Agree Nick (and just posted that sentiment in the "squeebox Radio Down again" thread. And yes, use of SbS 24/7 solves LOTS of problems I think. One thing to consider re: favorites. On the bottom of the favorites list on mysb.com, you can save the list to an opml file. I've done that in the past, and then imported that into SbS. Bingo, all my favorites now in SbS as well. Even better, I've set up my favorites using folders and subfolders within SbS, then saved the opml file from there. Then I've "hosted" this favorites.opml file on a bit of free webspace I have with my internet provider. I create a FAVORITE on mysb.com with the URL of the hosted file, name it "Gary's SbS Favorites", then it shows up as a favorite on mysb.com and when I select it, I have all the favorites, including folder structure. I don't really use mysb.com much, if any, but if I do (and when I did), all my organized favorites from SbS were there. p.s. I had no clue I had any webspace for hosting from my internet provider until I started poking about. -- garym System 1: Vortexbox Appliance (1.5) > SbS 7.5.4 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) System 2: Win7(64) laptop > SbS 7.6.1 > Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio and laptop) Retired: SB3, Duet Receiver Controlled at both locations with: iPhone (iPeng), iPad (iPeng & SqueezePad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.6 on Win7(64) laptop Ripping (FLAC) - dbpoweramp, Additional Tagging - mp3tag ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89831 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
