Dito on the Apple fan part. You are not alone at thinking that the web gui is awfully slow and not really that fancy looking. At the same time I am a firm believer in having a home server which is on 24/7 and not requiring your desktop computer to be on just to play some music. I wish that SS would be more layered (i.e. core functions separated from the web gui). To overcome the limitations of the web gui, I have been thinking about making a very simple client application (or even a new web application) to quickly be able to browse my collection from a PDA or a computer. To interact with SS I would just create URL strings and do background HTTP GETs (ignoring the output). Personally I think that SS must be made more sexy to increase its appeal to the general public. People want coverflow. Let's not underestimate the amount of audio fidelity that people at large are willing to sacrifice for nicer looking GUI. -- bergek Transporter - Squeezebox 3 - Serener GS-L02 - Via EPIA SP8000 - Ubuntu 6.06 Server ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bergek's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7805 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31879 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
