About Squeezebox Duet
Thank you for purchasing Logitech’s Squeezebox Duet network music system.
We hope you have as much fun using it as we had building it for you.
The Squeezebox Duet package includes Squeezebox Controller, a multi-room
wireless controller that lets you browse, select and play your personal music
collection, tune to thousands of Internet radio stations, use music services
like Rhapsody and Pandora Radio, and even access an MP3tunes music locker,
all in the palm of your hand. Also included is Squeezebox Receiver, a compact
network music player that delivers the music stored on your computer or
the Internet to your stereo or powered speakers using your home network.
You can add additional Squeezebox Receivers, or other Squeezebox family
players, to other rooms in your home and listen to a unique playlist on each
one, or synchronize them to play the same music everywhere.
This User Guide includes setup and basic instructions for using your
Squeezebox Duet. As we are constantly upgrading and improving the
product, not all features may be covered here. You can find additional
information about the latest features, as well as join our active community
forums and access detailed documentation for developers on our web site at

Before You Begin
If you already have a wireless or ethernet network and a computer to use as
a server, setting up your Squeezebox Duet should take about 30 minutes. To
make the set up as simple as possible, there are a few things you should do.
Choose Your Network Setup
Installing your new Squeezebox Duet is easier if you know how your home
network is set up, so you can follow the correct installation instructions.
There are three possible configurations:
•
An “all-wireless” installation, where you already have a wireless
network in your home and you will connect both Squeezebox
Controller and Squeezebox Receiver to it.
•
A “hybrid” installation, where you have both a wireless and wired
network in your home, and you will be connecting Squeezebox
Controller wirelessly and Squeezebox Receiver with an ethernet
cable.
•
A “bridged” installation, used when you only have a wired network.
In this configuration, Squeezebox Receiver is connected to your
network with an ethernet cable, and Squeezebox Controller uses the
Receiver as a “bridge” back to your network.
Find Your Wireless Network Settings
This section applies only if you will be setting up Squeezebox Duet to
connect to your existing wireless network in an all-wireless or a hybrid
installation. Gathering information about your network now will make the set
up process easier.
Network name (SSID): _________________________________
Security Key: _________________________________________
If your network is secured, you will need to enter the security key when you
set up your network music system.
Squeezebox Duet supports the most common types of security keys used
on 802.11 wireless networks: WEP (64- and 128-bit), WPA, and WPA2. It is
important that you have the security key ready before you start.
Squeezebox™ Duet User Guide
5
•
•
WEP keys are entered as hexadecimal numbers (the numbers 0 to 9
and the letters A to F). 64-bit WEP keys are exactly 10 digits in length;
128-bit keys are exactly 26 digits.
WPA and WPA2 keys are between 8 and 63 characters long, and
can use any letter (both upper- and lower-case) number or valid
punctuation.
The Squeezebox Duet will do its best to determine the type of security used,
but if you’re using WEP encryption it cannot determine if the key length is
64- or 128-bit so you’ll need to know that before you start.
If you are not sure about your network security setup, contact your ISP or the
party that installed or configured your wireless router.
Note to Apple Airport Base Station users. Squeezebox Duet follows the
802.11 standard and expects the WEP key to be in hexadecimal format.
The Airport Base Station uses ASCII characters for the WEP key. You’ll
need to find the hexadecimal version of your WEP key to configure your
Squeezebox Duet. To do that, please follow these steps:
Open the Airport Admin Utility. On Mac OS X this utility can be found
under Applications -> Utilities in the Finder. In Windows, it can be found
in Start -> Programs -> Airport Admin Utility.
Select your base station and click the “Configure” button.
Once the Configuration window is open, click the “Password” icon at
the top of the window (the icon resembling a padlock). This will show
you the key in HEX format. Write that down as the Security Key on the
previous page.
Note: 64-bit WEP keys on the Airport Base Station will have exactly 5
characters; 128-bit keys will have exactly 13 characters.
Using Squeezebox Controller
Now would be a good time to familiarize yourself with Squeezebox
Controller. Knowing how the interface works will will make it easier to set up
your Squeezebox Duet.

Tagging Your Music Files
SqueezeCenter organizes your music by Album, Artist, Genre, and Year. It
does this by scanning your music and reading this information from the tags
that are embedded within them. SqueezeCenter supports ID3v1 and ID3v2
tags, as well as Vorbis comments. Music purchased from online stores will
come pre-tagged, and most CD ripping applications allow you to tag your
music either manually, or via an online resource like CDDB.
You may sometimes encounter tracks which are not tagged, or which are
tagged incorrectly. In these cases, you can use a tag editor to correct the
problem. Visit our online documentation at wiki.slimdevices.com for a list
of tag editors for Windows, OS X and Linux, along with articles on the best
practices for tagging your music.
Internet Radio
Squeezebox Duet plays Internet radio by connecting to SqueezeNetwork, an
always-on, 24/7 service that provides access to a wide variety of radio and
online music services, even when your computer is off.
There are thousands of Internet radio stations available immediately and
more are being added all the time. Many are streaming versions of terrestrial
stations, and others are dedicated online stations. Squeezebox Duet plays
these stations through your Internet connection, so you will need broadband
access to play any of them.
To quickly get started playing an Internet radio station:
1. Go to Home > Internet Radio.
2. Select “Staff Picks” and press the center button.
3. Scroll to “Best of Internet Radio” and press the center button
4. Scroll to “Slim Showcase: Miles Davis”, and press play (or press the
center button and then select play from the next screen.)
The station will buffer and begin playing.

Appendix A: Configuring Your Firewall
Firewalls on your computer often cause connection problems for Squeezebox
Duet and other network devices. While it is not necessary to disable your
firewall in order to allow Squeezebox to communicate with your computer,
temporarily disabling it can be a quick way of diagnosing the problem.
If turning off your computer’s firewall allows Squeezebox Duet to connect
to SqueezeCenter, you should turn it back on and configure it to allow
communication on the following ports:
Port 3483 (UDP)
Port 3483 (TCP)
Port 9000 (TCP)
Logitech Technical Support can provide assistance with configuring the
firewalls built in to Windows and Macintosh OS X.
Note: It is not necessary, or even desirable, to change the firewall settings
on your router to use Squeezebox Duet unless your current firewall is
configured to limit access only for specific local hosts. Consult a network
professional if you are unsure of how to configure your network properly.

Appendix E: Using Apple iTunes
Apple’s iTunes is a music manager that helps you organize your collection,
rip your CDs, create and manage playlists, etc. It also connects to the iTunes
Music Store, where Apple offers music, videos and podcasts for purchase.
SqueezeCenter can use the iTunes music library. It cannot play songs
purchased from the iTunes Music Store that are protected by Apple’s FairPlay
Digital Rights Management (DRM) software. This is Apple’s decision, as they
will not license their DRM to other hardware manufacturers.
To set up SqueezeCenter to use your iTunes library, follow these steps:
1. Open SqueezeCenter and click on the Setting button.
2. Select the iTunes tab and make sure that the “Use iTunes” box is
selected. If not, set it and click “Apply.”
3. Select the Basic Settings tab.
•
•
Make sure Music Folder box is blank and click “Apply.”
Scroll to Rescan Music Library, select “Clear library and rescan
everything”, then click “Rescan” to start the scanning process.
If you experience problems where your music or playlists aren’t appearing,
and you followed the steps above, try the following:
1. In SqueezeCenter, go to Settings > iTunes.
2. Under iTunes Music Library.XML Location enter the path to the file.
•
On Windows XP, the default path is:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
On Windows Vista, the default path is
C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music Library.xml
On Mac OS X, the default path is:
•
•
/Users/username/Music/iTunes
3. Under iTunes Music Folder specify the folder where your music is
stored.
4. Go to the Basic Settings tab. Scroll down to Rescan Music Library,
select “Clear library and rescan everything” , then click “Rescan”.
If you’re still experiencing problems using iTunes after trying the steps listed
above, please contact Logitech Technical Support for assistance.

Appendix F: Troubleshooting
When setting up the Controller, my network does not appear.
The most common cause is lack of signal strength. Either the Controller is too
far away from the wireless router, or there is something interfering with the
signal.
Another possibility is that the wireless network has been configured to not
broadcast its SSID (network name) for security purposes. If this is the case,
the network name can be manually entered into the Controller. Select Other
Network and then use the following screen to enter the network name with
the scroll wheel.
When setting up the Receiver, my player does not appear.
Check the status light on the button in the front of the player. Flashing Red is
normal and indicates that the player is ready to be set up. If it is not flashing
red (for example, if the player was previously set up and we are repeating the
setup process on the Controller), press and hold the button until it flashes
red. Then, the receiver name should appear on Squeezebox Controller’s
display within a few seconds.
Players are displayed in the format Squeezebox XXXXXX, where XXXXXX is the
last six digits of the player’s MAC address. The MAC address is found on the
bottom of the player. For example, if the player’s MAC address is:
00:08:67:05:03:09
It will appear in the Set Up Receiver menu as Squeezebox 050309.
Other possible causes:
•
•
Check that the player is plugged in to a power outlet.
Confirm that the player is in range of the wireless network. If it’s
on the outer fringes of the network, consider temporarily moving
it closer to the wireless router for the purposes of setup and
demonstration. The Squeezebox Receiver can also be connected to a
router via an ethernet cable.
Squeezebox™ Duet User Guide
33
When setting up the Controller, no music sources appear.
Normally, you will see an option for SqueezeNetwork, as well as one or more
computers running SqueezeCenter. The computers running SqueezeCenter
will appear as they do to the network; often the name will be something
similar to JOHN-SMITH-COMPUTER.
SqueezeNetwork is operated by Logitech 24/7, so if Squeezebox Duet is
working correctly, it should always appear on this list. If it isn’t, try the
following:
•
•
Confirm that your network has access to the outside Internet.
If a computer running SqueezeCenter does not appear, try the
following:
•
•
Verify that SqueezeCenter has been installed and is presently
running.
Confirm that Squeezebox Duet is connected to the same network
that the server is connected to. If there are multiple networks
available, it may be the case that the computer is connected to one
network (via an ethernet or wireless connection), while Squeezebox
Duet was set up to connect to a different network.
Confirm that the computer’s firewall is not interfering. See Appendix
A: Configuring Your Firewall For The Squeezebox Duet.
•
The audio from Squeezebox is too quiet.
Make sure your cables are properly connected. Confirm that the volume is
set correctly for both Squeezebox Controller and the powered speakers or
amplifier to which the player is attached.
The button on my Receiver stays yellow.
Yellow indicates the Receiver is attempting to connect to your network. If it
stays yellow, please check the following:
1. Is the player within range of the wireless network?
2. Do the router’s security settings allow the connection of any device
which provides the correct password?
34
Logitech®
3. If MAC filtering is enabled on the wireless router, the player’s MAC
address should be added to the wireless router’s list of allowed
addresses. The Squeezebox Receiver’s MAC address can be found on
the bottom of the unit.
4. If you are connecting to the router using an ethernet cable, try the
following:
•
•
Try a different ethernet cable.
Verify that Squeezebox Controller is connecting wirelessly to the
same network that Squeezebox Receiver is using.
How do I use Static IP addresses with Squeezebox Duet?
If you have set up your network to use static IP addresses, your Squeezebox
Controller will display the message Address Problem – There was a problem
obtaining a DHCP address on your network. Scroll down to Use a static
address and press the center button. On the following screens you can
enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway address, and DNS server address
information for your network.
My music sounds choppy, distorted, or skips.
There may be excessive interference in your wireless connection, or the
wireless signal may otherwise be too weak. Try moving Squeezebox Receiver
closer to the wireless router, or removing sources of potential interference.
You can also try connecting Squeezebox Receiver directly to the router using
an ethernet cable; if this resolves the problem, then it’s most likely due to
wireless network signal strength or interference.
The Controller’s interface is sluggish, with long delays before
screens appear.
This is likely due to a weak wireless signal. Try moving the Controller closer to
the wireless router, or removing potential sources of interference.
Squeezebox Duet fails to connect to my wireless network.
Check the following:
•
Check your wireless encryption key. If the key is entered incorrectly,
Squeezebox Duet will not connect to your wireless network.
Squeezebox™ Duet User Guide
35
•
Check the router’s network name (also known as SSID) you’re
connecting to. If it’s a default name, like NETGEAR or LINKSYS,
consider changing your network’s name to something unique to
be sure you’re not inadvertently connecting to a nearby wireless
network with the same name.
•
•
Check your distance to the wireless router. Move Squeezebox Duet
closer to the wireless router and try connecting again.
Check the router itself. Try power cycling the router, wait about
a minute or so and try connecting again. Also, try updating the
software on your router.
•
Make sure MAC filtering is either OFF in your router, or that you
provide the correct MAC addresses for both Squeezebox Controller
and Receiver to your router.
The Receiver fails to connect to the network using an
ethernet cable.
Check all your network connections, and make sure that the DHCP server
is enabled in your router. Try using a different ethernet cable, even if the
switch or hub indicates a good link. Make sure your router or access point
has the latest software.
No music will play.
Make sure your music is not DRM protected. SqueezeCenter and Squeezebox
cannot play DRM protected music. If your music was purchased from the
iTunes Store, it may contain DRM. Only “iTunes Plus” tracks do not contain
DRM.
Make sure you have any firewalls on your system correctly configured to allow
communication between your server and player. Please see Appendix A:
Configuring Your Firewall.
Check the file format and be sure it’s one of the supported types. See
Appendix D Supported File Types for more information.
The FWD and REW buttons do not work with some songs in
my music library.
Seeking through a song (holding fwd or rew) only works with natively
supported file formats: MP3, FLAC, AIFF, and WMA (CBR & VBR).
36
Logitech®
Please note that by default WAV and AIFF files are converted to FLAC (a
compressed, lossless format) in order to save network bandwidth, and
therefore cannot be fast-forwarded. In order to seek through WAV or AIFF
files, you need to disable the WAV to FLAC decoder rule in SqueezeCenter by
going to Server > File Types.
SqueezeCenter can’t find all of my music.
Make sure that all of your digital music files are in one place on your
computer. You can store all of your files in a single folder, or create sub-
folders to help organize your music. The software you use to “rip” your CDs
to digital files, such as iTunes or Windows Media Player, may already do this,
organizing your collection by album or artist.
SqueezeCenter, the software that runs on your computer and delivers your
personal digital music collection to Squeezebox, will scan one folder (and
all sub-folders) for your music. If you have music stored in multiple folders,
or on different computers, you will have to create shortcuts in the primary
music folder so SqueezeCenter can find the other music.
Some of my track names are missing or incorrect; or some of
my album art is missing or doesn’t look right.
If you know that your songs all have valid tags or that your album art images
are fine, you may want to have SqueezeCenter rescan your music collection
by doing the following:
1. Open SqueezeCenter and go to Server > Basic Settings.
2. Verify that the Music Folder points to the music folder on your
computer. If it’s not, enter the correct path and click “Apply.”
3. Scroll down to Rescan Music Library and select “Clear library and
rescan everything” in the drop-down box, then click the “Rescan”
button.
SqueezeCenter will scan your music and rebuild the database it uses to
display the information about your collection, including album art. If
you are still experiencing problems, you should delete the cached files
SqueezeCenter uses to improve performance and the perform a rescan. To
delete the cache, do the following:
1. Stop SqueezeCenter
Squeezebox™ Duet User Guide
37
•
•
On Windows, right-click on the SqueezeCenter icon and click
“Stop SqueezeCenter”
On Mac OS X, open System Preferences > SqueezeCenter and
click on “Stop Server”
2. Remove the Cache folder used by SqueezeCenter
On Windows XP, the default location for the cache folder is:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\SqueezeCenter\Cache
On Windows Vista:, the default location for the cache folder is:
C:\ProgramData\SqueezeCenter\Cache
On Mac OS X, the default location for the cache folder is:
•
•
•
Home > Library > Application Support > SqueezeCenter
3. Restart SqueezeCenter. The scanning process will being as soon as
the server starts.
I have installed SqueezeCenter to allow playing of music
that’s kept on my computer. However, some or all of my
iTunes music library does not play.
Apple does not allow streaming of music to which DRM has been applied.
Most music purchased from the iTunes Store (with the exception of tracks
designated as “iTunes Plus”) have DRM applied, and cannot be played by
Squeezebox Duet or similar devices. CDs which you have ripped, or music
purchased in MP3 format from non-DRM music services (such as eMusic and
Amazon MP3) are compatible.
I cannot sign in to my new SqueezeNetwork account.
In order to complete your SqueezeNetwork registration you need to activate
it through the link sent to you via e-mail. Check your inbox for the activation
e-mail. Also check your Junk Mail or Spam folder, as your mail service may
have blocked or redirected the e-mail thinking it was bogus. If you have still
not received it, try logging into SqueezeNetwork anyway and you will get a
button you can click: “Resend Activation Email”. If that does not work, please
contact Logitech Technical Support.

Appendix G: Restoring Default Settings
If you would like to repeat the setup process (choosing your wireless network,
entering your network security password, and selecting your music source),
you can restore Squeezebox Controller to its default settings by going to
Home > Settings > Advanced > Factory Reset.
Alternatively:
1. Hold down the home button for 12 seconds to force a power down.
