Re: [slim] Are Logitech & Slim Devices Squeezeboxs the same? And a new unit will just work?

2017-07-05 Thread Michael Herger

My Logitech Squeezebox has just died so I want to buy a replacement. I
can see some secondhand Slim Devices version for sale, which look the
same apart from obviously the logo. Are they the same?


Yes.


Will I just be able to plug it in, point it to my network, and it'll
carry on as per my beloved dead unit?

Will it even take on all my display settings I've programmed for my old
one (in Squeeze Server), such as using super date time etc?


No, per-player settings will not be carried over to the new unit. I 
think there's a plugin to do this, though.

Have you considered setting up a Raspberry Pi as a player, rather than
picking up a second hand pre-Logitech squeezebox? Probably a cheaper
option.

Re: [slim] SBT showing wrong time in LMS after power outage

If that doesn't work you might try to reset to the original settings on
the Settings Reboot page. I use piCorePlayer now and had to reinstall it
to the SD card and start from scratch after a power failure.
Unfortunately I suspect you might have to do that to. The cards can get
corrupted during a power failure.

Thanks. I've tried that and all it does is move the time forwards or
backwards by an hour each time depending what zone you choose. The clock
on the SBT is about 6 or 7 minutes ahead, and I can't see any easy way
of fixing that.
