Hi,
I`m sure it's probably something I`m doing wrong.
But with Squeezeplay 7.8.0 r413 installed on my surface pro running Win
8.1, it runs, but when I select the Sirius XM app, I get the message
that it can`t play that type of file. It works on all my squeezebox
radios.
Also having issues with
We have several squeezeboxes in our home. Now our 5 year old daughter
has it's own Squeezebox radio too (her CD player got broken, so I
thought to give it a try). The SB radio works fine for her, but I would
find it better to have only the children music on her device. Is this
possible without

Sounds good, thank you! The problem is that genre is not maintained

Mp3tag is a tool I know that many Squeezebox users are very fond of -
myself included. Easy to use and some very advanced possibilities for
for working with files and tags in batches.
A good forum also with a lot of very useful info.

If you can access the children's music folder from a windows machine you
could use MP3Tag to change/add a Children's Music genre to all music in
that folder with a single action.

Just wondering how much a processor/memory is used by LMS? Will
upgrading motherboard, memory, etc/ make any difference to LMS? Meaning
if I go from single core to quad core processor or from 1Gb RAM to 16Gb
make much difference to how LMS operates? What is the sweet spot if
anyone knows?

Hi. I'm running Vortexbox on a DIY PC with an AMD Athlon processor and
1Gb RAM, so it's a Fedora 20 kernel and LMS 7.8. My library is about
1.4Tb on a 2Tb drive but that's probably not really pertinent to my
question. It's not that I think anything is necessarily slow, it's just

I am interested in this project but will be waiting until I can buy a
complete finished item from a single source. I believe that means I'm
waiting for version 2.
I currently use a Duet Receiver on cabled ethernet behind the TV

Even though LMS is single threaded, having at least two cores provides
the OS and other processes some breathing room. 2GB of RAM seems to be
plenty, even for my sizable collection.
The single biggest improvement I have seen is to replace the system disc

Based on the library size in TB I suspect you have a decent amount of
tracks and might be affected by this change if it succeeds.

Ever since my music collection got to over 100k and more, I've been
searching for optimizations.
I've had a Pentium processor, an i3, an i5, and currently an i7.
I've had a plain hard drive for most of the setups until I got the i5;
on that platform I installed and used a RAM disc because the
