Re: [slim] Community Funded Squeezebox Replacement - Would you be interested?
TuneIn is independent of MySB for the most part. TuneIn actually receives a fee per player sold, I am not sure if they receive an ongoing payment beyond this. So in effect you have already paid for TuneIn. I am not sure if it could be left enabled in LMS, but their feed is a simple public OPML feed... andyg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97881 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Community Funded Squeezebox Replacement - Would you be interested?
Hi everyone. Unsurprisingly, the other shoe began to drop today with Logitech laying off a handful of folks within the team, including myself. I haven't read through very much of this thread but I wanted to say that I am very pleased to see this effort in finding a way forward in the post-Logitech world, and I had no doubt this great community would already be on top of things here. :) A couple of changes I was thinking of implementing involve removing MySqueezebox.com support from the ip3k firmware, SqueezePlay, and LMS. I do not know what Logitech plans to do with MySB but it is just a matter of time before either they stop funding it, or it breaks with no one to fix it. Sadly most music services will have to be removed, but Triode's Spotify plugin shows it might be possible for the community to reimplement some of them, if they have public documentation. As for Smart Radio, personally I'd like to see those devices allowed to become SB Radios if Logitech decides to stop supporting the uesmartradio.com backend. Unfortunately Logitech controls distribution of the SR firmware so this will require cooperation from them. I would recommend not investing any time into supporting Smart Radio. andyg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97881 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

If you have bridging enabled you will need to disable it to use Rhapsody. Rhapsody is very tight on memory due to a recent security increase, and bridging is now too much to run at the same time.

There is nothing preventing gapless from working on DLNA renderers, it's just a matter of proper playback design, but most of these are very dumb devices and not likely to care about gapless.

Re: [slim] Rhapsody no longer compatible with my Touch???
The problem was caused by Rhapsody changing the DNS address of their API server. There is some code to handle this case for older ip3k-based players, but it's not necessary for SP players. Unfortunately that code got ported from ip3k and was broken. So if by chance you were still on a server (SBS or MySB) that hadn't restarted since the DNS change, you would have still been able to connect to Rhapsody. -- andyg andyg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83135 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
