Thanks so much Gary & Michael. Yes, it all looks very simple and now

Hello all. I visit here very infrequently because for over a decade now
LMS plus a single player that I use to stream locally stored FLAC rips
of my CDs has worked perfectly for me with no issues at all, all now
controlled by the excellent iPeng. The actual hardware might have
changed over the ye

this is a settable option.

latest PowerLine technology and discover such a pleasant surprise.
Thanks again to everyone who steered me in some good directions. It
seems I actually have a number of attractive options and I though
any workable solutions for getting one's DVD collection onto
a PC and streaming it wirelessly to one's TV in decent quality or does
the copy protection on DVDs kill the whole idea dead?
I know this isn't directly SB-related but I'd be really suprised if

lot of stuff without needing the stylus.
Basically though, I definitely recommend it.

Artist value where appropriate for the list views (which does make a
huge amount of sense, if SlimServer is delivering a list that has been
sorted using Albumsort substitutions then surely it makes sense to have
an option for the labeling of that list to reflect the labels used to
sort it). This week has been a bit of a nightmare work-wise so I really
wil try to file the request in Bugzilla this weekend.

Sigh. It looks as if I am suffering the same thing that someone else

d enable both schemes to work and regular 4 digit years would

with my proposed tags because the string to integer convertion would
