You can access the ripped music files - you just have to telnet on to the box and change the Samba configuration file to expose the /audio/music directory - you can then copy them off as you wish - or you could even have a SlimServer running on it to connect a Squeezebox - this is what I am doing. - Simon. -- brookheather ------------------------------------------------------------------------ brookheather's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4317 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21135 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
