One piont of an sbs server is also to *not* have it in the stereo rack it's elsewhere providing music over the network to all your squeezeboxes.
Touch with it's on-board server can do that to: But: With an whirring usb drive besides it ? No transcoding for the older players (not squeezeplay based): Meaning for example some formats like 24/96 flac or alac won't play on all players, some radio stations won't sound either. No web-UI: Web-UI is nice if you want use access the server from all your computers. An adjust settings browsing music or build playlists in an more convient manner than from the player or remote. The onboard "Tiny sbs" on touch has less setting thus is less flexible. No plugins. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: SB3 (soon to replaced by a Touch :) It is on preorder) Bedroom/Office: Boom Kitchen: Receiver (soon to be replaced by my SB3 and the SBR to be stuffed in a box in the attic ) Miscellaneous use: Radio (battery pack to be ordered) I use a Controller various ir-remotes and a Eee-PC with squeezeplay to control this ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76721 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
