I have a Squeezebox Radio connected to my NasReady. It works fine when my computer is on and when Logitech Media Server is started from there. But when I turn off my computer. I can't access my Nas anymore. I get the message on the display of my Squeezebox (translated from Swedish) "Your computer is not connected to the network or start your Squeeze Server". I have installed the Squeezebox Server software like this - http://logitech-en-amr.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/17012/section/troubleshoot/crid/439/lt_product_id/5847/tabs/1,3,2,5/cl/us,en.What else can I do to access my Nas while my computer is off? I don't want to start the Squeezebox Server everytime to make it work.Thankful for any help!Ola

I am not sure I understand you correctly.You need Squeezecenter (Logitech Media Server) installed on your readynas, not on your PC - have you done this?You will of course need to install the x86 version of Squeezecenter (Logitech Media Server) on your Duo v2 - the instruction page you provided a link to has not been updated.If you also have Squeezecenter (Logitech media Server) installed on your PC, then you may have pointed your SB Radio at this installation, rather than at the readynas installation - you will need to check this in the settings on your SBRadio (music source).I cannot think of any other reason why you would have this problem other than the fact that you have set up the SB radio to connect to an installation of Squeezecenter (Logitech Media Server) on your PC.

Hi Vandermerew!Thank you for your help. I will try to explain.You need Squeezecenter (Logitech Media Server) installed on your readynas, not on your PC - have you done this?Yes I need to install Squeezecenter on my ReadyNas, that must be the problem. But haven't I done so by following these instructions...?I have done this: http://logitech-en-amr.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/17012/section/troubleshoot/crid/439/lt_product_id/5847/tabs/1,3,2,5/cl/us,en.? What else must I do? Are there other steps (updated files etc) I must follow to complete the installation?You will of course need to install the x86 version of Squeezecenter (Logitech Media Server) on your Duo v2 - the instruction page you provided a link to has not been updated. - Is this another installation that I also need to do? Do you know where the updated link/files are?In my Squeezecenter on my PC I point to my NAS. Under the tab "Library" (swedish translation) , media source, I have the path \\mynas\media\music that is wrong? Then what should the correct path be?Regards,Ola

Login to your readynas interface, and look at the installed streaming services, Logitech media server should be there.The x86 I am referring to is the version of LMS that you need to install, you must NOT use the one for the Duo, NV,NV+. The link is there http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/S ... n_ReadyNASYou will need to configure Squeezecenter on the NAS, usually you need to access this from your PC using the LAN address of your readynas: ipaddressofduo:9000Once this is configured, you will need to tell your SBradio where to look for squeezecenter - this you will need to do on the actual SBradio itself under settings

Just a clarification:The Duo v2 is an ARM based product and at this time there is no SqueezeboxServer available for it. Therefore, despite the signature, I suspect the OP actually has a Duo v1 which is sparc based, not x86

I have a Duo 2. And went to this page (http://www.mysqueezebox.com/download) and downloaded the version for Duo 2. Is that not correct? In my Nas interface, streaming services, I have Squeeze center installed.You will need to configure Squeezecenter on the NAS, usually you need to access this from your PC using the LAN address of your readynas: ipaddressofduo:9000I am not sure how to do this. If you could give me a brief description I would be very happy!The Duo v2 is an ARM based product and at this time there is no SqueezeboxServer available for it - what does this mean? Can I not run Squeezebox on this version of the NAS??Thanks for your support!Ola

Make sure that SBS on your NAS is properly scanning your Music (Path to your music is typically specified as /<share>/folder/storing/your/music - for example /media/Music/mp3 - beware the path is case sensitive)

- Check

Make sure your player is connected to SBS on the NAS, not the one on your PC

- this is something i might need a brief explanation of. Cause now it only works when I have my PC turned on. In mysqueezebox.com I get the message that my SB is not connected.

I appriceate you taking time to help me!

Services / Streamingservices/ I only have Squeeze center installed. Should I have more Squeeze products here? On the screen it says I can download the "full version" but that link doesn't work. Do I need that one?

I am not sure about this: "You will need to configure Squeezecenter on the NAS, usually you need to access this from your PC using the LAN address of your readynas: ipaddressofduo:9000"

No

Enter http://ip.address.of.duo:9000 into a browser - replacing "ip.address.of.duo" with the IP address of your Duo eg http://192.168.1.100:9000

Ok, I followed the wizard and I hope it was a success. I must call my wife at home and see if it works..

Your music should appear in the web interface you just loaded once the scan is complete. Once the music is present there, any further issues are likely due to the player itself not accessing the NAS based SBS

The last (?) problem is that there is no SB connected to the media server. Seems like the media server is not able to find it. When I log in to mysqueezebox.com my player is there (I have only one SB Radio) but that is not connected. So - how do I connect my SB to the mediaserver?

I can see all my media in the interface.

It is not a server problem, but a player problem. Your Player is connected to the Logitech mysqueezebox.com internet service instead of to your NAS and this can only be corrected on the player.

IIRC (no SBR to hand) go to the "My Music" menu and scroll down - there should be an option to change the connection
