Re: [slim] Extreme difference in library scan times between servers ?

When I right-clicked music folder, went to "permissions tab", checked that everyone had read access, ticked the "apply this to all subfolders and files"-box, then apply - it went very quickly at first, as if all these settings had been applied already - then it started displaying specific files and folders names, as if these ones had to have these "new" permissions applied to them. Why would this be ? I have never changed anything about this setting. Could I have downloaded music files that have had different permission settings set on them already, that they have then retained while downloaded to my NAS ? Or is that not how it works ?

Re: [slim] Extreme difference in library scan times between servers ?
Dont want to hijack the thread but a close friend and I observe a similar difference: On the same ~150k tracks library (mixed FLAC/MP3), I usually get between *815 minutes* for an update scan, while his machine regularly takes much more than *20 hours* for the same. We both use the same LMS version and have the same settings, the machines differ as follows: Mine: Ubuntu Studio 14.04, XFCE, Dell Optiplex 7010 (4-core i5-3470), 32 GB RAM, boot disc: 1TB SSD, music disc: 4TB HGST HDD. His: Linux Mint 17.3 (based on Ubuntu 14.04), Cinnamon, Dell Optiplex 9010 (4-core i7-3770), 16 GB RAM, boot+music disc: 4TB WD SSHD. Could that really "only" be his slower DE and 16 GB less RAM, and/or running from a SSHD instead of an SSD/HDD combination?

[slim] SB2 has died
My SB2 (bought back in 2005) seems to have finally turned up its toes. A few weeks ago the display apparently failed, but the unit was still working and playing OK. Yesterday I went to use it and it was totally unresponsive, and not showing as a player in LMS. The power supply wall-wart is fine, supplying 5.08V. This is a wired-only SB2, so it can't be due to a failed WiFi board. I tried going through the motions of a factory reset and Xilinx reset, and nothing appears to happen. When I apply power, the optical output does NOT glow red. So, I'm ready to accept it is done for and replace it with a RPi, but before I do that is there anything I can check on the circuit board? There are no visibly burned out components. What voltages can I check?

Re: [slim] SB2 has died
You can try taking out the wifi board even if not using it. I have a SB Radio that will not boot with the wifi board in it but will if I take it out (and then use it from ethernet).

Re: [slim] Extreme difference in library scan times between servers ?
regularly takes much more than *20 hours* for the same. 20 hours is too much. Check the scanner.log file and the server's status page. Where is it spending all this time? -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] SB2 has died
Ah - I thought the meaning was it was only used in Ethernet not that there was never any Wi-fi available on that particular device at all. That does explain a couple of recovered SB2 devices that I have with holes in the back ... I had thought that the card and antenna had been taken out to use somewhere else rather than never having been fitted.

A common failure mode of these are to measure fine on open output but buckling when asked to drive any load. alfista's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32396 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111255 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
