470 | Logitech Media Server 7.7.1 | iPod Touch iPad w/ iPeng Find me on 'Last.FM' (http://www.last.fm/user/MeSue) | 'Twitter' (http://twitter.com/suechastain) | 'Rhapsody' (http://www.rhapsody.com/members/mesue) MeSue's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=985 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91465 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] MOG for Squeezebox Announced
I gave it a try.no problem with getting it up and running---sort of. I liked the sound quality, but it was completely unusable for me. I experienced constant rebuffering which I suspect might have been due to the combination of the high bit rate and my lowly DSL connection. So, unfortunately, I had to cancel the free trial after just a couple of days. I don't experience any problems with Pandora, Sky, etc. Every once in a while I get a little bout of rebuffering w/Rhapsody, but it's infrequent and when it does occur, it's typically around early evening/peak usage times. Too bad, I was kinda' hoping MOG would work out... -- rgro Rg System information Main: PS Audio Quintet Vortexbox Touch (wired) via optical Rega DAC LFD LE IV amp VA Mozart Grands REL Acoustics R305.

Re: [slim] MOG for Squeezebox Announced
I feel your pain, same buffering issues.

Re: [slim] auto populate year tag info
Puddletag ( linux ) can easilly be setup to retrive only years for example. But the online databases are not always to be trusted they are often wrong and sometimes i disagree with correct info . I prefer the original release year of the recording for example an old recording originally done before digital. Led Zeppelin 1 I want the year to be 1969 , not whenever one of the numerous cd versions was released. But in the best case these online databases report the cd release year. I have not experimented with multiple year tags or a tag separator , that would be an aproach with multiple remaster. There is an origyear tag ? How well suported is that one ? So to fit personal prefs some hands on jobb is needed anyway, my aproach to year is a historical timeline of when the music was made not when they printed my copy , but thats often the only thing you get from the cd case . Amg or wikipedia can have info . What did I just say ? There is no way to *really* automate tagging, but you can do it anyway but be preperad to accept some anomalies and errors. Automating years would give very little music before 1985-1990 Have in mind that most of the content of these dB's is uploaded by other amateur users. -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.

Re: [slim] MOG for Squeezebox Announced
I'm gonna give it a little more time, and I still need to compare content, but I am leaning toward sticking with Rhapsody. Lack of browsing by genre is the whole reason I switched to Rhapsody after trying Spotify (my first on-demand music service experience). Heh... I have no idea why we don't include browsing by genre... I'll double-check. -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
