Calling a problem may be invalid. This works you just make sure that your mysqueezebox.com creds are entered into the mysqueezebox.com tab in the squeezebox server then any app should be able to work trough the local server contacting mysb.com in the background a few apps can have a corresponding serverside plugin that needs to be on some don't ( but nowadays this plugin should turn on automatically, maybe a restart is needed ) Sometimes the local server may get into dns problems in reality it can't connect to internet, this affects all mysb.com integration including the radio listings from mysb.com this rarely happen on real computers it is more common on nas installs. But you still install the app by going to mysqueezebox.com your player must be registred on your account which it is either by you during the setup or by the local server in the background. Another gotcha can be the age of the server and firmware version, using mysqueezebox.com truogh your local server means that you can skip upgrades and run old versions of firmware. This usually works fine untill you run * very * old versions of local server .

Re: [slim] What a palaver
What I wanted to say is that if things are setups in the normal way you go to mysqueezebox.com and turn on the app. And it works , a more involved app that have a service account tied to it may have some settings, but that s all. -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.

[slim] What a palaver
Hi all, I have read with interest various threads on how geeky or not the Squeezebox system is, and hought I'd share a recent experience. Earlier this week, I upgraded my Napster subscription, and also tried out the latest LMS server on a spare laptop ( I've obviously got too much time on my hands at present) Well I got everything configured eventually, but it was a hell of a lot more involved than I expected. I don't want to go into too much detail,( if anyone's interested I will) but to get Napster to appear on my apps, and not have to connect to it via mysqueezebox.com was a pain. I am speaking here as someone who loves Squeezebox, and having used it for a couple of years now, consider myself reasonably proficient with its idiosyncrasies, but there is no way that was a user friendly experience.. Now that I've finally got it set up as desired, I have to say I like LMS, and the Napster upgrade is well worth the extra £5 a month ( bye bye Spotify ), but it should not have been that difficult.
