I freely admit I don't understand what's going on with the permissions for squeezeboxserver. I had all sorts of problems with local player and LMS at first, only resolved by adding the squeezeboxserver to the audio and to my own user group, and creating a home directory for squeezeboxserver.
My suspicion is that I had to create a home directory because I needed to add my own user group to squeezeboxerver so it could access all my music (owned by me as a user so that other programs can access it as well). The home directory seems not to be needed if the only group is 'nogroup'. I initially had to add audio to get a full list of devices in the local player GUI, but I suspect this may not be necessary. If someone out there understands how all these things inter-relate and would summarise it, that would help some who are getting stuck. LMS 7.9 on VortexBox Midi running Xubuntu 14.04, FLACs 16->24 bit, 44.1->192kbps. Wired Touch + EDO, coax to Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC. Wireless Xubuntu 14.04 laptop controls LMS via Chromium. Meridian Explorer USB DAC to listen via Squeezelite on Vortexbox & other PCs as required. Spare Touch in loft. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97766 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
