Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] LMS 8.3: change in mysqueezebox.com authentication

2021-08-12 Thread philchillbill


There's a difference between a password for LMS locally and a password
for MySB. As I understood it, the change applies to MySB authentication
only.

Not commenting on the sanity/desirability of the requirement to do so,
but if you need to add a single line of text to hundreds of files then a
3-line script in e.g bash/Perl/Python will do it in a jiffy. No need to
do it by hand.

Aha, indeed more complex. What's the advantage of embedding a cue-sheet
in a flac rather than just regular tags?
