Re: [slim] SB release 7.5.3: Unreliable. Anyone else?
Ive been experimenting. My problems did not start as soon as I upgraded to 7.5.3 but within a day or two, so I havent been able to pin the problems on that. I reverted to 7.5.2 but this did not resolve the issues. I was getting the cant find server and the server log had lots of connection dropped..cant find player..retrying in 300 secs. Just to confuse things, I also discovered a problem with one of my homeplugs. However, removing this did not restore things. So I had a hunch based on a very vague notion. I wondered if the SB3 power supply which was plugged into the same double wall socket as the homeplug (this was a change to my set-up) could be affecting it somehow. Ive run some experiments in which I left the SB3, in different network configurations, playing continuously on repeat through the night and during the day. I then checked the server log to see if there were any reports of dropped connections. Results: PC Ethernet (via homeplug plugged in to socket eight feet from SB3 plug) Router Ethernet SB3 -No dropouts PC Ethernet (via homeplug plugged in to socket eight feet from SB3 plug) Router WiFi SB3 -No dropouts PC Ethernet (via homeplug) Router WiFi SB3 (plugged into ext. lead from homeplug wall socket) -No dropouts PC Ethernet (via homeplug) Router WiFi SB3 (plugged into same wall socket as homeplug) -drop outs within a couple of minutes. In summary, these results seem to support the idea that the proximity of the SB3 power supply to the homeplug was having a negative effect on the network. But whether they are also partly server software version related is not ruled out. -- Phileas Phileas Lounge:(PC)SB3AVI ADM9T Study:(PC)TouchCaiman/BenchmarkSennheiser HD580/Audiolab 8000AMission 70 Bedroom:(PC)Boom Phileas's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20367 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85474 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

I run SBS 7.4.2 repeat: 7-four-2 with the latest firmwares for my SB3s and Boom. All players are wired. Since I upgraded to fw 132 on the SB3 (fw version included in 7.5.3) my SB3 can fail to read files from time to time. Once the player has stop, I can press play again and get the track to play. This behavior is new.

Re: [slim] SB release 7.5.3: Unreliable. Anyone else?
Initially I had no trouble with 7.5.3 with my Duet, wireless network, but as time goes by things have gotten much worse. Initially installed back when it went RTM and thought all was well, this was on W7 x64. Player worked fine. A couple of weeks later I did W7 SP1, had a initial connect problem, did a reset on the player/controller and reconnected and again was happy. Found that occasionally when I rebooted the PC I'd have to again reset player/controller to hook back up to my SBS server. Then about a week ago I upgraded Avast to 6.0.1000 and that's when the grief really started. I did get the controller/player to connect to SBS and initially thought all was well right up until a couple of days ago when I rebooted the PC. Tried and tried to get things to connect and I just couldn't get it to go. I could get the player to connect to the network (blue light), but that wasn't even consistent. Usually the player would hang after a reset at bright yellow. After checking out these forums I saw I wasn't alone in having trouble with 7.5.3 and after reading several posts I decided that I'd go back to 7.5.2. I wish I could say that the fallback was painless, but it wasn't. After installing 7.5.2 I still couldn't get my player to connect, it would still hang on bright yellow. I then tried connecting the player via ethernet. Got a IP from the router (blue light), but still couldn't get it to connect. I then decided I'd take more drastic action, fully uninstalled 7.5.2, deleted remaining SBS directories in both Program Files and Program Data directories and completely removed Avast. At this point I installed 7.5.2, tried a reset on the player/controller and tried to get it configured and connect wirelessly, but this was still a nogo and would hang at blue light on the player. I then connected the player via ethernet and tried again. Bingo! Player connected to my 7.5.2 server and immediately asked to go back to 7.5.1 r9009 which I did. Disconnected ethernet, did reset and was able to get things set up wirelessly. At this point I reinstalled Avast 6.0.1000 rebooted and things all hooked up great (so I thought). Went to play some music which started, but after a second or two the player dropped connection to yellow then green then back to blue, but didn't connect to the SBS. Did a reset and configure on player and got it right back to connected to SBS. Started to play music and it dropped off again just like the first time. I then went to the W7 firewall and now have 3 separate rules. One outbound to allow SBS to do what it wants with any protocol on any port. 2 inbound to let SBS do whatever it wants. 1 inbound that allows TCP on all ports local and remote and another inbound to allow UDP on all ports local and remote. With all these changes I seem to now have my stable platform back! Been running for 2 days with no issues including reboots of PC running SBS and I don't have to mess with anything. With all of this I'd say 7.5.3 has some connectivity issues. Those issues seem to go from not so bad to really bad when 7.5.3 is on W7 SP1 with Avast 6.0.1000. All seems to work just fine running SBS 7.5.2 with W7 SP1 and Avast 6.0.1000. -- w3wilkes w3wilkes's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22973 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85474 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] SB release 7.5.3: Unreliable. Anyone else?
I've posted in another thread about wireless DHCP issues with 7.5.3 and 7.5.4. But I am also seeing the same issues that are being listed here - frequent disconnects, SB3 and Boom rebooting or hanging, regular drop-outs etc. The drop-outs are interesting, as when it starts happening, it occurs every 30 seconds. I'm wondering if the recent firmware updates designed to reduce the network traffic to Mysb.com and make the client units do more work has had unintended consequences. I'm running a Boom and SB3, both over wifi using WPA2. Both devices configured to use static IP addresses. SBS 7.5.4 r31995 UBUNTU 9.10 I'm going to try some router adjustments, such as the channel in use, and the kind of security to see if that helps, but I don't believe that is the issue (why should it be? nothing there has changed). Also, I need to try a completely vanilla install, with no prefs set up, no plugins, and compare that. -- chris.mason chris.mason's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3323 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85474 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] SB release 7.5.3: Unreliable. Anyone else?
I posted most of the following in another thread. I've been having problems since 7.5.3. I've reverted to 7.5.2 and now to 7.5.0 without success. I believe at least one other user was still having problems even after reverting to an earlier version. I've managed to get my SB3 playing music without dropping the connection by ethernet cable. However, it seems that it no longer likes my homeplugs, even though these are working fine for internet access. So something has changed but I can't with absolute certainty pin it on the update. I've tried xlinix. Currently I'm trying using the homeplug in a socket far away from where the SB3 power supply is plugged, in case that is somehow affecting it! It's OK so far but needs a longer test to prove anything (you can see I'm grasping at straws here!) It's so frustrating - I've had no problems like this since buying my first Squeezebox well over two years ago. -- Phileas Phileas Lounge:(PC)SB3AVI ADM9T Study:(PC)TouchCaiman/BenchmarkSennheiser HD580/Audiolab 8000AMission 70 Bedroom:(PC)Boom Phileas's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20367 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85474 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

I'm using a Synology 1010+ NAS (with SSODS4 4.11 to run SB 7.6.0-31915). With 7.5.3 and lower it took 40 min to do a 'clear library and rescan everything' on 20K tracks. The PC (with Ubuntu) I used prior to the NAS had performance. First clear rescan with 7.6 took 8:40 - I didn't believe that was correct so I redid it and the second time was 6:20, that's 6 times faster!

Within hours my system started having various and sundry issues, and I knew I was in trouble when I subsequently saw that many others were in the same boat. I rolled back to 7.5.2 (I think).

My trouble with 7.5.3 is when I sync two players. It works fine for some time and then suddenly the slave stops playing and won't do anything before it has either been resynced or starts on something else. The logfil show that the slave player suddenly thinks that its time is 10 millions years behind the other player and then it just quit. At first I thought it was the WHS-server time that was wrong, but it is not. And it started as soon I upgraded to 7.5.3 so I guess I will downgrade this weekend. -- Kuben72 /Kuben72 2 Duet, 1 Receiver, 1 SB3 and 1 Boom Kuben72's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15308 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85474 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] SB release 7.5.3: Unreliable. Anyone else?
I've had problems with my Transporter and SB3 running via the WHS version. I upgraded and from then on kept getting the message Can't connect to server.Left to go back, right to try again. This message would appear for 30 seconds and then return to the normal display, then 30 seconds later the whole process starts again and again for 5 minutes. This would happen once or twice an hour. I've never had a single problem before, my signal strength for the Transporter is 90% plus and 95% plus for the SB3. Downgraded to 7.5.2 and the problem has gone away. -- Chewie Esoteric DV50/ Transporter/ Squeezebox SB3/ Duet/ Bryston BP25 Pre - 4BST Power Amplifier/ PMC OB1.

Re: [slim] SB release 7.5.3: Unreliable. Anyone else?
Previous versions of the squeezeserver software certainly have had their share of issues but 7.53 is the first ever to crash whilst in use and playing music. It's occurred about 6 or 7 times after my upgrade less than 3 weeks ago. Also I get the failed to connect to server message appearing and music stopping on 4/5 occasions. It then reconnects without user intervention within a minute or so. I only upgraded to 7.53 because the sb3 would go blank when trying to access mysb.com as I prefer to stay with what is working OK. ie older versions. So going back to 7.5.2 doesn't seem an option. Is this the appropriate place to inform logitech of these issues? -- martin_sv regards martin SB3 playing flac and high bitrate MP3's Linn LP12/ ittok / Trak Linn LK1 LK280 Kef reference 103/3 martin_sv's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21607 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85474 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Hmmm. I've now twice installed 7.5.2 over 7.5.3 but SBS still reports that 7.5.3 is installed. :-( MC -- ModelCitizen Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known Last.fm/user/ModelCitizen ModelCitizen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=446 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85474 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] SB release 7.5.3: Unreliable. Anyone else?
Same thing for me. I have a squeezebox touch, mostly used with Squeezecenter running on Windows XP SP3, or with mysqueezebox.com for radio streams when I turn off the computer (or don't want to run squeezecenter). The touch is wired to the router. The first day using 7.5.3 was so awful that I was about to revert to 7.5.2 I was listening to a radio stream, and it stopped every ten minutes or so. Things are better now, but I still have problems. Sometimes, playing still just stops, which is much worse than the rebuffering problems I sometimes had with 7.5.2. At least, after rebuffering, music started again. I use alarm, but I always have also a a real alarm clock to be sure to wake up. Touch'alarm function is definitly not reliable. -- nicolas75 nicolas75's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15823 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85474 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] SB release 7.5.3: Unreliable. Anyone else?
I can only agree with ModelCitizen and I am surprised that it has taken this long for anyone to bring it up. I just assumed it was me and I wrestled with the problems for several days before reverting to 7.5.2. All is much better but my Radio is still saying it's using 7.5.3 (although it still works). Yet another partially tested Slim update is allowed out the door. So sad.
