No, just playing spotify / and 192k mp3s from my library. I uninstalled the group player plugin because it caused too many headaches with player volumes. I'm also going to try rebooting my server.

I have about 5 echos throughout the house, but i'm not using them for music anymore, so it's squeezebox only on the music side. The players that drop out are indeed in sync groups. 2 are SB Receivers, 1 is a radio. The controller isn't that big of a deal as I rarely use it and it's not required for audio. 1 Touch 4 Receivers 3 Controllers 3 Radios (I think I have a problem) FredFredrickson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16584 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114213 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

What's changed is that I've added a few new boxes to my setup (from ebay) and started using it over amazon echos on a daily basis.

There's nothing that stands out.. at the moment. The server is a Win 10 box with firewall disabled and is wired gigabit connection. The devices come back online when I restart them but it looks like over the course of the day they "drop" and never re-associate. 1 Touch 4 Receivers 3 Controllers 3 Radios (I think I have a problem) FredFredrickson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16584 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114213 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Players disconnecting but online
I didn't know where to post this- I'm having issues with *some* but not all of my players dropping off LMS on a semi-regular basis. Sometimes it's a Radio or Controller, they show a BLUE wifi icon. Sometimes It's my recievers that show a DIM WHITE icon. At first I thought it might be signal but I have a fairly decent wireless router- and something I noticed, they appear online to my router, they have a DHCP lease, and they respond to PINGS, but LMS doesn't pick them up until I reboot them. Any ideas where to look? According to LMS they're all in the 95-100% signal range (when they're there). 1 Touch 4 Receivers 3 Controllers 3 Radios (I think I have a problem) FredFredrickson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16584 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114213 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Scheduling Automated Events / Settings Changes
I am attempting to automate a few things which I'm finding relatively difficult and I'm wondering if anybody has any ideas. I'm open to even using a third party (like IFTTT or even windows task scheduler to hit a url) but I would like to set each of my players to specific volumes at certain times of the day. Right now I can set one player's volume at alarm time- but the synced players don't seem to be affected by it. And I can only set one volume for all alarms. Is there a way to automate: * the sync and unsync of players at specific times * The volume of players at specific times 1 Touch 4 Receivers 3 Controllers 3 Radios (I think I have a problem) FredFredrickson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16584 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114202 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Problems with Split Artists / Albums
I know this issue comes up a lot- but I swear I've scoured the forum and can't find threads on it... I recently had to reinstall LMS, which rebuilt my music database from scratch, and I'm having split artists that didn't exist before. 9 out of 10 songs will be on one album, the 10th will be on a new identical album. With the exact same name, capitalization and spelling... The other problem is that I have multiple artists with different capitalization. Which is very frustrating. A third problem which I understand the cause of is some artists with "The" in their name are showing up as multiple artists: The Stills Stills, The I know the best solution is to "fix" my tags but with many thousands of songs it's a big task... Is there a way to fix the capitalization splits.. and how do I fix these albums split on seemingly nothing (see attached): https://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=29219=1=1580396589 +---+ |Filename: artists.png | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=29219| +---+ 1 Touch 2 Receivers 1 Controller 2 Radios FredFredrickson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16584 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111580 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
