To answer your specific question - yes LMS should be able to see your music via nfs Mount. Remember the playlist folder needs to be writable. Permissions are the only real issue operating in this mode but once you understand whats going on with users etc and why then its a piece of .... I have a Vortexbox 2.4 running on an HP54 with a single SSD but which reads and writes to my 4 bay QNAP. I dont run subsonic or mad sonic but I do run both LMS and Plex on the HP with all files stored on NAS. A Pi running PiCorePlayer with files on NAS is also a realistic way of operating but I found the Pis networking capability to be a bit borked from time to time when operating a number of players in sync and therefore prefer the processing power of a proper PC VB2.4[/B] STORAGE *QNAP TS419P (NFS) [B]Living Room* - Joggler & SB3 -> Onkyo TS606 -> Celestion F20s *Office* - Pi3+Sreen -> Sony TAFE320 -> Celestion F10s / Pi2+DAC & SB3 -> Onkyo CRN755 -> Wharfedale Modus Cubes *Dining Room* -> SB Boom *Kitchen* -> UE Radio (upgraded to SB Radio) *Bedroom (Bedside)* - Pi2+DAC ->ToppingTP21 ->AKG Headphones *Bedroom (TV)* - SB Touch ->Sherwood AVR ->Mordaunt Short M10s Everything controlled by iPeng ------------------------------------------------------------------------ d6jg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109946
