I hoped somebody would see this new feature... but oh well, I'll ask you to comment on it :-)
I've added a way to play music files from your computer by dropping them on the web UI's right hand side panel. This would be one way to play your music if you preferred browsing your collection in Windows Explorer or the Mac's Finder (please let me know whether this works on desktop Linux, too). Grab a bunch of files, drop them to the browser window, and they'll be played. If they're available from LMS, those files will be used. Otherwise the browser will send the files to the server to be played through your Squeezebox. [image: http://www.herger.net/slim-plugins/dnd.gif] There are a few caveats: - Currently you can't play files larger than 100MB if they're not on the server already. - I've had mixed results with MSIE 11... - Playing files which are not on your LMS machine already will store them in your cache folder. While that folder is being cleaned up regularly (files removed once they're no longer queued up on any player), you could potentially bring your server to a halt if your cache folder was on a small partition, or if you decided to queue up dozens of 100MB files. - Please give it a try and let me know what you think about it. Have fun!
