The only way to play music off your Squeezeboxserver (and it truly does not matter which platform the SBS itself runs on) on any computer-based client is via the Softsqueeze-etc client software. And support on any Linux-based system for these "soft" players is pretty much non-existent these days, which is a shame. I have often stated I would *pay* for a soft client, and yet it seems to be something that unfortunately is not a development focus. So I think you expect something that was implicitly sold to many of us: open source, flexibility, soft players... it *should* work. It is a shame it doesn't quite. Even when you get it to work it will not quite synch right very often. I have given up for now, shame. I truly think it a major differentiator for the SB concept that is being neglected. -- pablolie ...pablo Server: Shuttle X27D - Ubuntu 8.04LTS - SBS 7.4.1 Sources: SB3 (3), SB Boom (3), Duet, Accuphase DP65v CD Amplifier: Accuphase E306v - Creek OBH21/22 Loudspeakers: Ceeroy 3-way tower (tuned) - Audioengine 5/S8 - Acoustic Energy Aego M Headphones: Grado SR-1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72348 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
