Bugzilla – Bug 6807
"Add Your Player" Screen Needs Info on Geting PINs for Various Players
Last modified: 2009-09-08 09:31:01 UTC
I was using the beta.squeezenetwork.com and creating an account. I got to the "Add Player" screen and I went about finding the PINs for my existing Transporter. I couldn't find the PIN. Could we add some helpful information on this screen for people to look for PINs on SB3 or Transporters or whatever equipment you already have or what to do with such equipment? Adding screenshot.
Created attachment 2735 [details] SN Screenshot
Also remember that the new SN requires you to enter a PIN, you can't get past the screen on your player without entering it. So it should be easier to find.
Will review the outstanding SN bugs after 7.0 ships.
need copy / graphics for this screen
Dean/Brian/marketing/whoever: could somebody please offer some wording? Unassigning to get more attention. This bug doesn't need to be assigned to Matt as long as there's not solution to be implemented.
Ok, this is messed up. :) Let's kill the separate "Add a player" screen and just have the "My Devices" screen. Attached is how it looks now, and how it _should_ look.
Created attachment 2897 [details] This is the other screen (also broken) that needs to be combined into one device management screen.
Created attachment 2898 [details] What the screen should look like The text is this: Use this screen to add a new Squeezebox, Transporter or Controller to your account or adjust the settings on your device. You can also delete a device from your account if you are no longer using it. To add a device, choose SqueezeNetwork during setup, from the Home menu or in Settings under Music Sources. If your device hasn’t been connected to SqueezeNetwork before, your Player Idendification Number or PIN, will be displayed. If your device has been connected before, look for the PIN in Settings. Enter the PIN in the box to the right and choose a name for your player, such as Living Room, then click Add.
BTW: The player name should also be a link to its settings screen.
change 2612 - please test! Thanks!
Great, thanks. Couple of minor tweaks: - Make "Players and Controllers" instead "My Devices" in the top bar - Make the title of the top left area also "About My Devices" - Make the title of the top right area "Add A Device" Finally, make the name of the device also a link to its settings.
change 2650 - time to test again...
