Maybe your wife's LMS server is version 7.7.1? OK to have multiple servers (and just use switch library to move from one to the other). But easier if both are using the same version of LMS (e.g., 7.7.2). Regarding the online LMS server (mysqueezebox.com), you are correct. You NEVER need to connect to it as long as you are running one of your local servers. It is useful for folks that don't want to run a local server (but of course they are then limited to internet radio and online music services (MOG, Pandora, etc.). You do need to enter your "mysqueezebox.com" credentials, even in your own local LMS server, as this is what allows your server to talk with services such as Pandora, MOG, Spotify, SiriusXM, etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94828 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
