Re: [slim] Rhapsody on Slim
I would very much like to hand over ownership of RealSlim to an interested developer. My suspicion is that getting it to work more reliably and with v6 is not a huge undertaking. Kevin, you're right - it is in need of TLC. I would love to fix it (if for no other reason, so I can resume using it myself!), but my employment with Slim Devices makes it hard to do so. Anyone interested in taking it over? --Vidur Kevin Hawkins wrote: Hi... any news on this as V6 and SB2 surface ? - Many hands make light work..

Re: [slim] Rhapsody on Slim
Maybe this has been discussed before, but why not just openly support Rhapsody?? Wouldn't this benefit both Slim and Rhapsody? --- Vidur Apparao [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I would very much like to hand over ownership of RealSlim to an interested developer.

Chris Glushko [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Maybe this has been discussed before, but why not just openly support Rhapsody?? Wouldn't this benefit both Slim and Rhapsody? I'd love to see Rhapsody support added to slimserver v6 be this by way of Realslim or official cooperation with Rhapsody. There may, however, be a drawback to officially supporting Rhapsody. I've had the opportunity to use at least 2 devices which officially support Rhapsody (the prismiq and the omnifi) and I actually found at least one aspect of their support to be inferior to what Realslim provides: on the prismiq you are limited to browsing your library (you can't search the entire Rhapsody library, nor can you add albums/tracks to your library from the device). Through reading some of the prismiq documentation I've come to believe this is actually a limitation of the official rhapsody protocol. I'm not sure how realslim currently provides this functionality but I sure do find it handy. ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
