Bugzilla – Bug 10460
Home menu shows only "Settings".
Last modified: 2009-01-02 22:24:14 UTC
All of the normal items shown on the Home screen are gone and the only item shown is "Settings". The only way to get the controller working correctly again is to remove and reinsert the battery. Once I do that, everything works correctly again. The controller had been in the charger overnight and was working correctly when I placed it in the charger. This happens about 40% of the time I pick up the controller after it has been in the charger for a long time (hours). There's no way to choose or reconnect to a player. If the controller IS disconnected from the player, at the very least, the Home screen should state this so that users know WHY only "Settings" is shown. But really it shouldn't have become disconnected in the first place. The Settings menu contains only Screen, Music Source, Home Menu, and Advanced. Music Source shows SqueezeNetwork checked. The Advanced menu contains About, Audio Playback, Date & Time, Language, Remote Login, Software Update, Sound Effects, Turn Off, Wireless Network, Wireless Region, Factory Test, Factory Reset. The wireless connection to both the controller and the Receiver appears to be good.
what firmware version is on your controller? what version of Squeezecenter are you running? was this controller attached to SC or SN at the time it had this error?
Controller firmware: 7.3 r3476. The controller WAS connected to SqueezeNetwork at the time it had the error (at least it said it was still connected). I don't use SqueezeCenter but I think 7.3 was likely installed on my computer at the time.
