[slim] I wonder why...DNLA

2010-06-04 Thread sSNICKERSs

I wonder why, Squeezebox are not DNLA compliant as other wifi radios
(and cheaper one...).
It would be so simple not to have to switch between mysB.com and server
modes
Nowdays, even TV set are DNLA compliant...

Does anyone know why ?

DLNA is pretty limited, we can do a lot more things with our own server.
That said, it is something I'd like to see us do someday, but it's not
been a priority.

DLNA support could be added through a plugin, I even started working on
one myself, but it's a large job and I don't have the tuits to work on
it right now.

What does this do for you? If you really need it, install a Vortexbox
instance since I see the new release (today 1.4) supports it.

I don't have to switch modes at all: If I want pandora or rhapsody
(etc.,) I just select it..

real stereo doesn't wake neighbors (it enrages them)

my music is NOT transient. i want everything all the time and that is
what squeeze WAS all about.

DLNA is much inferior and currently doesn't support most of the features
that make the Squeezebox an interesting device:

- (usable) remote control
- synchronization
- gapless playback
- extensibility

It's no surprise that cheap radios support it, that's what it is: an
interface for cheap radios.

...and the pointy-haired boss is forcing to put your round tuits into a
square hole?  (Don't answer that!)
