[slim] Memory Foam Mattress Reviews

2012-01-25 Thread darellkonner

Think it or not, reading a memory foam mattress evaluation is extremely
important for any individual who desires to get a good mattress as this
is where you get to discover about most features of the mattress you
want to purchase. This is because this is where you get to discover
about the various kinds accessible within the marketplace also as their
functions to ensure that you can make an informed choice to get the one
that will carry out its task without an issue.

 I'll post back with scan times under a newer version should I ever have
 the spare time to mess about with this again - I hadn't appreciated that
 there might be substantial scanning speedups to be had. I've been burned
 so many times by upgrades that were downgrades that I've stopped paying
 attention to the new versions.

I'm still curious to hear how you make use of such a large collection
(no judgment, just interested in the answer).

With the change from MySQL to SQLite and substantial rewriting of the
code, yes, there may be speedups to be had. For your case the big
question is how well those changes scale. During testing of the early
SQLite versions (7.6.0) the results for large collections seemed pretty
scattered.

I can't speak for him.  But for me, I have about 240,000 or so tracks.
At the moment, I'm in the midst of a several year reripping program to
convert all my CDs to FLAC (I won't repeat the details of my sad story
of carefully ripping all my CDs to 192 mp3 many years ago before I knew
enough). So for now, my primary library is about 68,000 tracks. 

But back to the 240,000.  I'm a bit of a collector (I still have my
first albums from the early 1960s). If I like an artist, I want to have
everything they ever did. Some of it I may play once and never again.
But I also like the ability to play about any song of any artist that a
friend might want to hear. (You're setting on the deck enjoying a beer
and the friend says, do you remember that band that Joe's sister dated
the drummer back in high school that had one album released? And you
say, you mean this one as you call it up with iPeng on your iphone.

Stupid or silly I know. And how many of the five or six hundred
complete grateful dead shows do I *really* need?  The idea for me is
NOT that I will frequently listen to all this music, but that if I
*want* to listen to something, I have it.

Also keep in mind that much of my major collecting was done well before
anything like spotify, mog, rhapsody, etc. This makes it easy to find
some songs without owning the CD (although many things I own are not on
those services). In today's times I might have done things very
differently. And I have friends that have a lot more CDs than I
haveone with an entire wing of his home designed and built with
moveable shelving designed for mass storage of CDs and vinyl.
Obsessive? yes. But hey, it's their money and their hobby. {and no one
I'm talking about or me is a professional DJ}

Thanks for the interesting response. I can understand where you're
coming from (although my 6000 song collection is currently kicking my
ass :) ).

;-)But remember I'm an old guy. In 1967 I probably listened to the
same 3 albums over and over and over and over.

Re: [slim] Announcing SqueezePad - the first dedicated iPad App to controll your SqueezeBoxen !

 1. can the lyrics be updated automatically when you skip from Song 1 to
 Song 2?
 2. can you put the 'Song Lyrics' as one of the first options in the
 pop-up screen, so you don't have the scroll down.

Both are unfortunately not planned/possible right now.

The order of the menus is determined by the server. 

And in the menus SqueezePad is actually quite stupid. It renders what
the server wants it to show - and actually does not even know that the
texts it is showing are lyrics.

 Good idea.  With this approach it won't be long before they can work it

lol. My 9 year old has realised he can control all my squeezeboxes from
the radio in his bedroom. As his musical tastes range from 50 cent to
Alvin and the chipmunks, we have had some interesting musical
interruptions to our lives!

Seriously though, it's just good fun. He knows right from wrong, and I
see no need for parental controls on a network music player.

I have the same disease.

I love to collect and when I find a cool artist, I want their entire
catalog.

I'm about 1/4 - 1/3 through with my ripping odyssey.  I've done over
100,000 tracks in the past 10 months or so.

2012-01-25 Thread pomatomus

Very much what Garym said, with the twist that all that music includes
my wife's music as well, and she's just as much of a music fiend as I
am. I know it's not all listenable, and sure I have fantasies about
devoting retirement years to more music, but I just love being able to
easily go deep on something when the interest strikes me. For instance,
my wife was getting into old timey jazz 78s on a radio show, so we
started listening to some stuff on the Yazoo label, and a week later we
ended up with just an epic amount of that sort of stuff, which then
sparked a self-education campaign in old blues material, with a
diversion into klezmer for some reason. Having a huge amount of mp3s
around made that easy and pleasurable to do.

 with 580,000 tracks, server 7.5.5 takes about 7.5 hours to look for
 new/changed, on my reasonably fast i7 machine. I still get timeouts
 sporadically on the New Music browse (controller only, not in the web
 interface), but I've found 7.5.5 is better than previous versions,
 which used to time out almost every single time. I don't think large
 collections were really anticipated.
 
When I asked Logitech some time ago in the following thread, the
largest library they ever performed any official tests on was a 120 000
tracks library. So based on this, I'm pretty sure the system hasn't been
optimized to run good in a 580 000 tracks library, since they have no
way to test it. I suspect most of their testing is done in a lot
smaller libraries so even if they have access to a 120 000 tracks
library it doesn't mean that they run a lot of tests with that
library.
