Eight non-ignores so far, eh? Well I had better stay ahead of the pack. This makes it nine. (And let the record show that I was the first not to ignore this thread.) -- Labarum Brian Squeezebox 3 Classic and Virgin Cable Box Beresford DAC TC-7510 MK6/4 - Quad 405-2 refurbished by 405man

[slim] Gross Failure - Barcode in display

after a hard reset, but what is going on? Gross hardware failure? No. Not hardware failure. I have managed a hard reset (powerdown, powerup). Everything now seems to be working except alien BBC. Ideas please. -- Labarum Brian Squeezebox 3 Classic and Virgin Cable Box Beresford DAC TC-7510 MK6

Re: [slim] New Logitech MM STREAM Squeezebox Touch spotted !!

have not thought it through. I suppose it might be of use in a kitchen - screwed to a wall with installed wall speakers. But we have the Boom: a Boom Touch might have been the better product. I suppose we should wait for the formal release when the specifications will be available. -- Labarum

Re: [slim] DSBridge - A simpler way to stream Spotify

I must try it. Spotify Premium for a subscription of £10 per month will allow streaming at 320Kb/s OGG That could be extremely good. Will Premium be accessible via SB? http://www.techradar.com/news/internet/spotify-offering-cd-quality-streaming-609758 -- Labarum Brian Squeezebox 3
