It changed from one to the other station with a beep and pause in between. unfortunately the third alarm using a music tone went on ad nauseum until I switched it off so this can't be used as an off alarm. I will experiment with some radio stations that don't play, and could use these as off alarms. dood's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56698 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96117 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
[SlimDevices: Touch] can you set duration of alarms?
I use the alarms to turn on the SBT as my alarm clock every morning. I set it to turn on a radio station rather than alarm sound. Is there any way to get it to turn itself off say after 2 hours? Perhaps integrate the sleep function? Wishful thinking: can I get it to change stations at pre-determined times? dood's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56698 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96117 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

[SlimDevices: Touch] squeezecommander vs squeezebox app
I've downloaded squeeze commander as an alternative to the Logitech android app, after reading how much better it is. I've found that it is not very intuitive. For example I can't figure out how to change the player. In the settings it shows that it sees 2 players. On the Logitech app you simply touch the name of the player and you get a list of players to select. The Logitech app also has a split screen that allows you to see more. I don't get how the paid app is better.

[SlimDevices: Touch] BBC live does not work through DAC
I can access internet radio on my SBT as expected. When I go to BBC iplayer, it plays the recorded programs on the various channels but does not play the live broadcast. After assessing variables I discovered that this only happens when the SBT is connected to my external DAC (an old Wadia12). When I connect the SBT to my amp via analogue outputs, the BBC live plays fine. Has anyone else encountered this issue? I suspect it is because my DAC is several years old, but it would be interesting to see if it happens on newer DACs, and what the explanation is for this behaviour. dood's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56698 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95994 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

It can also be a word length problem for the old DAC keep the squeezebox volume at 100% and try again If I remember correctly it is 44.1 and 48. I'll check when I get home whether it automatically detects the frequency or if I have to manually select 48kHz. I've only used it with CDs at 44.1kHz. Will also try the volume setting. dood's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56698 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95994 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] SBT not seeing server

Try disabling Twonky for a few days to see if LMS works fine then. So far so good, LMS and twonkymedia both streaming. However, I have now encountered a new problem: I can't access internet radio, either on the SBT or on the ipad app. When I tap on internet radio it goes to BBC iplayer only.

[SlimDevices: Touch] SBT not seeing server
I have had my SBT for a few weeks now. Unfortunately it only functions intermittently. I have a QNAP NAS which store my music files. I have installed LMS on it. I have a wifi network at home and the SBT connects to it and there's no problem getting internet radio. I have succeeded in accessing my music from the NAS on the SBT, and when it works it's fine. If I attach a USB stick it sees it and can play the music on it. The problems: 1. The SBT sometimes doesn't see the network. After powering on and off, unplugging and replugging mains, getting to the menu that allows me to re-input wifi password, I have managed to get it back. 2. Currently it connects to internet, and I am listening to internet radio. However it does not see the music on my NAS (in fact it doesn't see the NAS) and tells me to install LMS on my computer. Yet I can see the music on my laptop and play it on itunes. 3. The squeezebox app on my ipad is erratic. Sometimes it shows my music and lists internet radio stations. However, at the moment it shows what song is playing but I can't get back to the main menu.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] SBT not seeing server
update I went into the QNAP admin page. Disabled LMS ans re-enabled it. Went to SBT, switched libraries and it saw my NAS and music. So the question is why is it losing connection to the NAS? Another question: How do I create music playlists on my computer that can be accessed by the SBT from the NAS (ie when computer turned off). the only playlists I see on the SBT are the radio stations I've added. dood's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56698 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95851 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

toby10 wrote: If this is happening when you power up the NAS then it is likely that the NAS is too slow on it's bootup and not fully booted when LMS starts. You can add a program on your NAS to delay LMS startup. If the Touch is connected to LMS on the NAS then you navigate away from LMS then Touch cannot navigate back to LMS (and you did not turn off your NAS in the mean time) then your NAS has a settings issue or possibly the NAS has other programs running which require use of the same ports as LMS needs. Playlist creation: Simply use your computer to remotely log into the LMS web UI, there you can create playlists by simply adding saving items to your current playlist. will have to look into power settings on NAS. Not sure what you mean by touch navigating away from NAS - do you mean like in switching libraries to USB? NAS does have one other program - Twonky media, this is for streaming to my WDTV live. Curiously when I re-enabled LMS, I noticed that Twonky media was disabled. I re-enabled it (twonky media) whilst the SBT was playing music from the NAS and this was not affected. Will look at the playlists again when back on my home network. Interestingly I read that you can export itunes playlists and that these should work on the SBT. I created a test playlist in itunes, then exported the .xml file to the playlist folder under multimedia in the NAS, but the touch couldn't see it. dood's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56698 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95851 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
