Re: [slim] How to get started on Windows?
Some additional info: LMS and the music files do not have to be on the same box (although they can be). The music files simply have to be accessible somewhere within your network. Also, LMS only scans the folders that you tell it to scan (see below). I previously had my music files on a shared network drive and I now have them on a NAS. I have LMS on a Raspberry Pi running Max2Play - https://www.max2play.com/ . You could also run it on any of your Windows computers (maybe even your Windows Home Server). Squeezelite (or Squeezelite-x) would go on any of your computers that you want to play music on (whether or not they have LMS installed). It looks like MusicCast supports Airplay so you could use philippe_44's AirPlay Bridge plug-in to stream your music to your Yamaha. Philippe_44 also wrote plug-ins for Chromecast players (CastBridge) and UPnP/DLNA players (UPnPbridge). 36266 +---+ |Filename: LMS.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36266| +---+ oldfolkie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=45065 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115467 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

One little addition to P Nelsons reply. Squeezelite-x can run on the same PC that you install LMS on and will play through your PC speakers.

It's open source so you can check behaviour - although github doesn't lookup to date. https://github.com/PaoloM/Fiona bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115472 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] How to get started on Windows?
I agree the jargon can be a problem if you have not been following the forum and using the products. Since your new to Logitech media server (LMS) and squeezebox system, a high level overview might be helpful. First, LMS is the music server which handles delivering music files (from your own library or internet streaming) to squeezebox devices. Second, is the squeezebox devices as the Radio, Touch, Transporter, etc., or a device running squeezelite. Except for the Radio and Boom, the second device will transmit analog or digital output to your stereo. In other words you need both LMS and a second device to play music on an audio system. LMS can run on a windows 10, Mac, or Linux. If you dont have a Logitech physical equipment ( Radio, Touch, etc.) is where squeezelite is used. You can run squeezelite on a windows machine to listen to music on the computer. Finally, there is picoreplayer (PCP) which runs on a raspberry pi and is able to run both the LMS server and a player (squeezelite) to deliver analog or digital output to your audio system. See https://www.picoreplayer.org/. The PCP option is nice because the system can be run on a tiny standalone pi which does not require the overhead of running a windows10 computer. I use pcp to run LMS and I followed the instructions on the website and I dont know Linux. You mentioned Yamaha Music-cast, when I looked at the website it appears it offer similar functions as LMS. It mentioned the internet music services, but it did not mention if you can play your own music library. Some more detail of what you want to do and what physical equipment you have would help others on the forum give you more detailed suggestions. Jivelite is a graphical software used by those with the technical skills to build their own Touch. I have not used it.

Very helpful. On my network I have a third generation Windows Home Server, officially known as Windows Storage Server. It runs on an HP Microserver with a very light CPU (either a ARM or a Celeron), and 2 GB RAM. I also have my desktop and several older systems with i5 CPU's and SSD drives, and 8 GB RAM. I can run XP, 7 or 10 on these, or 8 if I must. The music files are stored on the Storage Server. I'm guessing all the music files need to be on the same box as the LMS or in a shared folder accessible to the LMS. If not like that, then how? If so, where does Squeezelite go? Or is there a better way, while staying in Windows? If I have files I don't want LMS to "see" or catalog, or list, such as all the non-music "music" like hip-hop/rap that children want to store, how can I isolate them, as it appears LMS will scan anything it can find. Or will it not bother with root shares which in windows are C$ etc. Thanks again for any assistance. flyfishing's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=72309 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115467 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Interesting that it includes "Now Playing page with artist images" and "Albums and artists images and biographies sourced from Discogs.com" Off to see if it does it for streaming radio.
