There isn't one, I think generally most people consider the

Re: [slim] Transporter Forum??
I suggested a change to the forum layout a while back and the thread got completely ignored. But hey ho, i will have a go again... I think a change is needed but splitting by product will just get confusing. Most users wont have a clue if the issuse they are experiencing is with the controller, squeezebox, squeezecenter or network etc. What i propose is simply add a 'troubleshooting' forum and that would take about 50% of the general discussion forum threads. Could help sales too as pre-purchace customers will often pop into the forums and the general discussion forum is often the first post of call. It can be off putting and give the wrong impression that the product is more problematic than it really is. I realise the beginers forum is there but its obviously not being used correctly and a lot of people with problems are not new users. -- autopilot *Server:* SC7.1b (Windows Vista 64) *Players:* Squeezebox 3 (main room) / Squeezebox Receiver (bedroom) / Softsqueeze (office). *Amps:* Cambridge Audio 640a (main room) / Trends TA10.1 Class-T / Logitech 5.1. *Speakers:* Mission 701's (living room) / Kef Cresta 1's (bedroom) / Logitech 5.1's. *Remotes:* Harmony One (IR) / 1 Beta SB Controller / 1 Official SB Controller.

Transporter Squeezebox Duet (Controller Receiver) Squeezebox Classic (Squeezebox v2 v3) SqueezeCenter Too many forums already. There will be Boom posts in Discuss, there are Transporter posts in Audiophile. Discussions about 7.2 are in Discuss, Beta, Boom... I think there would be merit in a SqueezeBox Receiver forum (or is this mainly covered by SqueezeOS), because I haven't got one and I could then easily ignore all such traffic ;-) It would be better to categorise the current folders into smaller sets though: General/ Beginners Discuss Hardware/ Boom 3rd Party Hardware DIY (redundant - merge with 3rd Party Hardware?)

The Boom forum is working well and the main forum is becoming a bit swamped. I don't like splitting forums too much though and think that things can easily become confused, with the demarcation failing and ending up with threads having to be moved from one forum to another far too often. However, if they were to be split Deans split by product is the correct thing to do. Giving Transporter users and Audiophiles seperate forums would enable sensible Transporter owners to stay sane. Individual Duet and SlimCenter forums would be useful too. Creating one called networking would not work as virtually all the people who write in with networking problems don't realise they have networking problems.

If it's decided to have product-based boards, I would still like to see General, Beginners (like a pre-sales board) and all the supplimentary boards too (Music, Photos, etc). -- simbo *bedroom:* squeezebox 3 = audioengine a2 *study:* squeezebox receiver = marantz pm6002 = grado sr80 *lounge:* softsqueeze = mce 2005 = yamaha dsp-ax620 = mordaunt-short premiere *anywhere:* squeezebox controller simbo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11481 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51848 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Transporter Forum??
Transporter Squeezebox Duet (Controller Receiver) Squeezebox Classic (Squeezebox v2 v3) SqueezeCenter Reactions? I really don't like segregation. If I was going to do a lot of arbitrary splits, I would separate out Receiver from Controller, because ignoring the marketing spin, they are separate and often users have problems with one or the other. But I don't like the idea of the splits. More so, if I was going to make a useful split, I'd put a separate section for networking. A huge percentage of problems that users have with Controllers and Receivers are due to WiFi and firewall issues, in most cases the SD/Logi parts work fine. If we had a Networking Problems forum, we could have some stickies and point folks with networking issues to go there. The fact that the Wiki has all the information is mostly irrelevant, seems folks come to the forum and expect answers in the forum. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
