[slim] How to go from digital optical output to XLR digital input?
I have a device that outputs digital audio via optical, and I need to go into a device that takes an AES3/EBU (XLR) digital input. Does anyone know of an adapter, cord, or some other passthrough device than can do this? Alternatively, is there something that goes from digital optical to analog stereo RCA?

Re: [slim] Why did my album art stop working properly?
Argh... I tried dividing up my library into smaller pieces and scanning them in separately to see if I could locate any problem files. No luck. For any given piece, the artwork loads fine. It's only when I try to scan the libary as a whole that causes me to lose the artwork. Any advice, anybody? -- Mike Anderson 'FREE RADICAL RADIO!' (http://nvo.com/cd) Hours of free radical MP3s.

Re: [slim] Why did my album art stop working properly?
Perhaps I have some problem files. I tried limiting the scan to certain subdirectories, and those work fine. Just not my entire Music directory.

[slim] Why did my album art stop working properly?
My album art had been working properly, but recently stopped working for no identifiable reason. My album folders show up with question marks on them. (If I click on the album folder and go into it, then I can see the album art.) And similarly, when I run Moose, I can no longer browse by cover art. I can't figure out what I did wrong. I was editing some of the files with TagRename, embedding art into the .m4a files in an effort to get them to show up in Moose (which didn't work). That's when it stopped working. I tried clearing the browser's cache and turning off my anti-virus, then re-scanning - no luck. I'm on Windows XP Pro. Most of the album folders have a folder.jpg and/or .folder.png file in them. Some of the songs have the album art embedded as tags as well. Any ideas? thanks, Mike -- Mike Anderson 'FREE RADICAL RADIO!' (http://nvo.com/cd) Hours of free radical MP3s.

[slim] Help save Internet radio
Sign the petition here: http://www.savethestreams.org/ On Friday March 2nd, the U.S. government (specifically, the Copyright Royalty Board, or CRB) announced its determination of the royalty rates Internet radio webcasters must pay the owners of sound recording copyrights to license the music they play for the years 2006-2010. The owners of these sound recording copyrights are, in the vast majority of cases, recording companies (labels). While successful webcasters which have built loyal audiences can usually cover most of their costs from their revenue (and sometimes even make a little profit), these new rates will almost certainly destroy the Internet radio industry, as they amount to well over 100% of even the most-successful webcasters' online radio revenues. In other words, these fees are grotesquely disproportionate to any other expense a webcaster would normally face, and certain to bankrupt him or her. -- Mike Anderson 'FREE RADICAL RADIO!'

Aha, thanks for the links, I knew those threads were out there somewhere. However, one thing that's still unclear to me: Is the Transporter's hardware capable of doing this (i.e. is it just a matter of a firmware update)? I know one of the posters makes that assumption based on Sean Adams' post, but it isn't obvious to me that this conclusion necessarily follows from the statement he made. If Slim Devices says, Yes, the hardware will allow for it, and yes, a firmware upgrade to do this is in the foreseeable future, I'll order a Transporter tomorrow.

I seem to recall a thread about this somewhere, but now I can't find it, and I don't believe this question was finally answered anyway, so: Is it possible with the Transporter to put a digital signal processor (e.g. a Behringer DEQ2496 unit to do room correction) purely in the digital signal path by using the digital IOs in a manner similar to a tape loop?

According to the Behringer's manual, the meter measures the level of the input signal, not the post-processed signal. But that could be happening too, I suppose. -- Mike Anderson 'FREE RADICAL RADIO!' (http://nvo.com/cd) Hours of free radical MP3s.

[slim] Re: Can't use SB at full volume?
OK, I see the problem now. It's not the input signal. Even though the meter measures the input signal, it -also- hits red if the output signal clips. So setting the gain offset to take off about 7db definitely solves the problem. -- Mike Anderson 'FREE RADICAL RADIO!' (http://nvo.com/cd) Hours of free radical MP3s.

[slim] Artists showing up twice in Browse Artists
I know I've seen this problem mentioned elsewhere, but I can't find the thread now. This problem just started out of the blue. If I use the web interface to Slimserver and click on Browse Artist, some (but not all) of the artists are listed twice. Any clues? I'm running SlimServer Version: 6.2.2 - 6245 - Windows XP - EN - cp1252. -- Mike Anderson 'FREE RADICAL RADIO!' (http://nvo.com/cd) Hours of free radical MP3s.

[slim] Re: Random Play is SO Non-Random!
^^^ It could be random either way, it just depends on the sampling algorithm. The difference is between random sampling with replacement (songs can be repeated) and random sampling without replacement (a song can only be played once). -- Mike Anderson 'FREE RADICAL RADIO!'

I'll take this opportunity to put in a plug one more time for some kind of iTunes-like GUI for Slimserver on PCs and Macs. That's what really makes me think about using something else (even though I probably won't.) I frequently use my laptop to control the Squeezebox, and I'm not that thrilled with the clunky HTML approach. I'd really, really love to be able to drag and drop to create and save playlists, scroll through my entire collection of songs on one fast, responsive screen, and use a slider to navigate through a particular song - Just like iTunes does, basically. If Slim Devices could come up with a slick frontend like that, I'd forget about anything else forever. I'd be willing to bet that a lot of other people feel the same way, especially those of us already used to iTunes.

[slim] WMA stream for KQED?
Does anybody know where I can get the WMA stream for KQED? The wiki page reports that it's: http://www.kqed.org/w/streamingfiles/kqed_wmp.asx However, if you try plugging this into the radio tune-in window in SlimServer, you only get the sponsor's lead-in, and the stream never starts. -- Mike Anderson 'FREE RADICAL RADIO!'
