Re: [slim] What's your favorite device for remotely controlling your Squeezebox?
My HTC Desire: SqueezeCommander as remote, Squeezeplayer for streaming away from home. 100% good! /Mats -- MatsLarsson MatsLarsson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5815 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86866 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Certain artists not appearing in Slimserver library with itunes...
The main problem with tags is that mp3's often contain *both* ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags, and that the two sets might contain different data. Applications tend to treat these differences in different ways, that's why files that show up okay is iTunes may look bad in SlimServer. Furthermore, different SlimServer builds treat tagging issues differently, that's why sort orders and other things can change after an upgrade. There's no reason to keep two ID3 versions in your files, so the best approach is to remove all your ID3v1 tags (while making sure that the ID3v2 tags are good). This is the essence of the *'Mp3tagGuide' (http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?Mp3tagGuide)* instructions. Give it a shot before looking elsewhere for solutions! /Mats -- MatsLarsson MatsLarsson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5815 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34690 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Certain artists not appearing in Slimserver library with itunes...
This is most likely a tagging problem. Use the 'Mp3tagGuide' (http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?Mp3tagGuide) to weed out those ID3v1 tags that probably causes this. /Mats -- MatsLarsson MatsLarsson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5815 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34690 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Browse only Artwork

The whole point of browsing by cover art would be seeing the covers, right? There are a number of utilities that automatically download, rename and save cover art. It won't catch them all, but when you have 2200 covers, you might want to manually chase down the rest. Or write that plugin. /Mats -- MatsLarsson MatsLarsson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5815 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32358 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Clearing the DB
There is always the possibility to point the SS to an empty folder, and then do a full rescan. That would produce an empty library. /Mats -- MatsLarsson MatsLarsson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5815 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=24991 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Re: Ethical question - stolen CDs & backups......
As far as ethics are concerned - stealing someone's CD's is a rather unethical thing to do! If someone stole my CD's, I would still consider myself the legal owner, and happily play my backup copies in whatever form I have them. The record industry have a different view, but frankly I couldn't care less. /Mats -- MatsLarsson MatsLarsson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5815 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29003 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
