Thanks -- sorry for the quasi-duplicate postings, I'm just trying to
figure out what the different apps do.  I'm not sure why one would want
a PC to emulate a squeezebox, so I thought maybe I'd misunderstood the
functionality of Squeezelite.

I have the most current build of LMS, with wave input enabled, and as I
noted in the other post, the problem with the wave input plugin (at
least according to the link above) is that it relies on a recording
device (audio ouput?) in Windows called "stereo mix" that has been
removed from most modern Windows systems (including mine).   There are
some third party versions of stereo mix, but they don't work on all
Windows systems or all sound cards (mine included).

So, if wave input doesn't rely on stereo mix, or there's another way to
connect the PC audio stream to LMS and other folks have it working on
their Windows 10 machines, please let me know!  I can't seem to find any
recent info on the Windows version of the app in this forum.

thx!
