There are degrees to things, logi could do some rudimentary testing with a clean product without the most complicated plugins. So a basic test with installing the sw on officially supported platforms setup a bunch of players scan a test library, play some music etc (using consumer grade routers on DCHP ;) with pw protection on in SC ) . Just some normal sanity checks input vs output compared to a specification. A beta is supposed to be a *functional* software with bugs known or unknown, betas are perfect for finding the thousands of small issues that would require months of in-house testing to find. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- No it can NOT be controlled with iTunes.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66745 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
