Re: [slim] What can I do now? Squeezebox classic died
Yes. I bought it directly from Logitech. I've since purchased another Classic and a Boom, so I'm not without music. I just wanted to get this one working again as the line has been discontinued. If my other Classic dies, I'm not sure what I'll hook up to my stereo amplifier. I found lots of references to the schematic but couldn't locate it. I did find a statement from Logitech saying they don't release that sort of document to the public. I'll look for a hifi shop.

I bought this SB new in the summer of 2007, so it's seen some use, but never been opened before. Below is a photo of the other side of the card. The blue capacitor (is that the word?) is soldered to the white spot on the other side and the board with input/output ports, etc. is soldered to the line of points with the smear. If it needs to be serviced, do you have any idea where I can send it? Thanks again for your help. It's not only the capacitor that was serviced, that row of solder points below it look like they were hit with a soldering iron too. That whitish residue could be from a spray used to clean residual flux from the circuit board after soldering. I wonder if there was an engineering change that changed that cap and they went back into some inventory and made the change? ...something like that probably would have made it into the forums though... Do you have any experience using a soldering iron on a circuit board? If so, it would be worth hitting the solder joints on the capacitor with a soldering iron to freshen up the solder joint. If that doesn't help, it would be worth hitting the row of solder joints below the cap. maggior's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97577 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] What can I do now? Squeezebox classic died
Thanks maggior. I don't have any experience with a solder iron but I'll find someone who does when Tet is over. (I'm in Vietnam.) I appreciate the suggestion. bpa, I tried the Xilinx and the hard (+) reset with no result.

[slim] Squeezebox replacement candidate Simple Audio taken over by Corsair
Corsair is a large player in the PC market - SSD memory, USB drives power supplies, gaming peripherals, cooling and computer cases. Today Corsair announced having bought lossmaking Roomplayer manufacturer, Simple Audio. Corsair has a well built up distribution channels in the PC-enthusiast segment which I find bodes well.

I have no experience of corporate networks so who knows whats else is going on. TRhe usual ports are open both at the server and the machine running squeezeplay 3483 tcp/udp 9000 tcp and the network must allow udp broadcasts . I'm familiar with remote libraries in SqueezePlay but the only question it asks is language and then it tries to connect. It sees the server vb22 but will not connect. Obviously connecting to mysb.com is out of the question because it never asked for credentials. I have enabled all ports for tcp/ip and udp to be opened to squeezeplayer.exe. banned for life's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56269 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97980 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] ANN: Orange Squeeze 1.3.0 released!
Hey. Just bought the app and loving it so far. However i noticed one thing. I am using the DenonSerial addon on my Squeezebox to control the volume on my Denon Amp. This works like a charm with the volume buttons in the standard version, however in the preview version the volume is listed as locked and cannot be changed. Lastly i see a few posts about optimizing screen realestate for tablets. Any plans on that? Most look fine on a tablet, however when browsing the library a lot of the screen is wasted. Listing albums as coverart with multiple albums on a line instead of as a list with the album name to the right would improve the look a lot. mbw2001's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56794 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97467 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
