I just upgraded the LMS 7.9 server to Ubuntu 15.04. The SB Boom unable
to display Chinese Character anymore. The Boom still able to display
Chinese font when connect to MSB.com. What settings need to be done to
fix this problem? Thanks

True. Actually, with a few small changes the GPM Plugin does function.
But it's getting more "patchworky" and once the API implements new
features...
Well never mind. Enough OT here... ☺

Yes, I could certainly try that, as I have a laptop win computer

By the way, garym, I'm also running my main LMS on a Vortexbox, but I'm
also running another LMS server on my Windows computer, which is where I
have the Waveinput plugin installed.

Right. Waveinput is listed under 3rd party plugins in the LMS server
settings. You need to check "Show all 3rd party plugins" to see it.
Once you've added it, it becomes just another input that you can use for
your Squeezebox ecosystem.

install the Wavinput plugin on your computer (that's also running LMS)
and then you can stream the output of the sirius playing on computer to
your Squeezebox. I played around with this years ago to try and play

I completely understand. I just thought it wouldn't hurt to ask. If you
manage to get the Chromecast Audio working, then that would pretty much
make the Play Music app superfluous anyway... 😊

Just in case you are looking for one more challenge besides this, you
could always look into the Google Play Music Plugin here on LMS. It's
currently not being maintained, since Hechtus doesn't have the time.

I can't see the point of this device. It's too tied to Google Play. They
are not going to allow that to change.
A Raspberry Pi with Hifiberry DAC+ seems far more suited but if you want
a consumer thingy then an Amazon Fire with SB Player seems the best bet
to me as long as you have an HDMI Receive
I don't subscribe to Sirius, but if you have both LMS and the Sirius
player on your computer, couldn't you just use the Waveinput plugin in
LMS to send the feed to your Squeezebox players?

As above..
been working A-ok up till this evening when the remote didn't change
anything on my Transporter's display.
I Xlink reset it "just in case" and I was able to step through the setup
menu with the remote.
So the sensor was fine.
Still unresponsive after Xlink reset, so used onboard button

For the second part, streaming right to Chromecast, no modifications or

basically that comes as a "free extra".

I'm sort of hoping for a dual-purpose use of the Chromecast.
Use it as a Player with LMS for regular stuff, like webradio or local
content where the LMS Server - Client setup is best suited, and cast
directly to the Chromecast Audio from within a supported app for stuff
like Play Music that isn't
