Just a plain old cheap linux box: a $200 Dell (with a drive I stole from another machine). 2.4G celeron, but only 128M. Of course nothing else runs on the box. And, yes, I have album art (and am actually pretty anal about it, resorting at time to just taking a picture of the cover myself). Album art is in cover.jpg and a scaled 150x150 thumb.jpg (a silly script makes those so I always have a prescaled version). The NAS drive probably adds a bunch of latency... all my files are local. Files are a mix of mp3 and flac, depending on how much I think quality matters. If I undo a hack with MusicMagic that I am playing with, it takes about an hour to do a full scan... but then, that's why I fiddled with MusicMagic's importer... I am not sure it is entirely correct what I did so I wont say that it is a fix.... but it seems to be: i havent found anything I broke terribly. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31095 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
