Well I've successfully managed to hack the prefs file to get things consistent with my other two servers. That was "fun".
Album art seems a real problem, I cannot get internal art to work at all. I tried reducing the size from the original 1450x1450 supplied with the file to 500x500 - no go. I removed those and replaced with 500x500 (about 40KB) - still no go,. I added a 200x200 "Folder,jpg" file - still no go! Only when I deleted the internal art from each track did I finally see any art (from my "Folder.jpg"). However, as there are obviously some major changes there in 7.6, it doesn't make any sense to debug that further until we try with that version. Getting compilations/album artist stuff consistent with my SBS via the prefs file worked well, but it's clearly not a "user task"! There HAS to be a better way. What is the problem with opening more options to the touch UI? Is it a matter of trying to limit the size of the code on Touch? At the very least it really should be possible to "sync" settings with a persons other SBS's. I have 2 "fat" servers and a "Tiny", even getting the "fats" in sync is a bit of a pain, before you get into SSH! How's this for an idea? Why not have a default set of preferences which you set up on mysqueezebox.com. Then, by default, each SBS/TinySC gets its prefs from there (at least the non-hardware-specific bits). People can change the default on each "fat" SC if they wish (not "Tiny", if you wish)but I bet 90% will not. A large proportion of new Squeezebox customers will have at least 2 servers - TinySC on a Touch and a full blown SBS. This would make the "out of the box" experience a whole lot better as both servers would automatically display things in the same way, instead of almost certainly differently, as at present! Is there somewhere else I should raise this? -- Davidg1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Davidg1's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35004 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85708 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
