Re: [slim] Brain Fart - iTunes install on the NAS Duo or PC
Just because the iTunes music files or program files are on your share on the NAS, it doesn't mean iTunes is _installed_ on your NAS. If you are running iTunes on your laptop then it is installed on your laptop. If you are running the program files from the NAS share, that is probably not a good idea.

[slim] album artwork, tagging etc
Hi: I am running squeezebox server on a Mac G5. All my music sits on an external hard drive and is 95% flac format files that have been converted from CD. Some were converted using dbpoweramp and some using another software (cant remember the name, it was shareware). The files that were done with dbpoweramp mostly seem to have artwork, others don't. A few CD's seem to have gone into a folder of their own that have the flac's and a jpg with artwork. not sure how this happened. Can someone recommend a mac compatible software that can tag artwork and organize files? When i look at the main directory it is just a bunch of flac files, not organized by artist or album. However it seems to come into squeezebox fine, without artwork.

Considering that they have managed to get rid of most people that had
knowledge in the product I'm extremely skeptical if anyone would be
willing to acquire the product line, feels like they either have to
start investing in it themselves or continue to let it die slowly.
It would surprise me if Logitech released a high end model, but it
wouldn't surprise me if they released some new model in similar or
lower price range than the Radio.

There are some new hardware announced now and then from other vendors,
but there are a lot of Squeezebox users and I believe most are quite
happy with the devices, so except for Airplay devices and Sonos I don't
really see any other strong competitor.

It would probably be possible to develop a third party Rhapsody plugin
if necessary, it's just that it doesn't make much sense to do it as
long as Logitech keeps providing it. However, if Logitech would
shutdown mysqueezebox.com, it wouldn't surprise me if some third party

I suspect that:
- Most people that use mysqueezebox.com is probably expecting it to be
available for free as that's what they have got from Logitech.
- Most people that would be willing to pay for it are probably running
a local SBS/LMS and don't want to rely on a central server.

Everything is possible but to me it feels like this can be pretty
unreliable or very complex.
However, it's important to realize that as far as I know there are no
indication what so ever that Logitech is about to shutdown
mysqueezebox.com, so let's start to worry about this when there is
actually some indications that it's about to happen.

Re: [slim] anything new from CES
This is sad that we all seem to be giving up on them. I don't think AirPlay is a true alternative--one major limitation is that you cannot easily have zones if you're using iTunes as your library. iTunes can only play one song at a time. To me the beauty of the Squeezebox system was that it was multi-zone, relatively open (see the large number of plugins developed) and the HW was good quality. As for hardware, I'm looking for a headless player, one that can sit in my A/V cabinet. It would be good to see Logitech also develop another high-end player, but horses might fly. -- Juggler Juggler's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4935 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92973 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

This I had to enter on the Duet as the ASCII code, which in practice meant that I added the number 3 in front of each digit, i.e. 31323334353637 (because the character 2 is 32 ASCII).

Just to rule out the obvious, you are still using a wired (ethernet) connection between the server and the new router, right? The router manual makes no mention of WOL, but I agree it sounds as if it is failing to relay the WOL packet to the server. Have you tried doing WOL using one of the many utilities available? I expect it won't work either, but it's worth checking just to rule out the possibility that there's some new problem with the SB that happens to coincide with the new router's arrival.

I have 2 x Squeezebox Radios, an Android mobile phone and an Archos tablet, all now playing the same playlist that I just created via my tablet.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Orange Squeeze 1.0 for Android Released
Since I like to support the community, I bought your app and installed it on a Nook Color running CM7.1 General feedback is that it's quite usable. I really like how you've made it clear which tab you're on and where you'll be by swiping left and right. Wasn't sure if I wanted a 'rollover' mode like ipeng, but after some use I think it's clearer with just 3 tabs. I feel like some of the UI elements could be resized for devices with more screen real estate than a phone like 7 and larger tablets. Also, a request -- make it SUPER EASY to jump right to favorites. I have a pretty large favorites list split into directories and most of my use of LMS and squeezeboxes involves navigating my favorites menu.
