Re: [slim] DSBridge - A simpler way to stream Spotify
Windows does a lot of caching so unless you have restarted Windows - once a DLL has been loaded it may still available even if deleted from the source directory as long as there is one instance of a process which has linked to it. This make Windows very confusing if you update DLLs as you need to reboot Windows to be sure the new version is being used. Use Process Explorer ( http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653 ) to see what DLLs are loaded and their source directory. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=64590 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

If you are using the two pane view - then after opening the lower pane ans making sure Lower Pane view is DLLs then if you select a process in the upper pane , the DLLs associated with that process will appear in the lower pane. However for this problem I think you should use the Find menu to find any instance of the file name of the DLL you have removed - I suggest just use first few letters of name.

[slim] Gapless playback no longer working properly
My Squeezebox Boom has been the main conduit for music in my home for some three years years. I have several of them throughout the house, all synced with each other, and it's been great. My server runs on OS X Lion. However recently I have noticed a new problem. When playing back a gapless album, in particular a continuous DJ mix album, there is a noticeable transition between the tracks. It's not so much a gap, rather an unevenness in the tempo. Like the new track is slightly delayed. This used to work great. My music library has not changed. Gapless albums that previously played back fine, now have awkward track transitions. I suspect this was introduced in a recent server software or firmware upgrade. * Is Logitech aware of this?

Re: [slim] Gapless playback no longer working properly
Actually syncing only works robust, when songs are played gapless. Otherwise a resync is needed on each song start. Are you playing mp3? In my experience the individual compression leads to very small audible glitches in gapless songs.

Re: [slim] Cheap tablets to use as a Controller
If that's all you want it for then you probably can't go too far wrong, other than a probable lack of support. Just make sure it's got a capacitive screen rather than resistive. If you want to do more with it then I'd say it's worth spending a bit more on something you've heard of. A used iPod Touch with iPeng works well you should be able to pick up a 2nd gen in decent condition for that money. If you jailbreak it to make it multi-tasking you can use e-mail etc. at the same time. Otherwise iPeng (or other control software) will shut down when you fire up something else. I'm currently running Squeeze Commander on a Samsung Galaxy WiFi 5.0 find that a good size for a remote.

We don't have gapless AAC support (in the newer players), although maybe with faad transcoding it's gapless, don't think I've tried to be honest.

[slim] Backing up my music files in a useful way
The endless task of ripping my CDs has passed the 30,000 track mark, so I'm thinking I should sort out a back up. I'd hate to have to do it all again. I was going to buy a second NAS drive, but they've tripled in price in the last few months, I guess because of the floods in Thailand, so a regular hard drive it will have to be. It seems like a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone - it would be great to have access to my music collection while I'm at work, so my back-up would do for that. So the plan is to run Squeezeplay on my work PC, plug the hard drive into a USB port and play some tunes. So would that work OK? I seem to remember reading about problems accessing a big library on an external hard drive, but perhaps that was in other circumstances.
