Setting up a Pi for an LMS server will take about 30 minutes, I and can even give you phone support if you want. -- I used to run my LMS Server on a Synology NAS, but I feel the Rpi is a bit faster.... Also, you wouldn't have the problems that you are now experiencing in this thread. Also you are dealing with just one Download (PiCorePlayer) instead of separate Download for the NAS. And yes, you still point to the Music Library from the Raspberry Pi.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cut-Throat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43167 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111876 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
