Description James Richardson 2008-04-22 10:07:01 UTC

SB Classic & Receiver can not synchronize when attached to SN/SC.

Using the SB2/3 interface, I can not sync to a Receiver.

Using the Controller interface, I can sync to a SB2/3

Comment 1 James Richardson 2008-04-22 10:13:06 UTC

The problem is with the SB2/3 & Transporter interface.  Attempting to use the UI to sync to another player fails.

Comment 2 Chris Owens 2008-04-28 09:50:19 UTC

Andy notes this is a problem with the player UI showing duplicate player icons or not showing some players.

Andy suggests we make the player UI work more like the Jive and Web UI.  Is that OK, Dean?

Comment 3 Blackketter Dean 2008-04-28 15:02:02 UTC

I'd defer to Alan on this.  Alan: what do you propose?

Comment 4 Andy Grundman 2008-04-28 15:02:55 UTC

What I meant was that the player UI for sync is really broken and doesn't match the 'checkbox' UI's of web and Jive.  Why not have a checkbox UI for the player too?

Comment 5 Alan Young 2008-05-05 01:58:23 UTC

People have already complained that they do not like the (new) Web and Controller Sync UIs, where the checkbox approach leads to "push" instead of "pull" synchronization. 

In any case, I do not think that the UI semantics are the problem here, assuming that I understand the issue correctly. I'll look at this more closely later.

Comment 6 James Richardson 2008-05-09 09:47:51 UTC

The problem I was originally describing appears to be fixed now in 7.0.1 - 19522 / FW r23, r88, r37

using either SC or SN I am able to properly sync / unsync the players using either the WEB UI or the Player(s) UI.

Marking this bug as Fixed for now
