squeezebox SUCKS BIG TIME

[rosconey]

nope its a straight up pause-says on the remote

it also has a strange shutdown procedure -if you do it wrong the remote goes into search mode and you have to remove the battery to get it to stop-

Make sure you download the latest firmware and software... for the Duet, remote, and slimserver itself.

says its updated -

it did the pause thing the last time i posted about it happening- -i tell you this thing is pure evil-and im not talking the type that jumps motorcycles-

[rosconey]

guess i still havent figured out how to shut it off-this morning it was all screwed up and wouldnt work

so how do you guy turn yours off?

if i use the remote and turn off the squeeze box then turn off my computer it goes into search mode forever-

if i turn off my computer first the dam thing also goes into search mode

any help?

thanx guys

Sorry - can't help you - never turn the SB off and never turn my PC off.  Also, I'm using SB's, not Duets.

Hold the Home button down to shut off the remote.

I think there is a command in the remote menu that shuts off the receiver, iirc

im starting to get it figured out

You'll get it, hang in there. When it works it is a great source, especially with a nice DAC.

just got the live music archive to work-

found some big head tod and the monsters of rock -now jack johnson live from Paris-

its still a quirky tempermental sucker

Try the new beta 7.3, supposed to be a good improvement for wireless networking. Let us know.

[rosconey]

well i just got around to hooking my dac and the squeezereciever to my belkin power conditioner-
it added a bit of focus and db's-had to turn it down a bit-

also bought the hdam module from a ebay vendor to replace the opamps in the dac-not sure what one it is-lol

  duet has been a bitch for the last week- i used my laptop on batteries and forgot to switch back to standard power mode from power saver mode-

now its back to be finicky and not unruly

[richidoo]

Make sure you got that new firmware from SqueezeCenter 7.3.2. That seems to be fixing a lot of problems. Report back if it helps you? Thanks

i did the update a few weeks ago i think-

one thing that happened -the local station -never worked-now it does-just not all the local channels
