Re: [slim] iPeng, your iPhone Squeezebox Remote, gets even better with version 2.0!
Sorry to interject. This for info only. Hi Pippin. Hopefully you got my crash report but yesterday iPeng on iPhone 3GS crashed again. The problem with changing the volume on a player seems to have returned (if it ever truly left).

Re: [slim] Slim device not connected to squeezebox network
Yup, reset won't do it. What is probably happening is you are confusing the SB3 because LMS on your computer is using your MySB account while the SB3 is actually registered to a different MySB account. Two accounts through one player will cause all kinds of goofy issues. Get it properly connected to your MySB account, as gary suggests, then try again. Simple test: Connect SB3 directly to MySB.com (no LMS), get it playing. Now log into MySB.com on your computer, go to Players, is the SB3 listed as connected? toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97473 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] iPeng, your iPhone Squeezebox Remote, gets even better with version 2.0!
Don't know whether it was yours but I did get some truly helpful crash reports. bluegaspode was right, HockeyApp's crash reporting is really so much better than Apple's and also TestFlight's (which has the added issue of being unacceptable from a privacy policy standpoint except for beta testing because it sends data without asking, which is why I never used it in the wild). Sorry, I forgot which volume issue you had, it's not the one with volume changes causing skips, right? Was it about changing volume when exiting or entering the App? _That_ problem would be a known issue by now if you use an LMS 7.5.x. It's caused by the server sending a wrong number of New Music entries. I have a fix but it's not in the current version, will be in the next. pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96749 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] iPeng, your iPhone Squeezebox Remote, gets even better with version 2.0!
Yes, that's kind of what I had in mind, too. Would have to be something like wikipedia or a publicly available site, though, a lot of the commercial ones don't allow you to use their data for commercial Apps. I'd settle for an search on Allmusic.com -- even just opening the page in Safari would be fine. http://www.allmusic.com/search/artists/%s Of course it's not as clean as having it all in-app, but it's still much more convenient than having to switch to Safari, go to AMG, enter the artist, etc. Shouldn't be an issue regarding using their data since you're only handing off a URL.

Great viral marketing when peeps are at Xmas parties and get their playlist right from iPhone to the hi-fi and other zones with Sonos players I'm not sure how this will drain the batteries. Nor how they keep iOS from quitting the App after 10min (as I guess the App starts up a simple HTTP server to make the files available to the Sonos players, via their playlist). Will investigate :) ... and maybe this is possible for Squeezeboxes as well (as long as people run their own server to hold the playlist). But it's a cool marketing catch in any case (people even wouldn't need a NAS anymore to hold their music files) and people with some probability realize only later about the real implications. bluegaspode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31651 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97440 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

If they like to continue doing devices similar to UE Smart Radio they need to lower the price a lot so it can be targeted to the mass market or increase the functionality a lot so it can compete with Sonos, currently it's placed in the middle with too little functionality and too high price. Hi newbie here. I would agree that Airplay, BlueTooth and iOS docking are very high on the audio playback list for most people.

[slim] Help with SqueezePlay please
I am tearing my hair out here. I have just installed SqueezePlay and can't for the life of me get it to connect to my local server. It only seems to want to connect to mysqueezebox.com. It seemed to do this automatically in spite of at one point suggesting that I needed to go to jive.something.com and enter a PIN. However, I didn't get chance to do that as it did something automatically. Then I found something hidden on the Test menu, SN Registration that allowed me to enter an email address and password that I had previously registered with mysqueezebox.com. It accepted this but it did not seem to make any difference. I have been all through the menus and can't see anywhere to switch to my local server. I never use mysqueezebox.com with my hardware players so I am not familiar with what the switching procedure is there. I more or less have a new computer in that I installed Windows 7 on a new HD and started from scratch again. I did install SqueezePlay on my old XP install not too long ago and I don't recall these problems. LMS itself is running on a different machine from my WIndows 7 box - a Linux server. I just upgraded to the 7.7.2 release yesterday having been on an old 6.* version for a while. I have tried both the 7.7 and the 7.8 versions of SqueezePlay.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Music-Playback now on ANDROID! SqueezePlayer released to the market ...
Mick Seymour wrote: I don't normally do it but once I had it running on my phone synced with a Boom and an SB3 at the same time. It seemed to work well. Good to know, thank you Mick. Still I have to try with the tablet of my choice. As I understand some of Stefan's earlier post in this thread it depends on the hardware and probably the Android version how well synchronisation to the other players works. I haven't quite made up my mind what tablet I want to use for this. Initially the idea was to try with any of these dirt cheap ones which are now available from about 60 Euros. That would probably be the cheapest Squeezebox ever (if we disregard the raspberry pi, which I don't consider a ready-to-use consumer product). In my opinion, if the tablet has nothing else to do but reproducing audio, then even an outdated, slow unit should be good enough for the job. Or does anyone disagree? Anyway, lately I wonder if it wouldn't be better to spend 200 Euros on a Nexus 7 which is pretty much state-of-the-art and should offer the option to upgrade with an external USB DAC (at least in theory, so far it seems nobody really tried this) if the analog output doesn't sound good (as somebody from a German HiFi forum wrote). Any thoughts on this, anyone, please? Also one specific question (Stefan?) - would a USB to TOSlink converter such as this one: http://www.inline-info.de/art/de/89909D/InLineAudioKonverter%2CEingangUSB%2CAusgangOptoToslinkundKlinke%2Cschwarz.html fall into that same USB Dacs/USB audio device category which should be supported in JellyBean?
