I managed to update the SBR firmware to 7.5. Therefore I've setup a SBS 7.5 on my notebook and connected the SBR to it. After the update I switched the connection back to my SBS 7.4. So far no compatibility issues detected. -- doubleugk Dell Dimension 9150 | Intel Dual Core 2,8 | 3 GB RAM | WI

I believe that's true. I haven't run V7.5 against my Radio, but I've played with SqueezePlay v7.5 and it seems to work there when emulating a Radio. Another option is to use Erland's Custom Clock applet, where you can create a custom "now playing" screen. I am using a Custom Clock screen on my R
