I'm yet another optimist who wants to run 16,000 FLAC files off an attached USB drive. Don't want to run another PC or even a NAS for many of the same reasons that others have already stated. And it almost works, almost. I have a Seagate HDD that's been very good otherwise. TinySB takes a very long time to scan it, but then poops out. Sometimes a few tracks will show up, sometimes not, or the server crashes. I've cleaned and rescanned a few time to no avail.
So at the moment I'm running SB server on a PC and not using the USB drive. But like many here I would really love a stand alone player that also has Internet radio, Pandora, etc. I will reformat the drive to FAT32 (it's NTFS now) and clean up any cue or other odd files. I do embed my art in the music tracks, so we'll see if that works. Add to my optimism the fact that I want to control the touch from my laptop and either a web interface or ideally JRiver Media Player and it all becomes a real challenge. Will let you know how I get on. -- Mr. Tuesdays ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mr. Tuesdays's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=51982 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82070 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
