Setting a playlist or favourite album as an alarm does not play well with synced players when one of the players is initially off.

Re: [slim] music stops when on synced radio starts up
As slartibartfast says - alarms are special. Some interaction at the controls can be interpreted as "alarm cancel". As a result of complaints of alarm users sleeping in when internet radio stream broke down,- interruptions from the playing side will be reattempted first (so sometime a very quick cancel does not work as stream is reconnected ) - otherwise there may be fall back to a guaranteed audio source. As syncing is core - you might check variations to see if result is more acceptable. - check does changing which player is master help - use Group Players plugin bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112429 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

A short interruption to normal playback is ignored but alarms trigger the default fallback alarm. I might try this on my Radios later.

Re: [slim] music stops when on synced radio starts up
so since the alarm starts a new random song playlist it took some time for it to start. was a bit slow to get out of bed today, but when I turned on the second radio the music stopped and default alarm terror started. when I checked the playlist on bathroom radio it said stop on 13 out of 13 song in playlist. so why is this happening to the playlist, it should be going on forever? I hit the random song on bathroom radio and both radio was playing, turned of the bathroom radio and turned it on again and both was playing like they should.
