Another Heads up for SB Touch owners...

RAM can still fail

True, and that's why we have backups. But the failure rates for RAM are negligible compared with the HD failure rates.

Hi Gaz,
I am interested in doing this but dont understand:
You need to change Save as Type:Text Documents (*.txt) to "All Files" and change File Name to custom-convert.conf - MANUALLY type in.conf...)
ok?

I have copied it as a plain text document and put custom-convert.conf as the file name. What is the All files bit?
Sorry to be a thicko.

Hey Jerry

when saving text files theres two things you can change:
"File Name:"
and
"save as type

you've already changed "File name" to "custom-convert.conf", which you need to do...but you also need to "Change as Type" from Text Documents(*.txt( to "All Files"...THEN save your file...

I just meant that BY DEFAULT anything you type into a text doument is saved as "text document" (*.txt) BUT you can save what you type in there as ANY type of file...you just need to click on the grey bar to the right of "Save as Type" (when saving your file) and change it from "Text Documents (*.txt)" to "All Files".

Thanks Gaz, got the All Files box. There is a third box now with ANSI in it-is that right?

[Ali Tait]

I can see I have a long way to go, I don't have a bloody clue what you're talking about!

Ali, I can send you the file you need to stick in your Squeezebox directory, no need for complicated computer stuff!

[Covenant]

Right, thanks again for your help Gaz. I will have a poke around to see where its to go. Might leave it for tonight, open a can and play some tooons!

[Ali Tait]

Cheers mate, it's not that, it's just I've never used squeezecenter to control the Touch as I've always just plugged the Drobo directly in.

Happy to help Alex, hope you find the Upsampling Tweak as good as I did!

Quick additional question: this upsampling will only work on FLAC? I'm asking because I have other lossless files (WAV and AIFF).
