I think the bit you (and lots of new users) are missing is that there are 3 distinct sources of music/internet radio on the TOUCH. They are: 1. mysqueezebox.com (no computer needed for this) 2. local version of SqueezeboxServer (SbS) running on your PC/MAC etc. 3. Local version of SbS running on your Touch (Called tinySbS or tinySC). This is a "reduced" version of SbS. No computer needed for this (the TOUCH is the computer in this case). You tell your TOUCH which of these you want it to connect to. And yes, it would be simpler if you could set your favorites up once and have any of the three sources use it. The good news is that recent versions of SbS at least now ADDITIONALLY show you "favorites on mysqueezebox.com" under the heading of Favorites when running SbS (option 2 above). So you can see them there. You might want to go to: mysqueezebox.com, login to your account, select the Favorites tab, and add all your favorites there as well. Trust me, you'll eventually figure this out and it will work smoothly! -- garym ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79412 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
