Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Anyone running SlimRio Still?
I know that these posts are pretty old, but I have several rio receivers and am currently setting up a raspberry pi with ubuntu server to feed them. If anyone needs assistance with setup, let me know. ddill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71601 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79373 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Probably a long shot after all these years but does anyone have the necessary files to set up a SlimRio? The links I've found are all dead.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Anyone running SlimRio Still?
Just chiming in to say that I still have 3 rio along side my duets. I have to keep the bit rate low, but 128kbps seems to be stable enough and still provide decent quality for the garage and other secondary rooms in the house. Trying to synchronize with the duets is just not an option, as the synch mechanism tends to skip some beats on my duets. Also, they don't keep a steady connection to the server like the duets do; it's often a pain to get them to connect with power off/on cycles. Finally, I have to say that they are very sensitive to the network cable type you use as well as to what kind of switch you plug them in. I have a dedicated, older, 10/100 switch that I connect to my gigabit switch. sle118's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35009 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79373 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Anyone running SlimRio Still?
SBS still supports SliMP3. There is at least one other person around here still running SlimRio. There are a few more still running it over at the empeg/Rio bbs http://empegbbs.com/ubbthreads.php/forums/17/1/General I wouldn't bother personally, SlimRio was always a pain in the arse to get working and even then it only worked well with the hack that dropped the sample rate to 22khz, which meant it didn't sound very good even when it worked. I gave most of my Rios some time ago to a friend who still persists with them and replaced them with Squeezeboxes. My empegs are still going strong though. -- andynormancx Yes, it will. Yes, all of them. Yes, SoftSqueeze as well. What ?

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Anyone running SlimRio Still?
Thanks for the feedback... I think that Im starting to see Andy's point... the display say server not found, but navigating around, everything seems to work fine. I haven't thrown any speakers on it yet (in the process of moving houses) to see how it plays but seems like it certainly works in concept. We'll see how it goes with it. I figured it would be nice to give to my 5 year old daughter for her room since she can probably deal with 22Khz okay for now. I certainly love my various squeezeboxes that I already have but as Dan said, the Rio is a nice package, buttons, display, amp... all in a nice little box. thanks again for the opinions and info... jess -- mhavoc mhavoc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8901 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79373 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
