I am not really asking for DLNA specifically. I suggested it as an example, the real goal is to get rid of SBS (especially of the necessity of the scan) SBS is not reliable enough, each software upgrade comes with countless problems for many people. It is not a finish nor enough tested product in my opinion. I was really interested in the Touch with TinySBS. The most stupid thing is that I think that fixing this bug http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=16564 (I called that a bug, not a enhancement, because it makes TinySBS almost unusable) would make it an acceptable solution. The real pity is that nobody will ever make me believe it is so simple and straightforward to implement. I cannot understand how beta tester could spend a few days (I would say a few hours) with TinySBS without figuring out that this feature is mandatory. Like a lot of people, you are telling about plugins. Well, plugins are fine, but I don't want to have to install a plugin to get basic straightforward behavior. The biggest problem with SBS is that you cannot get rid of the scan process. When I have a computer available, I should obviously be able to play a specific file manually chosen without scanning. Check MediaMonkey, you can make whatever you want. Basic and instant playing is simple and straightforward with it, even if there a possibility to scan a browse a library. This basic and simple behavior is simply NOT POSSIBLE with SBS ... -- nicolas75 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ nicolas75's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15823 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90063 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
