Hi all I decided to start a new thread as the original thread *preparing

Sorry- one more question:
I assume that the Harmony does not offer the full Controller command
menu. Can somebody tell me if "favorites" or "playlist" selection is
possible using the Harmony? I know I can use iPeng, but I'd like to
simplify this setup for other household members. Thanks again.

AFAIK there is an official case for the 7" - but there's no room for a
sound card/DAC. Then there is another case for the screen where the Pi
board sits on the back without casing. That works with DACs.
The latter look like this:

Thanks for the reply - so I need a Max2play case to incorporate the pi +
screen + screen card + dac card ?

Where do you see the counts ? Do you have a program installed for PDF's
? I assume you have checked where you told the app to save the program ?
I know, stupid questions but details help.

no
Long shot but I had big network problems and it turned out my TV was
causing the upnp on lms to overload the network. .so I turned off upnp
in the lms plugins and no more issues
Worth a look

Thanks for the suggestions.
Yes, never had any errors with local streaming. And I'm using Devolo
Homeplug, not wireless. Network Diagnostics does show the ISP traffic
light turn from green to red sometimes, and then back to green in a
short or long time (never any need to reboot router/modem).
Any update on this?

The Harmony system still is one way only: you can only send commands to
your system, but it can't interact with it. There's no such thing as
browse menus on the Harmony, because it can't receive that data.

It might be worth a shot, but why not reset the router and reboot the
modem sometime.
You could also ask the ISP if there is a firmware upgrade available
(presuming the kit is their issue).

Hi.
There are several DAC options for you to choose from - also it depends
whether you want optical out, analog out or an integrated amplifier.

Some more reading -

I just ordered one of these -
I'd suggest having a look at the shairtunes2 plugin from disaster123.
That will make SBes to AirPlay devices.

That sounds like a possibility, and I see there are other suggestions.
