Vortexbox is linux like Ubuntu, based on Fedora, it automates the ripping/tagging process and auto updates squeezecenter, it probably runs at about 75% accuracy for tagging so some manual work required but I can live with that. The idea is to run in headless as there is no GUI, I interact with it through SSH/Samba, and a bit of understanding on linux is a plus. It could be an option for you but depends on whether you are using your MiniITX box for anything over and above, email, internet etc. -- socistep ------------------------------------------------------------------------ socistep's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18860 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62458 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
