I'm inclined to think, after a week of usage, that Squeezebox's Slimserver is 99% there. In other words, late beta - but not *quite* ready for prime time, since not all the features work reliably.
I didn't have any connectivity or network problems, but software has intermittent problems playing supported file types like AIFF. Since I have tons of storage space, I had planned to rip all my cds into AIFFs and store on my HDDs, but I'm kind of on "hold" with that, until I get an answer back from slimserver tech support as to why it can read .WAV files fine, but only about 90% of .AIFF files in the SAME directory! For comparison, I've been using Winamp since 1998, and never ONCE has Winamp failed to play an uncorrupted file of any type. Yet this is a frequent, recurring problem with the Slimserver software. -- Cleve Two-channel system; McIntosh MC2205 amplifier McIntosh MAC4100 receiver Klipsch CF-4 speakers Denon DR-M3 Cassette Deck ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cleve's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2048 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=17864 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
