Description Peter Watkins 2009-08-22 19:00:56 UTC
I was not surprised when test.SN complained that it could not reach the 192.168 url I gave for a stream I added as a new favorite. But I was surprised that baby gives a "Connect timed out" error when I ask it to play that new 192.168 favorite. Shouldn't it connect directly to that URL and play even without a local SC/SBS instance?

using only MySB.com, running firmware r7177

Try adding the favorite with the noscan flag, such as http://192.168.1.2/stream#slim:noscan=1
Comment 2 Peter Watkins 2009-08-24 17:13:28 UTC
That works for me too, but how would a regular user find that magic "#slim:noscan=1" fragment? Maybe the web UI should have a checkbox to offer the noscan treatment and hide the URL details?

Thanks. It's nice being able to listen to local radio on the Radio now. :-)
Comment 3 Andy Grundman 2009-08-24 17:23:40 UTC
Probably the right way to handle it is if you enter a URL that SN can't connect to at all, just assume it's internal and automatically add the noscan flag, possibly with some other wording on the message box.

That sounds like a great solution.
Comment 5 James Richardson 2009-08-24 18:34:10 UTC
Andy: should we pass this to Weldon for the dialog box?
Comment 6 Andy Grundman 2009-08-24 19:24:35 UTC
Nah I can write it.
