Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] SB Touch and Internet Radio

2020-05-30 Thread ews2k


OK, sorted with opening the unit without any damage. Nothing really
serviceable in there as I had suspected but wanted to follow the voltage
trail from the power socket. While doing so, the unit woke up and is
working once again.

Unfortunately the intermittent buzzing sound is back, solved only by
unplugging the Touch for a while. The noise is reminiscent of "White
Noise" more than anything else and completely drowns the audio output.

[SlimDevices: Touch] Touch can't find network after power outage

2020-05-30 Thread se74


Hi!

I've searched the forum, but this issue does not seem to have been
covered.

I've never had my Touch connected via Ethernet cable. It's always been
wifi.

We sometimes have power outages here. When the power is restored, the
Touch goes into "can't find wired network, make sure blah blah blah".
The same if I try to reset to factory settings and setup from scratch.

I have the latest LMS installed on my MacBook Pro, and our router is
TPLink EBA-848. I do not have an Ethernet cable. 

I have sometimes managed (by what seems to be magic) after several times
unplugging the Touch, doing factory resets, unplugging the router,
restarting my computer and restarting the LMS, and various combinations
thereof, to get back to a working screen (my screensaver is the clock).
I hardly ever play music on the Touch nowadays and can't remember why I
thought I needed a standalone music player when I bought it. But it is a
handy (if expensive)  digital clock.

Can anyone suggest a short and simple way to get back to the clock or a
working screen after power outages instead of scrabbling around for a
hit or miss (mostly miss) solution?

Thank you.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Opening Touch Casing on dead Touch

2020-05-30 Thread ews2k


Thank you guys, problem (sort of) solved. The PSU is fine, I drove the
SB Classic with it and all was good. Voltage measured at 4.91 which is
within limits.

With the helpful advice from John Swenson's article from the link posted
by bpa, I managed to open the unit quite easily. Most difficult part was
find drivers that matched the Touch's screws (T10 Torque driver for the
foot, small Posidrive for the casing screws) and looked in dreaded fear
at the inside. While still pondering the best way forward, I had one of
my rear brainwaves which was to plug the PSU in and try measure the
voltage whilst on load. Easier said than done, I had not yet
disconnected the PC Flexicables nor removed the PCB board and while
still looking for a suitable voltage measuring point I noticed the unit
had come back to life again. I gently shook the unit, probed to find a
possible dry joint (yes, as if that is even possible!) and it remained
on.

Put it all back together and listening to Boss Radio now as I type this
:)

So although I cannot report on what the problem is/was, as long as it is
working I am quite happy!

I just love this unit in spite of its quirks:   (See from reply #37
onwards)

There were seven changes that impacted networking set up. I have not
been following the thread, so I don't know which might be a likely
candidate. Here's a list of the changes, should someone wish to review.
The last one looks intriguing, it seems that it might disable ethernet
unless connectivity to mySB.com can also be established.

Are you sure the PSU is fine? The touch might draw a bit more power than
the SB3. If the optical port is still glowing, I'd try a replacement PSU
first.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Squeeze Box Touch won't boot

Seems I am the latest member of this exclusive Club. Touch worked 100%
last night, dead as a dodo this morning.

I am trying to disassemble the unit but wary of doing more damage than
good when removing the casing. Has anyone tried disassembly of the
unit?

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] need help with internal power regulators

RolGrol,

I might have a similar problem although I was using the 5v PSU as
supplied with the unit.

I need to open my SB Touch as well due to a possible power issue as the
unit is now totally dead. Are there any issues to be wary of when
prising the casing open after removing the two screws holding it
together? Your advice will be moist helpful.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] SB Touch and Internet Radio

2020-05-30 Thread ews2k


The Touch still displayed the buzzing problem but not as frequently as
before. I was hopinjg the problem would solve itself and just go away,
but this did not happen.

What did happen is that the Touch worked 100% last night but this
morning the display is completely dead, the unit does not power on
although the red optical light does burn so it is receiving power. The
transformer unit is fine, it works perfectly on my SB Classic.

I removed the stand (2 screws) as well as 2 tiny screws apparently
holding the casing together. Before I actually prise the unit apart, is
there anything I should be aware of such as ribbon cables or whatever
that could become damaged by opening the casing?

[SlimDevices: Touch] Opening Touch Casing on dead Touch

2020-05-30 Thread ews2k


My Touch died last night, the unit does not power on although I can see
the red optical light burning. The power adaptor is fine, it works 100%
on the Classic.

I removed the two silver screens holding the Touch stand and there are
two tiny little black screws holding the casing together which I have
also removed. Is there anything I must be careful of before trying to
prise the casing open to investigate what is happening?

No need to uninstall LMS. Just use your browser to load the default look
to LMS. e.g. if your server is on 192.168.1.1 then go to "http://
192.168.1.1:9000/Default" in your browser. This will then show LMS's
default web page. Bottom-right twill be "Settings" - clicking on that
will take you to the "Server settings". When that loads there will be
some tabs along the top. Select the "Advanced" tab. Within that tab will
be a drop-down menu, select "Material Skin" from there. This will show
Material's settings - one of these being the password.



*Material debug:* 1. Launch via http: //SERVER:9000/material/?debug=json
2. Open browser's developer tools 3. Open console tab in developer tools
4. REQ/RESP messages sent to/from LMS will be logged here.

I know this is in the Touch forum, but it sounds like you are referring
to Material skin on LMS? If so, it appears you have set a password in
Material's server-side preferences. When one is set Material will hide
certain options (server settings, alarms, etc.). To enable them, you
then need to set the same password in Material's 'Settings' dialog on
the current device (phone, laptop, etc). If you look in Material's
settings dialog and you can see a 'Settings password' entry - then you
have enabled this feature. If this was enabled by mistake, use "http://
SERVER:9000/Default" to access the default web UI, then go to
Settings/Advanced/Material Skin and clear the password there.
