[slim] Who is your favorite late night Talk Show host?
I am interested to know who are favorite non syndicated talk show hosts. There are many national syndicated hosts( Hannity,Coast to Coast,etc) but I do not know if there are many local hosts. For example, one of my favorites is Steve Leveille on WBZ Boston.

[slim] Which 1704 DAC
JohnSwenson;583106 Wrote: The DAC 19 uses 1704 DAC chips which are my favorite. They even use a really good IV conversion stage with the 1704s that get the best out of them. The power supply is superbly designed and built. This is extremely close to the DACs I build myself. John S. Based on this, I was looking after an 1704-chip DAC for use with a Touch. Apart from the Audio-GD 19DSP (very nice indeed) and the ref5 (but I don't use balanced), I read about the Lite Dac-83, which gets very positive comments on the net. Any experience / comparison?

[slim] Napster UK closing down
This may be old news, but I have just noticed that following its purchase by Rhapsody Napster will close in the UK, and presumably the rest of Europe in mid March. This appears to be a total shutdown. It looks like we will lose Napster streaming on our Squeezeboxes, Napster libraries and any saved playlists. Not all Napster services will be automatically transferred to Rhapsody, you may have to take out a new subscription to Rhapsody or other streaming service depending on the contract you are on - see here: http://www.napster.co.uk/customerinformation/ The Rhapsody music library is similar and mobile off-line facilities will remain. However it might be worth going to Spotify rather than Rhapsody depending on which suits your needs best. Those of us on the 5for5 deal (five mp3 downloads a month for £5) are going to be terminated. We will lose our 5 mp3s as Rhapsody will not be selling downloads, only offering streaming. What is more our accounts are not going to be automatically transferred, we will have to re-subscribe to a new service - presumably because it will be so different from the old one. That is a real disappointment for me as I have been able to download an album a month for around £1 - £2. Sometimes £0 if the album had fewer than 5 tracks. That effectively meant I was getting my Napster subscription almost for free - as I would have been buying that music in any case. I will have to reconsider which streaming service to go with as an alternative. Any views on how Rhapsody compares to Spotify?

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Music-Playback now on ANDROID! SqueezePlayer released to the market ...
Guernsey Zoo;689185 Wrote: I like how the SqueezePlayer stops playback when it senses that the headphones have been disconnected, would it be possible to automatically start playing again if it senses that headphones have been reconnected? Hi Guernsey Zoo. It might be possible, but right now the App shuts down after 15minutes of doing nothing, so I couldn't observe if the headphones are plugged in (right now). Also I'm not sure, if that would give unwanted sideeffects for most people, when the music just started playing again when you just plug in headphones (because maybe you also do it without being in the car). If you really want to have such a feature then maybe your life can be made easier with Apps like: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.wormskin.headphones (starts an App when headphones are plugged in) https://market.android.com/details?id=com.bigbangllc.carkit (starts an App only when powered + headphones, maybe a better heuristic for 'in the car again') At least you could easily start OrangeSqueeze or SqueezePlayer automatically and your life could be a little bit more convenient. One more suggestion (and now it might get cool): in the server settings of a player (web-interface - settings - player - SqueezePlayer - Audio) one can configure different Power On Resume modes. One of them is Pause at Power Off, Resume at Power On. If used correctly, then SqueezePlayer automatically start the last track played when turned on. So what does used correctly mean :) ? I tried various things: if I stop SqueezePlayer via it's own Power Off button (and then start it again), the music resumes indeed. It also works, if I force quite the Application and then restart it. I does NOT work though, when using the On/Off button in OrangeSqueeze (as this only results in pausing the stream). Does this help us? Maybe: I just read the documentation of the Tasker App and it looks like it can also kill an App. So I'd suggest moving the headphones handling completely into the Tasker App. Headphones inserted: start OrangeSqueeze + SqueezePlayer (music will resume) Headphones removed: kill SqueezePlayer (will make the server resume playing on next start). How does this sound - I guess it's worth a try, isn't it? Here the Android platform really shows it's strength as Apps from different authors can cooperate. Not possible on iOS. I hope this solution can get you pretty close to what you want to achieve. At the additional cost of 4.50#8364; for the Tasker App though. I just realize, that the Tasker App one might even be able to integrate SqueezePlayer+SqueezeCommander (or even the Logitech App) seamlessly already today.

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Orange Squeeze 1.0 for Android Released
One more thing I'd like to add to this wonderful controller The option to play the rest of the album if you select one track. Like, say I want to listen to the second track when it ends I want it to move on to track three. -- Sinkdrain Sinkdrain's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=48051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92330 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Android Controller App
All valid comments. However I guess its personal choice, my personal favorite is still the Logitech Squeezebox controller. In the meantime I am happy to use the web interface from my tab. All in though I think most of the third party apps are good and have there pros and cons. -- mn283 mn283's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38056 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86487 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
