Re: [slim] How can I tell what format and bit rate Tidal is streaming at?
The suggested logging can be of some interest . When I tried Tidal . I think about >80% off stuff was FLAC . So then you can nag them if your fav album is not yet aviable as flac. Yes the service provides an MP3 file if there is no flac file aviable.

There is also another way to see what Tidal is going to send you if you have your LMS Browser open. Pick the song(s) you wish to listen to or check, placing them in your Que so they show up in the right hand pane. Now move your cursor over the song you wish more information on and out to the far right of the highlighted song you will see the *-Play Icon-*, the *-Delete Icon (X)-*, and the *-M Icon (M)-*. Click on the *-M-* and all the known info on that song/track will now be displayed in the Left Pane. It will show the File Format (MP3, FLAC, etc) where its from (Tidal, Pandora, or drive in your collect), and what the Bit Rate is.

Touches and Radios were fine. So, I changed back to 'Do Not Block' (even though the whitelist was correct, and external Radios were fine with Spotify) and then the Booms and SB3s were ok again. Oddly, once the affected players had successfully played Spotify tracks, re-enabling the 'Block' didn't affect them - they remained working. But, only until a restart of LMS, when they stopped again. Have now left the setting as 'Do Not Block', and set some IPTables rules to achieve the same (probably much better!) security. Hope this helps someone, some time. Cheers. Stephen.

I changed it only because one user was astonishingly technophobic, whilst at the same time entirely addicted to BBC iPlayer on the Squeezebox. Their solution to pretty much every problem in the house was to switch off the router, and leave it for an hour before turning it on again (I kid you not - even if their Humax DVR had crashed!) It was an ADSL connection, so the IP changed regularly. They no longer use Squeezebox, having switched to a Roberts Stream 93i. I really would rather not have to implement a VPN client from the remote user ends, but it might come to that. But, I'll see how things go with the switch to IP whitelisting, and maybe also set up some IPTables entries... Thanks a lot.

Re: [slim] IMPORTANT: Stop forwarding your LMS ports to the internet!
To avoid the complication of VPN, or passwords (the remote users are very technologically challenged), is the IP filtering within LMS considered 'acceptable'? The remote users are all on semi-static IPs TBH: I don't know what IP address your LMS would see in this case. Give it a try and let us know. But then I'd really not expose LMS to the internet. I just wouldn't. -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] IMPORTANT: Stop forwarding your LMS ports to the internet!
I've been running LMS, open to the Internet, for years. Never had an issue (of which I'm aware, anyway). Until a few weeks ago. Bizarre alarms in the middle of the night, across a few different players. Then, 1am yesterday, multiple players firing up at full volume. A couple of these aren't local, and the users were far from impressed. To avoid the complication of VPN, or passwords (the remote users are very technologically challenged), is the IP filtering within LMS considered 'acceptable'? The remote users are all on semi-static IPs (Virgin Media - IP addresses seem to persist for years, even through router reboots): 22714 Thanks a lot.
