Re: [slim] squeeze server down? anyone else?

2012-12-23 Thread bitstopjoe

Yep happened to me too Tried everything but a full reset. Then I
left it powered off and went into my bedroom to try my other radio and
all worked fine. 
Of course then I thought, oh great my main one died. Lo and behold when
I turned it back on white symbol was there and all is well.
Just a preview I guess of things to come when the squeezebox server
goes bye bye and we all have to update to the UE version.
If they offered Iheart Radio I would have updated one of my radios
already.

Yep the local station I listen too ( WAEB AM 790 Allentown) also
streams in Iheart and is a Clear Channel station. This is what I was
trying to say the the O.P. So when my station and many others OLNY
stream in Iheart, we are screwed.. Unless of course, Logitech gets off
the pot and comes up with an app like OTHER streaming radios have
already done. Look ahead, not in the rear view mirror...

Re: [slim] This station is not available in your country

2012-03-23 Thread bitstopjoe

Happens to me as well. I have gotten it to work sometimes by pushing the
FF button. When that doesnt work I just push another preset and then
back to the one I want. 99% of the time this works, and if it doesnt
then I repeat till it does. 
I THINK it may have something to do with Iheart as the only station
this happens to me is an Iheart and since Logitech seems to not be
interested in releasing an Iheart app ( yeah yeah yeah I have read the
excuses they gave) I guess it is something we have to live with. When
my local station ONLY streams in Iheart then my SB Radio will be a nice
door stop.

Re: [slim] 7.7.1 not rescanning

Try deleting your cache folder and try again...
I use the Tiny SB Server built into the Touch and whenever I have that
problem ( rare these days after 7.6) I delete my cache folder on my
attached USB drive and all is well afterwards...

Sometimes after it craps out you will see a wipe and re-scan option
You can do that too as it will clear your cache and do a re-scan of ALL
files, so it may take a while...

Re: [slim] Why is it showing double albums on my Touch?

2011-09-17 Thread bitstopjoe

Try doing a wipe and rescan. I have had this happen as well ONLY using
the built in server on the Touch. So I either do a wipe and rescan or I
delete the cache folder on my attached USB drive.. Works for me...
I am also currently using 7.7.0_r9532 as NONE of the 7.6.1 releases
worked for me. It ALWAYS failed on the scaning of artwork with the
local service has stopped due to an error, error. So far this release
has worked perfectly for me...

Re: [slim] 7.6 is totally broken

Even if I do NOT have any SB server installed on my PC?? Which I do not.
I only use the server built into the Touch with a HD connected. This way
I can listen to music with having my PC on...
So if I have no PC connected how to I revert back? Can I copy the old
file to the HD connected to the Touch and do it from there?

Thank you.

Nah not worth the hassle. One would think since it is a standalone
server it should be able to downgrade if th file is available on a
drive connected to it.
Oh well. I guess I will just wait for a new firmware to be
released...

Thanks for your help and a dumb design flaw in my opinion...

HA I was JUST going to post I called support and was told to put
fab4.bin on an SD card and reboot the Touch. That did the trick. I KNEW
there had to be a way of doing it via the Touch's built in server.

Thank you for another way of doing it, MUCH appreciated.

When I set up a SB Radio for my mom a few months ago, no time. I went
upstairs to her PC and adj. the time ( it was way off) and still no

been ok since...

[slim] Pandora and Sirius question

2011-05-07 Thread bitstopjoe

I know Pandora does not stream higher than 128 and the same with Sirius.
I have a premium ( highter bit rate) with Sirius and yet it still only
streams at 128. So my question is.. Why bother paying for a premium
subscription for both of these services if all you do is stream them to
your SB??? Pandora says they are small and can't afford to stream at a
higher bit rate ( which makes no sense since they say they can stream
to your PC at a higher rate for $36 a year). Sirius never got back to
me when I asked why cant I stream to my Touch at a higher bit rate when
I am paying for the premium service now and it plays back on my PC at
the higher bit rate but not my SB.

Thank you...

Re: [slim] Pandora and Sirius question

2011-05-07 Thread bitstopjoe

Yep have the internet option and that is where I am able to hear, I
ASSUME, is 192 as opposed to 128 bit rate. Yet when I log into Sirius
from my Touch and check the info it shows it streaming at 128. Seeing
how Sirius nickel and dimes everything I would not doubt they charge
another fee for that. Oh well. Hopefully Pandora will start streaming
at a higher rate on the SB one day as well.

Thank you for the info..

Re: [slim] Pandora and Sirius question

2011-05-07 Thread bitstopjoe

Prior to their new interface, one had the option to switch between
standard and preimum and the difference was noticable. However that
option is no longer there so it is possible they no longer stream at
192. Which sucks as I didnt get any refund for NOT getting the
preimum sound...

Oh well.. With all that is out there to listen too, I don't see the
point in renewing when the times comes to Sirius...

Good point since it never said what the preimum bit rate was. All I know

DOH...
Oh well still no point it paying them for what I can get elsewhere for
free. I don't care about it in my car, so bye bye...

Until I get more HD space for my system ( I have 4 Fast SCSI III 10k

[slim] Duet or Touch

2011-04-06 Thread bitstopjoe

Since I sent my Boom back to Logitech, and they no longer make it, I
have a choice of waiting for the Booms replacement ( could be MONTHS)
or take a Touch or a Duet in its place. From what I have seen online I
am leaning towards the Touch because of the USB and SD card input.
Since I am Boomless I started hooking up some old audo equipment and
like how it sounds. Not top of the line like I used to have 30 or so
years ago, but plesant enough ( Mirage SM-2.5 speakers which I had to
re-foam the woofers first).
So that is why I am thinking of not waiting for the BoomII, or
whatever it is called ( son of Boom? :)

So any ideas to help me lean in the right direction? I mean since I
now have some audio it makes no sense for a Boom II, right??
