I took the plunge and upgraded to 7.4. One stated objective of this version is to make the ecosystem easier to understand but I have to say I'm more confused than ever. Here's a couple of questions to help me understand:
1. What's the difference between the built-in functions, apps and plug-ins? It seems to me that there's a huge overlap in functionality here. For example I can get internet radio stations through the built-in menu structure, or I can add say the BBC App, or I could install the iPlayer plugin. What's the advantage/disadvantage of each method? If you're trying to simplify things for consumers why have all these different ways of doing the same thing? 2. What happens to menu items I remove from the home menu? I want to keep my home menu simple so everyone in the family can get straight to the important stuff like the music library, favourites and radio. But I still want to be able to get to everything else in a sub-menu somewhere. It seems to me that editing the home menu and removing something removes it from the hierarchy altogether. What we need is the ability to structure multiple levels of menu so we can get rid of the stuff we never use and demote the stuff we rarely use to a lower level while promoting the stuff we often use to the home menu. How do I do this? 3. Why do the menu options look different through the local web interface and mysqueezebox.com? On my local web I see Music Library but on mysqueezebox I see My Music. This is just more confusion. I hope someone can set me straight. I'm not stupid I just don't understand what Logitech is trying to do with all these changes. -- StuartC ------------------------------------------------------------------------ StuartC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19597 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71078 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
