It stopped on "We couldn't connect to ..." and try again, and try again and nothing since last 45mins. It's really annoying cos I can ssh to joggler but in this state is unusable. Is there any chance that this somehow could be fixed? Becuase of this I can't register it with my SqueezeBox account nor I can install LMS.

Thanks

Have installed SQPOS onto a 64Gb USB flash stick and used gparted to create a large fat32 partition.
That all went smoothly and have used the web interface to select usb0 as the media store.

3 Queries:
1.
What is the best way to transfer music onto the usb.
On my windows7 computer the partition is not visible for simple drag and drop.
Filezilla will transfer music over from my NAS when the drive is in the joggler but it is really slow.
Using Linux Mint on a flash drive worked for using gparted but doesn't see my NAS on the network and being a linux booby I'd rather not delve into the Linux innards.

2.
How can I find out the free space on the usb0 partition. Filezilla doesn't report it.
Again I'd rather not have to yank the stick out of the joggler and stick it in a Linux system if possible.

3.
The joggler is currently connected by ethernet cable.
If the cable is disconnected and the joggler restarted it wont find the LMS.
I've seen posts in the past asking about how to use the joggler without a network connection but don't recall seeing an answer.

TIA and especially thanks to roobarb for all his work

3. Where is LMS located? on the Joggler, or elsewhere?

So to recap:
When connected to the network and the server called USB64 is selected all is fine.
Shut down joggler, disconnect network and restart joggler.
It complains: "Couldnt connect to USB64. Make sure you are connected to the network" etc
Switch off, reconnect network, switch on, all is sweetness and light.
I can disconnect the network and it sails happily on (as indeed it should) still running USB64 and playing music.

Thanks for your interest.

bpa on the slimdevices forum has sorted a plugin for all the new HLS files to play.

I need to install ffmpeg on the Joggler but when I do

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

Package ffmpeg is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'ffmpeg' has no installation candidate


Can some one tell me how to install ffmpeg?

Thanks.

There's no ffmpeg on the stock OS.
