Re: [slim] Please tell me it ain't so.
IMHO Logitech just don't know how to exploit the SB line's true potential. Why ? Because they are a hardware company. To reach mass market the high end capability offered by FLAC capable streaming needs to be built into some product by recognised hifi manufacturers. Instead you get Denon, Onkyo, Marantz etc developing kit to work with massively inferior DLNA. Clearly Logitech won't licence SB for use by these competitors - or will they? d6jg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96999 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Good Squeezebox alternative?
Thanks Triode. Good suggestion. I already have a Behringer UAC202 which I use for digitising vinyl. That has an passthrough Optical out as well as Analogue and should work with a Pi as a USB sound card without any additional drivers I imagine. I like my main Living Room player (SB3) connected both digitally and analogue to benefit from Onkyo's Zone 2 output which I fire at a headphone amp. A Pi DAC could ultimately replace that.

Have an iPod Touch and iPhone 4S with iPeng + Playback on both. The Touch is second gen so a bit limited. I regularly use the iPhone as a remote player and stream from my home system when in hotels etc but to if I had a 3rd gen Touch then I would experiment with that as a player using initially a Cambridge Audio analog dock and use the iPhone as the controller which is what it is generally used for. At present I don't need another player but if I did I would consider the following (no particular order):- A Raspberry Pi An iDevice with Onkyo dock (because it has both digital and analog output) A netbook running Squeezeplay and USB DAC An eBay SB3 or Touch There are plenty of options that will allow me loads of years worth of listening. d6jg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97532 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] It's all gone pear-shaped.... and for no good or obvious reason
You said it is a new router. It may be a faster wifi butworsesignal strength. If you have still got the old router try using it as a Wireless Access Point instead of the routers wi-fi. You switch wireless off on the active router. You make an old router into a WAP by connecting to it with a single machine cabled. You give it a static IP and switch off its DHCP server. If for example the active router is 192.168.1.2 make the WAP 192.168.1.2. Plug the WAP into the active router (LAN port to LAN port). Connect a device to the WAPs wireless and see if you can surf etc. Then try your Boom back in its original position. I googled the Netgear router and I see it's an expensive one (for a home device) but that doesn't unfortunately mean it is guaranteed to work with everything.

Re: [slim] differnetial versus incremental backsup
Since upgrading to 7.7.2 I have changed strategy a little. LMS 7.7.2 is the first version that I have experienced that allows multiple music folders. I now have my music stored in Music and Music2014 - the former never changes and the latter is of course getting added to regularly. This has had an impact on my backup strategy as follows: LMS is installed on a QNAP NAS with a second QNAP as a local backup device but the strategy could apply to any Linux servers. Music has been rsynced to QNAP2 with LMS on it in case of need on a weekly basis until 31/12 but the job is now switched off. Music2014 is now rsynced every Sun. Offsite backup is provided FOC courtesy of Google Play Music where I run MusicManager on a PC which sends the contents of Music2014 up to the Cloud. As with the rsync job Music used to be the source so I have a full copy of all my mp3s available via Google Play but I am nearing the 20,000 track limit. When I do I shall set up Music2015 or whatever and rsync that to the second QNAP and also to a second Google Play Account. Couple of notes. My collection is high res mp3 only but I understand Google will transcode FLACs as they get uploaded. Most of the time I can stream remotely from my LMS via VPN but when I cant for some reason I have the Google Play Music streaming to fall back on.

[slim] OT - I need a new pair of wireless headphones
In the Living Room I have an SB3 that is attached to my AV Receiver using both digital and analogue connections. I mainly use the analogue via Zone 2 to a separate Sony amp for listening via headphones while SWMBO is watching TV. I have a number of pairs of headphones ranging from some top end wired ones to a pair of Sennheiser RS 130's which are RF wireless. They are perhaps 10 years old and the on ear volume control is starting to cause issues so I am after a new pair of wireless cans. I do not want Bluetooth. Anyone got any suggestions. I can afford something better than the RS130s but struggling to find anything other than Sennheisers as a possible replacement. Ideally I want a stand/recharge cradle like the130s. d6jg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102515 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] OT - I need a new pair of wireless headphones
Definitely not rejecting Sennheisers. I am just not aware of anything else. I will need to test the RS170/180 and 220 I guess. Leakage could be an issue for SWMBO but the RS130s are open and she doesnt complain about them so I guess audio quality and comfort should be my main criteria.

Using a pair of Sennheiser HD201s - cheap closed cans but nice sound - plugged into a mk3 ipod touch with ipeng player. Sounds better than the RS130s! No hiss at all.

Re: [slim] What is the best way to add a room to your server these days?
If you are going laptop then try to find one where you can remove the battery but still run it off mains. Some have mains input into the battery direct some into the laptop outside of the battery. WOL is unlikely to work even on an Ethernet connection as above as Laptops hardware spec doesn't forsee a need for it. If you have XP installed first try Squeezeplay into either a USB DAC or active speakers with a USB interface. Forget the onboard sound card - it will be rubbish.

Remove the static IP on Ethernet. Each network card has its own MAC address. You can't have the 2 MAC addresses - wired wireless - with the same IP.

Even with VAT taken into account it is still vastly more than is paid in US. It's a rip off that lots of companies apply to UK.

+1 for PiCorePlayer. Probably the hardest part is deciding what to use to output the audio. The onboard analogue is a no no, HDMI is OK but you really need a supported USB DAC or an add on DAC card for the Pi.

As far as I am concerned (only worried about 16bit) the only real downside of HDMI is the fact that you are also outputting video. My Onkyo AV Receiver will only let you switch off the audio on the HDMI OUT not the video albeit I accept you can operate the Receiver with the TV switched off.

Re: [slim] Help- upgraded to fibre broadband, now players can't find server
It is nothing to do with port forwarding. It is a basic networking issue. I would suggest that the new router's DHCP has dished out new/different IPs to the LMS SBTouch. Go to home screen on Touch do My Music, then Change Library - do you see your LMS listed ? If so try connecting to it again.

Re: [slim] Help- upgraded to fibre broadband, now players can't find server
Was that the same is it was when you had the Netgear? Are the SB3 Touch in the same range i.e 192.168.1.x QNAP TS419P 4TB LMS7.7.2 *Living Room* - SB3 - Onkyo TS606 connected Digitally - Celestion Ditton F20s - and connected Analogue for Zone 2 - Sony TA FE 320 - Sennheiser RS 130 *Office* - SB3 - Sony TA FE320 - Wharfedale Modus Cubes *Dining Room* - SB Boom *Kitchen* - UE Radio (upgraded to SB Radio) *Bedroom (Bedside)* - SB Touch - Topping TP21 - AKG Headphones *Bedroom (TV)* - Amazon Fire TV (SB Player) - Topping TP20 - Wharfedale Modus Cubes Various iThingys with iPeng Tablets etc d6jg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102740 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Help- upgraded to fibre broadband, now players can't find server
Also if the Netgear was 192.16.0.x or anyting other than 192.168.1.x then the whole network has changed. Check the firewall on your PC - are you allowing a different network through? Is the new network a Home or Work network? Can you ping the router and SB3 / Touch from the server?
