You're welcome. Using jails does require some understanding of FreeBSD as compared to say using a docker app in linux which is more play n play. That was actually done on FreeNAS rather than Nas4Free. I've just checked it still works, and with a minor tweak it does. But on FreeNAS the jail was based on a FreeBSD 11.2 release, which is why you might need to update your Nas4Free install. If the prospect of doing that might break things like their jail system (the BigOne?), the idea of a combined server/player based on a raspberry pi becomes very attractive rather than wrestling with Nas4Free for now. But it's worth thinking about when & with what you replace your N36L with. This link has already been posted: https://www.picoreplayer.org/landingzone_option2.html and there are comprehensive help pages: https://www.picoreplayer.org/main_getting_started.shtml A common hardware config is to have either an amplifier or digital output HAT to added the rpi in order to connect to existing hifi, either direct to speakers or to an external DAC. The 'hifiberry' (https://www.hifiberry.com/shop/) and 'iquadio' (http://iqaudio.co.uk/) products lines are just of two of the popular choices of kit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Krisbee's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109446 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
