+1 on using VMWare Fusion to run dbPoweramp.

I haven't fully set this up yet, as I've only just completed my re-rip
into FLAC earlier this week... But my plan for iPod consumption is to
sync with MediaMonkey, which will convert from FLAC to whatever
compatible format of choice in real-time. So it will take forever to
sync, but you don't incur the space penalty of multiple file formats on
your main storage. This worked for me on a trial run several months ago.
I need to get after it again now that I'm all FLAC on the server. :)

Re: [slim] [ANNOUNCE] Squidget - A SqueezeBox Widget for Android

2011-04-13 Thread whoosh

Just bought and installed this. This is a very nice widget - perfect for
quick control of your Squeezeboxen.

One thing I did notice is when going into Favorites, and then choosing
the "On MySqueezebox.com" option, it seems to just start playing one of
your sb.com favorites, rather than presenting a menu to make a choice
from the options there.

Other than that, working very well on Motorola Atrix 4G. :)

has worked flawlessly since. Sorry you are in an abyss of pure hell - my
experience has been quite the opposite. Perhaps your ebay seller gave
you a bad example.
