[slim] Re: persistence of Shoutcast stations, implementation question in 6.2.2
Shoutcast stations have 2 URLs. The Shoutcast plugin gives you a standard one that looks like this: http://www.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein.pls?id=12345&filename=playlist.pls This link sends you a pls playlist file that contains 1 or more actual links to the stream. If you add to favorites from the list of stations, your favorite will include the tunein.pls link. If you add the favorite from Now Playing after you've started listening, you'll get the real stream link. Either type of link should continue to work. Sometimes stations will change their stream links, but I expect that's not a very common occurrence. You did mention you're using 6.2.2 which includes an outdated Shoutcast plugin that may no longer work properly. If you're concerned about this you may want to try playing Shoutcast via SqueezeNetwork or downloading a 6.3 nightly build. -- andyg andyg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23750 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Duet vs Sonos
I don't claim to know anything about the Sonos architecture but I would guess they only have one connection to the Rhapsody audio and then transport the decrypted audio within their closed network to each player. We can't do that, so each player needs a separate connection to the Rhapsody server. The reason internet radio can't be synced well when on SN is because each player must make its own connection to the radio server, which means each player will most likely start at a different point in the audio. There is no way to sync the audio if they don't start from a known good point. This is why sync does work fine for track-based content such as Pandora - all the players will start playback at the same time with the same exact file. -- andyg andyg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43155 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Duet vs Sonos
Right, players don't talk to each other, only the server. In order to share a single Rhapsody connection, the server would need to talk directly to Rhapsody, and this is not possible because our server is open source. -- andyg andyg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43155 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
