Although I also has Java 1.6.0 installed on the machine, but it's 1.5.0_11 that is active and that 's also the version that is shown within the SoftSqueeze preferences window.
To make sure we are seeing the same problem, this is what happens in my setup: 1. I can successfully start SoftSqueeze and start playing something 2. If I now use the Fwd button to skip to next song, SoftSqueeze totally hangs. The progress timer stops and SoftSqueeze no longer receives any remote commands. 3. Restart of SlimServer doesn't help, when SlimServer is restarted SoftSqueeze doesn't connect, it is still hanged. 4. Restart of SoftSqueeze solves the problem and the next songs start to play again. The problem is repeatable with both FLAC and MP3 songs on the current machine. I'm pretty sure my previous installation on another computer only had the problem with FLAC songs, while MP3 worked correctly. The exact same songs works perfectly with a standard SqueezeBox with the same SlimServer installation and computer. SoftSqueeze doesn't seem to hang if I play the song to the end and SlimServer itself switches to the next song, then it successfully switch song and starts playing next song without any hang. The hang problem also occurs if I switch song when a song is playing some other way, for example start to play another artist or album from the browse menu. I've also seen situations where SoftSqueeze is hanged with a blank screen, but I'm not completely sure when this happens. I've installed slimserver with the tar.gz package and used the build-perl-modules.pl script to build the necessary perl modules. On Windows on the same machine (dual booted) everything works perfect, so the problem seems to be related to Linux. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and RandomPlayList plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37413 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
