I agree, my Ubuntu based Squeezeserver updated just fine, didn't lose any settings or favourites.

Re: [slim] Upgrade to- and use of 7.5.0=Smooth sailing
Upgrade was OK (on WHS) but could have been better; SBC forced the upgrade and then rolled-back, presumably when it saw that SBS hadn't (yet) been upgraded. If it knew enough to check SBS version after the upgrade, why wasn't that completed as a pre-check? Anyway, I upgraded SBS, then the SBC wanted to upgrade (again) and this time all was good, except that I lost sync on the Duet and Boom on the main-floor.

Re: [slim] Upgrade to- and use of 7.5.0=Smooth sailing
No, it is NOT smooth sailing. 1) All of my Favorites were deleted. 2) All of my Applications were reset. I now have a full list of them, including many I did not want and those I had (iPlayer, etc.) are gone. 3) The Staff Favorites which used to be a help in adding new streams is now grouped by staff member. Cute maybe, but not useful. I will need hours to return to get my system back to the state it was prior to the upgrade. I am an original SLiMP3 owner and have upgraded over the years as new devices came out. I now run a Duet, SB3, and the SLiMP3. I have been foolishly convinced over recent times with seamless upgrades to trust them, and for that now I pay with the cost of my Saturday morning. Thanks for nothing.

I upgraded from 7.4.3; fortunately, it was still in my downloads folder, so I just reinstalled it and everything is working fine again.

Re: [slim] Upgrade to- and use of 7.5.0=Smooth sailing
I can still add a stream to favorites. I can do this in the controller, by navigating to name of the station/stream, holding the center button down and I get a menu that has add to end, play next, play, save to favorites, etc. Can do the same thing in SQUEEZEPLAY from the + button in now playing. Or in iPENG, etc. To be fair, if I'm already Playing the stream and hit the center button, I don't get the same options. So the key is to back out to the name of the stream rather than being within the streamthen you can add to favorites. -- garym garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77054 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Upgrade to- and use of 7.5.0=Smooth sailing
After some misfortune with a previous upgrade (I forget which one, perhaps to 7.4.0?) I was wary of upgrading, and sat at 7.4.1 because I couldn't see anything in the 7.4.2 change log that interested me. I wasn't sure about 7.5.0 either, but wondered whether some of the various performance improvements and bugfixes might make things better. Before upgrading, I used the Control Panel to clean out the cache (which took a while). After that, my usual scan for new/changed took over an hour, instead of its usual 8 minutes or so; and I was left with some odd effects (most noticeably, my Receiver disappeared from all but the Info webpage and the Controller); though all seemed well after I'd hibernated the server and turned off the network overnight. After all that, the upgrade to 7.5.0 was trivial, taking all of 5 minutes; and everything seems to be working fine. (One minor problem was that the Controller balked at the installation of its firmware update, but got through it OK once I'd turned it off and on again.) I seem to see a big improvement in the responsiveness of the webiface (though this might be imagined, or could have been due to the cache-wipe, for all I know). I'm pretty certain that the scrolling behaviour of the Controller is now much better - I'm far less likely to overshoot by more than a few artists, for example. All in all, a pleasant surprise.
