My server is a single core Atom N270 pc, dedicated for Squeezecenter.
But I don't like to work with it like a browser. After each click a new
page has to be loaded, and that is a waste of time.
It works good for doing configuration things but i.m.o. not for
browsing and selecting music.

Squeezeplay does emulate the SB interface but it is strange for me
while having a keyboard you cannot press "S" to go to the first title
beginning with an "S". Besides of that I want to use the screen of my
laptop for the playlist and many other things. I played with a Linn DS
streamer with an iPad app and it worked just better. And I know, there
are always people who are used to work with the 4 arrow keys for
navigation and won't need anymore than that. And people who swear at
the SB classic with the 1 row of text display, but not for me.
I respect people who just want it the way Logitech developed it.

But for people like me who want fast and convenient selecting music
while having now playing visible, I ask if there are other programs.
But I guess not.

In the mean time I installed Whitebear, and tried Foobar with upnp
plugin. Browsing was slow I guess because the database wasn't cached
locally.

But if that is the way to go let me know which program would be better.
With a normal modern graphical intuitive clean interface.

I don't have an iPad otherwise it would be much easier.
