Hello,

I can not recommend installing LMS *7.9.0 or later* to MBL (D).
Why?

I have been running a Squeezebox radio in our kitchen for years. At some
point, I installed LMS *7.7. ** on the NAS (MBLD 4 TB) by using the
recommendations given in this thread and it ran without complaints.
So far so good.

Sometimes later I added a Raspberry Pi with volumio and HifiBerry-DAC in
the living room for the connection to the stereo system.

At some point I noticed that newly added mp3/m4b did not appear in the
scan of the LMS and could not be brought into its DB.
After studying the change log, I decided to upgrade to 7.9.0. Despite
nearly ten installations/uninstallations with various slimings: moving
the cache, switching off all plugins, etc., only one time a more or less
complete scan of the music library (> 66 K songs) could be triggered.
Than the system crashed and brought me to do unsuccessful installations
again and again...

At that point I moved frustrated to my Raspberry Pi - installed the
version and everything runs immediately and without any restrictions.

Therefore, I must conclude that at least the newer versions of the LMS
are no longer suitable for an installation on MBL. It is much more
cost-effective to save the time spent on unsuccessful attempts to
acquire a Raspi.


Don“t have too much fun!
