Bugzilla – Bug 8329
Display a message on the screen if the SC is too old
Last modified: 2008-12-15 12:37:24 UTC
The current behavior when you run an old SC against a boom is not too useful. Can the Boom FW detect the version somehow and tell the user to upgrade? "Problem: Please upgrade SqueezeCenter to version 7.2 or above."
James to open a new enhancement bug, generic to all SB products, then close this one as a dupe of that one.
Created attachment 3408 [details] Fw and SC changes to check for proper server version (work in progress) It kind of works but is not tested at all. SC code needs to actually get and send proper version to player. (Currently version is hard coded in Discovery.pm) Tests I think need to be done at least: - Test with all players (SB, TR, etc.) - Test with SN / SN test - Test with CAT
Firmware rev 4466 shows an error message if Boom tries to connect to a too old SC. It's not done via version number, but if a Boom gets kicked off a SC three times in a row, it assumes it is because of a too old SC and shows a message to the user to please upgrade SC. BTW: The same code was already in place for Transporter, I changed it to be used for Boom.
Verified fixed in r18
