Another solution is to try a few of the various third party "music library" front ends that are available.
Moose: "Moose is an advanced Windows frontend client for controlling and providing information about units connected to Logitech's Squeezebox Server." (http://www.rusticrhino.com/drlovegrove/) Moose is very fast and can handle very large music libraries with ease. My music library has over 260,000 tracks with over 19,000 albums and 11,000 artists and moose handles it quite nicely. MUSO: "What is muso? Muso acts as both a centralised information repository for your music collection, and an intuitive graphical user interface to allow you to browse your albums, tag them, filter them, and sort them in various flexible ways. Muso provides an alternative front end to your music player and allows you to experience a more meaningful interaction with your music collection." http://klarita.net/muso.html While muso is not intended to replace the standard SBS/LMS front end it does offer basic player controls. Muso strong points it's nice graphical display along with information gathered from several online sources. In addition there are several different apps available for various smart phone and tablets which work quite nicely as remote controls and displays. -- ralphpnj Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels -> Snatch -> The Transporter -> Transporter 2 (oops) -> Touch 'Last.fm' (http://www.last.fm/user/jazzfann/) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ralphpnj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10827 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94261 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
