Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] So what about the red one?

2009-10-06 Thread vw195

I almost pulled the trigger on the red one last night in the logitech
store, but evidently the logitech store wants sales tax.  Why in the
world would I need to pay sales tax in Tennessee.  Does logitech have a
storefront anywhere in Tn? Because if you don't, you shouldnt be taking
sales tax.. grr

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Alarmclock on the move

2009-10-06 Thread radish

Muele;467628 Wrote: 
 
 1. How does it handle being unplugged and replugged? I.E. does the
 alarms I have set remain in place etc.
 
Yes. Alarms are stored on the server (except the next scheduled one
which is also stored locally in case the network is lost).

 
 2. Similar to the above. How does it handle powersurges and
 networksurges? 
 
All electronics can potentially be damaged by a power surge or
lightning strike. Use a surge protector. I don't know what a
networksurge is.

 
 Will it be able to wake me up in all cases (given electricity is up at
 the time of awakening)?
 
Yes. If you have the battery pack, you wouldn't even need power to be
on.

 
 3. How is it to control in pitch darkness?
 
Not as good as the Boom IMHO, as the buttons aren't backlit. But
there's some light from the screen - certainly using the knob is no
problem.

 
 4. How flexible are the preset-buttons? I would like to add A) a
 sleep-timer-button since Logitech decided not to. B) All albums of a
 given genre for my kindergarden kids to be able to put on kids-music
 themselves (I don't think i can teach them to Browse genre - children,
 roll to the buttom and select all albums. Then they can choose by
 looking at the familiar album art).
 
Not sure. Some combo of standard options and custom button mappings can
probably do what you want.

 
 5. I know there is no snoozebutton, much to my regret. How is snoozing
 and turning off the alarm done? How easy is it to do it wrong when half
 asleep?
 
Snooze is I believe a push on the knob. Haven't tried it half asleep
:)

 
 6. If I fall asleep, wearing headphones, will the alarm sound from the
 speaker or just the headphones?
 
Speaker.

 By power- and network surge I simply mean power and network failure or

No problem, just confused me because surge means too much of
something rather than too little :)  Alarms will sound as long as it has
power from either the mains or the battery. I believe that network
outages are handled the same way as Boom, so that the next alarm will
still sound (but not subsequent ones) and it will use a buzzer if it
can't get to the configured file/stream.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Squeezebox Radio sound quality from WMA Lossless

2009-10-06 Thread Terje

I got my first two Radio's delivered while at the office today. Just now
I got back home and connected the baby to SBS and powered it up.
However, I have serious sound quality issues. The Radio seems to have
big issues with playing a lot of my WMA Lossless based music connection.
I have the Boom sitting in the same spot and it plays everything just
fine, so does my SB3's. I've tried switching between to see if it could
be SBS related, but only the Radio struggle. I also checked the settings
to see if I had limited the rate for the Radio and was doing any
additional transcoding on SBS. No luck. The sound breaks up, crackles
and songs seems to run slower than they should. I've only tested a few
albums yet, but like 3 out of 4 shows the problem.

[SlimDevices: Radio] Is the Squeezebox server required for Setup?

2009-10-06 Thread tamanaco

A friend wants to get SQB Radio or maybe the Boom. Is the Squeezebox
Server required for the initial setup of either of these? He only has a
Nettop at home with very little storage space left in the SD card. So,
no room to install the Squeezebox server. I want to avoid having to
bring my laptop to his house to configure his Radio or Boom. Can the
initial configuration be done using just the Radio/Boom and a Web
browser to register it on SN?  He just want to use the Squeezebox
Network for Pandora and a few foreign radio stations. He currently uses
the Nettop (which hangs at times) to listen streamed music  using some
crappy external speakers.

Glad to hear it -- as it's unlikely I'd buy a Squeezebox radio without
some control over the tone.

I already own two small non-IP radios that deliver too much bass
(perhaps to produce a big sound) -- and don't like them for that
reason.

Sure, I have it working that way already, no problems there. Just
