What's next? In all likelihood, a few bug fix releases. I hope not
emergency ones, but this is the first time a lot of people will be
using 1.3.0. We will try to keep the preview builds up-to-date at the
same time.

Great question -- you can do whatever you like. 

If you want to take a break from having both installed, feel free to do
so and stick with the non-preview release. For at least a few weeks, the
releases will be pretty much functionally identical. The preview release
*may* get non-critical bug fixes a bit earlier.

Just saying,  a raspberrypi (3 Watts) running squeezeplug works great if
you don't mind HDMI out.  Silent, cheap, low-power - does it all.

[slim] Better hurry, Squeezeboxes getting more expensive

Transporter SE is selling for $999 direct from Logitech and Radios for
$119 (was $99 last week).  I've been following SB prices on ebay and
they've been trending lower the last month or so.  Anyone paying more
than MSRP for a squeezebox product is donating money to a seller.  I
have a feeling I'll be able to get BNIB or close to new SBT's for $200
or so in the next month or so.

I think usb to an async dac is probably better - I believe its only
recent versions of HDMI which have supported the HDMI device controlling
the playback clock.  The pi works well with usb 2 devices, but has
problems with usb 1/1.1 devices.  However if the HDMI works for you then
its a good solution..

2012-12-05 Thread d6jg

Thanks Triode. Good suggestion. I already have a Behringer UAC202 which
I use for digitising vinyl. That has an passthrough Optical out as well
as Analogue and should work with a Pi as a USB sound card without any
additional drivers I imagine. 
I like my main Living Room player (SB3) connected both digitally and
analogue to benefit from Onkyo's Zone 2 output which I fire at a
headphone amp. A Pi  DAC could ultimately replace that.
A Pi is definitely food for thought (excuse the pun).

You were lucky as that was bottom price on Amazon UK... I was watching
amazon prices over month now... Got one for £197 probably 2 weeks before
yours price... and then recently
decided I want another one.. and actually had to go Amazon.de (£201)
because .uk had them already for £269...day later even on amazon.de
Touch was for £230 ish 
btw previous winter I got one for £219

You can get some 'sealed box' 2nd hand from ebay.. but Logitech warranty
is not transferable apparenty...

I don't believe anyone's paying those prices.  I've been following
squeezeboxes on eBay for years and there have ALWAYS been sellers asking
those kinds of prices.  Always.  Right alongside the sanely-priced ones.
I guess they figure they've only got to sell one or two.

For commodities like those you don't need to excel. Being average still
sells millions of units per year. 
So what's your point -- that they should have stayed with the products
they don't understand? That's a great strategy.

Re: [slim] No competition for Sonos! :-(

2012-12-05 Thread dave77

Having owned SB for about 4yrs now work colleagues have been asking me
for advice on streaming products. Of course I recommend SB but with no
support and no future products I have to redirect them to Sonos, the
products look iCool, simple to set up etc, i've never really looked into
them before but fear I may have to soon as technology advances, eg
Google Music etc, if Logitech could spend a little more effort, an app
to access Google Music be amazing.

The Sonos Bridge too, why did Logitech not think of that, even if they
don't use there own wireless network as Sonos does, a little Logitech
box containing Squeezebox Server allowing access to any NAS devices
would have solved lots of headaches!

I'm keeping my SB for as long as I can, for one I like an LCD display
showing what's playing!

[slim] Slim device not connected to squeezebox network

2012-12-05 Thread benybrady

Hello all,

Sorry if is is double post as I've tried but can't find anything. 

I have 2 SB touches, 2 duets, 1 radio and 1 boom on my network all
controlled by my smartphone. I just purchased a squeezebox slimdevice
and cannot connect it to my network so that I can control it with my
smartphone. The are all plugged into an Ethernet cable. I've done the
factoy reset on my slimdevices and when I sign to mysqueezebox on the
slimdevices, it pulls up all my pandora presets but I'm not able to
recognize it with my smartphone so that I can control it. Funny it
doesn't ask me for my squeezebox password. It just recognizes my network
when I plug it into the Ethernet port.

I just want to add this device as a source point for my whole house
audio and want to be able to control it with my smartphone.

Thx .
