Yeah, the debian repo for SBS isn't up to date. You can go to
http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/ to download the 7.6.1 deb
package. Then install via:
sudo dpkg --install [path and filename to deb file]

Yebbut codecs aren't part of "slimserver". It's all open source.
Serious outsiders would do well to consider the complexity of the
current code, and perhaps contribute rather than fork.

I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you.

To my knowledge most code is free (GPL) but some codecs are closed
source (and of course all integration stuff to streaming services,
which is hosted on mysb.com).
There is no dedicated license about all the images, so they must be
considered Logitechs property as well.
