This is good to know. Thanks for the info. The Pi4/8Gb may be a good
alternative too. Or whatever is available in the future

Well maybe I should prepare for this RPI route too. But I don't have
very high expectations about how the RPi can handle a database of 100K
tracks...


Ping forum member pommes (I believe) who's running a 200k tracks 
collection on a Pi. He was facing some issues with a 3B (1GB RAM) and 
the maximum memory option in LMS. The scanner kept crashing, most likely 
as it run out of memory. He's now using a Pi4 with 8GB, if I'm not 
mistaken :-).

Well maybe I should prepare for this RPI route too. But I don't have
very high expectations about how the RPi can handle a database of 100K
tracks... 

My setup is also fairly basic - but I recently found out that I am very
fond of the three plugins for Spotify, MixCloud and Bandcamp.. Don't use
them too much but immediately missed them when they were gone. (Spotty
most of these)

Synology just as an nas

Thanks for the reply. I managed to install the package update and it did
without any problem! I was just (too) insecure - I'm not ready to part
from my squeezeboxes yet ;-)

Never had any problem with any packages,so I call it safe
If you open the link, you see on top an link to OLD holding version back
to 7.9.2 so rollback shall be easy if needed

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Updating LMS package on Synology to v 8.0? Is it safe?

2020-12-21 Thread SlimPvC


Since Synology, unfortunately, stopped their support for the Logitech
Media Server on their NAS (like my DS218+), I'm considering to upgrade
the package to the version found here: 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/lmsupdate/files/DSM6.x/

But I'm hesitant to upload this package: how can I roll back to the
existing package is anything fails? I see no option to backup / export
the original 7.9.2.package (Hyper Backup backup the data folders,
application but not the packages?). Since Synology removed the package
from the Beta section I will probably not be able to install it again...


So I have two questions:

- is it safe to simply upload the 8.0.0 x86_64 package to the Synology
NAS; will it overwrite the existing package or create a new one?
- what's the best way to 'roll-back' (is there a way to export or backup
a single package)?

Hope anyone can be of help.. 

Thanks in advance, 
Peter
