IMHO The squeeze box is a tremendous peice of hardware. Unfortunately it is largely accessed via Slimverver. A classic piece of open source software written by techies for techies. The user interface is poor as is the documentation.
A few examples :- When I "browse music" why does "browse music folder" play songs in a different order to "browse album" ? Where do I find a definitive tagging guide for each music format ? (I ended up running a grep on the perl modules to solve this one) What on earth does the following mean ? "Albums that contain songs that are tagged with a band may be listed under that band name or with the other artists for that album. The band tag is also known as TPE2 and may appear as the "album artist" in some software." I have an extreme technical bias and still don't find using the system intuitive. An easy measure of usabilty :- If you gave a squeezebox to your granny for Christmas would she use it to play music or as a door stop ? -- NeilH ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NeilH's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=822 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18651 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
