Hi,
I somehow don't get it. How do I install the patch installer?
And where do I find the actual audio 100% patch so that the patch
installer can install it?
Thanks,

You need a Squeezebox Server installed on a computer at the moment.
On the Touch, now connect to the SBS and select
Settings/Advanced/Applet Installer, uncheck the Recommended applets
only checkbox and

Where its going to be located relative to where you are sitting is a
significant factor. If the Touch is going to be right next to your
listening position you can use the Touch screen itself. If

I had problems with the Touch, on a Windows Home Server.

I can only agree with the disappointing readability of the Touch screen.
I for one find the album art a gimmick and would far prefer to do away
with that for a larger font I can read from 4m plus away. And why do I
need to see three song titles at once ? My SB3 was perfectly adequate
showing one

Can the Seagate Go Portable be powered by an ac/dc adaptor or powered
