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

2012-10-20 Thread bluegaspode

Hi Jylppy, 

for your scenario there is a setting in the web-server of your
Squeezebox.
Please open the web-interface of your server, then go to Settings -
Player.

For each (!) Squeezebox there is a setting play other songs from
album. When you activate it, you can tap a song in SqueezePad and all
other songs of the album will be put into the playlist as well. If on
rare occasions you still just want to play a single song, you can still
use the the context menu with the long press, which operates on single
tracks.

There is another way: you can play a whole album from the album view
just by tapping the cover (regardless of the option above). So you don't
even need to drill down.

Do these possibilities help in your situation?

[slim] Sonos TV ad

2012-10-20 Thread toby10

Anyone catch the national TV ad for Sonos?  Saw it last night Oct 19th,
guessing around 9 pm EST.  Might have been on the History ch.  
Makes sense, pounce while the competition is down!   ;)

OK, I had this option set, but I used long press since that is the way
how it works elsewhere. There is no option play album when doing long
press for a track. For sake of consistency that could be added to the
list?

Yes, I know this, but I just always end up often drilling down to album
track listing to see if the album has the songs I want to play. There I
find it weird that I cannot play the whole album - or it is not very
obvious that I can play it. 

Now I know that clicking one track in a album plays the whole album
since my setting. I still propose to improve the usability of Squezepad
by enabling album/artist/genre/etc/ playback by clicking/long pressing
the album title. Using that as home function is bit illogical  -
especially since there is a home button. 

Another cool improvement would be skip next/previous track by flicking
the album art left/right in the currently playing album art-view.
That's the way it works in Spotify and native Music app.

Re: [slim] DAC 101 Help Please!

2012-10-20 Thread Jack Gilvey

Atlantic wrote: 
 Very interesting thoughts.  (I don't know anything about DACs and
 today's amps - we only have traditional analogue kit, actually just
 integrated miniHiFi systems with various analogue inputs.)  I think
 you're saying that most analogue conventional amps are ok, but not the
 multichannel kit (such as the OP's Denon?).  I've been thinking about
 the Harmon Kardon range - in particular the stereo items such as
 
 http://uk.harmankardon.com/harman-kardon-product-detail-uk/hk-3490.html
 
 It's a very big box, though.  This has digital in (co-ax, and optical -
 are those a 'standard', do you think, so that the Squeezebox digital
 outputs would 'just work' into these) and presumably has a DAC and, I
 guess reasonable conventional amps?  Do you feel that this kind of kit
 has better 2-channel performance than the sort of AV equipment that you
 were worried about?  And, the same question as the OP raised, external
 DAC could be placed between an SQbox and this amp, so only using the amp
 as an analogue device?  In your view, using analogue power stages is ok
 from the point of view of next step up in quality, (or not)?
 
 Again, thanks for the basic but very useful (to me, too) thread
 
 regards, Atlantic

Nice amp, the 3490, very clean and powerful and stable into 4 ohms.   I
have my Touch connected to mine via coax in my 2-channel/vinyl rig. Its
internal DAC is apparently a 24/96 AKM. Sounds good enough that I've
never bothered to hook the SB to it via analog outs. Sub-outs and
pre-out/main-in jacks are handy as well.

Re: [slim] How many of you have spare squeezeboxes?

2012-10-20 Thread Jack Gilvey

I picked up another Touch before the prices went up after hearing of the
product's demise and being unimpressed with the UE line. Really nothing
like it. May set it up at my mom's as a MOG device rather than just
leaving it in the box. She'll love it. :-)

Re: [slim] How many of you have spare squeezeboxes?

2012-10-20 Thread jezbo

I've had just one SB3 for years. But since the announcement of the end
of the product line I've bought a used Boom and a Duet as backup, and
have my eye out for good deals on a new Touch. This lot should last til
some viable alternative system comes onto the market - such an
alternative must have a programmable API for me to use my muso product
on it, and as yet it seems there's just nothing else out there.

What competition? Squeezebox Touch was a better product too for less
money. 

I still cant believe a product of this caliber is gone.

 What's more likely going to happen is that someone realize that there is
 a need, a market and thus a potential to earn some money and based on
 this decide to fill the hole Logitech have left with some new more
 exciting products. 
 
 However, we got to give it some time, updating hardware/software to
 match the needs and sign necessary agreements with content providers
 aren't going to happen over a night. Fortunately we can keep enjoying
 music from our current Squeezebox devices while we wait, so it's not a
 major problem, I'll start to worry if we haven't seen any indication
 that someone is about to try to fulfill the needs within the Squeezebox
 market segment within a year or two.
