1. It doesn't really matter that much between SD or USB 2. NO It will always be a bit clunky running Tiny LMS on the Touch. I'm pretty sure that every time you switch over to it, it will need to do a complete rescan of the SD/USB, which will take time and not allow you to listen while it is scanning. Plus you lose most if not all plugin capability, and no WEB UI, and I'm not sure but would assume that probably means control plugins like iPeng. What you want to do as far as segregating the "favorite albums" you might be able to do with Erland's Custom Browse plugin, which could give you that view without the penalty of the limitations of Tiny LMS, which can still be a bit buggy and picky about SD/USB cards & drives. I would check the 3rd party software section for the thread for it and ask, as I don't use that. -- rayman1701 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rayman1701's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41326 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93845 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
