Re: [slim] Controller doesn't reconnect to network after sleep - Please post your issues
I have been frustrated by these symptoms and I am glad that I found this thread. I have an incident open [Incident: 080916-002230] I initially tried the receiver and remote connected wireless to my main network via a Linksys WAP54G Wireless Access Point (Firmware 3.0.5) Australian Wireless Chan 11. The DHCP is handled by a Windows 2000 server with reservations set for both Receiver and Controller. I had just picked up a Dell Poweredge 2650 server for work so I installed Windows 2003 server, joined it to my AD domain and ran SqueezeCenter on that. In an attempt to increase reliability I ran a CAT5 to the Receiver from a Netgear 24 port switch. No much changed. Installed The SqueezeCentre App on a Windows XP workstation. No much changed, still unreliable controller connections. My Network's Gateway/Router is a Billion VGOM with Wireless (at the other end of the house from the Linksys WAP) I tried moving the Controller's connection to that connection (Australian Wireless Chan 1) but no real change. After creating the ticket with support and getting the typical instructions on how to reset the Duet system, I moved the the Squeezebox off of the main network completely and connected it to a small network that I use for some hosting and VoIP stuff. This consists of a Linksys WRT54GL running dd-wrt v24-sp1. With the exception of listening to internet radio stations, Frankly its worse! The remote still falls of the network giving me either Blue WiFi icon or after waking up gives the endless life-ring of death 'Connecting to Squeezebox' but now with the added frustration of songs stopping part-way through. I have submitted a log from squeezecentre (on the Poweredge) as a part of the incident ticket. It has some networking issues. Looking at this thread I am sure that with some effort it could be easily reproduced. If people are reporting that the problem might be worse with version 7.2. Where can we access older version? Like others have stated, all wireless networking in my environment with the exception of this latest addition, is very reliable. I don't believe updating firmware on routers is the right tree to bark up.

Re: [slim] CUE files not being picked up stored in playlists
ds2021;346090 Wrote: You can browse to the file using the Music Folder option in Music Library. You may then select the file, play the file, or add the file to a playlist. This is actually how I'm working around the problem currently, thanks anyway (sincerely appreciate your explanations). Unfortunately this method is painful for 2 reasons - one because the files have long names that are often awkward to differentiate, and secondly because it's not instantly apparent which file is the CUE and which is the MP3 (the provided filenames bodies are identical) - so it's necessary to examine the characteristics of each file to determine which is the CUE and which is the MP3. However I'm convinced there's got to be a simpler way than this. A year ago when battling with this (on a previous server installation) I read somewhere that physically putting the CUE files themselves in the 'Playlists Folder' was an option, the downside being that each CUE file needed editing by amending the path to the audio file, since the CUE was now split up from its MP3 file pairing, ie. in a different folder location (and volume). I may be mistaken but... subsequent to me experimenting with that workaround, I noticed that, bizarrely, new additions were appearing in Playlists without me doing this CUE jiggery for those new files, but this was happening inconsistently! -- RichardP RichardP's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12324 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53305 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Squeezebox with HDD?
ajkidle;345897 Wrote: Any chance that future version of the Squeezebox products would include a hard drive, similar to a DVR? My thinking is that this could be beneficial in a few ways: 1 - No computer required to run SqueezeCenter, just run it directly on the device. 2 - Could support services like Rhapsody-To-Go. This would be super cool for the Boom: the ability to unlock it from the constraints of being on a network and take your music with you. 3 - Store your music collection directly on the device. Instead of having to stream your local music from another computer on the network (which has to be powered on,) the SB could serve as the host. I'm sure I'm not the first to have this idea, but a quick search of the forums didn't turn anything up so I thought I'd throw it out there. Actual implementation could go a variety of ways: an HDD could be an option so as to keep the base price low, or maybe the deivce could just have a SATA or USB connection for people to add their own storage later if they want. Great products, by the way. Andy I had the idea of cramming a SBR in the 5.25 slot of a Shuttle PC. It would be small (relatively) portable (again, relatively) and could pull the music right off of the hard drive (basically). You could put two NIC cards in it and still network it for Internet connectivity. Of course I took a sound whipping about the feasability. I still may give it a try someday.

Re: [slim] Duet with Two Boxes, won't sync properly..?
Are you playing local music, and if so what file type, or internet radio? My only guess would be a wireless reception issue. Is there any way you can move them around or try wired ethernet to both players? In the Status pane from the web interface it lists wireless strength for both players, so if there's a big difference it may be your issue. You could also try checking Player Settings for any differences e.g. bitrate limiting. Sorry I can't be of more help.

You don't say what version of Squeezecenter you are running but assuming it is fairly recent: In the web interface, navigate to favourites and click the little X next to each favourite you want to delete. To remove songs from your library, you need to remove the files physically from the location of your music library and do a full clear and rescan in Squeezecenter so that SC builds the database without them. You can't delete files directly from within Squeezecenter. -- Siduhe Who am I on 'LAST.FM' (http://www.last.fm/user/siduhe)? -Siduhe Loved Tracks radio got the thumbs up.

Re: [slim] MusicIP - definitive install instructions for 7.1/7.2 (inc. headless)?
The issue boils down to the play this file command to SC which goes ok.. and then doesnt stack it. The MIP request works fine. I already use a lot of CLI commands just a shame the documentation for SC is so poor and pretty impenetrable to the novice perl gardener.. maybe one day it will have a stronger API and proper support from SC devs for plugin devs who add bells and polish the fragile shell that is SC.

Re: [slim] Duet with Two Boxes, won't sync properly..?
Proper sync is not something that you should need to configure to have work properly. My experience is that it simply works. So I am not not sure that it is something that you are failing to do. Having said that there are sync settings in Settings Player Sync that you can try adjusting. It sounds like the Kitchen player is the issue, and not the lounge. I assume that it is configured wirelessly. If so, there could be a connectivity issue in that location. As a test, you could try placing the kitchen player elsewhere in the house, perhaps close to the lounge player. If you see an improvement in synced performance as a result, it is likely a location-specific issue. If so, there are a number of things that can account for this; one I used to encounter in my kitchen was interference from a neighbour's wifi network. Try changing wireless channel. That could help with interference. Changing routers worked for me in a similar scenario, having gone to N. Use of a homeplug can also help resolve issues related to interference. -- ds2021 All your bass are belong to us. ds2021's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10078 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53331 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] FLAC format for videos?
Ok, so basically your looking for a network media tank, check 'this forum' (http://www.avforums.com/forums/streamers-network-media-players/) out. the top nmt at the moment seem to be the popcorn hour as mentioned A100 has just upgraded to the A110, the eg-m31B which I'm thinking of getting, and the HDX 1000 they all connect to a nas, your computer or an internal SATA to read and play pretty much any video format. The don't sell much in the UK but can be got from digitalera.com but in the us or uk can be brought from their respective companies. They all run the same software the only difference is the hardware, popcorn hour is the most popular as it is made by the company that make the firmware hence seems to benefit most, but the others have other benefits, ie the eg-m31b has an eSATA slave connector, it all depends what you need. There are a load out there made by tvix, not a clure about them personally as they are more pricey, don't know if they are worth the extra.

Re: [slim] SC Not scanning all music - see ErrorLog please
This isn't the usual AV problem (which results in an error about not being able to write to a file). In this case, the message is implying that MySQL is crashing during a transaction. Is this consistent and reproducable? Could be you're triggering some weird MySQL bug. What OS are you on, and are you using anything like a custom MySQL installation? It won't be anything to do with firewalls/networking or anything like that. -- radish radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53354 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Since the Controller is a computer, maybe it has the same issues as laptops as to what 0% and 100% of battery really stand for.

[slim] Wallwart adapter (calling any Aussies/NZers in UK)
Hi, I purchased my Squeezeboxes (v3) in the UK and have used them quite extnsivley thank you very much. I have however now moved to NZ and have to subject myself to using a UK NZ plug adapter which is really quite annoying (not sure if I have the ears to tell the differnce in sound quality). have contacted Logieech support APAC and they don't stock the Oz/NZ power adapters as spares, so i'm wondering whether anyone on here is suffering the same issue in reverse and wants to somehow swap. Thi has also made me wonder what happens if my power supply dies, do I have to order a completely new Squeezebox?

Thanks Nonreality, truth be told, all I'm after is something like vPod that is able to add/ delete mp3 to my iPod(s) without having to interact with that malware. flac2mp3 and/or dbpoweramp converter do all that's necessary iro creating MP3 from my FLAC library. A while ago I made the mistake of upgrading the iPod's firmware not realising that it would mean I was then tied to the malware. I'll have to do a little digging for an older firmware or check what tools are available in Linux to do iPod synchronisation. -- egd Internet forums: conclusive proof depth of gene pool is indeed variable, monkeys can be taught to cut code, and world peace is utterly unrealistic...

Re: [slim] iTunes alternatives
I agree that MM is a good music managerhave been using it for a couple of years. HOWEVER, the real question is whether it/they can get it to work with v 2 firmware on my iTouch. I was lucky enough to read that you can't update the firmware and continue to use MM. I sense between the lines that it can't be cracked. The issues are way beyond my technical understanding. What do people think? I have enjoyed the iTouch, but WILL NOT use iTunes. Hate it, and will sell the iTouch before resorting to iTunes. -- utowana utowana's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4204 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53338 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Does the Duet remote support roaming between Wireless Access Points?
Me too ! I think Controller is OK in an apartment or small house works flawless for me. I'm never more than 10 meters away from the AP not to many concrete walls with rebars, In a big house one could see problems comming even at the dev state ? so why not thought of as an initial design goal :-) Scenario: big house with multiple SBR's this will not work without roaming ? An added bonus would be if roaming could be extended to SBR's in adhoc mode, so your ethernet conected SBR's could act as base stations for the SBC. I don't now if this is possible at all. What probable saves the day is that the controller does only need a fraction of the bitrates that the players wants, this is going to change when streaming audio is supported directly on the controller ? -- Mnyb Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53361 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Does the Duet remote support roaming between Wireless Access Points?
I agree it would be nice to support roaming. My house isn't huge (3000sqft/280sqm) but I had wireless problems in one room (the furthest away from the WAP) so I added an upstairs WAP to provide better coverage. To be fair, the SBC actually worked better than anything else (e.g. laptops) in that room. I'm lucky enough to have enough SBCs that I don't need to move them between rooms much so it's OK that they're assigned to a specific WAP. -- radish radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53361 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
