What stations won't work?  Where are you selecting the stations (from
your Favorites)?  Is your player connected to LMS or MySB.com?

Re: [slim] Listening squeezebox music in the living room without any squeezebox hardware!

Interesting to see that Sonos considers AirPlay as a possible element of
their ecosystem:

Yes, but have you seen how they do this? The AirPlay device (Airport
Express) gets plugged into the analog in of a Sonos device and that's
how that works. You have no integration whatsoever but you need to start
playing AirPlay from one App and control all that from another App
(Sonos).
It's a hack, not more.

Yes I was a bit disappointed when I saw the details. At least their
marketing aknowledge the need and maybe it is a first step to something
better.

They did this already three years ago when AirPlay was still called
AirTunes. So: unlikely

[slim] Napster Not Playing

2013-05-09 Thread allgonepetetong

Hi All

I wonder of someone could help please.

I have recently installed the Napster app and opened and account.  When
I select a track to play in Napster, my squeeze box screen displays the
song that I have selected and the time bar shows it is playing, however
no sound is being played.

This problem is apparent on both my Duet and Boom when controlled either
by the Duet handset, the Boom directly, or via the android app on my
connected phone.

please help

thanks

Barry

 Switching supplies can make life hard.  Assuming a reasonably modern
 switcher the basic switching rate would probably be somewhere around
 100kHz-200kHz, with harmonics extending into a few MHz assuming it is
 switching with fast edges to improve efficiency.  The basic switching
 rate would probably fall into the right range that if it modulates the
 clock, the lower modulation sidebands will fall in the middle of the
 audio band.  The DAC probably has 0dB PSRR at those frequencies, so any
 of the noise that is not completely filtered from the DAC power supply
 causes AM of the output, potentially PM on the output if the power
 supply noise modulates the clock input switching threshold, and
 potentially direct PM of the oscillator if the noise gets on the
 oscillator power supply.  Just painful all around.  Would be interesting
 to figure out how much filtering would be required to get any power
 supply noise effects reduced to inaudible.  What kind of noise amplitude
 and spectrum is on the output of that supply?

Actually the regulators I'm using have 60db PSRR out to over 3MHz. The
clocks and DAC chip have separate regulators. I haven't done a full
analysis of the power at different points (haven't had the time!) I
should do that soon.

 AirPlay only supports up to 48/24 but up to that it's bitperfect, it's
 sent as an ALAC stream.
 Actually even if you use the volume control in iPeng; the volume
 information is sent separately from the audio information, the volume
 control is not being done by applying a gain to the digital data like in
 the Squeezebox (the Receiver on the other end of the AirPlay connection
 might still do that but iPeng and AirPlay itself keep their hands off
 the data; at least unless you apply an equalizer) so you can design an
 AirPlay device that actually does analog volume control.

Sorry to bring up an old quote, but just interested where the
transcoding to 16/44.1 ALAC takes place (if for instance, I play a FLAC
file from the SB server). I assume it is on the server, but it's not
done by the Apple device is it? :eek:

 Ratings? Why Ratings? Yours? I only have a couple of thousand CD's but I

My ratings. This is the most simple way of telling LMS which tracks I
like. Track ratings allow using dynamic playlists to play my favourite
music.
When rating are displayed, I know which tracks I already rated (or not)
and I can remember better which tracks I like without having to
prelisten them when selecting to play them manually. Maybe my brains are
not as perfect as yours, but I don't always remember the titles of my
thousands of tracks I like(d)...

For those with perfect brains and those not using ratings I suggested to
have track ratings displayed optionally.
