Re: [slim] NAS SSD Drive...?
Thanks for sharing this, I hadn't seen that thread. One should note that is for FULL scans which, to me, seem hardly necessary to do regularly. Do you expect similar improvement for regular (i.e., update) scans? Yes, update scans did improve as well, at least when running the external scanner (which in 7.9 is true most of the time). Lastly, and most importantly, I don't fully understand why people care about scan performance at all. Why don't people schedule full scans for times you don't need to access the system? Because if your system takes 14h for a full scan (as mentioned in that other thread), then it's hard to find that time. And because I want to run the scan NOW, and I want it do be done NOW, too :-). In summary, I think spending time and money towards improving scan time give you little bang for your buck. Now comes the interesting question: where would you like to see the bucks spent? -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Logitech Announces New Line of Squeezebox Hardware Players
Gary this is evil - I believe it for a good 10 seconds.

Re: [slim] What is this SqueezeboxControllerApp?
Thanks! I still use Squeeze Commander. In opinion, it's the best so far. I have tested Orange Squeeze, doesn't work for me, I don't understand the concept. I also tested some others (not Squeeze Ctrl.), but Squeeze Commander just covers all the features I need. andifor's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103442 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

More a wish list than an April fools day joke eh Gary? ;) For me, now that I can make a pretty decent headless player with a Raspberry Pi, I2S DAC and a pretty case - all for less than £100 ($150) - I don't think I would ever spend more money than that on a streamer again. If I were really into hi-fi and wanted the best possible sound I might spend the money on an external DAC which is where the real audible differences are made, rather than the streamer which simply decodes network 1s and 0s and turns them into a form that a DAC can decode.

But for some, the additional ingredient is the mysqueezebox.com in the background. Without this, things like Pandora and SiriusXM won't work. ickStream is helping in some regard with some services. For me, all I care about is SiriusXM, because my wife listens to a lot of its Public Radio channels.
