[slim] New versions of Squeezecenter don't like large collections-?

to be really clunky - the type is too small, and if you try to zoom in, it actually changes the layout of Squeezecenter in a way that renders it unuseable (removes the options that were there before zooming, etc.). Chris -- benthos

of hardware resources (CPU, etc.)? I'm headed back to 7.2.1. Today I encountered the overbuffering issue, as well a continuing problem with 7.3.3's inability to refresh the playlist. I'm sick of it. Might as well stick with what works and stop wasting time. Chris -- benthos

Re: [slim] Rebuffering is ruining the Squeezebox experience

if that helps. If the rebuffering continues, I'll be reinstalling 7.2.1 once again. I'd be interested to know what changed about the Squeezecenter software after 7.2.1 to make rebuffering such a problem for so many people. Chris -- benthos

Re: [slim] The 'Duet' is here

? If so, I'm not sure why anyone would pay twice as much for the Duet controller, especially if the Harmony remote can control other devices. Chris -- benthos benthos's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php

Re: [slim] The 'Duet' is here

that the Harmony won't display album art, it seems equipped for that sort of thing. Btw, I'm using the Beta Squeezecenter with my SB3, and I think it's a vast improvement over the old Slimserver. I like how much faster it is; I imagine it will work quite well with the Duet's controller. Chris -- benthos

[slim] Defaulting to the clock when SlimServer shuts down

if the SB3 just somehow defaulted to clock mode of its own volition. I take it that it has to get the time from either the SlimServer or Squeezenetwork, and that it can't just store the time on its own, correct? Chris (who is enjoying the new Pandora option) -- benthos
