Lms 7.8?

[copperstate]

I recently started using my SB3 again. Is it possible that the 7.8 branch might have problems dealing with the old "classic" SBs ? Mine seems to "loose" its connection to my LMS (r33951) from time to time ...

Hello,

How many of us have lost the ability to show a screensaver while Off such as the Digital clock or any other?
If you browse a bit on the forum you can find many users that have encountered this problem lately.
I don't know if it is linked to the LMS version but it is definitely connected to LMS.
Because I have 2 SB Touch and both shows the digital clock while Off after factory reset UNTIL you connect them to the LMS.
Then they lose this functionality and show nothing but a black screen while Off.
BTW I am using the Readynas Pro x86 version of LMS which does not have any control on the Touch's display.

Thanks

I have the same problem with 7.7.2.

FYI: 7.8 nightly does not seem to synch precisely. There seems to be a fraction of a second diff between my Touch and Boom.
Also, many listings in a playlist are blank. I
Thought you'd want to know. Thanks.

You can change the audio delay for each device under the web GUI player settings to get them perfectly in sync :-)

manual synching seems to beat the purpose of synchronized play... are you serious?

Those settings serves a purpose , if the delay is always and constantly the same, you only have to adjust it once .

Also ther is cases when sync can't work without the help of this. For example many HT receivers with some digital DRC and eq etc , the processing will introduce a delay that can not be known to the server unless you set it yourself .

There is some delay trough my processor and digital speakers that I adjusted for .

But that can be more finicky than you migth like , from where should it sync ,you need to listen equidistant to all sources than also go to each room and judge how fluttery it sounds and make a compromise judged from where you listen mostly .

Even if the sound comes out at the exact same moment in two players does guarantee subjectively good sync in all locations sound is not very fast, if you are extremely close to one player and crank up the volume on the one farthest away how does that sound to you ?

But a reasonable compromise can often be found, it's often ok on not to crazy volumes so that the closest player dominates the sound and the other are synced enough to not interfere in an irritating way .

Yes I am. LMS cannot know of every component's effect in your chain. E.g. if your lounge amplifier applied a 1ms delay how would LMS know that????

Does anybody know what changed in the latest lms build (LogitechMediaServer-7.8.0-1340607538) ?

Based on the git commit logs it looks like it was the new MOG icon:
