Squeezebox Radio would not connect to LMS 8: "Update required"

What is supposed to happen once I connected it to mysb.com?

Not a lot really.

You can play certain radio stations without having LMS running.

Click "Remote Control".

Hm, I meant how am I going to proceed with the update. But after several restarts and reinstalling of applet installer, connection to mysb.com and disconnecting again, there is still no progress. Where can I install the update?

Hi, I've bought a SB radio from eBay but I can't get it to connect to my server (rPi3 running LMS 8.2.0 - 1627922070). I've entered my squeezebox network credentials and I assume its connected to this although frankly it's not clear. If I go to 'My Music' on the radio, enter my username and password, I get the '<server name> needs to be updated to a newer version ...' message. After I've installed 'Patch Installer', it doesn't appear in Settings > Advanced, so I can't go ahead to install the version comparison fix.

I've tried to install an earlier version of LMS on my Mac and on another raspberry pi, but currently I can't get them running. Any help gratefully received, thank you!

All I want is being able to connect my SBR to an LMS version 8.2 which I newly installed on an RPI 4

It "Should" connect but if it isn't you could install LMS 7.9 then install the patch "Version comparison fix" on the Radio. Then reinstall LMS 8.2.

I have an LMS 8.2 installation on a RPi4, serving two Squeezebox Radios, both running the last Logitech firmware 7.7.3-r16676 without the version patch fix.

Radios connect fine and behave perfectly, I just ignore any outdated or incompatible version messages.

As of now I cannot seem to even connect to wifi. Although my router shows a connection both by Lan and by WLan the SBR keeps displaying the network button in red and does not connect to my LMS. In addition I cannot disconnect it from mysb.com although I am logged into this page.

Sorry, haven't checked for any replies for a few days...

yes I have but they don't all seem to be applicable to my case e.g. I have an internet connection working etc.
Interestingly the SBR connects to the internet and downloads an update ie the same firmware version that is already installed but having restarted it will not have changed its behaviour. I am now trying to reset it to factory settings

Hello

I'm trying to update the SBR firmware on four radios. Will do this one at a time, starting with the least-used unit. Upon boot, this one reads 'beta hardware. Some features may not work. Current fw on all units is 7.73, successfully connecting to LMS 8.2 on a Pi3 running Max2play 2.56(latest version).

I've followed ralphy's instructions to the letter, yet the SBRs do not display an option for firmware 8.x, only the current version. Radio is connected to LMS, not mysqeezebox. I've allowed 24hr to elapse for firmware download.

Restoring SBR to factory was successful. Maybe the beta hardware won't allow any further update. I'll try on one of the three 'downgraded' UE radios.

Puzzled. Everything works, so am inclined to follow the 'ain't broke, don't fix' wisdom.

Did you install the plugin which allows the installation of the community firmware? After installation you also need to tick the box in settings.

Yes. Wasn't patient enough earlier. All four updated successfully.
