Re: [slim] AAC for ip3k-Players

Ubicom, maker of the ip3023 processor in those devices, is now history.
From what I can find, Qualcomm bought what was left of the company in
2012. I somehow doubt that the SDK for a 12 year old processor still
costs anything like that.

Not a simple task/

I doubt it  will be cheap- if the chip and SDK is still available then
the company will probably still charge large amount as the customers who
want long term support (e.g. military) usually have deep pockets.

You'll then need Logitech to the source open licence for Slim proto and
display stuff but the decoders were third party so you'll need to get
licences for them (e.g. MP3, AAC, WMA etc.) and then there may be some
other proprietary code (left over from Rhapsody or similar) which may
have other conditions attached.

[slim] Using Squeezebox Boom from overseas?

2015-05-30 Thread New Daddy

I've brought my Squeezebox Boom to an Asian country, where I'm now
working.

In order to access US-based internet contents that check the IP, I use
what's called DNS Proxy, which will make the other side believe that
I'm logging on from the states.

It's a hit-or-miss.  Some websites will see me as residing in the US,
while others won't.

Unfortunately, the services that I try to connect to with my Squeezebox
Boom see right through the DNS proxy and tell me that this service is
not available outside the U.S..

Is there anything that I can do?

(If this was a service that I wanted to connect from a web browser, I
can't heighten a notch and use VPN, which almost always succeeds in
fooling the other side about the whereabouts of me.)

Re: [slim] Using Squeezebox Boom from overseas?

I missed a bit your last comment but using a VPN will solve the problem.
Or if you have friends still in the U.S., they can even be your VPN
provider. It works, from experience

Do trial and error with that and different output setting. There are so

Re: [slim] Port 9000 blocked

Just remember that in the simple unsafe way of doing this, you must
portforward 9000 tcp and 3483 udp/tcp in the router .

Forum members doing this regularly are using vpn tunnelling instead .

I've done this the unsafe way on occasion , but I accessed my router
from outside and only turned on this just for the listening session .
And my music server is only a music server it contains no personal data
of any kind .

You can create a SSH tunnel to your home using port 443. Then you
forward local port 9000 and 3483 to your LMS server at home. This is
safe but as said by some others, this is not a good practise to do that
from the office though

Re: [slim] Boom, Duet, SB2, and more for sale (or trade for Touch)

2015-05-30 Thread MeSue

Bump. 

How about $300 plus shipping for everything and I will go ahead and
include a brand new controller battery. 

I also have my old HP MediaSmart EX470 server, which I can get clean
installed with a system drive and will include that for another $100. 

This is would make a great three-room startup system for someone! 

Or make me an offer.

 I have the following players no longer being used...
 
 1 Black Squeezebox 2 (with remote) - the rubberized finish became sticky
 when it was stored but I was able to remove the sticky coating and get
 it nice looking again using rubbing alcohol and mineral oil. I have
 tested it and everything still works fine. Screen is great... no dead
 pixels.
 1 Boom (has remote) - a little scuffed up on bottom, but otherwise good.
 1 Duet (controller and receiver) - great condition, but controller needs
 a new battery to be used out of cradle for more than a few minutes.
 1 official Boom mounting bracket with all hardware and instructions.
 Very rare! :D
 1 extra mounting bracket for Boom built by my hubby (even more rare!). 
 This one has a knob for easy removal if you want to take the Boom off 
 the mount. The Logitech mount requires tools to remove so it's more 
 permanent.
 Everything has original power adapters.
 
 I'd like to either sell *or trade for a Touch* some or all of the above.
 
 Make offer for all or some. They would ship from Florida zip 32134.
 Happy to provide pictures or whatever. PM me if interested.
