Re: [slim] Squeezebox Controller vs ipod touch
BlueScreenJunky;395717 Wrote: That's what I keep reading... So why do they even bother selling the Controller ? Maybe they should just bundle the Receiver with an iPod Touch and iPeng pre-installed lol =D I really don't like ipods (never owned one but I can't stand the fact that you have to use iTunes and can't just use UMS, plus sound quality is said to be lower than other players), but I'll probably end up getting one only to control my SB3 and SB Boom ^^; I know what you mean, I have an iRiver 320, but I finally broke down and bought a used 60gb Video because it worked exactly the way I wanted it to with the Pioneer HU in my car. I've borrowed my nephew's Touch to try with my SBR and it worked very well. You don't necessarily have to use iTunes to manage your music/iDevice, there are at least a few alternatives out there like J River's Mediacenter/Jukebox, Media Monkey and SongBird. However, Apple is making it very difficult for third party software to support the 2nd generation iPhone/iTouch so support is still somewhat limited for these outside of iTunes. But there are plenty of used/refurbed 1st gen to be had. -- Merlinwerks Merlinwerks's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20433 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=6 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] SB Duet connected with external DAC
I believe the outputs on the receiver are always on by default, even when the SBR is powered off. This is to prevent popping through some audio systems when turning the SBR on/off. However, this can be changed in Squeeze Center. I'm not at my system right now, but I believe you can find the setting in SC from the Settings page: Player Tab select Audio from the right hand drop-down list and somewhere in that list should be an option to turn off the audio outputs when the SBR is powered off. This should solve your problem, but also means you will need to pwr off the SBR when you want to use your other transport. I guess I took too long too post. I didn't realize that option was not functional, I only knew it was there... -- Merlinwerks Merlinwerks's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20433 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54356 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
