Tricky tricky , I fit all off Erlands user categories at the same time ! i must be a squeezebox user :) .
Now i'm just chilling with my boom ,later I fill my whole apartment with music synced ,and later on I will use my hifi to enjouy serius SQ using one player . But i'm not in need of over advanced browsing and services is spotify or bandcamp and a fraction of web-radio (and now defunct Live Music Archive ) ,but 95% local files so that is spot on . We could build a matrix somehow , parameters that i find important : Wide fileformat support flac is must and 24/96 too and conversion of other rates and odd formats that’s not native . Unlimited library size (just add more disc CPU or whatnot ,but no architecture limits ) ,sonos 65k files on a good day is not good enough it's likely less with more tags in the files so I'll be there soon with my 37k files with quite a lot of tag info . Browsing should be better than the bare file folder structure. Based on tags or other user input to customize the experience, like ratings etc , not as advanced as many of erlands plugins but better than rock bottom. Music only device no TV needed to browse the music . A reasonable playlist feature , here it is very easy to actually be better than the squeezebox , I don't use playlist much mainly because the LMS solution is so shoddy , any post >y 2005 device should be able to generate a smart list based on a seed track. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96241 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
