Re: [slim] Family now hate the Jogglers.
I found the older release (not helpful since I do not remember which one it was) to be more stable and have stuck with it. I do have to reboot them every now and then ... perhaps monthly ... which might be related to the SqueezePlay number overflow issue. 2 of them (bathroom and kitchen) are used daily. I just had a quick look at the birdslikewires site and did not find the old release. My copy is on a USB stick that I pop into a new (to me) Joggler when it arrives. Recently provided 2 to another household in the family.

Re: [slim] Scanner.exe error again after several years
I recently upgraded LMS to the latest release, 8.1.1 from 7.7.6. I am getting that annoying 'scanner.exe error message about every 10 minutes when LMS is running. Is the only solution to this is downgrade to an earlier version?? Two questions arise: - why would the scanner run every 10 minutes? - why does the scanner crash? Please check your scanner.log file for any trace about the failure. What exact error message do you get when the scanner crashes? And are you using any kind of automated scan? ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Family now hate the Jogglers.
I looked at the Jogglers and found this page... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O2_Joggler This looks almost exactly like a Raspberry Pi with the standard 7" touch screen. I have put boxes like this together and run PiCore. You can see my post about that construction at: https://blog.lns.com/?p=151 Tim On 5/27/21 3:46 PM, Gingermagic wrote: Around Chirstmas time, I bought 2 Jogglers.

Re: [slim] New life into an old smart radio
On occasion, on the built-in WiFi, I would get "waiting to connect' when trying to sync the Radio to a Boom. There is a bit of a disco light show at night from the Vonets. I read where people pull it apart to tape over the LEDs. I'm sort of burying it, behind the Radio, in all the cabling, so it's more of a glow and not a glare. 21 days. No reboots. Everything connects and syncs just fine.
