My internet is fine. I can see joggler on network but no idea why it doesn't connect to mysqueezebox.com. Any ideas?
Yup, mysqueezebox.com is finicky and the system in SqueezePlay to connect to it appears to be just as bad. If anything, I'll remove the option to add it in the future, but I'll not be spending much time on it.

Also, "Type:" for this joggler on mysqueezebox.com shows as "Squeezebox Controller", where my other joggler with buzz distro is shown as "Squeezeplay, Squeezebox Controller". Does it make any difference?
That is not a big problem, just would like to know what is going on with this
Yes, it's because our version of SqueezePlay is trying to be a good citizen and is identifying itself properly. However, because related services don't really know what to do with the information, I'm beginning to reconsider this. It's the second service that has reported problems.
If you wish to remove this yourself:
Code: Select all
rm -rf /opt/squeezeplay/share/jive/applets/JogglerUpdateModel
Then:
Then reboot. Your settings will go back to defaults, but it will just report itself as SqueezePlay again.

If I will remove USB WiFi from my joggler (I want to have USB memory inside) then wired connection doesn't work even if I will setup static IP address in /etc/network/interfaces. It just shows "no network address has been assigned to the eth0" where I have actually set static IP. Any ideas?
It's likely because you've pulled the network card from which the system generates it's MAC address. If you remove the wireless card, reset the network settings from Settings > Network. Reboot and let the Joggler pick up a DHCP address, then SSH in and set your static address on the command line.

Hi y'all. Took my joggler with v3 installed on an hdd to test (show off) to a mate on his hifi. Was disappointed to find i couldn't use it without registering it on his local network. Is this normal or have I missed a trick? We wanted to use it at a village hall as a source of background Christmas music for an event last weekend. Regards
Ps. My mate was impressed so now I have to source another joggler - sigh

I've never used a Joggler off-network for this, though I think other people have. So long as you have LMS installed, it should be possible to get this to work. If I get chance I'll take a look into it, but if anyone else has used their system with a localhost connection to LMS, now would be a great time to comment!

Hi roobarb!
THX for providing update 1.60.
This will stop people from complaining about OpenFram1/2 DeviceType/DeviceName.

Yeah, unfortunately killing off the Player Type reporting needed to be done. It would have been nice for services not to be controlling access in that manner, but if that's how it has to be...

The "broken link" problem was fixed by Logitech. You should see now the softsqueeze image.

So today has posed a few problems...........
A power cut last night seems to have corrupted my internal installation of SPos. So I decided to flash the latest version (3.01) . all went well apart from I no longer seem to have LMS installed on the joggler. I also have no option in additional features to manually install LMS.
The joggler will connect to an external LMS (running on my Zylex nsa310 Nas) fine, but I need a instance of LMS on the joggler to run the triode iplayer plugins ( the zylex will not transcode the streams)
I am presuming this is a memory issue, although my last setup (version 2.9? I think) fitted onto the internal memory with LMS ok.
Looking in storage usage I have size-935M ; used-578M ; available-310M ; % used-66%
So.... surely this is not a universal problem and if not how can I resolve this?
does the re flashing tool reset all partitions?
Any help appreciated, could do with this working for the holidays

Paul,
roobarb! has always discouraged using the internal memory for Squeezeplay, so why not re-install the old v2.6 or use an external USB stick for the latest new version.

Thanks for the reply Ronnie, unfortunately my current setup makes use of the internal wifi card and also connects via usb to a topping TP30 amp, to utilise the amps internal dac. I do not have a usb hub to hand, and the system looks a lot neater without one.
SPos has obviously been developed to be installed to both internally and externally, i just wondered why my install was not working as intended and what options had to try and resolve the situation.
I may revert to version 2 as a stop gap and also use a memory card on the internal slot once my ethernet cable is installed and wifi is no longer needed

Just check if you are using the right - internal - image.
sqpos301_of2.img.gz
Is it relay a OF2 HW with a front facing speakers?
See:
Which version should I download?

Hi palindrom
Yes I use the version 2.
If I flash the openframe os, so it works.
But if I use the sqpos301_of2.img.gz, the joggler is still hanging with bootlogo from Swisscom.

Odd. I'll check the images tomorrow, just in case. I've got a couple of minor tweaks to pop in too, if I can remember what they were!

If I start the first time, so i received the Setup menue from SwisscomOpenframe.
In first situation, I interupt this sequenze after get a ip adress. In this Joggler the flashing and after reboot works.
In the second Joggler, I interupt the sequenze after Change the language.
In this joggler after flashing nothing happens. Only the bootlogo from Swisscom is showing.
hmmm strange...
If I flash the orginal openframe Software, it works after rebooting.
So I thinks it's a Problem with booting or the joggler hasn't received a IP adress once.

You'd need to go digging into the skin design code to alter that sort of thing - good luck!

I have been having problems trying to get my jogglers onto my wireless network. I just read that you need to have the SSID broadcast for it to work and mine is hidden. Once it is connected, would I be able to hide it again or will it always need to be broadcast?
