Sound quality is/has never been affected by the server version ,it not the server that plays the music it is the players. The whole squeezebox architechture is such that the server hardware OS and squeezeboxserver version etc does not matter in this regard . However i find the latest 7.8 beta very stable , and its more compatible with the plugins mysqueezebox.com and varius services contains some fixes for more modern OS. Worth turning off in >7.6 is the built in dlna/upnp plugin and photo and media/video scanning. It was concieved to save the now defunct Logitech Revue google TV thing . This functionality adds nothing in a squeezebox context ,but as it can be turned of and not used it does not add any bloat There is a big jump here LMS is using SQLite instead of MySQL and may be a bit pickier about tags , if it does not work rigth of a clean install migth do it . You can usually upgrade without problem ,but the likelihood that the upgrade process itselfs fail is greater if you go from a 5 year old version to todays version ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98793 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
