Fwiw, I'm easily running 4 players off the latest SqueezeCenter and an old-ish Ubuntu (7.04 - if it ain't broke and all that).
I am intrigued by your playlist problems. You say that it's not saving to your target playlist directory, but is it saving them somewhere else, or not saving them at all? If it's not saving them at all, then you probably don't have the permissions set properly. The user that SC is running under (usually user 'squeezecenter' needs to have rw access to that directory and files). On the deletion problem, are you saying that it is deleting (1) track references from the playlist file itself when it can't find the tracks, (2) deleting them from the active playlist, (3) deleting them from the library database, or (4) something else? To me, (2) and (3) seem like perfectly logical behavior, because what's it supposed to play if the track isn't there, or how is it supposed to keep a reasonable database if it can't delete tracks that aren't in the library any longer (even if temporarily)? If you mean (1), then that is really bizarre behavior and I would agree that it shouldn't be doing that. Also, you might want to scan the forums about the apparamor stuff -- I have seen a lot of posts on the topic but haven't paid any attention to them because it's not an issue with Ubuntu 7.04. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49114 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
