Re: [slim] Recommended Squeezebox controller app for iPad?
Thanks for the pointing me in the right direction bluegaspode. I'll read the thread and decide. pipin, I'm guessing third app isn't even worth looking at ;-) Regarding the phone controllers, when my iPhone was eligible for an upgrade I switched over to the Captivate. I'm regretting that choice now as it is suffering from the random shutdown issue plaguing ATT. However, SqueezeCommander is an awesome Android app. I just wish it had a couple small features like the ability to mark the currently playing song a favorite. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83828 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Recommended Squeezebox controller app for iPad?
I am going to buy both. I often have folks over who are uneducated in the technical world, so it will be nice to have a simpler straight forward app. But, it sounds like I'll probably use iPeng most of the time. Can't say for sure until my iPad arrives, due in this week. In regards to the two philosophies, I think there is a market for both of them. I've been a developer for almost 20 years. The company I work for has always been the leader and known for the place to go for all the bells and whistles. This year, we've been working on a lite, simple to use version that is starting to take off. So, like I said, you both fill needs for all types of users which I think is great. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83828 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Announcing SqueezePad - the first dedicated iPad App to controll your SqueezeBoxen !
@bluegaspode - It is by no means a deal breaker if you don't support portrait, but IMHO, it would add to the app being polished. When marketing comes over to my desktop and wants my desktop application to work with large fonts turned on (120dpi vs 96dpi) I do what I can to support it because there are users out there who use large fonts in Windows, just like there are users who would prefer portrait. Again, for me it's not a deal breaker. I personally have not purchased a dock just yet, I'm looking at the Altec Landsing dock since it will rotate to landscape. My intended use other than sitting on my couch will be to have it sit on the kitchen counter while I'm entertaining to allow guests to walk up and search for music and add it to the current playlist like a jukebox. So yes, there are times I'll want to leave the iPad docked while playing. I now have three Squeezebox devices (radio, boom and touch) and have been using your application exclusively. You have definitely nailed it!

[slim] How to play large FLAC files with numerous wireless players
When I play my music, I like having all my players in the various rooms turned on. So as I'm cooking, cleaning, wandering through the house I can hear my music wherever I go. Since I've recently increased the number of players, when a large FLAC file tries to play the network is just not able to handle it and the players will start to stutter and get out of sync. I started looking at the various advanced settings and found Synchronized players startup delay ms and thought that increasing this value would give each player additional time to buffer more of the song and solve my problem, but it doesn't look like it works like that. I took the Touch off the wireless and ran a cable but that didn't help much. I'm running SBS 7.5.3 r31972 on a HP MediaSmart 485EX with a beefed up system drive. There are 8 wireless players and one player on ethernet.

Re: [slim] How to play large FLAC files with numerous wireless players
The router is a Belkin N+ at one end of the house with a Hawking wireless extender at the other end of the house. Both are using channel 1, maybe I should try switching one of them to another channel? The 5 radios are connected to the Hawking (because they don't like the Belkin) 3 Booms are connected to the Belkin and the Touch is on ethernet. The house is all brick ~2400 sqft. and the walls are wood 2x4 studs covered with drywall. Because I have two access points, all players have at least a 75% wifi signal. @toby, I can sync 4 players fine, it's when I have all 8 or 9 synch'd and the FLAC is over 20meg when the problem occurs. Is it possible to add a second extender to a wifi network? I would certainly consider that option if it means I don't have to limit the bitrate. I'm not an audiophile, but definitely can tell a big difference when playing my FLAC files vs. my MP3's. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86757 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

JJZolx;622831 Wrote: An 'extender' operates as a wireless repeater, doesn't it? I'm not sure you could operate it on a different channel. I also wouldn't be surprised if it was a source of some of your problems, as you'll get only half the potential wireless bandwidth for devices connecting to it (because the repeater has to both receive and then repeat each signal wirelessly), plus all of its traffic will have to travel through the main wireless access point. It's just giving you a better wireless signal at the other end of the house, but at the expense of bandwidth. If I'm right about that, then you'd be much better off running ethernet to a second wireless access point, on a different channel from the first one and with the same SSID, as Gary suggests. Yes, what you say makes a LOT of sense. I think for a short term solution I'll install LAME and limit the bitrate when I want all the players on, then look into running CAT5 to a second AP on a different channel. I can see that being a decent long term solution. I'll just get a decent G router for this purpose and it would be super cheap. I guess my question would be, if both AP's are using the same SSID on different channels, will only one be visible since they are using the same name? And, how do you know which AP you're connecting to? There seems to be one vote for the same name and one for using a different name. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86757 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] How to play large FLAC files with numerous wireless players
The cheap $20 TP-Link access point arrived today. I configured so it had an IP address of the very last IP in my main routers DNS pool. I disabled DNS on the new AP and set the default gateway and DNS servers to the IP of the main router. The main AP is using channel 1 so I set the new AP to use channel 11. I gave the new AP a very appropriate name (SqueezeBox), set it to use the same security type with the same password and then applied the settings. I verified I was able to connect to the new AP using my phone and could get online. I then ran a cable so the new AP is positioned about in the middle of the house. I left the three booms connected to the main AP, and one at a time changed each of the five radios over to the new AP. After configuring a radio I played a FLAC that would fail before and repeated with another radio until they were all connected. When it was all said and done, all five radios, three booms and the touch were streaming my large FLAC files throughout the house without a hiccup!! Another observation is that my controllers seem to refresh faster, maybe due the additional bandwidth available now? Anyway, I wanted to let everyone know the recommended solution worked like a charm and I'm happy as can be.

I now have the N-AP on channel 1, the second G-AP on channel 6 and the latest G-AP on channel 11. I have three players connected to each AP and the 57mb file plays fine. The only side effect I've discovered is that my HTPC's wireless Adesso keyboard lags big time when the players are streaming.

Channels 1, 6 and 11 don't overlap, so in your case, where you're using three distinct channels on three APs, it may be the best choice, but if you were running just one or two APs in an areas where other wireless networks might interfere then some other channels may be better.

[slim] SqueezeCommander issues.
Of all the apps this has always been my favorite. But since the update where the UI was changed (0.9.6.1) I often have problems connecting to my local SBS. Restarting and rebooting the phone is of no use, after a day or two it will start working again. All my other controllers connect just fine, just SqueezeCommander has problems. This is a shame as I want this to continue being my favorite app but my patience is getting the best of me. :-) -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89510 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Note: I haven't attempted 7.7 yet, but have had this with prior versions. Actually, I had to manually remove the old add-in via registry edit and manually delete the SqueezeBox folders under app data and progam files. Then and only then was I able to get 7.7 installed. My guess is that when I uninstalled 7.6.2 it didn't succeed and therefore the 7.7 install was having troubles. -- realcodeguy realcodeguy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41870 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91262 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

It would also be nice if SqueezeCommander or the Logitech app ran on the Revue, but I've heard that unless the app is specifically marked as being Google TV compatible that it won't run.

[slim] Four used Squeezebox Radios (2 black, one red, one white)
I have these four radios for sale. I have the boxes to all of them and the power adapters (no remotes, batteries or other accessories). The white one has a box from a black radio. Looks like they are selling used for a little more than a hundred each on eBay. I have disowned eBay (they don't seem to care) so I am not interested in selling them there. This community really helped me when I was heavily into this platform. If anyone here would like to take all four of them I will let them go for $200. I'd rather not sell them individually so you're getting a great deal to buy all of them. I will charge actual shipping costs so if you want to do research on shipping coming from 73044 I will ship whatever method you decide, again, actual cost. I sold my two touches and duet here a couple of years ago, if you search the forum you can probably find those messages so you know I'm real and legit. They are all in good shape, if you want pictures feel free to ask and I'll snap a few pics with my phone and upload to photobucket. I don't frequent the forum here like I used to so it's best to send an email if you're interested. realcode...@gmail.com Thanks.
