Hi all
I found this site after my Squeezebox Duet controller stopped working 100%. I had previously had two Duet receivers fail, so I had switched to using a WiiM Mini. Much to my delight, the Duet controller continued to work with this, accessing the music stored on my NAS with Logitech Media Server running on my PC (I don't use any other streaming service). But recently, when I came back to using the system as set up, I got a "problem connecting" message: the controller could no longer connect with either my NAS or to my PC - "make sure your computer is turned on and that LMS is currently running". Well, it is (I am writing from it!) and LMS is running. On checking the diagnostics tab on LMS, I found as shown below: one of the ports had failed, while the mysqueezebox.com site was also non-functional. Further enquiry showed that it had been taken down by Logitech. I can still control the WiiM via my iPhone, but I am wondering if I can somehow resurrect the Duet controller, whose clock continues to work! and whose UI I really like! I don't understand ports very well. Can someone please advise? Thanks

Ah ah welcome !
I remember that I discovered this site by searching for squeezebox !
Never went through that...I abandoned digital, still listening to my tapes 😱

It seems to me that you can find the answer faster on the thematic forum.

my duet controller has been sitting in its charge stand for years collecting dust (always cleaned off though) since I started using a cell phone as controller through the LMS web interface. Try that, and do use the material skin plugin, save the UI to phone's home screen so that you can launch it just like launching an app. Your duet controller will soon become a dust collector too. Attached is a screenshot of a playing queue from the material skin.
By the way, my duet controller is still working, and the firmware is 8.0.1, r16916.
