[slim] Please help me get internet access back on XP !

2013-12-24 Thread swayzak

Hi

I have Win XP SP3 on Asus P5K-E/WIFI-AP m/board with Intel E8400  4 GB
DDR 800.

Yesterday I used Windows Update (as usual) to download latest updates -
both critical  optional).

Since then I can get no internet whatsoever ! All browsers just give
non-connected screens.

The WiFi network icon appears to show full connection (including
internet), but there is no real internet connection.

Ethernet is normally disabled on this machine ( I note that one of the
hardware updates was an Ethernet driver).

I've tried repairing the connection but this doesn't help.

Any ideas ?


Thanks

Re: [slim] Setting up my system (2 x Touch Mac Mini)

2013-12-24 Thread Beech

It sounds as if you are using Music Folder, which is probably the slowest of 
browse methods, especially for someone with a lot of objects in the folder. So 
if you don't have the B folder further divided into sub-folders such as Jeff 
Beck, Beatles, etc. then you are really shooting yourself in the foot. Even 
if you have sub-folders for each artist in B, some of those 26 alphabetic 
folders are likely to have 200+ sub-folders.

All of the other browse methods rely on the database that LMS builds, so 
browsing is both faster and more flexible. Maybe you're already using those and 
it's still too slow, but that isn't clear from your post. If you are using 
those methods and it's still too slow, then the issue could be an underpowered 
server, network latency, or something else.

EDIT: You're confusing LMS and mysqueezebox.com (aka mysb.com for those of us 
too lazy to type the full name in forum posts), as well as confusing what each 
of them does. You definitely need LMS to play your local music. And no, 
mysb.com does keep a log of your music so that you can play it from remote 
locations. Rather, mysb.com gives you access to internet radio and online 
services such as Pandora, Deezer, Spotify, MOG, Rhapsody, Slacker, etc 
(depending on what country you live in) so that you can listen to music when 
your computer running LMS is switched off.[/QUOTE wrote:

If your files are properly tagged and organized with LMS running on a
decently powered computer your Search results should be very snappy.
LMS is running on your Mac Mini, correct?  4 TB drive connected to same
Mac Mini?  Anything besides music files on this drive?  
Mac running any other program/process besides LMS? Mac Mini is wired to
router?

First thing I'd try would be a System Restore to a Restore point
before the updates were installed.

Unfortunately SR is disabled on this particular PC (it's my music studio
PC).

Maybe I should try uninstalling those updates ?

I have an imaged partition which I can revert back to - but this would
be the last resort as it's quite old  would require numerous software
updates / installations to bring up-to-date.

Yes, tried repair (see original post). No joy. Also router reboot. One
other thing I could try is whether wired ethernet connection works I
suppose..

What causes connection to appear fine, but no internet ??

I have a bad feeling that this is going to be a sod to sort out..  :(

Yes, try wired connection first to make sure it's not the router. Do you
have other devices that work fine through the router?
Other things to try:
- reboot into safe mode and see whether wifi works there
- try to download and install a wifi driver from your manufacturer.

Yes everything else works fine.

Definitely specific to this PC or it's interaction with router..

Possibly gateway ip address has not been set up.

Run ipconfig in a command prompt window and look at interface subnet
mask and gateway address and see if they are sensible. 

If unsure how to read it  - copy the output to a file (e.g. ipconfig

Re: [slim] Setting up my system (2 x Touch Mac Mini)

2013-12-24 Thread Mnyb

Do the aiff files have any tags ? that would enable LMS to built a
proper dB when scanning and the much faster artist / album / genre menus
would start working properly .
But they rely on proper metadata in the files themself .
and search to uses the dB it probably eventually go for file names when
nothing else match ? Or does it even work at all ?

 I've tried to convince some technically semi-literate friends that if

 that array unrecoverable. In most cases it will be user error. I also
 try to convince them of the need for backups, but some see that RAID

 Constantly mirroring is both senseless and dangerous. If you consider
 this to be a 'backup', then it completely defeats the purpose of having
 a backup. If you accidentally delete something, or the files are
 inadvertently changed or corrupted or, then the deletions, unintended
 changes and corruptions are then mirrored to the second system. If
 you're using mirroring for backup, you should only do backups manually
 and you should do something to assure yourself that the original library
 is healthy before performing a backup. For a music library, you can get
 a file count to guard against deletions, and if the files are encoded in
 FLAC, you can run a test across the library to be sure files are not
 corrupted. You can also often run mirroring software with a test switch
 to first see how many files will be copied.

In this case constant mirroring provides instant fallback operation
should 2 drives in one enclosure fail. I couldn't possibly consider that
either senseless or dangerous. Perhaps I did not make it clear that this
is TWO NAS enclosures and that the mirroring provides a CONSTANT
backup.

Unlike most Linux-based home-office NAS the Synology also support
Recycle Bin on a folder by folder basis and there is also a setting that
can restrict Recycle Bin access to administrators only.

Re: [slim] Logitech Media Server 7.7.3 released

2013-12-24 Thread w3wilkes

Yes it's true that the code for Net::UDAP is beta at best. That being
said I had a problem once with one of my Duet receivers where using the
controller I was unable to connect to the server regardless of what I
tried. I then used Net::UDAP to configure my LMS server IP into the
receiver and fixed the problem. I will always keep a copy and use it as
a last resort. There is a Windows compiled version that doesn't require
a separate Pearl install that is nice for those of us that have a
Windows machine to use. It can be found here;

Thanks, I've saved a copy of that compiled Net::UDAP.

 is TWO NAS enclosures and that the mirroring provides a CONSTANT backup.

Yes, that's clear and exactly why it's so dangerous. Yes, a constant
backup is the only way to ensure that you don't lose a day or a week or
a month's updates, but I consider that to be a very small amount of work
to duplicate considering the potential danger. You can always backup
more often if you consider it too risky. You're essentially implementing
another level of RAID, protecting against an increasingly unlikely
catastrophic event, rather than a backup solution.

I haven't tried this yet, but I grabbed a copy. It's a beta Android .apk
that has a GUI for Net::UDAP called SqueezeConfig that was created by
Flatterman who created SqueezeCommander.

One interesting note is I've seen a thread that says this even works if
you have a Androidx86 install running in a VM.
