Just to update this thread on current status and my experience over the last couple of months.
The n5200 has been performing very well since version 2.00.01 of the SS module was installed. All functionality is present and performing well. Scanning, plugins (Time Date Weather, web interface, album art browsing all work with no observed problems. The responsiveness of both the web and SB interfaces is excellent including browsing with album art. Firmware updates continue to be regularly released by Thecus with a major upgrade to version 2.00 in early beta. I have not looked at this and currently have good results. The issues of access to the system thru SSH have been resolved and in fact there is a growing base of add in modules to enhance and customize the capabilities of the N5200 including PERL and Ss modules. Thecus is releasing the n5200 Pro with a upgrade to a 1.5MHz Pentium M low voltage processor and other enhancements. I have no input on whether any changes have been made which might cause issues with SS installation. Support from Thecus is not great, but the user forums are a good support group and are active and helpful. However, there does seem to be an effort to improve support from Thecus directly. I have not had a need for direct support so this is from the pulse of the forum. -- Pellicle ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pellicle's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9789 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25784 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
