Re: [slim] Licenses Agrrement for SqueezeBox-Server

I'm quite happy now, there are no ressources from SBS in my images. The users have to download and install SBS by theirselfs. A script does it all automatically, the user has only read and agree to the license-agreement. The advatage is, that users can choose the SBS version to be installed by

Re: [slim] Licenses Agrrement for SqueezeBox-Server

If you want to use the standard SBS software, I'd do as Michael suggests, just download it automatically from Logitech at installation or first startup. However, if you want to customize it you have two options: 1. Contact Logitech to get permissions OR 2. If you are only supporting OSX/Linux,

Re: [slim] Licenses Agrrement for SqueezeBox-Server

thanks for the replies. A pitty no official is reacting. The question was more about the evaluation of all available options. I'm too lazy to build a live image or distribution. Users should read documentation an learn how to use their system ;) -- fragfutter

IIRC most of the distribution have asked the same questions and the main issue is no firmware in the distribution - all necessary firmware is downloaded automatically. I think you also have to distribute the source code so a compiled version as in the Windows distro is not allowed. If changes

Re: [slim] Licenses Agrrement for SqueezeBox-Server

There is also the requirement to obtain written permission to redistribute logos, graphics, animations, and documentation. I don't recall anyone who has done this and described the process in the forums. I imagine it was pretty easy in the pre-Logitech days. No idea how it is now or to whom,

could someone please tell me, whether it is compliant to integarte SBS-Server in a free downloadable distribution? I can't give you an authorative answer. But I wouldn't do it for the sake of simplicity anyway. You better provide a simple means to download and install the latest (semi-)
