Just found this thread - yet again Mr Herger to the rescue! Currently have two Duet's streaming to amplifier/speaker setups in kitchen and living room. I am using my Squeezeboxes for: 1. Library of FLAC files from my Synology NAS (where LMS is installed) 2. BBC iPlayer Radio and 3. Spotify.
As a Spotify "family" member I have 5 users here all with a lot invested in Spotify so I would be loathe to lose it completely when Libspotify goes. Everybody here is quite happy with the Michael's current implementation of the "official" LMS Spotify app combined with the Spotify protocol handler, so if librespot can replace the SPH bit seamlessly then I will be very happy. Not bothered about the Spotify Connect thing - and not sure what it adds over the official LMS system. My fall-back position when Libspotify goes is to put a Chromecast Audio dongle on a second input into each amplifier, just for Spotify, but that would require physically switching inputs. Neither amp has a remote so that would be less than ideal and would require the use of a phone app. This family still mainly use the two Controllers for initiating existing playlists and saved albums and it is usually a touch quicker, strangely, than finding the phone, swiping, entering a PIN code and initiating the app. Matt SQUEEZEBOXES:[/B] TWO SB DUETS (LIVING ROOM AND KITCHEN) AND A *'PICOREPLAYER' (HTTPS://SITES.GOOGLE.COM/SITE/PICOREPLAYER/HOME) [b]Server:* Synology DS214 (2TB) NAS running LMS 7.9 *Network:* TP-Link Archer VR200 router, Draytek Vigor 130 VDSL modem, TP-Link access point *Livingroom:* Receiver, Linn LP12, Naim 72/Hi-cap/110/Headline amp, B&W CM2 speakers *Kitchen:* Receiver, Topping TP20 Mk2 Class T amp, B&W 686 speakers ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TheLastMan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16021 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105968 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
