Re: [slim] SB Duet connected with external DAC

2008-10-31 Thread DejanM

I played with SB Duet Settings. I turned off Audio when the unit is off.
I also set that when powered off, receiver should be stopped when again
turned on. But it does not work ... 

Now I see another topic with the same issue and I see that somebody
already opened the bug. So I can only hope that in the next software
release we will get something that works ... I do believe though that
the whole concept with powering on/off of SB Duet should be redesigned.
It should go in power off modus after certain period of time when not
used and in this mode it should release its digital outputs.

Something like this might work for you.  Shop around and you can find
them with remote.  They make them with several different inputs and you
should be able to find one that will do what you need.

I think that this is a bug.

I have the same problem with my external DAC, and with the previous
version of SqueezeCenter (7.1) you could turn off the outputs when the
SB was turned off. From 7.2 onwards, this does not seem to work (even
though there is an option for it in the software).

It is not such a problem for me as I can manually switch my DAC's
inputs, but it would be nice to see it fixed. File a bug report and
hopefully it will get looked at.

Re: [slim] SB Duet connected with external DAC

2008-10-29 Thread Merlinwerks

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...

[slim] SB Duet connected with external DAC

2008-10-28 Thread DejanM

I have connected my SB Duet with an external DAC using Coax digital
output from SB. It works just fine and external DAC is doing a nice
job. The only problem that I have is the fact that SB Duet has a signal
on the digital output all the time - even when I shut receiver down or
when I close Squeeze Center. My external DAC shows locked digital input
signal all the time. It wouldn't be such a great problem for me if my
DAC does not have another optical input (where I connected my DVD
player)which works only if there is no Coax signal. SB Duet produces
this signal all the time and that means that I can forget the second
input to my DAC.

Does anybody have any idea how can I force SB Duet NOT to lock in my
external DAC when it is not playing ?
