The world is full of amplifiers supporting network streaming, as against a few thousand unsupported logitech devices (I have no idea how many) and a few technically savvy people with wandboards, picoplayers and the like. If LMS supported people who just have network amplifiers more easily, there might be very many more users, especially those of a less technical frame of mind.

It isn't about cost, it's about totally unnecessary complexity. But I have said my piece on that more than once. LMS 7.9 on VortexBox Midi running Xubuntu 14.04, FLACs 16->24 bit, 44.1->192kbps. Wired Touch + EDO, coax to Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC. Wireless Xubuntu 14.04 laptop controls LMS via Chromium. Meridian Explorer USB DAC to listen via Squeezelite on Vortexbox & other PCs as required. Spare Touch in loft. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101622 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
