Re: [slim] Announcing SqueezePad - the first dedicated iPad App to controll your SqueezeBoxen !

2013-12-13 Thread technoman

Hi

I love the product, all working great on my mini Denon system.

However today I just bought my first 'real' Squeezebox device in the
hope of multi room music. And there is a very annoying delay between the
squeezebox touch and the Squeezepad.

Any suggestions on how to cure this?

The Touch is wired and connected via optical to the av receiever in one
room, the iPad wirelessly connected to the network and connected to the
Denon system via USB

Thanks for any suggestions you can make

 Are you actually synching the two players (ipad and touch) versus simply
 playing the same thing on both players (which would have very different
 playback timing). They should synch perfectly, but you do have to
 formally synch the players to obtain this.


I am synching them by using the Synchronize setting on the iPad.
Synchronise with  Squeezebox Touch

The Touch then plays whatever I am playing on the iPad; if I change
music or skip forward a track the Touch does too.  But it's about a half
beat ahead when it is playing.

My own version of LMS.  It's running on a NAS using NAS4Free OS.

Thanks Gary and Pippin for the replies. I'm running LMS on a NAS, to
answer that question


Now that you say it gary, when I first set this up I had the iPad in my
hand and it seemed to be synched much better. I moved it to the other
room, plugged it in via USB and got the delay (there was a day in
between, so I didn't make the mental connection)

I'm looking in the Web UI for some way to adjust the delay but can't see
it?  I had looked before asking here too, on the player and now on the
server side

Add.. It works!

I played around a bit, in the wrong direction first because I thought it
need to set the delay on the 'leading' device rather than tell the
server 'this device is slower by xxx ms'.  An even 250ms seems to have
done the trick

It's the normal iPad connector/charging cable that connects.  It has
Apple connector on one end and USB on the other.  The Micro hi-fi is one
of these

Squeezepad running on an iPad 1, into this via USB gives a very
creditable sound indeed. I was considering picking up another iPad 1 for
the other room (e.g. something with a crack in the screen for £100)
instead of the Touch, but it doesn't play so nice with my Onkyo amp as
it does with the Denon

Thanks again to everyone for your help.  I'm really impressed by the
system - it's a shame they killed it
